Malaikat



Suatu pagi seorang bayi siap untuk dilahirkan ke dunia.

Dia bertanya kepada Tuhan,
Bayi : "Para malaikat di sini mengatakan bahawa  Engkau akan mengirimku ke dunia, tetapi bagaimana cara saya hidup di sana? saya begitu kecil dan lemah."

Tuhan : "Aku sudah memilih 1 malaikat untukmu. Ia akan menjaga dan mengasihimu."
Bayi : "Tapi di sini di dalam syurga apa yang pernah kulakukan hanyalah bernyanyi dan tertawa. Ini sudah cukup bagi saya."

Tuhan : "Malaikatmu akan bernyanyi dan tersenyum untukmu setiap hari dan kamu akan merasakan kehangantan cintanya dan menjadi lebih bahagia."

Bayi : "Dan bagaimana saya boleh mengerti saat orang-orang berbicara kepadaku jika saya tidak memahami bahasa mereka?"

Tuhan : "Malaikatmu akan berbicara kepadamu dengan bahasa paling indah yang pernah engkau dengar dan dengan penuh kesabaran dan perhatian dia akan mengajarkanmu bagaimana cara berbicara."

Bayi : "Apa yang akan saya lakukan saat saya ingin berbicara kepadamu?"

Tuhan : "Malaikatmu akan mengajarkanmu bagaimana cara berdoa."

Bayi : "Saya dengar bahawa di bumi banyak orang yang jahat, siapakah nanti yang akan melindungi saya?"

Tuhan : "Malaikatmu akan melindungimu walaupun hal itu akan mengancam jiwanya."

Bayi : "Tapi saya pasti akan sedih karena tidak melihatMu lagi."

Tuhan : "Malaikatmu akan menceritakan padamu tentang-Ku dan akan mengajarkan bagaimana agar kamu boleh kembali kepada-Ku, walaupun sesungguhnya Aku akan selalu berada di sisimu."

Saat itu syurga begitu tenangnya sehingga suara dari Bumi dapat terdengar dan sang bayi pun bertanya perlahan,

"Tuhan, jika saya harus pergi sekarang,bolehkah Engkau memberitahuku nama malaikat tersebut?"

Jawab Tuhan,
"Kamu akan memanggil malaikatmu, Ibu."

Memoirs of destiny.

  My ustazah had informed me that we need to believe in everything of what ALLAH had destined to us. Her father had said that even a single piece of a leaf will have the permission of ALLAH to drop. So, all incidents that happened to us are all destined. No such thing as coincidence. Why? Ask your faith. How you perceive your destiny is how you practice your way of life. If you do not do anything to alter your destiny, you will remain just as before. This is because we have to be smart enough to strive for success. ALLAH wants His slaves to think and make efforts in order to succeed  in all aspects of life. We need to compete and at the same time try not to forget our life "over there". If we try to attain success just for the world, you will lose you life over there. 
  Many of us think that everything is destined in this life. Yes you are right in term that something you have the choice to choose whether you want to do it or not. Let me give you an example, you are hungry and ALLAH had given you the money to buy something. So, you now have the choice to eat rice or fried noodles. By the way, you also have the chance to eat something that is not halal. For example, pork and something that you do not know the status of halal. I think this is clearly defined how you can choose your destiny in life and how you can make sure you will get the best in life. Allah had destined the destiny but you will have the ability and power to choose. Choose the best in order to sustain success in your life as a Muslim.

Nice thing to share.

A white man asks: "why shouldn't women in Islam a handshake with a man?"

Sheikh replied: "can you shake hands with Queen Elizabeth?

White man replied: "Oh of course it shouldn't be! Only certain people can shake hands with the Queen. "

A smiling Sheikh & said: "our women (the Muslims) is the Queen of &, the Queen should not shake hands with a man carelessly (which is not an unmarriageable person)."

White man ask again, "why Islamic women cover their hair and body?"

Sheikh smiled and got 2 chocolate, he opened the first one continues to the other closed. He threw them to the floor the dirtier.

Sheikh asks: "If I asked you to take one chocolate, where you choose?"

White man replied: "that is closed ..."

Sheikh said: "that's the way we treat our women and see."

White man replied: "Wow Islam is Amazing ..."

Do you know what is destiny?

  I have read an article entitled about rezeki as it was written by Imam Muda. So far as I know many people will only say, let him be..his/her rezeki. Forget it, its his/her destiny. Destiny is understood on how a person perceive it. Let's read about this story. It was told by the author who quoted one of the prophets who can communicate with animals. The prophet asked the ant whether he wants to have a supply for a sweet or not. Then, the ant replied, It's okay. I believe in ALLAH. I will only stay alive if Allah's will. Then, the prophet offered him to be give two sweets so that he can stay alive. Before that, the ant told the prophet that he will stay alive for about two months if he is given two sweets. 
  After two months, the prophet came back to visit the ant. He was so surprised as the ant would only ate half of the sweets. He scolded the ant as he lied to him. Then, the ant told him calmly, "I don't believe in human as I only believe in Allah. I'm afraid if you forget about me as destiny of death will come as you will not appear." The prophet now understood that Allah is the only determiner of destiny as no one can alter it even for a little thing. It does not mean that we have to be still and do not do anything to change our life as we have to. In Quran, it is stated that Allah will not change the fate of a person/community if they do not want to change. It is clearly stated that we need to change for a betterment or for our life as it will be determined by ALLAH SWT. He is the only god that we need to obey to ask for blessing and hope for His forgiveness. 

The sweetness of "Usrah"

  One of the members in my usrah told us that usrah is just like a person who drives a car and need to fill the fuel every time that person wants to have a journey. So, life should be represented as a journey and we need iman (symbolizes as usrah) to survive. Nowadays, life seems so hard as we are exposed to variety of media and types of sins in every aspect in life. Committing sins are just like a new trend for trendy teens and they have adopted in life. However, they tend to forget religion as the basic principals in life. Besides, those people who want to strengthen Islam are said to be narrow-minded as they are not as up to date as theirs. They prefer to have enjoyment in life rather than praying in the Mosque or Surau because they will say that Islam is not all about praying together. Yes, you are right. That is not the point, it is just the bless from the almighty ALLAH.
  We have a lot of things to be discussed in Islam as not many of us are able to understand all aspects of Islam in life. So, in usrah, we will be having presentation for every week as we need to give our understanding to the others as we can discuss deeply on what we do not understand for particular matter. It will be hosted by our own members in usrah and led by a naqib. Naqib will act as a leader and actively participate in the discussion and make a conclusion from every members in usrah. Actually, we will not do something rare in Islam as our main objective is to strengthen our faith. Sometimes, we have known that matter but the thing is, we tend to forget something that we have left it for a long time. So, it is the time for us to know and knowing what we do not know. 
  There are many thing that we can discuss in Islam as we have to be an open minded person. Some people would only accept Islam from Jemaah in a Mosque and do not appreciate some preaching in television or any programme. The thing is some people may possess same colour of hair but different type of heart. As stated in Quran, there is one and only organ in your body that will determine your behaviour called heart. Believe me, if you do not have any usrah member, try to find one. Try to find a Naqib. Try to form usrah and try to strengthen your faith for your own sake of life. May ALLAH bless you friends.

Taubat is not an option

Many of us think that if we do something wrong, it is a destiny that we should let it go. Sometimes, it is not right as we need to think behind the bars. If we carry on doing sins, what kind of life that we are going to create? Is there any bless that we hope for? So, in this case, Taubat is not an option, it is an obligation. Allah has already planned the destiny as we need to think of what we did. If we commit something wrong, we need to repent as sincere as you can, as enthusiastic as you can. This is because life is all about bless. Once you did anything wrong, look back on your past life. Think of your future. Do you think you want to be as the same as a sinner all the time? What will be happening on your upcoming life? Do you think you are ready enough to meet the almighty ALLAH? Ask yourself so that you will know the answer as ALLAH loves those people who like to repent and enhance their Ibadah. As life goes on, we should assume Taubat as an obligation part in our life as every cloud has a silver lining. Maybe we are destined to do such sin so that we will not repeat it in future and improve our life to the betterment. Life is about making choices. The best decision maker would be you.
