To receive full barakah, do Pondering 1. تَدَبُّر receiving admonition 2. تَذَكُّر
Before we ponder, Let us look at Our Relationship with Qur’an Direct Personal Planned Relevant DPPR
ASK: Each verse of the Qur’an demands something from us. To fulfill it, start with supplication. EVALUATE (your past day or week in the light of that supplication) Make a PLAN of the next day / week. PROPAGATE the message (The Prophet pbuh said: Convey from me even if it is one verse). تدبُّر & تذكُّر A simple method
تدبُّر & تذكُّر : A simple method In the next slide
Check! When it comes to group or Fiqh issues or any new idea, then please check with scholars before you mention it to others or implement it. Then what is the real area for common people like us? Relationship with Allah, Following the Prophet pbuh, planning for the hereafter, Zikr, Worship, Morals, Dealings, Dawah, Preaching and Propagation, Ordering good and Stopping evil, Team spirit etc. Check
Example: تدبُّر + تذكُّر Just Prayer / supplication is not enough. One should evaluate his performance and make plans. Example: Do you think a student who just asks Allah to help him succeed is sincere if he does not follow it up with studies? The real target of this course is: تدبر +تذكر
Rights of the Qur’an Believe in it Read it Understand it Ponder its verses Act upon it Spread it
