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 ninth year.
Through the various events, the PBUH ad-hoc aims to increase 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 1444H is Caravan of Love, which aims 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 1444H aimed to do achieve this on a wider scope by making the events accessible to Muslim undergraduates and staff in NUS as well as the general public, no matter where they may be in connecting themselves to the Prophet ﷺ.
LET'S LOVE
During the event at the Central Forum, there were 4 interactive booths - Sunnah Food, Sunnah Grooming, Sunnah Sports and Qasidah/Mawlid/Selawat - which managed to reach out to more than 100 NUS Muslims and non-Muslims as they learned more about the Prophet ﷺ. The interactive booth aims to share about the sunnahs of Prophet ﷺ and his practices.
There was also hijab booth in collaboration with NUS Nisaa’ and a collection booth where participants could claim a premium cookie after they attended all booths. Each booth too had something for participants to bring home such as dates, siwak and sunnah cards.
GEMS OF GUIDANCE
In this gender-segregated event led by Ustaz Abdullah and Ustazah Hidayah respectively, the PBUH 1444H team aimed
to hear stories of the seerah of the Prophet ﷺ, with particular focus on his mercy & excellence ﷺ, as well as how we can apply its lessons as students or in our various social roles.
There was also an asatizah-led reflection sharing session to learn from others and to facilitate a sense of ownership of what we learned. This event offers a more close and intimate session for the participants to share their perspectives in a safe environment and learn from the Asatizah that were invited.
PATH TO GOODNESS
(COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT PROJECT)
The Community Involvement Project, in partnership with Jamiyah Home for the Aged, was means to emulate what we learnt about the Prophet ﷺ in our prior event by exercising mercy and compassion to disadvantaged groups beyond NUSMS and inculcating a spirit of giving forward.
We picked Home for the Aged because the elderly are generally a disadvantaged group and giving our efforts to do something for them is a form of khidmah (service) that was taught to us by the Prophet ﷺ. The participants this time were small in number as it is a semi-closed event, one that includes our own committee as well as some members from another adhoc in MS.
The Grand Finale: A Celebration of Our Beloved ﷺ
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 by our own NUS Brothers. 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.
