Tahajud Lah

Dalam 7 Hari Yang Telah Lalu Dan Mungkin Akan Terulang

Hari per-1, tahajudku tetinggal
Dan aku begitu sibuk akan duniaku
Hingga zuhurku, kuselesaikan saat ashar mulai memanggil
Dan sorenya kulewati saja masjid yang mengumandangkan
azan magrib Dengan niat kulakukan bersama isya itupun terlaksana
setelah acara tv selesai

Hari ke-2, tahajudku tertinggal lagi
Dan hal yang sama aku lakukan sebagaimana hari pertama

Hari ke-3 aku lalai lagi akan tahujudku
Temanku memberi hadiah novel best seller yang lebih dr
200 hlmn Dalam waktu tidak 1 hari aku telah selesai membacanya
Tapi… enggan sekali aku membaca Al-qur’an walau cuma 1 juzz
Al-qur’an yg 114 surat, hanya 1,2 surat yang kuhapal
itupun dengan terbata-bata
Tapi… ketika temanku bertanya ttg novel tadi betapa
mudah dan lancarnya aku menceritakan

Hari ke-4 kembali aku lalai lagi akan tahajudku
Sorenya aku datang ke selatan Jakarta dengan niat mengaji
Tapi kubiarkan ustazdku yang sedang mengajarkan kebaikan
Kubiarkan ustadzku yang sedang mengajarkan lebih luas tentang agamaku
Aku lebih suka mencari bahan obrolan dengan teman yg ada disampig kiri & kananku
Padahal bada magrib tadi betapa sulitnya aku merangkai Kata-kata untuk kupanjatkan saat berdoa

Hari ke-5 kembali aku lupa akan tahajudku
Kupilih shaf paling belakang dan aku mengeluh saat
imam sholat jum’at kelamaan bacaannya
Padahal betapa dekat jaraknya aku dengan televisi dan betapa nikmat, serunya saat perpanjangan waktu sepak bola favoritku tadi malam

Hari ke-6 aku semakin lupa akan tahajudku
Kuhabiskan waktu di mall & bioskop bersama teman2ku
Demi memuaskan nafsu mata & perutku sampai puluhan ribu tak terasa keluar
Aku lupa .. waktu diperempatan lampu merah tadi
Saat wanita tua mengetuk kaca mobilku
Hanya uang dua ratus rupiah kuberikan itupun tanpa
menoleh

Hari ke-7 bukan hanya tahajudku tapi shubuhkupun tertinggal
Aku bermalas2an ditempat tidurku menghabiskan waktu
Selang beberapa saat dihari ke-7 itu juga
Aku tersentak kaget mendengar khabar temanku kini
Telah terbungkus kain kafan padahal baru tadi malam
aku bersamanya & ¾ malam tadi dia dengan misscallnya mengingat aku
ttg tahajud

Kematian…………..
Kenapa aku baru gemetar mendengarnya?
Padahal dari dulu sayap2nya selalu mengelilingiku dan
Dia bisa hinggap kapanpun dia mau

¼ abad lebih aku lalai….
Dari hari ke hari, bulan dan tahun
Yang wajib jarang aku lakukan apalagi yang sunnah
Kurang mensyukuri walaupun KAU tak pernah meminta
Berkata kuno akan nasehat ke-2 orang tuaku
Padahal keringat & airmatanya telah terlanjur menetes
demi aku

Tuhan…………
Andai ini merupakan satu titik hidayah
Walaupun imanku belum seujung kuku hitam
Aku hanya ingin detik ini hingga nafasku yang saat
nanti tersisa Tahajud dan sholatku meninggalkan bekas
Saat aku melipat sajadahku…..
Amin….

Bila di dunia ada syurga, maka itulah kehidupan rumah tangga yang sakinah
mawaddah wa rahmah.
Bila di dunia ada neraka, maka itulah kehidupan rumah tangga yang tak selaras & jauh dari agama.

Bahagialah mereka yang diamnya berfikir,
Memandangnya mengambil pelajaran,
mendengarnya mengambil hikmah, dan
dalam tindakannya mengenal indahnya ajaran Islam.

Agar Umur Berkah

Agar umur berkah

BISSMILLAHIROHMANIRROHIM

Amir Muhammad al- madri dalam kitab nya menyebut ada 30 amal yang dapat dilakukan untuk menambah berkah umur. Berikut 3 dari 30 amal yang wajib di ketahui.

1. di setiap aktivitas selalu berharap ridho allah swt. Sebagian ulama berkata “ makan,tidur, minum, dan apapun yang dilakukan seorang mukmin karena ketaatan kepada Allah SWT pasti menghasilkan pahala”. Bias melakukan banyak hal yang bernilai pahala dalam setiap detik kehidupan dapat umur terasa lebih panjang karena banyak maanfaat yang didapat.

2. memelihara hubungan silaturahim. Silaturahim ini membuat kita akan selalu diingat orang lain, bahkam setelah meninggal dunia sekalipun. Inilah yang membuat seolah olah tetap hidup. Benarlah Rasulullah SAW dengan sabda nya “ siapapun yang ingin dipanjang kan sisa umur nya dan diluaskan rezekinya, hendaklah ia menjalin silaturahim”.

3. berakhlak baik. Orang yang baik pasti disenangi banyak orang. Kehadiran nya dinantikan dan ketiadaannya di pertanyakan. Keadaan ini membuat nya selalu hidup sekalipun nanti setelah ia wafat. Inilah yang membuat seolah berumur panjang (berkah). Rasulullah pernah bersabda, “ sesungguh nya kamu tidak akan bisa membahagiakan semua orang dengan seluruh harta mu. (tapi) bahagiakan lah mereka dengan wajah yang lembut dan kebaikan akhlak mu.


Banyak orang keliru dalam memandang umur. Kata Rasulullah, “ Ada dua nikmat yang membuat banyak orang tertipu karena nya, yaitu: kesehatan dan waktu yang luang.”

Waktu yang luang itu adalah umur yang menjadi kesempatan untuk beramal saleh. Orang yang tidak menggunakan kesempatan tersebut sampai kematian tiba, berarti dia tertipu dengan umur nya.

Setiap panjang umur akan semakin dekatlah dengan kematian dan semakin sedikit pula waktunya untuk beramal. “orang yang baik diantara kamu adalah yang panjang umurnya dan paling baik amal nya,” tegas Rasulullah SAW.

Sesungguh nya ketetapan (ajal) Allah SWT apabila telah datang tidak dapat di tangguhkan, kalau kamu mengetahui.
Namun, bila umur dipahami sebagai waktu yang terpakai untuk hidup, sebelum kematian datang, umur dikatakan terus bertambah. Umur akan semakin bertambah sampai seseorang menemui ajal nya.


DOA PANJANG UMUR

Permohonan doa akan dipanjang kan umur pada dasar nya merupakan permohonan untuk mendapat bimbingan (hidayah) Allah SWT agar umur yang tersisa dapat digunakan secara optimal untuk beribadah kepada – NYA

Setiap memohon kepada Allah SWT agar dipanjangkan umur, itu berarti kita selalu berupaya agar setiap detik yang berlalu dalam hidup ini selalu mendatangkan manfaat dan mashlahat buat kita, di dunia maupun akhirat.

Inilah umur yang berkah, dan keberkahan ini yang sebenar nya kita mohonkan kepada ALLAH SWT.
“Demi masa, sesungguh nya manusia itu benar benar dalam kerugian, kecuali orang orang yang beriman dan mengerjakan amal shaleh dan nasehat- menasehati supaya menetapi kesabaran.” (QS. Al-ashr/103:1-3)

Seorang nenek bertanya kepada Rasulullah tentang apakah kelak diri nya masuk surga. Rasulullah menjawab, “ Tidak akan ada nenek nenek di surga.”
Mendengar jawaban ini spontan sang nenek menangis. Rasulullah lalu berkata kepadanya bahwa di surga memang tidak ada nenek nenek karena semua akan dijadikan muda belia. Sang nenek pun langsung tersenyum gembira.

Mulailah untuk mensyukuri segala nikmat yang diberikan ALLAH SWT….
Tidak ada kata terlambat dari pada tidak sama sekali….
Sebelum AJAL menjemput mu……………….

Ya ROBBI….. berikan keridhoan Mu untuk terus berada di JALAN MU………………

Direct and Indirect speech

DIRECT AND INDIRECT SPEECH DIRECT AND REPORTED SPEECH You can answer the question "What did he/she say?" in two ways: · by repeating the words spoken (direct speech) · by reporting the words spoken (indirect or reported speech). Direct Speech Direct speech repeats, or quotes, the exact words spoken. When we use direct speech in writing, we place the words spoken between inverted commas ("....") and there is no change in these words. We may be reporting something that's being said NOW (for example a telephone conversation), or telling someone later about a previous conversation Examples: She says "What time will you be home?" She said "What time will you be home?" and I said "I don't know! " "There's a fly in my soup!" screamed Simone. John said, "There's an elephant outside the window." Reported Speech Reported speech is usually used to talk about the past, so we normally change the tense of the words spoken. We use reporting verbs like 'say', 'tell', 'ask', and we may use the word 'that' to introduce the reported words. Inverted commas are not used. She said, "I saw him." She said that she had seen him. a. 'That' may be omitted: She told him that she was happy. She told him she was happy. b. 'Say' and 'tell': Use 'say' when there is no indirect object: He said that he was tired. Always use 'tell' when you say who was being spoken to (i.e. with an indirect object): He told me that he was tired. 'Talk' and 'speak' are used: - to describe the action of communicating: He talked to us. She was speaking on the telephone. - with 'about' to refer to what was said: He talked (to us) about his parents. REPORTED SPEECH HOPES, INTENTIONS, PROMISES When we report an intention, hope or promise, we use an appropriate reporting verb followed by a that-clause or a to-infinitive: "I'll pay you the money tomorrow." He promised to pay me the money the next day. He promised that he would pay me the money the next day. Other verbs used in this pattern include: hope, propose, threaten, guarantee, swear. Examples: a. "I'll be back by lunchtime." He promised to be back by lunchtime. He promised that he would be back by lunchtime. b. "We should arrive in London before nightfall." They hoped to arrive in London before nightfall. They hoped they would arrive in London before nightfall. c. "Give me the keys to the safe or I'll shoot you!" He threatened to shoot me if I didn't give him the keys to the safe. He threatened that he would shoot me if I didn't give him the keys to the safe. REPORTED SPEECH ORDERS, REQUESTS, SUGGESTIONS 1. When we want to report an order or request, we can use a verb like 'tell' with a to-clause. Examples: He told me to go away. The pattern is verb + indirect object + to-clause. (The indirect object is the person spoken to.) Other verbs used to report orders and requests in this way are: command, order, warn, ask, advise, invite, beg, teach, forbid. Examples: a. The doctor said to me, "Stop smoking!". The doctor told me to stop smoking. b. "Get out of the car!" said the policeman. The policeman ordered him to get out of the car. c. "Could you please be quiet," she said. She asked me to be quiet. d. The man with the gun said to us, "Don't move!" The man with the gun warned us not to move. (See also section on Verbs followed by infinitive and Verbs followed by gerund) 2. Requests for objects are reported using the pattern ask + for + object: Examples: a. "Can I have an apple?", she asked. She asked for an apple. b. "Can I have the newspaper, please?" He asked for the newspaper. c. "May I have a glass of water?" he said. He asked for a glass of water. d. "Sugar, please." She asked for the sugar. e. "Could I have three kilos of onions?" He asked for three kilos of onions. 3. Suggestions are usually reported with a that-clause. 'That' and 'should' are optional in these clauses: She said: "Why don't you get a mechanic to look at the car?" She suggested that I should get a mechanic to look at the car. OR She suggested I get a mechanic to look at the car. Other reporting verbs used in this way are: insist, recommend, demand, request, propose. Examples: a. "It would be a good idea to see the dentist", said my mother. My mother suggested I see the dentist. b. The dentist said, "I think you should use a different toothbrush". The dentist recommended that I should use a different toothbrush. c. My manager said, "I think we should examine the budget carefully at this meeting." My manager proposed that we examine the budget carefully at the meeting. d. "Why don't you sleep overnight at my house?" she said. She suggested that I sleep overnight at her house. Notes: Suggest can also be followed by a gerund: I suggested postponing the visit to the dentist. REPORTED SPEECH QUESTIONS 1. Normal word order is used in reported questions, that is, the subject comes before the verb, and it is not necessary to use 'do' or 'did': "Where does Peter live?" She asked him where Peter lived. 2. Yes / no questions: This type of question is reported by using 'ask' + 'if / whether + clause: a. "Do you speak English?" He asked me if I spoke English. b. "Are you British or American?" He asked me whether I was British or American. c. "Is it raining?" She asked if it was raining. d. "Have you got a computer?" He wanted to know whether I had a computer. e. "Can you type?" She asked if I could type. f. "Did you come by train?" He enquired whether I had come by train. g. "Have you been to Bristol before?" She asked if I had been to Bristol before. 3. Question words: This type of question is reported by using 'ask' (or another verb like 'ask') + question word + clause. The clause contains the question, in normal word order and with the necessary tense change. Examples: a. "What is your name?" he asked me. He asked me what my name was. b. "How old is your mother?", he asked. He asked how old her mother was. c. The mouse said to the elephant, "Where do you live?" The mouse asked the elephant where she lived. d. "What time does the train arrive?" she asked. She asked what time the train arrived. e. "When can we have dinner?" she asked. She asked when they could have dinner. f. The elephant said to the mouse, "Why are you so small?" The elephant asked the mouse why she was so small. REPORTED SPEECH SUMMARY OF REPORTING VERBS Note that some reporting verbs may appear in more than one of the following groups. 1. Verbs followed by 'if' or 'whether' + clause: ask know remember say see 2. Verbs followed by a that-clause: add admit agree announce answer argue boast claim comment complain confirm consider deny doubt estimate explain fear feel insist mention observe persuade propose remark remember repeat reply report reveal say state suggest suppose tell think understand warn 3. Verbs followed by either a that-clause or a to-infinitive: decide expect guarantee hope promise swear threaten 4. Verbs followed by a that-clause containing should (but note that it may be omitted, leaving a subject + zero-infinitive): advise beg demand insist prefer propose recommend request suggest 5. Verbs followed by a clause starting with a question word: decide describe discover discuss explain forget guess imagine know learn realise remember reveal say see suggest teach tell think understand wonder 6. Verbs followed by object + to-infinitive advise ask beg command forbid instruct invite teach tell warn REPORTED SPEECH TENSE CHANGES Normally, the tense in reported speech is one tense back in time from the tense in direct speech: She said, "I am tired." She said that she was tired. The changes are shown below: Simple present Simple past "I always drink coffee", she said She said that she always drank coffee.
