LIE base of disaster





LIE base of disaster

By
Ustadz Ahmas Faiz Asifuddin


Honesty should not be a rare commodity. That is the desire of every Muslim a righteous nature. If honesty coloring the life of every Muslim, surely goodness will illuminate the world. The Muslims, honesty is the perpetrator of the heavenly host candidates, the eternal happiness of the world is much better.

Imam Ibn al-Qayyim t put honest nature with the following words: "Honest is the title of a great nation. Departing from honest nature is awake all the grand standing and go straight for the perpetrators. Whoever did not go down this path, he will undoubtedly fail and perish . the honest nature of this, it would be distinguishable among the hypocrites and the believers would distinguishable between the Host with the Fire. " [1]

Any major nation in the world, anytime, must prioritize honesty. The Muslims should carry it more feasible. Allah Almighty says:

يا أيها الذين آمنوا اتقوا الله وكونوا مع الصادقين

O ye who believe! Bertaqwalah to Allah and be with those who honestly. [At-Tawbah / 9:119]

That's the nature of the demands of every human being. Honestly! Instead, each character must have hated falsehood and injustice deeds. If lies and injustice plague, then what happens is unfortunate, in this world and in the hereafter.

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, in the hadith that was delivered by Ibn Mas'ud radi anhu, said:

إن الصدق يهدى إلى البر, وإن البر يهدى إلى الجنة, وإن الرجل ليصدق (وفى رواية لمسلم: إن العبد ليتحرى الصدق) حتى يكون صديقا. وإن الكذب يهدى إلى الفجور, وإن الفجور يهدى إلى النار, وإن الرجل ليكذب (وفى رواية لمسلم: وإن العبد ليتحرى الكذب) حتى يكتب عند الله كذابا. رواه البخاري ومسلم

Surely honesty will lead to goodness, and goodness will lead to heaven. Surely someone will earnestly strive to be honest, until finally he became truly honest. And indeed lie will lead to crime, and crime will lead to hell. Surely someone will earnestly strive to lie, until he actually tertetapkan on the side of Allah as a liar. [HR. Bukhari and Muslim. The above is the pronunciation pronunciation Bukhari] [2]

In another narration in Sahih Muslim, Hadith begins with:

عليكم بالصدق ... وإياكم والكذب ...

Mandatory for you to be honest ...... and be careful, you do not ever lie .... [3]

Imam Nawawi rahimahullah explains additions history by quoting the words of the scholars, that in it there is an emphasis to be someone serious to be honest. I mean, seriously, and intends to really pay attention to honesty. Instead it should be careful not to lie and not to easy to lie. Because if someone is easy is lying, then he will be a lot of lying and eventually became known as the man who likes to lie. If one is accustomed to being honest, then Allah Almighty will set it as a really honest. Whereas if someone accustomed to lying, then Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala will assign a person known liar. [4]

Lie was forbidden and unlawful, can even keep the faith. Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar al-'Asqalani t bring the history of al-Bayhaqi in his saheeh isnaad, from Abu Bakr as-Siddiq radi anhu, he (Abu Bakr) said:

الكذب يجانب الإيمان

Lies will keep the faith. [5]

Furthermore, al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar rahimahullah quoting the words of Ibn Baththal rahimahullah, "If a man repeats kedustaannya to deserve the nickname weight as a liar, then he no longer received the title as a perfect believer, even excluding predicated as being hypocritical. That's why, after the hadeeth of Ibn Mas'ood radi ascertains anhu, Imam Bukhari t continue with the hadeeth of Abu Hurayrah radi ascertains anhu about the signs of the hypocrites. "

Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani rahimahullah later explained, "Abu Hurayrah radi anhu Hadith about hypocrites signs in question here include deeds lie, either by words or by deeds. signs first, lies in his words; marks the second , lie in amanahnya; Signs Third, lies in its promise. presents the Next Imam Bukhari hadiths about the type of legal threats in the afterlife for the liars, the mouth will torn down to ear as the mouth that is the land kema'siatannya. [6]

Imam Bukhari rahimahullah on the issue presented three consecutive hadith:

First Hadith: Hadith Abdullah bin Mas'ud radi anhu, already mentioned above.

The second Hadith: Hadith of Abu Hurayrah radi anhu that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

آية المنافق ثلاث: إذا حدث كذب, وإذا وعد أخلف, وإذا ائتمن خان. رواه البخاري ومسلم

The signs of a hypocrite are three: When he spoke, he lies; when promised, he reneged, and if given the mandate, he defected. [HR. Bukhari and Muslim] [7].

Third Hadith: Hadith Samurah bin Jundub Radhyallahu anhu, that the hadith which contains the type of legal threats in the afterlife for the liar is the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

رأيت رجلين أتياني, قالا: الذى رأيته يشق شدقه فكذاب, يكذب بالكذبة تحمل عنه حتى تبلغ الآفاق, فيصنع به إلى يوم القيامة. رواه البخاري

I saw two men (angels), they said: "The man you see torn his mouth to the ear, is a liar. He was lying with lies, deception brought it round on her behalf to reach the horizon, he is a liar then be made until the Day of Judgment" . [HR. Bukhari] [8]

It thus becomes clear, the fruit of honesty is a virtue and heaven. While the result of lies and deception are disastrous and hell. Lies also a kezhaliman to yourself, as well as kezhaliman to others. While injustice to others is also prohibited.

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said in a hadith Qudsi, narrated Allah Almighty says:

يا عبادي إني حرمت الظلم على نفسي, وجعلته بينكم محرما, فلا تظالموا. رواه مسلم

O servant hambuKu, verily I forbade injustice to me, and I make kezhal faith is forbidden anyway for one of you, so do not you each menzalimi. [HR. Muslims]. [9]

That is, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala has forbidden deeds unjust to His servants. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala forbid they are menzhalimi. Then it unlawful for a person to apply injustice to others. [10]

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam also reminded by the words he sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam:

الظلم ظلمات يوم القيامة. رواه البخاري ومسلم

Behaviour injustice that would result in the darkness (for the actors) on the Day of Resurrection. [HR. Bukhari and Muslim] [11].

Kezhaliman to others to form a violation of any rights of another, both violations of the blood, physical, property and dignity. Hence the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said on the Farewell Pilgrimage:

إن دماءكم وأموالكم وأعراضكم بينكم حرام كحرمة يومكم هذا فى شهركم هذا فى بلدكم هذا. رواه البخاري ومسلم

Indeed (each shed) the blood of you, (co-violating) between you and the property (another violation) in honor of you, is haram happened between you, your day is as illegitimate, in the month of yours and in your country this. [HR. Bukhari and Muslim] [12].

One must be free from unjust deeds that saved his life in the hereafter. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

من كانت له مظلمة لأخيه من عرضه أوشيء فليتحلله منه اليوم قبل أن لا يكون دينار ولا درهم, إن كان له عمل صالح أخذ منه بقدر مظلمته, وإن لم تكن له حسنات أخذ من سيئات صاحبه فحمل عليه. رواه البخاري ومسلم

Those who have the sin of injustice on his brother, both with regard to his honor or anything else, then he should try to release it today, before the coming of the day when there is no more money dinar and dirham (ie the Day of Resurrection). (If on the Day of Resurrection tyranny not regardless,) so if he has a pious charity, charity shalehnya be taken (given to brother) in accordance with the injustice he did, and if he did not have the good, the evil brother would be taken and dipikulkan him. [HR. Bukhari] [13]

Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani rahimahullah explained to his brother kezhaliman someone can relate with self-respect or other issues, including the issue of property kezhaliman others with all of its forms. So is tyranny in the form of injury, although only a slap-shaped and so on. [14]

Actions lie vast tracts of land concerned. Frauds involving employment, property, trade and so forth is a violation of the rights of others. Therefore every Muslim should strive earnestly to avoid lies, as emphasized in the hadiths above.

Thus, a Muslim should be the original personality is pribadai fair and honest. While the nature of lies and betrayals is not a Mu'min. Ibn Hajar rahimahullah bring history hadith al-Bazzar, Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas from radi dimarfu'kan anhu that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. He sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

يطبع المؤمن على كل شيء إلا الخيانة والكذب.

A believer can form his character by character anything but perfidy and falsehood. [15]

That is, a believer may develop his character into character, and anything other than a treasonous lie.

In conclusion, the above hadeeth explains the obligation to be honest and explain the prohibition on lying behavior.

But, in fact, why often happens dishonesty, fraud and embezzlement? In fact almost in all walks of life and mostly done by people who are formally registered as a Muslim?

The consequences of corruption, among others. Turns out corruption not only be done by great people who have great opportunities and great powers. But it can also be done by all levels of people with the slightest possibility and opportunity. Wholesalers can fruit corruption by cheating scales, cloth merchants of corruption through fraud on the size of the fabric, the little janitor offices can perform acts of corruption by not spending money that should return, an employee with a fool memorandum or receipt while shopping the store or the company precisely to support the making of a false receipt. Students can also act as a steward of financial corruption by making false reports or fictional, however small, or when doing fraud with customs cheating during exams.

Pendidikanpun institutions can commit fraud or corruption through engineering financial statements, or the efforts of other dishonest. If this occurs in educational institutions postscript is the agency of human cadres and leaders of the future, soon to be born human beings who are educated are not honest, be educated fraudsters, criminals and others.

Therefore, if a nation wants to be a great nation, dignified and respected, that nation must have the courage to establish itself based on honesty and must have the courage to leave the nature of falsehood, however weight.

Pious to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala and the fear of the threat siksaNya in the Hereafter, will be able to encourage someone to always be honest and avoid attitudes lie. If piety and fear of Allah Almighty has implanted in the soul, and has been formed, the means have been formed also control inherent in every individual Muslim. Thus everything will run smart insha Allah. The cost to make the teams should inspectors supervised again by another team, and the other to be watched again by another, will be suppressed and can be used for other purposes, such as improving the welfare of the poor and people development facilities towards the better. Allaah Waliyyut Taufiq.

BANS ARE jealous

By
Ustadz Al-Yazid bin Abdul Qadir Jawas


عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: لا تحاسدوا, ولا تناجشوا, ولا تباغضوا, ولا تدابروا, ولا يبع بعضكم على بيع بعض, وكونوا عباد الله إخوانا, المسلم أخو المسلم, لا يظلمه, ولا يخذله, ولا يحقره, التقوى ههنا, ويشير إلى صدره ثلاث مرات, بحسب امرئ من الشر أن يحقر أخاه المسلم, كل المسلم على المسلم حرام, دمه وماله وعرضه.

From Abu Hurairah Radhyallahu anhu he said, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "You do not envy one another, do Najasy each other, not hate each other, do back to back! Do some of you buy the goods being offered to others, and let you be servants of Allah, brothers. A Muslim is a brother to another Muslim, so he should not be menzhaliminya, abandoned, and humiliate. Piety is here-he gestured to his chest three times-. It is enough evil for a person if he insulted a Muslim brother. Every Muslim, unclean blood, his property, and honor the Muslims. "

TAKHRIJ HADITHs
Hadith is Saheeh, narrated by:
1. Muslim (no. 2564).
2. Imam Ahmad (II/277, 311-a concise, 360)
3. Ibn Majah (no. 3933, 4213-in brief)
4. Al-Bayhaqi (VI/92; VIII/250)
5. Al-Baghawy in Syarhus Sunnah (XIII/130, no. 3549).

Sharh HADITHs
• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam «لا تحاسدوا», meaning, do not some of you envy to others. The nature of envy exist in human nature because people do not like other people excelled in whatever goodness.

Associated feelings of envy, the people were divided into several groups:

First Group
The group is divided into:
1. attempting to remove the enjoyment that exist in the didengki in doing injustice to him, either by word or deed. Then try to turn it to his pleasure.

2. attempting to remove the enjoyment of those who envy his favor without wanting it changed him. It is the envy worst and ugliest.

This is a despicable envy, is prohibited and is a spiteful demon sins to Prophet Adam Alaihissallam when he saw him surpass the angels, because Allah created him with his own hands, ordered the angels bow down to him, teaching him the name of all things to him, and put he was near him. Satan never stopped trying to remove Adam from heaven Alaihissallam until he finally released her.

The nature of such malice is inherent in the Jewish people. Almighty Allah describes in many verses of al-Qur'ân about it. As his words:

ود كثير من أهل الكتاب لو يردونكم من بعد إيمانكم كفارا حسدا من عند أنفسهم من بعد ما تبين لهم الحق

Many of the scribes who would like if only they can refund you after you believe, disbelieve again, because malice in their hearts, after the truth clear to them ... "[al-Baqarah / 2:109]

Or word of Allah Almighty:

أم يحسدون الناس على ما آتاهم الله من فضله

Or do they envy the man (Muhammad) as a gift Allah has given him? [An-Nisa '/ 4:54]

Imam Ahmad and at-Tirmidhi vol vol hadith narrated from az-Zubayr ibn al-Awwam radi anhu from the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, he said:

دب إليكم داء الأمم قبلكم: الحسد والبغضاء, والبغضاء هي الحالقة, حالقة الدين لا حالقة الشعر, والذي نفس محمد بيده لا تؤمنوا حتى تحابوا, أفلا أنبئكم بشيء إذا فعلتموه تحاببتم? أفشوا السلام بينكم.

Disease peoples before you are attacked you have envy and hate. Hate is a cutter; cutter religion rather than cutting hair. By the One who is the soul of Muhammad in His hand, you will not believe until you love each other. Would you like me to show you something that if you do then you love each other? Spread the greeting among you. "[1]

The two groups
This group, if spiteful to others, they do not obey dengkinya feeling and doing injustice to those who envy it, either by word or deed. They are divided into two types:

1. Its not the power of envy dispelled from his heart. This feeling has mastered him. People who like this innocent.

2. Deliberately raises malice in him, repeating again. This is done repeatedly with the hope pleasure inherent in the didengki vanished. Such envy is similar to azam (determination) to disobedience. Such spiteful little chance to avoid injustice to which he acts jealous, though only with words. By its nature the injustice he is entitled to sin.

The three groups
This group, if envy, it does not expect favors those that existed at the didengki was missing, but he wants to get the same pleasure and wanted to be like him. If pleasure is chased pleasures of the world, then there is no value of kindness, like the words of the people who drunk the world, "... Hopefully we have a treasure as she has given to Qarun ..." (al-Qashash/28: 79 ). If it favors favors pursued hereafter, then it's good. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

لا حسد إلا في اثنتين: رجل آتاه الله القرآن فهو يقوم به آناء الليل وآناء النهار, ورجل آتاه الله مالا فهو ينفقه آناء الليل وآناء النهار.

Not to be envious except for two people: People who were al-Qur'ân by Allah, then he carry it out in the middle of the night and mid-day, and people are given wealth by Allah, then he menginfakkannya in mid-evening and mid-day. [2]

This is called the ghibthah envy.

The four groups
This group, if it finds the nature of jealousy in him, he tried to destroy them, be kind to the didengki, mendo'akannya advantages and tell the didengki. He was not just trying to eliminate envy on him, but he also tried to replace it with a sense of happy to see his brother better. These include the highest degree of faith. People who like this is a true believer loves for his brother what he loves for himself. [3]

A Muslim and Muslim women should not be jealous. Because he is a despicable nature, the nature of the Jewish people and can damage the charity. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala has forbidden men to expect all the advantages and virtues that Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala give it to others. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says,

ولا تتمنوا ما فضل الله به بعضكم على بعض للرجال نصيب مما اكتسبوا وللنساء نصيب مما اكتسبن واسألوا الله من فضله إن الله كان بكل شيء عليما

And do not be jealous of the gifts exceeded Allâh to some of you above others. (Because) for men there is a part of what they earn, and to women (also) no part of what they earn. Ask Allah to some of His bounty. Indeed Allah is aware of everything. [An-Nisa '/ 4:32]

• IMPACT OF BAD ATTITUDE Malicious [4]
People who envy will fall into some danger, such as:

1. With envy means he hates what Allah Almighty has set. Because, hate to favor that Allah gives to others is hatred of the provisions of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala.

2. Envy will remove kindness goodness spent as fire wood.

3. Malicious minded people who will always feel sad and difficult. Every time I see Almighty Allah favors upon those who envy it, he would grieve and difficult and so on.

4. Malicious mean like Jews. Padalah Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, which means: "Whoever imitates a people, he belonged to them [5]

5. Howsoever envy, it does not eliminate the Almighty Allah favors from others.

6. Envy can eliminate the perfection of faith, because the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

لا يؤمن أحدكم حتى يحب لأخيه ما يحب لنفسه

Not perfect faith from you until he loves for his brother what he likes for himself [6]

7. Neglect to malicious person from begging a favor to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala.

8. May cause him to underestimate the malicious pleasure of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala that exist paa him.

9. Envy, despicable character, because he was always watching the favors of Allah to others and try to prevent it from humans.

10. If people who envy (envy) to act injustice to the didengki, then it will take didengki goodness kindness on the Day of Resurrection.

The conclusion that envy is a despicable character, but unfortunately nature is still prevalent among the people. Wallaahul Musta'aan, nas-alullaahal 'AFWA wal' aafiyah.

• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam «لا تناجشواو«
Najasy interpreted by many scholars with Najasy in buying and selling. Raising the price of an item is done by people who are not interested in buying the interests of the seller so fortunately more or to harm buyers. Includes practice Najasy the praise that a seller of merchandise sold or neutralize a high price when he was not interested. What it does is to deceive the buyer so do not feel if I were buying overpriced. From Ibn 'Umar anhuma, bahwasa narrated the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam forbade Najasy. [7]

Ibn Abi Aufa rahimahullah said, "Nâjisy (actor Najasy) is a treasure eater of usury and traitors." [8]

Ibn Abd al-Barr rahimahullah said, "The scholars agreed that the offender had been adulterous Najasy to Allah Almighty if he knew that Najasy terlarangan." [9]

And what about the validity of the sale? There are scholars who argue, if the offender is Najasy retailer or person who ordered the seller to perform Najasy, the sale was illegal. Most of the jurists' found Najasy sale absolutely legitimate. This is the opinion of Abu Hanifa, Imam Malik, and is one of the history of Imam Ahmad. Only, Imam Malik and Imam Ahmad confirmed that the buyer has khiyâr (right to choose between continuing the sale or cancel it) if he does not know the exact condition and cheated by fraud beyond reasonable limits.

Or it could be interpreted Najasy the above hadith with the more common interpretation. That is all muamalah containing fraud or treason. In al-Qur'ân, Allah Almighty explains that the nature of the disbelievers and hypocrites is made of treason against the prophets and their followers. It is wonderful what the Abu Al-Athiyah,

ليس دنيا إلا بدين ولي س الدين إلا مكارم الأخلاق
إنما المكر والخديعة في النا ر هما من خصال أهل النفاق

The world is nothing but religion
and religion is nothing noble character
actual treason and deception in hell
because both the nature of hypocrites.

Makar allowed to do with people who are allowed to be disturbed, ie the infidels that must be fought, as the word he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam,

الحرب خدعة

War is deceit [10]

• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam «ولا تباغضوا»
The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam forbade Muslims hate each other after the same passions. Because Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala made them brothers. Brothers means love, not hate each other. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

والذي نفسي بيده لاتدخلوا الجنة حتى تؤمنوا, ولاتؤمنوا حتى تحابوا, ألا أدلكم على شيء إذا فعلتموه تحاببتم: أفشوا السلام بينكم

By the One who is my soul in His hand, you will not believe until you love each other. Would you like me to show you something that if you do then you will love each other? Spread the greeting among you. [11]

Allah has forbidden the Muslims all over the potentially enmity and hatred among them. Allah said,

إنما يريد الشيطان أن يوقع بينكم العداوة والبغضاء في الخمر والميسر ويصدكم عن ذكر الله وعن الصلاة فهل أنتم منتهون

Indeed Satan intends going to cause enmity and hatred among you because (drink) wine and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of Allah and prayer; Then not you stop (of doing it). [Al-Maida / 5:91]

Therefore, the act of playing is forbidden because it can lead to hostility and hatred. On the other hand, are allowed to lie to reconcile man and Allah advocated peace between them.

It was narrated from Abu Darda radi anhu, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said,

ألا أخبركم بأفضل من درجة الصلاة والصيام والصدقة? قالوا: بلى. قال: إصلاح ذات البين, و فساد ذات البين هي الحالقة.

'Would you like me to explain something better than the degrees of prayer, fasting and alms?' The Companions said, 'Yes.' The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said,' Reconciling the odds. And destruction of fraternal relations are cutting (religion). "[12]

The hate for Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, then it includes the strongest part of the faith and do not include hate prohibited. If one looks at his brother and then evil hateth his brother as evil, then he got a reward, although his brother filed an acceptable reason. Like the word 'Umar ibn Umar radi Khatthab, "We used to recognize you as the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam was in the middle of those of us, Revelation and Allah tells us about you. Remember that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam has died and the revelation disconnected. Know that we recognize you in accordance with our knowledge of you. Know ye, whoever of you show kindness, then we expect a good and loving it. And whosoever shows evil, we expect him and hate him so bad, while you are in the secret of your own and the Lord Almighty. [13]

• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam «ولا تدابروا».
Abu 'Ubaid said, "Tadâbur (back to back) are mutually cut ties and mutual silence."

From Abu Ayyub al-Ansari radi anhu, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said,

لا يحل لمسلم أن يهجر أخاه فوق ثلاث يلتقيان فيصد هذا ويصد هذا, وخيرهما الذي يبدأ بالسلام

It is not lawful for a Muslim silence his brother for more than three days, both met, but who is turned away from them and the other one was also turned away. Nicest guy in between is the start saying hello [14]

The Scholars disagree whether the attitude of 'silence' was considered to end with the formula? Some scholars say that the attitude of 'silence' that ended with greetings. It is narrated from al-Hasan and Imam Malik rahimahullah in the history of Ibn Wahb. From Abu Hurayrah radi anhu that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said,

لا يحل لمسلم أن يهجر أخاه فوق ثلاث, فمن هجر فوق ثلاث فمات دخل النار

It is not lawful for a Muslim silence his brother for more than three days. Whoever silence his brother for more than three days and then died, he entered Hell [15]

If on the third day they met, and one of his greeting and the other answers, the second entitled to a reward. But if not answered his greeting, then the answer is no bear his sin. [16]

• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam ولا يبع بعضكم على بيع بعض
From Ibn 'Umar anhuma that the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam said,

لايبع الرجل على بيع أخيه, ولا يخطب على خطبة أخيه إلا أن يأذن له

A person may not sell over the sale of his brother and his brother's proposal should not apply unless he allows it. [17]

From Abu Hurayrah radi anhu that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said,

لا يسم المسلم على سوم أخيه

A Muslim should not bid on items that are in the bidding brother [18].

The presence of the word "Muslim" in the above hadeeth indicates that it is the right of Muslims over other Muslims. This does not apply to non-Muslims. This is the opinion of al-Auzâ'i rahimahulah and Imam Ahmad rahimahullah. However, many fuqaha '(scholars Jurist) argued that the ban on the above hadith common to Muslims and non-Muslims.

Understanding sell goods on sale brother is the A to buy something from the B and then the C came to offer their goods to the A so he bought it and canceled the sale first.

• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam وكونوا عباد الله إخوانا,' O servants of Allah, be your brothers'.
In this piece there is a hint that this hadith if Muslims abandon mutual envy, Najasy each other, hate each other, back to back, and sell on the sale of his brother, then they will become brothers. [19]

• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam المسلم أخو المسلم, لا يظلمه ولا يخذله ولا يحقره,' The Muslim is a brother to another Muslim, he does not menzhaliminya, not abandon him, and not humiliate '.

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam was taken from the word of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala.

إنما المؤمنون إخوة فأصلحوا بين أخويكم

Indeed the believers are brothers, so make peace between the two sisters. "[Al-Hujurât/49: 10]

If the believers had brothers, they were ordered to do everything that can make the heart come together and are prohibited from doing all that hate each other's heart. They were also ordered to distribute or provide benefits for relatives and keep them from all that is harmful. Among the biggest disadvantages that must be removed from you is a criminal kezhaliman. Kezhaliman not only haram committed against Muslims, but also haram committed against anyone.

Among the things that are forbidden is abandoned other Muslims. A Muslim is commanded to help his brother Muslim. Prophet said sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

انصر أخاك ظالما أو مظلوما. قلنا: يا رسول الله! نصرته مظلوما, فكيف أنصره ظالما? قال: تكفه عن الظلم, فذاك نصرك إياه.

Help your brother or dizhalimi injustice. We asked, 'O Messenger of Allah, I help him if he dizhalimi. How can I help him if he menzhalimi? 'The Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam said, 'You prevented him from doing injustice, that your help against him. [20]

Among other things lying is forbidden to Muslims. A Muslim should not speak lie to his brother. He must speak honestly.

Among other things forbidden is insulting the Muslims. Because of the bad behavior comes from pride. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

الكبر بطر الحق وغمط الناس

Arrogance is to reject the truth and underestimating people. [21]

Almighty Allah says,

يا أيها الذين آمنوا لا يسخر قوم من قوم عسى أن يكونوا خيرا منهم ولا نساء من نساء عسى أن يكن خيرا منهن

O ye who believe! Let not a people ridicule other people, (because) may be those who (mocked) better than their (mock), and neither should women (mocked) other women, (because) may be women (mocked) better than women who mocks) ... "[al-Hujurât/49: 11]

So proud people that see themselves as perfect figure and see other people are always lacking, so he insults and belittling them. [22]

• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam »التقوى هاهنا, يشير إلى صدره ثلاث مرات», Piety was here-he said, gesturing to his chest three times-.
In the words of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, there are signs that someone in the glory of Almighty Allah is determined by piety. People who are despised by society because of weak and poor, could be more honorable in Allah the Almighty than honorable people in the world. Almighty Allah says, which means: "... Indeed, the noblest among you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous ..." [al-Hujurât/49: 13]

Pious person is located in the heart, no one can see nature except Allah Almighty. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said,

إن الله لا ينظر إلى صوركم وأموالكم, ولكن ينظر إلى قلوبكم وأعمالكم.

Verily Allah does not look at the face and the treasures you, but Allah looketh on the heart and your deeds. [23]

It could be that people who had a handsome face (beautiful), abundant wealth, respected in the world, but their heart is void of piety. Can also be people who do not have anything, but his heart is full of piety so that he becomes the noblest in Allah the Almighty. This condition often occurs. Mentioned in the hadith, of Haritha bin Wahb that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

ألا أخبركم بأهل الجنة: كل ضعيف مستضعف, لو أقسم على الله لأبره ألا أخبركم بأهل النار: كل عتل جواظ مستكبر

Would you like me to show you the heavenly host, ie any person who is considered weak weak. If he swore in the name of Allah, is granted. Would you like me to explain inhabitants of Hell are all the proud, haughty and arrogant. "[24]

From Sahl ibn Sa'd radi anhu, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "A man passed by the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam then he asked the man sitting next to him, 'What do you think about this guy?' The man said, "He was among those who honored. He deserves to be married if you are applying for, worth defending if he asked for defense, and words worth listening to. 'Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam silent. After that, no one else passed. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said to the person sitting next to him,' What do you think about this person? 'The man said,' O Messenger of Allah, he is a Muslim fakir. He deserves to be rejected if proposed, is not defended when asked for the defense, and his word is not worth the attention. 'Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam said, "This person (the second person) is better than the earth and other matters. [25]

• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam بحسب امرئ من الشر أن يحقرأخاه المسلم,' it is enough ugliness for a person if he insulted the Muslim brothers'.
That is, it is enough to be an evil if Muslims despise his brother Muslim. Because bad behavior is only encouraged his arrogance, arrogant but including the bad temperament. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "No person shall enter heaven in his heart there is pride, although only a grain of mustard." [26]

• The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam كل المسلم على المسلم حرام, دمه, وماله, وعرضه,' Every Muslim on Muslim unclean blood, property and honor '.
Word is among the frequently mentioned the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam in his sermons. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam deliver when hajj Farewell', Qurban day, the day of Arafah and the second day of the days Tasyriq. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

فإن دماءكم وأموالكم وأعراضكم عليكم حرام كحرمة يومكم هذا, في بلدكم هذا, في شهركم هذا.

Indeed, blood, property and honor upon you as you haram shirk your day, in your country and in this your month. [27]

In a history explained, some companions to travel with the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, then one of them sleeping. One of them went to the ropes and the sleeper pick, consequently the sleeper was shocked. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said,

لا يحل لمسلم أن يروع مسلما

Muslims should not scare other Muslims. [28]

From Abu Hurairah that the Prophet sallallaahu anhu radi 'alaihi wa sallam was asked about backbiting. He said, "wag (backbiting) is that you mention the evil brother." Abu Hurayrah radi anhu said, 'What do you think if what I say is true? "The Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam said, 'If what you say is true, means you have menggunjingnya. If what you say is not true, it means that you have lied. '"[29]

Arguments presented above confirms that Muslims should not be disturbed in any way, either word or deed, without a good reason. Almighty Allah says, which means, "And those who harm the believers and Mukminah without mistakes they do, then they have been bearing the lies and manifest sin." [Al-Ahzâb/33: 5]

Almighty Allah makes the believers brothers that love each other and love. Of Nu'man ibn Bashir radi anhu that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said,

مثل المؤمنين في توادهم وتراحمهم وتعاطفهم مثل الجسد, إذا اشتكى منه عضو, تداعى له سائر الجسد بالسهر والحمى.

Parable of the Faithful in love-love, love-love, and sympathy is like one body. If one diseased organs, all organs of the body complained of illness such as fever and could not sleep. "[30]

SIMPLE LIFE pleasure

By
Ustadz Muhammad Asim bin Musthofa



It is a human nature, it would be more consumptive waste of money, when starting mengeyam life and established economic convenience. As if wealth means a lot less if the owner is not using it for a greater purpose and luxury. For example, a lot of meeting the needs of the less important to him. That state of a person, it is easier to adapt to than to live the good life miserable.

Koran has confirmed that human typology, a waste of money and extravagance while in a state of being, avoiding the style of simplicity and balance.

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says:

ولو بسط الله الرزق لعباده لبغوا في الأرض ولكن ينزل بقدر ما يشاء إنه بعباده خبير بصير

And if God enlarges fortune to His servants they would be beyond the limits of the earth, but Allah revealed what He wills with size. Verily, He is knower (state) of His servants again Mahamelihat. [Asy-Syûra/42: 27].

'Ali bin Thabit rahimahullah said:

العقل آفته الإعجاب والغضب والمال آفته التبذير والنهب
التمهيد لابن عبد البر 7/250

Common weakness was proud of myself and the emotional
And disease treasure waste and robbery.

PRINCIPLE TWO EXPENDITURES IN ISLAM [1]
Globally, Al-Qur `an has explained how to manage the economy with all penjabarannya, which essentially covers two things. This is what is meant by "Usul Iqtishad", ie husnun nazhari fiktisâbil mall (skill of finding material) and husnun nazhar fi fi sharfihi mashârifihi (treasure spending prowess expenditure items on the right). See how Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala opens the way for the acquisition ma'îsyah in ways that will preserve Muru `ah and religion (halal jobs).

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says:

فإذا قضيت الصلاة فانتشروا في الأرض وابتغوا من فضل الله واذكروا الله كثيرا لعلكم تفلحون

Once accomplished the prayer, then bertebaranlah you in the land and seek the grace of God, and remember God a lot that you're lucky. [Al-Jumu'ah / 62:10].

Similarly, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala has ordered that the man be frugal in spending. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says:

ولا تجعل يدك مغلولة إلى عنقك ولا تبسطها كل البسط فتقعد ملوما محسورا
And do not make your hand on your neck and terbelenngu ye therefore you are handed a despicable and sorry. [Al-Isra '/ 17:29]

Furthermore, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala prohibits spending treasure on matters forbidden. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says:

إن الذين كفروا ينفقون أموالهم ليصدوا عن سبيل الله فسينفقونها ثم تكون عليهم حسرة ثم يغلبون والذين كفروا إلى جهنم يحشرون

As for those who disbelieve, spend their wealth to hinder (men) from the way of Allah. They will spend their treasure, then a penitence for them and they will be defeated. And to hell Jahanamlah those who disbelieve collected. [Al-Anfal / 8:36].

FORM MENTAL HOMELY
In order to create a good mentality associated with that lifestyle, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala commanded people that acted in fulfillment of their needs are modest, middle, and not wasteful in spending. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says:

يا بني آدم خذوا زينتكم عند كل مسجد وكلوا واشربوا ولا تسرفوا إنه لا يحب المسرفين

O son of Adam, wear beautiful clothes every (enter) mosque, eat and drink, and do not be extravagant. Allah loves not those who exaggerated. [Al-A'raf / 7:31].

ولا تسرفوا إنه لا يحب المسرفين

And do not exaggerate. Allah loves not those who exaggerated. [Al-An'am / 6:141).

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam has also stated in his saying, which means: "Eat, bersedekahlah, and use it in a state without wasting money and arrogance".

The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam warned that despite the lavish life with items that are permissible, could potentially drag the man to waste. It also shows a man does not give a proper appreciation of the property which is the favor of God, so that he entered in the behavior of a waste of money.

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, which means: "Stay away from bermewahan lifestyle. Verily Allah's servants were not people who bermewah-luxuries". See Shahîhah, 353.

In particular, these properties also become prominent criteria on self-Rahman ibâdur. That is the true servant of God. Allah says about them:

والذين إذا أنفقوا لم يسرفوا ولم يقتروا وكان بين ذلك قواما

And those who when they spend (property), they are not extravagant and not (also) a miser, and is (spending it) in the middle between the case. [Al-Furqân/25: 67].

They are not wasting money by spending beyond their needs. Nor is it the people who hunks to his family, so for his family was met and no shortage. They spend their wealth equitably. And the best affair is that the middle, not excessive or not miserly. [2]

WHY DO NOT wasteful?
Prohibition to humans from committing extravagance and waste of money and property owned, must contain a benefit. And the man was actually capable of knowing the wisdom behind the prohibition.

In the lesson, is to keep the wealth itself. That on the Day of Judgment later, the source was questionable opinions of the treasure, and it is with spending demikain. Spending money on property or case is not required, it is contrary to one of the goals of Islamic law, namely hifzhul-mall (keep the property). In this case, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala loveth not those who do mischief, especially if the property was used for immoral acts.

Noble companions of 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud radi mubadzdzirîn anhu has defined the meaning of (the people who do the waste). He radi anhu explained, mubadzdzirîn are those who spend (money) on matters that are not justified. [3] Thus, it is enough to be a material reflection, that God hates nerve (waste). [4]

The other hand, money is needed to meet the basic need of every person life. With money, one can more easily meet their needs. Similarly, the property, as well as life support, it also serves as a custodian Muru `ah (honor, dignity) someone in the social community.

Ibn Hibban rahimahullah said,

ومن أحسن ما يستعسن به المرأ على إقامة مروءته المال الصالح

(Including the most important thing to help someone is to uphold the honor of his good fortune).

With capital money in the hand, someone was able to keep religion, honor and glory of himself. He did not have to face the humiliating acts that can humiliate. Such as begging, begging, or even did not rule out stealing and corruption, and other acts that are not justified Shari'a. Because all the action was very clearly forbidden religion. In fact, with money in hand, one does not need to dig a hole with debt. Although owe including the Jaiz muamalah (allowed), but little or a lot of pressure will membekaskan own.

Life was like a wheel. Sometimes be above menangguk various pleasures. But who would have thought, a sudden be down, life is full of difficulties. So that no one else to blame but himself.

The harsh reality is more humiliating could have hit the household economy someone who may have previously abundant treasures. Then, because mistakes in managing finances or because income still mediocre, causing him wallow in the monetary crisis that did not know the time of expiration.

Therefore, Islamic law gives warning of the dangers as-nerve (waste) as well as excessive in spending. By considering this danger, then one can still have a balance sheet that remains safe, not large pegs than the pole.

Imam an-Nawawi rahimahullah explains reasons related to the prohibition squander. He rahimahullah said: "Verily, extravagance property would cause people to beg for what other people have. While the maintenance of the property for the benefit contained world. Maslahat The temporal stability will affect the welfare of his religion. Because with it, one can focus on the affairs of the afterlife "[5].

"Swelling in spending will cause shock to a person whose ordinary income he received. So it can potentially lead to economic paralysis, or by begging, criminal acts, Deviation, leaving themselves and the people who become dependents. Similarly, if a country is to take this policy, will result in bloated budget and do not have the strength to handle the affairs of the burden of the state government ". [6] Similarly, the existence of the countries with the luxury of running a government, it will eventually go the way of its collapse, unable to withstand the all difficult conditions. [7]

The benefits in terms of aspects, the command not to riotous lifestyle, having a positive influence back to that person. He will be more adaptable to cope with any change in the face of life. Sometimes fun and sometimes have to live with concern. And if the economy is destined families experiencing difficulties, then at least someone was not too surprised by the changes that occur suddenly.

Shaykh al-'Uthaymeen rahimahullah said: "People who used to live in luxury, will find it difficult to face various circumstances. Because it is possible to come to him the problems that do not allow the person to finish it in comfort". [8]

Then he rahimahullah describes a simple example. That people who have never walked barefoot at all. This guy always use sandals or shoes. If at any time, he is faced with a condition that required him to walk barefoot even though only 500 meters away, would be a severe difficulty. You may even be injured because they have legs rubbing against the ground. However, if he had been used to the ways of living a bit less comfortable, away from the facility, he will gain a lot of favor. In addition, the body is not accustomed to it, has no resistance (imuniatas). Consequently easily hurt, but has been running for a short distance. [9]

Another positive value of a simple way of life, to push someone into a smart personal gratitude and tolerance, respecting the favors of Allah slightest. Since there are many people who are economically below. With that, his faith will grow.

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

إن البذاة من الإيمان

Indeed, the simple life is a branch of faith. [10]

Cover
Al-i'tidal or wasath (choose one's attitude middle) is common in the Islamic spirit. In the context of lifestyle, frugality has harmony with it. Such behavior is very useful, both for individuals and the government. Meksi that does not mean a Muslim should remove meat menu-example-are actually affordable by it. Or then just buying and wearing clothes patches and look seedy or dirty. However, as revealed by Imam Ibn Katsiir, do not be miserly curmudgeon again, so do not give it to anyone. And do not overdo the use of money, so the resulting spending beyond their means and beyond the income generated. [11] Because of these two things be a source of reproach.

As Shaykh Sa'di says, this is a balance in the regulation of currencies, was at the corner of curmudgeonly nature and waste. That way, the business became stable and perfect. While outside, the only result of sin and evil, showing lack of reason and condition. [12] Therefore, given the benefits are so great, the kids were content to live a frugal trained and bersahaya.

RELIGION IS THE ADVICE

By
Ustadz Al-Yazid bin Abdul Qadir Jawas


عن أبي رقية تميم بن أوس الداري رضي الله عنه, عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أنه قال الدين النصيحة, الدين النصيحة, الدين النصيحة, قالوا: لمن يا رسول الله? قال: لله, ولكتابه, ولرسوله, ولأئمة المسلمين أو للمؤمنين, وعامتهم.

From Abi Ruqayyah, Tamim ibn Aus ad-of radi anhu, from the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam that he said: "Religion is advice, the religion is advice, the religion is advice". They (the Companions) asked, "To whom, Messenger of Allah?" Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "To Allah, His Book, His Messenger, or the Faithful Imam of the Muslims, and for Muslims in general."

This hadith has syawâhid (amplifier) ​​from some friends, namely:
• Abu Hurayrah; narrated by Imam an-Nasa-i (VII/157), at-Tirmidhi (no. 1926), Ahmad (II/297), and Ibn Nasr al-Marwazi, in Ta'zhîm Qadrish-Salah (II / 682 no. 748). At-Tirmidhi said, "saheeh hasan hadeeth."

The scholars of hadith experts explain that the above hadith saheeh.

BRIEF BIOGRAPHY narrators
He was a friend of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, Abu Ruqayyah, bin Tamim bin Aus bin Kharijah Jadzimah Su-ud bin al-Lakhmi al-Falasthini ad-from. Previously, he was a Christian, and as a monk and expert worship Palestinians. Then moved to Medina and embraced Islam along with his brother, Nu'aim, in the year 9 AH He settled in Madinah until he moved to Sham after the murder of Caliph 'Uthman ibn' Affan radi anhu.

He was a diligent to pray Tahajjud, always menghatamkan Al-Qur `an. He once told a story about Jassasah and Dajjal the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, then the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam convey the story to friends in the pulpit. It shows his virtue. He also fought with the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam.

DEFINITIONS ADVICE
The word "advice" comes from the Arabic. Taken from the verb "nashaha" (نصح), which means "khalasha" (خلص). That is pure and clean from any impurities. It could also mean "khâtha" (خاط), which is sewing. [2]

Imam al-Khaththabi rahimahullah explains the meaning of the word "nashaha", as quoted by Imam an-Nawawi rahimahullah, "said that" nashaha "taken from" nashahar-rajulu tsaubahu "(نصح الرجل ثوبه) when she sewed. So assuming they act advisor who always wants the good of the dinasihatinya, with a business man fixing his clothes were torn. "[3]

Imam Ibn Rajab rahimahullah quoting sayings of Imam al-Khaththabi rahimahullah: "Advice, is a word that describes a number of things. That is the good, the people were given advice ". It is also stated by Ibn al-Athir rahimahullah. [4]

In conclusion, the advice is the word used to express interest in providing goodness in people who were given advice.

ADVICE IS A RELIGION
This hadith is a brief and concise speech, which belongs only to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Speech brief, but contain different values ​​and important benefits. All shari'ah law, either usul (principal) and furu '(branches) are to him. Even the phrase "wa li Kitâbihi" only, he covers it all. Since the Book of Allah includes all issues of religion, both usul and furu ', deeds and beliefs.

Allah Ta'ala says:

ما فرطنا في الكتاب من شيء

We did not alpakan anything in this book. [Al-An `am / 6:38].

Therefore, there are scholars who argue the hadith is the axis of Islamic teachings.

In this hadith the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam named religion as counsel. Though the burden of shari'ah very much and are not limited to advice. So does mean he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam mentioned? The scholars have given an answer.

First. This means that almost all religions is advice, as well as word of his:

الحج عرفة.

Hajj it was before staying at 'Arafat. [5]

Second. Religion that is wholly advice. Because each practice is done without sincere, it does not include religion. [6]
Any advice for Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala demanding observance of religious obligations completely. This is called the degree of ihsan. It is not perfect advice for God without it. It is not impossible, if without the perfection of love that must and Sunnah, but also necessary seriousness closer to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, by implementing the Sunnah-sunnah completely and leave the things haram and makruh perfectly well. [ 7]

Third. The advice covers all parts of the Islamic faith, and charity, as explained in the hadith Jibril.

Thus it is clear information about the purpose of the words of the scholars he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam' religious advice ". Because counsel, sometimes significantly pensifatan something to the nature of the perfection of God, His Book and His Messenger. Sometimes a refinement deficiency that occurs in the form of advice to leaders and Muslims in general, as well as further details in this hadith.

Sharh HADITHs
1. Advice To Allah Ta'ala.
Al-Imam Muhammad bin Nasr al-Marwazi rahimahullah (d. 294 H) said: There are two legal counsel. The first mandatory, and the second sunnah. The counsel is obliged to God. That is very attention from advisers to follow what is God's love, to carry out the obligations, and to stay away from anything that Allah forbade. While counsel Sunnah, is to prioritize actions loved by Allah than the actions of a loved one by himself. That is, when faced with two things in a person, the first for the benefit of himself and another for his Lord, then he start doing something for his Lord first and put off what is destined for himself.

Such an explanation for God's counsel globally, both mandatory and the Sunnah. As we shall mention some of the details in order to be understood more clearly.

The advice is obliged to God, is to stay away from his ban and carry out His commands with all his limbs while able to do so. If he is unable to perform his duties for any reason, such as illness, obstructed, or any other cause, then keep it seriously intends to implement this obligation, if the barrier had been lost.

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says:

ليس على الضعفاء ولا على المرضى ولا على الذين لا يجدون ما ينفقون حرج إذا نصحوا لله ورسوله ما على المحسنين من سبيل والله غفور رحيم

There is no sin (because not go jihad) upon those who are weak, for those who are sick and for those who do not earn what they spend, where they advise to Allah and His Messenger (love of God and His messenger). There is no way at all to condemn those who do good. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. [At-Tawbah / 9:91].

God is calling them as "al-muhsinîn" (those who do good), because their deeds advisory for God with their hearts were sincere when they blocked for jihad with soul body.

Under certain conditions, sometimes the servant is allowed to leave a practice, but not allowed to leave the advice to God, though due to illness is not possible for him to do something with their body, even with oral, and others, but his mind was still healthy, then not lost duty to provide advice to the heart of God. That is, with remorse for his sins and sincerely intend to carry out the obligations imposed Allah to him, and left nothing that God forbade it. If not (ie no heart practice, such as love, fear, and hope in Allah and the intention to carry out the obligations and restrictions left him), then he is not referred to God as the giver of advice to heart.

Also includes advice for God is obedience to His Messenger sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallamdalam things he enjoined to man by his Lord commands. And includes advice compulsory for God is not pleased with the hate and the people who commit adultery disobedience, obedience and love to those who obey Allah and His Messenger.

While counsel Sunnah, not obligatory, is to fight tooth and nail to put God more than all that he loved in the hearts of all limbs and even his own, even more so than others. Due to an adviser, if sincere to his loved ones, he will not be concerned with him, even working hard doing the things he loved to make people feel happy and in love, then so is the advice giver to God. Those who do worship nafilah (sunnah) to Allah without coupled with hard work, he is an advisor based on levels charity, but not to actually implement the advice completely. [8]

Imam an-Nawawi rahimahullah mentions, including advice to Allah is to wage jihad against the people of kufr to Him and preach to invite people to the path of Allah. The meaning advice to God, is to believe in Allah, to deny Him ally, did not deny his nature, mensifatkan God with all perfect and noble nature, purify the God of all the properties that are less, perform obedience to Him , distanced adultery, love for God, hatred for his loyal (love) those who obey Him, those who rebel against Him, jihad against the infidel to Him, acknowledging His blessings, and give thanks for all His blessings ... [9]

Ibn Rajab rahimahullah mentions, including advice to God, is to wage jihad against the people of kufr to Him and preach to invite people to the path of Allah. [10]

Shaykh Muhammad Hayat as-Sindi (d. 1163 AH) rahimahullah said, "I mean for God's counsel, is to be a servant to make his sincerity to his Lord and believe He is the god of the Almighty in His Uluhiyyah, and clean of stains shirk, counter, resemblance, and all that was not appropriate for him. Allah has all the attributes of perfection according to his majesty. A Muslim must glorify Him with the maximum exaltation, doing good deeds and inner Zahir and away from God's love what God hates, loves anything that God loves and hate what God hates nothing, believe nothing that God made something that is true as a truth, and a false as a falsehood, his heart filled with love and longing Him, grateful for His favors, wait for the disaster that happened to him, and pleased with his taqdir. "[11]

2. Advice For Qur'aan.
Al-Imam Ibn Nasr al-Marwazi rahimahullah said, "The counsel for the Book of Allah, is to love and glorify his position, because the Qur'an is Kalamullah, eager to understand, have a great concern to contemplate, serious and concentration reading to get an understanding of their meaning in accordance with the will of God to be understood, and after practice he understood its contents. Similarly, an advising of the servant, he will learn from the people who will advise him. Whenever he was given a book with the intent to understand, he practice what is written will. Similarly, advisers to the Book of Allah, he is required to understand it in order to practice it because God according to what Allah loves and ridhai, then disseminate that he understood the man, and studied al- Qur'an constantly a foundation of love with him, the depraved moral and civilized with adab-adabnya. "[12]

This is manifested in the form of faith in the divine scriptures and believe that Allah revealed the Qur `an is the end of all these books. Al-Qur'an is the Word of God is full of miracles, which are always maintained, both in heart and in oral. God Himself guarantees it.

Allah says:

إنا نحن نزلنا الذكر وإنا له لحافظون

Verily We the adh-Dhikr (Al-Qur `an) and we own a guard. (Qs al-Hijr/15: 9). [13]

According to Shaykh Muhammad Hayat as-Sindi rahimahullah advice for his book is to believe Al-Qur `an is Kalamullah Ta'ala. Mandatory believing anything is in it, shall practice, glorify, read it with truth, mengutamakannya than in others, and caring for science-knowledge. And in it there is science about God Uluhiyyah countless. He is a close friend of the people who walk the path of God, and is wasilah (path) for people who are constantly in touch with God. He as air eye for people of knowledge. Anyone who wants to arrive at their destination, it must take its course. Because if not, he would have lost. If a minister knows greatness Kitabullaah, surely he would not leave at all. [14]

Specifically, counsel for the Book of Allaah be done by the following points.

a. Reading And Memorizing Al-Qur `an.
By reading al-Qur `an will get a variety of science and knowledge. Besides, it would give birth to the purity of soul, clarity of feelings, and strengthen piety. Reading al-Qur `an is good and who is intercession on the Day of Judgment will be given later.
Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

اقرؤوا القرآن فإنه يأتي يوم القيامة شفيعا لأصحابه ...

Read Al-Qur `an, as on the Day of Resurrection he will be coming to give intercession to those who read it. [15]

While Al-Qur `an is a great virtue. Through memorization, the heart will be more alive with light Qur'aan, people will also be shy and honor. Even with the Memory, rank in the Hereafter will be higher, according to the number of rote owned.
Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

يقال لصاحب القرآن: اقرأ وارتق ورتل كما كنت ترتل في الدنيا, فإن منزلتك عند آخر آية تقرؤها.

It says to those who memorized the Qur `an," Read and catching! Please read Tartil as you read it in the world with Tartil. Due to your position (in heaven) in accordance with the last paragraph you read. " [16]

Read Tartil and a good voice, so that readings can be entered and impregnated. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

ليس منا من لم يتغن بالقرآن.

Not one of us who did not read al-Qur `an to the rhythm. [17]

b. Mentadabburi The Values ​​Contained Within each verse.
Allah Ta'ala says:

أفلا يتدبرون القرآن أم على قلوب أقفالها

Are they not mentadabburi al-Qur `an or their hearts locked up? [Muhammad/47: 24].

c. To teach Muslim Generation To Take Role In Keeping Al-Qur `an.
Learning and teaching of Al-Qur `an is the key to happiness and 'Izzah (glory) of Muslims. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

خيركم من تعلم القرآن وعلمه.

The best of you are those who learn and teach Al-Qur `an. [18]

d. Understand and to implement them.
A Muslim must read Al-Qur `an and should try to understand and try to implement them. However, the fruit of reciting the Qur'an will be we get after understand and practice it. Therefore, it would be bad if we understand the verses of Al-Qur `an, but did not want to practice it.

Allah Ta'ala says:

يا أيها الذين آمنوا لم تقولون ما لا تفعلون كبر مقتا عند الله أن تقولوا ما لا تفعلون

O you who believe, why is it that you said something that you did not do? It is most hateful in the sight of Allah that you say nothing you do not. [Ash-Shaff/61 :2-3]. [19]

3. Advice to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam.
Al-Imam Ibn Nasr al-Marwazi rahimahullah said: Meanwhile, counsel to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam in his lifetime, is to mobilize all abilities seriously in order to obey, defend, help, give property (for the struggle for din Allah) if he wants it, and hasten to love him.

As for after he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam died, then with concern and sincerity to seek Sunnah, moral, and adab-adabnya, glorify ordered, committed and in doing so, so angry and turn away from the people who run the religion as opposed to the Sunnah, angry with the people who wasted his Sunnah is only to benefit the world, although he believes will be the truth, love people who have a relationship with him, from the intimate relatives or relatives, as well as from the Emigrants and Helpers, or from a friend who had accompanied him for a moment in the night or during the day, and by following his guidance in terms of look and dress. [20]

What is meant by counsel to His Messenger, is to believe he is the prime seutama creature and his lover. God sent him to his servants, in order that he remove them from all darkness to light, to explain to them anything that makes them happy and what is making them miserable, explaining to them the straight path of Allah so that they pass the pleasures of heaven and avoid the pain of the fire of hell, and with love, glorify, follow and no narrowness in his chest against anything he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam decide. Subject and obedient to him sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, like the blind follow the way of the sharp eyes. The man who wins, is the one who wins bring love and devotion to the Sunnah. And the losers, were blocked from following his teachings. Those who obey the he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, and he obeyed God. Those who oppose it, he has opposed Allah and shall be repaid in kind. [21]

It is applied in the form of justifying his treatise, justifying delivered, both in Al-Qur `an and Sunnah, as well as to love and obey him. Love the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam is to ittiba' (follow) him and obey him.
Allah Ta'ala says:

قل إن كنتم تحبون الله فاتبعوني يحببكم الله

Say (O Muhammad): 'If you love Allah, then follow me (Muhammad), surely you loved God. " [Ali 'Imran / 3:31].

Obedience to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam is a form of obedience to Allah Ta'ala. Allah Ta'ala says:

من يطع الرسول فقد أطاع الله

Those who obey the Messenger, then he has obeyed God. . . [An-Nisa '/ 4:80].

4. Advice To The Muslim leaders.
Al-Imam Ibn Nasr al-Marwazi rahimahullah said, "The advice to the leaders of the Muslims, is to love their devotion to God, love their honesty and justice, loving union of the people under their aegis, hate to cause disunity against them , believing that obedience to them is obedience to God, hates people who are out of obedience to them (ie hate people who do not recognize their authority and assume their blood halal), and love their glory in obedience to God. "[22]

Shaykh Muhammad Hayat as-Sindi rahimahullah said, "The meaning of 'advice to the leaders of the Muslims' counsel is directed to their rulers. Namely to receive their orders, hear, and obey them in things that are not immoral, because there is no obedience to the creature in the Al-Khaliq immoral. not fight them as long as they do not disbelieve, trying to improve their situation, they clean up the damage, ordered them to goodness, banning them from misguidance, and pray for them to get good. because, in their kindness means the good of the people, and the damage they mean the destruction of the people. "[23]

Referred to as the leader of the Muslims, are the rulers, their representatives, or the clergy. To be obeyed ruler, the ruler of the Muslims must themselves.

Allah Ta'ala says:

يا أيها الذين آمنوا أطيعوا الله وأطيعوا الرسول وأولي الأمر منكم

O you who believe, you obey Allah, obey the Messenger and the rulers of you. [An-Nisaa ': 59]

Advice for leaders, is to love kindness, truth, and justice, not because of the individual. Because, through kepemimpinannyalah benefit we can be fulfilled. We are also pleased with the unity under the leadership of their just and hates disunity under arbitrary rulers.

Advice for leaders can also be done by way of helping them to always be on the path of truth, keeping them in the truth, and remind them in a good way. Including the principle of Ahlus Sunnah wal-Jama'ah, is not provocation or incitement to rebellion to authority, even though the ruler was doing injustice. Not to be provocative, both from the pulpit, where specific or general, or other media. Because this violates the direction of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam and Salafush-Salih.

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

من أراد أن ينصح لذي سلطان فلا يبده علانية ولكن يأخذ بيده فيخلوبه فإن قبل منه فذاك و إلا كان قد أدى الذي عليه.

Anyone who would like to advise the ruler, he must not reveal openly. Hold his hand and let him be alone with him. When the authorities would listen to this advice then it's the best. And when the rulers were reluctant (not accept) then indeed he has the mandate of duty imposed on him. [24]

There is really no good for people who do not want to advise rulers in a good way. Also no good, for the ruler who oppresses his people and to silence those who try to advise her, even her ears tightly so as not to hear the voices of truth. Under these conditions, the opposite is humility and brokenness. It's very possible that if the Muslims have strayed and away from Islamic values.

As for the scholars, counsel made to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Prophet, by way refuted heretical many opinions regarding the Al-Qur `an and Sunnah. Explaining the various hadith, whether authentic hadith or Da'eef. The scholars also have a great responsibility to always advise the rulers, and constantly calling for the authorities to arbitrate the law of God and His Messenger. If they are negligent in carrying out this responsibility so that no one is calling for the truth in front of the ruler, then Allah will menghisabnya. To the clergy, let them constantly trying to come to convey the truth and good advice to the government (ruler) and patient in doing so, as well, including sentences convey seutama-major jihad. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

أفضل الجهاد كلمة عدل (وفي رواية: حق) عند سلطان جائر.

Jihad said the main thing is justice (in another narration: the truth) in the presence of arbitrary rulers. [25]

The scholars will also be held accountable, if they actually praised the arbitrary rulers and eventually became their mouthpiece.

Meanwhile, we advice to the scholars, is to constantly remind them of responsibility, trust hadiths they convey, if indeed they are people who can be trusted. Also by the way do not revile them, as this may reduce the authority and make them as material charges.

5. Advice For The Muslims.
The meaning of "advice to the Muslims in general," is to help them in goodness, forbid them to do evil, to guide them to the guidance, forcefully preventing them from straying, and loving kindness to them as he loves her for yourself, because they are all are servants of God. Then a servant had looked at them with a single runway, the glasses of truth. [26]

Advice for the Muslim community, conducted by leading them to a variety of things for the better world and afterlife. It is unfortunate, Muslims have neglected this task. They do not want to advise others Muslim, particularly with regard to the affairs of the Hereafter.

Advice is done should not be limited to words, but must be followed by deeds. As such, advice will be evident in the Muslim community, as a cover ugliness, complement deficiency, a deterrent against danger, giving benefits, enjoining nahyu evil, great respect, affection toward smaller, and avoid fraud and malice .

6. The Most Good Advice Among Muslims.
The best advice, the advice is given when someone asked for advice. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

و إذا استنصحك فانصح له ...

If someone asked for advice to you, then encourage it. [28]

Including the best advice, the advice of a person to another person when that person (who advised) not in front of him. That is done in a way to help and defend him.

7. People Who Give Advice notch.
Charity of the apostles is advising people to something that is beneficial to the world and the hereafter.

God said to tell his servant, the Prophet Hud Alaihissallam:

أبلغكم رسالات ربي وأنا لكم ناصح أمين

I convey these messages unto my Lord, and I'm just giving you reliable advice. [Al-A'raf / 7: 68].

God also told the Prophet Salih Alaihissallam speaking to his people:

فتولى عنهم وقال يا قوم لقد أبلغتكم رسالة ربي ونصحت لكم ولكن لا تحبون الناصحين

So Salih left them, saying: "O my people, indeed I have delivered unto you the mandate Rabbku, and I have to advise you, but you do not like people who give advice". [Al-A'raf / 7:79].

One should feel quite noble deeds servants carry the most precious of God, the prophets and apostles.

Thus the nature of advice. Hopefully God made us as His servants who always encourage one another. So it has some of the properties of the lucky ones, as already outlined God with His words:

والعصر إن الإنسان لفي خسر إلا الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات وتواصوا بالحق وتواصوا بالصبر

For the sake of time. The man really is in loss, except those who believe and do good deeds, and counsel advising that obey the truth and honor so advise counsel patience. [Al-'Ashr/103 :1-3].

GIVE LEGAL ADVICE
It was narrated from Jareer ibn 'Abdillah radi anhu, he said:

بايعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم على إقام الصلاة, وإيتاء الزكاة, والنصح لكل مسلم.

I membai'at Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam to keep his prayers, practice regular charity, and advise every Muslim. [29]

Imam Nawawi rahimahullah said, "The law of giving advice is fard kifaya. Means that, if there is someone already working on it gugurlah obligations on the other., And this advice is mandatory according to their capabilities."

Shaikh Sulthan Nazhim Muhammad said, "I think, advising law and its interpretation as a whole has been described, there is a fard 'ain, there is a fard kifaya, there are mandatory, and there is also a sunnah. Due to the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam explained , religion is advice. while the Law was obligatory, sunnah, fard 'ayn and fard kifaya. "[30]

Manners GIVE ADVICE
Among advising Islamic adab, which advises his brother with unknown others. Because, whoever covered the ugliness brother Allah will cover the ugliness in the world and the hereafter.

Some scholars say, whoever advises someone and only two of them, then that's the real advice. Whoever advises his brother in front of so many people and such a humble man who denounced advised.

Fudhail bin Iyadh rahimahullah said, "A believer, the cover is a disgrace and advise. While the wicked are those who destroy and condemn." [31]

Al-Imam Ibn Hibban rahimahullah (d. 354 H) said, "As we have mentioned, giving advice is the duty of all human beings, but in a pass-not-should not be secret. Because, whoever advises his brother in front of others, it means he has denounced., and whoever advised him in secret, then he has to fix it. Indeed delivered with great attention to fellow Muslim brother is constructive criticism, are more likely to be accepted than convey the intent reproach. "

Then al-Imam Ibn Hibban rahimahullah mentions the sanadnya up to Sufyan, he said: "I asked Mis'ar, 'Do you like it when someone else tells deficiency-flaw?" He replied,' When I came to is people who tell lack-flaws-way menjelek things about me, then I'm not happy. But when that came to a giver of advice, then I'm happy '. "

Abu Hatim (Imam Ibn Hibban) rahimahullah said, "Advice, if done as what we have mentioned so will perpetuate the love and the cause of the realization of the right ukhuwah (brotherhood)". [32]

Al-Imam Abu Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Sa'id Ibn Hazm rahimahullah (d. 456 H) said, "It is obligatory for a person to always give advice, both of which were given advice like it or hate it, offended or not offended. 'If you give advice then conveyed in secret, not in front of others and simply by giving cues, without plainly. Unless advised people not understand isyaratmu it must plainly. should not give advice on the condition to be accepted. If you exceed the limit adab- adab is the injustice then you, not giving advice, and obedience crazy and insane power, not giving the right message and executing ukhuwah. This is not including the common law and the law of friendship, but the law of the jungle like a ruler with his subjects, and a master with his harem ". [33]

Imam Shafi'i rahimahullah said in sya'irnya:

تغمدني بنصحك في انفرادي وجنبني النصيحة في الجماعة
فإن النصح بين الناس نوع من التوبيخ لا أرضى استماعه
وإن خالفتني وعصيت قولي فلا تجزع إذا لم تعط طاعة

Cover the fault with your advice when I was alone.
Avoid advised me in the middle of the crowd.
Because providing advice in front of many people.
Tantamount to slander, I am not willing to hear it.
If you menyalahiku and do not follow what I said.
So do not be surprised if the advice is not followed. [34]

WHY EDUCATION IS IMPORTANT?

By
Shaykh Saalih bin Fawzaan al-Fawzaan


Islam, the religion is perfect, very concerned about the growth of generation. For that, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam has commanded us to choose shalihah wife, loving and many descendants. From shalihah wives, it is expected that children born righteous-shalihah, strong in religion. So that Islam became powerful and enemies feel daunted. Thus, the mother has a dominant role in building the foundation and print generations, because he will educate children in obedience and devotion to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala.

Attention Islam other related and were influenced by the education of children, the Prophet recommends that parents give a good name to her children. A name will help make an impact on children. So much history that describes the Prophet to change some of the names that are not in accordance with Islam.

Islamic assertiveness in educating these, can also be examined from the words of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, that when the child is seven years of age, both parents ought to teach and instruct children to do the prayers. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

مروا أولادكم بالصلاة وهم أبناء سبع سنين واضربوهم عليها وهم أبناء عشر وفرقوا بينهم في المضاجع

Command your children to pray when he was seven years old, and beat if reluctant to pray when it is ten years old, and be separate beds between them. [Reported by Abu Dawud, and Nashiruddin Classed as saheeh by Shaykh Muhammad al-Albani in Saheeh Sunan Abi Dawood, no. 466]

Commands taught prayers, means also includes things related to prayer. For example, procedures for prayer, thaharah, and the obligation of prayer in congregation in the mosque, so that children can be more close and intimate with the Muslims.

The blow to the child, Islam allows parents to hit, if the child is lazy and reluctant to perform prayers. Except to note, pukulah is within the limits tarbiyah (education), the condition is not a dangerous punch, punch nor toy, so there is no effect whatsoever. Among its objectives, so that children feel the punishment if he did leave the prayer disobedience.

But we see at this time, blow, as one wasilah in tarbiyyah, many parents abandoned. The excuse given, because of his affection for the child. Though true compassion should be realized with the given level. And one of them struck the child while committing immoral.

He also ordered the parents that separate the beds of children who have entered the age of ten. The purpose of this separation, is to avoid libel lust.

Therefore, if the elderly parents responsible for their children while they sleep, and how when they get out of the house and mingle with the community? Then of course the parents have a responsibility greater. Parents should always supervise their children, keep him away from bad friends and socially more misleading. Since tarbiyah not only when they are home, but also when the kids are out of the house. As parents need to know where and with whom their children associate. Remember, parents are the leader, he will be required responsibilities.

كلكم راع و كلكم مسئول عن رعيته

Each of you is a leader, and each of you will be held accountable on that you lead. [Agreed alaih].

The goodness of the child the cause of goodness, especially for the elderly and their families, and in general for the Muslims. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

إذا مات ابن آدم انقطع عمله إلا من ثلاث صدقة جارية وعلم ينتفع به وولد صالح يدعو له

If someone has died, then terputuslah all deeds except for three cases: Sadaqah jariyah, useful knowledge, or a righteous child who prayed for his parents [HR at-Tirmidhi].

Therefore, the educational success of a child with kindness and obedience, have benefits and a great influence for good parents, while alive or after death. When parents are still alive, the child will be entertainment, happiness and qurrata-a'y un (Air liver). And when the parents have died, the righteous children will always pray for forgiveness and for their parents bersadaqah.

Conversely, how poor parents whose children were not righteous and he was insubordinate. The rebellious child can not benefit the parents, whether alive or dead now. Parents will not be able to pick the fruit, but only harm and evil. Things like this can happen if the parents are not paying attention or tarbiyyah education of their children.

One example in tarbiyah true, that parents ought to be fair to all children. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam warned us.

فاتقوا الله واعدلوا بين أولادكم

So keep your duty to Allah all of you, and do your fair to your children. [HR Imam al-Bukhari]

Never happen, when one of his friends to give to some children, and then he went to the Prophet so that he is willing to be a witness n. N then he asked: "Do you give all your children like that?"

He replied, "" No, "then the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:" Seek witnesses other than myself, because I do not want to witness the ugliness. Was not going to get you happy, if you give me something similar? "

He replied: "Yes," then said the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam: "Then do it!"

Surprisingly, there are some parents, when advised about tarbiyah child, it did rebuttal. The old man said that goodness is in the hands of God, or guidance lies in the hands of God. It is true that the guidance is in the hands of God, sebagaiaman Allaah says:

إنك لا تهدي من أحببت ولكن الله يهدي من يشاء وهو أعلم بالمهتدين

Surely you will not be able to give instructions to the person you love, but Allah gives guidance to those who wills, and Allah knows those who would accept guidance. [Al-Qashash/28: 56].

But keep in mind, the factors that cause the kindness and guidance, is because the role of parents. If the parents have been instrumental to the fullest and has fulfilled its obligations in tarbiyah, the guidance is in the hands of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. Meanwhile, if the parents are negligent and ignore tarbiyah, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala will reply with iniquity and evil to children. Remember the words of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

كل مولود يولد على الفطرة فأبواه يهودانه أو ينصرانه أو يمجسانه

Every child is born in a state of nature, then both his parents that caused the child to be Jewish, Christian or Zoroastrian [HR Imam al-Bukhari].

Here we must understand correctly, how great the role of parent to child. Parents have the responsibility of forming the faith and character of children. Of the parents that will be realized figure of a child's personality.

Finally, let us keep the character of our children. That is the nature of truth and goodness over. Because everything we do on the child, will be required pertanggungjawabnya before Allah Almighty.

Attention to children is a very important case and a great responsibility before God. Therefore, the best man, the prophets always pray for the good of themselves and their children.

Prophet Ibrahim prayed Alaihissallam:

رب هب لي من الصالحين

Yes Rabbku, anugerahkanlah me (a child) which includes people who worships. [Ash-Shafât/37: 100]

ربنا واجعلنا مسلمين لك ومن ذريتنا أمة مسلمة لك وأرنا مناسكنا وتب علينا إنك أنت التواب الرحيم

Our Lord, make us both submissive people to you, and (make) among our offspring a people submissive unto Thee, and show us the ways and places of pilgrimage us, and accept our repentance . Surely You are the recipient repentance, Most Merciful. [Al-Baqarah / 2:128]

Prophet Zakariya pray Alaihissallam:

قال رب هب لي من لدنك ذرية طيبة إنك سميع الدعاء

That's where Zakariya pray to his Lord and said, "Yes Rabbku, grant me from You a good boy. Truly you are the Hearer of prayer." ['Ali' Imran / 3:38].

Likewise with the Salaf our predecessors, they prayed:

ربنا هب لنا من أزواجنا وذرياتنا قرة أعين واجعلنا للمتقين إماما

Our Lord, Grant unto us wives and our offspring as our hearts penyenang (us), and make us priests to those who fear Allah. [Al-Furqân/25: 74].

Thus the prophets, although it has position and proximity to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, they still continue to pray expectantly, asking Allah Almighty to be awarded and shalihah righteous offspring, then what about us? Of course, we are more motivated and eager to do it.

Therefore, let us pray and strive to provide education and tarbiyah to our children based on the din (religion) is saheeh and straight.

Tawheed, ROAD TO JUSTICE AND PROSPERITY




Tawheed, ROAD TO JUSTICE AND PROSPERITY

By
Ustadz Al-Yazid bin Abdul Qadir Jawas


Tawheed POSITION IN ISLAM
Monotheism is the base of thanksgiving for a Muslim. [1]

الحمد لله وحده, والصلاة والسلام على نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه ومن تبعهم بإحسان إلى يوم القيامة, وبعد:

Alhamdulillaah, we always offer unceasing gratitude to Allah Almighty Lord of mercy, the Most Merciful. He has given two incomparable blessings, that favors Islam and Sunnah favors. With both favor it, people will get happiness and be saved from the punishment, both in this world and in the hereafter.

Therefore, for the servants of God who have received such favors, should tie it with gratitude, and always ask God, to be a servant is always grateful. And proof of gratitude for the blessings of a Muslim is, by the pleasure of being Muslim that Allah as his Lord, Islam as his religion and the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam as a prophet.

May the blessings and greetings to Prophet Muhammad always tercurahkan-seal of the prophets, there is no prophet after-which has delivered a treatise, to fulfill the mandate, advising the Ummah and Ummah have leadeth into the light path and straight, which they had previously been in manifest error.

The obligation of a true Muslim is a follower of the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam faithful, following his lead, imitating his example, carry-Sunnah and the Sunnah Sunnah defend, and keep away from shirk and bid'ah. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam was sent by God, to persuade mankind that God mentauhidkan and keep all kinds of shirk.

Phrase of unity for the Muslims, especially the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah is a phrase familiar, because monotheism to them, as a way of worship which must be implemented in everyday life and which was first preached before the other.

Allah Ta'ala says:

فاعبد الله مخلصا له الدين ألا لله الدين الخالص

... So Worship Allah by purifying devotion to Him. Remember, only religion Allah belongs the net (of shirk) ... [Az Zumar/39: 2, 3]

Allah Ta'ala also says:

وما أمروا إلا ليعبدوا الله مخلصين له الدين

Though they are not ordered except to worship Allah in order to purify the devotion to Him ... [al Bayyinah/98: 5].

The whole of the prophets and apostles عليهم الصلاة والسلام have preached monotheism to his community in every period (generation) it. As Allah says:

ولقد بعثنا في كل أمة رسولا أن اعبدوا الله واجتنبوا الطاغوت

And indeed, We have sent to every nation a messenger, (to call) to worship only to Allah (ie mentauhidkanNya) and away from the Evil ... [an Nahl/16: 36].

And His words:

وما أرسلنا من قبلك من رسول إلا نوحي إليه أنه لا إله إلا أنا فاعبدون

We did not send any Messenger before you (O Muhammad) but We revealed to him: "Behold, there is no god (who are entitled to diibadahi correctly) besides Me, ye Worship Me". [Al-Anbiya / 21: 25].

Also His saying:

فأرسلنا فيهم رسولا منهم أن اعبدوا الله ما لكم من إله غيره أفلا تتقون

Then We sent to them a Messenger from among themselves (who said): "Worship ye God, never was god of truth for you in others. Then, why do you not fear Him (Him)?" [Al Mukminun / 23: 32].

All the apostles begin their mission to his people to monotheism Uluhiyyah, so that they can worship the only true God alone.

All the apostles said to his people that worship to God alone. [2]

Glory glory of science depends on what is studied. And the science of tawhid is noble-noble science. Science is the great and glorious is the science of monotheism and Ushuluddin. Because, the monotheism that God created the jinn and humans, lowering the books, sent the apostles, and create heaven and hell. Anyone who studies the science and practice it, then he blessed the righteous again. Instead, whoever ignored it and did not want to learn it, then he is the miserable and wretched.

God sent His servants to study syar'i, the first thing to learn is the science of tawhid, God knows, examines how mentauhidkan Allah, worship Him properly. Allah Ta'ala says:

فاعلم أنه لا إله إلا الله واستغفر لذنبك وللمؤمنين والمؤمنات والله يعلم متقلبكم ومثواكم

So, know that there is no god (which entitled diibadahi correctly) but Allah, and ask forgiveness of your sins and the (sins) Believers, men and women. And Allah knows the place of business and where you live. [Muhammad/47: 19].

The person who died in a tauhid to God, then he will go to heaven. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

من مات وهو يعلم أنه لا إله إلا الله دخل الجنة.

Whoever died and he knows that there is no deity that has the right diibadahi properly besides Allah, then he goes to heaven. [3]

Thus, the position of monotheism is the foundation for building a Muslim charity. Caution is always a wise course focused on revamping the foundation. Meanwhile, the fool, he will continue to elevate the building, without affirming foundation, so robohlah building.

Sincerity and unity, also is like a tree that grows in the heart, good deeds are the branches, peace is a fruit that is felt in the life of this world, and eternal pleasure in the Hereafter. As the fruits of heaven, will not be interrupted and forbidden. Similarly, the "fruit" sincerity and unity of the world, will not be interrupted and forbidden. Shirk, lies and riya 'like a tree that grows in the human heart, the fruit in the world is the fear, anxiety, confusion and perceived narrowness in the chest, and the darkness that hit the heart. While in the Hereafter will produce Zaqqum [4] and eternal torment. [5]

Tawheed DEFINITIONS & TYPES stuff [6]
Tauhid-in Arabic-is mashdar of وحد, يوحد, توحيدا, means making something that one.

Tauhid-in science syar'i (terminology) - is the Oneness of Allah k to something special for Him, both in Uluhiyyah, Rububiyyah, and Asma 'and Attributes. Tawhid means worship to God alone.

Tawhid consists of three kinds: Rububiyyah Tawheed, Tawheed and Tawheed al-Asma Uluhiyyah 'wash-Shifat.

Rububiyyah Monotheism, ie everything what is done mentauhidkan Allah Ta'ala, either creating, giving fortune, turn on and off. God is the King, the Lord and the Lord of the organizing everything. Allah Ta'ala says:

ألا له الخلق والأمر تبارك الله رب العالمين

... Remember, creating and ordering just the right God. Glory be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. [Al A'raf / 7: 54]

Uluhiyyah Tawhid, the Oneness of Allah Ta'ala is through all the work of servants, which by the way that they can get closer to Allah if it is Him disyari'atkan, such as praying, khauf (fear), the king '(hope), mahabbah ( love), dzabh (slaughter), bernadzar, isti'aanah (for help), istighatsah (for help in difficult times), isti'adzah (for protection) and all that God commanded disyari'atkan and not menyekutukanNya with a what one. All these and other worship should be done only for the sake of Allah and sincere about it.

Allah Ta'ala says:

وإلهكم إله واحد لا إله إلا هو الرحمن الرحيم

And your Lord is Allah, the One, no one has the right god but Him diibadahi correctly. The Most Gracious, Most Merciful. [Al-Baqarah / 2: 163].

Tawheed Asma 'wash-Shifat God, that define what is Allah Ta'ala and His Messenger n was set upon Himself, either the names or attributes of God, and mensucikanNya of all shame and shortcomings, as it has been cleansed by Allah and His Messenger n. And we must define attributes of God, both contained in the al-Qur `an and the Sunnah as, and should not be ditakwil.

Word of Allah Ta'ala:

ليس كمثله شيء وهو السميع البصير

There is nothing similar to Him. And He is the Oft-Men-hearing, All-Seeing. [Ash Shura / 42: 11].

ISLAM IS A RELIGION Tawheed
The definition of Islam is:

الإستسلام لله بالتوحيد والإنقياد له بالطاعة والبراءة من الشرك وأهله.

(Submit to God by mentauhidkanNya, submissive obedience to Him by performing (over all commands and prohibitions), and free ourselves from shirk and those who do shirk). [7]

If we return to al-Qur `an, Allah has informed us that 'all the apostles were Aqeedah of Tawheed, and they started with tauhidullah propaganda, and the unity is the most important and the biggest case they carry.

Thus, the relationship 'Aqeedah Tawheed of all Shariah prophets (including Muhammad) عليهم الصلاة والسلام is like the foundation of a building (and like the soul to the body). Because the body is not going to stand and live, except for the presence of spirits.

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam began his preaching with a monotheism, as all Messengers. Among the examples are, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam told Mu'adh bin Jabal radi anhu when sent to Yemen. [8]

He sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

إنك ستأتي قوما أهل كتاب, فإذا جئتهم فادعهم إلى أن يشهدوا أن لا إله إلا الله, وأن محمدا رسول الله (وفي طريق: فليكن أول ما تدعوهم إليه عبادة الله), (وفي أخرى: أن يوحدوا الله) فإن هم أطاعوا لك بذلك (وفي رواية: فإذا عرفوا الله), فأخبرهم أن الله قد فرض عليهم خمس صلوات في كل يوم وليلة, فإن هم أطاعوا لك بذلك فأخبرهم أن الله قد فرض عليهم صدقة تؤخذ من أغنيائهم فترد على فقرائهم, فإن هم أطاعوا لك بذلك فإياك وكرائم أموالهم واتق دعوة المظلوم فإنه ليس بينه وبين الله حجاب.

Actually you will come to a people of the Book, then invite them to testify that none has the right god except Allah diibadahi correctly, and that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. (On the other lafazh: So the first time you preach to them is to worship Allah alone) (also lafazh others: So they take God as the only one entitled to diibadahi). If they mentaatimu as such it (In a story: When they have mentauhidkan Allah), then notify them that Allah has obliged them to pray five times a day. If they mentaatimu as such, then notify them that Allah has made obligatory upon them Sadaqah, taken from the rich among them and distributed to the poor people among them. If they mentaatimu as such, then ye turn away their wealth is good and you fear for the dizhalimi prayer, because there is no veil between the dizhalimi prayer with God. [9]

Tawheed AND JUSTICE
First. God tells us that the purpose of the creation and the command is, that creature knows the names and His attributes, so their worship to God alone, not dipersekutukan with his creatures, and to be fair the human family. Justice is the basis of the establishment of the heavens and the earth, as Allah says:

لقد أرسلنا رسلنا بالبينات وأنزلنا معهم الكتاب والميزان ليقوم الناس بالقسط

Indeed We have sent Our Messengers with the real evidence and We sent down with them the Book and the balance al (justice) so that people can carry out justice ... [Al Hadid/57: 25].

In this verse Allah informs us that the purpose of the coming of the Apostles and handed down his books is that human justice. The greatest justice is Tawheed (mentauhidkan Allah), and the unity of the subject, origin, and milestones justice. While Shirk is kezhaliman. Allah says:

إن الشرك لظلم عظيم

Indeed shirk is the greatest kezhaliman. [Luqman/31: 13].

Therefore, shirk (associating partners with Allah) is the most kezhaliman injustice, and monotheism is the most fair justice. [10]

Second. 'Aqeedah Tawheed heart and soul freed from servitude to the creatures of worship only to Allaah alone, and do not follow but only to the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam.
'Aqeedah of Tawheed, demands a Muslim to abandon all forms of servitude to other than Allah, because everything other than God is a being, who does not have any power to create, grant requests and various other Ilahiyyah properties.

Conversely, people who commit idolatry, then he has done the opposite of injustice-just-another dissenter. How could he worship-something that has no power but of God who created him and he is grateful to things, but God who gives good luck. Allah says:

وما خلقت الجن والإنس إلا ليعبدون ما أريد منهم من رزق وما أريد أن يطعمون إن الله هو الرزاق ذو القوة المتين

And I have not created jinn and man to worship Me. I do not want any of them good luck and I wills so that they feed Me. Surely Allah, He is the Giver rizki Which has more power is very strong. [Adz Dzariyat/51: 56-58]

Third. The order to be fair.

اعدلوا هو أقرب للتقوى

Applicable unfair ... because (it's fair) is closer to piety .... [Al-Maa idah / 5: 8].

Islam, as a religion of monotheism, ordered followers to morals, good morals and bad morals forbid. Islam also ordered all fair and good deeds, and forbidding bad deeds. Allah Ta'ala says:

إن الله يأمر بالعدل والإحسان وإيتاء ذي القربى وينهى عن الفحشاء والمنكر والبغي يعظكم لعلكم تذكرون

Verily Allah tells (you) to be fair and do good, giving to kinsfolk, and God forbid of indecency, munkar and hostility. He teaches you that ye may take heed. [An Nahl/16: 90].

Even God calls His Book (al-Qur `an) as the sentence was fair. Allah Ta'ala says:

وتمت كلمت ربك صدقا وعدلا

And had your Lord is perfect sentence (al Qur `an), (as a sentence) is correct and fair ... -Al An'am / 6 section 115 - that is, right in the news, as well as the rule and prohibit unfair. [11]

Fourth. Tawhid and be fair to fellow Muslims and pagans.

Tawheed SEPARATE BETWEEN MUSLIMS WITH KAFIR
Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, that people who say and believe in the phrase of unity (لا إله إلا الله), then he is a Muslim who has the right to protection of the ruler of the Muslims and get the promise of heaven. A Muslim is entitled wala '(loyalty) than other Muslims because of Tawheed and obedience to Allah and His Messenger sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam.

Conversely, people who deny the unity of the sentence-to shirk shirk doing that kept him out of Islam-then that person must be fought and entitled bara '(hatred) of all Muslims. Allah Ta'ala says:

قاتلوا الذين لا يؤمنون بالله ولا باليوم الآخر ولا يحرمون ما حرم الله ورسوله ولا يدينون دين الحق من الذين أوتوا الكتاب حتى يعطوا الجزية عن يد وهم صاغرون

Fight those who believe not in Allah and the day then, and those who do not forbid what has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger and those who had no religion to true religion (the religion of Allah), (ie the people) who have given al Book until they pay the Jizya (tax) being dutifully them in a state of subjection. [At Tawbah / 9:29].

Word He sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

أمرت أن أقاتل الناس حتى يشهدوا أن لا إله إلا الله, وأن محمدا رسول الله, ويقيموا الصلاة, ويؤتوا الزكاة, فإذا فعلوا ذلك, عصموا مني دماءهم وأموالهم إلا بحق الإسلام, وحسابهم على الله تعالى.

I am commanded to fight against people, till they testify that there is no god (deity) that diibadahi correctly but Allah, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, establish prayer, and pay zakat. If they had done that, then their blood and property unless I protect the rights of Islam, and their reckoning is on Allah Ta'ala. [12]

The command to fight the infidels and polytheists are due to their disbelief and polytheism to Allah the One who created them-as well as 'their beliefs that deviate from the' Aqeedah of tawheed, not because of personal grudges, fighting the state or territory. Thus the command of God to His Messenger, nor this Ummah to fight the mushrikeen, so that people flocked to convert to God and mentauhidkanNya.

Commands fight, fight and kill the infidels, ie pagan harbi (who fight the Muslims). As for the disbelievers who do not fight the Muslims, we are commanded to do justice to them and may not download zhaliminya. If they are kafir dhimmi (the protection of the Islamic government), or mu'ahad (entered into an agreement with the Islamic government), or musta'man (get security protection of the Islamic government), then they should not be killed. Allah Ta'ala says:

لا ينهاكم الله عن الذين لم يقاتلوكم في الدين ولم يخرجوكم من دياركم أن تبروهم وتقسطوا إليهم إن الله يحب المقسطين

Allah is not forbid you to be kind and to be fair to those who fight you not for religion and not (also) drive you from your homes. Truly Allah loves those who act justly. [Al Mumtahanah/60: 8].

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam who threatened to kill the unbelievers mu'ahad or dhimmi with harsh punishment. He sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

من قتل معاهدا لم يرح رائحة الجنة, وإن ريحها ليوجد من مسيرة أربعين عاما.

Anyone who kills a Gentile mu'ahad, then it will not smell heaven. When in fact it can smell the scent of paradise (distance) trip forty years. [13]

Also word he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

من قتل قتيلا من أهل الذمة لم يرح رائحة الجنة, وإن ريحها ليوجد من مسيرة أربعين عاما.

Whoever kills an expert of dhimma, so he will not smell the fragrance of heaven. When in fact it can smell the scent of paradise (distance) trip forty years. [14]

This suggests that unbelievers should not shed blood, let alone against a Muslim. [15]

Tawheed, ROAD TO JUSTICE AND PROSPERITY

By
Ustadz Al-Yazid bin Abdul Qadir Jawas



The virtue of Tawheed FOR MUSLIM PERSONAL [1]
First. God will wipe away the sins of the tauhid.
Arguments, the word of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam in a hadith Qudsi, from Anas ibn Malik radi anhu, he said: I heard the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam said, Allah the Glorified and Most High said:

... يا ابن آدم إنك لو أتيتني بقراب الأرض خطايا ثم لقيتني لا تشرك بي شيئا لأتيتك بقرابها مغفرة.

"... O Children of Adam, if you come to Me with sins of whole world, whereas when you die do not associate any I, too, surely I will give you full pardon earth anyway". [2]

Second. Allah Ta'ala will remove the difficulties and sorrows of the world and the Hereafter for those who tauhid.

Allah Ta'ala says:

ومن يتق الله يجعل له مخرجا ويرزقه من حيث لا يحتسب

... Those who fear Allah, He will hold for him a way out. And gave him a fortune from the unexpected ... "[ath-Thalaq/65: 2.3].

Someone said to not fear Allah, if he does not tauhid. People who tauhid and cautious, he will be given a way out of the problems of his life. [3]

Third. God will make and decorate a heart tauhid to faith, love, and makes the hatred in his heart to disbelief, wickedness and iniquity.
Allah Ta'ala says:

ولكن الله حبب إليكم الإيمان وزينه في قلوبكم وكره إليكم الكفر والفسوق والعصيان أولئك هم الراشدون

But God ... made you love faith and make the (faith's) beautiful in your heart, and make you hate to disbelief, wickedness and iniquity. They are the ones who follow the straight path. [Al Hujurat/49: 7].

Fourth. Tawheed is the only reason to get the pleasure of Allah. And the happiest people with the intercession of Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam is the person who says لا إله إلا الله with full sincerity of his heart.
Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

أسعد الناس بشفاعتي يوم القيامة من قال: لا إله إلا الله خالصا من قلبه أو نفسه.

People who are most happy with mandapat syafa'atku on the Day of Resurrection, those who say "La ilaha illallaah" outright from his heart or soul. [4]

Fifth. Allah Ta'ala will guarantee a tauhid enter into Heaven.

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

من مات وهو يعلم أنه لا إله إلا الله دخل الجنة.

Whosoever dies and he knows that there is no deity that has the right diibadahi correctly but Allah, so he goes to heaven. [5]

من مات لايشرك بالله شيئا دخل الجنة.

Those who die in a state of not associate God with something, he goes to heaven. [6]

Sixth. Allah Ta'ala will give you victory, relief, triumph and glory to those who tauhid.

Allah Ta'ala says:

يا أيها الذين آمنوا إن تنصروا الله ينصركم ويثبت أقدامكم

O you who believe, if you help (religious) Allah, He will help you and strengthen your position. [Muhammad/47: 7].

Seventh. Allah Ta'ala will give a good life in this world and the Hereafter for a tauhid.

Allah Ta'ala says:

من عمل صالحا من ذكر أو أنثى وهو مؤمن فلنحيينه حياة طيبة ولنجزينهم أجرهم بأحسن ما كانوا يعملون

Whoever works righteous, both men and women in a state of faith, then we will definitely give him a good life and We will recompense them give a better reward than what they have done. [An Nahl/16: 97].

Eighth. Tauhid would prevent a Muslim forever in hell.
Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

يدخل أهل الجنة الجنة, وأهل النار النار, ثم يقول الله تعالى: أخرجوا من كان في قلبه مثقال حبة من خردل من إيمان, فيخرجون منها قد اسودوا فيلقون في نهر الحياء - أو الحياة, شك مالك - فينبتون كما تنبت الحبة في جانب السيل, ألم تر أنها تخرج صفراء ملتوية?

"After the heavenly entrance to heaven, and the inhabitants of hell go to hell, then after that Allaah will say: 'Take out (of Hell) people who in their hearts are heavy as a mustard seed of faith,' then they were released from hell, only only they had jet black body (like charcoal). then they put the river of life, the body they grow (change) as the growth of the seed that is on the banks of the river. Did you notice that the seed grows yellow and many times? " [7]

Ninth. Monotheism is the determinant for the grant or to refuse charitable man.
Perfect or not depends on one's charity tauhidnya. People who do good, but not perfect tauhidnya, such as riya, not sincere, do shirk, surely will backfire for her charity work, that does not bring happiness. Therefore, all charities must be done sincerely for Allah, whether it be prayer, zakat, sadaqah, fasting, pilgrimage and more.

Allah Ta'ala says:

الذي خلق الموت والحياة ليبلوكم أيكم أحسن عملا وهو العزيز الغفور

Who created death and life that He might try you, which of your better deeds. And He is the Mighty, the Forgiving. [Al Mulk/67: 2].

In this noble verse, Allah mentions the "good deeds", not with "a lot of charity". Amal, called good or righteous, if it fulfills two conditions, namely sincere and ittiba 'to Prophet Muhammad n. As mentioned in the hadith, that sentence لا إله إلا الله, on the Day of Judgment, heavier weights than the heavens and the earth with the sincere reasons.

Tenth. People who tauhid will gain a sense of security and guidance.
People who do not mentauhidkan God perfectly, then he is always cautious, he was always in a state of fear and unsettled. They are afraid of a bad day, or the fear of having more than two children, fear of the future, fear of lost treasure and so on.

الذين آمنوا ولم يلبسوا إيمانهم بظلم أولئك لهم الأمن وهم مهتدون

Those who believe and confuse not their faith with kezhaliman (shirk), they are the ones who got security, and they are the ones that receive guidance. [Al An'am / 6:82].

The virtue of Tawheed FOR THE MUSLIM [8]
Islam as a religion of monotheism, is suitable and appropriate in every time, place, and conditions of the Ummah. That is, hold fast to Islam, will not eliminate the benefit of mankind. Even with these monotheistic religions, the ummah would be good, prosperous, safe, peaceful and ordered. If mankind wants salvation in this world and the hereafter, then they should convert to Islam and is subject to implement Islamic law. But you must remember, compatibility and incompatibility of Islam does not mean that Islam is subject to keep track of the time, place and circumstances of man, as desired by some people.

Religion Islam is the true religion, Allah Ta'ala promises victory to those who cling to religion well, but with a condition, they must mentauhidkan God, keep all (forms of) shirk, studying and practicing syar'i charitable deeds. Allah Ta'ala promised to make them power in the land, strengthen their faith, and make their life in this world is safe Sentausa. Allah Ta'ala says:

وعد الله الذين آمنوا منكم وعملوا الصالحات ليستخلفنهم في الأرض كما استخلف الذين من قبلهم وليمكنن لهم دينهم الذي ارتضى لهم وليبدلنهم من بعد خوفهم أمنا يعبدونني لا يشركون بي شيئا ومن كفر بعد ذلك فأولئك هم الفاسقون

And Allah has promised to those among you who believe and work righteous deeds, that He will make them powerful indeed in the earth as He made those before them in power, and indeed He will establish for them religion who has blessed him for them, and he is really going to change (the state of) them, after they are in fear of being safe Sentausa. They still worship unto me I do not associate with anything. But he who (still) disbelieved after (promise), then they are the ones who rebel. (An Nur/24: 55). See also Sura al A'raf verse 96.

TASHFIYAH and tarbiyah, KEY RETURN OF THE GLORY OF ISLAM [9]
The path to greatness, prosperity, and welfare of the ummah is to hold tashfiyah (purification) of something that is not known and has infiltrated into Islamic law, such as shirk, denial of the attributes of God Almighty or penakwilannya, hadith rejection -hadeeth related to 'Aqeedah and others. Also tashfiyah (purification) of worship of various innovations that have contaminated the purity and perfection of Islam. And also tashfiyah in the interpretation, jurisprudence, and various munkar that pollute the sanctity of Islam.

Then do tarbiyah (coaching) in the generation of Muslims that Islam has been cleared of munkar. That is a true Islamic guidance, from an early age, and without being influenced by western education who disbelieve, then bring them together in unity 'Aqeedah of Tawheed, the' Aqeedah of Ahlus Sunnah.

'Aqidah Ahlus Sunnah are the best way to unite the Muslims strength and unity of their ranks, to fix what is broken from religion and world affairs. This is because the 'Aqeedah of Ahlus Sunnah is able to restore the Muslims to al-Qur `an and the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam, and reverse the course of the believers, that is the way of the Companions Radhyallahu anhum. This feature may not be realized in a class, or of any proselytizing agency, or any organization that does not embrace 'Aqeedah of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah. History has been a witness to this fact. Only countries that cling to the 'Aqeedah of Ahlus Sunnah alone can unite the scattered forces of the Muslims. Only the 'Aqeedah Salaf alone, then the jihad and enjoining and forbidding evil is upright, and achieved the glory of Islam. [10]

With the 'Aqeedah Salaf is, Muslims and preachers-da'inya be united, so as to achieve glory and become the best of both nations. This, because the 'Aqeedah Salaf al is based on Qur'an and Sunnah as according to the understanding of the Companions. The 'Aqeedah than' Aqeedah Salaf, he will not deliver the achievement of unity, even that will happen is discord and destruction. So, no doubt, the road to victory and glory of the Muslims, is to return to the 'aqeedah and manhaj of truth, the' Aqeedah of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah; 'aqeedah and manhaj Salaf.

Imam Malik rahimahullah said:

لن يصلح آخر هذه الأمة إلا ما أصلح أولها.

Will not be able to fix this nation, but what has made both the first generation of this ummah (ie, friends). [11]

Khitmah: we ask istiqamah ON ISLAM AND UNDERSTANDING BY Sunnah Salafush anhum radi-Salih
We ask God Almighty, that we were shown to the path of Islam and Sunnah to follow manhaj as-Salih Salafush and committed and in a state mentauhidkan Allaah, the Sunnah of the Prophet n carry and keep all forms of shirk and bid'ah. Hopefully Allah Ta'ala make us survivors belonged follow the companions radi anhum. And hopefully Allaah gather us in Heaven with the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam and his companions radi anhum.

Prayers and peace of God may always bestowed on the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, his family, his Companions radi anhum, and those who follow him sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam in his favor until the end of time. And the end of this mission was all praise be to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.

We close with prayer kaffaratul assemblies:

سبحانك اللهم وبحمدك أشهد أن لا إله إلا أنت, أستغفرك وأتوب إليك.

Glory to Thee, O God, I praise you. I bear witness that there is no deity that has the right diibadahi correctly except You, I ask for forgiveness and repent to You.

Praise Rabbil 'aalamiin.

MORAL OF THE STORY Ashabul MESSAGE-Kahf

By
Ustadz Muhammad 'Asim bin Musthofa


أم حسبت أن أصحاب الكهف والرقيم كانوا من آياتنا عجبا

Or do you think that the people who inhabit caves and (having) raqim, they include signs we are surprising? [Al-Kahfi/18: 9].

INTRODUCTION
So many stories of people was spoken earlier in his glorious book, Al-Qur `annealing-Karim. Which clearly shows how much faidahnya to guide mankind to guidance. Not surprisingly, due to exposure to media stories, including important lessons. Moreover, a person usually has a tendency easier to grasp the moral message of the story is authentic.

Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-'Uthaymeen convey there are four factors that have led to the story of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'alamenjadi best means of learning the most perfect again. [1] These are: (1) because the story comes from the knowledge of God, (2) contains honesty, (3) expressed in high literary style, obviously bright. There are no words more clearly than Kalamullah, except for those whose hearts are astray, so when I heard the stories told by God in his book, he said: "This is a fairy tale of the past". (4) appears because it is the will of God. With these stories, God does not want misguidance is in us, or cheating the laws that have been set. But with this story, God wants us to get the guidance and stand tall for justice.

STORY OF ASH-HABUL-Kahf, MARK IS GOD subhanahu wa ta'ala GREATNESS
In Surat al-Kahf, Allah delivered one past life stories. That is known as ashhabul-kahf, that the youth of the cave, which is reported globally.

In a statement mentioned, that they embraced the religion of the Prophet 'Isa son of Maryam. However, Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir rahimahullah merajihkan, that the young men lived before the development milla Nashraniyah. If Christians can embrace them, have tentuk Jewish priests did not have data on them. While event-kahf ashhabul, a Jewish themes suggested by the Quraish to "test" the truth of Muhammad's prophethood of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, in addition to the question of Dhul-Qarna-in and spirits. This shows if the event is already in the books terbukukan scribes, and Christians can occur before the emergence of religion. Allaah knows best. [2]

Istifham Form (word mark) in paragraph above, meaningful disclaimers and restrictions. That is, do you think the story ashhabul-kahf (cave dwellers) and the events that happen to them is a strange case to be a sign of God's power and an awesome case the provisions of His wisdom. To suggest there is no story and the events that worth to him.

The signs of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala stunning longer strange, equal with signs of greatness in the ash-habul-kahf, even bigger than the event very much. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala continues to show His servants the signs of his greatness in the sky, even to themselves, so that the truth becomes clear from falsehood, it becomes clear as between instructions than heresy. This disclaimer is not intended, if the story-ash-habul kahf include an amazing case. Indeed, this story is one sign of God's awesome power.

However, once again this is negation of intent, that such an event very much. If the admiration is just glued to this story only, then it necessarily reflect the shallowness of science and reason. Because a believer, should contemplate all the signs of his power, with which Allaah invites His servants to be thinking about it. Because, think about the signs of Allah Subhanahu wa key Ta'alamerupakan faith, the path to knowledge and beliefs. [3]

Ibn Kathir rahimahullah also said that no different meaning, namely: "The events that happened to them was not something amazing in their ability and authority Us. Verily the creation of heaven, earth, night and day change, control of the sun, moon, stars and etc., (all of it) including signs of (Allah) the great, the signaling power of Allah Ta'ala., and behold, He has power over all that He wills. No one is more awesome events from the events of the cave dwellers can weaken (authority) of His. "This phrase, is as stated by Ibn Juraij and Mujahid. [4]

Meaning of Al-Kahf, a cave in the mountain, and are preventing the youth. While the Ar-Raqim, meaning debated by scholars. The idea is the choice of Al-Imam Tabari, who also attended by Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir rahimahullah, Ar-Raqim is a book that contains text. Sheikh As-Sa'di rahimahullah add a caption, a book in which is written the names and their stories, from beginning to end. [5]

إذ أوى الفتية إلى الكهف فقالوا ربنا آتنا من لدنك رحمة وهيئ لنا من أمرنا رشدا

(Remember) when the young men took refuge in the cave, and then they prayed: "O our Lord, give us mercy from Thy hand, and a way for us to right guidance in our affairs (this)". [Al-Kahfi/18: 10].

Al-Fityah al fata plural of the word, that the youth who are in peak power and ambition.

Allah Ta'ala preach, they are the young men who ran to save the faith of those who have been ensnared by shirk and denial of the Resurrection, so it does not overwrite their slander. So they fled to a cave in the mountains, with the intent to conceal themselves from their families. [6]

Upon entering the cave, they prayed to God asking mercy and His compassion.

ربنا آتنا من لدنك رحمة, means, give us mercy from Thy hand, that you love and keep us from (fitnah that befell) our people.

وهيئ لنا من أمرنا رشدا, that is, ordain for us guidance. Namely, we make the sequel comes down to a straight guidance. [7]

Told by Ash-Shaykh rahimahullah Syinqithi, that the request is a prayer of a great and covers all goodness.

Of the prayers of the young men, there is one side that is emphasized by Sheikh As-Sa'di rahimahullah, ie, they have combined the running of defamation by heading to a place that could be hiding the submission and request to God to be eased of its affairs, and not rely affairs to themselves and to other fellow beings. [8]

فضربنا على آذانهم في الكهف سنين عددا ثم بعثناهم لنعلم أي الحزبين أحصى لما لبثوا أمدا

So We sealed their ears in the cave for a few years. Then we wake them, so we know which of the two parties is more appropriate to calculate how long they live (in the cave) [al-Kahfi/18: 11-12].

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala wills them to fall asleep when entering the cave. They even sleep in them for years. Then Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala wake them from kelelapan. Furthermore, one of them took a few dirham to buy food for them, which will be explained in greater detail.

The founding of the youth of sleep, termed al ba'tsu (resurrection), because such a death. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to wake them up to find out who is more correct calculation of their stay (in the cave). For the young men had a disagreement about the duration of their stay in the cave. [9]

نحن نقص عليك نبأهم بالحق إنهم فتية آمنوا بربهم وزدناهم هدى

We profiled thee (Muhammad) this story correctly. Indeed, they were youths who believed in their Lord, and We have also added to their instructions. [Al-Kahfi/18: 13]

This is their story. Verily Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala has told the Prophet Muhammad n the true to reality that happens, there is no doubt, nor is there the slightest ambiguity. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala told, they are a bunch of young men who accept the truth and straighter path than the older generation of those who oppose it and wallow with religious falsehood.

The boys are just believes in Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala alone, unlike their contemporaries. So, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala celebrate their faith, and then add to them guidance. That is, due to the guidance of faith, God added to their instructions, in the form of useful knowledge and good deeds. As Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala

ويزيد الله الذين اهتدوا هدى

and God will add to hint to those who have obtained a clue. [Maryam/19: 76]. [10]

An interesting conclusion suggested by Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir rahimahullah, ie starting from the assertion that they are a bunch of young men, then he rahimahullah said: "Therefore, most people who welcomed propaganda Allaah and His Messenger from among the youth. While the parents of the Quraysh, most are still holding their religion, but Islam is not just a little. Thus God is preached, that they are the youth ". [11]

This verse includes the arguments made by many scholars, such as Al-Bukhari rahimahullah, to show the nature, ie, accretion and varying levels of faith, and faith is up and down. [12]

وربطنا على قلوبهم إذ قاموا فقالوا ربنا رب السماوات والأرض لن ندعو من دونه إلها لقد قلنا إذا شططا

We gave strength to their hearts when they stood up, and then they say: "Our Lord is the Lord of heaven and earth, we never called deity except Him, so that we actually have uttered a word so far from the truth". [Al-Kahfi/18: 14].

About the purpose of this paragraph, Al-Imam Tabari rahimahullah stated: "And We (Allah) inspires patience to them and strengthen their hearts with the light of faith, until their souls berlepasa themselves than ever before, the good life habits. [13]

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala mengkaruniakan on their determination and strength to be patient, so that they dare to notice in the presence of unbelievers: "" Our Lord is the Lord of heaven and earth, we never called deity except Him, so that we actually had uttered a word so far from the truth ". [14]

Steadiness and courage for them is needed. Because the entire population against them, while their ages at the time were young, which may be influenced by parents. But God gave strength to their hearts. Similarly, according to a review Shaykh al-'Uthaymeen rahimahullah [15].

Understanding (إذا) in paragraph above, that if we appeal to the god besides Allah, our words have diverged, and we terjermus into infidelity. They were right. If they pray to other than Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, meaning they have to say with words that are wrong and misleading to kufr. [16]

In the statement, the youth has been integrating the pledge against monotheism rububiyyah to monotheism Uluhiyyah and consistent with it, along with an explanation that Allah is the One who Haq, and besides Him is falsehood. It shows they really know Rabb and the additional guidance on them. [17]

هؤلاء قومنا اتخذوا من دونه آلهة لولا يأتون عليهم بسلطان بين فمن أظلم ممن افترى على الله كذبا

Our tribe has been made other than Him as gods (for worship). Why they did not put forward a clear reason (about their faith). Who is more injustice than those who invent a lie against Allah. [Al-Kahfi/18: 15].

The boys wanted to show arguments, why they alienate themselves from their people. They said: "People make god but Allah, worship besides Allah. (Why) they do not prove that god is true, and shows the factors that cause them to worship?"

So, there are two demands on their people. Namely: (1) asking for proof that their god is ilah (the Truth), (2) asking for proving, that the worship they do is right. And these two things, it is impossible to prove these people.

Furthermore, the word من (man) in the form of questions in the above verse means naive (rescission). That is, no one is more persecuted than those who forged the name of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. In addition, it contains other elements, in the form of a challenge. So, as if you said, tell me, or swatch to me people are more persecuted than those who lie in the name of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala.

Who were the most persecuted of those who lie in the name of God with attribute a partner to Allah, and so forth? So everyone who lie in the name of God, then no one is beyond kezhalimannya. If you lie on behalf of a person, it is kezhaliman. When you are doing to people of higher social status, then certainly more severe than the first level kezhalimannya. How did you fake if it lies in the name of God? Undoubtedly kezhalimannya higher level. [18]

In such a case, if it appears that threaten religious slander a person, then prescribed for a person to remove himself from the public for the sake of religion. [19] That is done by the young man, as mentioned in the following verse.

وإذ اعتزلتموهم وما يعبدون إلا الله فأووا إلى الكهف ينشر لكم ربكم من رحمته ويهيئ لكم من أمركم مرفقا

And when you leave them and what they worshiped besides Allah, then seek refuge in the cave, surely your Lord will bestow His mercy unto you most and provide something useful to you in your affairs. [16].

Some young men said to the other: "If you managed to alienate himself from the guys with the bodies and religion, then left (stance) but to save themselves from their evil, and take steps to make it happen. Because these youth do not have strength to fight his people, and they did not have lived together in the middle of his people with different beliefs ". [20] So that is the way they took refuge in the cave [21] in the hope of reaping God's grace and ease.

It is not denied, that Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'alatelah devotes most of his grace and ease their concerns with the right guidance in their affairs. Therefore, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala keep religion and their physical, as well as making including signs of his power in the face of the creature. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala spreading a good image for those belonging to the outpouring of His mercy to them and facilitate all the supporting factors for them. Even a place to sleep, were in high maintenance. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says:

وترى الشمس إذا طلعت تزاور عن كهفهم ذات اليمين وإذا غربت تقرضهم ذات الشمال وهم في فجوة منه ذلك من آيات الله من يهد الله فهو المهتد ومن يضلل فلن تجد له وليا مرشدا

And you'll see the sun when it rises, leaning out of their cave to the right, and when they are away from the sunset to the left while they were in place in the vast cave. It was some of the signs (greatness) of God. Those who were given instructions by God, then he is rightly guided, and whoever is led astray Him, then you will not have a leader who can give any clues to her. [Al-Kahfi/18: 17]

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala keep them from the sun, providing a cave. And when the sun rises, menyerong position to the right cave. As for when it goes down, the sun rays hit the left side of the cave. Thus, the heat of the sun does not hit them directly, which could cause damage to their bodies. [23] This suggests that the cave door facing north. When the cave door facing east, there is no incoming light at sunset. If facing south, then there is no beam in the morning and afternoon. If facing the west, of course, the light does not enter the cave when the sun rises. [24]

They are in a wide range of the cave. Circumstances, so that the air and the air flow about them, and the content of that bad air can get out. [25]

These events include signs of Allah. The young man received God's guidance to reach the cave, and God made them alive, sunshine and wind on them, so that they remain physically intact. [26]

Through this verse, Shaykh al-'Uthaymeen rahimahullah take isthimbath, there is evidence that the sun that moves. Caused by the movement, the sun rises and sets. Contrary to what people believe now that the move is earth, while the sun is silent. We have a part (verse) Kalamullah should we set as it is, and not leave this explicit meaning unless the proposition is clear. When the night and the day as evidenced by the fact that accurate because the circulation of the earth, then in time, we must mentakwilkan verses toward meaning in accordance with reality. [27]

At the end of this verse, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala said that He Who gives guidance to the young men in the middle of the guidance towards them. Anyone who was awarded the guidance, indeed he has won instructions. And those who were misled, then no one is able to straighten it. [28]

In a story that comes from Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala is implied a warning, that we should not ask for guidance but only to God. Similarly, we do not have hesitated when he saw the lost. Because someone astray is in the hands of God. We believe in destiny, not wrath error occurred because the notice of God. Our duty, directing those who have gone astray. [29]

وتحسبهم أيقاظا وهم رقود ونقلبهم ذات اليمين وذات الشمال وكلبهم باسط ذراعيه بالوصيد لو اطلعت عليهم لوليت منهم فرارا ولملئت منهم رعبا

And you think them awake while they were asleep, and we reverse and turning them to the right and to the left, while their dog mengunjurkan his arms in front of the cave entrance. And if you see them, you would be turned away from them by running (self) and certainly (heart) you will be filled with the fear of them. [Al-Kahfi/18: 18].

Shaykh 'Abdur-Rahman as-Sa'di rahimahullah quoting the scholars of Tafseer, he said: "That's because their eyes remain open so as not to be broken, so people who look, think them awake while sleeping. This is also the providence of God against their bodies. Due to the friction of the earth generally able to undermine the body that come into contact with it. Among the provisions of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, He's tossing their body to the right and to the left, [30] so it is not causing the earth to destroy their bodies, though Allah Almighty keep their bodies without flipping it back. Nevertheless, Allah is Most Wise. sunnah He wants to impose his universe and linking factors cause and effect.

A dog that accompanies ashhabul kahf, fell asleep as they were at the time just in case. The dog mengunjurkan his arms in front of the cave entrance.

The guard them from the man, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala reported that they were preserved in fear that God scatter. If anyone saw them, his heart will inevitably laden with fear and fled. These factors cause they can live long, and no one has managed to track them down, but the existence of the town is very close. Theorem which shows their close places, that when they awoke, and sent one of his friends in order to buy food in the city, while others are waiting for him. It shows how close the cave they live out of town. [31]

Allaah knows best.

MORAL OF THE STORY Ashabul MESSAGE-Kahf

By
Ustadz Muhammad 'Asim bin Musthofa



وكذلك بعثناهم ليتساءلوا بينهم قال قائل منهم كم لبثتم قالوا لبثنا يوما أو بعض يوم قالوا ربكم أعلم بما لبثتم فابعثوا أحدكم بورقكم هذه إلى المدينة فلينظر أيها أزكى طعاما فليأتكم برزق منه وليتلطف ولا يشعرن بكم أحدا

And thus did We rouse them that they asked each other among themselves. Said one of them: "How long have you been (here)." They said: "We are (here) a day or half a day." Said (something else): "Lord you better know how long you are (here). Then dispatch one of you to go to town with the money perakmu this, and let him see where the food was better, then let him bring the food to you, and let him lenient and do not ever tell halmu to one. [al-Kahfi/18: 19].

Allah Almighty to preach in this noble verse, that he woke ash-habul kahf from their long sleep, in a state of physical, healthy hair and skin like its original state, without the slightest change. Goal, so ask each of them about how long they slept. Some said, a full day or a few moments. Some others handed knowledge of time is to God Almighty. [1]

More specifically Imam Tabari rahimahullah said their goal is to have woken them know how great the power of God, His works wonders on his creatures, his defense against his guardian, and that they more clearly know their condition, keberdaan that they are actually innocent of worship to idols, and mengikhlaskan worship to God alone. [2]

Here, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala that they do not explain the question. However, in the next verse, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala describes their sleep during the past 300 years based on the circle of the sun, or 309 years based on the circulation of the month.

Furthermore, they change the subject to the object that is more important. Namely, the need for food and drink. So diutuslah one of them to go to the city they left behind with the silver coins at the time went first brought from home [3].

With regard to the meaning of azka tha'aman, there are two statements from scholars.

Imam Tabari rahimahullah, Imam Ibn Kathir rahimahullah and ash-Shaykh rahimahullah Syinqithi merajihkan that sense azka tha'aman is kosher, does not contain haram or doubtful. For this is the commandment of God to the apostles and the believers. Thus, the choice that matches the conditions of the youth ward is another choice in the matter of food, the food is halal and clean, good food is a little or a lot, so it is not meaningful to the large amounts of food, as held by some people. [4]

While Shaykh as-Sa'di rahimahullah, he is more inclined memaknaninya with the best food. That is, the best and most delicious food. Perhaps this is what a lot pendapatn relied upon by the majority of commentators who say that they are the children of the king. Therefore, he ordered that buying the best food the food habits of rich people. [5]

They also advised that it behaves friendly when on the way to town, when purchased and on the way home. Similarly, they were ordered to shut down the business, and did not tell the state of his friends, not to divulge it to anyone. [6]

إنهم إن يظهروا عليكم يرجموكم أو يعيدوكم في ملتهم ولن تفلحوا إذا أبدا

Surely if they can figure out where you are, they will throw stones at you, or force you back to their religion, and if so surely you will not be lucky forever. [Al-Kahfi/18: 20]

They mention why the message was delivered. The reason is, if their presence known and then caught, it is feared they will face one of two tough choices. Stoned with stones. Or people will test the firmness in religion and convert them to re-embrace the teachings of the local population, the religious infidelity. If they (the young men) agreed to urge the government of the time to re-embrace the previous belief, then no luck at all for them both in this world and the hereafter. [7]

Such threats, harassment and torment that is launched, or forced to apostatize, has become a habit of the kuffar against the Muslims. God has also been mentioned in other verses. As his words:

وقال الذين كفروا لرسلهم لنخرجنكم من أرضنا أو لتعودن في ملتنا فأوحى إليهم ربهم لنهلكن الظالمين

The unbelievers said to their messengers: "We are really going to expel you from our land or you return to our religion." Then the Lord revealed to them: "We will certainly destroy the people's injustice, [Ibrahim/14: 13] [8]

The two verses above indicate some important lessons, namely:
• Suggested that knowledgeable and discussed,
• Ethics for people who have not been clear to him that handed it to the science of learning, and he was silent in accordance with the level of ability,
• Validity represents the buying and selling business, and legitimate joint venture in the sale,
• Bolehnya eating fine foods and foods that are delicious, as long as it does not contain waste,
• Recommendation to be careful and hide, and stay away from places that threaten religious slander, and keep one's secrets and his brothers and sisters,
• The magnitude of their love for the religion of their flight from all that threatens religious slander, and left home for God,
• The mention of the existence of evil, namely the dangers and damages that drive to show hatred against him and leave. Such is the way of the believers concept of past and present.

وكذلك أعثرنا عليهم ليعلموا أن وعد الله حق وأن الساعة لا ريب فيها إذ يتنازعون بينهم أمرهم فقالوا ابنوا عليهم بنيانا ربهم أعلم بهم قال الذين غلبوا على أمرهم لنتخذن عليهم مسجدا

And so (too) We make (men) with them, so that people might know that the promise of Allah is true, and that the coming of the Day of Judgment there is no doubt. When people that their affair, the man said, "Build a building over (cave) them, their Lord knows best about them". The people who rule over their affairs said: "We will establish a house of worship on it". [Al-Kahfi/18: 21].

Sheikh Abdur-Rahman as-Sa'di rahimahullah explains this verse, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala preaching that wills ashhabul state-kahf shows to audiences at the time. Incident-wallahu a'lam-after they awake, and then send one of them to buy food. They ordered her to be in disguise and conceal (their case). Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala wills against a single instance that contains the benefit for the people and an additional reward for the young man. That is, when people see a sign of the greatness of God in them (ash-habul-kahf) with their own eyes. So that they realize that the promise of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala really there, no doubt, is also no longer an impossibility after the first affair of the young man. Some acknowledge the coming promise of Allaah and the Day of Judgment. Others destroy. Then Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala make story-ash-habul kahf as additional knowledge and confidence for the believers and the proof (the plaintiff) to those who oppose. Be the reward in this case to them. [9]

Furthermore, those in power have the will to build a tomb on top of them. Abul-Faraj Ibn al-Jawzi rahimahullah, interpretation among scholars said, is the people who control the affairs of the young men, is king and his subordinates from among the believers. [10] They intend to build a place of worship in the the graves of the young man. The building functioned to worship Allah Ta'ala in it and remember the young men and the events that happen to them. So, instead of among the kuffar, as revealed most people. Because building mosques including the nature of the believers. [11]

But keep in mind that they do not necessarily be extrapolated to legalize the construction of mosques in (around) graves, as is the case in most Muslim countries. Since the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam has forbidden and denounced the perpetrators. So, to build a mosque on top of the grave still reprehensible. Because as described Shaykh as-Sa'di rahimahullah, that context this verse talks about the ash-habul-kahf and kudos to them. That glorification of the ash-habul-kahf, and pengangunggan was so elevated until people say "establish a house of worship on it". [12]

Costs to build places of worship in the cemetery, including the grave of the prophet is forbidden in Islam. This does not have anything to do with the glorification of the tomb occupant, but rather due to conflict with the hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam.

Imam al-Qurtubi in his Tafseer rahimahullah said: "The scholars we said, 'Forbidden Muslims make up the grave of prophets and scholars as a mosque.'"

The priests hadith narrated from Abi al-Ghanawi Martsad, he said: I heard the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

لا تصلوا إلى القبور ولا تجلسوا عليها

Do you pray facing the grave and do not sit on it. [This lafazh Imam Muslim].

That is, do not you make graves as a mecca, so you pray on it or facing it, such as what was done by the Jews and Nassara. As a result, the act was to drag them to the worship of the inhabitants of the grave, so the past, it has been the cause of action worship of statues. So the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam warned of such acts and closed roads can be dragged to it ... [13]

Lessons from this verse, that the man who saved his religion from defamation, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala will save him. Someone who earnestly seek salvation, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala will save him. Someone who seek refuge in Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, Allah will protect him and make it as a source of guidance for others. Those who reap humiliation in the way of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala and to seek His good pleasure, He is the sequel to the affairs of the great kemuliaaan direction he did not think. And what is with Allah is better for people who are obedient.

سيقولون ثلاثة رابعهم كلبهم ويقولون خمسة سادسهم كلبهم رجما بالغيب ويقولون سبعة وثامنهم كلبهم قل ربي أعلم بعدتهم ما يعلمهم إلا قليل فلا تمار فيهم إلا مراء ظاهرا ولا تستفت فيهم منهم أحدا

(Some people) say (their number) are three, the fourth is a dog, and (the other) said: "(The number of them) is five, the sixth is a dog", as a guess for goods unseen; and (others) say: "(Their number) seven, the dog being the eighth." Say: "Rabbku knows best their number; nobody knows (number) except their bit". Therefore, do thou (Muhammad) fight about them, except the quarrel was born alone, and do not you ask about them (the youths) to one of them. [Al-Kahfi/18: 22].

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala tells people dispute regarding the amount of ash-habul-kahf. Who are those who disagree on this issue? The answer, based on the view of Shaykh as-Sa'di rahimahullah, they are People of the Book. [14] The dispute contrary to the case of their alleged supernatural and those statements invent events that they did not know.

Here, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala only three of opinion, no other opinion. [15] Some of them said, 'their number is three fourth is a dog'. Others say, 'their number is five sixth was her dog'. Two opinion, God judge them as mere allegations of their supernatural case, which means vanity. Then Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala third expression, 'their number seven dog being the eighth person, "and then silence. This shows, that the last word is-wallahu knows best-is the correct opinion. Because Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala abort two first opinion and did not make the next word. That means showing the truth and in accordance with the facts of history. [16]

Imam Ibn Jarir rahimahullah bring history Ibn Kathir rahimahullah assessed as a saheeh isnaad, that the boy was seven, the same as the previous explanation, consistent with paragraph. [17]

These disputes include disagreements that do not contain any benefit. Similarly, the knowledge of their number, do not generate benefits for humans, either religion or the world. [18] Similarly, the names of the boy and the dog that accompanies; still questionable validity, because most came from the Book. And again, nothing that might significantly faidah expected to arise from the knowledge about it. [19]

Therefore, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says: "Say: Rabbku better know their number, no one knows their number except a little". And Ibn 'Abbaas anhuma said: "I was a little out of it". They are the people who are in tune with the truth and knowing the truth of his opinions. God forbid he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam argumenentasi arguing and clashing with the Scripture about them, except the quarrel was born alone, based on science and faith, and also contain avail.

As for the argument that is based on ignorance and suspicion toward the supernatural, or who do not do good, then the problem is not important and not menghasilan benefits, both in terms of religion, as well as the know, such as: knowledge of the number of the inhabitants of the cave and other similar matters. And indeed it has been a lot of discussion and a protracted discussion about the polemic is that just a waste of time and undermined the heart to love others without benefits. [20]

Further warning from Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to the Prophet Muhammad n, so that he did not question them about the ash-habul-kahf. Since the foundation of the words of the Book of the inhabitants of the cave is only fiction and fancy, not by words Ma'shum, so not in the least affect the truth. Meanwhile, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala has brought the truth to you that there is no doubt and skepticism whatsoever. So, that's a priority to arbitrate on the books and statements that existed before. [21]

Excerpts lesson from this verse, that the ban fatwa asking someone who is not competent to berfatwa, either because of the shallowness of his knowledge in the case in question, or because he does not care what he says, does not have the properties of wara 'the curb. If prohibited from asking fatwas to people like this, then the ban on him to give fatwa, it is more emphasized. And that there is someone who should not be asked for a fatwa in a particular case, but did not rule out other problems he was asked by his master.

ولا تقولن لشيء إني فاعل ذلك غدا إلا أن يشاء الله واذكر ربك إذا نسيت وقل عسى أن يهدين ربي لأقرب من هذا رشدا

And do not ever say of anything, 'I'll do it tomorrow morning, but (to mention): "God willing." And remember your Lord when you forget to, and say: "Hopefully Rabbku will give clues to the closer to the truth than this ". [al-Kahfi/18 :23-24].

This verse is an indication of Allah to His Messenger. Namely, restrictions to him, which of course also applies to all the mukallaf, if you want to work out a deal that will come in order to say "I'm actually going to do," without linking to masyi `ah (the will of) Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. Some scholars even consider it a warning to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, in order not to be repeated in the future. Similarly, because the attitude imposes a ban. That is talking about the case supernatural, something that will come up, not knowing if he would do it or not? Was there or not? In addition, it reflects the attitude of believing in yourself excessively. This course is prohibited, because all will depend on the will of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, "and you may not want (the way of it) unless the will of God, the Lord of the Worlds"-at Takwir/81-29 /: -, it all matters to be returned to masyi'ah Allah, the One Who possesses the knowledge of nature unseen. [22]

For fall this verse, the Jews said to the Quraish: "Ask about the soul of Muhammad, a man who traveled the world (ie, Dhul Qarnain), and the young people who have amazing stories in the past (ie ash-habul-kahf) .

Then the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam replied: "I will preach to you tomorrow morning, on which you ask." And while these promises, he n not say "God willing," and apparently revelation faltered for a moment. This delay makes him sad. Then Allah revealed three issues that answer. Concerning the spirit in the letter of al Isra `. See Adhwaul-Bayan (4/84-85).

Thus, understanding the verse, is do not ever say to something, that you intend to do later "actually I'll do it later". unless accompanied by saying "unless God wills others" or the phrase "if God wills (insha Allah)". [23] This sentence can help simplify matters, the achievement of a blessing, as well as a request for a servant to have recourse to his Lord. [24 ]

Because a servant is a man, who must have forgotten to remember the nature of God's will, then He ordered that convey an exception, when the mind to manifest what they want and danger away from him.

Of generality command to remember God when forgotten, lessons learned the command to remember Him when subjected to forget, because it can keep them from forgetfulness, then remember what is forgotten. Forget itself comes from the devil, and vice versa, dhikrullah can banish demons. When the demon left, then forgot was gone. as well as for those who neglectful more forgotten (remembrance of Allah), he was told that his Lord's name in order not to be truly negligent. [25]

At the end of Surat al-Kahf verse, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala commanded the servant who wish to obtain the furthest from the truth and error, and hope that he prayed to Him, and trust in God, that He would show him the easiest way will lead to the truth. God commanded that the servant said "hopefully will give me a clue Rabbku closer to the truth than this."

This should be a slave state. He should always devote all abilities and exert his ability to seek guidance and truth, so that he gets taufik for that purpose, to the relief of his Lord came to him and straighten the whole business. [26]

ولبثوا في كهفهم ثلاث مائة سنين وازدادوا تسعا قل الله أعلم بما لبثوا له غيب السماوات والأرض أبصر به وأسمع ما لهم من دونه من ولي ولا يشرك في حكمه أحدا

And they stayed in their Cave three hundred years and added nine year (again). Say: "Allah knows best how long they stayed (in the cave); Him belongs all that is hidden in the heavens and on earth. How bright his vision and how his sharp hearing, and no one other than those pelindungpun- Him, and He does not take one to be his ally in setting decisions. " [Al-Kahfi/18 :25-26]

This is God-given knowledge about the ash-lived youth-kahf habul in the cave, and not a statement of the Scripture. [27] And it came after Allah forbids His Prophet asked the Book of ash-habul-kahf, because they have no knowledge. Because knowledge about it only belongs to God, including the hidden things in the heavens and on earth.

Allaah the One who has knowledge of the unseen and real, and He has knowledge of all things. What was preached by God through the oral-oral His Messenger, then it is believed to be the truth, and there is no doubt. While the news is not God tell His apostles, then no one creature can know. [28]

Then God tells how perfect his hearing and vision, and how perfect his coverage of the entire case is heard and the object is visible, after preaching his knowledge encompasses everything known.

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala then close this paragraph by saying that he who has the power of creation, the right to handle matters, and no one was able to block his decision. He did not have a helper, helper, ally or giver of direction. Most High, Most Holy God. [29]

Similarly, a brief explanation of the story-ash-habul kahf through the statements of the scholars of tafsir. Hopefully useful.

Allaah knows best.

CULTURE-CULTURAL wary of Ignorance

By
DR Ustadz Ali Musri Semjan Son


Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. Blessings and greetings to the Last Prophet who brought a warning to all humanity. May the prayers and peace also terlimpahkan to her family and friends, as well as those who still cling to their lead until the Day of Judgment.

At the time of ignorance, the Arabs have different cultures and customs they do in their daily lives. Culture exists in the form of belief, worship, morality and the laws of society. The purpose we recognize this issue, is that we do not fall into the ignorance cultures.

In the age of globalization is how quickly civilization exchanges, but some of us do not have a filter for filtering the culture and civilization. So some of us fall and fall into the abyss apostasy various other peoples. As has been pointed out by the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

لتتبعن سنن الذين من قبلكم شبرا بشبر وذراعا بذراع حتى لو دخلوا في جحر ضب لاتبعتموهم قلنا يا رسول الله آليهود والنصارى قال فمن (متفق عليه).

"It is precisely the habit you will follow peoples before you, inch by inch, fathom by fathom, so if they get a hole Dhab (a type of lizard), you will undoubtedly follow," then they asked him: "O Messenger of Allah, (do you mean) the The Jews and the Christians? " (Answer the Prophet): "Who else?" [Bukhari and Muslim]

If we look to the community, we would get most of them have been influenced by the culture and civilization of other peoples. Both deliberately imitate the model and style reasons, or because we are ignorant of the teachings of their own religion, do not realize that the habits and behavior of the people is a force of ignorance first.

About the culture and customs of the people's ignorance, then Allah has explained in many verses, and so did the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam in many hadith, that this people are not spared and habits resemble those that deviate from the truth. That is as it has been revealed Allaah to His prophets and apostles. Either in the form beliefs, worship, morality and the law society. As Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala:

وكذلك نفصل الآيات ولتستبين سبيل المجرمين

And thus do We explain the verses of the Qur `an obvious way so that those who sinned. [Al-An `am / 6:55].

Allah describes the people who sin so that we avoid and stay away, lest we fall into sin, as well as away from the road and the causes that lead to sin. Among the streets of sin is to imitate the culture and civilization of the people of ignorance, and the people are doomed and misled by Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. Due to ignorance of the causes of evil can lead one to evil itself. Conversely, if someone knows the way and cause destruction, then he will always introspective. In addition, he will tell others to avoid the causes and the destruction of it.

This is expressed companions radi Hudzaifah anhu:

كان الناس يسألون رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم عن الخير وكنت أسأله عن الشر مخافة أن يدركني (صحيح البخاري برقم (7084), وصحيح مسلم برقم (1847).

Are the companions asked the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam about the fine, but I asked him about the bad things, because I was afraid of falling into it. [Bukhari and Muslim].

Companions radi Hudzaifah anhu described to us, among the factors that cause a person plunges into the ugliness is not unaware of the evil itself. This is confirmed again by the second caliph, ie 'Umar radi anhu in the expression:

إنما تنقض عرى الإسلام عروة عروة إذا نشأ في الإسلام من لا يعرف الجاهلية

(Actually break the rope of Islam that gradually grew in Islam if the person who did not know ignorance), because if someone does not know evil, he would not deny the evil. If so, would it day by day evil will be more widespread, until then regarded as the truth. In the end, when there was no denying, then he will be deny the truth. So there is a very wrong judgment, vanity is considered correct, and which are rightly considered vanity.

These symptoms have started to appear in our lives. When there is concern from some people who care to address the moral deviance in society, then came another group calling itself the defender of human rights and freedoms. As if that has the freedom and the rights of only those who violate. As for those who obey, then where are their rights and freedoms? Who should be punished are those who deviate, but the fact that even memproleh defense. Conversely, people who walk in the truth considered insightful, no tolerance, can not disagree, bigoted, selfish, and so many taunts directed at them.

All cases of ignorance buried under the heel Messenger sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, as a form of warning to Muslims not to dig up the ignorance these matters, let alone preserve.

As stated in the words he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

ألا كل شيء من أمر الجاهلية تحت قدمي موضوع (رواه مسلم)

Katahuilah everything from affairs of Ignorance buried beneath my feet. [Reported by Muslim]

Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said: "The Word of Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam' All matters of Ignorance is under my feet, 'included in it, is all the things that they do in a variety of worship and culture, such as the great days they and others of their habits ... not including it into their culture recognized in Islam, such as rituals and diyat people were killed, and others. Due understood from the expression cultures of ignorance, is the things that are not recognized by Islam, and including in it the habits of ignorance that is not specifically prohibited "[1].

In other words he affirmed:

عن ابن عباس أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال أبغض الناس إلى الله ثلاثة ملحد في الحرم ومبتغ في الإسلام سنة الجاهلية ومطلب دم امرئ بغير حق ليهريق دمه (رواه مسلم)

"Diriwayat from Ibn Abbas z companions that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:" Man is the wrath of God is three; people commit sins forbidden in the land, people are looking for a custom ignorance of Islam and those who target a person's blood without any right to his shed (kill him) ". [Reported by Muslim]

Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah rahimahullah said: "Anyone who wants to do something from the sunnah of ignorance, it was included in this hadith. Sunnah of ignorance is all custom (custom-cultural) that they do. Due to the Sunnah is customary, the recurring habits in order to cover everyone. Namely the things they worship or do not think they think of worship ... He who does something of their customs, then indeed he has wanted sunnah ignorance. Hadith Prohibition follow generally requires everything from custom- habits of ignorance, in celebration of the big day, and also outside of the celebration of the great days ". [2]

He rahimahullah revealed again in another book: "The Word of Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam' The search for the ignorance of Islamic sunnah, 'included in it, that is all in absolute ignorance; Judaism, Christianity, Zoroastrianism, Shaibah, pagan religion, the religion of shirk , or the adoption of some of the teachings of religious ignorance, then all heresies and teachings that have mansukh (removed), has become jahiliyyah with the coming of Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Though the phrase ignorance is dominant use to people Arabic, but the meaning is the same ". [3]

Here we mention among cultural forms jahiliyyah associated with confidence.

As explained by the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam in his words:

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه عن صلى الله عليه وسلم قال لا عدوى ولا طيرة ولا هامة ولا صفر (أخرجه البخاري و مسلم)

Of Companion Abu Hurayrah radi anhu narrated that the Prophet said: "Not really (believe) disease move, not really believing the movements of birds, owls do not really believe, incorrect assumption in the month of Safar is inauspicious". [Bukhari and Muslim].

زاد مسلم: «ولا نوء ولا غول».

In an additional narrated by Imam Muslim: "Not true also believes the star, and did not believe in ghosts."

In the words of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam above, there are some habits of people of ignorance as an explanation of the scholars in hadith commenting purposes.

First: al-'Adwa.
Which believes that a disease can be passed to other people by itself without any destiny from God.

Among the cultural beliefs of people of ignorance, believing that the disease can move by itself to others, with no destiny from God. It can reduce or cancel the purity of monotheism one God. Because that can inflict illness and misfortune only God alone.

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala states in His Word:

ما أصاب من مصيبة في الأرض ولا في أنفسكم إلا في كتاب من قبل أن نبرأها إن ذلك على الله يسير لكيلا تأسوا على ما فاتكم ولا تفرحوا بما آتاكم والله لا يحب كل مختال فخور

Nothing a bencanapun that hit the earth and (also) in yourselves but is inscribed in the book (Lawh-Mahfuz) before We bring it. Verily, that is easy for Allah. (We explain such) that you may not grieve for what escapes you, and that you do not get too excited about what he hath given thee. And Allah loveth not any arrogant person boasting. [Al-Hadid/57 :22-23].

But that does not mean we can not avoid the causes that may cavil or harmful. Because in doing those causes we should not believe that because it alone can save us. If God's affair, could God do something to us without any reason. Some scholars say, because it is a violation to leave common sense, and depending on the cause is shirk.
For example, to get the kids then we have to get married. This does not mean every person who married must have children. Because there are people who do not have children of four wives. Therefore, in another hadith the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

لا عدوى ولا طيرة ولا هامة ولا صفر وفر من المجذوم كما تفر من الأسد (رواه البخاري)

Not really (believe) disease move (self), do not really believe in the movements of birds, owls do not really believe, incorrect assumption in the month of Safar is inauspicious, and avoid people who had leprosy as you avoid singga. [Bukhari].

Last fragment of the hadith "and avoid people who had leprosy as you shy away from a lion" has been proven by modern medical science truth. But Islam has much more advanced before the medical experts to prove it. This is one proof of the truth of Islam and the evidence glory.

In the above hadith there is information about the safety of the law take cause infectious diseases. In other words he said:

لا يورد ممرض على مصح (رواه مسلم)

Do not mix the sick camel in a healthy camel. [Reported by Muslim].

Some scholars have argued, the context of the above hadith two are not contradictory. The first context is aimed at people of strong faith and tawakalnya to God, especially when there is a greater maslahah, such as health workers and rescuers. Then let it solidify and tawakalnya faith in God when circumstances require them to sacrifice. Context The second hadith is for people who lack faith in God tawakalnya. Allaah knows best. [4]

Second: ath-Thiyarah.
That guess what will happen with intermediaries birds. Or raffle fate based movements of animals, such as birds and others. Sometimes called at-tathoyyur, but it means the same.

In the culture of the people of ignorance, that is if it will travel or do something, when out of the house, they first noticed the animals that pass in front of them. Animals are often used as a handle is a bird. If the animal crossed from left to right they are, according to them it is a sign of the trip and the plan will be successful, then they move on and plan. And if the animal crossed the contrary, it is a sign of bad luck or misfortune would hinder them. So they did not go on and plan. [5]

This is clearly contrary to common sense, and especially with the Islamic faith. Since the animal was moving without reasonable consideration, nor commissioned by God to tell the things unseen to humans.

Perform or leave a deed because of the movements of the animals as a measure of good and bad is shirk. Since it has been at stake besides Allah. It is simply a hissing demon prejudice to plunge men into the valley shirk. Therefore, the act is forbidden in Islam. Mentioned in the words of Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

عن معاوية بن الحكم السلمي قال قلت يا رسول الله إني حديث عهد بجاهلية وقد جاء الله بالإسلام وإن منا رجالا يأتون الكهان قال فلا تأتهم قال ومنا رجال يتطيرون قال ذاك شيء يجدونه في صدورهم فلا يصدنكم رواه مسلم.

Friends of Mu'awiyah ibn al-Hakam as-Sulami radi anhu said: I said to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam: "O Messenger of Allah, I just left the ignorance. Precisely the Allah has brought Islam, and some of us (at the time of ignorance) Nothing came soothsayer (shaman), "he replied," You do not come to them ". "And among us has gambled the fate of the birds," he replied, "Nothing like this is something you imagined in your chest, then it should not hinder you (from doing something)". [Reported by Muslim].

In a word he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam others mentioned:

من حديث ا بن مسعود مرفوعا: الطيرة شرك الطيرة شرك وما منا إلا ... ولكن الله يذهبه بالتوكل
بن مسعود (رواه أبو داود والترمذي وصححه. وجعل آخره من قول ابن مسعود)

From the Companion Ibn Mas'ud marfu '(directly to the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam): "Trust the movements of birds is shirk, believing the movements of birds is shirk (he repeated it twice), none of us except (once flashed in his mind), but God help feeling that the sole trust in God. " [Reported by Abu Dawud and at-Tirmidhi, and at-Tirmidhi menshahîhkannya, and is considered the end of the hadeeth of Ibn Mas'ood radi expression anhu].

In two hadith mentioned, pessimistic feelings that arise by basing it on the movements of the birds is a mere gesture of doubt. How to get rid of these feelings, is the sole trust in God. Because God did not make the movements of animals or birds as arguments and signs to know these things will happen.

Apostle sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam would rather the optimistic attitude of pessimism, as the words of his:

عن أنس بن مالك رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال لا عدوى ولا طيرة ويعجبني الفأل قالوا وما الفأل قال كلمة طيبة

Of Companion Anas radi anhu, he said, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam has said: "Not really (believe) disease move, not really believing movements of birds, and I prefer to pessimism," they asked him: "What was the attitude pessimistic that? " He replied, "That is a good sentence." [Bukhari and Muslim].

ولأبي داود بسند صحيح, عن عقبة بن عامر, قال: ذكرت الطيرة عند النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال أحسنها الفأل ولا ترد مسلما فإذا رأى أحدكم ما يكره فليقل اللهم لا يأتي بالحسنات إلا أنت ولا يدفع السيئات إلا أنت ولا حول ولا قوة إلا بك

Imam Abu Dawud narrated with a saheeh isnaad from Friends 'Uqbah bin' Amir radi anhu, he said: "Someone mentioned before the Prophet about trusting the movements of birds, he was denied; is best to be optimistic, do not let it returns a Muslim (from the goal), if any of you saw something he did not enjoy, then let him say: 'O Allah, nothing is able to bring good except you, and no one is able to resist kejelekkan except Thee, no power and effort except with (help) you. '"

In other words Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, anyone who is doing ath-thiyarah, he has done shirk. And as an expiation, read the prayer that he is mentioned in this hadith:

عن ابن عمر قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: من ردته الطيرة عن حاجته فقد أشرك قالوا يا رسول الله ما كفارة ذلك قال أن يقول أحدهم اللهم لا طير إلا طيرك ولا خير إلا خيرك ولا إله غيرك (رواه أحمد, وصححه الألباني في " إصلاح المساجد ": 116)

From friend Ibn 'Umar anhu, he said had said Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam: "Whoever is returned ath-thiyarah of needs, then he has done shirk". The Companions asked: "What kafarah for that, O Messenger of Allah?" The Prophet replied: "He said, 'O Allah, there is no provision of luck unless you provisions., And nothing (that can) unless you favor. No god worthy of worship except You.'" [Imam Ahmad HR, and Classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albani in the book Islâhul-Masajid, 116].

Third: al-Hamah.
That is believed that the owl is the incarnation of the man who was killed, and the killing was not rewarded with murder anyway.

Among the culture of ignorance, which is a belief that whoever murdered and was not returned to the murder as well, then it would be an owl who always asks for help and subjecting her to reply to his murder. [6]

This belief is similar to what is believed to be the reincarnation of the Hindu people. That is when someone dies and has a good deed, then the soul will move on to new and better body. Conversely, if bad deeds, then the soul will move into the body of an animal. This belief in the absence of the Day of Resurrection and Reckoning, because they do not believe in the hereafter. [7]

It is also believed by many people who do not understand Islam. They do not realize that this assumption is contrary to the Islamic faith. In Islam, a person who has died, his soul will never return to the world, but being in nature barzah. The belief some people imitation, like so snake, pig, tiger, pocong and so on, this is a falsehood and kufr beliefs.

Actually that resembles a corpse or an imitation tersebur is qorin person. Qorin, it means angels or jinn who had been with men during her life. Every human being has two qorin, one angel and one of the jinn. During his life on earth, qorin of angels constantly motivate people towards the good. The qorin of the jinn, he always motivated to bad directions. So that resembles the shape of an animal corpse or sometimes, is qorin of jinn. He can mimic the body in shape and sound. It is mentioned Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam in his saying:

عن عبد الله بن مسعود قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ما منكم من أحد إلا وقد وكل به قرينه من الجن قالوا وإياك يا رسول الله قال وإياي إلا أن الله أعانني عليه فأسلم فلا يأمرني إلا بخير (رواه مسلم)

From Friends 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud radi anhu, he said: It is said the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam: "No one among you except with no qorinnya of Jin". The Companions asked: "You also, O Messenger of Allah?" Prophet replied, "Including me, but God has helped me on it, so I survived. So he did not tell me but to the good". [Reported by Muslim].

Words فأسلم in the above hadith, the scholars differ in interpretation. Some argue that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam survived it thanks to the help of God, and some scholars understand that the qorin Islam. Allaah knows best.
In another narration that qorin was two, one of the jinn and the other angels.

وقد وكل به قرينه من الجن وقرينه من الملائكة (رواه مسلم)

And indeed with no qorrin of jinn and qorin of angels. [Reported by Muslim].

So the assumption is not true that some people dead when the soul is not acceptable to God he would wander the earth. But the spirit which is not opened doors for him to be placed in the sky sijjîn, which is one part of nature barzah. Sijjîn is where the spirit of the infidels. [8]

The souls of the martyrs', they are in the belly of a bird paradise, he ate and drank from fruits and river-sngai heaven, till his body was returned to the original after the Hour arrives. Mentioned in the words of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

عن مسروق قال سألنا عبد الله عن هذه الآية ولا تحسبن الذين قتلوا في سبيل الله أمواتا بل أحياء عند ربهم يرزقون قال أما إنا قد سألنا عن ذلك فقال أرواحهم في جوف طير خضر لها قناديل معلقة بالعرش تسرح من الجنة حيث شاءت (رواه مسلم)

From Masruq, he said: I asked 'Abullah bin Mas'ud about the verse, "Do not you think the people who died (Jihad) in Allah's way is off, but they are alive in the Lord's given them good luck," Ibn Mas'ud said: "We have asked about it (the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam)," he said: "Ruh-ruh them in the belly of the green bird, her lantern that hung with the' Throne, he travels anywhere in paradise he likes ". [Reported by Muslim]. [9]

Fourth: Safar
That believes in Safar as inauspicious month.

These people have a culture of ignorance belief that some days or months to bring bad luck and misfortune. As their confidence and Safar month Shawwal. In that month, they leave important matters or large, such as weddings, trade and travel.

This belief was also imitated by most people today, such as Friday night believed POND (Javanese calendar) is the day unlucky and dangerous when going to sea to catch fish at night. Similarly believes Tuesday as a day of fire, then there should be is traveling on that day, and many other beliefs associated with the day, month and year. Similarly, the confidence of the Chinese people in naming years. Year of the Dragon is a less favorable year, the year was the year that benefit the horse and so on.

Such convictions show that nothing can bring harm other than Allah. And days and months is merely a place and time to do activities for humans, so there is absolutely no relation to the disaster or calamity. All that happens is the will of God, and his testimonies, without the intervention of any creature in the universe set. Therefore, he who believes such beliefs of ignorance, then he has done shirk in tawhid rububiyah. Evil because they belief, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam deny, as contained in the hadith that we are bincangkan this.

CULTURE-CULTURAL wary of Ignorance

DR Ustadz Ali Musri Semjan Son


Fifth, an-Nau '.
That trust stars.

Among those customs of ignorance is to believe the stars. Among them there is even worshiped the stars. They believe there are certain stars who bring blessings and there are certain stars bring misfortune and disaster. This belief is dominating the lives of the people of ignorance. As well as most people believe about the birth of stars. They pinned their hopes to the stars, such as seeking a mate, determine a suitable job, and so on.

Also among their beliefs when there is a shooting star (meteor), then it is a sign of an important person who was born or died.

عن عبد الله بن عباس قال أخبرني رجل من أصحاب النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم من الأنصار أنهم بينما هم جلوس ليلة مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم رمي بنجم فاستنار فقال لهم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ماذا كنتم تقولون في الجاهلية إذا رمي بمثل هذا قالوا الله ورسوله أعلم كنا نقول ولد الليلة رجل عظيم ومات رجل عظيم فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فإنها لا يرمى بها لموت أحد ولا لحياته ولكن ربنا تبارك وتعالى اسمه إذا قضى أمرا سبح حملة العرش ثم سبح أهل السماء الذين يلونهم حتى يبلغ التسبيح أهل هذه السماء الدنيا ثم قال الذين يلون حملة العرش لحملة العرش ماذا قال ربكم فيخبرونهم ماذا قال قال فيستخبر بعض أهل السماوات بعضا حتى يبلغ الخبر هذه السماء الدنيا فتخطف الجن السمع فيقذفون إلى أوليائهم ويرمون به فما جاءوا به على وجهه فهو حق ولكنهم يقرفون فيه ويزيدون

From Friends' Abdullah ibn 'Abbaas anhu, he said: One of companions of the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam from the Ansar told me. As they sat with the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam one night, no stars (mateor) fell emit light. Then the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam asked them: "What are you saying at the time of ignorance when there throw (mateor) like this?" They replied: "Allah and His Messenger know, we used to say, 'this night was born of a respectable and honorable man dead,' and the Prophet explained:" It is precisely because the star was not thrown in a person's death and also because a person's birth. However, our Lord Tabaaraka wa Ta'ala, where it has been decided a case, hymn of the angels who bring 'Throne. This was followed by the angels of heaven are under them, until the beads were the angels of heaven world. Then the angels under the angels carriers 'Throne ask the angels carriers' Throne, What is said of our Lord? Then they told me what God said to them. Then the angels of heaven did ask each other the world among themselves, so the news reached to the sky world. So the genie attempt to eavesdrop, and they convey to the guardian-walitnya (witch). So they were thrown to the stars. The news they brought in its entirety, but they are actually interfering with their lies and add-add ". [Reported by Muslim].

Through the above hadith, we can know some things, including the following.

1. Describe the beliefs of people of ignorance towards the stars.
2. Explaining evil belief.
3. Among usability stars. is to cast out demons (jinn) who tried to steal sky news.
4. Sorcerer, shaman, seer and soothsayer guardians are demons (jinn).
5. Explained that sorcerers, shamans, seers and soothsayers do not know the unseen but upon notice demons (jinn).
6. Illegitimate believe witches, shaman, astrologer and fortune-teller,
7. Explain that the demons (jinn) mix news with lies.

In addition, the people of ignorance also ask for rain by means of the stars. All that is forbidden for any Muslim because it is a tangible shirk. As word of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

عن زيد بن خالد الجهني أنه قال صلى لنا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم صلاة الصبح بالحديبية في إثر سماء كانت من الليل فلما انصرف أقبل على الناس فقال هل تدرون ماذا قال ربكم قالوا الله ورسوله أعلم قال قال أصبح من عبادي مؤمن بي وكافر فأما من قال مطرنا بفضل الله وبرحمته فذلك مؤمن بي كافر بالكوكب وأما من قال مطرنا بنوء كذا وكذا فذلك كافر بي مؤمن بالكوكب
رواه أبو داود, وقال الشيخ الألباني: صحيح.

From Dzaid ibn Khalid al-Juhani, he said: We pray Allah diimami Shubuh in Hudzaibiyah the former rain which fell during the night. When the Prophet finished, his face to the congregation, and said: "Do you know what your Lord has said?" The Companions said: "Allah and His Messenger know better." He said: "Lord you said, 'This morning among my servants there who believe with me and others who disbelieve. Whoever says our blessings rain down grace and mercy of God, he is a believer with me and unbelievers with stars. As for those who say we rain down blessings this star and this, then that person is an infidel with me, believe in the stars'. " [Reported by Abu Dawud. And Shaykh al-Albani considers this hadeeth saheeh].

In other words he stated:

عن أبي مالك الأشعري أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال أربع في أمتي من أمر الجاهلية لا يتركونهن الفخر في الأحساب والطعن في الأنساب والاستسقاء بالنجوم والنياحة (رواه مسلم)

Of Abu Malik al-Ash'ari, that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said: "There are four things in the middle of my people from the case of ignorance, they are difficult to abandon; pride in descent, denounced the offspring of others, for rain through the medium of the stars , and lamented corpse ". [Reported by Muslim].

In this hadith clearly stated some of the habits of ignorance, of which the rain with an intermediary asking the stars. The customs mentioned in the Hadith are described in detail in point the seventh, eighth and ninth. Therefore, it is mentioned in the hadeeth of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam that anyone who studies the stars, then indeed he studied one branch of magic.

عن ابن عباس قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم من اقتبس علما من النجوم اقتبس شعبة من السحر زاد ما زاد (قال الشيخ الألباني: حسن)

From Ibn 'Abbaas anhu, he said: It is said the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam: "Whoever studied augury, meaning he has learned a branch of witchcraft, will always grow as long as he remained learn". [Reported by Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah. According to Shaykh al-Albani, the hadith is hasan].

The meaning is the science of augury divination by means of the stars. Since the star has other uses, namely as a direction for fishermen at sea, or for travelers while in the desert. Allah says in the holy book of Al-Qur `an:

وعلامات وبالنجم هم يهتدون

And (He created) the signs (the guide) and by the stars they get a clue (in the evening). [An-Nahl/16: 16]

Qotadah Imam explained: "The purpose created the stars, there are three: to garnish the heavens, as a direction when night, to cast out demons who steal sky news. Whoever passes than that, he has lied, has eliminated parts , and has been exaggerated to know something that he does not have knowledge tetangnya ". [10]

Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah explained that the star used to throw the devil is not the same with the star that became a direction to sailors or to people on the way in the desert. Because stars are used to throw the devil moved from its place, but the star of the signpost remains in place, though all are called stars. As the naming of animals and reptiles animals, humans, animals, insects and others. [11] Perhaps the star pitcher devil, we used to know in our country as the meteor. Allaah knows best.

Prohibition of augury or divination science, believing stars as arguments to the events in the earth no doubt. Mentioned in the words of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

من أتى عرافا فسأله عن شيء لم تقبل له صلاة أربعين ليلة (رواه مسلم)

Whoever came soothsayer (astrologer) to inquire some thing neighbor, prayer is not accepted for forty days. [Reported by Muslim].

Fortune-teller or soothsayer includes any person who claims to know the unseen things will happen, like a shaman, astronomer, astrologer, and others. [12] Curiously in the community, they were popularly called as the smart people, to trick people lay people.

Sixth: al-Ghul.
That is the belief in ghosts that can mislead and harm humans in the way.

According to these assumptions, the ghost appears in different forms as it passes through the desert and mislead and harm humans. Then the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam deny the allegation but did not deny its existence. While the people of ignorance, they believe that ghosts can change shape and harm humans. This belief includes shirk, because scare something unseen but Allah, and believe in having kemudaratan. [13]

Therefore, in the habits of the people of ignorance when stopped down somewhere, they say: "I seek refuge from the jinn guard this place, from the mischief they are stupid people." So in between the devil was stealing their luggage. So they begged the jin at the site: "We are neighbors," the genie replied, and then return their goods. [14]

In this regard the Prophet teaches, if we stop at a place on a journey ought to read the following prayer:

إذا نزل أحدكم منزلا فليقل أعوذ بكلمات الله التامات من شر ما خلق فإنه لا يضره شيء حتى يرتحل منه (رواه مسلم)

If one of you stops at a place let him read, a'udzu bi kalimatillahittammati min syarrima kholak (I seek refuge with Allah sentences kejelekkan perfect from what He has created), then surely he would not be disturbed by nothing until he left place. [Reported by Muslim].

عن أبي مالك الأشعري أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال أربع في أمتي من أمر الجاهلية لا يتركونهن الفخر في الأحساب والطعن في الأنساب والاستسقاء بالنجوم والنياحة (رواه مسلم)

Of Abu Malik al-Ash'ari, that the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said: "There are four things in the middle of my people from the case of ignorance, they are difficult to abandon; pride in descent, denounced the offspring of others, for rain through the medium of the stars , and lamented corpse ". [Reported by Muslim].

In the hadith of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam above there are four very difficult habit ignorance left by some of these people. And to be more orderly and easier to understand and calculate the habits of those ignorant can we peel in this discussion, we proceed in the following numbers.

Seventh: Proud Descendants.
Among the habits of the people of ignorance, is pleased to boast the goodness and advantages of their fathers. Clearly this is contrary to the noble teachings of Islam, because Islam is not a measure of glory in the form of a handsome, beautiful face, many treasures, high office, or title of the circular, but the glory is measured by one's devotion to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. Allah says:

يا أيها الناس إنا خلقناكم من ذكر وأنثى وجعلناكم شعوبا وقبائل لتعارفوا إن أكرمكم عند الله أتقاكم إن الله عليم خبير

O mankind, indeed We have created you from a male and a female, and made you a nation-nations and tribes that ye may know each other. Verily the noblest among you in the sight of God is the most pious. Verily Allah knows anymore Mahateliti. (Qs al-Hujurat/49: 13).

Presumably this glory standards already apparent in some of our views, so some spur of glory beyond piety. As public opinion began to err in judgment, as it's purpose and life course shifted. So many abuses occur in various lines of life. There was a reach with his good looks and beauty, even in the presence of human genitalia showing. There also reach out to the property, even get a way unlawful. There also reach out to the rank and position, even falsifying documents and bribery. There is more to reach out to a degree, even by way of purchase. Na'udzubllah min forbid.

Hopefully with the mutual reminding, the view can be straightened again. Let us achieve glory with devotion to Allah. Assets can lead to piety if generated from the halal and kosher diinfaqkan on. Similarly, other professions, let serve as a facility to achieve piety and good pleasure of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala.

So is the descent. In search of glory, some people there who claim to be descendants of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Even more worrying is when recognition is being used to perform legal acts of heresy and apostasy in religion. Even if someone actually descendant of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, but as long as he does not really follow the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam, then surely not worth the descent relationship with Allah. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

ومن بطأ به عمله لم يسرع به نسبه (رواه مسلم)

And people who slowed charity, can not be accelerated by the relationship of the offspring.

Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said to both his uncle and his own daughter, that he sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam can not keep them from Allaah at all.

قال النبي: يا عباس بن عبد المطلب لا أغني عنك من الله شيئا يا صفية عمة رسول الله لا أغني عنك من الله شيئا يا فاطمة بنت رسول الله سليني بما شئت لا أغني عنك من الله شيئا (متفق عليه)

The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said: "O' Abbas ibn 'Abdul-Muttalib! I can not take care of (Allaah) God at all. Shofiyah uncle O Allah, I can not take care of (Allaah) God at all. Ask Allah O Fatima bint treasure me whatever you want, I can not take care of (Allaah) God at all. " [Bukhari and Muslim].

Therefore, if someone actually descendant of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam do not solely rely on genealogical relationships. Genealogical relationships that would make it more noble, if accompanied by good deeds. So love the family of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam more than others, not because the relationship descent alone. However, if the family of the Prophet was a believer who worships, it is compulsory for us to love him more than the other. This is because of two things, because piety and because offspring relationship with the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. So it's not true, that there are some people considered that Ahlus-Sunnah do not love the family of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Love them does not mean to give the position to them beyond God-given right, as idolize them and consider them infallible from error.

Eighth, denounces Descendants of Others.
Among the habits of the people of ignorance, is pleased to denounce the descendants of others. Perhaps this behavior is the impact of mutual pride in the offspring. So to defend the more noble offspring, then he denounced the offspring of others. For example, a person's descendants deny, deny people who claim to be descendants of a particular tribe, or spread disgrace and ugliness descendant of someone or a certain ethnic group. This is all the culture and customs of ignorance that should be avoided by a Muslim.

In the present often the parents who deny their children. The act was included in the prohibition hadith. Instead the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam also prohibits a person claiming to be the descendants of a particular tribe, but it is not from them. For example, people who claim to be descendants of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, and he was not a descendant of the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam. Word he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:

إن من أعظم الفرى أن يدعي الرجل إلى غير أبيه أو يري عينه ما لم تر أو يقول على رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ما لم يقل (رواه البخاري)

Truly huge lie on the side of God, someone who claims to other than his father. Or admitted her to see what he had not seen. Or say to the Messenger of something he did not say. [Bukhari].

In another narration he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

من ادعى إلى غير أبيه وهو يعلم فالجنة عليه حرام (متفق عليه)

Those who confess to other than his father while he knows that he is not the father, it is forbidden him Paradise. [Bukhari and Muslim].

Ninth: an-Niyâhah.
That lament bodies.

Among the customs of ignorance, that is lamenting the corpse. In Islam, it is forbidden act like, because as if he opposed the decision and decree of God.

At the time of ignorance, if one of the family member dies, the surviving family members lamenting the face banging and tearing clothes. Some are even locked himself in his house and always dressed shabby until the end. Therefore, it comes a threat to those who mourn the dead at the end of the hadith:

وقال النائحة إذا لم تتب قبل موتها تقام يوم القيامة وعليها سربال من قطران ودرع من جرب (رواه مسلم)

And the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said: "Women who bemoan the body when not repent before he died, he dibanglitkan wear on the day of hot lead and a coat of hot asphalt. [Reported by Muslim].

In another hadith stated:

عن عبد الله رضي الله عنه قال قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ليس منا من لطم الخدود وشق الجيوب ودعا بدعوى الجاهلية (متفق عليه)

From 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud radi anhu he said: It is said the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam: "Excluding our group who face banging and tearing clothes and calls to the call of ignorance". [Bukhari and Muslim].

At this time, the habit is still imitated by a small portion of this people. And more astray, they make it as worship to become closer to Allah. As performed by Shi'ites Rafidhah each year on the tenth day of Muharram in the desert of Karbala. This habit is clearly a real opposition to the teachings of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam.

In the midst of the rapid advances in technology and information, while others assess that progress is achieved by ignoring the religious norms. There's also assume, religion is the bottleneck of progress, especially the teachings of religion and committed and consistent. Economic needs should be a top priority in order to achieve welfare and prosperity. Even for a large dredge income from tourism, ancient customs reinstated while preserving all the ancient cultures. For example, the habit of a tribe that was not dressed to be conserved, the celebration of giving offerings to the mountain and the sea, and to places that are considered sacred have always done.

Is not this a mistake in thinking and religion? In sense, this behavior is contrary to the slogan of life, that life must be developed in every respect.

Similarly, from the point of view of religion, this practice is contrary to the duties Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, knocking out the foundation pillars of monotheism and faith. Therefore, we must be alert and always be alert in keeping the faith. Do not be fooled by slogans that seemed beautiful, but ultimately misleading. Did not the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam was sent to combat all acts of ignorance?

Allaah knows best, washalallahu 'ala Muhammad wa Nabiyina' ala alihi washahbihi ajma'în.
