Siapakah Julaibib

Pesona Hati Julaibib
=============

Julaibib namanya. Berpenampilan lusuh, postur tubuh kecil dan rupa yang tidak terlalu menarik, membuat adanya seperti tiadanya. Tak diketahui jelas siapa ayah dan kakek moyangnya. Padahal bagi bangsa Arab nasab adalah sesuatu yang sangat penting. Para sahabat pun tidak banyak yang menaruh perhatian padanya.

Lantas apa menariknya Julaibib? Saat ia mati syahid, Rasulullah saw bertanya kepada para sahabat di akhir pertempuran, “Apakah kalian kehilangan seseorang?” Serempak para sahabat menjawab, “Tidak, ya Rasulullah.” Beliau mengulang pertanyaan itu tiga kali dan mendapat jawaban yang sama. Dengan menarik napas dalam, Rasulullah bersabda, “Tetapi aku kehilangan Julaibib.” Serentaklah para sahabat mencarinya.

Julaibib ditemukan berlumuran darah dengan 16 luka di bagian depan badannya, di tengah gelimpangan tujuh orang musuh. Rasulullah mengafaninya seraya berkata, “Ya Allah, dia bagian dari diriku dan aku bagian dari dirinya.”

Sahabat, banyak di antara kita yang telah dianugerahi Allah nikmat berlimpah—harta, kedudukan, kesehatan, dan lainnya. Di atas semua itu, Allah telah menganugerahkan nikmat iman dan Islam. Namun sering kali nikmat iman tidak mampu mengendalikan diri kita untuk bersyukur dengan limpahan nikmat dunia.

Kita merasa selalu kurang, seperti kurang harta, sehingga menyeret kita untuk korupsi. Dalam skala lebih kecil dan sederhana, rasa tidak percaya diri dan minder kerap hinggap karena kita selalu merasa kurang. Kurang cantik, misalnya, padahal demikianlah Allah menakdirkan rupa kita. Lebih disayangkan lagi ketika kita tidak mampu menyikapi semua itu dengan iman.

Iman kepada Rasulullah dan perkataan beliau semestinya menggairahkan kita untuk meraih kemuliaan di sisi Allah bukan dari ukuran fisik. Bukankah Rasulullah bersabda, “Sesungguhnya Allah tidak melihat kepada jasad dan rupa kalian akan tetapi Allah melihat hati-hati kalian.”

Sahabat, Julaibib telah memberi teladan bahwa postur tubuh, tampilan rupa, strata sosial tidak harus membuat kita rendah diri. Ia telah mengajarkan kita bahwa semua berhak mendapatkan tempat mulia di sisi Allah. Tak peduli orang sekitar menganggap adanya seperti tiadanya.

Ia lebih fokus pada upaya menyucikan hatinya. Ia lebih bersemangat mematutkan hati agar mendapat tempat mulia di sisi-Nya. Ia lebih memilih surga dan para bidadari daripada dunia.

Julaibib membuat Allah dan Rasul-Nya terpesona sehingga Rasulullah mengatakan, “Dia bagian dari diriku dan aku bagian dari dirinya.” Julaibib telah mendahului kita mengambil posisi mulia di sisi Allah. Lalu apakah kita sudah berusaha menyusulnya?

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).
