Sunnah Rasulullah Amalan Terbaik: Dalam Situasi Tertentu

1. Menghadirkan niat yang baik dalam segala amalan

Segala amalan yang diharuskan seperti makan, tidur, bekerja mencari rezeki dan lain-lain boleh menjadi suatu ibadah dan ketaatan kepada Allah. Ini jikalau diniatkan kerana Allah.
Rasulullah s.a.w. menyatakan:
"Sesungguhnya segala amalan itu bergantung pada niat."
(Imam Al-Bukhari dan Muslim)

Ibadah yang mudah tapi mudah juga dilupakan. Mari berazam untuk berniat mencari redha Allah dalam setiap rutin harian kita. Pahala ibadah pun dapat, pahala ikut sunnah Rasulullah pun dapat. Bijak bijakk. Hehe ;)

Rapuh by Opick

Detik waktu terus berjalan
Berhias gelap dan terang
Suka dan duka tangis dan tawa
Tergores bagai lukisan

Seribu mimpi berjuta sepi
Hadir bagai teman sejati
Di antara lelahnya jiwa
Dalam resah dan air mata
Kupersembahkan kepadaMu
Yang terindah dalam hidupku

Meski ku rapuh dalam langkah
Kadang tak setia kepadaMu
Namun cinta dalam jiwa
Hanyalah padaMu

Sunnah Rasulullah Amalan Terbaik: Ketika Memakai Kasut

Sunnah Rasulullah ketika memakai kasut:

1. Memakai kasut dimulai dengan kaki kanan

2. Menanggalkan kasut dimulai dengan kaki kiri

3. Tidak memakai hanya sebelah kasut sahaja. Memakai kedua-dua belah atau menanggalkan kedua-duanya


Sabda Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam:

 “Jika salah seorang daripada kamu mengenakan kasut, hendaknya ia mendahulukan kaki kanan. Sedang jika ia menanggalkannya, sewajarnya ia mendahulukan kaki kiri. Juga, semestinya ia memakai kedua-keduanya, atau justeru melepaskan keduanya sekaligus.” -HR Muslim


Berapa banyak kali dalam sehari kita memakai dan menanggalkan kasut? Banyak kali kan? Bayangkan jika setiap kali itu kita mengikut cara nabi dan berniat untuk mencontohi sunnah Rasulullah, banyak pahala tu kan hihi. InsyaAllah.

Selamat beramal! :)

Sunnah Rasulullah Amalan Terbaik: Ketika Bangun Tidur

Assalamualaikum :)

Alhamdulillah diberi kesempatan untuk memiliki buku 24 Jam dalam Kehidupan Rasulullah S.A.W. Dah lama cari buku macam ni nak dijadikan rujukan. Iye lah, Allah dah bagi contoh terbaik manusia untuk dijadikan teladan tapi taknak kaji atau ikut lagi, tak ke pelik tu. Hihi.

Di sini saya nak kongsikan antara amalan-amalan yang dilakukan oleh Rasulullah S.A.W. yang terdapat di dalam buku ni.

Okay kali ini kita tengok sunnah-sunnah Rasulullah S.A.W ketika bangun tidur.

1. Menyapu kesan-kesan tidur pada muka dengan tangan
Imam An-Nawawi dan Imam Ibnu Hajar merekodkan, sunat menyapu kesan-kesan tidur yang terlekat pada muka dengan menggunakan tangan apabila bangun daripada tidur. Ini berdasarkan pada hadis Rasulullah S.A.W.:
"Rasulullah S.A.W. bangun daripada tidur, lalu Baginda duduk sambil menyapu kesan-kesan tidur pada wajahnya." (Hadis direkodkan oleh Imam Muslim)

2. Membaca doa bangun daripada tidur

"Segala puji bagi Allah yang telah menghidupkan kami selepas Dia mematikan kami (tidur) dan kepadaNya kami akan dibangkitkan." (Hadis direkodkan oleh Imam Al-Bukhari)

3. Bersugi

"Rasulullah S.A.W apabila bangun daripada tidur, Baginda menggosok giginya menggunakan siwak (kayu sugi)." (Hadis direkodkan oleh Imam Al-Bukhari dan Muslim)
*Kayu sugi ni dengan mudah boleh didapati di Mydin hihi. Alhamdulillah dapat rasa nikmat bersugi, rasa mulut lebih segar dan nyaman. Di samping niat nak capai redha Allah dengan ikut sunnah Nabi, dapat pula rasa kesegaran selepas bersugi. Haa rugi kalau tak amalkan ni.

Jom kita contohi kehidupan peribadi agung Rasullullah S.A.W. Mula dengan bangun tidur dulu hihi.
InsyaAllah.

Sempurna

Silap aku cuba mencari sempurna pada makhluk.
Sedangkan hanya Dia yang Maha Sempurna.

Wahai yang Maha Sempurna,
Pimpinlah hamba yang serba kekurangan ini menuju redhaMu.
Tidak ada apa-apalah aku tanpaMu.

Japanese Cotton Cheesecake

Assalamualaikum.

Hey it's Ramadhan, alhamdulillah. Happy Ramadhan peeps!
How is your Ramadhan goal doing eh? May Allah help us all in achieving our target. Ameen.

Okay, few days back when I was in the mood of baking cake I saw an awesome recipe on how to bake a Japanese Cotton Cheesecake that only requires three ingredients. Yes! Only three ingredients! I was shocked too. And so, without hesitancy I tried it out.

Let's have a look on this.
First, the ingredients.

1. Three eggs

2. 120g cream cheese

3. 120g white chocolate

Yep that's all hehe!

How?

1. Preheat the oven to 170C (338F). Separate the eggs and place the whites in a large bowl. Let your egg whites sit in the refrigerator to keep them cold until you are ready to use them (which makes the meringue more stable).
2. Place the chocolate (broken into pieces) in a large bowl. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler over hot water (60C/140F). Then add the cream cheese and melt them together. Remove the bowl from the double boiler, add the egg yolks, and mix well.

3. In a large bowl, whip egg whites with an electric mixer until firm peaks form. *If it's thick enough, you can turn the bowl upside down without it sliding out.

4. Add 1/3 Meringue into the cream cheese batter and blend well with a spatula. Then add the rest of the Meringue 1/2 at a time and mix well.

5. Rub some oil/butter on parchment paper (in this way, the cake can slide down when it shrinks, so you can prevent the cake from cracking). Line the round cake pan with the parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan and drop the pan lightly on the counter to raise the air bubbles out of the batter.
6. Place the cake pan on a baking sheet. Pour some hot water into the baking sheet. Bake at 170C (338F) for 15 minutes, 160C (320F) for 15 minutes, then stop the heat and bake with the remaining heat for 15 minutes.
7. When it is done, place the cake pan on a wire rack to cool completely.

You can either serve immediately or chill in the fridge before serving! It will slightly get hard in the fridge, so leave at room temperature for a few minutes before you serve.

You can brush the cake with some apricot jam syrup and/or dust with powdered sugar (confectioner's sugar) to finish. You can serve it with whipped cream if desired.

How does it taste like?
For me I think if I cook it a little bit more it'll be perfect!
My younger brother and sister said 'sedap!'
And the cake finished the next day.
 Is that enough for a review? Haha.

This is definitely worth a try! Happy trying! :)

The Opener:5

It is You we worship and You we ask for help.


"Ya Allah I don't want to do what I want to do anymore. I want to do what You want me to do. Because what You want me to do is better for me than what I want to do for myself. Because You are my caretaker, You love me more than I can imagine and Your love is coming all the time. Ya Allah You have been so good to me I surrender to You, I sign up."

Serious Reminder

#keeponstruggling

How sincere are we to Allah?

Early morning we wake up.
To the toilet we go, wash up our face and take wuduk.

Sit on the prayer mat.
Read His love letter.

Go to work.
Driving a smart little car.
Listening to songs.
Beautiful scenery along the way.
Work.
Pray Zuhr.
Eat.
Work a little bit more.
Go back.
Everyone is rushing.
To see their family at home.

Eat.
Pray Maghrib.
The time between Maghrib and Isyak.
Hmm what to do?
Pray Isyak.
Another chapter of His love letter.

Ikhlas.
It's awesome and it's difficult.
May Allah grant us sincerity in our every single movement. May our deeds being presented to Allah in the most beautiful way.










Few tips shared by Abdul Rahman Chao in http://www.muslimlinkpaper.com:

1. Sincere Supplication

Guidance is in the hands of Allah only. Whomsoever Allah guides will never go astray. The hearts of believers are in hands of Allah. He controls it fully. Why not directly ask the one who controls your heart to make you sincere in all of your actions?

2.Doing Actions Privately

Actions that are done privately are more likely to be sincere. With people around, it is very difficult to be sincere. The believing servant of Allah should always try to hide his good deeds as well as sins from the eyes and ears of people.

3.Reflecting on the Actions of the Righteous

Do not look at the people around you for inspiration. Look to the people of the past from the pious predecessors. Reading the biographies of the companions of the Prophet (Peace be upon him) and stories of the righteous will increase one’s sincerity for Allah.

4.Fearing Allah’s Rejection of Your Actions

Belittling one’s good deeds will lead to perseverance and self struggle in sincerity. Preservation here means that one should not be proud and be in admiration of ones good deeds. Believing that one’s actions might be rejected by Allah will remind oneself to struggle even harder next time in assuring pure unadulterated sincerity.

5.Ignoring What People Say

One of the biggest trials to sincerity is when the heart leaps with joy when it hears the praise of other people. People will always praise the righteous and condemn the evildoer. Ignore praise and fear from evil sins. Ibn Jawzi said: "Leave what people say and erase one’s honor from their hearts through good deeds and sincerity and concealment of oneself is what raised the elevated people." The erasing of one’s honor from people heart means to not heed to how people might honor you. Although one should always strive to be loved by all, it is dangerous to think that the honor people have for you will do you any good in getting your actions accepted by Allah.

May Allah guide us along the way.
