7. Sample of Students' Testimonies

“Ustaz, you are being modest to name your course simple as “Fardhu ‘Ain for Beginners”. After attending this course, I would vouch that this course is indeed profound and inspirational, even for me who is a born-Muslim and a parent. My boys who attended the course with me have been positively transformed. Thank you Ustaz.”

“I must admit that the course being called Fardhu ‘Ain did not attract me at first. In fact, it even misled me to think that this is somewhat like any usual religious classes. AlhamdulilLah, after attending this, I must admit it was most enlightening and something I really needed. Never knew that I do not really know much about my religion as an adult before this.”

“The class module bears a title too humble, "Beginners Course to Islam"-Fardhu Ain in English. My perception earlier was that this is just a revision of what I have known. Well I was wrong! This is so much more! I thought i knew, and as the weeks follows, the understanding of the Arkan Al-Islam is not just doctrines which we should adhere, but a training program (to assist us) in our life-journey.”

“While the ‘arkaanul Iman & Islam' have been taught and drilled into us as students in our youth, your class breathed into them deeper meaning. Going beyond the rituals and practical aspects, your class provoked us into thinking critically the reasons behind the acts that we undertake daily in the name of Allah.”

“Your presentation of topic on Islam is indeed very different from other Ustaz's that I know… and no wonder converts who attended this session and your other classes exude such conviction and clarity when they are speaking about Islam.”

“Your course inspire students to make Islam the primary motivation for their actins in life and be better servants to Allah SWT, instead of Islam being just a troublesome ‘peripheral obligation' that many of our current youth take it to be.”

“I find that the lessons have helped me understand, appreciate and adopt a perspective more in line with Islamic teachings found in the Quran and Sunnah. AlhamdulilLah, with the knowledge gained through this course, I find myself more certain of my faith and more able to appreciate many of the prescribed rituals.”

“This approach to Fardhu ‘ain is very new and refreshing especially for a young adult like me, who looks for reason and logic behind faith.”

“... Simple language, beautiful explanation and satisfactory response to the many questions from participants.... Ustaz, your patience, calm disposition and sincerity is indeed exemplary.”

“Given Ustaz's vast experiences of engagement with non-muslims and muslims alike, you can find practical insights from him to respond the most mind blogging and tackiest questions about Islam to others and to yourself, insyaAllah.”

“The lessons may be over but the knowledge given InsyaAllah has made my perception towards understanding the meaning of Islam in a whole new level… I am beginning to understand that "A way of Life" is not just a mere declaration. It is actually "life as we live it and life as it should be lived".
