IFTAR - MAJLIS BERBUKA PUASA

"Iftar tu ape bang?"

" Bang, khamis ni de iftar x?"

" Bang, saya x pose la segan nak join..."

"Kalau nak datang boleh x bang? tapi saya x pose. Boleh ke?"

Paling best soalan...

"Saya nak join tp xde duit la bang..."

ada banyak lagi soalan2 yang diterima...ni sebahagian je.

Iftar ni maksudnya berbuka puasa..tu dalam bahasa arab..

Kenapa iftar buat hari khamis?

sunnah Rasulullah saw berpuasa setiap hari isnin dan khamis... jadi kami mengambil kesempatan untuk mengamal sunnah Rasul saw secara berjemaah. kerana kalau buat ramai-ramai (berjemaah) lebih rasa kuat kalau nak bandingkan buat sorang-sorang. lagipun akhir zaman ini sunnah Rasulullah saw semakin dilupakan dan terpinggir. Maka Rasulullah saw telah berjanji kepada umatnya diakhir zaman, siapa-siapa yang mengamalkan sunnah rasul saw dikala orang ramai melupakannya, maka kejayaan bagi mereka dan pahalanya umpama berjihad dijalan Allah walau mengamalkan sunnah ku yang kecil tetapi istiqamah...

Insya-Allah iftar akan kita amalkan setiap minggu hari khamis di masjid UniSel secara berjemaah dan isiqamah walau berdua...Bayaran buat masa ni masih kekal RM 5.00 tapi kalau minyak naik lagi x turun-turun, x boleh dah la kekal...bergantung kepada cuaca.

"Bang, mahalnya RM5.00...kalau makan kat kedai RM5.00 tu dapat nasi ayam dan milo ais. Tapi kalau time iftar lauk biasa dan air sirap je...pas tu x kenyak plak tu..kadang2 tu x cukup smp x dapat makan langsung..."

Kami serba salah kalau de y x dapat makan tp dah bayar...tapi terkilan gak yang datang makan tapi x bayar ( yang mampu bayar )... kami amat mengalu-alukan mereka yang tidak mampu untuk bayar datang bersama-sama bersama kami mengimarahkan program. Kerana mencari redha Allah itu yang kami lebih utamakan.

tetapi bagi mereka yang berkemampuan, seharusnya memahami sahabat-sahabat lain yang berkorban harta mereka. kerana RM5.00 sebahagian kecilnya adalah sedekah kepada mereka yang tidak berkemampuan. menampung mereka. bukan menampung yang berkemampuan. apakah kita sanggup menzalimi sahabat2 kita lainnya?

Apa yang dikejar, apa yang dicari bukanlah keuntungan, bukanlah kemegahan, bukanlah nama, bukanlah juga kebanggaan. kami mengharapkan redha Ilahi kerana mengerti dengan gajaran Syurga Allah.

Marilah wahai sahabat-sahabat ku, kita bersama-sama menegakkan sunnah Rasulullah saw dikala manusia melupakannya. walaupun tidak mampu berpuasa, hadirlah juga meraikan sahabat-sahabat kita yang berpuasa kerana besar pahalanya disisi Allah. dan marilah bersama-sama berniat berpuasa kerana kalau x berpuasa tapi dapat pahala niat.

TEN THOUGHTS TO PONDER

1. Remember that your Lord forgives those who ask Him for forgiveness, and He accepts the repentance of those who repent, and He accepts those who come back to Him.
2. Show mercy to the weak and you will be happy; give to the needy and you will be well; do not bear grudges and you will be healthy.
3. Be optimistic, for Allah is with you, and the angles are praying for forgiveness for you, and Paradise awaits you.
4. Wipe away your tears, think well of your Lord, and chase away your worries by remembering the blessings that Allah has bestowed upon you.
5. Do not think that this world is ever perfect for anyone. There is no one on the face of the earth who gets all that he wants or is free from all kinds of distress.
6. Be like a tall tree with high aims if a stone is thrown at it, it simply lets its fruits drop.
7. have you ever heard that grief brings back what has been lost, or that worry corrects mistakes? So why grieve and worry then?
8. Do not expect trials and calamities, rather expect peace, safety and good health, if Allah wills.
9. Extinguish the flames of hatred from your heart by forgiving everyone who has ever hurt you.
10. Ghusl, wudu’, siwak, and being organized are effective medicines for all kinds of distress and worry.

THING ABOUT IT …

1. Be like the bee, which lands on fragrant flowers and fresh branches.
2. You do not have time to seek out people’s defects and mistakes.
3. If Allah is with you, then whom do you have to fear? If Allah is against you, then what hope do you have?
4. The fire of envy consumes the body, and excessive jealousy is like a raging fire.
5. If you do not prepare today, then you will not be able to do anything tomorrow.
6. Withdraw peacefully from places where idle arguments are going on.
7. Let your morals and attitudes be ever more beautiful than a garden.
8. Do act of kindness and you will be the happiest of people.
9. Leave people to their Creator, leave the envier to death, and forget about your enemy.
10. the pleasure of haram actions is followed by regret, loss and punishment.

O' Allah!

{Whosoever is in the heavens and on earth begs of Him. Every day He has a matter to bring forth (such as giving honor to some, disgrace to some, life to some, death to some, etc)!}

(Qur'an 55:29)

When there is a violent storm and the seas are turbulent, the occupants of the boat call out, O' Allah!...

When the camel-driver and the cravan are lost in the desert, they call out, O' Allah!...

When disaster and calamity occur, the afflicted call out, O' Allah!...

When doors are shut before those who seek to enter through them and barriers are placed before those who are in need - they all cry out, O' Allah!...

When all plans end in failure, all hope is lost, and the path becomes constricted, O' Allah, is called out.

When the earth, vast and wide though it is, is straitened for you, causing your soul to feel constricted, call out, O' Allah!...

To Allah ascend all good words, the sincere supplication, the tears of the innocent, and the invocations of the afflicted. Hands and eyes are extended to Him in times of hardship and misfortune. The tongue chants, cries out, and mentions His name.

The heart finds peace, the soul finds rest, the nervest are relaxed, and the intellect is awakened - these are all achieved when we remember Allah, Subhaanahnahu wa Ta'alaa - "How perfect He is, the Exalted."

{Allah is very Gracious and Kind to His Slaves.}

(Qur'an 42:19)

Allah : the most beautiful of names, the truest combination of letters, and the most precious of words.

{Do you know of any that is similar to Him? [There is nothing like unto Him and He is the All-Hearer, the All-seer]}

(Qur'an 19:65)

Allah : He is thought of when absolute richness, strength, glory and wisdom come to mind.

{Whose is the kingdom this Day? [Allah Himself will reply to His question] : It is Allah's - the One, the Irresistible!}

(Qur'an 40:16)

Allah : He is Thought of when kidness, care, relief, affection, and mercy come to mind.

{And whatever of blessings and good things you have, it is from Allah}

(Qur'an 16:53)

O' Allah, Possessor of Majesty, Magnificence, and Might, let comfort take the place of sorrow, make happiness come after sadness, and let safety take the place fear.

O' Allah Soothe burning hearts with the coolness of faith.

O' our Lord : Give peaceful slumber to the restless and serenity to disturbed souls.

O' our Lord : Guide the confused ones to your light and those that are astray to your guidance.

O' Allah : Remove evil whispers from our hearts and replace them with light, destroy falsehood with truth, and crush the evil plots of the Devil with your army of Angels.

O' Allah : Remove from us misery, affliction, and anxiety.

We seek refuge in You from fearing anything except You, from depending upon anyone except upon You, from invoking anyone other than You. You re the Supreme Patron and an excellent Protector...
