Bukalah hatimu untuk ditarbiyyah oleh Allah~
-----------------------
Tarbiyyah is different for each individual, and i got a taste of my own recently.
i just got back to my hometown after about an hour on the train, where i took a wrong step, and fell. yes, i fell. again. before this, i tripped at a restaurant, creating a bit of a fuss there. no damage was done but ya Allah i was so embarrassed. after a lot of thinking(muhasabah), i realised that, Allah was teaching me. "Don't be boastful!" He warned.
i felt so ashamed of myself. i held back tears not wanting to show it to my ayahanda. more to that, ayahanda pointed out that our little gathering(daurah) sounds a bit illegal. all the more reason why tears to pool in my eyes.
speaking of which...
the gathering was seriously osem! it's actually called mukhayyam(camping) but we didn't really camp, instead we stayed one night in a dorm. :) the place was called Teratak Riverview, situated by Sungai Bernam, the river that divides Selangor and Perak. and masyaAllah, the place was beautiful. Subhanallah, seeing it makes you fall in love with it's Creator. seriously.
i took my first dip in a river here! wee!
we started off our circle of happiness(bulatan gumbira) by studying the Quran, surah at-Taubah, verse 38-47. here are the verses that we were told to memorise:
O you who have believed, what is [the matter] with you that, when you are told to go forth in the cause of Allah , you adhere heavily to the earth? Are you satisfied with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But what is the enjoyment of worldly life compared to the Hereafter except a [very] little. (9:38)
Go forth, whether light or heavy, and strive with your wealth and your lives in the cause of Allah . That is better for you, if you only knew. (9:41) credit
Quranic Generation? ._.?
the Quranic Generation is the generation where, life is lived wholly by the teachings of the Quran ONLY.
living by the Quran means, leaving all the time-wasting, heart-darekening(?), sin-collecting Jahiliyyah.
living by the Quran means, sleeping, eating, breathing, do everything in the name of Allah.
and what traits? ._____.??
the Quranic Generation is the kind of generation that..
depends only on Allah
If Allah should aid you, no one can overcome you; but if He should forsake you, who is there that can aid you after Him? And upon Allah let the believers rely. (3:160)
in everything they(we) do, they maintain their tawakkal and dependence on Allah and Allah only.
not on senseis, on parents, on bosses or whatsoever. just Allah. feels content just by knowing Allah is there. always :)
holds firmly and strictly on Islamic principles
everything is done based on their imaan's judgement. kinda like the saying, "tepuk dada tanya iman". like when ur faced with two choices; to go to usrah, or to the movies? that is the question~
example; if your iman is on a high, chances are high that you choose usrah. on the other hand, if ur iman is on the low, you'd choose movies. so...which are you? which am i...? hmm.
loves in the name of Allah
Mu'adh said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, 'Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, says, "Those who love one another for My majesty will have minbars of lights. The Prophets and martyrs(people who die in the name of Allah) will envy them."'" [at-Tirmidhi] credit
no, not the kind of love that gets you in trouble(no such thing as loving in the name of Allah in this case, it's the kind of love that makes friendships and family ties stronger.
BUT, in order to get into this beautiful relationship, it starts from ourselves ;) WE are the one who have to reach out to them.
and lastlyy
holds a formidable loyalty to Allah and His messenger
THIS.
everything is done to please Allah. believe that everything we receive from Allah is the best for us, and is actually a responsibility. an item lent by Allah and is meant to be used wisely. believe that Allah entrusts us with so much blessings, and that He will question how we used it during The Day of Judgement. *shudder
wow.
sounds hard, eh? well, you'll never know unless you try, ye dok? ;D
it's a tough process, for both you and i. good things never come easy right?
because my dear friend, the road is bitter and painful because Jannah is oh so sweet <3
