Hari-hari terakhir Ramadan

You'd feel it in your bones, yah? The sense of Ramadan leaving.

My surau pun mcm in slow motion mode.The Ustaz from Segambut was harping on working on mendapat hidayah based on his interpretation of al fatihah's tunjukkan aku jalan yg lurus dan bukan jalan sesat.Pretty nice.Using Qardawi's argument, he said hidayah ni boleh kita dapat dari 4 cara yakni secara tabii..a given mcm tak perlu ajar, kita tau sendiri.Mengambil contoh lembu sakit perut..dia tau mcmana nak ubat sendiri ( yakni makan tanah liat) or baby tau menyusu tanpa diajar.Point ke 2 hidayah ni melalui akal; next melalui agama and finally melalui pencapaian kemahiran.Qardawi advised to go for hidayah melalui agama cos' agama will correct akal.Also to go for pencapaian kemahiran...er..I tak berapa faham part ni..but I guess it'd be a combination between experience and skill/ilmu.Close to enlightenment gamaknya like some non muslim scientists or scholars dpt hidayah masuk islam melalui kemahiran bidang mereka.Wallahualam.

Cerita sampingan which I liked this evening : perihal how Saidina Abu Bakar kerana imannya yg tebal would be the first to believe whtever tht came from the Prophet pbuh contoh: peristiwa yg tak terjangka oleh akal seperti Israk Mikraj.He didn't hear it from the Prophet pbuh mula2nya.Abu Lahab yg bwk mulut dgn harapan Abu Bakr would debunk the 'new religion' as ridiculous.But apa kata Abu Bakar As Siddiq? Mana kamu dapat berita ini? Abu Lahab: dari Muhammad..aku dengar sendiri.Abu Bakar: jika dari Muhammad, lebih dari ini, aku percaya tapi jika dari engkau, selamat jalan (lebihkurang gitu lah skripnya).

Ustaz kata begitulah iman kalau dah tahap tinggi.Wht cannot be seen or explained by akal would be readily accepted.Then he went on about ibadah gone wrong..kalau kita masih buat maksiat..beli ekor, kaki perempuan (kaki lelaki I must add) dan membuat apa yg dilarang oleh Allah maka we should reassess ibadah kita..masih ada yg tak betul..and he went back to that verse tunjukkan aku jalan yang lurus recited in al fatihah tu tadi.

Nampak simple, kan? But we know it is a continuous effort to stay on the straight path. I guess this is what differentiates between being manusia yg Allah beri akal dan hidayah and animal yg hidup based on instincts sahaja.

Malam ni takda gelak ketawa.Ustaz Segambut ni gentle but firm.
