Rasoolullah's robe



In Madinah, there was lot of munafeequn, those people who convert to islam for not real, fact that they hate islam. the most popular munafeequn is Abdullah bin ubay bin salul. He was the most dangerous one, we had made up stories among anshar people that almost start the war between khazraj tribe and Aus tribe which had united under the flag of islam.
One day Abdullah bin ubay got sick, his son "abdullah" came over Rasoolullah Muhammad SAW, he's known as true muslim and very different from his father 180 degree.
He said to Rosulullah SAW, “O' Rosoolullah, my father sick, I think his death's near. he told me to ask you to visit him. And Rasoolullah SAW agreed.
seen this, Omar ibnu Khatab sullened, he Upset heard Rosoolullah had accepted abdullah's request.
Then Rosoolullah wear the most beautiful robe he had, to respect Abdullah bin ubay, then rasoolullah and umar ibnu khatab arrived at abdullah bin ubay's house. Abdullah bin ubay seems so frightened, worried abt his bad deeds all his live to muslim and islam, he hold Rosoolullah's robe so tight and said " O Rasoolullah please cover my body with ur robe, please give it to me so i can die covered by ur robe..."
omar ibnu khatab got mad, but Rosoolullah keep show his highest nobles, then he put off his robe and cover abdullah bin ubay with his own robe. Abdullah's getting calm think that his sins had been forgiven by Allah. abdullah bin ubay died.
Then Omar ibnu khatab says to Rosoolullah
“why you had give ur robe to abdullah, like he was ur lover, meanwhile he was ur foe. Rosoolullah replied him and show his smile,
"Abdullah s the one who hate me, i m not even hate him"
“ya... u treat him too good, u even gave him ur robe, whereas the other sahabah would not get this chance to die covered by ur robe,
“O' Omar please don’t be in narrow minded, can i not treat him nice just a second before he had the eternal torment, he wouldn't be saved from hellfire by my robe, my robe couldn't save anyone from hell, but only their eeman and their good deeds.”

what we got here??,
fulfill last request of someone who dying even he hate you all his life,
show the highest respect to other people with the best u can give…even they hate you,
treat someone nicely… though they had treat u bad
anyone could be hate you… just don’t hate them
don’t be narrow minded…. think that only eeman and good deeds can bring eternal happiness
can we???... why we always make excuses “We are not Rosool” why not think “We learn from Rasoolullah”

Dried field needs to be plowed



A’udzubillahiminnasysyaitannirrajiem
Bissmilllahirrahmaniirahim

I seek Allah’s guidance in write this… cos it might only cos of my lust to write this… to encounter whole things happened to me these days…
Started with place where I work this time and b4… it is always dried field of Islamic atmosphere… place where I’m the only one stricted to sharia… hijabified, trying to avoid in shake hand with man (but sometimes its hard), surely prayer and fasting, and “fearless to my boss :D” these such attitudes are definitely strange for my colleagues at office.
i’m totally realize these situation would reduce my iman, being here is quite difficult, meet different thoughts from different people… fact is… its true… I’m poisoned. sometimes loose control, (but tried to not drowned by the current) some might says I’m dying.
one thing might need to considered, we are the best among us… what make muslim special and different with jews are we’re doing da’wah wherever we are. we enjoin the good deeds and forbid the bad deeds.
Allah won’t put upon us something we can’t bear. we never know, which level are we, when we never try to play a part of this session (da’wah), can we say we can’t bear of something when we never tried??? some muslim more choose to plow the vertilized field cos its simple or just try to have save job, some other let theirselves infected and with Allah’s help nutrized their life with antibody they’ve prepared before plow this area.
we can change our perspectives when we look something, I look this dried field as potential area for me to plant seeds of islam, I look this area as place where I can strive to get Allah’s mercies, have we think, that they need us? they might dried cos no one interest to soak them with islam, not because they refused, they might darkened cos they don’t know how to turn on the light of islam, (in this case… I m in muslim population) its our responsibility. I think, it just not the right time to be exclusive, and personally possessed by being saint, we don’t need saint, we need people to vertilize the dried field.
sometimes we think thats useless work on this, does man deserve to reward what we have done? Man isn’t Allah… Allah is the One who can jugde the rewards, there’s nothing useless in the eyes of Allah if we look for Allah’s bless, but when we only focus just for the result, means we are a looser. how pathetic, think that we have right to calculate with mathematic the success of da’wah. but remember we r never fail in da’wah long as we tried, new generation will come and continue this way. it always be like this. hope when I sign out from here... this field had been ready to be planted by new comers. inshaAllah. and pls pray 4 me to call my friends to obey Allah
it’s a ridiculous when I write this, my senses yell at me, “you’re polluted, infected and poisoned…”
Allah… help me!!! I m going under of this ship… its abt time to be drowned…
I need to refuel my antibody that I unable to get from my old docter. d ya have same like me?
lets share… I might need nasihah from u or u can be my online teacher. here u can mail me: Webmistress
u can my docter too *wink*
Alhamdulillahirabbil'Alamin

COMPLAINT



i use to offer my maghrib prayer near bus station... in the mosque of police building ... i think its more safety than in the bus station...
but what have they done to me... yesterday they detained my bag, wht the hell is this? they must think i m terrorist cos i wear hejab... good that they didnt touch me to make sure i m clear from "BOOMS".... c'mon i m entered House of Allah, which that is more secured place in any where, the place where we r guaranteed that we'll be save in it...my point is.... they treat me as terrorist, with suspicion just b'cos my cloths...
finished with my prayer, i took my bag and ask their permission to check my stuff and said to them.... "Let me check my bag... whether i lost something in it" and showed my suspicious face
they just smiled
Never judge the book by its cover

arrived at ur home, one of ulema of ur area helped u, and blow some winds from his mouth... MasyaAllah... i smelled fragrances all over the room... and the air became so cold. i shivered...even when i remember the fragrance of the wind... can u tell me what was that????.... Is It the Fragrance of Heaven? i bet it was a small part of heaven's fragrances...
