Program Akar Ibu: Strengthening Roots for Professional Mothers
📌 The "Akar Ibu" program is designed to strengthen the foundation for Professional Mothers across roles as women, wives, and mothers.
🌱 The core values of this learning ecosystem are 5Bs: Learning ($\text{Belajar}$), Growing ($\text{Berkembang}$), Creating ($\text{Berkarya}$), Sharing ($\text{Berbagi}$), and Impacting ($\text{Berdampak}$).
💡 The program addresses the common issue of understanding theory but failing to apply it in practice, emphasizing the need for virtuous methods ($\text{cara-cara yang mulia}$).

The Importance of Adab (Etiquette/Manners)
🌳 Knowledge ($\text{Ilmu}$) is likened to a tree trunk, deeds ($\text{amal}$) are the leaves, and blessed knowledge ($\text{ilmu yang berkah}$) produces beneficial fruit (oxygen).
⚓ The foundation supporting the trunk is the root ($\text{akar}$), which is Adab, serving as the foundation for knowledge to become blessed.
🧠 Adab encompasses politeness, morals, refinement, goodness, and character, and it must precede knowledge ($\text{mendahulukan adab sebelum ilmu}$).

Benefits of Adab in Learning
🤝 Adab makes it easier to understand ($\text{mudah paham}$) by purifying the soul, allowing knowledge to be absorbed better, especially when showing respect to the teacher ($\text{guru}$).
🛠️ It facilitates practice ($\text{memudahkan untuk praktik}$); if application is lacking, one should re-examine their Adab.
🌟 Knowledge informed by Adab becomes more beneficial and impactful ($\text{lebih menjadi bermanfaat}$) when practiced and shared.

Adab Towards the Self
🧘 Key practices include having a sincere intention ($\text{niat ikhlas}$)—energy follows intention ($\text{energy follow intention}$), and purifying the soul to receive divine light.
🧼 A clean soul is like fertile, weed-free soil, allowing roots to optimally access oxygen and water needed for growth.
🚫 Avoid arrogance regarding existing knowledge and the attitude of feeling like one knows more ($\text{merasa lebih tahu}$), emphasizing the need to empty the cup to receive new input.
📚 Learn completely and patiently ($\text{belajar dengan tuntas}$), completing one stage (e.g., $\text{Matrikulasi}$) before moving to the next, and solidify learning by taking notes and practicing.

Adab Towards the Knowledge Provider (Teacher)
🌟 Seek the teacher's satisfaction ($\text{rida guru}$) by showing respect, serving them, paying attention to explanations, and avoiding comparisons between different teachers.
🗣️ Students should not precede the teacher in explaining or answering, avoid interrupting, and not engage in side conversations while the teacher speaks.
✍️ When sharing knowledge gained, ask permission and cite the teacher's name; focus on sharing personal insights and experiences rather than word-for-word copying.

Adab Towards the Source of Knowledge
📚 Treat sources of knowledge (books, e-books) with respect, ensuring proper storage (e.g., not folding books).
🚫 Do not duplicate sources for commercial purposes without permission and strictly avoid plagiarism or supporting pirated materials.
🧐 Apply skeptical thinking ($\text{skeptical thinking}$) when receiving information: verify truth, assess benefit, and only share if it is beneficial, thus taking responsibility for what is shared.

Key Points & Insights
➡️ Adab is the root that ensures knowledge transforms into beneficial, fruitful deeds ($\text{ilmu yang berkah}$).
➡️ To ensure knowledge absorption, focus on sincere intention and actively cleanse the soul of negative traits like arrogance.
➡️ Patience in completing stages of learning and diligently practicing what is learned (involving the whole body) are crucial self-adabs.
➡️ When receiving instruction, respect the provider by listening fully and avoiding judgment or comparison, as every source offers a unique perspective.
