PBUH
PBUH (Peace Be Upon Him) is a yearly ad-hoc under the NUS Muslim Society. This ad-hoc was first started in 1436 Hijri, and is currently in its eighth year.
Through the various events, the PBUH ad-hoc aims to increase in knowledge about our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in various aspects, including his character, his practices, his teachings, and his sunnah as well as to instil in ourselves and spread the love for the Prophet ﷺ.
The main theme for PBUH 1443H is Our Lifeline of Love, with the intention to spread the realisation of the Prophet ﷺ as our lifeline. Him ﷺ as essential and the only path to Allah SWT. The objectives the committee has set out for the programmes centred around the aim of strengthening our personal relationship with the Prophet ﷺ.
PBUH 1443H aimed to achieve this through learning about his relation to us ﷺ, learning about the benefits of connecting ourselves to the Prophet ﷺ and learning about the sublime characteristics and traits of the Prophet ﷺ.
LET'S LOVE
An Online Initiative
Through the use of social media platforms, the online initiative included the gender-segregated telegram channel extending across the first 5 weeks of Semester 2, and the community interview which was uploaded on the PBUH Instagram page.
With the intention to engage the NUS community in reflecting on our relationship with the Prophet ﷺ and learn from one another’s experiences and perceptions, the PBUH 1443H committee formulated a platform for the public to share their personal experiences related to the Prophet ﷺ. In doing so, we aimed to gain insights on how to invoke the love for our Prophet ﷺ to the masses through the sharing of the community interview on our Instagram page.
PBUH 1443H Love Line
In Praise of Our Lifeline
In this event, we aimed to introduce Maulid Ad-Diba'i through the practice of reciting selawat كواكب in small groups and to internalise the meaning behind its recitation through the unpacking of selawat كواكب.
The intention for having this event was to allow the participants to fully immerse themselves in the beauty of the love lines, collectively reminiscing his ﷺ stories and reciting salutations upon him ﷺ. In doing so, we hoped for the event to be a source of motivation for us to continue reading it regularly with purpose. During the event, Ustaz was unable to complete his explanation of selawat كواكب given the limited time.
Moving forward, we acknowledge the need to be clear on what is to be covered during the event itself when disseminating information on the event. This is to prevent over-promising the participants prior to the event. Regardless, it was a wholesome event where participants were given the opportunity to recite selawat كواكب alongside learning the meaning of the selawat.
PBUH 1443H DAY CAMP
The PBUH Day camp, which included enjoyable and meaningful activities in the amazing race, talk by Ustaz Hafiz, gender-segregated cosy sessions with our local asatizahs, Ustazah Farhana Munshi and Habib Aydarus, and the recitation of Maulid Ad-Dhiyaul Lami’ led by Habib Aydarus.
The amazing race was intended for our participants to learn more about the Prophet ﷺ through his sirah and hadith through the different games such as the archery game where participants are tasked to solve questions pertaining the life of the Prophet ﷺ.
The talk and cosy sessions by the asatizahs concentrated on how we can strengthen our love and connection to our Prophet ﷺ. Ustaz Hafiz highlighted the role and importance of khidmah-serving as Muslim undergraduates. Habib Aydarus similarly talked about the sunnah of khidmah and emphasised the importance of appreciating and expressing our love towards our parents. He also shared his personal heart-warming experience which made us increasingly aware of the purpose of our existence.
Ustazah Farhana Munshi reminded us that in the pursuit of finding a connection and to feel the love for the Prophet ﷺ, one must be conscious of our own actions that would disrupt this connection. Love is blocked by ignorance, indifference and defiance and that we cannot fill our hearts with the light and the love of our Prophet ﷺ if we are engaging in acts that the Prophet ﷺ does not approve of.
THE GRAND FINALE
Our Lifeline of Love
The intention for the grand finale was to connect ourselves and our participants to the Prophet ﷺ through the recitation of Maulid Ad-Diba’i and a selection of Qasidahs. Through this final event, we hope to be able to embark on the final stage of fulfilling our objective of strengthening our relationship with the Beloved ﷺ by striving to love him ﷺ more than we love ourselves.
The event was also aimed to bring together members of the NUS Muslim community, especially those new to Maulid, with the blessed gathering of knowledge to gain barakah.
WHY JOIN?
أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّٰهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ ٱللَّٰهِ
I bear witness that there is no deity but God, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the messenger of God.
The significance of Rasulullah ﷺ could not be emphasized more when believing in him ﷺ is placed in the Syahada, which is the first of the Five pillars of Islam. The light of our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is already present in our hearts; it just needs to be stirred. Like a glass of chai, which has sugar at the bottom. If you stir it and drink it like this, you will taste its sweetness. If you don't stir this sugar, you won't be able to taste its sweetness. Such is the love for the Prophet ﷺ. It is present in the hearts.
With these, undergraduates who resonate the calling of spreading knowledge and loving Rasulullah ﷺ volunteered and come together to forge bonds and spearhead events that reignites the love for our prophet ﷺ, present in our hearts.
