Belief in the Last Day and Resurrection

The Last Day is that enormous event when everyone will be resurrected from death to the accounting and reckoning to be asked about their deeds: to receive either reward for their good deeds or punishment for their evil deeds. It is called “the Last Day” because it is the final day and the end of earthly time. This is the day when the people of Paradise will go to their appointed places in Paradise and those of Hell to the Hellfire.
Belief in the Last Day and Resurrection comprises three aspects:

1. To believe in the resurrection after death. Resurrection will take place when the Trumpet will be blown [by Israafeel] for the second time [the first being for the death of all living creatures]. Humankind will awaken to face the Lord of the Worlds. They all will stand bare-footed completely naked and uncircumcised before their Lord as Allah the Most Exalted said:
   As We began the first creation so shall We repeat it (it is) a promise binding upon Us. Truly We shall do it. [Surah al-Anbiyaa’ (21):104].
   The Resurrection is an affirmed truth proven by the Qur’an the Sunnah and the unanimous agreement and consensus (Ijmaa’) of all the Muslims. Allah the Exalted said:
   Then verily you will be dead after that. Then verily you will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment. [Surah al-Mu’minoon (23):15-16]
   And the Prophet () said in a hadeeth agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim:
   People will be gathered together on the Day of Judgment barefooted and uncircumcised.
   All the Muslims are in agreement affirmed the Resurrection. The Day of Resurrection and Accounting is necessitated by the wisdom of Allah to make a final time to judge everyone according to that which they are accountable. Allah the Most Exalted said:
   Did you think that We had created you in play (without any purpose) and that you would not be brought back to Us? [Surah al-Mu’minoon (23):115]
   And He the Exalted said to the Messenger of Allah ():
   Verily He Who has given you the Qur’an (O Muhammad) will surely bring you back to the place of return. [Surah al-Qasas (28):85].
2. To believe in the reckoning of the deeds and reward or punishment accordingly. This is proven through the Book of Allah the Qur’an the Sunnah and consensus of the Muslims. The slaves of Allah will all be reckoned and recompensed for their deeds. Allah the Most Exalted said:
   Verily to Us will be their return. Then verily for Us will be their Reckoning. [Surah al-Ghaashiyah (88):25-26]
   And He said:
   Whoever brings a good deed shall have ten times the like thereof to his credit and whoever brings an evil deed shall have only the recompense of the like thereof and they will not be wronged. [Surah al-An’aam (6):160]
   And He said:
   And We shall set up balances of justice on the Day of Resurrection then none will be dealt with unjustly in anything. And if there were the weight of a mustard seed We will bring it and Sufficient are We as Reckoners. [Surah al-Anbiyaa’ (21):47]
   Abdullah ibn Umar () narrated that the Prophet() said:
   Allah will bring the believer closer to Him and will shield him from being exposed (for his evil deeds in front of everyone). He will say “Do you remember such and such sin? Do you remember such and such sin?” He will say “Yes O my Lord!” When Allah gets this confession for his sins and the believer thinks that his destruction is upon him Allah will say “I have preserved you from being exposed in front of others for these evil deeds during your lifetime and I am forgiving them for you today.” So he will be given his record of good deeds. As for the disbelievers and the hypocrites they will be called openly in public: “These are the ones who lied against their Lord! Verily Allah’s curse is upon the unjust ones!” (Reported by al-Bukhari and Muslim)
   And in an authentic hadeeth the Messenger of Allah () said:
   …if somebody intends to do a good deed and he does not do it then Allah will write for him a full good deed. If he intends to do a good deed and he actually does it then Allah will write with Him from ten to seven hundred times to many more times (reward). If somebody intends to do a bad deed and he does not do it Allah will write a full good deed with Him. If somebody intends to do bad deed and actually did it then Allah will write one bad deed (in his account). (Reported by al-Bukhari and Muslim.)
   Muslims are unanimous in agreement that the Day of Reckoning and the Judgment will come since both logic and wisdom point to it. According to the infinite Wisdom of Allah all people must be judged a final decisive judgment. Allah revealed the Scriptures and sent the Messengers only that they should be accepted and followed. Moreover Allah obligated the believers to fight against those who oppose the Scriptures and the Messengers and He permitted that their blood be shed and their children women and possessions be seized] according to the strict laws of war]. If there were not a final Day of Reckoning then all these matters would have been in vain! Allah the All-Wise is far removed from such an imperfection and contradiction.
   Allah has indicated this line of argument in His saying:
   Then surely We shall question those to whom the Book was sent and verily We shall question the Messengers. Then surely We shall narrate unto them (their whole story) with knowledge and indeed We were not absent. [Surah al-A’raaf (7):6-7]
3. To believe in Paradise and Hellfire and that they are the final and everlasting abode for the creatures (men and jinn).
   Paradise is the final resting place of ultimate happiness and joy that Allah has prepared for the believers who feared Him believed in Him and sincerely obeyed Him and His Messenger who brought the message. Paradise is described as a place of unimaginable bounties and pleasures which “no eye has ever seen nor an ear ever heard of nor a mind has ever imagined.”
   Allah the Most Exalted said:
   Verily those who believe and do righteous deeds they are the best of creatures. Their reward with their Lord is Gardens of Eternity underneath which rivers flow wherein they will abide forever; Allah is Well-Pleased with them and they with Him. That is for him who fears his Lord. [Surah al-Bayyinah (98):7-8]
   And Allah the Most Exalted said:
   No person knows what is kept hidden for them of joy as a reward for what they used to do. [Surah as-Sajdah (32):17]
   Hellfire is the final destination of torment and punishment that Allah has prepared for the disbelievers the unjust (criminals) those who disbelieved in Allah and disobeyed the Messengers.
   Hellfire contains all kinds of unimaginable punishments and torments. Allah the Most Exalted said:
   And fear the Fire which is prepared for the disbelievers. [Surah Aali ‘Imraan (3):131]
   And He said:
   We have prepared for the wrongdoers a Fire whose walls will be surrounding them. If they ask for help they will be granted water like boiling oil that will scald their faces. Terrible is the drink and what an evil dwelling! [Surah al-Kahf (18):29]
   And He said:
   Verily Allah has cursed the disbelievers and prepared for them a flaming Fire wherein they will abide forever; and they will find neither a protector nor a helper. On the Day when their faces will be turned and rolled from all sides in the Fire they will say: “Oh would that we had obeyed Allah and obeyed the Messenger (Muhammad).” [Surah al-Ahzaab (33):64-66]

All that happens after death is included in the belief of the Last Day for example:

1. The trial of the grave wherein all will be asked: Who was your Lord? What was your religion? Who was your prophet?
   So as is explained in the Qur’an and Sunnah Allah will make those who believed resolute with the word that stands firm. Thus the believer will say: “My Lord is Allah my religion is Islam and my Prophet is Muhammed.” But the transgressors will err and go astray. The disbeliever will say: “Haah haah I don’t know.” The hypocrite or the person in doubt1 will say: “I’m not sure I heard the people say something so I just repeated what they said.”
2. The grave will be a place of either extreme pain and torment or extreme pleasure and happiness.
   The pain and torment will be upon the transgressors disbelievers and hypocrites as Allah the Most Exalted said:
   And if you but see when the wrongdoers are in the agonies of death while the angels are stretching forth their hands (saying): “Deliver your souls; this day you shall be recompensed with the torment of degradation because of what you used to utter against Allah untruthfully. And you used to reject his signs with disrespect.” [Surah al-An’aam (6):93]
   And Allah the Most Exalted said concerning Pharaoh and his followers:
   The Fire – they will be exposed to it morning and afternoon and on the Day when the Hour will be established (it will be said to the angels): “Make Pharaoh’s people to enter the severest Torment.” [Surah Ghaafir (40):46]
   Imam Muslim reports that Zaid ibn Thabit () narrated:
   The Prophet said to his Companions “I would have asked Allah to let you hear what I am hearing of the (peoples’) punishment in the grave but (I refrain) for the fear that you would not bury each other after that.” Then the Prophet peace and blessings of Allah be upon him turned his face towards them saying: “Seek refuge in Allah from the torment of the Fire!” They said: “We seek refuge in Allah from the torment of the Fire.” He said: “Seek refuge in Allah from the torment of the grave!” They said: “We seek refuge in Allah from the torment of the grave.” He said: “Seek refuge in Allah from all calamities whether apparent or hidden!” They said “We seek refuge in Allah from all calamities whether apparent or hidden.” He said: “Seek refuge in Allah from the calamity of one-eyed Antichrist (False Messiah)!” They said “We seek refuge in Allah from the calamity of one-eyed Antichrist (False Messiah).”
   The extreme pleasure and happiness of the grave will be for the faithful and truthful believers. Allah the Most Exalted said:
   Verily those who say “Our Lord is Allah” and then stood fast on these words on them the angels will descend (at the time of their death saying) “Fear not nor grieve! But receive the glad tidings of Paradise which you have been promised.” [Surah Fussilat (41):30]
   And Allah the Most Exalted said:
   Then why do you not (intervene) when (the soul of a dying person) reaches the throat (gurgling)? And you are at the moment looking on (hopelessly)? But We (our angels who take the soul) are nearer to him than you are but you do not see. Then why do you not if you are exempt from the reckoning and recompense bring back the soul (to its body) if you are truthful? Then if he (the dying person) be of those near ones (close to Allah) there is for him rest and provisions and a Garden of Delights (Paradise). [Surah al-Waqi’ah (56):83-89]
   It is reported on the authority of al-Baraa ibn ‘Aazib that the Prophet () said about the believer after he is responds to the questioning by the angels:
   A caller from heaven will say “My slave has said the truth. Therefore furnish him (in his grave) from (the pleasures of) Paradise and dress him from (the clothes of) Paradise and open a door for him to Paradise.” Then he said “He will receive from its tranquility and beautiful smell. And his grave will be enlarged for him as far a distance as his sight reaches.”
   This is reported by Imam Ahmad and Abu Dawood in a long hadeeth [of which only a portion has been mentioned].

The great benefits of believing in the Last Day and Resurrection include:

1. Encouraging the desire to do the deeds of obedience hoping for the bliss and reward of Paradise.
2. Being terrified of committing deeds of disobedience fearing the punishment of the Hellfire.
3. Comforting the believer about the pleasures and luxuries that he misses in this worldly life and the hardships and pains he endures in the hope for the bliss and reward of the Paradise.
   [Some] disbelievers do not believe that life after death is possible. The falseness of their doubt about the possibility of life after death can be established by: ash-Sharee’ah (revelation and scripture) al-Hiss (physical senses) and al-’Aql (reason and analysis).
   Proving the possibility of life after death by ash-Sharee’ah (revelation and scripture) Allah the Most Exalted said:
   The disbelievers pretend that they will never be resurrected (for the account). Say (O Muhammad): “Yes! By my Lord you will certainly be resurrected then you will be informed (and recompensed for) what you did and that is easy for Allah.” [Surah at-Taghaabun (64):7]
   All Scriptures [like the Torah Psalms and Gospels] are unanimous on this matter (of belief in the Hereafter).

Proving the possibility of life after death by al-Hiss (physical senses):
To illustrate to us this possibility Allah has given us stories of past events when people saw with their own eyes (and physical senses) how He raised the dead to life. There are five examples given in the second chapter of the Qur’an in Surah al-Baqarah:

1. The story of the people of Musaa when they said to him “We will not believe in you unless we see Allah openly without a barrier” and thus they were seized by death. Thereafter Allah resurrected them and said to admonish them and all the Children of Israel with this story
   And (remember) when you said “O Musaa! We shall never believe in you till we see Allah plainly.” But you were seized with a thunderbolt (and lightening) while you were looking. Then We raised you up after your death so that you might be grateful. [Surah al-Baqarah (2):55-56]
2. The story of the murdered man among the Children of Israelwhen they argued about determining who the murderer was. Allah ordered them to sacrifice a cow and strike the corpse with a part of it so that he can come to life to tell them about the killer. Allah the Most Exalted said about this case:
   And (remember) when you killed a man and fell into dispute among yourselves as to the crime. So Allah brought forth that which you were hiding. So We said “Strike him (the dead man) with a piece of it (the cow).” Thus Allah brings the dead to life and shows you His signs so that you may understand. [Surah al-Baqarah (2):72-73]
3. The story of the group that ran away from their homes fearing death even though they were thousands and could have stood up to their enemies. Allah struck them dead in their tracks and then brought them back to life. Relating this story Allah Most Exalted said in the Qur’an:
   Did you (O Muhammad) not think of those who went forth from their homes in thousands fearing death? Allah said to them: “Die!” And then He restored them to life. Truly Allah is full of Bounty to mankind but most men thank not. [Surah al-Baqarah (2):243].
4. The story of the man who passed by a dead and deserted village and wondered how Allah would be able to resurrect them. Allah struck him dead for a hundred years and then raised him up again. Relating this story Allah Most Exalted said:
   Or like the one who passed by a town all in utter ruins. He said “Oh! How will Allah ever bring it to life after its death?” So Allah caused him to die for a hundred years then raised him up. He said “How long did you remain (dead)?” He [the man] replied “Perhaps I remained (dead) a day or a part of a day.” He said “Nay you have remained for a hundred years; look at your food and your drink they show no change; and look at your donkey! And thus We have made of you a Sign for the people. And look at the bones how We bring them together and clothe them with flesh.” When this was clearly shown to him he said “I Know (now) that Allah is Able to do all things.” [Surah al-Baqarah (2):259]
5. The story of Ibraheem () who asked Allah to show him how He resurrects the dead. Allah ordered him to slaughter four birds cut them in pieces and spread these pieces to various mountains. Then He told him to call these dead birds and when he did they came back to him flying. On this Allah the Most Exalted said:
   And (remember) when Ibraheem said “My Lord! Show me how You give life to the dead.” Allah said “Do you not believe?” Ibraheem said “Yes but to be stronger in faith.” He said “Take four birds then cause them to incline towards you (to slaughter them and cut them into pieces) and then put a portion of them on every hill and call them they will come to you in haste. And know that Allah is All-Mighty All-Wise.” [Surah al-Baqarah (2):260]
   These five historically authentic examples which were physically experienced prove that the dead can rise back to life by the Will of Allah. The fact that ‘Eesaa raised the dead from their graves by the Will of Allah has already been mentioned above.

Proving the possibility of life after death al-Aql (reason and analysis):
Two rational arguments can be presented here:
The first argument is that Allah is the Original Creator of all the creation and thus He who is capable of the first creation is also capable of re-creation which is even simpler. Allah the Most Exalted said:
And it is He Who originates the creation then He will repeat it (after it has been perished) and this is easier for Him. [Surah ar-Room (30):27]
And Allah the Most Exalted said:
As We brought (into existence) the first creation We shall repeat it (it is) a promise binding upon Us. Truly We shall do it. [Surah al-Anbiyaa’ (21):104]
And Allah the Most Exalted said to those who deny that Allah can restore decayed bones:
Say (O Muhammad) “He will give life to them Who created them for the first time! And He is the All-Knower of every creation.” [Surah Yaa-Seen (36):79]
The second argument is that we observe the earth lifeless and barren from lack of rain. Allah sends the rains and then we observe the soil coming back to life and various kinds of plants spring forth green and flourish. So the One Who brings life back to the dead earth and makes the plants flourish is able also to raise the dead animals back to life. Allah the Most Exalted said:
And among His Signs you see the earth barren but when We send down water (rain) to it it is stirred to life and growth (of vegetation). Verily He Who gives it life surely is able to give life to the dead. Indeed! He is able to do all things. [Surah Fussilat (41):39]
And He said:
And We send down blessed water (rain) from the sky then We produce therewith gardens and grains of all harvests that are reaped; and tall date palms with ranged clusters; provisions for (Allah’s) slaves. And We give life therewith to dead land. Thus will be the Resurrection (of the dead). [Surah Qaaf (50):9-11]
Some misguided people say that the punishment or bliss in the grave is not possible since it is against the reality we see when we open the graves and find the decomposed corpses. They say that we do not find that the grave has expanded its size or grown narrow as some hadeeth mention.
This claim of theirs is invalid by proofs of ash-Sharee’ah (revelation and scripture) al-Hiss (physical senses) and al-Aql (reason and analysis).
Proving the possibility of punishment or bliss in the grave by ash-Sharee’ah (revelation and scripture):
Some of the proofs have been mentioned above. One other proof that is reported by al-Bukhari is the narration of Abdullah ibn Abbaas () when he said
The Prophet passed by some walls in Madeenah and heard the screams of two persons who were being punished in their graves. He mentioned the reasons behind this punishment saying “One of them did not protect himself (spoiling his clothes) from urine. The other one used to spread gossip.”
Proving the possibility of punishment or bliss in the grave by al-Hiss (physical senses):
Sometimes we sense ourselves in our dreams that we are in a huge expanse or extremely constricted and confined feeling the pain of being squeezed and the fear of claustrophobia. Sometimes we are even jerked awake from these nightmares only to find ourselves sitting in our beds. Sleep is the twin of death and this is why Allah calls it a type of “Wafaat” (fulfillment appointed time of death and its like) as Allah the Most Exalted said:
It is Allah Who takes away the souls at the time of their death and those that die not during their sleep. He keeps those (souls) for which He had ordained death and sends the others (back) for a term appointed. Verily in this are signs for a people who think deeply. [Surah az-Zumar (39):42]
Proving the possibility of punishment or bliss in the grave by “al-‘Aql” (reason and analysis):
Sometimes a person sees a dream that becomes true and conforms to exact events and traits of the real world. For example one might see the Prophet () in their dreams. Whoever sees the Prophet in the shape that he is described in the books of hadeeth we know has truly seen him even though the sleeper is simply in his room on his bed far away from what he is seeing. If this is the case in matters of the physical world wouldn’t it be possible in matters of the Hereafter?
As for the doubts of the disbelievers concerning that they do not see the punishment of the corpses or that the graves expand in size or grow narrow as some hadeeth mention this is answered by the following points:
The first point is that one is not allowed to refute religious matters and Sharee’ah (law) with mere doubts and suspicions of this nature without any solid argument against since it may be that the deficiency is only in understanding as the Arab poet said:
Many are those who claim a sound saying is defective
Whereas nothing is defective but their own understanding.
The second point is that these issues of the grave are of the realm of the unseen a realm not sensed by physical senses. If matters of the unseen could be tested and affirmed by physical senses there would not be any benefit of believing in and having belief in the revelations about the unseen realm because this would equalize the believer and disbeliever.
The third point is that only the dead person himself experiences punishment or bliss of the grave and its expansiveness or constriction. The case is similar with the sleeping person since only the dreamer feels the sensations of his dreams whether nightmares of contractions or expanses of lightheartedness while for others he is asleep in his bed in his room. Similarly the Prophet () would receive revelation and the companions next to him would not hear the revelation while he did. Sometimes the angel would come to the Prophet () in the shape of a man but the companions were not able to see or hear the angel.
The fourth point is that we creatures have a limited sensual capacity. Much physical reality is outside our range of perception. Everything in the universe the seven heavens the earth and all that is therein praise and glorify Allah but we cannot hear their forms of praise and glorification and only sometimes does Allah give the power to some of His creatures to hear them as He the Most Exalted said:
The seven heavens and the earth and all that is therein glorify Him and there is not a thing but that glorifies His praise but you do not understand their glorification. Truly He is Ever Forbearing Oft-Forgiving. [Surah al-Israa’ (17):44].
Similarly the Jinn3 go back and forth and travel about on the earth but we cannot see them. The Jinn came to the Messenger () and listened to his recitation of the Qur’an. After he finished the recitation they went back to their nation of Jinn to convey the Message to them [as verses of the Qur’an relate].
ll of this is outside the range of our sense perception. Allah the Most Exalted said:
O Children of Adam! Let not Satan deceive you as he got your parents (Adam and Eve) out of Paradise stripping them of their raiment to show them their private parts. Verily he and his soldiers see you from where you will not see them. Verily We made the devils protectors and helpers of those who believe not. [Surah al-A’raaf (7):27].
If we the creatures do not know what exists beyond our range of perception and comprehension we cannot deny its existence. Therefore it is not allowed for us to dispute what has been proven to exist of the unseen realm by revealed scriptures

Menyingkap Fakta, Jesus pun Syahadat

السلام عليكم بِسْــــــــــــــــــمِ ﷲِالرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيم
الحمد لله رب العا لمين. الصلاة و السلام على رسو ل الله.اما بعد

Salah satu ajaran yg hilang dari chrisitan itu ialah SYAHADAT.
Ramai sangat ummat christian tak mengamalkan SYAHADAT.

Padahal ini diajarkan dalam alkitab yg ditangan mereka. Sy tak asal cakap sahaja, smua kena ada bukti, dan bukti terkuat ialah kitab.

Yohanes 17:3 Inilah hidup yang kekal itu, yaitu bahwa mereka mengenal Engkau, SATU-SATUNYA ALLAH YANG BENAR, dan mengenal YESUS KRISTUS YANG ENGKAU UTUS.

Ayat ni, yg sy bagi dalam huruf besar, coba diubah dalam bahasa arab:
LAA ILAAHA ILLALLAH - ISA RASULULLAH
TIDAK ADA TUHAN SELAIN ALLAH - ISA UTUSAN ALLAH

Apakah ayat ini bermakna Tuhan itu 3 tapi 1???
Tidak! Ayat ini bermakna SATU-SATUNYA TUHAN ITU CUMA ALLAH.

Tak jauh beda dengan Syahadat Ummat Islam.
LAA ILAAHA ILLALLAH - MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH
TIDAK ADA TUHAN SELAIN ALLAH - MUHAMMAD UTUSAN ALLAH

Mari sekejap kita tengok lagi ayat diatas:

Yohanes 17:3 Inilah hidup yang kekal itu, yaitu bahwa mereka mengenal Engkau, SATU-SATUNYA ALLAH YANG BENAR, dan mengenal YESUS KRISTUS YANG ENGKAU UTUS.

Apakah ayat ini bermakna Jesus mengaku dirinya Tuhan???
Tidak! Jesus sendiri mengaku jika dia cuma UTUSAN ALLAH sahaja.

Tak jauh beza dengan para Nabi terdahulu
Nabi Ibrahim AS pun Utusan ALLAH
Nabi Musa AS pun Utusan ALLAH
Nabi Isa AS pun Utusan ALLAH

Malaikat Gabriel, (Malaikat Jibril), pun Utusan ALLAH sahaja.
Sy tak asal bicara, semua ada buktinya:

Lukas 1:19 Jawab malaikat itu kepadanya: "Akulah Gabriel yang melayani Allah dan aku telah DIUTUS untuk berbicara dengan engkau dan untuk menyampaikan kabar baik ini kepadamu.

Malaikat telah DIUTUS oleh ALLAH, apakah malaikat itu ALLAH? Tidak!
Jesus telah DIUTUS oleh ALLAH, apakah Jesus itu ALLAH? Tidak!
Tidak mungkin Aku mengutus Aku.

Dan Penyelamat pun bukan cuma Jesus sahaja, Nabi Musa pun Penyelamat, ini bukan sy yg cakap, tapi berdasar bukti.

Kisah 7:35 Musa ini, yang telah mereka tolak, dengan mengatakan: Siapakah yang mengangkat engkau menjadi pemimpin dan hakim? --MUSA INI JUGA TELAH DIUTUS OLEH ALLAH SEBAGAI PEMIMPIN DAN PENYELAMAT oleh malaikat, yang telah menampakkan diri kepadanya di semak duri itu.

Semua yg di utus oleh ALLAH, sudah pasti la bukan ALLAH.

Dalam Qur'an pun, Nabi Isa menyuruh ummatnya menyembah ALLAH sahaja, bukan menyembah dirinya.

Qs.3 Ali Imraan:51. Sesungguhnya Allah, Tuhanku dan Tuhanmu, karena itu sembahlah Dia. Inilah jalan yang lurus".

Dan T E R B U K T I jika Nabi Isa pun sesungguhnya mengajarkan syahadat kepada ummatnya, tapi ajaran itu telah diubah oleh manusia dengan BAPTIS atas nama "Tuhan Bapa", "Tuhan Anak", & "Tuhan Roh Kudus."

Jadi, ada baiknya ummat christiani bersyahadat:
Tidak ada Tuhan Selain ALLAH
Isa Rasulullah... ^_^

The Islamic Religion (Deen)

The Islamic religion is the religion with which Allah sent the Prophet Muhammad sealing thereby the religions perfecting it for His servants completing upon them His bounty and chose it for them as a faith. No other faith or religion other than it will ever be accepted.
Allah has said “Muhammad is not the father of any man among you but he is the Messenger of Allah and the last of the Prophets. And Allah is Ever All-Aware of everything” (al-Ahzaab 33:40).
Allah has also said
“This day I have perfected your religion for you completed My Favor upon you and have chosen for you Islam as your religion.” (Surah al-Maaidah (5):3)
The Exalted has also said “Truly the religion with Allah is Islam.” (Surah Aali-Imraan (3):19).
Again Allah says “And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam it will never be accepted of him and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers.” (Surah Aali-Imraan (3):85)
Allah has made it incumbent upon all of humankind that they that this as a religion and means of submission to Allah. In speaking to the Messenger of Allah Allah has said “Say [O Muhammad to the people:] O humankind! Verily I am sent to you all as the Messenger of Allah - to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. None has the right to be worshipped but He. It is He Who gives life and causes death. So believe in Allah and His Messenger the Prophet who can neither read nor write who believes in Allah and His Words and follow him so that you may be guided.” (Surah al-Araaf (7):158)
In Sahih Muslim it is recorded on the authority of Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah said “By the one in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad no one be he Jew or Christian of the people of this nation hears of me and yet dies without believing in what I have been sent with except that he will be from the companions of the Hell-fire.”
Belief in him means to affirm with proper acceptance and compliance and not merely an affirmation [in the mind] everything that he has come with. For this reason Abu Taalib was not a believer in the Messenger although he affirmed everything he brought and even testified that the Prophet’s religion is the best of all religions.
The Islamic religion encompasses all of the goodness that was embodied in previous religions. However it is distinguished by being suitable for all times places and peoples. Allah says while addressing His Messenger “And We have sent down to you (O Muhammad) the Book in truth confirming the Scripture that came before it and as a criterion over it (old Scriptures).” (Surah al-Maaidah (5):48)
The meaning that it is suitable for all times places and peoples is that the one who adheres to it will never go against what is beneficial for the nation in any place or time. In fact it is the thing that makes things right. It does not mean that it is meant to serve any place time or people as some people have tried to twist it to mean.
The Islamic religion is the religion of truth due to which if one abides by it properly Allah will give help and victory over all other religions. Allah has said “He it is Who has sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to make it victorious over all (other) religions even though the polytheists hate (it).” (Surah as-Saff (61):9)
Allah also says “Allah has promised those among you who believe and do righteous good deeds that He will certainly grant them succession to [the present rulers] in the earth as He granted it to those before them and that He will grant them the authority to practice their religion that which He has chosen for them (i.e. Islam). And He will surely give them in exchange a safe security after their fear [provided] they (believers) worship Me and do not associate anything [in worship] with Me. But whoever disbelieved after this they are the evildoers.” (Surah an-Noor (24):55)
The Islamic religion is both a matter of creed as well as law. It is complete both in its beliefs and its laws.

• It enjoins the oneness of Allah and prohibits associating partners with Allah.
• It enjoins truthfulness and prohibits lying and falsehood.
• It enjoins justice and prohibits injustice.
• It enjoins fulfilling trusts and prohibits treachery.
• It enjoins fulfilling promises and prohibits deception.
• It enjoins being dutiful to one’s parents and forbids being disobedient to them.
• It enjoins being good to one’s neighbors and prohibits harming them.

In general one can say that Islam enjoins every noble and virtuous character while prohibiting every evil harmful trait. It enjoins every good pious act and prohibits every evil deed. Indeed Allah has said “Verily Allah enjoins justice and goodness and giving (help) to kith and kin; and forbids all evil deeds bad conduct and wrongdoing. He admonishes you that you may take heed.” (Surah an-Nahl (16):90)

Makna Tahun baru Hijriyah

Sang waktu terus berjalan. Tak terasa kita masuki tahun baru 1432 Hijriah. Itu artinya hijrah Rasulullah saw. beserta para sahabatnya ke Madinah telah berumur 1432 tahun. Sebuah peristiwa bersejarah yg patut dikenang. Di dalamnya terkandung makna dan keteladanan utk sebuah pengorbanan sejati yg mengapresiasikan perlawanan akan kebatilan sekaligus sikap konsisten mengedepankan kepentingan misi dari kepentingan apa pun. Agar ia tetap lestari dan terjaga dari kepunahan meski karenanya harus berdarah-darah mereka harus meninggalkan negeri harta sanak dan handai-taulan tercinta. Dalam Ath-Thabaqat Al-Laits bin Sa’ad mengutip sebuah riwayat dari Ibunda Aisyah r.a. adl Rasulullah saw. bersuka-cita saat jumlah pengikutnya mencapai tujuh puluh orang krn itu artinya Allah telah membuatkan “tameng pertahanan”. Bukan sembarangan mereka terdiri dari kaum profesional di bidang peperangan persenjataan dan pembelaan. Toh permusuhan dan penyiksaan kaum musyrik bertambah gencar dan berat. Bahkan tingkat siksaan dan celaan yg dirasakan sahabat belum pernah dialami sebelumnya. Mereka pun mengadu kepada Rasulullah saw. dan meminta izin utk berhijrah. Pengaduan dan permintaan itu dijawab oleh Rasulullah saw. “Sesungguhnya aku pun telah diberi tahu bahwa tempat kalian adl Yatsrib. Barangsiapa yg ingin keluar-hijrah- maka hendaklah ia keluar ke Yatsrib.” Para sahabat kemudian hijrah secara bergelombang dan tentu saja dgn sembunyi-sembunyi kecuali Umar bin al-Khattab r.a. Dengan tegas Umar bahkan bersuara lantang “Barangsiapa ingin ibunya kehilangan anaknya atau istrinya menjadi janda atau anaknya menjadi yatim piatu hendaklah ia menghadangku di balik lembah ini.” Sebuah tantangan yg antiklimaks krn tak satu pun orang kafir Quraisy yg berani menampakkan batang hidungnya. Tibalah Rasulullah di Yatsrib setelah sebelumnya para sahabatnya lbh dulu sampai. Belia disambut dgn penuh suka cita oleh sahabat Anshar. Yatsrib di kemudian hari diganti namanya menjadi Al-Madinah al-Munawwarah. Hijrah itu sekaligus menjadi tonggak awal dimulainya kalender Islam. Makna Hijrah Secara harfiah hijrah artinya berpindah. Secara istilah ia mengandung dua makna hijrah makani dan hijrah maknawi . Hijrah makani artinya hijrah secara fisik berpindah dari suatu tempat yg kurang baik menuju yg lbh baik dari negeri kafir menuju negeri Islam. Adapun hijrah maknawi artinya berpindah dari nilai yg kurang baik menuju nilai yg lbh baik dari kebatilan menuju kebenaran dari kekufuran menuju keislaman. Ringkasnya hijrah kepada tuntunan Allah dan Rasul-Nya. Makna terakhir oleh Ibnu Qayyim bahkan dinyatakan sebagai al-hijrah al-haqiqiyyah . Alasannya hijrah fisik adl refleksi dari hijrah maknawi itu sendiri. Dua makna hijrah tersebut sekaligus terangkum dalam hijrah Rasulullah saw. dan para sahabatnya ke Madinah. Secara makani jelas mereka berjalan dari Mekah ke Madinah menempuh padang pasir sejauh kurang lbh 450 km. Secara maknawi juga jelas mereka hijrah demi terjaganya misi Islam. Al-Qahthani menyatakan bahwa hijrah sebagai urusan yg besar. Hijrah berhubungan erat dgn al-wala’ wal-bara’. Bal hiya min ahammi takaalifahaa bahkan ia termasuk manifestasi yg paling penting. Penting krn menyangkut ketepatan sikap seorang muslim dalam memberikan perwalian kesetiaan dan pembelaan. Juga menyangkut ketepatan seorang muslim dalam menampakkan penolakan dan permusuhan kepada yg patut dimusuhi. Dalam sejarah para rasul juga dekat dgn tradisi hijrah dan semua atas semangat penegasan batas sebuah loyalitas kesetiaan keimanan yg berujung pada menuju yg lbh baik atas rida Allah. Sebut misalnya Nabi Ibrahim Khalilullah beliau telah melakukan hijrah beberapa kali dari Babilon ke Palestina dari Palestina ke Mesir dari Mesir ke Palestina lagi semua demi risalah suci. Termasuk hijrah beliau dari Palestina menuju Mekah yg dalam perkembangannya menjadi syariat haji. Adalah Ibrahim a.s. yg baru dikarunia Ismail anak yg selama ini dinanti harus meninggalkan Palestina bersama istrinya Hajar menuju tanah gersang tak bertuan. Di tempat itulah Ibrahim meninggalkan anak dan istrinya dgn hanya dibekali sekantong makanan dan seteko air. Ibnu Katsir menceritakan dalam tafsirnya Saat Nabi Ibrahim hendak berlalu sang istri menarik tali kekang tunggangannya dan bertanya “Apakah Kanda akan meninggalkanku bersama anakmu di tempat yg tiada tanaman lagi tak bertuan?” Ibrahim a.s. terdiam. Hajar mengulangi pertanyaannya hingga tiga kali dan tetap saja Ibrahim diam. Sampai akhirnya Hajar mengganti pertanyaan “Apakah Allah yg memerintahkanmu melakukan hal ini.” “Benar” jawab Ibrahim. Hajar menimpali “Jika demikian Allah tidak akan mempersulit kami.” Sungguh sebuah dialog yg menusuk hati merefleksikan keimanan yg amat dalam sebuah ketundukan sekaligus pengorbanan yg menakjubkan. Terpancar sikap tawakal yg begitu tinggi bahwa hanya Allah Yang Maha Menghidupkan Maha Memberi Rezeki Maha Mematikan. Sempurnalah implementasi hijrah pada diri Ibrahim a.s. dan keluarganya baik secaramakani maupun maknawi. Ibrah dari Hijrah Pelajaran yg nyata dari peristiwa hijrah adl sebuah pengorbanan. Setelah para sahabat keluar dari ujian berupa siksaan dan cercaan dari Kafir Quraisy di Mekah tidak otomatis menjadikan mereka bebas dari ujian berikutnya. Yang paling gamblang adl cobaan meninggalkan kemapanan. Tengoklah bagaimana sahabat meninggalkan keluarga tercinta rumah pekerjaan tanah air dan sanak kadang. Secara lahiriyah umumnya naluri manusia akan menyatakan ujian itu sungguh berat. Meninggalkan nilai material yg barangkali selama ini mereka rintis dan perjuangkan. Berpindah ke suatu tempat asing yg penuh spekulasi. Toh kecintaan para sahabat akan Islam mengalahkan kecintaan pada semua itu. Kesucian akidah di atas segalanya. Hal ini sekaligus menegaskan betapa maslahat din menempati pertimbangan tertinggi dari maslahat-maslahat yg lain. Pelajaran lain hijrah menegaskan adanya perseteruan abadi antara kebatilan versus kebenaran. Ibarat minyak dan air ia tidak akan bisa bertemu karenanya adl sebuah utopia upaya-upaya “mengawinkan” antara nilai Islam dgn civic culture yg bertentangan dgn Islam terlebih jika dilandasi nafsu mendahulukan budaya ketimbang nilai Islam atas nama pluralisme dan humanisme. Pelajaran berikutnya adl perseteruan kebenaran versus kebatilan mengharuskan manusia memilih salah satu di antara keduanya tidak ada sikap “non-blok”. Allah SWT berfirman yg artinya “Kebenaran itu datang dari Rabb-mu maka jangan sekali-kali engkau termasuk orang yg ragu-ragu.” . Untuk menangkap spirit hijrah lbh jauh rumusan sederhana Ibnu Qayyim cukup menarik katanya dalam kata hijrah terkandung arti berpindah “dari” dan berpindah “menuju”. Maksudnya berpindah dari yg semula tidak sesuai dgn tuntunan Allah dan Rasul-Nya menuju kepada yg sesuai dgn tuntunan Allah dan Rasul-Nya. Jika rumusan global tersebut betul-betul dihayati tiap muslim utk selanjutnya secara konsisten diterapkan dalam sendi-sendi kehidupan barangkali nasib umat Islam secara umum akan lbh baik dari sekarang. Seorang koruptor akan berhenti dari korupsinya para preman akan menghentikan aksi bromocorahnya tidak ada lagi muslim penimbun orang miskin akan bersuka cita krn kucuran infak para dermawan. Para dai berhenti bersengketa antar mereka dalam urusan yg kurang prinsip dan seterusnya. Lantas mengapa kenyataannya tidak demikian? Barangkali krn kita kurang menghayati dan mengamalkan arti hijrah sebagaimana mestinya. Wallahu a’lam. .

Tauhid uluhiyah

Uluhiyah adl ibadah. Tauhid uluhiyah adl mengesakan Allah dgn perbuatan para hamba berdasarkan niat taqarrub yg disyariatkan seperti doa nazar kurban raja’ takut tawakal raghbah rahbah dan inabah . Jenis tauhid inilah yg merupakan inti dakwah para rasul mulai rasul yg pertama hingga yg terakhir.
Allah SWT berfirman Dan sesungguhnya Kami telah mengutus rasul pada tiap-tiap umat ‘Sembahlah Allah dan jauhilah thaghut itu’. .
Dan Kami tidak mengutus seorang rasul pun sebelum kamu melainkan Kami wahyukan kepadanya ‘Bahwasannya tidak ada Tuhan melainkan Aku maka sembahlah olehmu sekalian akan Aku’. .
Setiap rasul selalu memulai dakwahnya dgn perintah tauhid uluhiyah sebagaimana yg diucapkan oleh Nabi Nuh Hud Shalih Syu’aib dan lain-lain.
Hai kaumku sembahlah Allah sekali-kali tidak ada Tuhan bagimu selain-Nya.
.
Dan ingatlah Ibrahim ketika ia berkata kepada kaumnya ‘Semahlah olehmu Allah dan bertakwalah kepada-Nya’. .
Dan diwahyukan kepada Nabi Muhammad saw. Katakanlah ‘Sesungguhnya aku diperintahkan supaya menyembah Allah dgn memurnikan ketaatan kepada-Nya dalam agama’. .
Rasulullah saw. Sendiri bersabda Saya diperintahkan utk memerangi manusia sampai mereka bersaksi bahwa tiada ilah yg hak kecuali Allah dan bahwa Muhammad adl rasulullah. {HR Bukhari dan Muslim}.
Kewajiban awal bagi tiap mukallaf adl bersaksi laa ilaaha illallaah {tidak ada Tuhan yg berhak disembah kecuali Allah} serta mengamalkannya. Allah SWT berfirman Maka ketahuilah bahwa tidak ada Tuhan melainkan Allah dan mohonlah ampunan bagi dosamu …. .
Dan kewajiban pertama bagi orang yg ingin masuk Islam adl mengikrarkan dua kalimat syahadat.
Jadi jelaslah bahwa tauhid uluhiyah adl maksud dari dakwah para rasul.
Disebut demikian krn uluhiyah adl sifat Allah yg ditunjukkan oleh nama-Nya Allah yg artinya dzul uluhiyah .
Juga disebut tauhid ibadah krn ubudiyah adl sifat ‘abd yg wajib menyembah Allah secara ikhlas krn ketergantungan mereka kepadanya.
Syekh Islam Ibnu Taimiyah mengatakan Ketahuilah kebutuhan seorang hamba utk menyembah Allah tanpa menyekutukan-Nya dgn sesuatu pun tidak memiliki bandingan yg dapat dikiaskan tetapi dari sebagian segi mirip dgn kebutuhan jasad kepada makanan dan minuman. Akan tetapi di antara keduanya ini terdapat perbedaan mendasar. Karena hakikat seorang hamba adl hati dan rohnya ia tidak bisa baik kecuali dgn Allah yg tiada Tuhan selain-Nya. Ia tidak bisa tenang di dunia kecuali dgn mengingat-Nya. Seandainya hamba memperoleh keni’matan dan kesenangan tanpa Allah maka hal itu tidak akan berlangsung lama tetapi akan berpindah-pindah dari satu macam ke macam yg lain dari satu orang kepada orang lain. Adapun Tuhannya maka Dia dibutuhkan tiap saat dan tiap waktu; di mana pun ia berada maka Dia selalu bersamanya. {Majmu Fatawa I/24}.
Tauhid ini adl inti dari dakwah para rasul krn ia adl asas dan pondasi tempat dibangunnya seluruh amal. Tenpa merealisasikannya semua amal ibadah tidak akan diterima. Karena kalau ia tidak terwujud bercokollah lawannya yaitu syirik. Sedangkan Allah SWT berfirman Sesungguhnya Allah tidak akan mengampuni dosa syirik. .
… seandainya mereka mempersekutukan Allah niscaya lenyaplah dari mereka amalan yg telah mereka kerjakan. .
Jika kamu mempersekutukan niscaya akan hapuslah amalmu dan tentulah kamu termasuk orang-orang yg merugi. .
Dan tauhid jenis ini adl kewajiban pertama segenap hamba. Allah SWT berfirman Sembahlah Allah dan janganlah kamu mempersekutukan-Nya dgn sesuatu pun. Dan berbuat baiklah kepada dua orang tua ibu bapak. {An-Nisa’ 36}. Dan beberapa ayat-ayat lainnya yg isinya tentang hal ini.

Tauhid Asma’ dan Sifat

Tauhid Asma’ wa-Sifat yaitu beriman kepada nama-nama Allah dan sifat-sifat-Nya sebagaimana yg diterangkan dalam Alquran dan sunah Rasul-Nya menurut apa yg pantas bagi Allah SWT tanpa ta’wil dan ta’thil tanpa takyif {mempersoalkan hakikat asma dan sifat Allah dgn bertanya bagaimana } dan tamtsil {menyerupakan Allah dgn makhluk-Nya}. Hal itu berdasarkan firman Allah SWT {yang artinya} Tidak ada sesuatu pun yg serupa dgn Dia dan Dialah Yang Maha Mendengar lagi Maha Melihat. .
Allah menafikan jika ada sesuatu yg menyerupai-Nya dan Dia menetapkan bahwa Dia adl Maha Mendengar dan Maha Melihat. Maka Dia diberi nama dan disifati dgn nama dan sifat yg Dia berikan utk diri-Nya dan dgn nama dan sifat yg disampaikan oleh Rasul-Nya. Alquran dan sunah dalam hal ini tidak boleh dilanggar krn tidak seorang pun yg lbh mengetahui Allah daripada Allah sendiri dan tidak ada-sesudah Allah-orang yg lbh mengetahui Allah daripada Rasul-Nya. Maka barang siapa yg mengingkari nama-nama Allah dan sifat-sifat-Nya atau menamakan Allah dan menyifati-Nya dgn nama-nama dan sifat-sifat makhluk-Nya atau menakwilkan dari maknanya yg benar maka dia telah berbicara tentang Allah tanpa ilmu dan berdusta terhadap Allah dan Rasul-Nya.
Allah SWT berfirman Siapakah yg lbh zalim daripada orang-orang yg mengada-adakan kebohongan terhadap Allah? .
