Sword Flashlight

Readers, may Allah Subhaanallaahu wa Ta’aala always devote His mercy to all of us, one of the portraits of reality contained in the womb of Islamic history. Monumental events that will never be forgotten in the minds of true Muslims. Events that describe the opposition of two opposite sides. The fight between truth against evil. Civilized humans fight savage humans. Noble humans fight despicable humans. Muslims who love peace clash with unbelievers who like chaos. A heartbreaking tragedy that contained important and valuable lessons for true Muslims on the advice and commands (sunnah-sunnah) of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam. A bloody incident of armed contact between Muslims against the Quraish polytheists that occurred in the third year of Shawwal, the event was known as the Battle of Uhud. The following excerpt summarizes the story:

Battle background

Overcast sadness still covered the city of Mecca. It is undeniable that the Quraysh Mushrikin were unable to hide the profound grief regarding their crushing defeat at the Badr war of the second year of the Hijrah, their hearts grieved innocently. News of the defeat of the Quraysh forces was felt so quickly spread throughout the city of Makkah, like moving clouds covering the gap in the empty sky in the rainy season. The news of the sadness felt that an earthquake shook the skulls of the idolaters. However, it is very unfortunate, the crushing defeat of the Quraysh paganists in the war was unable to change their violent attitude towards the Muslims. The grudge of burning anger was firmly rooted in their hearts, the death of high social strata of Quraysh figures in the unfortunate event increasingly added to the thick hatred of Quraysh towards the Muslims.

Preparation of the Quraysh army

Quraysh figures such as Ikrimah bin Abu Jahal, Shafwan bin Umayah, and Abu Sufyan bin Harb – before they converted to Islam – rose as pioneers who were very keen to ignite the fire of revenge against Islam and its followers. The great orators of the Arabs took precise steps to smooth out the revenge program, at first they forbade the people of Mecca from lamenting the death of the Badr war dead then postponed ransom payments to the Muslims to free the Quraysh prisoners remaining in Medina. They were busy raising funds to meet the revenge action, they came to the owners of the Quraysh trade caravan which was the main trigger for the Badr war, while calling on: “O Quraysh! Indeed Muhammad has persecuted you and killed your characters! Then help us with your possessions to repay! Hopefully we can avenge them. “

The plan received a warm response from the Quraysh community, cash in a very short period of time collected enough war funds in the form of 1000 camels and 50,000 pieces of gold. As Allah Subhaanallaahu wa Ta’aala reports in the thirty-sixth verse of surat Al-Anfal:

Indeed, they disbelieve in their infidels to deter men from the path of Allah …

Day after day their efforts seemed to get significant results. Why not, in just one year they were able to gather troops three times greater than the number of Quraysh troops in the war a year ago (Badr war) plus adequate weapons facilities consisting of 3000 camels, 200 horses and 700 armor, the total amount troops of no less than 3000 soldiers plus fifteen women were tasked with fanning the spirit of combat and driving the troops back and forth.

Acting as the supreme commander of the Quraysh army was Abu Sufyan bin Harb, while the cavalry under the command of Khalid bin Al Walid and Ikrimah bin Abu Jahal, while the war banners were held by war experts from the Banu Abdud Dar, and a line of women under Hindun bintu ‘coordination Utbah Abu Sufyan’s wife. It felt complete and adequate preparation of Quraysh during the period of the war round this time, the procession of a large army full of anarchism and angry wrath was now advancing towards Madinah bearing the mission of revenge and venting the desires of evil demons.

News arrived at the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam

He received a secret letter from his uncle Al Abbas bin Abdul Mutthalib who was still living in Makkah. At that time the Messenger of Allaah alaihi wa Sallam was in Quba, Ubay bin Ka’ab was asked to read the letter and keep the contents secret. He rushed to Medina to make preparations for the military to welcome the arrival of ‘unexpected guests’.

As the wind blows, the news of the movement of the infidel Quraish forces spread throughout the Medina, no doubt the condition of the city is cash tense suddenly, the residents of the city are on standby, each man cannot be separated from his weapon even in the condition of prayer. To the extent that they spend the night at the door of the house in a state of arms.

Military Council Assembly

The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam gathered his companions while saying: “By Allah I have seen a good sign, I saw a cow slaughtered, my sword blunted, and I put my hand in armor, I ta’wilkan cattle with the fall of a group of my best friend, my sword blunted with the death of one of my family members while armor with Medina “.

The Messenger of Allaah alaihi wa Sallam argued that he should remain in the city of Medina and serve their challenges in the mouths of the aisles of the city of Medina. This opinion was approved by the hypocritical kingpin Abdullah bin Ubay bin Salul, this enemy of Allah chose this opinion not on consideration of military strategy but so that he could easily escape the battle without striking a human view. As for the majority of friends, they tend to choose to welcome the challenges of Quraiys outside Madinah on the grounds that many of them did not have time to take part in the Badar war, this time they did not want to miss ‘planting stocks’ at the highest peak in Islam. Hamzah bin Abdul Mutthalib strongly supported this opinion while saying: “For the sake of the One Who lowered the Qur’an to you, truly I will not eat until I chop them with my sword outside Medina”

Taking into account the various proposals of the Companions finally the Prophet sallallaahu ahu alaihi wa Sallam decided to answer the challenge of Quraysh in the open field outside the city of Medina. And leave the tastes of Abdullah bin Ubay.

That day Friday the 6th of Syawwal 3H he gave a will to the Companions so that they were full of sincerity and that Allah would give help for their patience. Then they prayed Asr and he went into the house with Abu Bakr and Umar bin Al Khathab, at that time he was wearing armor and preparing weapons.

The friends regretted their attitude which forced the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa Sallam to come out of Medina, when the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam came out they said:” O Messenger of Allah, we do not intend to sneak your opinion, decide as you wish! If you prefer to stay in Medina then do it! “He replied:” It is inappropriate for a prophet to take off the armor that he has worn before Allah gives a decision between him and his enemy. “

General conditions of Islamic forces

The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam divided the Islamic forces into three battalions: Battalion of the Muhajirin under the command of Mush’ab bin Umair, Aus Battalion commanded by Usaid bin Hudhair and Khazraj Battalion led by Khabbab bin Al Mundzir. The total number of Islamic forces is only 1000 people, with minimal facilities in the form of 100 armor and 50 horses (told in a history: without any horses at all) in this war. Wallahu A’lam

Arriving at the Islamic forces in a place known as Asy Syaikhan, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam selected a number of friends who were very early in their age including Abdullah bin Umar bin Al Khathab, Usamah bin Zaid, Zaid bin Tsabit, Abu Said Al Khudry and some friends other young people, did not fail to appear sadness on their faces forced them to return to Medina.

The hypocrites make defections

Quibble because his opinion was rejected by the Messenger of Allaah S alaihi wa Sallam, the hypocritical figure Abdullah bin Ubay bin Salul took action in the body of Islamic forces. This enemy of Allah succeeded in provoking nearly one third of the total number of troops, no less than 300 people fled leaving the front of the jihad fisabilillah. This ‘two-faced man’ is intentionally carrying out a gossiping action in the midst of a trip to create concern in the hearts of the Islamic forces while simultaneously absorbing as much Muslim power as possible.

Military strategy of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam and the task of the army

The Messenger of Allaah aih alaihi wa Sallam the military strategist arranged a line of troops and divided their duties and mission. He placed 50 archers on the hill of Ainan serving as snipers under the command of Abdullah bin Jubair bin Nu’man Al Anshary, he gave military instructions while saying: “Fight them with your arrows! Don’t leave your position under any circumstances! Protect our backs with your arrows! Don’t help us even though we’re killed! And don’t join us even though we get booty! In Bukhari’s history: do not leave your position even though you see the birds grabbing us until my messenger comes to you!

Arriving at Uhud the two forces approached each other, the infidel commander of Quraysh Abu Sufyan tried to break the unity of the Islamic forces, he said to the Ansar: “Let our affairs with our uncle’s children (Rasulullah Shallahu‘ alaihi wa Sallam and the Muhajirin)! Then we will not disturb you, we have no interest in fighting you! “

However, Abu Sufyan’s efforts did not reap the rewards due to the solid faith of the Ansar. On the contrary, they reciprocated with a very spicy greeting that made the ears of those who heard it heat up.

The beginning of the battle

Thalhah bin Abi Talhah Al-Abdary, the leader of the Quraish infidel war, a man who was known to be very advanced and courageous advanced to challenge mubarazah (duel), as fast as lightning Zubair Ibnul Awwam pounced and slammed him then slit his throat, Thalhah helplessly released his last breath. The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam bertakbir and bertakbirlah the Muslims. Revived Abu Syaibah Uthman ibn Abi Talhah raised the banner again, with pride in challenging the duel, as fast as lightning also Hamzah bin Abdul Mutthalib hit his shoulder with a very strong sword to penetrate his belly button no doubt his hands and shoulders were released, Uthman fell helplessly dying. Next Abu Sa’ad bin Abi Talhah took the banner but along with that arrow Sa’ad bin Abi Waqash pierced his throat, inevitably he fell to the ground while sticking out his tongue into a pile of corpses. Musafi ‘bin Abi Talhah ventured to revive the banner of Quraysh but he was suddenly struck by the sharp arrow of Ashim bin Tsabit ibn Abul Aflah. Next Kilab bin Thalah bin Abi Talhah Musafi ‘brother raised the banner again but he soon collapsed to the ground ending his life after the sword Zubair bin Al Awwam grabbed his body. Al Jallas bin Abi Talhah immediately supported the banner, but the sword of Thalhah ibn Ubaidillah immediately fired lives from his body. The six brave came from one family of the Bani Abdi Dar tribe. Then Arthah bin Syurahbil advanced but Ali bin Abi Talib did not allow him to live long to carry a banner and immediately bulldoze it, a strange but real reality, not one of the polytheists took the banner but took his life to ten even met his death around the idolatry banner. After that none of them dared to take the banner lying on earth Uhud.

Wallähu Ta’älä A’lamu bish Shawäb.

The miracle of the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam The Exit of Water from his Fingers

The release of water from the fingers of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam is one proof of the truth of his message sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam. The incident was witnessed by many people and happened beyond human ability. Among the hadith that explain the event, is as told by a friend of Anas bin Malik narrated by Bukhari and Muslim:

“I saw the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam, and at that time Ahsar had arrived. Then humans seek water for ablution, but do not get it. Then there is someone carrying water for ablution. So he put his hand in the vessel where the water was and sent all the people to ablution from there. “Anas bin Malik Radiyallahu Anhu said:” I saw the water coming out of his fingers sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam, so that everyone could ablution with water that. “(Narrated by Bukhari, 3573, in the book Manaqib, Chapter: Address Nubuwwah fil-Islam, and Muslim, 2279)

One day during the battle of Hudaibaiyyah, people experienced thirst. They do not get water to drink and perform ablution except for a few in the drinking pot of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. So he sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam performed ablutions, then the humans scrambled to get water because there was very little water, so he sallallaahu’ alaihi wa sallam said, “What happened to you?” They replied, “We do not have water for ablution and drinking but you have. “So the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam put his hand in a place, then the water emanated from his fingers sallallaahu’ alaihi wa sallam like a spring. Then we also drink and perform ablution.

Then the hadith narrator, Salim bin Abi Ja’d asked Jaabir bin Abdillah: “How many of you are there?” Jaabir replied, “If we had one hundred thousand, make sure it would be sufficient. However, we only have five hundred people. “(Narrated by Al-Bukhari no. 3576, and Muslim no. 1856)

Qadhi Iyadh said, “The story narrated by people who are trusted (trustworthy) is from many congregations, the sanad arrived at the friends. And the incident occurred in the gathering places of some of them, in crowded places, and in gatherings of war troops. No one has denied the narrator. So this is an addition that explains about his prophethood. “(Fathul-Bari, 6/676)

Ibn Abdil Barr quoted the words of Imam Al-Muzani, that he said: “The exodus of water from the fingers of the Prophet was a greater miracle than the release of water from the stone when Moses struck his wand which then emitted water from it. Because the discharge of water from stone is a matter that has been understood and known, in contrast to the release of water between flesh and blood. “(Fathul-Bari, 6/677)

A poem reads:

“Even if Moses first aih alaihis salam can emit water with his stick, then from the hand of the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam, really the water will overflow. “

The Story of Prophet Idris Rises To Heaven

Prophet Idris aih Alaihissalam
Prophet Idris aih Peace be upon him is a prophet whom Allah praises for the perfect nature of justification, has perfect knowledge, firm belief, and many good deeds. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala also raised his name to all corners of nature, and Allah lifted his position among beings close to Him sallallaahu ahu alaihi wa sallam. Such is the comment of Syaikh As-Sa’di in interpreting Surat Maryam: 56-57.

In the Qur’an and the Sunnah it is not too long a story of the Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam. In the Koran there are only three verses which mention directly about it. Among them,

وَاذْكُرْ فِي الْكِتَابِ إِدْرِيسَ إِنَّهُ كَانَ صِدِّيقًا نَّبِيًّا {56} وَرَفَعْنَاهُ مَكَانًا عَلِيًّا {57}

“And remember in the Book of the Prophet Idris. He is a very justified person, again a Prophet. “(Surah Maryam: 56-57)

Mujahid explained about the verse that the Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam was appointed to heaven in a state of not dying like the Prophet Isa ‘alaihissalam (Tafsir Ath-Thabari, 72:16 with a sanad that is saheeh). There is another history which explains that he was appointed an angel to heaven, then came the angel of death taking his life there, wallahu a’lam.

Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam met the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam in the fourth heaven at the time of mi’raj. This shows that Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala placed his position in a high degree among the other prophets. The Word of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala in another verse,

وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَإِدْرِيسَ وَذَا الْكِفْلِ كَلٌّ مِّنَ الصَّابِرِينَ

“And Prophet Ismail, Prophet Idris, Prophet Dzulkifli, they are among those who are patient.” (QS. Al-Anbiya: 85)

Likewise, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam mentioned in the hadith something that hinted at the nature of the Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam. He said:

“It is a prophet from the prophets who draw the fate, then whoever is able to do it (with the knowledge that is certain and compatible), then it is permissible for him.” (Narrated by Muslim)

Some scholars say that the prophet in question (in the hadith above) is Prophet Idris ‘alaihissalam. Imam Nawawi explained about this hadith, “The real purpose of destiny is unlawful, because it is not done except with the condition that it must be with definite and appropriate knowledge, and it is not available to us. As for the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam did not mention the law, so as not to misinterpret that what the prophet did was haram, because indeed the prophet had his knowledge so that he could do it. As for we have no knowledge about it. “(Muslim Sharon, 5:21)

When is the Life of Prophet Idris aih Alaihissalam?
There is a fundamental difference about the history of the Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam, is he a prophet who lived before Noah ‘alaihissalam or afterwards? Historians such as Ibn Kathir, Ath-Tabari, Ibn Ishaq, Ibn Jarir, Ash-Syaukani, As-Suyuthi, and others explained that Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam lived before Noah ‘alaihissalam. Their reasons:

1. Judging from the nasab that the Prophet Idris’s real name is Khonukh which belongs to the ancestors of Noah aih alaihissalam.

2. Interpretation of verses:

أولئك الذين أنعم الله عليهم من النبيين من ذرية ءادم وممن حملنا مع نوح ومن ذرية إبراهيم وإسراءيل وممن هدينا واجتبينا إذا تتلى عليهم ءايات الرحمن خروا سجدا وبكيا

“These are the people whom Allah has favored, namely among the prophets of the descendants of Adam, and of those whom We adopted with Noah from the descendants of Ibrahim and Israel, and from those whom We gave instructions and We have chosen. When the verses of the Most Gracious Allah are read to them, they think by prostrating and crying. “(Surah Maryam: 58)

The meaning (من ذرية آدم) is the prophet Idris aih alaihissalam. Because in that verse it is sorted about the genealogy of the offspring. And Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam including the descendants of Prophet Adam ‘alaihissalam who were not with Noah‘ alaihissalam in a boat. Means Prophet Idris “Peace be upon him in his order before Noah” Peace be upon him.

3. Imam an-Nawawi said, “The words of Prophet Idris (مرحبا بالنبي الصالح والأخ الصالح)) did not prevent that the existence of Prophet Idris ‘Peace be upon him as the father of our prophet Muhammad sallallaahu’ alaihi wa sallam, because the words” brother who is pious “contain the meaning that it is a soft and civilized language, where you use lafaz even though he is his son because the prophets are all brothers, so also the believers are all brothers. “(Syarh Muslim, 2: 220).

As for other scholars, such as Al-Qurthubi, Muhammad bin Abdul Wahab, Ibn Uthaymeen, and others stated that the Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam lived after Noah aih alaihissalam. They reasoned:

1. Human words to Noah aih alaihissalam when asking for syafa’at:

“O Noah …! You are the first apostle that God sent for the inhabitants of the earth. “

Here it is clear that there were no apostles before Noah. So if the Prophet Idris was an apostle, then he could not have lived before Noah.

2. QS interpretation. An-Nisa: 163. Here the prophets are sorted after Noah aih alaihissalam, including Prophet Idris ‘alaihissalam, meaning the time after Noah‘ alaihissalam.

3. Sayings of Imam Al-Bukhari in his Saheeh that Prophet Idris ‘alaihissalam is the Prophet Ilyas‘ alaihissalam. And it is well known that the Prophet Ilyas aih alaihiss experienced his life after Noah.

4. Sayings of the Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam himself when meeting the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam in the fourth heaven (in the event mi’raj) (مرحبا بالنبي الصالح والأخ الصالح) (” Welcome to the pious Prophet and pious brother! “). if Prophet Idris aih alaihissalam live before Noah ‘alaihissalam. Of course he will say: (مرحبا بالنبي الصالح والأخ الصالح) (“Welcome O pious Prophet and pious child!”) As the Prophet Adam and Prophet Ibrahim ‘alaihissalam said.

There are more impartial opinions, including:

1. Ibn Hajar said, “Understanding that Noah as the first apostle was related to the inhabitants of the earth. Because in the time of Prophet Adam there were no inhabitants on this earth but only his family, so the apostleship of Prophet Adam was like an education for his children. It also implies that the apostleship of Noah was for his children and besides that it had spread in several regions. As for the Prophet Adam, his apostolate was only limited to his children and they were in one area only. As for the Prophet Idris there was a problem, because its existence before or after Noah was disputed. “(Fathul Bari, 6: 418)

2. Al-Qadhi Iyadh said, “If the Prophet Idris was the Prophet Ilyas of the Children of Israel then it means he lived after Noah, so it is true that Noah was the first prophet and apostle and Prophet Idris was also a prophet and apostle. As for the Prophet Adam and his son Syith, even though he was an apostle, but only limited to his children and his family; considering that at that time there were no infidels. Both teach faith and obey Allah Ta’ala. Another thing with Noah, he was sent to unbelievers who had begun to exist on earth. And this is perhaps the closest candidate that the Prophet Adam and Idris “Peace be upon him both are not an apostle but are both prophets.” (Syarh Muslim by Imam an-Nawawi, 3:55)

The Story of Prophet Solomon Slaughtering Horses Because of Allah, Then Allah Replaces them with A Wind that Is Submissive To Him

Allah Ta’ala said,

ووهبنا لداوود سليمان نعم العبد إنه أواب (30) إذ عرض عليه بالعشي الصافنات الجياد (31) فقال إني أحببت حب الخير عن ذكر ربي حتى توارت بالحجاب (32) ردوها علي فطفق مسحا بالسوق والأعناق (33)

“And We gave David, Solomon, his best servant. Surely he is very (to God). (Remember) when it was shown to him the horses that were calm at the time of stopping and fast when running in the afternoon, he said: “Surely I like the pleasure of good things (horses) so that I neglect to remember my Lord until the horse is gone from sight” . “Bring all the horses back to me.” Then he cut the horse’s legs and neck. “(Shaad: 30-33).

Allah mentioned, that He bestowed upon David the son named Solomon `alaihis salam. God praised Solomon that he returned to Him a lot, then God mentioned the matter about horses. Here’s the story:

Sulaiman `alaihis greetings once his love for horses is used jihad in the way of Allah. He has horses that are strong, fast and winged. The horses are 20 thousand. When he checked and arranged the horses, he missed the Ashar prayer because he forgot, not on purpose. When he learned that he had missed praying because of the horses, he swore, ‘No, for the sake of Allah, do not you (my horses) neglect me from worshiping my Lord. ‘Then he ordered that the horses be slaughtered. So he struck the horses’ necks and veins with a sword. When God found out that His servant Solomon was slaughtering the horses because of Himself, out of fear of His torment and because of His love and glorification, because he was busy with the horses so the prayer time was finished. For this reason, God then replaced him with something better than the horses, namely the wind that could blow with his orders, so that it would become the fertile area he passed, his journey a month and return a month. And of course, it’s faster and better than a horse. Therefore, it is true that the words of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam,

رنَّكَ لاَ تَدَعُ شَيْئًا إِتِّقَاءً لله تَعَالَى إِلاَّ أَعْطَاكَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ خَيْرًا مِنْهُ) رواه أحمد و البيهقي)

“Surely you do not leave something out of fear of Allah unless Allah will give you (something) better than it.” (Narrated by Ahmad and Al-Baihaqi, saheeh hadith).

Leaving Adultery, Then God Replaces it with Kingdom and Halal Woman

Allah mentioned the story of Yusuf bin Ya’kub ‘alaihis greetings in a complete letter. In it there are many lessons and benefits that are more than 1000 pieces. This noble prophet was tested by God with a very difficult test, but he was patient. And so that’s the condition of righteous people. Finally, the mihnah (exam) turned into a Minhah rabbaniyah (God’s gift). Here’s the story:

Ms. Yusuf `alaihis salam named Rahil. He has eleven brothers. His father loved Yusuf `alaihis salam. That was what later resulted in the envy of his other brothers. Because they are one group, one congregation. However, the father was so in love with Joseph and his brother Bunyamin. What happens next? They asked the father to let Joseph go with them. They pretended to show the desire for Joseph to shepherd with them, even though they hid something from it, which only Allah is omniscient. So they took Joseph, and they threw him into the old well. Then came the group of travelers. They lowered the bucket into the well and Joseph clung to it. Joseph was then sold to a king in Egypt. He was bought with only a few dirhams. (1) Then what happened next? God said, “And the woman (Zulaikha) that Joseph lived in his house tempted Joseph to bow himself (to him) and he closed the doors, saying, ‘Come here’. Joseph said, “I take refuge in Allah, truly my master has treated me well.” Surely the wrongdoers will not be lucky. Indeed, the woman had intended (to do this) with Joseph, and Joseph also intended (to do) with the woman had he not seen the sign (of) his Lord. Thus, so that We turn away from it evil and abomination. Indeed, Joseph is including our chosen servants. “(Joseph: 23-24).

Allah mentioned the temptation of the king’s wife to Yusuf `alaihis salam, and his request to Joseph was something that was inappropriate with his position and position. Namely the woman is at the peak of beauty, femininity, position and still very young. He then closed all the doors for only two. He was ready to surrender himself by wearing oversized clothes that were very beautiful. Even though he was a king’s wife. Whereas Yusuf `alaihis greetings at that time was a handsome and beautiful young man, in puberty, still a virgin and no one could replace him. He is far from his family and hometown. Whereas people who live in the midst of their families and friends will certainly be ashamed if they are known to have committed their abuses, so that their honor will fall in their view. However, if he is in a foreign country, then the obstacle is gone. Moreover, he was in the position of being asked, so the problem of the man who usually offered himself was lost, and his fear of not greeting was lost. And the woman is in her personal power and home, so she knows exactly when the time is right, and in a place where no one can see.

However, no matter what the opportunity is, Yusuf `alaihis salam actually keeps himself from being forbidden, Allah keeps it from doing evil because he is a descendant of the prophets. God keeps it from the deceit of the women. And Allah also replaced it with power on earth, wherever he wanted. God gave him the kingdom. Then, to her came the woman who had humbled herself before, asked and begged her to marry him lawfully, so Joseph married her. When the first night, Joseph said to him, “This is really better than what you used to want.”

O Muslims, meditate on it! How after he left the forbidden, Allah then replaced it with something better than him. Therefore, Yusuf `alaihis salam is the prince of the seven (classes) of the righteous and very noble princes. As mentioned in Shahihain from the closing of the prophets, sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam, from God all heaven and earth,

سبعة يظلهم الله في ظله يوم لا ظل إلا ظله: إمام عادل, ورجل ذكر الله خاليا ففاضت عيناه, ورجل قلبه معلق بالمسجد إذا خرج منه حتى يعود إليه, ورجلان تحاب في الله اجتمعا عليه وتفرقا عليه, ورجل تصدقا بصدقة فأخفاها حتى لا تعلم شماله ما تُنْفِقُ يُمِيُنُهُ ، وَشَابٌّ نَشَأَ فِي عِبَادَةِ اللهِ ، وَرَجُلٌ امْرَأَةٌ ذَاتُ مَنْصِبٍ وَجَمَالٍ فَقَالَ: إِنِّيْ أَخَافُ الله (رواه البخار ي ومسلم)

“There are seven (groups) who get the shade of God, when there is no shade except His shade; a just ruler, a man who remembers Allah alone then tears run down, a man whose heart is tied to the mosque when he comes out of it until he returns again, two people who love each other for Allah, they gather and separate because of Him, the man who hid his alms, so that his left hand did not know what was issued by his right hand, the young man who grew up (always) worshiped Allah and the man who was invited by a woman of rank and beauty (but) he said, ‘Truly I fear of God ‘. “

INFORMATION

(1) This is a summary of the story of the noble Prophet. Anyone who wants to know it in full should read and meditate on Joseph’s letter by referring to the interpretation of bil ma’tsur, especially the interpretation of Ibn Kathir and his date. Wallahu A’lam.

The Harmony of the Household of the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam

Under the auspices of an unpretentious household that’s where the wife lives, the hero behind the screen is carrying calm and coolness. The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam said,

“The world is full of pleasure. And the best of the world’s pleasures is the righteous wife. ”(See Shahih Jami’ Shaghir by Al-Albani)

Among the beauty of the character of the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam and the harmony of his household was to call ‘Ayesha radhiyallahu dengan anha with his beloved name and preach to him the news that made the soul seemed to hover.

Ayesha Radhiyallah ha anha said, “One day the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam said to him,‘ O isy Aisy (favorite vocation ‘Ayesha radhiyallahu‘ anha), the Angel Gabriel aih alaihissalam delivered greetings to you. “(Muttafaq‘ alaih)

Even his sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam as the Prophet of the people who was the most perfect of his morality and the highest degree has given a valuable example in terms of being good to his wife and in humility, as well as knowing women’s desires and jealousies. He sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam placed them in the position coveted by all women. That is to be a wife who has an honorable position beside her husband.

Ayesha radhiyallahu ha anha said, “One time I drank, and I was menstruating, then I gave my glass to the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam and he drank it from the mouth of the glass where I drank. On another occasion I ate a piece of meat, then he took the piece of meat and ate it right where I ate it. “(Narrated by Muslim)

He sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam was not as expected by the hypocrites or as alleged by the Orientalists with false accusations and false confessions. Even his sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam preferred the most beautiful and simple household ethics.

Narrated by yah Aisyah radhiyallahu ‘anha that he said,” The Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam once kissed one of his wives, then departed to perform prayer without renewing ablution ‘. “(Narrated by Abu Daud and Tirmidhi)

On various occasions, he always explained clearly the high position of women on his side. They womenfolk have a great position and a high degree. The Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam once answered the question ‘Amr bin Al-shAsh radhiyallah‘ anhu about this problem, he explained to him that loving a wife is not a taboo thing for a normal man.

Amr bin Al-shAsh radhiyallahu ‘anhu once asked the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wasallam, “Who is the person you love the most?” He replied, “‘ Aisha! “(Muttafaq‘ alaih)

Whoever craves the happiness of the household, let him pay attention to the stories of ‘Aisha radhiyallah ah anha with the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam. How are the tips of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam happy‘ Ayesha radhiyallahu ‘anha.

From yah Ayesha radhiyallahu ha anha he said, “I used to bathe together with the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam from one vessel.” (Narrated by Al-Bukhari)

The Prophet did not miss the slightest opportunity except he used it to make his wife happy and pleasing through things that were permissible.

Ayesha radhiyallah ‘he told,

At one point I joined the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam on a tour. At that time I was still a slim girl. He sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam ordered the group to move first. They departed before us. Then he said to me, “Come here! now we are running a race. “I went through it and finally I could surpass him. He sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam was just silent about my superiority earlier. Until another time, when I was rather fat, I joined him on a tour. He sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam ordered the group to move first. Then he challenged me to race again. And finally he can surpass me. He laughed as he said, “This is the last redeemer of defeat!” (Narrated by Ahmad)

Really! is a form of play that is very gentle and a very big concern. He ordered the group to leave first so that he could cheer his wife’s heart by asking him to run a race. Then he combined the past game with the new one, he said, “This is the last redeemer of defeat!”

For those who often travel around the world and pay attention to the circumstances of the people who are respected in each people, surely will be amazed at the actions of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam. He was a noble Prophet, a leader who was always victorious, a descendant of the noble tribe of the Quraysh and Banu Hashim. During moments of glory, he returned from a war with victory with a large group of troops. Even so, he was still a person of love and humility towards his wives the Ummahaatul Mukiminin radhiyallah h anhun. His position as leader of the army, the long journey taken, and the victory after victory achieved in the battlefield, did not make him forget that he was accompanied by the wives of weak women who desperately needed a gentle touch and spoiled whispers. In order to be able to remove the heavy burden of a very exhausting trip.

It is narrated by Imam Bukhari that when the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam returned from the battle of Khaibar, he married Shafiyyah binti Huyaiy radhiyallahu‘ anha. He sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam extended a curtain near the camel to be ridden to protect the Shafiyyah of Allah ‘anha from the view of people. Then he sat on his knees on the side of the camel, he invited the Shafiyyah of Allah to be ascended to the camel by resting on his knees.

A scene like this gives an impression that is so deep that shows his brotherhood. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) as a victorious leader and a Prophet who was sent gave an example to his people that behaving tadadhu to their wives, invited his knees as a foundation, helped with homework, pleased his wife, did not reduce his degree and position.

The Story of Prophet Moses and the Stone That Runs Out His Clothes

From Abu Hurairah, that the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said,” The Children of Israel used to bathe naked, each other saw each other’s limbs. But the Prophet Moses bathed alone. They say, ‘For God’s sake! There is nothing to forbid Moses from bathing with us except because he is sick, the testicles are large. ‘

At one time, Prophet Moses took a bath. The cloth was placed on a rock, then the stone ran away from the cloth of the Prophet Moses and he followed him while shouting, ‘Cain! Cain, O rock! ‘So, Bani Isaril could see (aurat) the Prophet Moses, then they said, ‘By Allah! Moses is not sick of anything. ‘Then the Prophet Moses took the cloth and struck the stone. “

Abu Hurairah said, “On the stone there are six or seven former punches.”

And the verse that relates to this story comes down,

يَآ أَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ ءَامَنُوْا لاَتَكُوْنُوْا كالَّذِيْنَ ءَاذَوْا مُوْسَى فَبَرَّأَهُ اللهُ مِمَّا قَالُوْا وَكَانَ عِنْدَ اللهِ وَجِيْهًا

“O believers, do not be like those who hurt Moses, so God cleanses them of the accusations they say. And he is a person who has a position with Allah. “(Surat al-Ahzab: 69) (Narrated by Al-Bukhari no. 278 and Muslim no. 2372)

Lessons to be learned:

In an emergency it is permitted to naked. As for the natural conditions, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam had said to Muawiyah ibn Al-Hakam,” Keep your nakedness except for your wife or slaves you have. “
When an emergency, such as treatment and others, is allowed to see other people’s genitals.
Allowed to bathe naked if alone, and the main thing is to use a cover.
Shari’a ummah before the Prophet Muhammad, which contradicted the Shari’a of Muhammad, did not become the Shari’a of Muhammad.
Prophets are human beings who are pure and perfect.
Prophets, like humans, have human characteristics, they can be angry and hit.
Describes the determination and patience of the prophets for the behavior of fools and their disturbances.
The virtue of shame. Shame is the noble character and nature of the prophets.

Prophet Maulud in Historical Review

The 12th of the early Rabi’ul has become one of the special days for some Muslims. Today is considered as the birth day of the end-time Prophet, the bearer of the minutes of perfection, the great Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu alaihi wa ‘alaa alihi wa sahbihi wa sallam. Celebration with various events ranging from recitation and congregation dhikr to games and competitions was held to enliven the commemoration of this special day. There are even among the groups of Tariqot who commemorate the Mawlid with dzikir and poems which contain excessive praise to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam. They believe that the spirit of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam the noble will come at the peak of the maulid event. Therefore, at the peak of the event the tariqot leader gave command to the dzikir participants to stand in order to welcome the arrival of the Prophet’s sallalla ‘alahi wa sallam who was only known by the leader of the Tariqot.

Really this kind of aqeedah is exactly the same as the aqeedah of the Hindu people who believe in the rise of ancestral spirits. But unfortunately some Muslims consider this as a form of worship. Inna lillaahi wa innaa ilaihi raaji’un, which other heresy is worse than this error …

When was the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam born?

In essence the historians disagreed in determining the history of the birth of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam, especially those related to the month, date, day, and place where the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alahi wa sallam was born.

First: Month of birth

The most famous opinion, he was born in the month of Rabi’ul Awal. And this is the opinion of the majority of scholars. Even said by Ibnul Jauzi as an agreement of scholars.

But there are some who argue that he was born on the month of Safar, Rabi’ul Akhir, and some even think that he was born on the 10th of Muharram (the day of Ashura). Then some others argue that he was born in Ramadan. Because the month of Ramadan is the month in which he received the first revelation and was appointed as a prophet. This opinion aims to fulfill the count of 40 years of his age sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam when he was appointed as a prophet.

Second: Date of birth

Mentioned in a hadith narrated by Mulim that the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam was once asked about fasting Monday. Then he replied: “Monday is the day I was born and the time I received a revelation.” But historians disagree about what date the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam was born. Among the opinions expressed were: Monday Rabi’ul Awal (without specified date), 2nd Rabi’ul Awal, 8th, 10th, 12th, 17th Rabiul Awal, and 8 days before the expiration of Rabi’ul Awal.

Stronger opinions

Based on the research of historians Muhammad Sulaiman Al Mansurfury and astronomer Mahmud Basya it was concluded that Monday morning which coincided with the beginning of the year of the events of the attack of elephant forces and 40 years after Kisra Anusyirwan’s power or coinciding with 20 or 22 April 571, Monday coincided with the 9th Rabi’ul Awal. (Ar Rahiqum Makhtum).

The date of his death

The scholars of history state that he died on Monday the 12th of Rabi’ul Beginning in 11H at the age of 63 years and four days.

One important note that we need to consider from the two historical facts above. Between determining the date of birth of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam and the date of his death sallallaahu‘ alahi wa sallam. This fact shows that the scholars did not pay much attention to the date of birth of the Prophet sallallaahu ahi alahi wa sallam. Because the determination of when he was born is not at all related to the law of Shari’ah. He was born indirectly to become a prophet, and there has been no revelation that came down when he was born. He was just sent as a prophet at the age of 40 years and over 6 months. This is different from the day of the death of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam, as if the scholars agreed that the day of his death was the 12th of Rabiul Beginning in 11 H. This was because his death was related to the law of shari’at. His death was the end of the revelation of Allah which came down. So that there is no new law that appears after his death sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam.

So if there is a question, the 12th Rabi’ul Awal was closer as the date of birth of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam or the date of his death Sallallaahu‘ alahi wa sallam ?? People who can understand history will say that the 12th Rabi’ul Awal was closer on the day of the death of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam. Because in the matter of the date of birth of the scholars of historians at loggerheads while in the matter of his death there was no dispute found.

After we understand this, we can draw the conclusion that the 12th Rabi’ul Awal which was commemorated as the birthday of the Prophet sallalla ahu alahi wa sallam was closer to the commemoration of the death of the noble Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam. Therefore, the attitude of most of the Muslims who had been commemorating the birthday of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam was actually similar to the actions of Christians in commemorating December 25. They assume that this is the date of Jesus’ birth even though history proves that Jesus was not possible to be born in December. For what reason do we want to celebrate 12 Rabi’ul Awal as a birthday celebration ??

The history of the emergence of Mawlid warnings

Historians say that the group that first held the maulid was the Bathiniyah group, which they named themselves as the Fatimids and claimed to be descendants of the Bait Expert (descendants of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam). It was stated that the inner group had 6 maulid warnings, namely the birthday of the Prophet sallallaahu ahi alahi wa sallam, maulid Ali bin Abi Talib radhiallahu ‘anhu, maulid Fatimah, maulid Hasan, maulid Husayn and maulid of their ruler. This Bathiniyah Daula only came to power at the beginning of the 4th century H. Therefore, the scholars agreed that the birthday of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam had only appeared in later times, after the end of the three-century mass which was most important in this ummah (al quruun al mufadholah ) This means that the memorial of this birthday has never existed at the time of the Prophet sallallaahu ahi alahi wa sallam and his companions, tabi’in and the Tabi ‘tabi’in. Al Hafid As Sakhawi said: “The commemoration of the birthday of the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alahi wa sallam has never been quoted from any previous generation of scholars who belong to the three main generations in Islam. But this warning happened after that time. “

In essence, the main purpose of this daulah commemorated the birthday of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam was in order to spread their aqeedah and heresy. They took the sympathy of the Muslims under the guise of the expert love of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam. (Dhahiratul Ihtifal bil Maulid An Nabawi by Abdul Karim Al Hamdan)

Who are the Fatimids

The Fatimids are a group of Shiites, followers of Ubaid bin Maimun Al Qoddah. They called themselves the Fatimids because they thought their leader was a descendant of the Fatimah daughter of the Prophet sallallaahu ahu alahi wa sallam. Although the original is a confession of lies. Therefore, a better name for them is Bani Ubaidiyah, not the Fatimids. This group has the notion of syi’ah rafidhah which opposes Ahlu Sunnah, from the time it was established until the time of its collapse. Ruling on the northern African continent for approximately two centuries. Starting from their success in breaking down the daughters of Bani Rustum in 297 AH and ending with their collapse in the hands of daulah Salahudin Al Ayyubi in 564 H. (Ad Daulah Al Fathimiyah by Ali Muhammad As Shalabi).

This Fatimid Daula has close relations with the Syi’ah Al Qaramithah Bathiniyah group. It should be noted that this Al Qaramithah Bathiniyah group has beliefs that are very deviant from Islamic teachings. Among them they want to eliminate the Shari’a Shari’a in Islam. Therefore, in the Hajj season of 317 H this group carried out chaos on the illegitimate land by massacring the pilgrims, tearing up the cloth covering the door of the Ka’bah, and seizing the hajj and keeping it in its area for 22 years. (Al Bidayah wan Nihayah by Ibn Kathir).

Who is Abu Ubaid Al Qoddah

His real name is Ubaidillah bin Maimun, the chewing of Abu Muhammad. It is known as Al Qoddah, which means striking, because this person likes to wear kohl so his eyes look striking. Originally he was a Jew who hated Islam and wanted to destroy the Muslims from within. He instilled inner aqeedah. Where each verse of the Qur’an has an inner meaning that is only known by special people among their groups. So he ruined the teachings of Islam on the grounds that there was an inner revelation that he received and was unknown to by others. (Al Ghazwul Fikr & Ad Daulah Al Fathimiyah by Ali Muhammad As Shalabi).

He was the founder and the first person to lead the Fatimids. His followers presented him with Al Mahdi Al Muntadhor (the Mahdi who was waiting for his arrival). Originally from Iraq and born in the Kufa region in 206 H. He claimed to be a descendant of one of the temple experts Ismail bin Ja’far As Sadiq through spiritual marriage (non-physical marriage). But the Muslims in the Maghrib area denied his confession. The truth is that he is a descendant of Said bin Ahmad Al Qoddah. And sometimes this person claimed to be the servant of Muhammad bin Ja’far As Shodiq. All this he did in order to attract human attention and seek the sympathy of the people. Therefore, it is not surprising that many of the fools in the African region justify themselves and make them leaders. (Al Bidayah wan Nihayah by Ibn Kathir & Ad Daulah Al Fathimiyah by Ali Muhammad As Shalabi).

The attitude of the scholars towards the Banu Ubaidiyah (Fatimid)

The ahlus sunnah scholars have affirmed the kafir’s bani status. Because of their deviant aqeedah. The scholars insist that they should not be behind their backs, they should not obey their bodies, there must be no inherited relations between them, they should not marry them, and other attitudes as they should be given to unbelievers. Among the Ahlus Sunnah scholars who were contemporaries of their age and expressly stated their disbelief was As Syaikh Abu Ishaq As Siba’i. In fact, he invited to fight them. Syaikh Al Faqih Abu Bakr bin Abdur Rahman Al Khoulani recounts:

“Syaikh Abu Ishaq along with other scholars had fought the children of Aduwillah (Banu Ubaidiyah) together with Abu Yazid. He gave a lecture in the presence of Abu Yazid’s army: lat They claimed to be Qiblah experts even though they were not Qibla experts, so we were obliged to be with these troops who were Qiblah experts to fight people who were not Qiblah experts (ie Banu Ubaidiyah) … ‘”

Among the scholars who participated in the war against the Ubaidis were Abul Arab bin Tamim, Abu Abdil Malik Marwan bin Nashruwan, Abu Ishaq As Siba’i, Abul Fadl, and Abu Sulaiman Rabi ‘Al Qotthan. (Ad Daulah Al Fathimiyah by Ali Muhammad As Shalabi).

After we understand the warning nature of maulid which is actually used as a means to spread the infidelity of the gods of Ubaidiyah … will we as Muslims who hate them preserve syi’ar people who are hostile to the teachings of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam ?? We need to know that celebrating maulid is not a manifestation of our love for the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam. Are not the friends, scholars of Tabi’in, and Tabi ’Tabi’in the people who love the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alahi wa sallam. But it is not recorded in history that they celebrated the birthday. Will we say they did not love the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam.

A poet said:

If your love is honest, of course you will obey it …
because the person who loves will obey the person he loves …

True love is not by celebrating someone’s birthday … but true love is proven by obedience to loved ones. And part of obedience to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam was by not doing an act that he did not teach.

Wallahu Waliyyut Taufiq

Noah and His People: The Bad Effects of Kufr Befall All Humans

It is narrated from Aisha, that the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said (which means), “If Allah is pleased to love someone from the people of Noah, surely (Allah) will love a baby.” The Messenger of Allah sallalla said (meaning), ‘Noah lived with his people for 950 years to preach to them. At the end of his life, he planted a tree so that the tree grew large. Then, Noah cut it down and made its wood as a boat board.

When the people of Noah passed before him, they asked about the wood. Then Noah answered, ‘I will use it to make a boat. They also mocked Noah, saying, ‘Are you going to assemble (make) a boat on land like this?’ Noah only replied, ak You will find out later! ’

After Noah finished making the boat and the surface of the earth emit water and stagnant water on the streets, there was a mother of a baby who was worried about the safety of her child because she loved her so much. Then the mother of the baby came out to the mountain, she managed to climb a third of the height of the mountain.

As soon as he saw the water reaching his height, he continued to climb until he reached the top of the mountain. After the water reaches the mother’s mouth, she raises her child (so as not to sink water), but the flood hits it too.

So, if God loved one of the people of Noah, surely God loved the mother of the baby. “

Lessons to be learned:

– Noah aih alaihis salam including people who prospered the earth. He lived for 950 years, was appointed as a Prophet at the age of 40 years. Throughout his 950 years, he spent on preaching. Then he was still alive after a typhoon.
– Noah was the first person to make a ship.
– He advised to work whatever is halal, without putting aside trust in God.
-It is possible for God to bring punishment with cause (silence) the perpetrators of sin, because there is a benefit that we do not know.
-Describes the bad consequences of the nature of kufr and disbelief, that is, it can cause the decline of the punishment in the world before the Hereafter punishment is given.
-Unbelievers do not get the love of Allah as given to believers.

Panning Benefit from the Story of Prophet Syuaib aih Alaihissalam

God appointed Syu’aib aih alaihissalam to be a Prophet and sent him to the land of Madyan. The crimes committed by the residents of Madyan not only carried out shirk but also cheated on the scales and measures. Also commit fraud in making prayers and reducing the rights of others. Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam invited them to worship only Allah alone and forbade them to do shirk. He also ordered that they do justice and honesty in making prayers, and reminded them not to harm others.

Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam reminded his people of the goodness that Allah bestowed upon them in the form of various sustenance. In fact, with all that, they do not need to tyrannize humans in matters of wealth. The Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam also threatened with adzab who surrounded them in the world before the hereafter. But they welcomed him with ridicule and refused the call while mocking.

They said,

يا شعيب أصلاتك تأمرك أن نترك ما يعبد آباؤنا أو أن نفعل في أموالنا ما نشاء إنك لأنت الحليم الرشيد

“Hi Shu’aib, does your prayer (your religion) tell you that we leave what our fathers worship or forbid us to do what we want about our assets. Surely you are a very supportive person who has understanding. “(Hud: 87)

Namely, we will still endure worshiping what our fathers worship. And we will continue to act on our assets with the various forms of muamalat that we want, not under the rules or provisions of Allah and His messengers.

Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam said (as Allah said),

قَالَ يَاقَوْمِ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُ عَلىَ بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّيْ وَرَزَقَنِيْ مِنْهُ رِزْقًا حَسَنًا

“O my people, what do you think if I have real evidence from my Rabb and bestowed upon me good rizki (should I violate his command?” (Hud: 88)

That is, that Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala has provided me (with His sustenance).

Word of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala,

وَمَا أُرِيْدُ أَنْ اُخَالِفَكُمْ إِلَى مَا أَنْهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ إِنْ أُرِيْدُ إِلاَّ اْلإِصْلاَحَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُ

“And I will not wrong you (by doing) what I forbid.” (Hud: 88)

Namely, not I forbid you from a variety of bad muamalat and in it there are acts that abuse the people, but I am the first person to leave it, even though Allah has given me wealth and expanded sustenance for me. And I really need this muamalat connection. However, I am bound by the obligation to obey my Rabb. I do not mean by this action and my command to you except bring improvement. That is, as much as I can, I will try to make your world and the afterlife good.

وَمَا تَوْفِيْقِيْ إِلاَّ بِاللهِ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْهِ أُنِيْبُ

“And there is no taufik for me but with (help) Allah. Only to God will I surrender and only to Him will I return. “(Hud: 88)

Then, he threatened them with the torment that had befallen the people of the time and place around them.

Word of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala,

لا يجرمنكم شقاقي أن يصيبكم مثل ما أصاب قوم نوح أو قوم هود أو قوم صالح وما قوم لوط منكم ببعيد

“Let no contradiction between me (with you) cause you to persecute, so that you will be overtaken by adzab as happened to Noah or Hud or the Salih, while the Lutites did not (also) far from you.” (Hud: 89)

He offered them to repent and arouse their desire to repent. Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam said, as the word of God,

وَاسْتَغْفِرُوْا رَبَّكُمْ ثُمَّ تُوْبُوْا إِلَيْهِ إِنَّ رَبِّي رَحِيْمٌ وَدُوْدٌ

“And ask forgiveness from your Rabb then repent to Him. Surely my Rabb is Merciful, Merciful. “(Hud: 90)

But all those calls don’t have the slightest rule. They said,

مَا نَفْقَهُ كَثِيْرًا مِمَّا تَقُوْلُ

“We don’t understand much of what you say.” (Hud: 91)

These words are clear because of their stubbornness and enormous hatred of the truth.

وَإِنَّا لَنَرَاكَ فِيْنَا ضَعِيْفًا وَلَوْلاَ رَهْطُكَ لَرَجْمَنَاكَ وَمَا أَنْتَ عَلَيْنَا بِعَزِيْزٍ

“And indeed we really saw you someone who was weak among us; if not because your family must have stoned you, you are not an authority on our side either. “(Hud: 91)

And the word of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala,

قلالَ يَاقَوْمِ أَرَهْطِي أَعَزُّ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنَ اللهِ وَاتَّخَذْتُمُوهُ وَرَاءَكُمْ ظِهْرِيًّا إِنَّ رَبِّي بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ مُحِيْطٍ

“Syu’aib replied,” O my people, is my family more honorable in your view than Allah, whereas Allah has made you wasted behind you? Indeed, my Rabb covers what you do. ‘”(Hud: 92)

And when he saw their violence, he said:

ويا قوم اعملوا على مكانتكم إني عامل سوف تعلمون من يأتيه عذاب يخزيه ومن هو كاذب وارتقبوا إني معكم رقيب

“And (he said),‘ O my people, do according to your ability, in fact I will also do. Later you will find out who will be overwritten by adzab who humiliates him and who lies. And wait (adzab Allah), in fact I will wait with you. ‘And when Our Adz came, We saved Shu’aib and those who believed with Him with mercy from Us. And those who were wronged were destroyed by a thunderous voice, and they died in their houses. “(Hud: 93-94)

Then God sent a great heat to those who blocked their breathing so they almost suffocated because of the enormity. At that time, God sent a cold cloud that overshadowed them, then they called to shelter under it. After they gathered beneath it, suddenly a great flame arose and burned them so that they died in adzab, humiliation and curses of all time.

Some lessons

1. To harm scales and doses specifically or to harm humans in general is a crime that deserves adzab in the world and the hereafter.

2. Disobedience that happens to someone who actually does not have a motivating factor in him and does not have the intention to disobey him, his sin is greater than someone who is mocked by a desire or need. Therefore, adultery carried out by an old man or a person who has been married, is far worse than zina by a young man or a person who has never been married.

3. Likewise pride in the self of the (poor) person is far worse than the pride possessed by someone who has assets. Likewise, theft carried out by people who actually do not need the stolen property is far greater than the theft carried out by people who really need their stolen property. Because of this, the Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam said as stated in the verse,

إِنِّيْ أَرَاكُمْ بِخَيْرٍ

“Surely I see you in a good condition.” (Hud: 84)

Namely, you are in a state of abundant pleasure and pleasure, so what really drives you so that you are greedy for what is in the hands of men in a way that is forbidden?

4. Another lesson, says Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta’ala,

بَقِيَّةُ اللهِ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ

“The rest (profit) of God is better for you.” (Hud: 86)

In it there is an urge to be willing with what God gives, feel enough with the lawful and (stay away from) the unclean, limit the view to one’s own property and do not need to look at human property.

5. In this story, there is a proposition that prayer is the cause of the implementation of a good and leaving it is a mockery and the fulfillment of advice for fellow servants of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala.

Unbelievers know that as they say to the Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam, the word of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala tells of their words,

أَصَلاَتُكَ تَأْمُرُكَ أَنْ نَتْرُكَ مَا يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا أَوْ أَنْ نَفْعَلَ فِيْ أَمْوَالِنَا مَا نَشَاءِ إِنَّكَ لأَنْتَ الْحَلِيْمُ الرَّشِيْدُ

“Does your prayer tell you to leave what is worshiped by our fathers or forbid us to do what we want about our property. Surely you are a very supportive person who has understanding. “(Hud: 87)

And the word of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala,

إِنَّ الصَّلاَةَ تَنْهَى عَنِ الْفَحْشَاءِ وَالْمُنْكَرِ

“Verily, the prayer prevents from (deeds) vile and disastrous.” (Al-‘Anabut: 45)

From here, it is known the wisdom and grace of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala why He obliged this prayer to us five times a night, (ie) because of its high value and how great its benefits and very beautiful influence. All perfect praise is only for God for all that pleasure.

6. A human being in each of his movements and in bermuamalat the problem of property is under the provisions of Sharia law. So what is permissible is what must be done and what is forbidden by the Shari’a must be abandoned.

Whoever thinks he is free to do his property in making good or bad ways, then the situation is the same as the person who considers the practice or movements of his body to be free is not bound by the rules of the Shari’a. Thus, it makes no difference according to him between paganism and faith, honesty and lies, good and bad deeds, all may be.

Of course, it is clear to us that this is the school of thought (opinion and belief) of the people of Ibahiyyin (who consider everything altered or halal), and they are as evil as evil creatures. And the schools of the people of the Prophet Syu’aib are not much different from this school. Because they deny the Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam which forbids them from the dzalim muamalat, and allows the muamalat besides that. They opposed it because they thought they were free to do anything about their property. Just as this is the words of the people mentioned by God in His word,

إِنَّمَا الْبَيْعُ مِثْلُ الرِّبَا

“Indeed, buying and selling is the same as usury.” (Al-Baqarah: 275)

So, whoever equates between that which is lawful and forbidden by Allah means that he has deviated from his nature and reason, after he has also made a deviation from his religion.

7. People who give advice to others, order (good) and forbid them (from ugliness), so that perfect human acceptance of his advice, then if he orders a good, let him be the first person to do the good. And if he forbids them from an accident, then let him be the first to leave and get away from him.

That is what the Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam said as the word of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala,

وَمَا أُرِيْدُ أَنْ أُخَالِفَكُمْ إِلَى مَا أَنْهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ

“And I will not wrong you (by doing) what I forbid.” (Hud: 88)

8. The prophets were sent by bringing good and to improve, and prevent the occurrence of crime and damage. Then all the goodness and improvement in the affairs of religion and the world are the teachings of the prophets, especially the priests and the closing of the prophets, namely the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. He has revealed and reiterated this main foundation and has also laid the foundations of great merit, where they walk on it in various worldly affairs, as well as he has laid the main foundations in religious affairs.

9. Basically it is mandatory for each person to strive seriously in goodness and improvement, then it is also obligatory for him to ask for help from his Rabb in that endeavor. And so that he knows that he is unable to do or perfect it except with the help of Allah, as the Prophet Syu’aib ‘alaihissalam said, as in the words of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala,

وَمَا تَوْفِيْقِيْ إِلاَّ بِاللهِ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْهِ أُنِيْبُ

“And there is no taufik for me but with (help) Allah. Only to God will I surrender and only to Him will I return. “(Hud: 88)

10. A da’i who invites people to return to Allah is in desperate need of courtesy, good morals and the ability to compensate for bad words and deeds directed at him by the opposite deed. And it is appropriate that he does not care about the disturbances of others and does not prevent them at all from his appeal. Such morality is the most perfect only in the apostles shalawatullah wa salamuhu aih alaihim.

So, pay attention to the situation of the Prophet Syu’aib aih alaihissalam and his moral glory with his people. How he invites his people in all kinds of ways, while they actually speak to them bad words and reply to those calls with vile deeds. He aih alaihissalam still showed courtesy, forgiving them and talking to them with sentences that did not come out of people like him other than kindness.

Such morals are the morals of those who succeed and have great luck. And of course the owner has a noble position and eternal enjoyment with Allah. So with this, it becomes easy for him to treat the people who have so damaged their morals, (which for others) is a very difficult matter and even more difficult than trying to dismantle a mountain from the bottom.

Meanwhile his people are constantly immersed in broken beliefs and thoughts and even they exert all of their wealth, soul and body to prioritize and exaggerate above all else.

Do you think that people like them will feel quite satisfied just by saying that their beliefs and thoughts are wrong and corrupt? Or do you think that they will forgive people who berate them and insult their beliefs? Not once, for God’s sake.

In fact they really need various ways to improve their beliefs, and that is only the way the apostles call for it. Where the apostles reminded people of the blessings of Allah and that the One who alone gave them pleasure was the one who actually had the right to receive worship, whatever its form. Also the apostles mentioned to them various detailed pleasures and could not be counted by anyone except Allah.

The apostles also reminded that in their convictions and convictions there were damage and irregularities, shocks and conflicts which could damage the faith or faith that pushed to be abandoned.

The apostles also reminded people of the days of God that were before and behind them and His torment that had befallen the people who belied the apostles, denied the monotheism. They reminded that only by believing in Allah and in His belief will get good and benefit and benefit in religion and the world, which of course will attract anyone’s heart and make it easy to reach all goals.

With all this, someone needs a good attitude towards them and at a minimum is to be patient with the disturbances and all the evil that arises from them and always say softly with them. And the need to also strive for all the ways that contain wisdom and dialogue with them in various matters by fulfilling a portion of what is permitted (accepted) their souls to perfect.

11. Also pay attention to the need to prioritize the most important things then the next. And the greatest effort to carry out all this is the closing of the prophets and priests of all these creatures, namely the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.
