Najia Nusrat Malik, Sadr Lajna Imaillah Ireland
On 2 February 2025, Lajna Imaillah Ireland held its National Tarbiyat Seminar at the Maryam Mosque in Galway, bringing together members from across the country for a day of spiritual learning and development. The seminar focused on the importance of salat and the Holy Quran, offering attendees a series of engaging workshops, discussions and activities designed to strengthen their faith and daily practice.
A key feature of the seminar was a structured workshop, divided into three sessions:
The first session examined the importance of worship and Quranic recitation, with references from the Holy Quran, sayings of the Holy Prophetsa and writings of the Promised Messiahas. The second session focused on the benefits of wudu and salat, both spiritually and physically. The third session provided a practical demonstration on the correct postures of salat.
A special workshop on tabligh was also held, reinforcing the Quranic commandment to spread the message of Islam. The session included guidance from the Promised Messiahas and Hazrat Khalifatul Masih Vaa. A discussion forum on Islamic morals and ethics was held, addressing the importance of upholding Islamic values when interacting with others.Throughout the day, a variety of interactive and engaging activities were organised, including craft-making sessions, quizzes and group games. Lajna members and nasirat also had the opportunity to listen to a live question and answer session held on the men’s side as part of their simultaneous Tarbiyat programme. This session allowed attendees to gain deeper insights into key Islamic teachings.
