Lion Submissive to Sayyidina Abdullaah bin Umar



Sayyidina Abdullaah bin Umar (Ra) was travelling on a journey when he saw a crowd of people standing by the road. "What is the matter with those people?" Sayyidina Abdullaah bin Umar (Ra) enquired.

"There is a lion on the road frightening them," came the reply. SayyidinaAbdullaah bin Umar (Ra) got off his animal, walked up to the lion and held its ears. He then twisted its ears, slapped its nape and moved it off the road. 
Picture for illustration only

Thereafter, he said (to himself), "Rasulullaah (PBUH) did not lie to you. I heard Rasulullaah (PBUH) say: 'Only that which man fears will be given the upper hand over him and if he fears none besides Allah, Allah will not allow anything else to gain the upper hand over him. Man is also handed over to that which he entertains hopes in and if he pins his hopes in none other than Allah, Allah will not hand him over to anyone else."

Bahagian Bawah Dagu Wanita Termasuk Aurat Ataupun Tidak?

Ini adalah email pertanyaan melalui http://mufti.perlis.gov.my/:

Jabatan Mufti Negeri Perlis telah menerima pertanyaan hukum dari En abdullah azzam melalui e-mel. Berikut adalah penjelasan hukum yang diberikan dan telah diperakui oleh S.S. Mufti Dr. Juanda bin Jaya.

Soalan:
Adakah dagu wanita termasuk aurat (anggota) yang dilarang memperlihatkannya.. saya ada melihat wanita yang memakai tudung dan menutup dagunya..minta penjelasan wallahua'lam


Jawapan:
Dagu wanita tidak termasuk di dalam aurat. Barangkali yang dimaksudkan oleh saudara iaitulah bahagian bawah dagu wanita. Maka jawapannya, bahagian bawah dagu wanita adalah TERMASUK AURAT yang wajib ditutup. Ini kerana bahagian tersebut tidak termasuk dari batas-batas wajah yang boleh dibuka. al-Syirazi berkata: 

والوجه ما بين منابت شعر الرأس إلى الذقن ومنتهى اللحيين طولاً، ومن الأذن إلى الأذن عرضاً
Maksudnya: “Dan wajah itu apa yang ada diantara tempat tumbuh rambut kepala hingga ke dagu dan hujung kedua-dua rahang, secara panjang. Lebarnya pula dari telinga hingga ke telingan satu lagi.” 

Kata al-Nawawi di dalam al-Majmu’ ketika memberi komentar kepada perkataan al-Syirazi ini:
هذا الذي ذكره المصنف في حد الوجه هو الصواب الذي عليه الأصحاب ونص عليه الشافعي رحمه الله في الأم
Maksudnya: “Yang disebut oleh penulis (al-Syirazi) tentang batas wajah, ianya benar seperti pandangan al-Ashab, dan telah dinyatakan perkara ini oleh al-Syafie RH di dalam kitabnya al-Umm.”

Wallahu a’lam.

Sedekah Sayyidatina 'Aishah r.anha


     Suatu ketika Sayyidatina 'Aishah r.anha telah diberi dua guni yang penuh berisi wang dirham. di dalam guni-guni itu terdapat wang yang berjumlah lebih seratus ribu dirham. Sayyidatina 'Aishah r.anha telah meminta mangkuk. Mangkuk-mangkuk itu telah diisi dengan dirham dan mulalah beliau membahagi-bahagikan wang itu sehingga petang. Kesemua wang itu telah habis dibahagikan sehingga tidak meninggalkan satu dirham pun. Sedangkan pada hari itu beliau sedang berpuasa. Ketika tiba waktu berbuka puasa beliau memberitahu orang suruhannya," bawalah apa-apa untukku berbuka puasa."

     Orang suruhannya telah membawa sepotong roti dan minyak zaitun sambil berkata," bagus sekali jika dapat membeli daging dengan satu dirham kerana kita dapat berbuka puasa dengan daging."

     Beliau berkata," apa faedahnya?Sekarang baru engkau hendak membebel. Sekiranya engkau ingatkan saya terlebih dahulu sudah pasti saya membelikan daging itu." ( Takzkiratul-Huffaz )


Keterangan

     Sayyidatina 'Aishah r.anha biasanya menerima hadiah seumpama itu daripada Sayyidatina Amir Mu' awiyah r.anhu, Sayyidatina 'Abdullah bin Zubair r.anhu dan beberapa orang sahabat yang lain. Oleh kerana zaman itu ialah zaman kemenangan demi kemenangan, rumah-rumah dipenuhi dengan wang emas seumpama biji-bijian. Namun demikian, beliau masih menjalani satu kehidupan yang begitu ringkas dan terlalu sederhana, sehingga beliau sendiri terpaksa diperingatkan mengenai keperluan makanan untuk berbuka puasa. walaupun beliau telah membahagi-bahagikan wang sebanyak seratus ribu dirham tetapi sedikit pun beliau tidak teringat bahawa dirinya sedang berpuasa dan memerlukan wang untuk membeli daging.

     Kisah seumpama ini telah menjadi begitu asing bagi kita pada zaman ini sehingga kebenaran kisah seumpama ini mula diragui oleh orang ramai. Namun, kehidupan yang umum pada zaman itu malah ratusan peristiwa seumpama itu tidak sedikitpun menghairankan bagi mereka yang berpengatahuan tentang sejarah para sahabat r.anhuma. Malah ada banyak kisah tentang Sayyidatina 'Aisyah r.anha sendiri yang hampir sama dengan peristiwa ini.

     Pada suatu hari beliau sedang berpuasa dan tidak ada sesuatu pun di rumah kecuali sepotong roti. Seorang fakir telah datang dan meminta makanan lalu beliau menyuruh orang suruhannya memberikan roti itu kepada orang fakir tersebut. Orang suruhannya berkata," Untuk berbuka nanti tiada apa-apa makanan di rumah."

     Beliau berkat," Apakah salahnya? Berikan kepingan roti tersebut kepadanya." Maka orang suruhannya itu telah memberikan roti itu. ( Muwatto' ) 

     Suatu ketika beliau membunuh seekor ular. Beliau melihat dalam mimpinya ada orang memberitahunya bahawa," Kamu telah membunuh seorang islam."
     Sebagai jawapan Sayyidatina 'Aishah r.anha berkata," Sekiranya dia seorang Islam pasti dia tidak akan masuk ke rumah isteri-isteri Rasulullah SAW."

     Orang tadi menjawab bahawa orang itu masuk dengan memakai hijab. Beliau lantas terjaga daripada tidurnya dan telah menyedekahkan dua belas ribu dirham sebagai tebusan ( diat ) kerana menumpahkan darah seorang Islam.

     Sayyidatina 'Urwah r.anhu berkata," Suatu ketika saya lihat Sayyidatina 'Aishah r.anha bersedekah tujuh puluh ribu dirham sedangkan beliau sendiri memakai pakaian bertampun." ( Tobaqat )

Sayyidatina Aishah (Radhiyallahu anha) and Fear of Allah




Who does not know about the love that the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam) had for his dear wife Sayyidatina Aishah (Radhiyallahu anha)? It is said that when he was asked whom he loved most, he replied, "Aishah". She was so well-versed in Islamic jurisprudence that many eminent Sahabah would go to her for solving their problems in this field.
 
Jibrail used to greet her with 'Assalamo alaikum'. The Prophet once told her that she would be his wife in the Paradise. When she was slandered by the Munafiqin, Allah exonerated her from the slander and confirmed her innocence by revealing verses in the Qur'an. According to Ibn Sa'd (Radhiyallahuanho), Sayyidatina Aishah (Radhiyallahu anha) once enumerated as many as ten special virtues that Allah had given her over the other wives of the Prophet (Sallallaho alaihe wasallam).

In spite of all these privileges and virtues, she feared Allah so much that she was often heard saying; I wish I was a tree, so that I could be always busy in Allah's tasbih and be absolved of reckoning on the Day of Judgment".  "I wish I had been a stone or a clod of earth". "I wish I had been a leaf of tree or a blade of grass".  "I wish I had not been born at all".
