Salam everyone,
Well, I must say that it had been a hectic week for me to handle a lot of unexpected things that came through my way..but alhamdulillah all went well~
Actually, I have things that I think I must share here..
Pernah dengar tentang fitnah pada akhir zaman kan? I bet all of you should know more about it. Ada banyak contoh tentang fitnah pd akhir zaman ni, yang jelasnya ialah wanita, harta, pangkat and so on. But yesterday someone told me about another thing that can cause this :
Iaitu ilmu pengetahuan yang tinggi tapi ramai yang kehilangan makrifahnya.
Makrifah bermaksud petunjuk Allah dan ayat di atas ini menjelaskan tentang sesetengah manusia yang masih melakukan perkara2 yang dilarang oleh Allah walaupun mempunyai pengetahuan tentangnya. Cth : seorg peguam yg mengambil rasuah & membela pesalah or seorang lecturer yg berzina n much more. It can be anything. The simplest example is a student who is learning but at the same time, he/she doesn't pray, doesn't obey to what Allah has obliged us to do.
Pernah dengar juga mengenai kenyataan ini kan :
Ilmu yg suci tidak akan masuk ke dalam hati yg bermaksiat.
Aaah dis is the best part :-
1)tapi macam mana ya orang yg byk buat maksiat blh dpt pointer yg lbh baik n tinggi? n
2)kenapa org yg rajin solat,pergi usrah semua x blh dpt( apa yg org di atas ni blh)?
I will include some of the phrases from the Quran, try to understand it :
"Dan sekiranya orang2 yg zalim mempunyai segala apa yg ada di bumi dan ditambah lagi sebanyak itu, nescaya mereka akan menebus dirinya dengan itu dari azab yg buruk pd hari kiamat." [39:47] ,referring to the 1st part.
and
"Apakah manusia mengira bahawa mereka akan dibiarkan hanya dengan mengatakan "Kami telah beriman" dan mereka tidak diuji? Dan sungguh, Kami telah menguji org2 sblm mereka,maka Allah pasti mengetahui org2 yg benar dan org2 yg berdusta." [29:2&3], referring to the 2nd part.
Hmm..remember this as well, we as a muslim have 2 options in our life. whether to live well or live hell. There are also 2 visions in our life. World & Hereafter. Sepatutnya, sebagai seorang umat Islam, kita seharusnya membuat banyak amal kebaikan sebagai bekalan untuk ke akhirat nanti tetapi dalam masa yang sama kita tidak boleh sewenang-wenangnya melepaskan tuntutan dan kewajipan kita sebagai seorang khalifah di atas muka bumi ini. Never! We should be strong spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically.
And have you ever heard of the word motivation? sure you all have..it means motive and action,rite??hehe..I'm not very sure but we must have a motive or a vision and work hard for it. We cannot achieve what we want by just taking things for granted. It never works. What I'm trying to point out here is if you had made a mind to do something good, go ahead and do it. Don't be doubtful about it. And yeah, always know your strengths and weaknesses to face the obstacles in your life. The more you know about yourself the more you will appreciate yourself and the more you will be grateful to Allah. InsyaAllah, let's all of us pray for the best for ourselves and for the people we love. ^_^
