Salam alaikum sisters and brothers, I hope you all are having easy Ramadan
but i need suggestions on a topic for a Halaqa,i was selected to host a Halaqa and i need to pick a topic, i want something that i feel everyone can benefit, so do anyone have suggestions
Mashaa Allah, this is a good invitation for every one to think for himself about issues that matter.
Here is my suggestion: how about the traits of "Ibadu Ar-Rahaman" or Servants of the Mercy-Giving? Sura No 25, Al-Furqan or the Criterion in its last portion of verses ennumerate traits and behaviours of those servants of their Lord, from verse 63 to verse 77 ( end of th sura):
In the name of Allah the Most Merciful, the Mercy-Giving
63 and the Mercy-giving's servants who walk modestly on earth and peacefully say: "How do you do!" whenever ignorant men address them; who spend the night bowing down on their knees and standing before their Lord; and who say:
65.
"Our Lord, ward off Hell's torment
from us! Its torment is atrocious;
it is such an evil residence and station;"
67. who when they spend, give neither too lavishly nor yet hold back and keep to a happy medium;
68. who do not appeal to any other deity besides God [Alone]; nor kill any soul whom God has forbidden [them to] except through [due process of] law; nor misbehave sexually.
Anyone who does so will incur a penalty. Torment will be doubled for him on Resurrection Day and he will remain disgraced for ever in it, except for someone who repents and believes, and acts in a honorable manner. God will replace their evil deeds with fine ones, since God is Forgiving, Merciful.
71. Anyone who repents and acts honorably should turn to God in repentance,
72. and those who will not bear false witness, and when they pass by [people] gossiping, pass by in a dignified manner,
73. who whenever they are reminded of their Lord's signs, do not fall down deaf and blind [when reminded] of them;
74. and [rather] who say: "Our Lord, bestow the comfort of our eyes on us in our spouses and our offspring. Make us a model for those who do their duty."
75. Those will be rewarded with the Mansion because they have been so patient, and welcomed there with greetings as well as "Peace [be on you]!", to live there for ever. How fine is such a residence and status!
77. SAY: "My Lord will never care about you unless you appeal to Him. Yet since you have rejected [Him], something else will be necessary.
Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
