I suddenly miss the feelings that we had when we meet. But now, i don't know, he's just being too serious and kept everything to himself but it's weird when he can be carefree with others. Or is it me that have changed?

But whatever it is... I always love him coz i know there's a good inside of him. He's a responsible man but i hope he 'jaga-jaga batasan dengan wanita'.

Assalamu'alaikum wrth,

Apa kabar diriku? Sudah cukup sedia menduduki peperiksaan? Sudah kau memahami dgn sebenar-benarnya? Adakah kau rasa penat dan tertekan? Sudah kau dapat pastikan bhw kau boleh ambil peperiksaan? Yuran kau bagaimana? Sudah dibayar?

Alhamdulillah sihat, dan belum... belum.. belum.. lagi. Aku tidak berapa confident lagi. Ada juga beberapa pelajaran dan topic membuat ku keliru. Ya! Ia amat memenatkan. Pulang sahaja dari kelas, ku terus tidur. Lemah badan ku. Entah mengapa sejak beberapa minggu ini, badan aku mengalahkan ku. Kadang-kala rasa penat semacam. Seperti tiada tenaga lagi. Kenapa ya? Well, badanku bukanlah seperti dahulu pada waktu belasan tahun. Sentiasa ada tenaga sehingga lewat petang. Tetapi sekarang pada umur 22 tahun, ku dapat rasa badanku berubah. Gaya pemakanan juga harus ku tukar.

Hmmm.... aku pernah terbaca surat kabar ttg khasiat dan kebaikan as-shifa atau sauda. Ia memberi tenaga pada badan kita dan lain-lain lagi. Mungkin sekarang, aku memerlukan ubat itu. Suatu hari, aku ingin cuba mengambilnya dan mudahan dapat rasa kesannya yang baik.

Aku mengadu pada abgku ttg duit yuran sekolahku. Aku memang tk nak menyusahkan hidupnya yg sekarang sempit dan susah. Dengan masalah aku, terutama sekali ttg wang menambahkan kesusahannya.

Kadang-kadang aku terpikir, jikalau aku ini dari keluarga yang kaya, tidak perlulah aku bergantung pada abg saiful dan boleh aku membantunya.

Tetapi, inilah qadak dan qadar Allah swt. Tidak semuanya kaya. Tidak semuanya miskin. Adakalanya, kesusahan yang diberiNya, membuat kita lebih bersyukur dan mengenal diri kita bahawa kita ini manusia yg kerdil dan lemah. Allah lah tempat kita bergantung.

Ku membaca tazkiyah nafs dan ada ayat dari Dr Ahmad Faried, tidak salah kita mengadu kpd Allah tapi jgnlah kita salahkan Allah akan nasib kita. Manusia ini perlu meluahkan perasaan. Jika terpendam, maka kusutlah perasaan dan pikirkan kita.

Abg saiful menelepon ku, aku mengadu padanya. Aku bercandang untuk kerja di Mcd ttpi ada keburukannya kerja di sana. Entah mengapa, aku hendak menangis dan ku cuba menahan sebak ku. Mungkin hari itu, aku baru menanya admin ttg yuran tertunggak dan waktu itu aku baru shj solat asar. Maka, perasaan gelisah masih bergelora yg membuat ku rasa sebak.

Abgku hanya mengatakan dia cuba mencari wang itu. Aku rasa amat bersalah padanya. Yalah, abg ingin memulakan hidup baru abg dan aku mula mencari masalah dan lemparkan padanya. Bagaimana hidupnya tidak rasa beban?

Aku harap dan inginkan hidup abgku FREE from MONEY PROBLEMS. That is the first change i want from him when he start his new life in Feb 2010. After many years, his life has been a struggle, hardship, tribulations. It was never easy for him. His time working in B&P might be a worst experience for him. Coz he find hope there for a better life but in the end it turns out bad. After this, he had to pick up the broken pieces once again and make sure that pieces of his life is solid and firm.

Dear hubby,

Work hard, don't gave up hope. Life is like a roller coaster. There's ups and downs. Once u have start ur new life next year, make urself happy, make ur parents happy. Provide ur parents with what they need. Show ur parents that u are now a better man, better son, a better person.

A road ahead will be struggle coz there's few bumps and red lights which u might have to put up with. But don't give up dear.... :) InsyaAllah, Allah is with those who have patience. :)

Love,

Ana. ;)

I'm worried with my schl fees

Assalamu'alaikum wrth,

Hatiku berat memikirkan masalah yuran sekolahku.... Ku buka buku, kertas-kertas tulis berantakan di meja makan... Tiba-tiba, aku tergerak hati untuk menyimpan receipt zuhri. Rupa-rupanya sudah 3 bulan belum ku bayar. Ya Allah... Bagaimanakah harus ku melangsaikan yuran itu?

Tadi ku cuba mengulangkaji, tetapi pikiran ku menggangu konsentrasiku. Bimbang... Jika aku belajar bersungguh-sungguh, akhirnya aku tidak dapat memasuki peperiksaan. Apakah tindakan segara harus ku ambil? Kerja di mcd terima panggilan pada lewat ptg hingga mlm? Ku amat tidak berminat kerja-kerja sebegitu kerana org-orgnya di sana dan waktunya tidak sesuai malahan jauh sekali dari rumahku. Juga, ku lihat aisyah berkerja di mcd sangat memenatkan. Dia selalu tidak dapat memberi perhatian sepenuh dalam kelas. Dia juga ketinggalan dalam pelajaran. Aku tidak mahu seperti dia....

Boleh kah aku bertahan kerja di sana sambil belajar? Peperiksaan semakin dekat.... Lagi beberapa minggu sahaja, 3 minggu lagi. Bagaimanakah aku mencari cukup wang sebnyk $525 dalam 3 minggu.

Bukan itu shj. Aku juga harus byr kepada mak, kakak dan adek. Wang belanjaan dan wang ku pinjam dari adek-beradek ku... Bagaimana pula dengan wang tambang? Wang tambang pun mahal... Sekurang-kurangnya $100... Itu juga ku harus fikirkan.

Aku nangis............ kerana tidak tahu sama ada aku dapat duduki peperiksaan atau tidak..... Biarlah ku bimbang dan stress ttg pelajaran daripada kewangan. Tetapi, inilah kesusuhan yg dialami pada setiap insan. Nasib hidup manusia berbeza-beza. Dan tahap dan cara ujian pada manusia pun berbeza-beza...

Ya Allah, permudahkan urusanku................

Palestine Will Be Free

Every day we tell each other
That this day will be the last
And tomorrow we all can go home free
And all this will finally end
Palestine tomorrow will be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free

No mother no father to wipe away my tears
That’s why I won’t cry
I feel scared but I won’t show my fears
I keep my head high
Deep in my heart I never have any doubt
That Palestine tomorrow will be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free

I saw those rockets and bombs shining in the sky
Like drops of rain in the sun’s light
Taking away everyone dear to my heart
Destroying my dreams in a blink of an eye
What happened to our human rights?
What happened to the sanctity of life?
And all those other lies?
I know that I’m only a child
But is your conscience still alive

I will caress with my bare hands
Every precious grain of sand
Every stone and every tree
‘Cause no matter what they do
They can never hurt you
Coz your soul will always be free

Palestine tomorrow will be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free

Antara kebenaran dan perasaan

Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullah..

Abg mungkin rasa tak usahlah ana taip ini di blog private ana kerana mungkin ini perkara leceh. Tapi inilah perasaan wanita.... dan inilah kebenaran di kaca mata ana dan terpulang pada abg sama ada setuju ataupun tidak.

Aku sudah lama tak menaip blogku ini. Sunyi sahaja... Tapi kali ni, entah mengapa aku hendak menaip perkara ini di blog ku. Salah satunya aku lebih senang meluahkan dan menjelaskan melalui menaip, dan aku selalu berkata-berkata di dalam benak ku.. Membuatku pening kepala memikirkannya. Kerana perkara ni benar-benar membuatku kecewa dan sedih sekali.

Ahad lalu, aku beraya dengan pekerja lama dengan abangku. Bila aku dapat tahu wanita itu juga ikut beraya sama, pada mulanya aku rasa ragu-ragu sama ada hendak ikut bersama atau tidak. Sebab aku tahu, aku akan lihat perkara yang sama antara wanita tersebut dengan abgku. Ia memang buat mata dan hatiku sakit. Tapi itu kejadian lama, mungkin keadaan sudah berubah. Itulah yang aku sangkakan. Maka aku cekalkan hatiku dan put on a happy mood utk beraya bersama mereka.

Wanita itu takutkan kucing. Memang silapku tidak mengurungkan kucing-kucingku di bilik. Kami menaiki kereta yang disewakan oleh dia tetapi abgku yang memandunya. Aku minta izin pada abg sama ada bolehkah aku duduk depan dan dia mengizinkanku. Tetapi akhirnya, abgku tegur, ana tidak ada hak duduk depan sebab itu bukan keretanya. Aku tertanya diri sendiri, kalau begitu, ketiga-tiga orang duduk belakang atau wanita itu berhak duduk di depan? Kalau dia duduk depan, aku memang tidak dapat terima sebab aku takut mereka semakin rapat. Mereka akan mula bergurau senda. Ana takut sekali ia akan berlaku.

Ana perhatikan sahaja, cara gaya abgku dan dia. Ada satu ketika ketika kami semua pergi ke carpark, abgku berjalan hadapan, wanita itu mula mengekorinya dari belakang supaya mendekatinya. Aku pula dibelakang bersama natasya sedang berbual. Ana tak dapat focus apa yang natasya ceritakan padaku. Terlihat senyuman yang terguris di wajahnya. Aku cemburu sangat. Mengapakah dia perlu dekati abg ku? Sepangjang perjalanan hari raya, ketika dia bersama abgku, dia mula kurang berbual dengan aku dan natasya. Aku selalu akan mulakan perbualan dan cuba ajak dia berbual dengan menanyakan soalan. Tapi dia pula tidak tanyaku apa-apa. Mungkin dia ingat aku ingin jaga tepi kain orang lain padahal tidak... Aku hanya ingin berbual sahaja dengan dia. Bila dia dengan abgku, sungguh rancak dia berbual. Aku tidak tahu apa niatnya sebenar.

Kalau aku, aku sendiri malu untuk berbual dengan lelaki mana-mana hanya berduaan, kalau khalayak ramai, seperti di dalam kelas atau bersama temanku disebelah, aku boleh berbual dengan lelaki lain. Di sekolah aku pun, aku tidak pernah berbuat sedemikian, berbual hanya aku dengan seorang lelaki. Kerana ini boleh menimbulkan sangkaan yang salah.

Di dalam kereta, abgku nyanyi lagu dan dia pun nyanyi bersama. Waaahh..kedua-duanya sudah tahu liriknya. Seperti pasangan bernyanyi bersama di karaoke. Sakit telingaku dengar. Berdesing. Tetapi abgku menjelaskan, abg tidak tahu dia pun nyanyi juga, dan dia nyanyi untuk hilang ngantok. Aku faham dan aku dapat terima. Aku terkejut, tiba-tiba abgku panggil ku 'Suhana'. Biasanya dia panggilku 'ana'. Macam panggil kawan gitu. Mungkin dia tidak sengaja, tapi kadang-kadang ia berlaku kerana keadaan atau pun suatu tanda. At that point of time, i don't feel connection with him. I just felt dia dan abgku memang sepasang yang sesuai. Sebab mereka ada perkara sama untuk berbual. Itulah aku rasa aku dicampak ketepi. Aku seperti orang penyibuk menggangu mereka.

Ketika menuju ke rumah natasya, aku lihat abgku mula berjalan sebelah-belahan dengan shiqin sambil bergurau gelak ketawa. Aku mula menjarak jauh diriku dari mereka. U know, what if i'm his wife, and he do that infront of people. People will think they're are a couple. Memang hatiku sedang bernangis tapi aku kuatkan hatiku.

Syaitan will always use women to seduce men. And they never fail for those who have weak iman. Walaupun niat kita, hanya berkawan atau ingin menolong kawan, ingin mendengar masalah wanita, syaitan will always take opportunity in what ever ways sebab memang hakikatnya mereka bukan mahram termasuk aku juga. Berhati-hatilah.. I'm saying this not just for abg but to me also...

Aku tidak boleh tidur sepanjang malam atas lantai yang sejuk dan keras. Air mataku menghujani pipiku. Salah aku kerana ganggu abgku dengan sms aku. Abgku sedang memikirkan pelbagai masalah tapi aku pula tambahkan masalah padanya. I'm really-really sorry for disturbing you.

Pada isnin malam, kita bertemu. Dan dia menjelaskannya pada aku. Aku sememangnya ingin ceritakan lagi seperti apa aku telah menaip di atas, tapi aku takut terguris hati abg. I'm afraid abg and her will get closer... I know, who am i to stop u to like anyone but if u're a guy who try to avoid and stop that will worsen our relationship, things won't happen. The thing is, did u EVEN TRY to lessen and jaga pergaulan antara wanita lain? Bila abg, berkata bahawa yang abg focus right now in 6 months is to start afreash and get job is your top priority and not thinking masalah dia dan abg kerana ini masalah remeh-temeh. Memang benar abg fokuskan begitu, tapi secara sedar atau tidak, hakikatnya, inilah yang berlaku pada abg dan dia. I really want to say this to you, but i'm just afraid to get u hurt.


But what abg says in trusting Allah, i really agree. Coz in the end, yang menentukan jodoh bukan kita tapi Allah. Dan ana tahu ana bukan mahram abg... Tapi ana doa moga-moga abglah suami ana. Ana juga berterima kasih pada abg kerana sentiasa ingatkan ana dengan nasihat-nasihat abg. InsyaAllah, i'll try my best to focus on my study. Bila abang berkongsi ana masalah abg, ana rasa diri ana hopeless sebab tidak dapat kurangkan beban abg. And I really hope that abg will get to take up in degree at SIM because i too want to see you rebuild your life, heading for a better future.

Akhir sekali, ana minta maaf jika ana tak jelaskan perkara ini pada abg pada isnin malam. Sebab pertama, ana banyak imbas kembali penjelasan abg yang ada ana tidak setuju. Ana akan sentiasa mengharap dan berdoa Allah permudahkan hidup abg... Thanks again abang, for your encouragement and your support towards me. :)

Wassalam....

‘Hijab martyr’ overshadows German Ramadan

BERLIN — Still stunned by the death of a hijab-clad woman by a German racist, German Muslims are observing the holy fasting month of Ramadan amid fierce rightist, anti-Muslim campaigns.
“Muslims are marking this year’s Ramadan in an unfriendly atmosphere,” Ibrahim El-Zayat, the director of the Islamic Assembly in German, told IslamOnline.net.

Ramadan, the holiest month in Islamic calendar, started in Germany on Friday, August 21.

“The holy month was even preceded by extensive media focus on Islamophobia in Germany following the death of Marwa (Al-Sherbini),” said Zayat.

Sherbini, 32, was stabbed to death by a 28-year German of Russian origin in a courtroom in the eastern city of Dresden on July 1.

He stabbed her 18 times before the pregnant woman was to testify against him for insulting her for wearing hijab.

Sherbini's husband, who was preparing to discuss his Masters, was also injured when he tried to intervene to protect her.

The gruesome murder has outraged Muslims in German and across the Muslim world.

Zayat said rightist parties have also stepped up anti-Muslim campaigns to win votes in next month’s parliamentary elections.

“Some rightist parties, especially in Cologne, are vying for votes by frightening residents from Islam and Muslims.”

Far-right “Pro-Cologne” organization has been campaigning against plans by Muslim groups to build a large mosque in Germany’s fourth-largest city.

Positive
Despite the rightist campaigns, Muslims have championed a series of initiatives to bolster community ties in the European country.

“Some municipalities have joined hands with locals groups to host collective iftar banquets,” Zayat said.

“These banquets are open to the needy, passers-by as well as Muslims.”

The Muslim leader also cited as a ‘major achievement’ the agreement among German Muslims on starting fasting on Friday.

German Muslims, hailing to different backgrounds, often disagree on the start of the holy fasting month of Ramadan.

Some follow their countries of origin on starting the fast, while others follow local Muslim groups in the European country.

There are more than 4 million Muslims in Germany, including 220,000 in Berlin, and Turks make up an estimated two thirds of the Muslim minority.

Islam comes third in Germany after Protestant and Catholic Christianity.

Luahan

Bismillah….

Assalamu’alakum wrth,

Ramadhan is here again. The noblemonth where our deeds multiplied manifold. Where our du’as is the most mustajab. Oppurtunity that comes once a year. It shouldn’t be spend on wasteful necessities like uneaten extra food.

My exam also happens to be on the month of Ramadan. Commencing from 31 Aug which will last for the next 2 weeks. Not just that, I’ve to rush KBK 6 on their subjects and oral for my 3 other classes. Also, need to chase them over their e-Learning. A lot of other things are still in my head. Headaches. It’s a burden on me because the more class I took, the more responsibility and task I’ve to cover. I really don’t want to focus more on my work doing things above. All I want is focus more on my coming up exams.

The most difficult subject for this semester is Ulum Syariah and Lughah. Ulum syariah, a lot of dalil and memorization. It’s tougher when most of the word has no shakal.

Lughah. Oh Allah! You know the situation is. Is not that I want to whine and moan about it. It’s just that, the responsibility of a teacher is to be in his best to teach us not to make us difficult. If he knows he couldn’t do it and he even confess in the 1st place that he’s weak in it, he shouldn’t took up Lughah. Haiz… This is what we call teaching for the sake of money. Well, not all asatizas are a good example. We’re humans are bound to make ridiculous mistakes, following too much on their nafs.

This is life. We moan, whine, grumble over difficulties made by humans itself. But, life shouldn’t be bleak all the time. It’s unfair to look life at just one side of the coin without looking on the other side. There’s life that we can enjoy, that’s permissible in Islam. It’s a small taste of enjoyment and pain for what it’s install for us in hereafter.

What I want in life at this time, is to be able to pass all my subjects, targeting all A’s. There’s nothing wrong getting A’s but it has to come with actions too. If u know, u do it. Knowledge is to be put use not for fame, debate with other, status.

Another thing is, to memorize Allah’s words, the noble Al-Quran. It always had been my dream and aims in my life. You know, I always envy and admire those who memorize the whole chapters. It’s the most difficult task among all other subjects. U can easily forget if don’t discipline yourself. Not many can do it. This would be the utmost challenging and tough task for me.

To a special man I admire, I hope you’ll find a stable job. Work hard to find one. You’re a great person even though not flawless because humans have weakness. But it’s just sad, if only you can afford to have a family and you’ll be a good father to the kids. It’s only one thing that’s hindering you. Time will tell… Maybe both of us are or especially me are not well-prepared to be a good wife and mum.

Kadang-kadang hati tak tenang, sebab memang kita nih bukannya pasangan. Kalau ada satu ikatan, ia menunjukkan komitment antara satu sama lain. Ana takut ia tak menjadi, dan satu hari nanti menyesal amat terbesar. Tapi ana pun seorang wanita seperti yg lain, yg inginkan kasih saying dan perhatian dari seorang suami. Memang benar kasih saying yg utama ialah Allah…tetapi mengapakah Allah ciptakan lelaki dan perempuan dan hidup berpasang? Allah pun dah berfirman… Antara tanda2nya dia meciptakan pasangan supaya kamu dapat hidup dengan kasih saying.

Amalan-amalan berkaitan dengan kelahiran cahaya mata

http://www.fadlan-mohd-othman.blogspot.com/

Amalan-amalan berkaitan dengan kelahiran cahaya mata mengikut Sunnah Rasulullah s.a.w.:

1- Azan dan iqamah di telinga bayi yang baru dilahirkan:
Hadith yang berkaitan dengan dua perkara ini adalah hadith yang lemah dan tidak kuat untuk dijadikan hujah dalam amalan ini sebagaimana yang telah dijelaskan oleh al-Syaikh Muhammad Nasiruddin al-Albani rahimahullah.
[Lihat Silsilah al-Ahadith al-Da'ifah karangan al-Syaikh Muhammad Nasiruddin al-Albani; nombor 321dan 6121.]

2- Meminta Allah Ta’ala memberikan perlindungan kepada bayi:
عن ابن عباس قال كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يعوذ الحسن والحسين يقول أعيذكما بكلمات الله التامة من كل شيطان وهامة ومن كل عين لامة.
[Hr al-Tirmizi Kitab al-Tibb, Bab Ma ja’a fi al-ruqya min al-‘ain, No 1986; dan Abu Daud, Kitab al-Sunnah, Bab fi al-Quran, No. 4112. Dihukum Sahih oleh al-Albani, antara lain dalam Sahih Sunan al-Tirmizi No 2060.]
Maksudnya: Maksudnya: Daripada Ibnu Abbas katanya 'Rasulullah sering meminta perlindungan untuk Hasan dan Husain dengan berkata "Aku melindungkan engkau berdua dengan kalimat-kalimat Allah yang sempurna daripada semua syaitan dan serangga atau binatang berbisa serta daripada semua pandangan mata yang memudharatkan."

Perhatian: untuk bayi lelaki dibaca (U‘izuka) manakala untuk bayi perempuan dibaca (U‘izuki)
3- Mendoakan keberkatan untuk bayi:
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُؤْتَى بِالصِّبْيَانِ فَيُبَرِّكُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيُحَنِّكُهُمْ.
[Hr Muslim, Kitab al-Adab, Bab Istihbab tahnik al-maulud ‘inda wiladatih, No 4000.]
Maksudnya: Daripada Aisyah bahawa Rasulullah s.a.w. sering dibawa kepadanya bayi-bayi lalu Baginda mendoakan keberkatan untuk mereka dan mentahnikkan mereka.
* Jadi berdasarkan hadith ini sekiranya bayi itu lelaki, boleh dibaca seperti berikut:
اللـّهُمَّ بَاركْ فِيْهِ.
Maksudnya: Ya Allah berkatilah dia.
* Manakala sekiranya bayi itu perempuan dibaca seperti berikut:
اللـّهُمَّ بَاركْ فِيْهَا.
Maksudnya: Ya Allah berkatilah dia.
Perhatian: untuk bayi lelaki dibaca (fihi) manakala untuk bayi perempuan dibaca (fiha).
4- Mentahnikkan bayi:
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُؤْتَى بِالصِّبْيَانِ فَيُبَرِّكُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيُحَنِّكُهُمْ.
[Hr Muslim, Kitab al-Adab, Bab Istihbab tahnik al-maulud ‘inda wiladatih, No 4000.]
Maksudnya: Daripada Aisyah bahawa Rasulullah s.a.w. sering dibawa kepadanya bayi-bayi lalu Baginda mendoakan keberkatan untuk mereka dan mentahnikkan mereka.
[Tahniik ialah: Mengunyah atau melumatkan makanan manis (khususnya kurma) kemudian meletakkannya di dalam mulut bayi pada langit-langitnya. .Tahniik dengan mengunyah adalah khas untuk Nabi s.a.w. Bagi orang lain, cukuplah sekadar melumatkan kurma dengan sedikit air lalu diletakkan pada langit-langit bayi berkenaan.]
5- Sembelih Aqiqah:
عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ كُلُّ غُلَامٍ رَهِينٌ بِعَقِيقَتِهِ تُذْبَحُ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ سَابِعِهِ وَيُحْلَقُ رَأْسُهُ وَيُسَمَّى.
[Hr al-Nasa’i, Kitab al-‘Aqiqah, Bab Mata ya’iq, No 4149; dan Abu Daud, Kitab al-Dahaya, Bab al-‘Aqiqah, No 2455; dan Ibnu Majah, Kitab al-Zabaih, Bab al-‘Aqiqah, No 3156. Dihukum Sahih oleh al-Albani antara lain di dalam Sahih Sunan al-Nasai no. 4231.]

Maksudnya: "Semua bayi tergadai dengan aqiqahnya yang disembelih bagi pihaknya pada hari ketujuh kelahirannya, dan dicukur kepalanya dan diberikan nama.
* Berapa ekor?
أَنَّ أُمَّ كُرْزٍ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهَا سَأَلَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الْعَقِيقَةِ فَقَالَ عَنْ الْغُلَامِ شَاتَانِ وَعَنْ الْأُنْثَى وَاحِدَةٌ وَلَا يَضُرُّكُمْ ذُكْرَانًا كُنَّ أَمْ إِنَاثًا.
[Hr al-Tirmizi, Kitab al-Adahi, Bab Ma ja’a fi al-‘aqiqah, No 1435; dan al-Nasa’i, Kitab al-‘Aqiqah, Bab Kam yu’aq ‘an al-jariah, No 4146-4147; dan Abu Daud, Kitab al-Dahaya, Bab Fi al-‘aqiqah, No 2451; dan Ibnu Majah, Kitab al-Zabaih, Bab al-‘Aqiqah, No 3153. Dihukum Sahih oleh al-Albani antara lain di dalam Sahih Sunan al-Tirmizi no. 1516.]
Maksudnya: bahawa Ummu Kurz telah memberitahunya bahawa beliau telah bertanya Rasulullah s.a.w. tentang aqiqah lalu Baginda bersabda, “Bagi pihak anak lelaki dua ekor kambing biri-biri dan bagi pihak anak perempuan seekor kambing biri-biri. Tidak kisah sama ada jantan atau betina.”
* Masa sembelih?
Masa yang terbaik ialah pada hari yang ketujuh:
عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ كُلُّ غُلَامٍ رَهِينٌ بِعَقِيقَتِهِ تُذْبَحُ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ سَابِعِهِ وَيُحْلَقُ رَأْسُهُ وَيُسَمَّى.
[Hr al-Nasa’i, Kitab al-‘Aqiqah, Bab Mata ya’iq, No 4149; dan Abu Daud, Kitab al-Dahaya, Bab al-‘Aqiqah, No 2455; dan Ibnu Majah, Kitab al-Zabaih, Bab al-‘Aqiqah, No 3156. Dihukum Sahih oleh al-Albani antara lain di dalam Sahih Sunan al-Nasai no. 4231.]
Maksudnya: "Semua bayi tergadai dengan aqiqahnya yang disembelih bagi pihaknya pada hari ketujuh kelahirannya, dan dicukur kepalanya dan diberikan nama.
Sekiranya tidak dapat dibuat pada hari yang ketujuh, boleh dibuat pada mana-mana hari selepas itu tanpa had berdasarkan perbuatan Nabi s.a.w. melaksanakan aqiqah untuk dirinya sendiri selepas dilantik menjadi Nabi:
عن أنس أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم عق عن نفسه بعدما بعث بالنبوة.
[Hr al-Tahawi dalam Mushkil al-Athar (1/461) dan al-Tabarani dalam al-Mu’jam al-Awsat (1/529). Dihukum Hasan oleh al-Albani dalam al-Silsilah al-Sahihah no. 2726.]
Maksudnya: Daripada Anas bahawa Nabi s.a.w. telah menyembelih aqiqah untuk dirinya selepas Baginda dilantik mejadi nabi.
Terdapat juga riwayat mengatakan sembelihan Aqiqah boleh dibuat pada hari ke 7 atau 14 atau 21,:
عن الميموني قال قلت لأبي عبد الله: متى يعق عنه؟ قال: أما عائشة فتقول: سبعة أيام وأربعة عشر ولأحد وعشرين.
[Tuhfah al-Maudud, oleh Ibnu al-Qayyim, hlm 45.]
Maksudnya: daripada al-Maimuni katanya 'Aku bertanya Abu Abdillah (Imam Ahmad), Bilakah disembelih aqiqah bayi? Jawabnya 'Adapun Aisyah, beliau mengatakan "Tujuh hari, empat belas hari dan dua puluh satu hari."
6- Cukur rambut bayi:
عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ كُلُّ غُلَامٍ رَهِينٌ بِعَقِيقَتِهِ تُذْبَحُ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ سَابِعِهِ وَيُحْلَقُ رَأْسُهُ وَيُسَمَّى.
[Hr al-Nasa’i, Kitab al-‘Aqiqah, Bab Mata yu’aq, No 4149; dan Abu Daud, Kitab al-Dahaya, Bab Fi al-‘aqiqah, No 2455; dan Ibnu Majah, Kitab al-Zabaih, Bab al-‘Aqiqah, No 3156. Dihukum Sahih oleh al-Albani antara lain di dalam Sahih Sunan al-Nasai no. 4231.]
Maksudnya: "Semua bayi tergadai dengan aqiqahnya yang disembelih bagi pihaknya pada hari ketujuh kelahirannya, dan dicukur kepalanya dan diberikan nama.
* Timbang rambut itu dan sedekah nilainya yang bersamaan dengan perak, ini lebih utama (atau emas jika tidak dapat dengan perak):
عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ عَقَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ بِشَاةٍ وَقَالَ يَا فَاطِمَةُ احْلِقِي رَأْسَهُ وَتَصَدَّقِي بِزِنَةِ شَعْرِهِ فِضَّةً قَالَ فَوَزَنَتْهُ فَكَانَ وَزْنُهُ دِرْهَمًا أَوْ بَعْضَ دِرْهَمٍ.

Maksudnya: Daripada Ali bin Abu Talib katanya Rasulullah telah menyembelih seekor kambing sebagai aqiqah Hasan dan berkata kepada Fatimah "Wahai Fathimah! Cukurlah kepalanya, dan bersedekahlah dengan perak yang senilai dengan timbangan rambutnya." Dan berat rambut Hasan ialah satu dirham atau kurang sedikit.
7- Beri nama:
عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ كُلُّ غُلَامٍ رَهِينٌ بِعَقِيقَتِهِ تُذْبَحُ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ سَابِعِهِ وَيُحْلَقُ رَأْسُهُ وَيُسَمَّى.

Maksudnya: "Semua bayi tergadai dengan aqiqahnya yang disembelih bagi pihaknya pada hari ketujuh kelahirannya, dan dicukur kepalanya dan diberikan nama.
8- Khitan:
Masa terbaik untuk khitan ialah pada hari ke 7:
عن جابر قال عق رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم عن الحسن والحسين وختنهما لسبعة أيام.
[Hr al-Baihaqi dalam al-Sunan al-Kubra (8/324); dan al-Tabarani dalam al-Mu’jam al-Saghir, hlm 185. Hadith ini dihukum kuat (Qawiy) oleh al-Albani menggunakan satu hadith lain di dalam Tamam al-Minnah, hlm 68.]
Maksudnya: Daripada Jabir katanya Rasulullah s.a.w. telah menyembelih bagi pihak Hasan dan Husain dan mengkhatan mereka pada hari ke tujuh.
Sekiranya tidak dibuat demikian, maka wajib dilakukan khitan sebelum baligh:
عن سعيد بن جبير قال سئل ابن عباس مثل من أنت حين قبض النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ؟ قال أنا يومئذ مختون قال وكانوا لا يختنون الرجل حتى يدرك
وقال ابن إدريس عن أبيه عن أبي إسحق عن سعيد بن جبير عن ابن عباس قبض النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وأنا ختين
[Hr al-Bukhari, Kitab al-Isti’zan, Bab al-Khitan Ba’d al-Kibar Wa Natf al-Ibit, No. 5941.]

Maksudnya: Daripada Sa'id bin Jubair katanya, Ibnu Abbas ditanya, 'Seperti siapakah kamu (berapa umur kamu) apabila Nabi s.a.w. wafat?' Katanya, 'Saya telahpun dikhatan pada ketika itu.' Kata periwayat, 'Dahulu mereka tidak mengkhatan orang lelaki sehinggalah dia baligh.' Ibnu Idris berkata daripada ayahnya daripada Abu Ishaq daripada Sa'id bin Jubair daripada Ibn Abbas katanya, 'Nabi s.a.w. wafat dalam keadaan saya telah dikhatan.'

Semoga Allah memberkati amalan kita dan menerimanya sebagai amalan salih. Amin

Dala’il an-Nubuwwah

Question


Could you please shed light on the proofs that Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is, indeed, a prophet?

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.

Dear questioner, we would like to thank you for the great confidence you place in us, and we implore Allah Almighty to help us serve His cause and render our work for His Sake.

The question you raised was abundantly discussed by Muslim scholars who tackled it from various angles and perspectives. Some mentioned the Prophet's miracles. Others cited the prophecies in previous scriptures. And other scholars focused on the Qur'an and its miraculous aspects.

Delving deeper in this issue, Dr. Muzammil H. Siddiqi, President of the Fiqh Council of North America, stated in his Khutbah at the Islamic Center of Orange County (California, USA) on 7 Rabi` al-Awwal 1424/9 May 2003:

Muslim scholars have discussed different ways to consider the Prophetic claim of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). This subject is known as Dala’il an-Nubuwwah (proofs of the prophethood). There are hundreds of scholars who wrote in the past and continue writing on this subject. Entire books and volumes have been devoted to this subject.

There are some who have mentioned his miracles and especially the miracle of the Qur’an as proofs of his prophethood. Some others have mentioned the prophecies of previous prophets about his coming as mentioned in the Bible, both in the Old Testament and the New Testament. Some have also mentioned prophecies in other ancient religious literatures of Hindus, Buddhists and Zoroastrians. Some have based the proofs on the Prophet’s own character, teachings and his achievements. This is indeed a vast subject and can be discussed in many different ways. It is important to know the proofs of his prophethood. Through this knowledge one can distinguish the true prophet from those who make false claims. It can also help us to explain the message of Islam to others.

Imam al-Bukhari and many other scholars of Hadith mentioned a very interesting historical report. From this report we learn how a reasonable leader approached this subject. It is mentioned that after the Treaty of Hudaibiyah, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent many letters to the neighboring chiefs and rulers inviting them to Islam. He sent Dihyah al-Kalbi (may Allah be pleased with him) with a letter addressed to the Eastern Roman Emperor Heraclius. He ruled a vast territory of the Middle East at that time. This letter was probably sent to him in the year 628 C.E. Heraclius was in Jerusalem at that time celebrating his victory over the Persians. The letter was given to the governor of Busra, who delivered it to the Emperor. The Emperor was intrigued by this noble letter. He wanted to know more about the one who sent him this letter and whether he was truly Allah’s Messenger.

There was a caravan of Arab traders in the city. Heraclius ordered the caravan people to be brought to his court. Abu Sufian ibn Harb was the chief of this caravan. He was not a Muslim at that time. Actually, he was then one of the enemies of Islam. Later when he became Muslim he reported this whole incident to `Abdullah ibn `Abbas (may Allah be pleased with both of them).

Ibn `Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Abu Sufian ibn Harb informed me that Heraclius sent a messenger to him while he was accompanying a caravan from the Quraish. They were merchants doing business in the Levant (Syria, Palestine, Lebanon and Jordan), at the time when Allah’s Messenger had a truce with Abu Sufian and the unbelievers of the Quraish. So Abu Sufian and his companions went to Heraclius at Ilya’ (Jerusalem). Heraclius called them in the court and he had all the senior Roman dignitaries around him.

He called for his translator who, translating Heraclius’ question, said to them, “Who amongst you is closely related to that man who claims to be a Prophet?”

Abu Sufian replied, “I am the nearest relative to him (among the group).”

Heraclius said, “Bring him close to me and make his companions stand behind him.”

Abu Sufian added [to Ibn `Abbas], “Heraclius told his translator to tell my companions that he wanted to put some questions to me regarding that man (the Prophet) and that if I told a lie they (my companions) should contradict me. By Allah, had I not been afraid of my companions labeling me a liar, I would have lied against him (the Prophet).”

[The dialogue then continued like this.]

Heraclius: What is his family status among you?

Abu Sufian: He belongs to a noble family among us.

H.: Has anyone else among you before him ever claimed the same (i.e., to be a Prophet)?

A.S.: No.

H.: Was anyone among his ancestors a king?

A.S.: No.

H.: Are the strong and powerful following him or the weak and poor?

A.S.: It is the weak and poor that are following him.

H.: Are his followers increasing or decreasing (day by day)?

A.S.: They are increasing.

H.: Does anyone among those who embrace his religion become displeased and leave the religion afterwards?

A.S.: No.

H.: Have you ever accused him of telling lies before his claim (to be a Prophet)?

A.S.: No.

H.: Does he ever betray or is he treacherous in his agreements?

A.S.: No, we are at truce with him but we do not know what he will do in it. (Abu Sufian said [to Ibn `Abbas], “I could not find an opportunity to say anything against him except that word.”)

H.: Have you ever had a fight with him?

A.S.: Yes.

H.: What was the outcome of your battles with him?

A.S.: The fighting between him and us was undecided and victory was shared between him and us by turns.

H.: What does he order you to do?

A.S.: He tells us to worship Allah alone and not to worship anything along with Him, and to renounce all that our ancestors had said. He orders us to pray, to speak the truth, to be chaste and to keep good relations with our kith and kin.

Heraclius said to his translator to convey to him,

[1.] I asked you about his family and your reply was that he belongs to a noble family among you. In fact, all the Messengers come from noble families among their respective peoples.

[2.] I questioned you whether anyone else among you claimed such a thing, and your reply was no. If you had said yes, I would have thought that this person is copying the previous person’s saying.

[3.] I asked you whether anyone of his ancestors was a king. Your reply was no. If you had said yes, I would have thought that the man wants to take back his ancestral kingdom.

[4.] I further asked you whether he was ever accused of telling lies before he said what he said, and your reply was no. So I wonder how a person who does not tell a lie about others could ever tell a lie about Allah.

[5.] I then asked you whether the rich people follow him or the poor. You replied that it was the poor who followed him. In fact, the poor are always the followers of the Messengers.

[6.] I asked you whether his followers are increasing or decreasing. You replied that they were increasing. In fact, this is the way of true faith, till it is complete in all respects.

[7.] I asked you whether there was anyone who, after accepting his religion, became displeased with and abandoned his religion. Your reply was no. In fact, this is the sign of true faith, when its delight penetrates the depths of the hearts.

[8.] I asked you whether he had ever betrayed and your reply was no. Likewise, the Messengers never betray.

[9.] I asked you what he ordered you to do, and your reply was he ordered you to worship Allah, and not to worship anything along with Him and forbade you to worship idols and ordered you to pray, to speak the truth and to be chaste. If what you have said is true, he will very soon occupy this place underneath my feet now. I knew from the scriptures that he was going to come but I did not know that he would be from you. If I could reach him I would go immediately to meet him and if I were with him, I would certainly wash his feet.

Heraclius then asked for the letter addressed by Allah’s Messenger to him. The letter was delivered by Dihya to the governor of Busra, who forwarded it to Heraclius. The letter said: “In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. This letter is from Muhammad, the Servant of Allah and His Messenger to Heraclius the ruler of Byzantines. Peace be upon him who follows the right path. I invite you with the call of Islam. Accept Islam and you will find peace. Allah will double your reward. But if you turn away then you will have upon you the sin of Arisiyyin (his subjects). ( O People of the Book! come to common terms as between us and you: That we worship none but Allah; that we associate no partners with him; that we erect not, from among ourselves, Lords and patrons other than Allah." If then they turn back, say ye: "Bear witness that we (at least) are Muslims (bowing to Allah's Will). ) (Aal `Imran 3: 64)”

Abu Sufian said [to Ibn `Abbas], “When Heraclius finished his speech and read the letter, there arose commotion and many voices in the court, so we were asked to leave.” (Reported by al-Bukhari)

It is possible that Heraclius accepted Islam secretly, but he was unable to declare it because he feared rebellion of his people. However, it is interesting that he tried to consider the Prophetic claim by considering:

1. The background of the Prophet

2. His motivations

3. His effects on his people

4. His character

5. His accomplishments

6. His message

Considering all these aspects of his life, he became convinced that Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was indeed the Messenger of Allah.
