Kerana Dia Ibuku

Bismillah arRahman arRahiim...

Saje je nak berehat sekejap selepas buat assignment. Seronoknya bila belajar benda yang kita cinta, walau mencabar, hati tak pernah merungut. Kerana cinta pada ilmu itu. Ilmu Allah sebenarnya, kan?! :)

Tiba-tiba sedang otak ligat berfikir, dan hormon choline sedang sibuk bekerja dengan setia bersama neuron - neuron nya, Mama pun tanya, "Ok ke? Kot lah ada apa - apa yang jadi..." Hmm.. aku cuma senyum dan kata "Takde apa-apalah. Ok je." Dalam hati menggumam sendiri, "Obvious sangat ke lainnya aku ni? Mama ni macam tau-tau je. Tak boleh nak sorok betul lah." Haih...

Kalau kawan pun boleh nampak, ibu yang mengandungkan kau 7 bulan takkan tak perasan yang kau tu ada something tersimpan kat 'dalam tu' kan?! Haih..kerana dia ibuku..tentu dia lebih tahu tentang aku. Hmm..tapi takkan semua benda kita nak cerita. Kadang-kadang lebih baik simpan seorang. Online dengan Allah. Jauh lebih menenangkan hati. Agaknya sebab kejutan nerve impulse yang aku terima sejak akhir-akhir ni membuatkan muka sedikit berkerut. Hoho.. teringat pula kata-kata seorang panel dalam Twins of Faith hari tu. Lebih kurang macam ni lah bunyinya, "I wonder why Muslims frown a lot. I hope after this, when we meet each other we'll greet with SALAAM and SMILE."

********************************************************************************

Hmm..kan itu yang diajarkan oleh Rasulullah SAW ? Dalam satu riwayat ada disebutkan (boleh rujuk Kitab Hadis 40 dan Syarahnya) , Rasulullah SAW bertanya kepada para sahabat, "Mahukah kamu aku tunjukkan satu perkara yang jika kamu lakukannya kamu akan dapat menumbuhkan perasaan kasih sayang antara kamu?" Lalu sahabat pun berkata, "Apakah ia, ya Rasulullah?" Baginda menjawab, "Sebarkanlah salam."  ^_^

Dalam Twins of Faith, kami dididik dengan menjawab salam dengan bersemangat. Nasihat Sheikh Hussein Yee, "Jika orang memberi salam 'Assalamualaikum', jawablah 'Wa'alaikumussalam warahmatullah'. Jika dia berkata, 'Assalamualaikum warahmatullah', jawablah dengan lebih baik iaitu 'Wa'alaikumussalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh'. Dan jika dia memberi salam 'Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh', jawablah dengan salam yang sama baiknya tetapi lebih kuat dan semangat daripada pemberi salam tadi.

Semoga dengan amalan sunnah yang kecil ini, dapat kita sebarkan kasih sayang sesama umat Islam. Sabda Nabi Muhammad SAW, "Sesungguhnya tidak sempurna iman seseorang itu sehingga dia mengasihi saudaranya seperti mana dia mengasihi dirinya sendiri." (Riwayat Imam Bukhari & Muslim)

Semoga perkongsian yang sedikit ini memberi manfaat yang banyak kepada sahabat pembaca yang ana kasihi kerana Allah. Wallahu 'alam. :)

P/S: Tentang post yang dijanjikan mengenai pengisian Twins of Faith itu, masih dalam proses. Mohon maaf ya, sebab perlukan sedikit masa untuk menghuraikannya dengan gaya tersendiri. Isinya terlalu banyak dan semuanya hebat-hebat belaka. :) InsyaAllah.

Twins of Faith : The Building Blocks

Bismillah arRahman arRahiim...

"Are you building a nation builder or a nation breaker???"

AsSaff 61 : 4

Indeed, Allah loves those who fight in His cause in a row as though they are a [single] structure joined firmly. 

Ummah ini hanya akan berjaya dengan pertolongan Allah. Tetapi adakah Allah akan membantu umat yang lebih suka berpecah-belah? Pertolongan Allah hanya akan tiba apabila umat Islam ini bersatu umpama satu struktur yang kukuh. Satu binaan yang kukuh itu bermula dari seketul batu-bata yang ampuh. Dan ketahuilah batu-bata itu adalah diri kita, ya akhi wa ukht! 

Pembinaan ummah bermula daripada pembinaan sebuah baitul muslim yang hebat! Jadi, kepada akhwat di luar sana carilah suami yang punya kriteria-kriteria yang akan kita kongsi bersama selepas ini. Dan kepada ikhwah bakal pemimpin Islam, carilah isteri yang layak dijadikan srikandi. Punya ciri-ciri seperti mana ciri seorang srikandi. ^_^

CRITERIA TO LOOK FOR IN A HUSBAND :-

1. Strong 

Strong is not necessarily physical strength. The most important is strong of faith. Without the strength how can he become a leader of our family? How can a man who is hardly being responsible in his 5 times daily prayer, become a responsible leader of our family? If he is not fear of Allah, surely, he'll also never "fear" of you. Huhu...

Besides that, he should also a strong man in terms of intellect and financial. So that, as his wife, we will be more secured.

2. Trustworthy

Err..you understand it well. Should I describe it even more? :)

3. Background

How is his family background? Are they practising the true teachings of Islam? And one thing that we should take note is "Can I get along with my mother-in-law very well?" This question is very important to be answered because you will need his mother to win his heart and live happily as one big family. ^_^

4. Akhlaq (Attitude)

Akhlaq is much different if being compared to ethics. Akhlaq is a spontaneous behaviour that one will react when something occur. It is not related to what people think of you. Yet, it is about what Allah think who you are. So, test him to know his real attitude. (Hehe..) Knowing who are his close friends will help you a lot.  

MATHEMATICS OF LOOKING FOR A GOOD WIFE:-

1. Beauty (Value = 0)

Beauty is quite important to attract men because man is physically attracted. A man will love a woman who he is attracted to. While a woman will be attracted to a man he loves. Men is physically attracted while women is emotionally attracted. But remember the value is 0.

2. Wealth (Value = 0)

Wealth is a bonus if you can find one. :)

3. Background (Value = 0)

A good background will help you adapt easily to her family. So, it is encouraged to find the one who has a good background, similar culture and same social status. Or else you might find it hard in the middle of marriage. But remember, the value is still 0.

4. Deen - Religion (Value = 1)

One who is religious should not be necessarily the one who is a student of Syari'ah or the one who learns Usuluddin. Because we have to realize that the one who takes religious subject as a core in her studies may not be as religious as we expected. So, to know who is the real her, you may ask her colleagues, close friends and her teachers. Or perhaps you may stalk her secretly on social websites which she is active. Remember, a good deen is number one!

So, now let's do the mathematics! :-p

If she has the deen and beauty, her value is...

1 + 0 = 10

If she has the deen, beauty and wealth,

1 + 0 + 0 = 100

If she has the deen, beauty, wealth and good background,

1 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 1000

But, if she has only beauty, wealth and good background. She's not practising the Islam as deen (way of life). Then, her value will be only,

0 + 0 + 0 = 000

NO VALUE at all! So, don't marry her, or else you will regret!

THREE Criteria You Should Find In A Friend :-

Because Rasulullah had advised us to find a good friend. One will be just like his / her best friends. If your best friend is the one who practises Islam as a way of life, then you will most probably to be like him / her and vice versa.

So,

1. If you see them, you will remember Allah.

2. They guide you to live life based on AlQur'an and Sunnah.

3. When they speak, they will strengthen your belief.

Always ask yourself, 

"Are you building a nation builder or a nation breaker???"

My dear brothers and sisters, we should take this matter seriously because we are the building blocks and Allah will not help us until we are united as ONE strong structure under ONE FAITH.

Till here.

Jazakumullah khairan kathira. ^_^

Twins of Faith : You Are The Best of Nations!

Bismillah arRahman arRahiim...

Sekali lagi jiwa ini meronta-ronta minta dihidangkan dengan makanan rohani. Memang hati bila tak diisi, emosi pun jadi tak stabil macam penulis blog ni. Huhu.. teringat pula lagu Maher Zain - InsyaAllah. 

"Everytime you commit one more mistake

You feel you can’t repent
And that its way too late
Your’re so confused, wrong decisions you have made
Haunt your mind and your heart is full of shame

Don’t despair and never lose hope
Cause Allah is always by your side
Insha Allah
Insya Allah you’ll find your way"

Alhamdulillah, 24 dan 25 Disember 2011, atas izin Allah, ana berjaya menjejakkan kaki ke Festival Islam terbesar dan yang pertama seumpamanya di Malaysia. Twins of Faith - International Conference & Islamic Family Festival di Putrajaya International Convention Centre. With my adorable hero, beloved Papa, I really enjoyed the journey. Special credits to my sister in Islam, Zahidah binti Azman (my senior at UiTM) for helping me buying the tickets. Jazakillah khairan kathira. ^_^



The first topic is 'You Are The Best of Nations' by Sheikh Yahya Ibrahim

Surah Ali-Imran 3:110

You are the best nation produced [as an example] for mankind. You enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and believe in Allah . If only the People of the Scripture had believed, it would have been better for them. Among them are believers, but most of them are defiantly disobedient. 

Ringkasnya, pengisiannya lebih berkisar tentang kita (umat Islam) hanya akan menjadi mulia jika kita benar-benar beriman dengan apa yang diajarkan dalam Al-Quran yakni mengajak kepada kebaikan dan mencegah kemungkaran. Di saat seseorang itu berpaling daripada kebenaran Al-Quran, maka Allah juga akan berpaling daripadanya. Cuba bayangkan, apa yang akan jadi andai Allah Tuhan kita benar-benar murka begitu sekali kepada kita? Na'uzubillah min zaalik.

Namun menjadi umat yang terbaik ini perlukan pelan tindakan yang bijak agar misi tercapai. Antaranya, kita hendaklah bergaul dengan orang yang baik akhlaknya, yang tinggi ilmunya. Tetapi pada era globalisasi yang penuh hipokrisi ini, mampukah insan macam kita bertemu dengan sahabat sehebat itu???

Ketahuilah, yang terbaik di kalangan kamu itu adalah apabila kamu melihatnya, kamu akan berasa malu untuk melakukan kejahatan (walau sekecil-kecil dosa sekalipun).

Dalam ayat tersebut, ada diterangkan tentang DUA perkara yang perlu kita laksanakan agar menjadi UMAT TERBAIK. Pertama, amal makruf. Kedua, nahi mungkar.  Tetapi bagaimana kita ingin laksanakannya andai iman yang ada dalam dada lebih nipis dari kulit bawang?

"Nahi mungkar is not you do it in violence. BUT you SHOW them the right way. Then, they'll choose to do the right before they choose to do the wrong." - Sheikh Yahya Ibrahim

Tetapi lihatlah apa yang terjadi dalam masyarakat Islam hari ini? Kita lebih banyak 'menghukum' (judge) orang sebelum kita benar-benar selidik apa yang terjadi. Pantang lihat orang buat salah sikit, pantang lihat ada yang tak kena pada ketua kita, atau orang 'alim kat kawasan perumahan kita, dengan mudah kita 'menghukum'nya sesedap mulut kita.

"Kenapa ustaz tu jarang pergi solat jemaah?"


"Kenapa orang yang pakai tudung labuh tu nampak sombong sangat? Senyum pun susah?"


"Kamu ni nama je belajar kat Timur Tengah, takkan benda basic macam ni pun tak tau?"

Mungkin itu yang pernah terlontar dari bibir kita, atau pernah terlintas di hati kita. Astaghfirullahal 'aziim.

That is not the right way, my dear brothers and sisters. Cara itu hanya akan merosakkan nilai-nilai Islam yang indah dan melemahkan semangat mereka yang ingin berubah! Gunakanlah cara yang penuh kasih sayang dan hikmah. Jangan sekali-kali kita merasakan diri kita ini lebih baik daripada mereka. Boleh jadi di saat hati terlintas sebegitu, yang hina itu bukan dia tetapi kita kerana kita fikir seolah-olah kita sudah pasti tempat kita di syurga.

Bersabarlah dalam mendidik jiwa. Dan bersabarlah dalam bersabar. You can talk, but don't hurt (by your negative words).


When you're feeling down while trying to portray the good image of Islam,
always remember WHO YOU ARE? 


YOU'RE THE BEST OF NATIONS!!! 


Wabillahi taufiq wal hidayah.
