1. Any Muslim practice or behaviour with respect to non-Muslim festivals and celebrations that involve the questions of aqida or conviction such as acknowledging other religion or believing that all religions are same, are prohibited in Islam

2. However, if the stated practice or behaviour is done on the basis of societal or social relationship between Muslims and non-Muslims for the purpose of harmony is permitted in Islam

3. To give congratulatory and good wishers or to send greetings using cards or telecommunication devices such as e-mails, short messaging system (sms) or etc to non Muslims during their religious festivals is permissible, on the condition that the greetings do not recognise, praise, glorify the religion of non-Muslims and also do not use any of their religious symbols in the greetings sent.

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 : 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

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...
