Kiyai: Saya akan mencuba sejauh kemampuan saya.
Pemuda: Saya ada 3 pertanyaan:-
  1. Kalau memang Tuhan itu ada,tunjukan wujud tuhan kepada saya.
  2. Apakah yang dinamakan takdir?
  3. Kalau syaitan diciptakan dari api kenapa dimasukan ke neraka yang dibuat dari api, tentu tidak menyakitkan buat syaitan. Sebab mereka memiliki unsur yang sama.

What The Hell Are You Doing?

Once upon a time there was a shepherd looking after his sheep at the side of adeserted road. Suddenly a brand new Porsche screeches to a halt. The driver, a man dressed in an Armani suit, Cerutti shoes, Ray-Ban sunglasses, TAG-Heuer wrist watch and a Pierre Cardin tie, gets out and asks the shepherd, "If I can tell you how many sheep you have, will you give me one of them?" The shepherd looks at theyoung man, then looks at the large flock of grazing sheep and replies, "Okay."
The young man parks the car, connects his laptop to the mobile fax, enters a NASA website, scans the ground using his GPS, opens a database and 60 Excel spreadsheets filled with algorithms and pivot tables. He then prints out a 150-page report on his high-tech mini-printer, turns to the shepherd and says, "You have exactly 1,586 sheep." The shepherd answers, "That's correct, you can have your sheep."
The young man takes an animal and puts it in the back of his Porsche. The shepherd looks at him and asks, "If I guess your profession, will you return my animal to me?" The young man answers, "Yes! Go on then."
The shepherd says, "You are an AUDITOR."
"That was quick! How did you know?" asks the young man.
"Very simple," answers the shepherd.
"Firstly, you came here without being wanted. Secondly, you charged me to tell me something I already knew, and thirdly, you dont understand anything about my business. Now can I have my dog back?"

Somebody Cares

Somebody cares & always will;
The world forgets, but Allah loves u still.

You can’t go beyond His love;
No matter what u r quiting off.

Allah forgives until the end;
He’s your faithful loyal friend.

And though u try to hide your face;
There’s no shelter, any place.

That can escape His watchful eyes;
For on the earth and in the skies.

He’s ever present & always there;
To take u in His tender care.

And bind the wounds & mend the breaks;
When the world around forsakes.

Somebody cares & loves u still
And ALLAH is the SOMEONE & ALWAYS WILL .

"He is with you whosesoever you may be." (57:4)
"Truly nothing is hidden from Allah, in the earth or in the heavens." (3:5)
"Verily, your Lord is full of Grace for mankind, yet most of them do not give thanks." (Al Naml 27:73)

Respectness

In the Name of Allah, the Beneficient, the Merciful.

(1)
The Holy Qur’an as the final and most accomplished revealed book setting forth every thing in clear prospective and a source from Almighty Allah sent down upon His most Affectionate and supremely modeled Apostle Hazrat Muhammad (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). The honour and Reverence (TA‘ZIM-O-TAWQIR) of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) is as essential for every believing Muslim as the Faith and Belief in Islam itself. The Holy Qur’an Speaks voluminously in this behalf exhorts the followers to reflect upon again and again the Divine verses spread throughout the vast concourse of Revelations.

It appears we have been behaving like simpletons and looking askance every where instead of the real source of deliverance — the Holy Qur’an and the unstinted reverential love of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and thus reduced ourselves to soulless skeletons at the mercy of others who exploit us for their refurious purposes.
Now we proceed to show to the World at large particularly the Muslims how the Holy Qur’an straight forwardly and unmistakably enunciates and delineates the august personality of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and exhorts its addressees to ponder with themselves where they stand in this realm of Holy Prophet’s adoration:

The real test of examining the love and respect for an exalted personality is how deep the imprint of this sublime virtue (love) is in heart and mind and how far one is prepared to offer sacrifices at the altar of love and devotion. The best and the most shining example in this behalf as the _expression of love and regard is provided by the Holy Qur’an which at various places has demonstrated that Almighty Allah, wherever He mentions His love (towards the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). He ordained it to be at par with what people refer towards Him in their prayers and supplientions. In other words, His devotees should not make distinction between their love and obedience towards Allah the Almighty and Respect and Reverence towards the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), so that a pattern be set whereby the depth and intensity of love may be evaluated. It is for this reason that Almighty Allah has demanded the love of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) to be the first and most fundamental condition as the sign of faith side by side the love towards Allah the Almighty. Thus true love emanates from the real devotion and reverence, while respect is the first pre-requisite of the love. That is to say that Reverence and Respect determines the depth of love and obedience. When the Angels realised the greatness (as a mark of respect) of Hazrat Adam, all of them prostrated before him. Similarly when the Brothers of Prophet Yousuf after going through trials and tribulations, became aware of the greatness of their Brother yousuf whom they maltreated and even threw earlier in the well just to get rid of him and thus endear themselves in the eyes of their father Prophet Yaqoob, all of them lay in Prostration before Hazrat Yousuf. On the other hand, Iblis (Satan) arrogantly treated Hazrat Adam as a skeleton of clay and refused to prostrate in utter defiance of Divine Command, and thus suffered the eternal wrath of Almighty Allah after being declared "accursed" for ever and thrown down from the garden of Bliss. A true love (with reverence) produces the evolution in the heart and mind and elevates a person from a position of down trodden human being to the station of spiritual and moral grandeur to which even the angels envy. History bears how the ignorant and uncivilised Arabs became the torch-bearers of highest quality of civilization and enlightenment when they unreserved and steadfastly submitted themselves with a spirit of true love and devotion before the commands of Almighty Allah and His Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).

The negation of the love and Reverence results in utter disgrace and curse the fate of Iblis. We must therefore be in guard of our ideological and spiritual faith, specially when we are visualising and evaluating the highest and most sublime personality of our Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).

The Spiritual and the Divinely enlightened status of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) can be understood and visualised only by those fortunate persons who are gifted with Divine guidance and wisdom under the inspiration of true love and Reverence. Otherwise in the eyes of the unbelievers -- the Kuffar (the atheists or rejecters of the Faith), Mushrikeen (who associated others with Allah the Almighty), the Jews and the Christians, the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) was merely a common man (with no special spiritual and Divine virtues). The Holy Qur’an mentions this at various places. Some verses are quoted below as examples of this blasphemy.
  1. They said, "You are a common mortal like us."
  2. "Who is this man? nothing but a mortal like you."
  3. "Who is this man but a mortal like you, he wants to establish his superiority over you."
  4. "He is nothing but a mortal like you. He eats of what you eat and he drinks of what you drink."
  5. "You are no more than a man like us".
  6. They said, "You are nothing but a mortal like us"
  7. They said, "We find you but a man like us".
These are only a few examples from a large number of verses, showing what the Kuffar, Mushrikeen, Jews and Christians of Makka said and thought about the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). Iblis (Satan) too thought (prophet) Adam only as a mortal being and refused to prostrate before him as in defiance of the Divine Command and said, "It is not befitting of me that I should prostrate before a mortal".

It is apparent that in visualising and considering the status of the prophets of Allah all the heathenish and unbelieving elements like Iblis, Kuffar, Mushrikeen, Jews and Christians regarded them as mortals or common men, without confessing and believing their super human and prophetic virtues.
  1. Some said, "Mortal like you"
  2. Some said, "Mortal like us"
  3. Some others said, two men "Like us" while.
  4. Some others said, "A prophet — man sent by Allah"
This repetitive degrading epithet ‘Bashar’ or ‘mortal being’ was not uttered by the companions of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), but it were the heathens and unbelieving Christians and the Jews, who in their obstinacy to oppose Islam and discredit the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) spoke in this insolent manner. In answer to these blasphemous utterance, Allah the Almighty consoled the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and directed him to answer (those opponents) say thus (no doubt) I look a mortal like you, but (it is also a fact) that I receive Revelation (Wahi) from Almighty Allah that your God (Allah) is only One (without being shared or associated by any other God or Gods).

Here it must be observed that the words ‘mortal like you’ were not spoken by Allah the Almighty in respect of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) but it was said by the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) in reply to his detractors, meaning thereby that though in appearance I look a mortal like you but my point of superiority over you is that I receive ‘Revelations’ (Wahi) from Allah the Almighty, tell me which of you receives Wahi from Allah; obviously there is none to claim this exclusive Divine Privilege and Honour; If there is none, then surely I am not a common man (mortal) as you think of me. Is there any one among you who receives Revelation (Wahi) from Allah the Almighty. It is the point which demands deep faithful and conscious reflection, the quintessence or the spirit of which can only be gained if we ponder over and study the Qur’an as a whole and not fragmentarily or in piece-meal. The Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) said, "No one knows my Reality except Allah.and He declared him the light."

Such a slighting and derogatory utterances (refered to above) can hardly be expected from son to his father, from an obedient student to his teacher or from a disciple (murid) to his spiritual guide (Murshad). If some one ever said to his elder, you are an ordinary man like me then he can only be called insolent and disrespectful. Can there be any one among men who can claim equality -- what to think of superiority with the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) even if we take into consideration the highest blood of human relations, who are all in essence, human being or mortals (Bashar). It is improper to address them with this phraseology. This being so, it is the impropriety or insolence of the basest degree on the part of that mentally distracted person who dares to utter the word ‘Bashar’ for the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) or compares him to any of our dynastic or domestic relations. Such a kind of thinking can not produce real love and regard and consequently the real spirit of Ta‘zim-o-Tawqir (Respect and veneration) towards the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). May Allah the Almighty in His infinite mercy bless us with the real and unstinted love and Reverence towards the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and increase and strengthen our Faith, Amin!

It is very significant that Almighty Allah did not straight-away ordain to honour and revere the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) as that would have been compulsive and arbitrary without the heart and soul being attuned to it. The process is very much in the line of human instinct. To begin with it is the primary instinct of love which initiates and binds two (or more) persons together then follows the process of honour and respect (Ta‘zim-o-Tawqir). Then every-thing ordained and proclaimed by way of Divine Demand and command finds its passage in the heart and mind of the person so addressed and thus what follows thereafter is witting and voluntary submission without the least grudge and grumble. This constitutes the bond of faithful and honest adherents; in this way a band or group or society or community of Muslims, loyal and loving to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) makes its appearance and moving forward and gaining momentum spreads its blessings far and wide among the fellow beings.

The gradual induction of love, honour, respect and assistance propounded by Allah the Almighty paves the way for establishing Ta‘zim-o-Tawqir for the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and the entire clan of Prophets. It is said :
  • "Believe in My apostles, honour and assist them".
  • "Believe in Allah and His Apostle, and honour and assist him" (with due dignity and respect i.e Ta‘zim-O-Tawqir).
  • "So it is those who believe in him (the Holy Prophet) (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) honour him and help him".
In the order of priority and beginning with faith or belief (Eiman) as the foundation, followed by in that succession of realising the ultimate perfection and accomplishment of the personality of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) with Respect or Reverence (Ta‘zim) for him in the spiritual domain, and material help by way of sacrifice in the Divine Mission of guidance, the demand for the Holy Prophet’s (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) obedience and unreserved following (Ita’at) did not come as a burden or compulsion for the true followers and companions. Now the inflow of the Divine Blessing and award was as smooth as it was guaranteed. The glad tiding was then given that those who were firm in their Faith, who respected and honoured the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), who offered help and assistance in his mission and who followed and obeyed him with no mental reservation gained the real fulfillment of their life long ambitions and desires not only in this world but also in the hereafter the great Divine pleasure.

No doubt the real success and prosperity in both the worlds comes only in this way that there should be Faith (Eiman) in the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) together with respect and honour for him from the depth of heart and mind in a manifest manner through words and deeds. The fragrance of love can not be checked from spreading far and wide. The grandeur and excellence of the Ta‘zim-O-Tawqir (Respect and Reverence) of the holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) can be seen from the fact that wherever the Almighty Allah mentioned His obedience, there was also the simultaneous mention of Holy Prophet’s obedience, (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).

Similarly where there is warning against disobedience to Allah the Almighty the same holds good in respect of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). No where it is mentioned that one who obeys Allah the Almighty, he obeys the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). Instead in order to be more explicit in enhancing the status of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), it is stated that who-ever obeys the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) he obeys Almighty Allah. The real emphasis is on the love and obedience of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). This means that one who loves the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), he loves Allah and one who follows and obeys the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) he is deemed as affectionate and beloved in the presence of Allah the Almighty.

That is the reason why Allah the Almighty has commanded honour and regard for the sacred rites (and monuments) held as such by the chosen servants, as anything held sacred and dear by them is also held sacred and dear by Allah the Almighty. This is how love behaves naturally;

One method of increasing popularity and enhancing prestige and dignity of a person is that his expected advent or arrival should be proclaimed emphatically without naming him till the august moment comes so that when he makes his appearance all those present realise his greatness as spontaneously as his personality exhorts them to express their acclamation, and when prior to his appearance they are asked to give pledge for his honour and help, the response to this call is as unanimous as if it rises from the heart of the audience. The allusion here is to the great occasion on the Day of Alast in the Day when thousand upon thousand years before the creation of the universe, Almighty Allah took oath of allegiance of Faith and succour from the Apostles and Prophets in favour of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). This by no stretch of imagination is to be taken as a passing event. It has, on the other hand the grandeur and excellence of the personality of the Holy Prophet, thousand and thousand years before he and the universe had taken concave shape. The great event is unsurpassed from all angles of vision and imagination. Likewise when prophets Ibrahim and Ismail were raising the foundation of the house of Allah, and praying for the arrival of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) hundreds of years before his birth, it demonstrated what august and pre-eminent place the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) enjoyed in the comuty of nations yet to be born

Then again about five hundred and seventy years before the coming of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) in the world prophet Jesus Christ addressed his audience numbering in thousands and gave them the good tidings of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) whose arrival was anxiously awaited by believer and in whose name people prayer for their welfare as foretold in the Holy Qur’an, telling them that "A prophet will come after me and his name will be Ahmad (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him)." This is illustrative of the great spectical of loftiness and grandeur of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) shown to the world at large, so that the world may be witness to this Divine Dispensation of splendeur. No less then one lac and twenty four thousand apostles of Allah, mentioned his name among their peoples (Ummah), which created a pleasant stir of expectancy in each passing age. Then suddenly in that state of universal eagerness, the advent of the Holy Prophet was proclaimed and all the world was aglow with the Divine Brightness of the Holy Noor of Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa. (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). He was proclaimed as superior to the inhabitants of the World.

His mention was raised to unprecedented heights. The splendour was accompanied by series of Divine oaths just to highlight the occasion and elevate the august honorific phenomena then and there-after for ever brightening the atmosphere in every nook and corner.
  • The Oath was taken to express the loftiness of ancestors of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
  • To consecrate and sanctity the life of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
  • The Holy city (Makka) of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). Mentioned the sublime and highly respectable character of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
  • eulogised his pure and sacred personal habits.
  • spoke highly of Divinely bestowed knowledge,
  • brought into lime light his merciful disposition towards the length and breadth of the worlds;
  • praised the prophetic qualities of preaching and conveying the message of Allah all over the world;
  • brought forth the prophetic benevolence as continuing till eternity and confirmed that after the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) no other prophet or apostle will come in the world;
  • and only his Chair (kursi) shall be placed on the right hand side of the throne of (Arsh) of Allah.
All these virtues of qualities of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) have been presented in a candid unambiguous manner so that the real imprint of the Holy Prophet’s super human questionable personal excellence may not be confused as being the part of his quality as of any ordinary mortal as believed by the Kuffar, Mushrikeen, Jews and Christians who suffered the ignoming of being condemned by the enlightened believers.

The Holy Pages of the Holy Qur’an are strewn with embellishing pearls of defining and illustrating the sacred virtues and spiritual moral qualities of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). It only needs a discerning eye to visualise and assimilate the splendour hidden therein; Allah-O-Akbar the Almighty Allah is Himself nearer to every man (believer) than his jugular vein and made the Holy Prophet near to the soul of every believer. The Holy Prophet has himself said, "there is not a single momin (believer) but I am accompanying him in the world and shall be so in the hereafter". Enough praise is not enough to delineate the attributes of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). He has been proclaimed a witness (one who is in the know of every incident taking place as an eye-witness) to the entire Ummah. He has been Divinely with the Holy Qur’an which makes everything clear and contains every relevant details thereof. He has been honoured and blessed with the gift of Lailat-ul-Qadr (the Night of power and Divine Dispensation conducting and directing the affairs of the universe) which is better (and more blissful) than thousand months; unaccountable in the connotative sense. He has been given the glad tidings (Basharat) of the Muqaam-i-Mahmud (station of praise and Glory) with the bestowment of Durud (the rites of prayer for grant of blessings) by Almighty Allah Himself, the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) has been raised to such celestial heights which no mortal can ever dream to attain. It was for the fulfillment of the Holy Prophet’s desire that the Direction of Qibla was changed. The world of God moves in humble submission to whatever sight thou art.

Allah the Almighty loves His chosen servants dearly and affectionately. He has even equally affectionate regards for things which these blessed persons hold dear. This involves a deep sense of mutual love and inter-communicable attachment on both sides. The wooden chest (Tabut) containing blissful relics (Tabarrukat) from Hazrat Moosa and Hazrat Harun has been declared as treasure of peace and security; it was carried by the angels as an emblem of authority among the Bani Israel. The (Stone containing) first marks of Hazrat Ibrahim (Maqam-i-Ibrahim) was installed right in front of Holy Ka‘ba and declared as one of clear signs of Allah. The foot prints in the sands of Safa-Marwa caused due to frantic to and fro running by Hazrat Hajirah was immortalised as one of the sacred rites (sha‘a’ir) of Allah and running round about on these sacred hills was ordained as an integral part of the Haj and Umrah. This practice still continues and shall remain so till Resurrection. On account of their sanctity the three monuments have been declared by the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) as sacred, and selected from among the numerous places of worship to be visited and prayed within their precincts, for people coming and traveling from far off places braving the hazards which fall en-route their journey. What was the reason for bidding their respect. Perhaps the superficial intellect can not probe the latent spiritual blessings attached to them. It is their misfortune that is only to be pitied. The Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) undated journey to Masjid-i-Haram (the Holy Ka‘ba) and prayed there in and declared it as sacred monument as it carried the traces of deep and sanctimonious regard of the great prophets Hazrat Ibrahim and Hazrat Ismail and thousands and thousands of pious souls from among the other prophets and holy personages who visited these places and paid homage there, the greatest of all attributes of Masjid-i-Haram is that the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) himself offered prayers within its precincts. He undertook journey to Masjid-i-Aqsa (on the eve of Shab-i-Miraj) and encouraged visit and prayers there as this is the place where at the site of Hazrat Moosa’s tent camp) prophet Da’ud laid the foundation of the Masjid-i-Aqsa or Bait al-Maqdis and the whole monumental structure was completed by Hazrat Sulyman (may peace of Allah be on them all). The Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) on migration from Makka himself selected the site for laying the foundation of Masjid-i-Nabawi and later completed it under his own personal participation and supervision and in due course proclaimed it as the seat of the Islamic state on the surface of the earth and took his abode (Hujra Sharif) quite adjacent to it. Today all the abodes (Hujras) of the pious consorts of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) rather a big part of the Madina Sharif are included within the premises of the Masjid-i-Nabawi. The eternal place of rest of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) together the Holy graves of Hazrat Abu Bakar Siddique and Hazrat Umar Farooq are all under the Mausoleum of the shrine of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) what a sweet smelling fragrance of the sacred association with the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). Allah the Almighty has declared the devotion and homage to the pious personality as part of worship certainly demands deep delving in the intricacies of love and affection to achieve and enjoy the pleasant blessing of this godly defined special attachment between souls and souls of extra ordinary caliber and potential.

This high grade status is the destiny of those who really deserve it. The instinct of love has its process and methodology of finding its own passage of entering and staying into the heart of the person so loved and admired true unstinted and pure love has the knack and acumen of spotting its own repository where it stays as if by way of right and settles and intensifies its influence on the whole being of its beloved. Then it infuses, inspires respect for itself and the person concerned. It advances and proceeds on and on, never looking back for a moment. It never spies the weakness in the person of its choice, nor all those any one to do so. This is contrary to its nature. It is ever prepared to sacrifice itself, rather than destroy the object of its solace and comfort. Allah the Almighty chose the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) as His persona deadmire and persona grata and proclaimed as the model for us to emulate and admire in all circumstances. Allah loves that the followers of the Holy Prophet should speak of him lovingly, respectfully and honourably. The reward promised by Allah the Almighty increases manifold as the love and obedience for the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) intensifies and consolidates stage by stage, but never culminating because love has a beginning but never an ending. Allah has made His pleasure conditional upon the love and obedience of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). Thus a Divine procedure for living a life without blemish and mental aberration has been assured through love, respect and honour of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
  1. It is beyond our contemplation to assess what deep regard and affection Almighty Allah has for the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) that He forbade the believer to address the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) by his parental name as often the people call one another in the society. The Holy Qur’an bears testimony to the fact that Almighty Allah does not address the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) by name as was done in respect of other prophets. This is to offer respect in so far as personal address to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) by name is concerned.
  2. As regards the respectful medium while accompany him outside, the believers were warned not to move ahead of him or to indulge in boastful utterances.
  3. There was the decorum not to call the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) while visiting his residence by name. It was commanded that the believers /companions should stay outside the house until the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) himself came out.
  4. In order to show respect to the revered consorts of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and pay them due regard it was demanded of the believers if they had to ask for something, they should do so from behind the curtain outside the door.
  5. The decorum taught while visiting the residence of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) was that believers should refrain from doing so unless invited on even special occasions, and stay awaiting there while the food was being prepared.
  6. It was taught by way of decorum while partaking food in group, on an invitation from the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) not to stay after finishing meals and just to indulge in gossip as it caused inconvenience to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). It was desired that they should take permission and depart as soon as they had taken food.
  7. Whenever the occasion arose to speak to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) in privacy, it was asked that the person concerned should first offer sadaqah (special charity), as it was a special honour for him that he was permitted to speak to the august person of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) only after charity he could speak in respectful privacy to him.
  8. The respectful mannerism to be observed in our assembly addressed by the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) was that those present there should pay devoted attention to the words of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) so that no repetition was needed if at all something was to be made clear or his special attention was necessary, the questioner(s) should say "unzurna" (please pay heed to us again).
  9. The believers were taught to observe due regards in manner of speech that while talking with the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) they should lower the tone of that voice as a mark of respect to speak in loud tone and indiscreetly as they call one another in the presence of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), was a sign of disrespect and indignity. Such a behaviour would destroy their good deeds without their knowing it (that a misfortune has befallen).
  10. On special occasion(s) when the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) invited the companions for consultation on some urgent and special matter, the decorum to be observed was that none should rise and go away without his permission in the midst of discussion. If some desired to leave (in the course of discussion) he was to seek the Holy Prophet’s Permission and then it was his discretion to allow or refuse permission to leave.
  11. The assembly addressed by the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) was really of an exatter and highly dignified order demanding equally respectful hehaviour. It was a sin to leave stealthily or surreptitiously, for Allah the Almighty is witness and aware of all that goes in every moment, therefore such an indecent behaviour was to be avoided at all cost lest soon misfortune should befall them and graveclamity over takes them. It is really a highly dignified and honourable assemblage where to speak in loud voice renders loss of good deeds and where to leave without permission warrants a grave warning of painful punishment.
  12. A willing and undisposed acceptance of decisions by the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) on any matter is yet another point of decorum and respect for the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
  13. No one has the right to object and controvert the decision given by the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). We are powerless before him, but he is not powerless in any way.
  14. Such is the regard to the immediate compliance of the orders or call of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) to turn to him then and there, even if the person concerned is engaged in offering the prayers.
  15. On showing reluctance to respond to the call (for Jihad) by the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) three companion, were taken to task by the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) under the command of Almighty Allah. Their ostracism or social boycott was so severe that the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) stopped talking to them and the entire group of the companions did the same the earth (World) inspite of its vastness became constricted for them rendering them utterly helpless. This state continued for forty days on end, when the pardon by Almighty Allah come through the Revelation(Wahi). The Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) like wise pardoned the three companions, embraced them and resumed the former treatment of affection and kindness.
  16. The esteemed pious and holy status of the revered consorts of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) was presered and sanctified by declaring them as the Mothers of Believers (Ummahat-al-Momineen) under the Divine revelation. Such was the respect for Holy Consorts of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and his own dignity and undisputed sacred status was preserved by forbidding the believers to call him as the father, because he was the honoured Prophet of Allah and to call him by any other name or relation would be below his dignity in all respects when there is clear command not to call him as father. It is height of indignity and impropriety to treat him as brother.
  17. The sacred and honoured status of the Holy Prophet even after his leaving the World was maintained and preserved under the inviolable command of Almighty Allah that his holy consorts (Ummahaat-ul-Momimeen) were declared haram for the believers. For any person and they were to be accepted with the same dignified manner as in the life of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). It was an act of grave indiscretion before Almighty Allah of some one even thought of marrying them. This clearly indicates that the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) has only screened himself from the common eyes of the people while in all respects he is still holding the same status and dignity which he had during his material stay in the World. Being the mercy and benevolence for the entire World and for all times, he is ever present and commanding the affairs of his prophetic mission, any other belief contrary to this will only prove our short-sightedness and narrow mindedness, and deprive us of the Divine grace.
  18. To seek forgiveness for any act of sin from Allah the Almighty, it has been prescribed as a matter of propriety and decorum that instead of rushing to Allah, the wrong doers must first seek the intercession of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) in his prayer and then beg for forgiveness from Almighty Allah. If the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) recommends, then the believer defaulter would surely find Almighty Allah as acceptor of apology for sin and even merciful.
  19. Through the intercession of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), Allah the Almighty has promised forgiveness for the sins past and present of the entire ummah and gave the glad tidings of the award of Paradise even in this world. No doubt the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) is the mercy for all the world(s) and in his presence (which is perennial for the all times, past, present and future no major calamity would befall the Ummah.
  20. Allah the Almighty does not allow even our act of seeming minuteness and the believers have been warned not to cause harassment to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), as did the people of Prophet Moses Who was specifically declared without blemish. It has been said that those who causes pain to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) by their words and deeds on them is the curse of Allah and in the hereafter there is punishment of disgrace and affliction of grave calamity. It is to be realised that when in cases of harassment of small magnitude to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) there is stern warning from Allah the Almighty -- what great and grave misfortunes shall befall those impudent and disrespectful utterers of blasphemy when they meet their fate in the hereafter.
One hypocrite (munafiq) Imam who used to recite Surah Abasa (No. 80) every day in the morning prayer with the evil and debased intention of harming the dignity of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). When the news reached the great caliph Hazrat Umar he deputed one companion to chop off the head of the munafiq Imam even though he was reciting the Holy Qur’an, but his intentions were evil which rendered him worth beheading. The four caliphs and the companions did not tolerate even the minute act of indecency against the person of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). This was an indication of their true unstinted love and unaffected affection for the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) which had enlightened their heart and mind and who were ever prepared to sacrifice their all for the sake of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).

The respect, honour and submissive regard shown by the companions towards the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) remained unparalleled even till this date. The quality of a nation or community can be judged and appreciates by the deep sense of honour and respect demonstrated by it towards its leaders specially the chief of them who leads and duides his people however selflessly and exclusively for the betterment of the masses without a semblance of self interest and personal aggrandizement viewed from this point, the personality of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) remains unmatched in the annals of mankind. He revolutionised the pattern of the society in which he was born and completely transformed and purified the people and elevated them from the debased state of savagery and hatred to the most sublime position of culture and enlightenment and converted them from idol-worshippers to the deeply devoted submission of Almighty Allah, and thus laid the foundation of the society who later helped raise the down-trodden humanity to the become leaders and reformers of the world at large.

We would present a few examples to show the respect and regard paid by the companions to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
  1. Hazrat Urwah bin Masood, a renowned companion describing the incident of spectecular reverence and decorum witnessed by him, says "I swear by Allah that I have led delegations to the courts of the kings and rulers and attended the royal assemblies of Qaisar, Kisra and Najjashi whose awesome behaviour compelled the people to bow before them, but the respect and honour shown by the companions to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) outclassed and outshown the outward respect shown to kings and commanders, which pale into insignificance before the submission and respect shown by the companions and followers to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
    Hazrat Urwah bin Masood had witnessed the above mentioned scenes when he had not embraced Islam. He further says (i) that the companions struggled and pushed one another in an attempt to secure a few drops of water when the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) performed ablution (wuzu), (ii) they never spoke or talked among themselves in the presence of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), (iii) they never stared in the face of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) but sat submissing with their heads bowed and listening attentively by whatever the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) told them as sermon or general discourse.
    The companions were unique models of deep regard and reverence for the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) unmatched, unparalleled and incomparable at any point of time in the history of mankind.
  2. One day Hazrat Bilal brought the water of wazu of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) in the open vessels no sooner he came out in the open than the companions present there rushed toward him and tried to drench their hands to rub their faces with the water in the vessels those who could not secure a few drops of water touched their fingers with the wet hands of the companions and passed the fingers over their faces.
  3. Once a companion was shaving the head of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) other companion were standing around eager to pick up any falling pious hair before it touched the ground, and preserved them as holy relics, these memorable relics are still kept as pious blissful objects all over the Islamic world.
  4. Hazrat Ubaida a companion says that for him even an pious hair of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) is better and richer than any amount of wordly wealth.
  5. Hazrat Anaas the famous companion had a wooden cup of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) which he preserved as the most precious object of bliss, later a devotee purchased this usy wooden cup for eight hundred thousand dirhams.
  6. According to the wasiyat (will) of Hazrat Muawiyah his coffin of death consisted of a Kurta (Shirt) and an open sheet of cloth, known as tahbund of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) while the open parts of his dead body, neck, face and limbs that touched the ground on prostration, were covered with the sacred hairs and clipped pieces of nails of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).

The companions were so immersed and imbibed with feeling of honour and reverence for the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), that even in his absence they adhered to his teachings and advices with as much sincerity and devotion as if he was present among them. They never deviated from these abiding principles, such was the attachment of the companions demonstrating their sincere love and respect of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). A few illustrations of these teachings and advices of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) may be presented here for enlightenment and faithful observance.

The Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) has said that whenever anyone of you stands for prayers (Namaz) he should not spit in front (of himself). Why? because there is Ka‘ba in front of him in which direction prayers are offered. For every Muslim, respect for the Ka‘ba Sharif is essential as an article of faith.

Once a companion while leading the prayer spat in front of him. The Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) saw him doing so. He forbade him to lead the prayers anymore. Thereafter that companion never led the prayer as Imam. It is reported by another companion said, bin Khallad that perhaps the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) also said you have given pain to the Almighty Allah and His Prophet.

It is binding on the Muslims not to cause pain and embarrassment to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). It should be life’s motto to pay respect and honour to the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) because if any once heart is devoid of his respect and honour he is not a Muslim at all.

In truth the real muslims or momins are those whose hearts and mind are effervescent with the love and esteem of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and who every moment seek his blessing and on him the incessantly send Durud-o-Salam overtly and covertly and this enriches their lives with the Divine Blessings on the other hand if there be people who fail to pay respect and honour and engage themselves in utterances and behaviour not unbecoming of the Holy Prophet Dignity and Honour, they should be ostracised from the Muslim society and all social connections with them be shunned.

They are more dangerous than wild beasts, rather more harmful than these animals because these animals only can only cause physical harms and injuries, while the wretched bands of the deflers of the sactred and Divnely dignified position of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) look and plunder the very essence of eiman the love and Honour (Tazeem-o-Tauqir) of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). When these precious possessions are lost then every thing is lost for ever. May Allah the Almighty save us from this uncompensateable loss and grant us the favour of His Pleasure through ever vigrlant and respectful Devotion to the Holy Prophet by offering to him our sincerest and dearest love and Honour which Almighty Allah has command us Amin!

Forgive Me, Ya Allah!

All praises are for you Allah, how I hope that you are there.
For sinful though I know I am, your displeasure I can not bear.
Never, till this moment, did I realize how much I've strayed.
Never, till now, was I more conscious of all those times when I should have prayed.
For sins are like heavy baggage, that one carries through Life,
Why didn't I realize sooner, that Earth is but a place of sport?

Ya Allah ! Forgive me. Save me from the fire of Hell.
Ya Allah ! Protect me. From myself for my soul is weak.
Let me not falter ever, for Jan'ah is the abode I seek.
Ya, Allah! Please help me. For I don't understand and thus, I fear.
What happened to all those moments when I never doubted that you were near?
My actions once were guided, by my faith which, once, was strong.

Ya Allah! please guide me. What happened, what went wrong?
Each footstep that I used to take, I took with you ever near my side.
The Quran was my faithful companion, Rasoolallah my beloved guide.
How I yearn for those bygone days Allah, for I know that the day comes near
When we'll each receive our just rewards, and Truth will stand sparkling clear.
Life is like a spider's web Allah.
We get caught in its tricky snare
So thoroughly are we disillusioned, time for saalat we can not spare.

I sit here and I wonder, Ya Allah!
Why did I fall so low?
What happened to my faith Allah?
Where did my Iman go?
In this earthly life of ours, so often does sin seem right.
Falsehood seems to be the truth, as if days are confused with night.
Man is an imperfect creature.
And thus, Man shall always wrong.
For the road to Jan'ah is rocky, and the journey seems awfully long.
Ya Allah! Our creator, we are all just peices of clay.
Please help us with our steps in life, and let us not lose our way.
All praises are for you Allah, I know that you are near.
I know that you have read my heart, and my words I know you hear.

Cinta

Mereka yang tidak menyukainya menyebutnya tanggung jawab,
Mereka yang bermain dengannya, menyebutnya sebuah permainan,
Mereka yang tidak memilikinya, menyebutnya sebuah impian,
Mereka yang saling mencintai, menyebutnya takdir.

Tuhan yang mengetahui yang terbaik,
akan memberi kita kesusahan untuk menguji.
Kadang Ia pun melukai hati, supaya hikmat-Nya bisa tertanam dalam.

Jika kita kehilangan cinta, maka pasti ada alasan di baliknya.
Alasan yang kadang sulit untuk dimengerti,
namun kita tetap harus percaya bahwa ketika Ia mengambil sesuatu,
Ia telah siap memberi yang lebih baik.

Mengapa menunggu?
Karena walaupun kita ingin mengambil satu keputusan,
kita tidak ingin tergesa-gesa.
Karena walaupun kita ingin cepat-cepat,
kita tidak ingin sembrono.

Jika ingin berlari, belajarlah berjalan duhulu,
Jika ingin berenang, belajarlah mengapung dahulu,
Jika ingin dicintai, belajarlah mencintai dahulu.

Pada akhirnya, lebih baik menunggu orang yang kita inginkan,
ketimbang memilih apa yang ada.
Tetap lebih baik menunggu orang yang kita cintai,
ketimbang memuaskan iri dengan apa yang ada.
Tetap lebih baik menunggu orang yang tepat.
Karena hidup ini terlampau singkat untuk dilewatkan bersama pilihan yang salah,
karena menunggu mempunyai tujuan yang mulia dan misterius.

Bunga tidak mekar dalam waktu semalam,
kota Roma tidak dibangun dalam sehari.
Kehidupan dirajut dalam rahim selama sembilan bulan.
Cinta yang agung terus bertumbuh selama kehidupan.
Kebanyakan hal yang indah dalam hidup memerlukan waktu yang lama,
dan penantian kita tidaklah sia-sia.
Walaupun menunggu membutuhkan banyak hal,
iman, keberanian, dan pengharapan
penantian menjanjikan satu hal yang tidak dapat seorang pun bayangkan.

Pada akhirnya,
Tuhan dalam segala hikmat-Nya,
meminta kita menunggu,
karena alasan yang penting.

Love

Whom don't have it call it responsbility,
Whom play with it call it a game,
Whom don't have it yet call it a dream,
Whom have it called Taqdeer (destiny).

Allah knows best, will give us affiction to test us.
Sometime it's hurth, so we are could learn from His wisdom.
If we are lost our love, there must must be a reason.
The reason we couldn't understand, but we are have to believe that if He took something,
He is ready to give you the best.

Why we are waiting?
Becasue if we want to make decision, we don't want in hurry.
Even we are want in hurry, we are don't want in reckless.

If you want to run, learn how to walk first
If you want to swim, learn how to float first,
If you want to beloved, learn how to love first.

At the end, it will be better if we are a waiting someone we wanted,
then chose what are there.
Is always better to awaiting someone who we love,
than satisfaction your self with who ever you are meet.

It is always better to wait the right person.
This life is too short to spend it with the wrong person,
because a waiting have the lofty aims and misterious.

Flowers is not blossom in one night,
the Rome city is not build up in one day.

The life croched for nine months in the womb.
The glory loves always blosom in this life.
All good thing in life always take along time,
and our waiting is not wasted.
Altough need soo many thing, iman, braveness,
and hope which is promises you one thing that none could imagined.

At the end, Allah asked us to wait to find the wisdom,
asked us to wait for the right reason.

Pesan-pesan Al Quran Tentang Tujuan Hidup

Nasehat ini untuk semuanya
Untuk mereka yang sudah memiliki arah
Untuk mereka yang belum memiliki arah
dan untuk mereka yang tidak memiliki arah.
Nasehat ini untuk semuanya
Semua yang menginginkan kebaikan.

Nikah itu ibadah
Nikah itu suci
ingat itu
Memang nikah itu bisa karena harta,
bisa karena kecantikan,
bisa karena keturunan dan bisa karena agama.
Jangan engkau jadikan harta, keturunan maupun kecantikan sebagai alasan
karena semua itu akan menyebabkan celaka.
Jadikan agama sebagai alasan
Engkau akan mendapatkan kebahagiaan.

Tidak dipungkiri bahwa keluarga terbentuk karena cinta
Namun
jika cinta engkau jadikan sbg landasan,
maka keluargamu akan rapuh, akan mudah hancur.
Jadikanlah "ALLAH" sebagai landasan
Niscaya engkau akan selamat,
Tidak saja dunia, tapi juga akherat
Jadikanlah ridho Allah sebagai tujuan
Niscaya mawaddah, sakinah dan rahmah akan tercapai.

Jangan engkau menginginkan menjadi raja dalam "istanamu"
disambut istri ketika datang dan dilayani segala kebutuhan
Jika ini kau lakukan "istanamu" tidak akan langgeng

Lihatlah manusia ter-agung Muhammad saw
tidak marah ketika harus tidur di depan pintu,
beralaskan sorban,
karena sang istri tercinta tdk mendengar kedatangannya.
Tetap tersenyum meski tidak mendapatkan makanan tersaji dihadapannya ketika lapar
Menjahit bajunya yang robek

Jangan engkau menginginkan menjadi ratu dalam "istanamu"
Disayang, dimanja dan dilayani suami
Terpenuhi apa yang menjadi keinginanmu
Jika itu engkau lakukan,
"istanamu" akan menjadi neraka bagimu

Jangan engkau terlalu cinta kepada istrimu
Jangan engkau terlalu menuruti istrimu
Jika itu engkau lakukan akan celaka
Engkau tidak akan dapat melihat yang hitam dan yang putih,
tidak akan dapat melihat yang benar dan yang salah

Lihatlah bagaimana Allah menegur " Nabi "
mutatakala mengharamkan apa yang Allah halalkan
hanya karenamenuruti kemauan sang istri.
Tegaslah terhadap istrimu
Dengan cintamu, ajaklah dia taat kepada Allah
Jangan biarkan dia dengan kehendaknya
Lihatlah bagaimana istri Nuh dan Luth
Di bawah bimbingan manusia pilihan,
justru mereka menjadi penentang
Istrimu bisa menjadi musuhmu

Didiklah istrimu
Jadikan dia sebagai Hajar,
wanita utama yang loyal terhadap tugas suami, Ibrahim.
Jadikan dia sebagai Maryam,
wanita utama yang bisa menjaga kehormatannya
Jadikan dia sebagaiKhadijah,
wanita utama yang bisa mendampingi sang suami Muhammad saw menerima tugas risalah
Istrimu adalah tanggung jawabmu
Jangan kau larang mereka taat kepada Allah
Biarkan mereka menjadi wanita shalilah
Biarkan mereka menjadi hajar atau Maryam
Jangan kau belenggu mereka dengan egomu

Jika engkau menjadi istri
Jangan engkau paksa suamimu menurutimu
Jangan engkau paksa suamimu melanggar Allah
Siapkan dirimu untuk menjadi Hajar,
yang setia terhadap tugas suami
Siapkan dirimu untuk menjadi Maryam,
yang bisa menjaga kehormatannya
Siapkan dirimu untuk menjadi Khadijah,
yang bisa yang bisa mendampingi suami menjalankan misi.
Jangan kau usik suamimu dengan rengekanmu
Jangan kau usik suamimu dengan tangismu
Jika itu kau lakukan
Kecintaannya terhadapmu akan memaksanya menjadi pendurhaka
jangan

Jika engkau menjadi Bapak
Jadilah bapak yang bijak seperti Lukmanul Hakim
Jadilah bapak yang tegas seperti Ibrahim
Jadilah bapak yang kasih seperti Muhammad saw
Ajaklah anak-anakmu mengenal Allah
Ajaklah mereka taat kepada Allah
Jadikan dia sebagai Yusuf yang berbakti
Jadikan dia sebagai Ismail yang taat
Jangan engkau jadikan mereka sebagai Kan'an yang durhaka.
Mohonlah kepada Allah
Mintalah kepada Allah, agar mereka menjadi anak yang shalih
Anak yang bisa membawa kebahagiaan.
Anak yang mencintai nabinya, keluarga, dan para salaf yang solih.

Jika engkau menjadi ibu
Jadilah engkau ibu yang bijak, ibu yang teduh
Bimbinglah anak-anakmu dengan air susumu
Jadikanlah mereka orang-orang yang sholeh
Jadikanlah mereka tentara-tentara Allah
Jangan biarkan mereka bermanja-manja

What Al-Quran says about the aim of this life

By all of modesty lets we are scrutinized the advice of Al-Quran about the aim of this life.

This advice is for all
For whom who has aim
For whom who is aimless
This is for all
Everyone who seeking for the goodness.

Married is for the deen
Married is chaste, remember that
Admittedly married could because of the wealthness,
because of beauty,
couse of heredirarity and becaused of faith.
Don't make the wealthness, heredirarity, beauty as the reason
Cause all of that could lead you to the calamitous,
So Please use faith as the reason
It will lead you to the happiness.

We are can't denied if love is the founder of family
but
if love you use as the anvil,
then your home will be brittle and easy to destroyed.
Use "ALLAH" as the anvil
Surely you will be blessed,
Not only in this life,
also at the great beyond
Use the bless of Allah as the aim
Surelly mawaddah, sakinah dan warahmah you will reach.

Never desire you will be the king in "your palace"
Welcoming by your wife when you are arrived and served everything you wanted
If you are still do it then "your palace" can't imperishable.

Take look to the noble person Muhammad saw
Never angry when he have to slept in front of the door,
placed by His turban,
because His beloved wife (aishah ra) don't know His coming.

Always smile even there is nothing to eat
There are no foods served when He is hungry
Sewed His rived cloths

Never desire you will be the queen in "your palace"
Beloved, spoiled and served by your husband
get everything you wanted
If thats you wanted, "your palace" will be like hell for you

Don't love too much your wife
Don't follow what ever your wife desired
If you do that then you will be misfortune
You can't see the different between white and black,
You can't see the right and the wrong
Take a look how was Allah rebuke your "Prophet"
when he made the lawful become unlawful
because he followed his wife desired.

Be emphatic to you wife
With your loves, asked her to obey Allah
Don't let her follow her willing
Take look how was Noah and Lot wifes
Under guidance of selected man,
they are become opposer
Your wife could be your enemy

Teach your wife
Make her like Hajar, the modesty women,
who have loyalty to her husband mission, Ibrahim as.
Make her like Maryam, the modesty women
who keep her self chaste
Make her like Khadijah ra, the modesty women
who would companion her husband Muhammad saw to do the holy mission

Your wife is your responsbility
Don't stop them to obey Allah
Let them become pious muslimah
Let them become Hajar or Maryam
Don't you shackle her with your ego

If you become a wife
Don't push your husband to do your desire
Don't push your husband to disobey Allah
Prepare your self like Hajar, who has loyalty to her husband mission
Prepare your self like Maryam, who could keep her chaste
Prepare your self like Khadijah, who could companion her husband to do the holy mission.

Don't you badger your husband with your whimper
Don't you badger your husband with your crying
If you do that
His love will forcing him become insurgent
don't

If you become a father
Be a wise father like Luqmanul Hakim
Be emphatic father like Ibrahim
Be affection father like Muhammad saw
Take your children to get to know Allah
Teach them how to do the righteous
Take them to obey Allah
Make them like the devotedly Yusuf
Make them like the obedient Ismail
Don't make them like the rebellios Kan'an.

Asked to Allah
Asked Allah, to make them become shalihah children
The children who will bring the happiness.
The children who love the prophet, his ahlul bayt and the salafusholih.

If you become a mother
Be a wise mother, a shaddy mother
Lead your children with your attention
Make them become pious muslims
Make them become the soldiers of Allah
Don't make them become lazy and rebel
This life is only for Allah Subhanahu Wa Taala

Isteri & Ibu

Seorang lelaki balik rumah. Dia jadi hairan giler. Halaman rumah berselerak. Surat di peti pos tak berambil. Anak-anak tengah main korek-korek tanah kotor, baju compang camping, penuh dengan tanah dan kotoran, rambut tak bersikat, tak bermandi, masuk ke pintu rumah lagi lelaki tu terkejut. Ruang tamu lagi teruk berselerak. Lelaki itu melaung nama isterinya. Sepi tiada jawapan masuk ke dapur. Sinki penuh dengan pinggan mangkuk tidak berbasuh. Periuk tidak bercuci. Mencari apa yang boleh dimakan tetapi tiada makanan yang dimasak. Masuk ke bilik air, baju masih belum berbasuh apatah lagi berendam. Lelaki itu cemas mencari isterinya. Dia bergegas ke tingkat atas melihat isterinya terbaring di atas katil sedang membaca buku. "Awak sakit ke?"tanya lelaki itu. "Taklah," jawab isterinya ringkas." "Kenapa teruk sangat rumah kita hari ni?" tanya si suami lagi sambil meletakkan tangan di dahi isterinya, kot-kot isterinya demam. Balas isterinya, "wahai suamiku, semalam semasa kita bertengkar, abg mengatakan yang saya ini hanyalah seorang suri rumah, duduk di rumah tidak sepenat diri abg yang duduk di pejabat, dan abg sering menanyakan apa kerja yang saya lakukan di rumah yang menyebabkan saya merungut kepenatan kadang-kadang. NAH, HARI INI SAYA TIDAK MELAKUKAN KERJA-KERJA YANG BIASA SAYA LAKUKAN SETIAP HARI"
Dari Ilham seorang lelaki...
"Wanita adalah insan istimewa, biarkan mereka terus membebel, merengek atau mengilai seperti pontianak. Seburuk-buruk perangai wanita, ia akan terusmelekat di hati kita selagi hayat di kandung badan... "Ibu, ibu... engkaulah ratu hatiku..." Bagaimana rasanya sehari tanpa ibu? I dunno lah anak-anak sekarang, tetapi when i was small, sekiranya emak tiada, semua jadi serba tidak kena! Usahkan seminggu, dua hari sahaja dia tiada di rumah, hidup bagaikan dah tak bermakna. Memanglah, mula-mulanya emak keluar rumah, hati melonjak HAPPINESS!!! Kalau mak tak ada, telinga boleh lega sebab if she's around, for sure 24 hours tak habis-habis berleter... pottttt peeettt pooott peettttt, boleh pecah ear drums. And if mak menjerit, boleh bergegar isi perut. Silap gaya, tingkappun boleh tercabut... And if mak takde, BangZaiiiiii!!! MerdeKa!!! FreeDoMmmmmm!!! Can do whatever!!! Boleh main beyblade sampai senja, boleh tido rumah kawan, boleh chatting sampai nak terkeluar biji bola mata, boleh bergayut kat talipon ngan"dear" sampai subuh and paling shiookkk, boleh ponteng solat!! But, the happiness does not long last. Masuk hari ke-2 dah terasa kehilangan. Sepi betul rasanya bila tak mendengar leteran mak. Rumah jadik sesepi-sepinya cam "haunted village". Pada ketika itulah baru kita sedar bahawa leteran mak yang seperti murai, sebenarnya penyeri rumah. Tanpa leteran itu, semunya seperti MATI... Without mum, hidup ni tak ada cabaran, not challenging, no suspense. Balik kul braper pun, takde orang nak membebel, takde orang nak pulas telinga. Our life graph becomes very the monotenous, then we realised, jari jemari mak yang suka cubit dah memiat telinga rupanya menjadikan hidup lebih bermakna.
Pendek kata, biarlah mak membebel sepanjang hari. Biarlah dia menjentik telinga. Tanpanya, hidup tidak berseri dan tak bererti. Demikianlah besarnya erti seorang EMAK, IBU, UMMI, MUMMY, MAMA in our life!!
Kau Isteri Ku... Bezanya antara ibu zaman dulu dengan ibu zaman skarang... Ibu sekarang tidak mencubit atau memiat telinga anak-anak. Itu mungkin one of the reason why anak-anak tak berapa takut and at times, hanya memekakkan telinga setiap kali ibu memberi "ceramah percuma". Mungkin anak-anak tak terasa kehilangan or boleh jadi melompat keriangan bila ibu takde kat rumah (for instance if she's gone for a short holiday). Budak-budak sekarang ramai kawan, banyak caranya mereka mengisi waktu. They will go for movies, clubbing, or most to most lepak kat happening places. As for me is different, if my wife is not at home, rumah boleh jadik porak-peranda. Memang true, jika isteri ada di rumah, kepala slalu pening. Pantang kalau isteri ada kat rumah and i'm off duty, sure at times boleh membuat kepala berserabut. Kalau madame takde kat rumah, alangkah tenteramnya hidup ini. Boleh buat apa yang kita suka. Boleh belengkar kat depan TV tanpa sebarang gangguan mental dah fizikal. Pendek kata, FreeeDoMmmmm lah!! But hairan bin ajaib, when dia betul-betul pergi meaning "She'sGone", aku pulak terasa separuh mati. Sehari dua memanglah shiookkkk, no one shouting from the kitchen for help, no one to komen this and that, no one to criticise. Everything will be smooth... Tapi, masuk hari ketiga, i felt something is missing. Lebih-lebih lagi bila tuala mandi dah berbau 'assshheemmmm', tak tahu mana nak carik yang baru. Colgate gigi dah abis, tak tahu kat mana dia stock up. Air suam dah abis, malas nakboil. Masuk hari ke-4, rindu mula terasa. Eventhough kat office, ramai yang cun-melecun, wajahnya yang dah ditatap sejak tarikh bernikah itu juga yang mengetuk pintu hati. Memang lah dia tak se-cun SITI NURHALIZA but the smile yang ikhlas, forever melekat kat hati and sukar ada pengganti. Apabila rindu mencengkam, semuanya jadi tak tentu arah. Tengok TV citer best pun jadik tak best. Nasik bungkus faberite jadik tak faberite. Makan kat 5 star hotel jadik rasacam makan kat kedai AA. Lebih-lebih lagi bila laundry basket dah makin bertimbun ngan baju kotor, fresh sluar dalam pun dah abis utk dipakai. Toilet dah mula licin berdaki... antai dah berbelak, tak dimop... Every nite, very lonely, baring atas katil nengok ceiling blindly... bila lonely gini, baru lah rasa benar kesepian. Jangan kata sebulan atau setahun... belum seminggu isteri takde kat rumah, aku dah terasa separuh pengsan. Bila bersendirian begini, dan terasa malam begitu dingin, barulah kita sedar betapa pentingnya seorang wanita bernama isteri...
So guys out there... jgn buli isteri kita. Kalau boleh, tolong dia buat kerja rumah. Bukan dok depan TV every weekend baca paper. Apa ingat dorang ni sumer kuli ke?! Maid ker?!! Kan dia tu bini kita, best fren kita, sweetheart kita... Ingat duit hantaran yang kita kasik dia masa nikah dulu cukup ker nak bayar gaji dia seumur hidup??!! And furthermore, kan sama2 keja carik rezeki, sama jugak lah buat keja rumah. Kadang2 bila poket kita sesak, tak ingat ker dialah orang yang paling terdekat kita nak kenyeng-kenyeng duit. Tak kesian ker nengok bini kita. Dah ler satu hari keja kat office, balik kena buat keja rumah lagi... penat tau!! Kalau akulah diberi peluang jadik seorang wanita... tak rela!!! So to all mums and wives out there... life will be meaningless without you mothers)
