A Good Heart

December 23rd, 2008

salam…

as far as i can remember..the last time i attended a discipline-talk-about when i was once a school prefect in 1997-1998..wow…dats almost a decade..(im old!)

well..do’s and dont’s are much similar to the one i attended at my work place…or maybe not..maybe..this one is more illogical..narrow minded..and not working at all..

“dont smoke during working time…”

“flush toilet after use”

“dont use other ppl’s ID card”

what are those i wonder? my reason of saying so is that…gosh!?..do we even need to be reminded of all those at this kind of age? i just dont understand..

if ppl still cant manage to use their BRAIN to choose between right or wrong..i think an MRI scanning is highly needed soonest possible..even robbers, snatchers, drug-addict know what they do is absolutely wrong…

“Back to Basic” is my company’s Engineering Department’s motto…well..yes…any dream to be realized starts from what..?..(think..think)..of course a DREAM..right? will any chefs get to make a 5-storey wedding cae without any will?or skills?or interest?

do you begin to read my points by now?what?…still blur?here goes some more..

to be an excellent human beings ourselves..the most most most important thing is our ‘heart’…one of our Prophet’s saying..

“Ingatlah bahawa dalam jasad itu ada sekeping daging, jika ia baik, maka baiklah jasad seluruhnya dan jika is rosak, rosaklah jasad seluruhnya. Ingatlah, itu adalah hati”.Hadith 40; Imam Nawawi:6.

which is very true indeed..without saying, one can just give his/her seat to a pregnant woman in LRT..without hoping for any reward…one would just put his/her hand in the pockets to search for some coins to be given to a blind man by the roadside..without anyone seeing…one would never throw any used tissue or teh tarik plastic bag from the car window..and without any acknowledgement of others…one would get up early in the morning…just to pray to God…to express gratitude and to realize that he/she is just one of His tiny creation in the creation of the heaven and earth… 

what we need my dear friends is…a manual on how to have a good heart…and believe me..there’s nothing more detail and specific than those words of God’s and His Messenger (SAW)..which is the best way to develop human attitude and behaviour…and less of lame human rules and regulations..

see how Islam taught us on cleanliness…Prophet’s saying

“Takutlah dua perkara yang menyebabkan dilaknat orang”. Sahabat bertanya:”Apakah dua perkara yang menyebabkan dilaknat orang?”Baginda menjawab “Orang yang membuang najis di tengah jalan orang ramai atau tempat teduh mereka”. (Riwayat Muslim)

how about this one..

“Sesungguhnya aku hanya menerima sembahyang dari orang yang melakukannya dengan tawadhuk kerana keagunganKu dan tidak memanjangkan lidahnya (mengumpat, mencerca) atas makhlukKu, dan tidak membiasakan diri melakukan maksiat serta kederhakaan terhadapKu, is telah menghabiskan siangnya utk mengingati Aku, dan ia selalu mengasihani orang2 miskin dan perantau yang kehabisan bekal, janda2 miskin yang memerlukan pertolongan, dan mengasihani orang yang mengalami kemalangan. Itulah sinar cahayanya dari perbuatan orang yang saleh, bagaikan cahaya matahari. Aku melindungi dirinya dari kebesaranKu, dan Aku perintahkan malaikatKu untuk menjaganya. Aku jadikan baginya cahaya terang benderang dalam gelap gelita dan dalam kejahilannya rasa lapang dada, bandingannya di antara makhlukKu adalah bagaikan syurga Firdaus di dalam syurga” ( Hadith Qudsi riwayat Abdullah bin Waqid al-Harrani)

there are a lot more excellent values to be discovered…believe me…Islam is a way of life…It is not to be separated from our daily lives…It should lies within US…secularism will not going to work out…the one who knows us the most is none other than Al-Khaliq (The One and Only Creator)…He’s the creator…!He is the inventor…can any other replace Him…or can any other invent anything greater than His?…

Hold tight to His words (Al-Quran)…and what has been taught by His Messenger….then you’ll become someone special…insyaAllah..

may we be placed among His beloved ones in the eternal after-life…insyaAllah..janji Allah pasti benar..
