Ustazah Nazeerah believes in being a friend-cum-guider rather than a literal teacher in the journey of educating and moulding her students.

Walking past a shop, you witness a heated argument between elderly and, adult - throwing vulgarities and indecent remarks about how they are burden to each other. You found out after that they are mother and son.

During a visiting to a friend at the hospital - another friend of yours started to whisper about how messy the sick is, while he/she is laying down resting, in front of both of you.

It goes on and, on in your head until you realize something and asked yourself - “Does Islam not teach us about adab?”

In one of the hadiths, Prophet s.a.w. mentioned that one of the main purposes for his appointment as a prophet is to perfect the moral character of the people = Adab. 

Prophet Muhammad s.a.w said:

“I was sent to perfect good character.” [Sahih Muslim]

The Prophet s.a.w also said:

“The most perfect/complete believers in faith is he who is the best of them in manners.” [Sunan At-Tirmizi]

Based on these 2 hadiths, Ustazah Nazeerah is excited to explore with you, on how we can further enhance our Adab while living our everyday lives. 

By referring to the contents of the Quran and sayings of the Prophet s.a.w on Adab or good character, we will find that morality is highly regarded in Islam. This also shows that morality is deeply rooted in the principles of faith. 

The Islamic moral system encompasses every aspect of life, including one’s affairs and relationship with the self, others and ultimately with The Creator.

Therefore, having good morals will benefit us in ways that strengthen our faith.

Join us, as we enter the new year of 2025 with a better version of ourselves - not only with better knowledge, but better personality and adab!
