protect us from riya’

From the Messenger of Allah, Rasulullah s.a.w,
” The First of people who will be judged on the Day of Judgement will be a man who has died a martyr. He will be brought and Allah will make known to him His Favors and will recognize them. (ALLAH) will say: And what did you do with them..? He will say: I fought for you until i died a martyr. (ALLAH) said: YOU HAVE LIED. YOu did fight so that it might be said(0f you). He is courageous. And so it was said. Then he will be ordered to be dragged on his face until he is cast into Hellfire.
(Next) will be a man who has studied(religious) knowledge and has taught it and who used to recite the Quran. he will be brought and Allah will make known to him His Favors and he will recognize theme. (ALLAH) will say: And what did you do with them? He will say: I studied (religious) knowledge and taught it and I recited the Quran for Your Sake. Allah will say: You have lied. You did but study (religious) knowledge so that it might be said (of you). He is learned. And you recited the Quran so that it might be said(of you). He is a reciter. And so it was said. Then he will be ordered to be dragged on his face until he is cast into Hellfire.
(Then) will come a man whom Allah had made rich and to whom He had given all kinds of wealth. He will be brought and Allah will make known to him His Favors and he will recognize them. Allah will say: And what did you do with them? He will say: I have left no way in which You like money to be spent without spending for Your sake. Allah will say: You have lied. You did but do so that it might be said(of you). He is generous. And so it was said. Then he will be ordered to be dragged on his face until he is cast into Hellfire.”



...



So, be careful. We, are in great danger. Think, what we really want. Yes, i said that we have to be somebody big. But it is not for fame and popularity. Never hope that we will leave this world with great deeds which people will talk about. What we are doing is not for others, but for Ourselves. Allah doesn’t need us but He acknowledge His servants that tied their best to fight for His Ad- Deen..
May Allah protect us from riya’..

31 Personal Duas to Choose From


source

http://www.soundvision.com/info/ramadan/10.dua.asp



by Abdul Malik Mujahid

Dua (supplication) is the essence of worship. (Anas, may Allah be pleased with him related that the Prophet said this as reported in Tirmidhi).

The Prophet said: Duas of three persons are not refused: a fasting man when breaking the fast, a just ruler, and an oppressed person, Allah's blessings be upon him. (Abu Huraira in Tirmidhi).

No one makes a Dua without Allah giving him what he asks for, or keeping away from him a similar amount of evil, provided he does not ask for something sinful, or for breaking family ties (Jabir related this as the Prophet saying: Tirmidhi).

For a number of non-Arabic speaking Muslims, Duas are sometimes perceived as the good Arabic words Imams utter after prayers. They usually resort to simply repeating "Ameen" after everyone else, without understanding what they are asking Allah for.

Other non-Arabic speaking Muslims may try to memorize some of the major Duas in Arabic and can and do understand what's being said.

But one thing that's often forgotten about Dua is that it's direct communication with Allah. And Allah is multilingual. He actually created and knows all languages, whether it's the specific dialect of your village back home of the street talk of urban America.

Allah also knows what's hidden in the deep recesses of our hearts. Those feelings of pain, anguish, resentment, love, hatred, bitterness, longing, etc. that we so successfully hide from everyone else, including our closest family members and friends.

So why not let it all out. Why not let Allah be your "therapist". Let your prayer mat be your "couch" while you reveal and ask the One who is in control, Who knows you better than you know yourself, for all that you want in these next ten days and especially, nights, of Ramadan.

There are Duas that are definitely part of the Sunnah which you can and should use during Laylatul Qadr.

For example in this Hadith: It is narrated from Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, that she said: I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, if I know what night is the Night of Qadr what should I say?.' He said: 'Say: O Allah you are embodiment of forgiveness and you love to pardon so pardon me.' [Ahmad, Ibn Majah, Tirmidhi]

However, Dua cannot be done in a distracted manner, as the Prophet has said in a Hadith narrated by Abu Huraira: Make Dua and be assured of being answered, and know that Allah does not answer a Dua from a careless heart which is not concentrating (Tirmidhi).

Here are some examples of personal, relevant Duas you can make in these remaining days of Ramadan, Insha Allah (God willing):

1. Oh Allah, please forgive me for all of the bad that I've done, and I continue to do. You are so Merciful and kind, please forgive me, and help me stay away from all that's wrong. It's so hard for me, and I'm so weak but You are the Strong. Please increase me in sincerity.

2. Oh Allah, I beg You, please guide my parents and my sister toward You. Do not let them die without realizing who their Lord is. Let them see the truth and help them resist the pressure of friends who try to turn them away from You.

3. Oh Allah, bless those fine human beings with your bounties whose kind heart reaches out to their Christian neighbors in Pakistan and Muslim neighbors in America.

4. Oh Allah, please guide my neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Curtis, toward You. They are such decent, good people, and they are so good to us. They have never opposed us in our Deen, and You have seen how they have been so open to us. Please guide them to the right path.

5. Oh Allah, make every single aspect of my life be for You and in service of Your Creation. Please remove all false intentions that I have.

6. Oh Allah, save humanity from being its own enemy. Protect Your creation from oppression. Save the people of Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, Kashmir,and Chechnya from internal and external oppressors and give them justice. Protect us all from violence, fear and danger, You are our Protector.

7. Ya Allah, let me love You as You deserved to be loved, and let me fear You as You deserve to be feared, and let me leave this world serving Your creation for Your sake.

8. Oh Allah, increase me in knowledge, but let this knowledge be with sincerity, not seeking fame, glory, status, material wealth. Let this knowledge serve Your cause in a way that You accept, and let it benefit humanity.

9. Oh Allah, please guide my children and all children. They are surrounded by so much temptation and Haram (forbidden things). Protect them my Lord from all of the evil influences that are around them. Give them friends who will strengthen their faith and help them stay on the Straight Path.

10. Oh Allah, guide me to seek my knowledge of You and this blessed Deen (religion) from those who are sincere, who possess the correct Islamic knowledge, who are moderate and gentle, who are not harsh or impatient with me, and who understand where I'm coming from, my situation as a Muslim in this country, living in this world today.

11. Oh Allah, please help me stay away from Haram in achieving the best of this world.

12. Oh Allah, don't let me ever turn away from You, no matter how many trials and difficulties You test me with. Let these difficulties serve to make me a stronger Muslim and more sincere to You.

13. Oh Allah, bless our scholars and leaders who are striving to establish Islam in this world on the balanced path of Your beloved Prophet.

14. Oh Allah, bless all of those who have taught me about You and Islam, from little Marya at the Islamic school, who taught me the importance of being patient with little kids, to Shaykh Ikram, who, despite his harshness, taught me the importance of speaking the Truth, no matter how much others dislike it.

15. Oh Allah, give me the ability to forgive all those who have hurt me in word and deed, especially my brother ......, who has ignored every attempt I have made to reconcile with him. And please Oh Allah, join our hearts.

16. Oh Allah, please get me out of this horrible debt that is burdening me. Please give me means that are Halal (Islamically permissible) to get out of this as soon as possible, so that I can face You on the Day of Judgment free of all debts.

17. Oh Allah, open a way for my son to marry as soon as possible. Let him marry a sister who is sincere and devoted to You and who is compatible with him.

18. Oh Allah, open a way for my daughter Salma to marry as soon as possible. Let her marry a brother who is sincere and devoted to You and who is compatible with her.

19. Oh Allah, please grant my friend Ali and his wife Shaheen healthy children. They so badly want children and they Insha Allah would make such great Muslim parents. Please grant them children who will grow up to be a source of Mercy for them.

20. Oh Allah, help orphans and poor wherever they are, but especially right now in Afghanistan. Give me the means and ability to do whatever I can for them.

21. Oh Allah, guide and protect our teenagers who need Your Help and Guidance from all of the temptations of sex, drugs, alcohol and all of the other Harams in our society.

22. Oh Allah, cleanse my heart of the sicknesses of arrogance and pride and let me die as one of the sincere, humble Muslims.

23. Oh Allah, all of my brothers and sisters who are suffering for Your sake through torture, violence, in jails, etc., around the world please forgive their sins and grant them Paradise.

24. Oh Allah, I have been so impatient and angry in my behavior, please give me patience and help me control my anger for Your sake.

25. Oh Allah, open a way for me to make Hajj as soon as possible, so that I can fulfill my obligation to You.

26. Oh Allah, give my sister Lisa patience with her cancer. She is in so much pain because of her treatments. Please give her patience and let her sickness be a way for her sins to be forgiven.

27. Oh Allah, bless brothers Ali, Mike and Manzoor, who are always at our Masjid working on repairs, cleaning bathrooms or keeping the place clean after everyone else has left a mess.

28. Oh Allah, lift the veils from the eyes of those who have been deceived into seeing Islam as something bad because of ignorance and media stereotypes.

29. Oh Allah, bring all humans closer to You and each other. Please do not make us Muslims a test for them with our misrepresentation of Islam because of our bad behavior.

30. Oh Allah, help me stop my bad habits of eating and talking too much.

31. Oh Allah, please help me give up smoking this year. It's so hard to give up smoking after all of these years, but only You can make it easy.

These duas are being written just as guidelines. No names are real. Please adopt, modify, and write your own Duas. If you like. share those with others in our forums. The point is to get into talking to our Lord directly, in our style, in our language. While talking to Him with our forehead on His earth in Sajdah (prostration), we may reach a point where our words and minds may give way to a reflective heart which may help us talk to our Lord. It is Sajdah (the position of prostration in prayer) where a servants talks to his Lord.

Please don't say that Allah knows what you need. Yes, He does. But He also loves to hear from you. Consider this Hadith: Abu Huraira related that the Prophet said: Allah is angry with those who do not ask Him for anything (Tirmidhi).

menjalankan 13 projek penyelidik oleh prof MKI

satu usaha yang saya kagumi dan patut dicontohi oleh ramai prof lain



...

http://muhdkamil.net/kehidupan/2010/01/30/hidup-baru/



Prinsipnya mudah, “saya suruh, saya bantu dan kita lakukan sama-sama”.

Pertama, saya derafkan topik penyelidikan, metodologi dan mengusahakan data-data supaya kelihatan mudah untuk diakses. Saya bahagikan kumpulan-kumpulan penyelidikan di kalangan mereka yang telah secara sukarela berjumpa dan menawarkan diri untuk bekerjasama dengan saya.

Ia berlaku 3-4 bulan sebelum saya menamatkan perkhidmatan sebagai pengarah kampus. Akhirnya, terdapat 21 penyelidik – majoritinya pensyarah baru – yang akan mula bergerak menjalankan 13 projek penyelidik. Kami bertemu dalam satu mesyuarat khas. Saya mulakan dengan bercerita:

1. Ilmu perlu dikongsi. Tiada penumpang dan kesemuanya perlu bekerja atas sifat saling bantu membantu.
2. Ia satu tugas yang menyeronokkan bukan membebankan.
3. Kesemua 13 projek ini akan dibentangkan di konferens peringkat antarabangsa pada awal tahun hadapan.
4. Setiap bulan akan ada pembentangan untuk masyarakat UiTM Johor turut sama belajar tentang apa yang sedang kita lakukan.
5. Pembentangan akan dilakukan pada pukul 12.10 hingga 12.40 tengahari ketika hampir kebanyakan orang tiada kelas. Ia ringkas, tiada ritual, tiada makan-minum. Kita sama-sama memberi idea dan memerhatikan perkembangan penyelidikan tersebut.
6. Saya akan memperuntukan sejam/seminggu untuk setiap kumpulan.
7. Kesemua projek akan disiapkan dalam tempoh enam bulan.
8. Jadikan topik yang sedang kita lakukan sebagai asas untuk melanjutkan pelajaran di peringkat PhD.

Saya seronok. Pertama, kami sudah mempunyai data perakaunan 1998 – 2008 untuk lebih 200 buah firma yang akan digunakan oleh hampir kesemua kumpulan penyelidik dalam kapasiti yang berbeza. Kedua, kami mempunyai laporan kewangan yang lengkap daripada satu sektor yang boleh dijadikan asas penyelidikan untuk beberapa projek.

Allah memudahkan!

Pengalaman saya beramal dengan Surah Al-Waqiah

Suatu ketika dahulu, saya mengalami masalah kewangan yang agak dasyat. Masalah kerja. Masalah rumahtangga. dan pelbagai masalah yang timbul berpunca dari masalah kewangan.

Sejak saya diperkenalkan dengan surah al-Waqiah ini, dan saya amalkan sehingga hari ini tanpa tinggalkan walau sehari… kini saya telah pun menghafalnya. Seringkali juga saya membaca surah ini ketika solat (sendiri / jadi imam).
Disamping itu, solat Dhuha juga jadikan amalan.

Allah Maha Kaya dan Luas dengan rezekinya. Saya telah menerima limpahan rezeki tanpa batas… Ketika itu saya tiada pekerjaan dalam masa 7 bulan saya tetap mendapat rezeki dari sumber yang tidak disangka-sangka. Saya memang bersyukur dengan KurniaanNya.

Pernah saya ditegur oleh kawan-kawan agar memperbaiki doa saya kepada ‘Ya Allah Limpahkan rezekiku mengikut kemampuanku’ kerana saya mendapat banyak peluang rezeki sehingga tak mampu menguruskannya… Segala pujian bagi Allah.

Saya bermula membaca surah al waqiah ini merujuk kepada:
http://scholaris.com/islam/audio/recitation/AL-WAQIAH.htm

Print untuk mudah di bawa ke mana-mana dan sebaiknya hafal. InsyaAllah, niat yang baik dipemudahkan.

Bacaan Surah al Waqiah hebat di sini:

Membuat saya terus jatuh cinta dengan surah ini.

Nanti saya bagi tip bagaimana untuk bermula mengamalkan surah ini sebagaimana pengalaman.

MOHD ZIN HAMID
Salam semua,

Terima kasih kerana berkongsi pengalaman dalam mengamalkan surah Al-waqiah. Dari pengalaman saya sejak mengamalkan surah al-waqiah ini saya rasa banyak perkara di permudahkan Allah. Hanya individu yang mengamalkan surah ini dapat merasakan perbezaannya. Allah memberi rezki kepada kita dengan pelbagai cara dan sumber. Kesihatan yang kita nikmati sebagai contohnya adalah rezeki. Kejayaan kepada anak2 kita sebagai contohnya adalah rezeki. Jangan sekali kita menyebut ”alah..dah tak ada rezeki”..jangan disebut!!!. Oleh itu yakini surah ini dan buka perspektif rezeki itu dengan lebih luas lagi. Maksud saya kalau rezeki itu tidak terus kepada kita ianya kepada isteri/suami ibu bapa/anak2 kita. Oleh itu bersyukurlah dan sentiasa bersedekah atas rezeki yang diterima. Mereka yang bersedekah itu adala mereka yang di pilih ALLAH untuk melakukan kebajikan. Juga dinasihati jangan sekali kita merasa takabur dan riya atas rezeki yang di kurniakan.ALhamdullilah syukur kepada ALLAH.##

Salam,

Saya disarankan oleh Tn Hj Lokman untuk mengamalkan surah waqiah ini. ( http://www.syifa-alhidayah.com ) *sila baca maklumat peribadi beliau.

Sebenarnya surah ini telah menjadi darah daging saya dan membacanya merupakan hobi. Tak kira di mana saya membacanya. Sudah lebih 5 tahun mengamalkannya.

Malah saya tidak pernah tinggalkan walau seharipun tanpa membacanya. InsyaAllah.

Secara jujur saya katakan rezeki melimpah ruah sehingga hari ini. Setiap jumaat saya bersyukur dapat membantu anak2 yatim secara istiqamah.

Bagi yang baru bermula mengamalkan surah ini:

Mulakan dengan Al-Fatihah hadiahkan pada RasulAllah.
Selawat 11 kali

Baca ayat surah waqiah ini
bermula dari ayat ke 36 sehingga ayat 74

Jika berhajat menghafalnya (sila baca setiap hari dalam tempoh 21 atau 40 hari)

Jika baca 40kali non-stop dalam satu hari shj, insyaAllah dah boleh hafal. Percayalah.

Setelah lancar barulah baca surah ini sepenuhnya.
Allah hanya uji hamba yang disayangi Ujian saya dulu tak kurang hebatnya.

Amalan lain seperti solat Dhuha, puasa sunat dan bersedekah pasti memberi pengalaman luarbiasa.

Tahniah kepada semua. Selamat beramal.

A Woman Who Reads...

A Woman Who Reads...


One morning a husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, his wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, drops anchor and begins to read her book. Along comes a game warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, ma'am. What are you doing?"

"Reading a book," she replies.

"You're in a restricted fishing area," he informs her.

"I'm sorry, Officer, but I'm not fishing, I'm reading."

"Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up."

"If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault, "says the woman.

"But I have not even touched you," says the game warden.

"That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment."

"Have a nice day, ma'am," he said, and left.

Moral of this story: Never argue with a woman who reads.
It is likely she can also think.

Asalamualaikum…

Saya telah mengamal membaca surah alwaqiah setiap jari tanpa jemu sudah 6 tahun. Ada hari saya baca 3 kali selepas isyak, atau baca 1kali lepas asar atau baca 3 kali lepas magrib atau 1 kali selepas subuh. Ini kerana jadual kerja saya yang sibuk. Saya menjalankan perniagaan sendiri. Saya menjalankan perniagaan network marketing. Hasilnya perniagaan saya maju dan mendapat rezeki yang datangnya dari segenap pelusuk alam yang tidak di duga dan rezeki yang berlapis2. Wang banyak datang dan saya dapat keluar dari masalah kewangan. Disamping itu saya dapat menyelesaikan hutang2 rumah, kad kredit dan hutang peribadi. Setiap bulan saya dapat menyimpan dengan banyak di dalam bank. Rezeki makanan dan kesihatan pun bertambah. Allah s.w.t memudahkan segala urusan saya. Ramai orang senang berurusan dengan saya. Alhamdulillah sekarang saya semakin kaya dan kaya. Rezeki yang Allah beri kepada saya saya sedekah dan keluarkan zakat, membantu orang2 susah dan anak2 yatim. Saya juga mengamalkan solat sunat Dhuha setiap hari, sunat hajat , solat tahajud dan soolat taubat. Disamping itu saya juga menjaga solat, rajin membaca quran dan berpuasa isnin khamis. Selepas itu saya berusaha bersunggug2 dan bertawakal kepada Allah. Hasilnya Allah beri kekayaan kepada saya. Jadi amallah selalu surah al waqiah ini.

Case Study: Year 2 Intensive Reading Support Materials

Session 2: Assessing the class using a running record

Key points Session notes
Aims and overview The aim of the session is to:

 Assess Year 2 children working between levels 1b and 2b using running records.

 Identify the target group

Before the session
 Familiarise yourself with the texts to be used for assessment and the conventions/process used for taking running records. (See PM Benchmark Kit, or guidance on running records in additional resources and Resource 5: Using Running Records.)
 Prepare a folder of duplicate running record forms for texts to be used for assessment.
 Obtain a class list for Year 2 with current NC/ Book Band levels from the teacher. (See Resource 4: Year 2 Tracking sheet.)
 Find a quiet place to administer the assessments close to the classroom.
 Arrange for teacher and Literacy Coordinator to observe for at least 30 minutes during the assessments.


Assessing the children


 Use the standard procedures and a standardised recording sheet for administering the running records.

It is important to explain to the children that you will not be prompting or praising during the assessment. You need to remain objective!

 Introduce the book by saying 'This book is called…It is about…the names of the people in it are…' The content of the story should not be discussed in any more detail.
 When the child has finished reading the text (150-200 words is sufficient) ask 3-4 questions to find out how well he/she has understood what they have read. Make sure you include recall and inference in your questions.
 Calculate the child’s accuracy level and self-correction rate. If the accuracy level is between 90% and 94%, and the child shows understanding of the text, their instructional level for guided reading has been identified. If the accuracy rate is above 94%, repeat the procedure with a text at the next level up. If below 90% use a text at the level below.
 Analyse and summarise the child’s reading behaviour on the running record. Note strategies they are using and recommendations for teaching. (Which searchlights are used/neglected?) Include a note about ability to answer literal and inferential questions too. (Use Resources 6,8 and 10.)
 If children’s phonic knowledge is an issue in their reading make a note to follow this up with the class teacher.


Identify the target group.




 Choose a group of six children who will be the target group for the class teacher to focus on and move to level 2 (or 2b) before KS1 tests. Children reading at Orange, Turquoise or Purple would be suitable.
 Decide on an additional group of up to six children to target. You will plan your demonstration guided reading lesson for this group.

(Deciding the target group should be done with the class teacher if possible)




Additional notes
 Time taken for assessments will vary. You may need to administer more than one assessment to gain a precise reading level for some children.

 You will need to assess enough children to identify a target group to plan for with the teacher and an additional group slightly above or below the target group to gain data on which to base your demonstration lesson, i.e. precise reading level and strategies to focus on.
Class teacher(s) to observe for part of the time if possible.
Allow at least two hours for the assessments. The time will vary according to the accuracy of the levels you receive from the class teacher and the numbers of children to be assessed. If need be, you could identify just the one group, teach a demonstration lesson using them and plan another lesson with the teacher to be used for the observation.


Resources
Resource 5: Using Running Records
Resource 4: Year 2 tracking sheet

Additional guidance on running records in the additional resources section

 The PM Benchmark Kit (Nelson Thorne) is a very useful resource to ensure consistent and accurate levelling of children. This kit contains 30 texts ranging from below NC level 1 up to level 3. In addition there are also guidelines about administering and interpreting running records, prepared running records, assessment pro formas and comprehension questions which reduce preparation time considerably. This is also a resource, which can be purchased and used by schools very effectively from Reception to Year 2, and for specific target groups in KS2 whose progress and attainment level in reading are causing concern.

 You will need to have a Book Bands for Guided Reading as a resource to support the choice of books for the target group.

Ukays - Zikir Kasih





Oh Allah, I'm so afraid to read.






How many words she's read before, she's consumed two thousand books or more.
Musty pulp and glue soundproof her tiny room.
She cannot understand why this book in her hand
fascinates her now so much that she's almost shy to touch.
"Don't think about the words it's just a book - paper and ink"
She reaffirms, remind herself, "a book can't dictate what to think."
It invites, intrigues her more than others on her shelf
"Is it just another book?" - she sits questioning herself.

Oh Allah, she's so afraid to read,
the wisdom that's revealed may burrow in her mind
She'll be obliged to admit,
She'll be obliged to submit
But will she be strong enough to live the truth she finds?
Oh Allah, she's so afraid to read.

The hall light is always on every night that he is gone.
He hears his mother toss in bed when he slips in at dawn.
In the book case by the stair, he can see it sitting there
like a waiting watchful wise-man scolding him with care.
In the morning will they fight about him being out all night?
Will he resent their gift of love and not admit that they are right?
All he wants is to fit in some place, but must he compromise his faith?
He can't look himself or his parents in the face.
He takes the book upstairs unread and sets it closed next to his head
then counts the prayers he's missed and lays so hopelessly in bed.

Oh Allah, he's so afraid to read,
the wisdom that's revealed may burrow in his mind
He'll be obliged to admit,
He'll be obliged to submit
But will he be strong enough to live the truth he finds?
Oh Allah, he's so afraid to read.

I sent an email to my loved one, just the other day
It's sad communication has evolved this way.
We use so many words but have so little to relay
as angels scribble down every letter that we say.
All the viral attachments sent and passionate insults we vent
It's easy to be arrogant behind user passwords we invent.
But on the day the scrolls are laid, with every word and deed displayed,
when we read our accounts, I know, for one, I'll be afraid.

That day I'll be so afraid to read,
every harsh word that I've spoken - and every time I have lied.
I'll be obliged to admit,
I'll be obliged to submit
Will I have strength owning up to each deed I've tried to hide?
Oh Allah, I'm so afraid to read.

A Story Worth Reading

A Story Worth Reading




===


Since last night my young son has been unwell. When I got back from Work this evening I decided to take him to hospital despite my exhaustion.

There were many waiting; perhaps we will be delayed by more than an hour. I took my number and sat down in the waiting room. There were many faces, young and old, but all silent. Some brothers made use of the many booklets available in the waiting room.







Some of those waiting had their eyes closed, while others were looking around. Most were bored. Once in a while the long silence was broken by a nurse calling out a number. Happiness appears on the one whose turn it is, and he gets up quickly; then silence returns.

A young man grabbed my attention. He was reading a pocket-sized Qur`an continuously; not raising his head even once. At first I did not think much about him. However, after one hour of waiting my casual glances turned into a deep reflection about his lifestyle and how he utilizes his time. One hour of life wasted! Instead of making benefit of that hour, it was just a boring wait. Then the call for prayer was made. We went to prayer in the hospital's Masjid. I tried to pray close to the man who was reading the Qur'an earlier in the waiting room.







After the prayer I walked with him. I informed him of how impressed I was of him and how he tries to benefit from his time. He told me that most of our time is wasted without any benefit. These are days that go from our lives without being conscious of them or regretting their waste. He said that he started carrying the pocket-sized Qur`an around when a friend encouraged him to make full use of his time. He told me that in the time other people waste he gets to read much more of the Qur`an than he gets to read either at home or in the masjid. Moreover, besides the reward of reading the Qur`an, this habit saves him from boredom and stress.





He added that he has now been waiting for one and a half hours. Then he asked, when will you find one and a half hours to read the Qur`an? I reflected; How much time do we waste? How many moments of our lives pass by, and yet we do not account for how they passed by? Indeed, how many months pass by and we do not read the Qur`an? I came to respect my companion, and I discovered that I am to stand for account and that time is not in my hand; so what am I waiting for?









My thoughts were interrupted by the nurse calling out my number; I went to the doctor. But I want to achieve something now. After I left the hospital I quickly went to the bookshop and bought a pocket-sized Qur`an. I decided to be mindful of how I spend the time.
If this information is beneficial to you, then please do forward it to your friends and relatives.

The blue sky is blue but it prays to Allah







Lyrics: The blue sky is blue like blue bubble gum,
but it prays to Allah, it prays to Allah,
and like the flavour of the blue sky and the bubble gum wont last,
so weve got to thank Allah before our chances go past.

I dont wanna be a grown-up like the grown-ups I have seen,
`cause the grown-ups I have seen dont seem to have much fun.
They dont get down on the floor enough to pray or play with toys,
when Im a grown-up, I wont want to be one

Now, if I lived back at the time of the Prophet
I know that he would be different, I just know hed find the time and
I would make him something, special like some paper planes or something,
I could race those planes with him or get a camel back ride.

The blue sky is blue like blue bubble gum
but it prays to Allah, it prays to Allah,
and like the flavour of the blue sky and the bubble gum wont last,
so weve got to thank Allah before our chances go past.

Id like to write a promise, I want you to make it too,
that if I misbehave a little, like I sometimes do,
you wont get really mad and youll be patient like the prophet.
I really love my promise. How about you?

The blue sky is blue like blue bubble gum
but it prays to Allah, it prays to Allah
and like the flavour of the blue sky and the bubble gum wont last,
so weve got to thank Allah before our chances go past.

To be a Mommy or a Daddy must be really, really hard,
so lets take a break together, cause I know how much you try.
Lets have a dish of applesauce, then tumble in the yard
and we can pray and we can play along with the blue sky.

The blue sky is blue like blue bubble gum
but it prays to Allah, it prays to Allah
and like the flavour of the blue sky and the bubble gum wont last,
so weve got to thank Allah before our chances go past.

Fear of Allah's Anger

enggan berdoa?

...






Kita lihat pada ayat di bawah bahawa Allah s.w.t. sangat tidak menyukai manusia yang enggan berdoa kepadaNya dan bahkan Dia (Allah s.w.t.) sangat marah kepada mereka kerana disifatkan sebagai menyalahi perintahNya yang akan membawa turunnya azab ke atas manusia.













Dan tuhan kamu berfirman:"Berdoalah kepadaKu, nescaya akan Aku perkenankan bagi kamu. Sesungguhnya orang-orang yang meyombongkan diri dari menyembahKu, akan masuk neraka Jahannam dalam keadaan hina." -(Surah al-Mukmin :Ayat 60)

surah al mukmin ayat 60



Pada ayat di atas selain Allah s.w.t. sememangnya memerintahkan agar manusia sentiasa berdoa kepadaNya dalam apa jua keadaan, maka ianya juga mencela ke atas orang-orang yang enggan meminta dan berdoa kepadaNya dengan menyifatkan mereka sebagai orang-orang yang sombong. Adalah sangat tepat jika ayat di atas juga dijadikan iktibar sekranya manusia ini menyedari segala kelemahan dan kekurangan dirinya. Seterusnya dijadikan sebagai galakan agar lebih rajin berdoa dan memohon sesuatu kepada Allah s.w.t.

doa dan bukan kebetulan or mujur

Tough world it is. But nothing can stop you when determination is there.

sifat rahmat Allah,

minta apa ia bagi.

dia lebih mengetahui.

kita hamba, Allah raja. ikut Allah apa yang Allah nak bagi.

yang penting, kita minta. dan bukan mujur atau kebetulan.

doa bila bila masa dan bukan setakat lepas solat aje.

berdoa :




"ya Allah kamu ampunilah kami,

kerahmatan mu ya Allah, taufik hidayahmu,


permudahkanlah kehidupan kami.

berikanlah rezeki,

jika di langit, kau turunkanlah,


permudahkanlah pengajian kami.

permudahkanlah penyelidikan kami.


masukkanlah ke dalam syurgamu ya Allah.

yang paling istimewa, ya Allah.

yang paling istimewa, ya Allah.

yang paling istimewa, ya Allah.




JANGANLAH KERANA KELAMBATAN MASA PEMBERIAN TUHAN KEPADA KAMU, PADAHAL KAMU TELAH BERSUNGGUH-SUNGGUH BERDOA, MEMBUAT KAMU BERPUTUS ASA, SEBAB ALLAH MENJAMIN UNTUK MENERIMA SEMUA DOA, MENURUT APA YANG DIPILIH-NYA UNTUK KAMU, TIDAK MENURUT KEHENDAK KAMU, DAN PADA WAKTU YANG DITENTUKAN-NYA, TIDAK PADA WAKTU YANG KAMU TENTUKAN.
Apabila kita berkehendak mendapatkan sesuatu sama ada duniawi mahupun ukhrawi maka kita akan berusaha bersungguh-sungguh untuk mendapatkannya. Jika usaha kita tidak mampu memperolehinya kita akan meminta pertolongan daripada orang yang mempunyai kuasa. Jika mereka juga tidak mampu membantu kita untuk mencapai hajat kita maka kita akan memohon pertolongan daripada Allah s.w.t, menadah tangan ke langit sambil air mata bercucuran dan suara yang merayu-rayu menyatakan hajat kepada-Nya. Selagi hajat kita belum tercapai selagi itulah kita bermohon dengan sepenuh hati. Tidak ada kesukaran bagi Allah s.w.t untuk memenuhi hajat kita. Sekiranya Dia mengurniakan kepada kita semua khazanah yang ada di dalam bumi dan langit maka pemberian-Nya itu tidak sedikit pun mengurangi kekayaan-Nya. Andainya Allah s.w.t menahan dari memberi maka tindakan demikian tidak sedikit pun menambahkan kekayaan dan kemuliaan-Nya. Jadi, dalam soal memberi atau menahan tidak sedikit pun memberi kesan kepada ketuhanan Allah s.w.t. Ketuhanan-Nya adalah mutlak tidak sedikit pun terikat dengan kehendak, doa dan amalan hamba-hamba-Nya.


Dan Allah berkuasa melakukan apa yang di kehendaki-Nya. ( Ayat 27 : Surah Ibrahim )

Semuanya itu tunduk di bawah kekuasaan-Nya. ( Ayat 116 : Surah al-Baqarah )

Ia tidak boleh ditanya tentang apa yang Ia lakukan, sedang merekalah yang akan ditanya kelak. ( Ayat 23 : Surah al-Anbiyaa’ )
Sebahagian besar daripada kita tidak sedar bahawa kita mensyirikkan Allah s.w.t dengan doa dan amalan kita. Kita jadikan doa dan amalan sebagai kuasa penentu atau setidak-tidaknya kita menganggapnya sebagai mempunyai kuasa tawar menawar dengan Tuhan, seolah-olah kita berkata, “Wahai Tuhan! Aku sudah membuat tuntutan maka Engkau wajib memenuhinya. Aku sudah beramal maka Engkau wajib membayar upahnya!” Siapakah yang berkedudukan sebagai Tuhan, kita atau Allah s.w.t? Sekiranya kita tahu bahawa diri kita ini adalah hamba maka berlagaklah sebagai hamba dan jagalah sopan santun terhadap Tuan kepada sekalian hamba-hamba. Hak hamba ialah rela dengan apa juga keputusan dan pemberian Tuannya.

Doa adalah penyerahan bukan tuntutan. Kita telah berusaha tetapi gagal. Kita telah meminta pertolongan makhluk tetapi itu juga gagal. Apa lagi pilihan yang masih ada kecuali menyerahkan segala urusan kepada Tuhan yang di Tangan-Nya terletak segala perkara. Serahkan kepada Allah s.w.t dan tanyalah kepada diri sendiri mengapa Tuhan menahan kita dari memperolehi apa yang kita hajatkan? Apakah tidak mungkin apa yang kita inginkan itu boleh mendatangkan mudarat kepada diri kita sendiri, hingga lantaran itu Allah s.w.t Yang Maha Penyayang menahannya daripada sampai kepada kita? Bukankah Dia Tuhan Yang Maha Pemurah, Maha Penyayang lagi Maha Mengetahui.


Tidakkah Allah yang menciptakan sekalian makhluk itu mengetahui (segala-galanya)? Sedang Ia Maha Halus urusan Tadbiran-Nya, lagi Maha Mendalam Pengetahuan-Nya. ( Ayat 14 : Surah al-Mulk )

Dialah yang mengetahui segala yang ghaib dan yang nyata, (dan Dialah jua) yang Maha Kuasa, lagi Maha Bijaksana. ( Ayat 18 : Surah at-Taghaabun )

Apa sahaja ayat keterangan yang Kami mansuhkan (batalkan), atau yang Kami tinggalkan (atau tangguhkan), Kami datangkan ganti yang lebih baik daripadanya, atau yang sebanding dengannya. Tidakkah engkau mengetahui bahawasanya Allah Maha Kuasa atas tiap-tiap sesuatu? ( Ayat 106 : Surah al-Baqarah )
Allah s.w.t Maha Halus (Maha Terperinci/Detail), Maha Mengerti dan Maha Mengetahui yang ghaib dan yang nyata. Allah s.w.t yang bersifat demikian menentukan buat diri-Nya yang apa sahaja yang Dia mansuhkan digantikannya dengan yang lebih baik atau yang sama baik. Dia boleh berbuat demikian kerana Dia tidak bersekutu dengan sesiapa pun dan Dia Maha Berkuasa.
Seseorang hamba sentiasa berhajat kepada pertolongan Tuhan. Apa yang dihajatinya disampaikannya kepada Tuhan. Semakin banyak hajatnya semakin banyak pula doa yang disampaikannya kepada Tuhan. Kadang-kadang berlaku satu permintaan berlawanan dengan permintaan yang lain atau satu permintaan itu menghalang permintaan yang lain. Manusia hanya melihat kepada satu doa tetapi Allah s.w.t menerima kedatangan semua doa dari satu orang manusia itu. Manusia yang dikuasai oleh kalbu jiwanya berbalik-balik dan keinginan serta hajatnya tidak menetap. Tuhan yang menguasai segala perkara tidak berubah-ubah. Manusia yang telah meminta satu kebaikan boleh meminta pula sesuatu yang tidak baik atau kurang baik. Tuhan yang menentukan yang terbaik untuk hamba-Nya tidak berubah kehendak-Nya. Dia telah menetapkan buat Diri-Nya:


Bertanyalah (wahai Muhammad): “Hak milik siapakah segala yang ada di langit dan di bumi?” Katakanlah: “(Semuanya itu) adalah milik Allah! Ia telah menetapkan atas diri-Nya memberi rahmat.” (Ayat 12 : Surah al-An’aam )
Orang yang beriman selalu mendoakan:
“Wahai Tuhan kami, berilah kami kebaikan di dunia dan kebaikan di akhirat, dan peliharalah kami dari azab neraka”. ( Ayat 201 : Surah al-Baqarah )

Hamba yang mendapat rahmat dari Allah s.w.t diterima doa di atas dan doa tersebut menjadi induk kepada segala doa-doanya. Doa yang telah diterima oleh Allah s.w.t menapis doa-doa yang lain. Jika kemudiannya si hamba meminta sesuatu yang mendatangkan kebaikan hanya kepada penghidupan dunia sahaja, tidak untuk akhirat dan tidak menyelamatkannya dari api neraka, maka doa induk itu menahan doa yang datang kemudian. Hamba itu dipelihara daripada didatangi oleh sesuatu yang menggerakkannya ke arah yang ditunjukkan oleh doa induk itu. Jika permintaannya sesuai dengan doa induk itu dia dipermudahkan mendapat apa yang dimintanya itu.

Oleh sebab itu doa adalah penyerahan kepada Yang Maha Penyayang dan Maha Mengetahui. Menghadaplah kepada-Nya dan berserah diri kepada-Nya serta ucapkan, “Wahai Tuhanku Yang Maha Lemah-lembut, Maha Mengasihani, Maha Mengetahui, Maha Bijaksana! Daku adalah hamba yang bersifat tergopoh gapah, lemah dan jahil. Daku mempunyai hajat tetapi daku tidak mengetahui kesannya bagiku, sedangkan Engkau Maha Mengetahui. Sekiranya hajatku ini baik kesannya bagi dunia dan akhiratku dan melindungiku dari api neraka maka kurniakan ia kepadaku pada saat yang baik bagiku menerimanya. Jika kesudahannya buruk bagi dunia dan akhiratku dan mendorongku ke neraka, maka jauhkan ia daripadaku dan cabutkanlah keinginanku terhadapnya. Sesungguhnya Engkaulah Tuhanku Yang Maha Mengerti dan Maha Berdiri Dengan Sendiri”.


Dan Tuhanmu menciptakan apa yang dirancangkan berlakunya, dan Dialah juga yang memilih (satu-satu dari makhluk-Nya untuk sesuatu tugas atau keutamaan dan kemuliaan); tidaklah layak dan tidaklah berhak bagi sesiapapun memilih (selain dari pilihan Allah). Maha Suci Allah dan Maha Tinggilah keadaan-Nya dari apa yang mereka sekutukan dengan-Nya. { Ayat 68 : Surah al-Qasas }

fear of Allah

Begitulah sepatutnya tarbiyah seorang muslim dimulai, dengan rasa takut kepada azab dan menghadirkan rasa takut ini setiap kali membaca al Quran. Allah Taala menjadi hati yang gementar sebagai sifat keimanan.

Allah berfirman yang bermaksud:

“Sesungguhnya orang orang yang beriman itu adalah mereka yang apabila disebut nama Allah gementarlah hati mereka dan apabila dibacakan kepada mereka ayat ayat Nya bertambahlah iman mereka kerana kepada Allahlah mereka bertawakkal” (al Anfal:2)

Sehingga sesudah itu kulit menjadi gementar, sebagaimana firman Allah yang bermaksud;

“Allah telah menurunkan perkataan yang paling baik iaitu al Quran yang serupa (mutu ayat ayat Nya) lagi berulang ulang, gementar kerananya kulit orang orang yang takut kepada Tuhannya” (az Zumar:23)

Kemudian air mata pun bercucuran, Allah berfirman yang bermaksud:

“Apabila dibacakan ayat ayat Allah Yang Maha Pemurah kepada mereka, maka mereka menyungkur dengan bersujud dan menangis” (Maryam:58)

“dan apabila mereka mendengarkan apa yang diturunkan kepada Rasul(Muhammad) kamu melihat mata mereka mencucurkan air mata disebabkan kebenaran al Quran yang telah mereka ketahui(dari kitab kitab mereka sendiri) (al Maidah:83)

Air mata bercucuran ketika salah seorang di antara mereka mencerca dirinya sendiri dan memotivasinya;

Celaka kau, wahai diri

Mengunjungi orang yang ikhlas

Taatlah, ikhlaslah

Dengarkan dan camkan nasihat

Petik pengajaran

Dari yang telah pergi

Takutlah qadha yang datang tiba tiba

Dan waspadalah agar tidak terpadaya

Ia sentiasa takut sampai rasa takut itu dihentikan oleh rasa harap, dan ia mengingat bahawa rahmat Allah itu lebih besar dari murka Nya, sehingga keadaan rohani menjadi seimbang sebagaimana sabda Nabi SAW yang bermaksud;

“Sekiranya seorang kafir tahu semua rahmat yang ada di sisi Allah, tentulah ia tidak putus harapan kepada syurga, dan sekiranya seorang mukmin itu tahu semua azab yang yang ada di sisi Allah, tentulah ia tidak merasa aman dari neraka” [Sahih Bukhari]

Ia mula mengharapkan kebaikan untuk dirinya apabila melihat nikmat Allah yang diberikan kepadanya dalam Islam, dan bahawa kedudukkannya lebih baik daripada orang kafir dan lebih layak untuk tidak putus asa. Lantas ia menyedari kekurangan imannya, sehingga ia tetap tidak memastikan dirinya aman.

b. Merasai kemanisan iman

Seperti mana sabda Rasulullah SAW yang bermaksud;

“Ada tiga sifat, barangsiapa memiliki sifat sifat ini, maka ia mendapat kemanisan iman; orang yang Allah dan Rasul Nya lebih dicintainya selain dari keduanya, orang yang mencintai seseorang hamba kerana Allah dan orang yang benci kembali kepada kekufuran setelah Allah menyelamatkannya seperti ia tidak suka dicampakkan kedalam api” [Sahih Bukhari]

Cints kepada Allah merupakan sumber pertama kenikmatan ini, dan ia merupakan dasar iman yang berulangkali disebut dalam al Quran. Sepertimana Allah Taala berfirman yang bermaksud;

“Adapun orang orang yang beriman sangat cinta kepada Allah” (al Baqarah:165)

Apabila cinta ini berasal dari hamba, maka Allah mengurniakan balasan cinta kepada mereka, seperti firman Allah Taala yang bermaksud:

“kerana sesungguhnya Allah mencintai orang orang yang berbuat baik” (al Baqarah:195)

Kerana itu Allah Taala menggabungkan cinta dua arah ini, lalu Allah berfirman yang bermaksud:

“Allah mencintai mereka dan mereka pun mencintaiNya” (al Maidah:54)

Cinta kepada Nabi SAW adalah penyempurna cinta kepada Allah Taala, dan tidak beriman seseorang yang bersaksikan Muhammad SAW adalah pesuruh Allah dan tidak mencintai Rasulullah SAW, sepertimana Nabi SAW bersabda yang bermaksud;

“Demi Allah yang jiwaku ada di dalam gengamanNya, sesiapa diantara kalian tidak beriman, sebelum aku lebih dicintainya dari bapannya, anaknya dan semua manusia”

[Sahih Bukhari]

Cinta kepada Nabi SAW akan berkembang jika kita sentiasa mempelajari keutamaan keutamaan Nabi SAW dan mencontohi akhlak beliau, juga akan bertambah dengan kitab kitab hadis dan sirah baginda SAW, itulah tarbiyah yang kita kehendaki.

c. Satu matlamat dan tujuan yang tinggi

Satu matlamat dan tujuan yang tinggi, kerana hanya ada satu pilihan, dan kadang kadang jiwa cenderung kepada pilihan pilihan yang rendah mengatasi matlamat dan tujuan yang tinggi. Namun penggabungan dua tujuan tersebut, merupakan sesuatu yang mustahil. Seorang penyair telah menutup jalan pertemuan keduanya ketika menjelaskan kepada kita dalam syainya:

Hawa nafsu dunia dan matlamat dan tujuan tertinggi,

Tidak ada titik pertemuan dalam jiwa

Itulah hakikat yang menyeru mereka untuk memurnikan perjalanan dan memurnikan keikhlasan dalam jiwa para daie. Begitu juga menyeru mereka supaya menyaring setiap keadaan… agar dedikasi ini terus berkembang dan membesar dalam diri mereka sehingga sampai ke tahap tabattul (mencurah segenap tenaga) untuk melaksanakan amal dakwah Islam yang dibekati ini

“Seperti …mereka berasal dari awan yang mengandungi air dan angin bagi orang lain, serta mengandungi kesucian, ketinggian dan keindahan bagi diri mereka sendiri. Mereka memberi keyakinan kepada orang orang yang lemah bahawa apa yang tidak mungkin mampu dikerjakan, kerana manusia hanya melihat keikhlasan dalam watak peribadi mereka, sekalipun ia hidup serba kekurangan dan memiliki muru’ah (kehormatan) sekali pun amat berat”

Sesungguhnya hakikat jalan dakwah ini satu yang tidak mampu …disekutukan. Petanda daie yang ikhlas kerana Allah dan menolong agama Nya dengan jujur adalah kegembiraannya hanya kepada Allah Taala, sedangkan yang menjadi dominan dalam hatinya adalah manisnya rasa taat, kerana hati tidak terlepas dari manisnya rasa cinta; sama ada cinta kepada dunia atau cinta kepada akhirat. Kedudukkan keduanya di dalam hati ibarat seperti udara dan air dalam gelas. Jika air masuk, maka udara keluar, kerana keduanya tidak mungkin bertemu. Sesiapa yang bergembira kepada Allah, maka ia akan sibuk dengan Nya dan tidak sibuk dengan yang lain dariNya. Seorang telah bertanya ulama’: “Ke mana zuhud membawa mereka?” Lalu dia menjawab: “Kepada gembira dengan Allah. Adapun suka kepada dunia dan Allah, kerana keduanya tidak boleh berganding”

Komunikasilah pada Allah SWT

Iman itu kesedaran. Cinta itu menguatkan kesedaran. Komunikasi itu melahirkan cinta. Untuk mengekalkan dan menguatkan iman, kita perlu ada rasa cinta pada Allah SWT di mana kita perlu banyak berkomunikasi dengan Allah SWT agar sentiasa ingat Allah SWT di dalam setiap nafas kita.

Komunikasilah pada Allah SWT apa yang kita fikirkan, lakukan, dengarkan, lihatkan dan katakan setiap saat kehidupan kita ini.

kesenangan dan kemewahan adalah sebenarnya ujian

Bagi orang yang beriman, hidup di dunia adalah jambatan dan ujian untuk hidup abadi diakhirat. Tempat destinasi di sana hanya ada dua pilihan. Ia menjadi kesinambungan dengan bagaimana hidup kita di sini.Jika kita hadapi dengan redha dan sentiasa bergantung kepada Allah, InsyaAllah dengan rahmatNya kita selamat. Tidak diberi kesusahan atau masalah malah diselimuti kesenangan dan kemewahan adalah sebenarnya ujian. Jika dengan dengan kesenangan kita lupa padaNya bererti kita juga gagal dalam menempuh ujian ynag diberikanNya.






semoga dteguhkanlah dalam hati kt keyakinan..
keyakinan seperti..

keyakinan Nabi Musa semasa tersungkur di Bukit Tursina..

keyakinan Nabi Ibrahim semasa menyaksikan burung yang dicincang, bersatu dan terbang semula..

keyakinan Nabi Muhammad semasa tersungkur menggigil menyebut iqra’ di Gua HIra’..

keyakinan bahawa..
TIADA TUHAN YANG AKU SEMBAH MELAINKAN ALLAH

Hidup ini memang susah

doa : Sesungguhnya saya sangat-sangat memerlukan Allah SWT. Sangat-sangat. Teramat sangat.

“ya Allah, ampuni dosa kami ya Allah. Ampuni dosa ibu bapa kami ya Allah. Ampuni dosa keluarga kami ya Allah.

Ya Allah, rahmatikan kami semua ya Allah.

Ya Allah, cukupkanlah keperluan kami ya Allah. Cukupkanlah keperluan anak-anak kami ya Allah.

Ya Allah ajarkan kami cara bagaimana mahu beribadah kepadaMu ya Allah.

Ya Allah ajarkan kami bagaimana untuk sentiasa mengingatiMu ya Allah.

Ya Allah berikan rasa cinta kepadaMu dalam jiwa kami ya Allah.

Ya allah ajarkan kami bagaimana mahu menyelesaikan masalah-masalah kami ya Allah.

Surah Ar-Rad Ayat 28

firmankan Allah SWT dalam Surah Ar-Rad Ayat 28 bahawa “Hanya dengan mengingati Allah SWT, hati menjadi tenang.”




Bila hati tenang, pasti fikiran dan emosi juga tenang.



:)







Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth.










Surah Al-Noor. This is the beautify of the light of Allah!

mendidik anak-anak kita agar pergantungan mereka mesti kepada Allah SWT 100%.

mendidik anak-anak kita agar pergantungan mereka mesti kepada Allah SWT 100%.


“Ya Allah, Tuhan yang Maha Mengasihani. Kami memohon kepadaMu ya Allah agar Engkau alirkanlah sentiasa kasih sayang kami kepada anak-anak kami dan kuatkanlah jiwa mereka dengan kasih sayang kami ini ya Allah.

Ya Allah, ajarilah kami bagaimana cara yang terbaik untuk mendidik anak-anak kami ya Allah. Ya Allah berikanlah rasa cinta kepadaMu dalam jiwa kami dan anak-anak kami ya Allah. Terima kasih Allah, terima kasih. Amin”

Nabi Muhammad SAW meminta kita untuk mendidik anak-anak kita agar mendirikan solat seusia 7 tahun dan rotan jika tidak mendirikan solat semasa umur 10 tahun ke atas. Persoalan yang tidak pernah kita teliti adalah mengapa sukarnya meminta anak-anak kita mendirikan solat?

Kita tidak pernah muhasabah diri kita, apakah kita telah membangunkan jiwa anak-anak kita sejak mereka kecil? Apakah pernah kita mendidik anak-anak kita agar pergantungan mereka mesti kepada Allah SWT 100%. Pernahkan kita menguatkan jiwa mereka agar cintakan Allah SWT dan Rasul SAW?

Allah SWT mewajibkan solat ketika berlakukan Isra’ dan Mikraj. Peristiwa besar ini berlaku di sekitar tahun ke 10 selepas Nabi Muhammad SAW menerima wahyu yang pertama. 10 tahun ini adalah masa yang diperlukan untuk membangunkan jiwa umat islam ketika itu untuk benar-benar memiliki jiwa yang mantap.

Kerana itu 10 tahun adalah masa yang cukup jika kita benar-benar mendidik jiwa anak-anak kita untuk memiliki kesedaran yang tertinggi. Maka apabila di ketika mereka memiliki kesedaran tertinggi kepada Allah SWT, apakah sukar untuk mereka mendirikan solat?

Apakah sukar untuk mereka mendengar kata-kata ibu bapa mereka? Apakah mereka akan menjadi anak-anak yang malas?

Pasti tidak kerana jiwa mereka kuat. Jiwa yang kuat, tenang, mantap, semangat, positif dan sebagainya akan mempengaruhi fikiran untuk menjadi tenang, positif dan sebagainya.

Cameron: Teaching should be elitist

i like this article.


i could not agree less but more....


=======


David Cameron has set out plans to attract the brightest graduates into teaching, with an offer to pay off student loans and provide bonuses for those who perform best in the classroom.


source




Launching the Tories' draft education manifesto in south London, Mr Cameron said he wanted to take a "brazenly elitist" approach to improving teaching standards, by barring the profession to anyone who does not have a 2.2 degree or better and making it into "the noble profession".

He also announced plans for a Teach Now programme to allow people to transfer from professions such as banking and the law into teaching, saying "only the best professionals with the best qualifications need apply".

Mr Cameron said he would make it easier for headteachers to pay more to teachers who work longer hours and produce results in the classroom - and to fire those who perform badly.

And he also promised tougher discipline, with teachers given powers to search pupils, confiscate items and remove disruptive children. Schools will be given the final say over expulsions and teachers will be protected against false allegations of abuse, he said.

Mr Cameron said a Tory government would "renew the promise of a good education for all in our country".

He said: "The straightforward truth is that there aren't enough good schools in our country, and we're failing far too many of our children.

"Four in ten children leave primary school unable to read, write and add up properly. Half of pupils do not get five good GCSEs including English and maths. And we're slipping down the world league tables in maths and science.

"We can't go on like this. If we carry on excusing this kind of failure, we face a future where our most stubborn social problems get worse, not better, and where our economy gets left behind, as countries out-educate and out-compete us. So nothing else will do - we need big change in the way we do education in our country."

He said the key to boosting educational performance was improving the standards of teaching. "When a child steps through those school gates for the very first time, the most important thing that will determine if they succeed is not their background, or the curricula, or the type of school, or the amount of funding, it's who the teacher is," he said.

it seems all too hard!’

So in a nutshell: Write it down, break it down, ask yourself ‘What’s next?’ and then do it.

low GI diet?

It’s all to do with carbs and your blood sugar levels but it’s got nothing to do with fad diets such as the Atkins. The GI (glycemic index) is a physiologically based measure of the effect of carbohydrates on blood glucose levels.

Jennie Brand Miller (Professor of Human Nutrition at the University of Sydney) describes the low GI diet as follows:

“[The low GI diet is] a carbohydrate controlled diet because it is based on choosing low GI carbs that are slowly digested and absorbed, producing only gentle rises in your blood glucose and insulin levels”.

Carbs that break down rapidly during digestion, releasing glucose quickly into your blood have high GI values and carbs that break down slowly have low GI values.

So you may be thinking ‘Ok, great, but so what? What does all this mean for me and my body?’.

The benefits of a low GI diet

exercise helps to activate areas of the brain

exercise helps to activate areas of the brain



There is something quite amazing about moving your body that allows you to think more clearly and work more effectively.

Scientific studies have recently found that a number of benefits are associated with engaging in strenuous exercise. According to Dr John Ratey (Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and author of Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain) exercise helps to activate areas of the brain such that people are sharper, more attentive and less impulsive. In addition, exercise can lead to increased intelligence and lower stress levels.

Dr Ratey also stresses that by engaging in exercise you are helping to grow new brains cells, specifically in the areas of the brain associated with learning and memory (the hippocampus).

So what sort of exercise is best for your brain and will help you to learn more effectively?

Students frequently ask me “Is a 30 minute walk OK? Is that all I need to do?” A 30 minute walk will certainly help you to relax and unwind after a long day but there are much better forms of exercise that you can engage in to benefit your brain.

Dr Ratey suggests that aerobic exercise such as running, cycling and circuit training are all great ways to benefit your brain. He also suggest that by doing interval training (i.e. alternating six 30 second sprints with 60 seconds of jogging in between) two times a week can help to increase your learning ability by up to 20%!

“The more we challenge our bodies and brains, the stronger both become” he states.

‘The Boys from Baghdad High’

again on how to get motivated.....




‘The Boys from Baghdad High’

an eye opening documentary on SBS called ‘The Boys from Baghdad High’ (Produced/Directed: Ivan O’Mahoney and Laura Winter). Watching this beautifully made documentary put everything into perspective.

If you thought studying was hard here (in safe Western Australia) then perhaps studying in Iraq for even a day would do us all some good.

These young men were typical generation Yers. They were just like my Australian male friends. They liked listening to pop music, had mobile phones, surfed the internet, had girlfirends, joked around with each other, had dreams and hopes for the future, etc. The difference was they were forced to study with power cuts, to the sound of bombings and guns firing shots outside their homes, knowing their classmates/friends had been murdered and kidnapped and that they could be next. Most of their free time was spent at home as it was just too dangerous to go outside.

I can’t even begin to imagine how stressful that would be and the effect that kind of stress would have on studying for final year exams.

It was no surprise that school attendance and motivation/inspiration to study was low at the school the boys attended in Baghdad. It was also no surprise that they failed several of their final exams. But amazingly, given all the stress and trauma they experienced, most of the boys got through and graduated in the end.

This documentary was inspiring to say the least. I’ve been complaining about my honours thesis, but after seeing what these young men went though it just seems ridiculous to complain anymore.

If in need of inspiration or a new perspective on your life as a student, I recommend watching ‘The Boys from Baghdad High’. You will be deeply moved.

‘How to Mind Map’:


Ideally this is how you want your mind maps to be. Tony Buzan states in his book ‘How to Mind Map’:


“Use one key word per line. Why? Because single key words give your mind map more power and flexibility. Each single word or image is like a multiplier, generating its own special array of associations and connections…Phrases or sentences dampen this triggering effect.”


example

Laughter is the best medicine

Try to laugh and feel stressed at the same time. Can you do it? I bet $100 that you can’t. There is so much truth to the saying ‘Laughter is the best medicine’. 10 years ago Dr Kataria (inventor of laughter yoga) noticed that his patients who laughed more regularly appeared to have better immune systems, heal faster and appeared to be calmer than patients who did not laugh as much. The reason for this is that laughter releases endorphins, which is a chemical that gives you a natural high. So if you’re feeling stressed out, catch up with a friend who makes you laugh or watch a comedy show. If you can’t do that, force yourself to laugh. Say out loud ‘HA HA HA HA HA’ (I don’t recommend you do this in public) because the brain doesn’t know the difference between a fake laugh and a real one. In a nutshell, you can trick your brain into releasing those feel good, happy chemicals (endorphins).

9 Ways to Motivate Yourself When You Just Don't Feel Like It









by Skye Thomas

Achieving the really big goals and dreams always involves breaking it down into do-able little steps. Assuming that you've picked a goal or dream that you really love working at, then most of the steps are a delight to take. No matter how much you love your dream and no matter how much you love your work, there are going to be tasks along the way that you really don't want to do. Those pieces of work that we hate doing can be the very ones that sabotage our success. How do you stay motivated during those parts of the journey?

1) Reward yourself. Let's say that I want to lose twenty pounds. That's not too much, but it's still going to involve more days of self discipline that I feel like doing. So, I reward myself with a little treat every time I drop five pounds. I get to have one of my favorite fattening meals at the end of each five pound loss. Then I go back to my diet. At the end, I get to go on a shopping spree to buy new clothes. Come up with a reward that you can use to motivate yourself.

2) Do it for love of someone else. My teenage son proposed a deal that works for both of us. I don't smoke cigarettes and he doesn't experiment with drugs. Every time one of us is about to give in to temptation, our love for each other stops us. I can't light up knowing that he might start doing drugs because I broke our deal. He hates the idea of me dying of cancer, so he never touches any kinds of drugs offered to him by his peers. The love of someone else can motivate you to do what you otherwise might not be able to do for yourself.

3) Trade work with someone else. I've watched my kids perfect this style of motivation. My son will offer to scrub out the showers if my daughter will do the dishes for him. Hiring someone to do the work you don't want to do is actually a form of trade. Barter or pay someone else to do it for you, so that you can continue moving forward with your dreams.

4) Truly consider quitting. I'm not telling you to quit, but to really think about it. If you've got a goal or dream that means a lot to you and you've already invested a large part of yourself into making it happen, then what would quitting feel like? Is avoiding the difficult or distasteful task worth giving up on your goals and dreams? The love of your long-term goal can motivate you not to quit.

5) Share the misery. This reminds me of friends in college getting together to study for an upcoming test. Having friends along can make the experience more festive then it would have been if you were doing it alone. Is there a way to team up with a friend so that the work is easier or at least more enjoyable?

6) Just get it over with. One of my all time favorite quotes about getting past your inner blocks was written by Stuart Wilde in his book The Quickening, "Cut the shit and do the thing." Yeah it's a bit rough, but we all know those stoic tough people who simply roll up their sleeves and dive in know matter how much they may hate the task before them. Take on a soldier's mindset and just get to work doing the ugly parts so you can move on to the more rewarding parts of making your dreams a reality.

7) Get training or education. Quite often, we don't like doing something because deep down we don't think we know how or that we are talented enough. So, get the education, do the research, learn the necessary skills, or whatever else it is that you need to do to get ready for taking that next step. Once you've properly trained yourself, then you might even be enthusiastic about taking that next step.

8) Take a running start at it. Think of riding your bike uphill. It doesn't take kids very long to figure out that the best way to get that bicycle to the top of the steep hill is to build up a lot of speed before you even get to the base of the hill. You then let that momentum help to propel you most of the way up. Heck, with enough of a running start you can sometimes make it all the way up without any major struggles. If there is a way to pace yourself and reschedule the not so fun parts of accomplishing your goals until after you've completed a bunch of the cool parts, then do so. The highs of your mini successes will help inspire you to push past the parts that you are avoiding.

9) Figure out a different way to do it. This is the supreme way to avoid doing the task all together. Be creative, be smart, think outside the box. Is there any way to make your dream come true without having to actually do the specific duty that you're wanting to avoid? Sometimes you can find another way. Other times, just knowing that there is definitely no other path to your dreams other than the one before you is enough to motivate you to just buck up and get through it.

What's most important is not how you keep yourself motivated but that you keep the long-term benefits of your goals in mind. If you focus too much on avoiding the uncomfortable parts of accomplishing your goals, then you won't accomplish much. Find a way to keep going and remember that all things come with a price. Pay the price so you can get on with enjoying the dream.

How to Motivate Yourself to Study


==============


Studying can be one of life's most boring and mundane activities. In fact, the very nature of studying goes against the basic human desire to maximize pleasure; studying barely registering on any human pleasure scale. But you can alter your basic urge to resist the rigors of studying by reminding yourself of a few basic, but important, truths!

#

Remind Yourself of Your Purpose - What are your goals in life? Where do you see yourself 5, 10, or even 20 years down the road? The time that you spend studying now will help to make your future dreams and aspirations a reality. Whether you are working towards a degree, a special skill, or some type of personal enrichment, the act of studying is like a bridge between where you are now and where you want to be in the future!
#
Step 2

Realize Knowledge is Power - A well-educated person is a powerful person. Knowledge is priceless. A well-educated, knowledgeable person is a person who is better able to navigate and excel within the world around him/her. Think about how much more knowledge and ability you are gaining each time you sit down to study!
#
Step 3

Dare Yourself to Succeed - Make it a point to dare yourself to surpass any real or imagined barriers that have been standing in your way. Personal achievement and fulfillment are wonderful things; allow yourself to do the things that can only contribute to your personal achievement and fulfillment - like studying!
#
Step 4

Make a Decision - The difference between a mediocre result and an extraordinary result is more often than not related to effort. Do you want to be a mediocre student or person, or do you want to rise high and sail the heights? Forcing yourself to sit down and study, even when you don't feel like it, is a personal achievement in and of itself. Build on that!

Daripada Aisyah r.a. berkata, aku mendengar Rasulullah saw. bersabda, “Tidak akan berlaku hari qiamat sehingga anak seseorang menjadi punca kemarahan (bagi ibu bapanya) dan hujan akan menjadi panas (hujan akan berkurang dan cuaca akan menjadi panas) dan akan bertambah ramai orang yang tercela dan akan berkurangan orang yang baik dan anak-anak menjadi berani melawan orang-orang tua dan orang yang jahat berani melawan orang-orang baik” [H.R Thabrani)

1. Kalau kita tidak melakukan ibadat kerana takut riyak, maka itu juga adalah riyak. Lakukanlah ibadat tersebut dan mohon keampunan Allah. Lawan perasaan tersebut.

2. Jika kita tahu yang di kawasan kita dipenuhi dengan sanak-saudara, sahabat handai dan kaum kerabat yang menyebabkan kita tidak boleh berlaku adil, maka jangan terima tawaran sebagai ketua. Keluarlah daripada kawasan tersebut.

semua kebaikan masa kini dan akan datang

Ya Allah! Aku memohon kepada Engkau semua kebaikan masa kini dan akan datang samada yang aku ketahui atau tidak aku ketahui dan aku berlindung kepada Engkau dari semua kejahatan yang masa kini dan akan datang samada yang aku tahu atau tidak. Amin...

Iqra.... bacalah al Quran

Aisyah r.a meriwayatkan bahawa Rasulullah SAW pernah bersabda: " Seseorang yang ahli di dalam al-Qu'ran akan berada di kalangan para malaikat yang mana mereka itu adalah pencatit- pencatit mulia dan lurus, dan seseorang yang tidak lancar di dalam membaca al-Qu'ran dan terpaksa bertungkus-lumus mempelajarinya akan mendapat ganjaran yang dua kali ganda,"

Keterangan
"Seseorang yang ahli di dalam al-Quran" bermakna seseorang yang cekap menghafal dan juga membacanya. Adalah lebih terpuji jika seseorang itu menguasai makna dan juga kepentingannya."

“Akan berada di kalangan malaikat-malaikat" bermakna seumpama malaikat-malaikat yang memindahkan al-Qu'ran daripada Luh Mahfuz (kitab yang terpelihara di sisi Allah), ia juga menyampaikannya kepada orang lain melalui pembacaannya, dengan ini kedua-duanya mempunyai pekerjaan yang sama, atau ia akan berada bersama-sama dengan malaikat-malaikat di hari pengadilan.

Seseorang yang tidak lancar akan mendapat ganjaran dua kali ganda. Satu untuk pembacaannya dan satu lagi kerana usahanya membaca al-Quran walaupun ia tersekat-sekat beberapa kali. Ini tidaklah bermakna bahawa ganjaran untuknya akan melebihi daripada seseorang yang ahli. Ganjaran untuk orang yang ahli yang dinyatakan adalah begitu tinggi sekali sehingga ia akan berada di kalangan para malaikat yang khusus. Penjelasannya adalah bahawa di dalam usahanya membaca al-Quran di samping segala kesukaran-kesukaran dan pembacaan yang tersekat-sekat akan mendatangkan ganjaran yang berasingan. Dengan demikian, membaca al-Quran sepatutnya janganlah ditinggalkan.

Mulla Ali Qari telah mengeluarkan semula daripada riwayat Tabrani dan Baihaqi bahawa seseorang yang payah untuk menghafal al-Quran tetapi terus juga mempelajarinya di dalam hati akan mendapat dua kali ganda ganjarannya. Begitulah juga seseorang yang ingin untuk menghafalnya tetapi tidak ada kebolehan untuk melakukannya, tetapi tidak berputus asa daripada membacanya akan dikira oleh Allah Yang Maha Kuasa sebagai termasuk di kalangan para hafiz (huffaz) di hari Kebangkitan semula kelak.

anak kamu telah mempelajari Al-Qur'an

AL-QUR'AN SEBAGAI PEMBELA DI HARI AKHIRAT

Abu Umamah r.a. berkata : "Rasulullah S.A.W telah menganjurkan supaya kami semua mempelajari Al-Qur'an, setelah itu Rasulullah S.A.W memberitahu tentang kelebihan Al-Qur'an."

Telah bersabda Rasulullah S.A.W : Belajarlah kamu akan Al-Qur'an, di akhirat nanti dia akan datang kepada ahli-ahlinya, yang mana di kala itu orang sangat memerlukannya."

Ia akan datang dalam bentuk seindah-indahnya dan ia bertanya, " Kenalkah kamu kepadaku?" Maka orang yang pernah membaca akan menjawab : "Siapakah kamu?"

Maka berkata Al-Qur'an : "Akulah yang kamu cintai dan kamu sanjung, dan juga telah bangun malam untukku dan kamu juga pernah membacaku di waktu siang hari."

Kemudian berkata orang yang pernah membaca Al-Qur'an itu : "Adakah kamu Al-Qur'an?" Lalu Al-Qur'an mengakui dan menuntun orang yang pernah membaca mengadap Allah S.W.T. Lalu orang itu diberi kerajaan di tangan kanan dan kekal di tangan kirinya, kemudian dia meletakkan mahkota di atas kepalanya.

Pada kedua ayah dan ibunya pula yang muslim diberi perhiasan yang tidak dapat ditukar dengan dunia walau berlipat ganda, sehingga keduanya bertanya : "Dari manakah kami memperolehi ini semua, pada hal amal kami tidak sampai ini?"

Lalu dijawab : "Kamu diberi ini semua kerana anak kamu telah mempelajari Al-Qur'an."

FADHILAT SURAH AL-FATIHAH

FADHILAT SURAH AL-FATIHAH


Oleh DR. ZULKIFLI MOHAMAD ALBAKRI





Surah ini dinamakan dengan berbagai-bagai nama seperti al-Fatihah, Um al-Kitab, al-Sab’ai al-Masthani dan lain-lain. Imam al-Qurtubi menghitung 12 nama fatihah sedangkan al-Alusi menyebut sebahagian ulama mengira sampai 22 nama, sama ada secara tauqif daripada Nabi atau ijtihad para sahabat.





Mempunyai tujuh ayat dengan ijmak yang bersalahan ulama pada cara bilangannya sama ada basmalah termasuk dalam ayat atau tidak.





Surah al-Fatihah termasuk surah-surah Makkiah seperti yang dinyatakan oleh al-Wahidi dalam Asbab al-Nuzul dan al-Tha’labi oleh Ibn Abi Syaibah, Abu Naim dan al-Baihaqi.





Ada pendapat yang menganggap surah ini termasuk surah Madaniah berdasarkan kepada apa yang diriwayatkan oleh Ibn Abi Syaibah, Abu Said bin al-A’rabi, al-Tabarani daripada Mujahid daripada Abi Hurairah: “Menangislah iblis ketika diturunkan al-Fatihah di Madinah.”





Pendapat yang ketiga ini diturunkan dua kali, Mekah dan Madinah sebagai menghimpun antara riwayat-riwayat.





Keistimewaan dan fadhilat surah al-Fatihah





Nas-nas hadis yang menunjukkan banyak kelebihan surah al-Fatihah, antaranya:





v Sebesar-besar surah dari segi kelebihannya seperti riwayat al-Bukhari daripada Abi Said bin Mu’alla.





v Tiada tandingan dan bandingan dengan mana-mana surah dan kitab seperti Taurat, Injil, Zabur dan al-Furqan daripada surah al-Fatihah seperti riwayat Imam Ahmad daripada Ubay bin Ka’ab.





v Dua cahaya yang digembirakan oleh Malaikat iaitu al-Fatihah dan penutup surah al-Baqarah seperti riwayat Muslim daripada Ibn Abbas.





v Penyembuh penyakit seperti terkena patukan ular, kala jengking dan lain-lain. Ini dinyatakan al-Bukhari dan Muslim daripada Abi Said al-Khudri.





v Kelebihan al-Fatihah jelas apabila diwajibkan dalam setiap rakaat solat seperti riwayat al-Bukhari, Muslim dan al-Tirmizi daripada Abu Hurairah.





v Menyembuh penyakit gila seperti riwayat Imam Ahmad, Abu Daud, al-Nasa’ie, Ibn Sunni, Ibn Jarir, al-Hakim yang mensahihkannya daripada Kharijah bin al-Salt al-Tamimi daripada bapa saudaranya yang datang bertemu Rasulullah s.a.w dan pulang kemudian lalu di perkampungan yang terdapat seorang lelaki yang dirantai dengan besi lantas kata keluarganya: “Adakah kamu boleh rawatnya, kerana kamu datang daripada sahabatmu (Rasulullah s.a.w) yang amat baik.”





Aku pun baca al-Fatihah selama 3 hari dengan dua kali pagi dan petang setiap hari, aku hembus ke mukanya kemudian dengan izin Allah dia sembuh dan diberikan kepadaku 100 ekor kambing, aku datang kepada Rasulullah s.a.w dan menceritakannya, sabda Rasulullah s.a.w (yang bermaksud): “Makanlah, siapa yang berjampi dengan bathil? Sesungguhnya awak berjampi dengan sebenarnya.”





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


Baca dan ketahuilah ‘Rahsia Fadhilat Surah Fatihah‘ ini. Serta amalkanlah ilmu yang kita dapat. InsyaAllah.


1. Untuk membuatkan seseorang (suami anda, isteri anda, anak2 anda) supaya sentiasa ingat dan kasih pada anda :

3. Untuk merawat masalah sakit kepala / sakit yang berkaitan dengan otak:


· Baca surah al-Fatihah 7 kali sambil mengusapkan kepala orang yang sakit tersebut.


· Lakukannya 1 kali sebelah pagi dan 1 kali sebelah malam setiap hari tanpa gagal.


4. Untuk mengurangkan kesakitan yang melampau:


· Baca surah al-Fatihah 3 kali dan tiupkan dalam segelas air dan minum air tersebut.


· Kemudian, baca surah al-Fatihah sambil mengusap ditempat yang berasa sakit tersebut.


5. Untuk menghentikan bayi / anak kecil yang sedang menangis (samaada menangis ditengah malam atau pada bila2 masa sekalipun):


· Baca surah al-Fatihah 7 kali sambil mengusapkan kepala bayi/anak kecil tersebut.


6. Untuk merawat luka2 kecil: Contohnya luka terkena pisau, luka disengat tebuan, darah keluar tak berhenti, jari terkepit pintu dan sebagainya…)


· Baca surah al-Fatihah 3 atau 7 kali


· Kemudian, gunakan ibu jari, ambil sedikit air liur dari bahagian “langit-langit” dan gosokkannya pada kawasan yang terluka tersebut.





Semua cara yang diterangkan di atas, INSYAALLAH pasti akan mendatangkan kesan dengan beberapa syarat:


1. Percaya dan yakin bahawa Surah al-Fatihah ialah sebaik-baik penawar untuk segala macam jenis penyakit (dengan kuasa Allah yang menjadikan surah al-Fatihah penuh keistimewaan)


2. Baca dengan penuh “khusyuk” dan “Tawadhu”


3. Tawakal sepenuhnya pada Allah


4. Gunakan amalan tersebut dengan NIAT YANG BAIK saja
