Kisah Solat Para Sahabat
Assalamualaikum
kepada semua saudara-saudaraku di luar sana. Apa khabar semua, sihat
tak hari ini ? moga sihat-sihatlah kalian semua ya dengan apa hendaknya.
Kali ini kita akan membincangkan tentang sedikit kisah solat Para
Sahabat Nabi. Para Sahabat nabi bukanlah calang-calang orang, mereka
semuanya adalah orang yang sentiasa bersama Nabi dalam apa jua keadaan.
Jika
dibandingkan solat umat akhir zaman sekarang ini memang jauh dibezakan
dengan para sahabat Nabi. Kita sahaja solat belum tentu sekhusyuk dan
senikmat dengan solat para sahabat-sahabat Nabi sehinggakan
selemah-lemah sahabat pun diriwayatkan sekurang-kurangnya mereka solat
200 rakaat setiap hari. Bagaimana pula dengan kita yang lemah ini ?
Tepuk dada tanya iman. Kita saja solat Lima waktu terasa berat untuk
dikerjakan apalagi 200 rakaat memang rasa nak patahlah tulang belakang
tu, betul tak ?.
Jika
kita nak mencontohi solat para sahabat-sahabat Nabi, jom kita ikuti
kisah di bawah. Semoga ianya bermanfaat kepada kita semua.... Ambillah
pengajran dari kisah dibawah.
Kisah 1:
Pada
suatu ketika, peha Sayyidina Ali r.a. Telah terkena panah. Apabila cuba
dicabut, beliau merasa begitu sakit. Seseorang telah mencadangkan
supaya panah itu dicabut ketika beliau sedang solat. Apabila selesai
solat, beliau bertanya sudahkah mereka mencabut panah tersebut. Mereka
menjawab ya. Apabila ditanya, apakah beliau tidak merasa sakit? Beliau
menjawab, beliau sedikit pun tidak merasa sakit.
Kisah 2:
Pada
suatu ketika di medan jihad, Nabi telah bertanya kepada para
sahabatnya, siapakah yang bersedia untuk menjaga khemah beliau pada
waktu malam. Dua orang sahabat telah bersetuju. Seorang bernama Ammar
bin Yasir r.a dan seorang lagi bernama Abbad bin Basyir r.a. Pada malam
itu mereka telah berkawal. Abbad telah mencadangkan kepada Ammar supaya
mereka berkawal secara bergilir. Beliau akan menjaga pada sebahagian
malam dan Ammar akan berkawal pada sebahagian malam lagi. Ammar telah
bersetuju.
Maka
Abbad telah berkawal. Sementara berkawal beliau telah mendirikan solat.
Dalam solatnya itu, beliau telah membaca surah Al Kahfi. Seorang
peninjau musuh telah melihat beliau sedang solat lalu melepaskan panah
kepadanya. Satu anak panah telah kena pada badannya. Apabila melihat
beliau masih tetap solat, maka musuh telah melepaskan panah yang kedua.
Bagaimanapun, Abbad tetap juga solat. Musuh tersebut melepaskan panah
yang ketiga, lalu Abbad memberhentikan solatnya. Apabila melihatkan
keadaan itu dan terlihat Ammar yang berada di situ, maka pihak musuh
menyangkakan masih ramai lagi tentera Islam yang berkawal di situ. Lalu
musuh tersebut telah melarikan diri.
Dengan
badan yang berlumuran darah, Abbad telah mengejutkan Ammar yang sedang
tidur. Melihatkan badan sahabatnya yang berlumuran darah itu, Ammar
begitu terkejut. Ammar bertanya mengapa beliau lambat membangunkannya.
Dia menjawab, ketika itu beliau merasa sungguh nikmat dan malu dengan
Allah untuk menghentikan solatnya. Tetapi apabila panah yang ketiga
mengenai dirinya, beliau bimbang akan keselamatan Nabi saw, maka kerana
itulah dia memberhentikan solatnya. Kalau tidak sudah pasti dia tidak
akan menghentikan solatnya dan rela mati dalam keadaan demikian.
Lihatlah
mutu solat para sahabat. Bagaimana pula dengan solat kita hari ini?
Seekor nyamuk pun boleh merosakkan solat kita. Firman Allah yang
bermaksud: "Dan neraka Waillah bagi orang yang lalai dalam solatnya."
(Surah Al-Ma'un) Semoga Allah memberi kita kekuatan untuk mengamalkan
apa yang kita tahu dan dapat menyampaikannya di antara satu sama lain.

The Names and Attributes of The One, Allah..
Allah has described Himself in the
Quran through His Names and Attributes. Muslims believe that studying these Names
and Attributes is one of the most effective ways of strengthening one’s
relationship with God. Each Name and Attribute nourishes a kind of
consciousness and humility in man and their study leads one to constantly
better their actions.
“The most beautiful names belong to
Allah: so call on Him by them.” (Quran, 7:180)
Muslims are asked to call upon God
during their supplications by the most appropriate names that relate to what
they are asking for. For example, if one is seeking forgiveness from God for a
sin they have committed, they would call upon Him by His name “Al-Ghaffar,”
meaning “The Ever Forgiving.” If one is asking for peace and tranquility in
their life while experiencing a period of tension, they would call on God by
His name “As-Salaam,” meaning “The Ultimate Source of Peace.”
The table below captures an
approximate translation of a selection of Allah’s names as found in the Quran.
We have chosen to provide some commentary on His names relating to Mercy.
However, each of the names listed could be the subject of its own article.
Names Relating to Mercy
The primary Names of Allah
specifically dealing with Mercy are Ar-Rahman and Ar-Rahim. These
two names frequently occur together in the Qur’an. They are both derived from
the same root word rahmah which means mercy and also has elements of
sympathy, kindness, gentleness, compassion and love intertwined with it. As
with all the Names of Allah, these are Names of majesty and perfection. Allah
therefore manifests these qualities to the most perfect level with His
Creation. Ar-Rahman signifies a flood of mercy that covers us and is endless.
The mercy we see in this world which
Allah has put among His Creation is just a hundredth of all His Mercy. Examples
of mercy that we see in His creation includes the love a mother has for her
child (human and otherwise), the eyes with which we are able to see, the food
which we are provided to consume, the generosity and kindness we show to
others.
Can
we image what life would be like if these things, that we often take for
granted, did not exist? When we realize that this is only a small portion of
His Mercy, we learn to better appreciate (although we cannot comprehend) the
extent of His Mercy. The other 99 parts are for the Day of Judgment and the
Hereafter, when God provides shade for the believers, makes their accounting
easy, and admits them to Paradise.
God’s Mercy comes before and
prevails over His Anger. We take refuge in His Mercy from His Wrath.
“Say: O my servants who have acted
extravagantly against their own souls, do not despair of the mercy of Allah;
surely Allah forgives the faults altogether; surely He is the Forgiving the
Merciful” (Quran, 39:53).
Allah’s name “Al-Ghaffar,” meaning
“The Ever Forgiving,” is related to His Mercy. If one is sincere in asking for
forgiveness from Allah, there is no sin that it too great for Him to forgive.
When asking for forgiveness, a person would ask directly of God and there is no
intermediary or religious cleric that would intervene. Islam has the principle
that one has a direct relationship with God and one should learn to have
dependence, faith and trust in Him for all their affairs.
The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is
reported to have said that no man’s good deeds are alone enough to get him
admitted into Paradise, but it is only by the Mercy of God that people will
enter Paradise. Our deeds are a tool to get close to God to a place where we
can be hopeful of His Mercy.
Some other Names of Allah that are
related to His Mercy (with rough translations) are Al-Karim (the Generous),
Al-Halim (the Forbearing), Al-Barr (the Generous), Al-Jawwad
(the Bestower of Good), Ar-Rauf (the Kind) and Al-Wahhab (the
Bestower).
