fitDeen

About fitDeen

fitDeen is an outdoor-based adhoc under NUSMS, started by like-minded NUS students aiming to bridge spirituality with a shared passion for adventure and exploration. We hope to inspire greater God-consciousness within the NUS community through outdoor reflections.

Guided by the direction Path Back Home, fitDeen AY24/25 focused on navigating life’s obstacles and exploring ways to realign ourselves with the right path in pursuit of His Pleasure.

Events (AY24/25)

Water: Journey to a Pure Heart

The first step on the Path Back Home begins with the purification of both body and soul. Emphasising reflection and istiqamah (steadfastness) in maintaining consistency in our faith, actions and commitment to Allah s.w.t.'s guidance, we explored water in its many forms — from its role in wudhu’ (ablution) to its symbolic link to renewal and inner cleansing. This first installation highlighted how water purifies not only our physical selves but also our hearts and spirits.

Sky: The Ascent

The Path Back Home is rarely straightforward. In our second installation, we looked to the Wonders of the Sky, reflecting on the profound lessons from Isra’ Miraj, the Night Journey of Rasulullah s.a.w. Through this testament to Allah s.w.t.’s greatness, we sought to deepen our humility and tawakkal (trust), while nurturing istiqamah (steadfastness) and faith to guide us through life’s ups and downs.

Earth: Journey Beyond

The final installation of the path back home Explores our Existence through 3 Phases – Life on Earth as a Khalifah, the Unseen Transition in the Alam Barzakh and the Ultimate Reward of Jannah. Through activities that encourage reflection of how actions shape the afterlife, we draw connections between the wonders of this world and Jannah’s promised rewards, inspiring participants to strive in the path of Allah s.w.t., in order to lead lives as Khalifahs wisely.

Kampong fitDeen: Waves of Change

fitDeen believes that nature is more than just a backdrop, but a powerful medium for Reflection, Growth and Strengthening our Connection with Allah s.w.t. Through contemplation of His creations and engaging in the Sunnah of reflection, we cultivate Taqwa (God-Consciousness). To embody this, we embarked on a beach clean-up to embody our responsibility as Khalifah fil Ardh (stewards of the Earth), aiming to encourage and recognise that caring for the environment is an act of faith and a reflection of our mindfulness.

(Do note that the focus of events tend to differ as it is dependent on the Adhoc's theme for that year)

Why Join Us?

fitDeen is for anyone who loves the outdoors and wants to grow in God-consciousness while appreciating His creations. Through our adventures, we nurture mindfulness through the awareness of God and self-awareness of the heart and mind, while creating beautiful memories with like-minded and inspiring individuals.
