A one-to-one with your Heart..

By -


Assalamu’alaikum ____ ,

If you’re standing in prayer in these last few days of Ramadan doing your best to ‘feel’ closer to Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) yet somehow feel distanced, If you’re wondering why those around you are all crying like babies whilst you’re completely emotion-less, If you wish you could be of those with soft hearts and tearful eyes in Ramadan, but it doesn’t seem to happen and you fail to reach that level in your spiritual worship – then it’s time to have a serious one-to-one conversation with your heart.

Ask your heart, why is it so cold? Why do the Words of its Creator have no effect or impact on it at all? Is it that arrogant that it doesn’t need it’s Lord?!

Ask it why is it so hard? Why no emotions are expressed of either fear or joy of being with its Creator?
Ask it why is it a hypocrite? It’ll cry watching a movie when it knows it’s not real but will not cry when it hears the truth about its ultimate destination.

Keep digging deeper until you find the answer. Get your heart to break in front of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) this Ramadan. There’s no sweeter feeling than a sincere heart that cries out to Allah. Don’t let Ramadan go and you haven’t cried even once in front of your Lord inshaAllah.

Sincerely,
Abu Productive (ProductiveMuslim)

Doa Haikal dan khasiatnya

Adalah diriwayatkan oleh Rasulullah SAW pada suatu hari sedang baginda duduk di dalam masjid Madinah, maka Jibril pun datang membawa firman. Ujarnya,”Ya Rasulullah. Salam Allah Ta’ala pada tuan hamba dan firmannya: Hai kekasihku adapun doa haikal (7 doa ini) dihantarkan pada tuan hamba. Maka barangsiapa tiada percaya akan doa ini, kafirlah ia dan barangsiapa membacanya atau menyimpannya maka Allah SWT melepaskan dia dan ibu bapanya daripada api neraka. Ya Muhammad. Barangsiapa menaruh doa ini di dalam rumahnya, maka tiada boleh masuk jin dan syaitan ke dalam rumahnya itu. Barangsiapa suratkan doa ini dan dipakai diperbuat tangkal(azimat), nescaya lepaslah ia daripada azab sengsara dan wabak, serta duduk dalam aman. Dan barangsiapa menaruh doa ini, sentiasalah ia dihormati orang dan termulialah ia pada orang ramai dan ketika hendak mati pun tiadalah ia merasai azab sakaratulmaut itu. Maka dengan mudah sahaja nyawa itu keluar. Barangsiapa membaca doa ini tiap tiap hari, dan jik...

THE MEANING OF SUCCESS AND FAILURE

By -

by : Muhammad Harun The Arabic word for success, which also recurs in the Generous Qur’an, is ‘falāh’, a word we are all familiar with as we hear it five times a day “…hayya ‘ala_l falāh!” in every adhan. Interestingly enough, the same root fa‐lam‐ha is also used in the Arabic word for farmer – fallāh, the literal meaning of which is something like ‘a person, who is successful by habit or by profession’. Here lies one key to the real meaning of success: The farmer of all professions is perhaps the one, who is least in control over the outcome of his efforts and labor; he tills the soil and throws the seed grains, and then he trusts in God. He leaves it to HIM to send lightening and rain and provide sunlight in the required measure to make the seeds germinate and grow, and he depends on HIS qudrah and rahmah to withhold hailstorms, droughts and pests while the plants are tender and vulnerable, and then again to provide dry weather to bring in the harvest – at least that is how it used t...

Soal Jawab : Ghibah

By -

Soalan Ass. Wr. Wb. Saya heran ustadz, banyak tempat buat lahan amal ghibah sekarang ini. Semua orang suka membicarakan (aib?) orang lain dan sepertinya menikmatinya dan bahkan menghasilkan rezeki plus dosa bagi sebagian orang. Mungkin mereka takut kalau mereka membicarakan diri sendiri, mereka akan terperangkap ke dalam mengamalkan perbuatan yang mengarah kepada penyakit-penyakit hati (pamer kebaikan diri, riya’, sum’ah, ujub, takabur, dan lain sebagainya). Pertanyaan saya, ghibah yang Islamy, yang syar’i, yang diizinkan menurut kacamata syariah, yang diridhoi Alloh SWT, dan bahkan yang semakin mendekatkan diri kita kepada Sang Khalik itu yang bagaimana ya? Afwan kalau pertanyaan ini menggelitik sanubari kita. Jazakalloh khoiron katsiiro, yaa Ustadz. Wass. Wr. Wb. Jawaban Assalamu 'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, Tidak ada ghibah yang Islami. Sebagaimana tidak ada zina yang Islami, mabuk yang Islami, mencuri yang Islami atau durhaka yang Islami. Membicarakan aib suadara, teman...
