Nabi ALLAH Ayyub a.s , seorang nabi yang telah dikurniakan ALLAH pelbagai nikmat kesenangan termasuk kekayaan harta, kerajaan yang luas, isteri dan anak-anak yang soleh solehah. Sebagaimana manusia lain yang beriman kepada ALLAH , Nabi Ayyub tidak terlepas juga dengan ujian-ujian yang ditimpakannya oleh ALLAH bagi menguji tahap keimanan hamba-Nya yang taat itu.
Syaitan yang tidak senang dengan sifat tawadu’ dan bersyukur yang ada pada Nabi Ayyub kerana kekayaan yang diberi kepadanya langsung tidak membuatkannya lalai beribadat kepada ALLAH. Lalu syaitan berjumpa ALLAH untuk menyatakan hasratnya untuk menghasut Nabi Ayyub dan menggoyahkan pegangan aqidahnya. Syaitan juga meminta ALLAH agar segala nikmat yang diberi kepada Nabi Ayyub ditarik semua sekali. Tetapi ALLAH tahu Nabi Ayyub tetap utuh imanya walaupun diuji ujian-ujian yang berat kepada dirinya. ALLAH memperkenankan permintaan syaitan bagi mempertontonkan kepada syaitan kepatuhan Nabi Ayyub kepada-Nya dalam setiap keadaan tidak kira susah atau senang.
Nabi Ayyub ditimpa malang satu-persatu. Hasil tanamannya tidak subur , harta semakin susut, anak-anak Nabi Ayyub pual ditarik nyawanya dan ujian yang paling besar , menghidapi penyakit yang mengerikan. Bahana penyakit tersebut menyebabkan rakyatnya takut berjumpa dengannya keran dikhuatiri berjangkit dengan mereka. Walaupun dalam keadaan sebegitu, Nabi Ayyub tetap berzikir kepada ALLAH dan membuatkan rasa geram syaitan makin membuak-buak. Syaitan mendapat jalan , untuk meggoda isteri seperti yang dibuatnya untuk megusir Nabi Adam dari syurga.
Dalam keadaan serba kekurangan dan lemahnya iman , isteri Nabi Ayyub termakan hasutan syaitan itu. Isteri Nabi Ayyub berjumpa suaminya lalu berkata “Wahai suamiku, sampai bilakah kita hidup disiksa ALLAH seperti sekarang? Aku cukup merindukan kesenangan yang kita kecapi dahulu bersama anak-anak, sahabat-sahabat, rakyat, kesihatan dan harta yang banyak.Engkau mohonlah kepada ALLAH agar kita semua dibebaskan dari segala penderitaan dan musibah yang berpanjangan ini”
Nabi Ayyub menjawab “Isteriku , kau menangisi kebahagiaan dan kesejahteraan yang ALLAH kurniakan kepada keluarga kita dan engkau juga memintaku memohon kepada ALLAH agar dibebaskan segala kepayahan?”. Aku ingin bertanya kepadamu, “berapa lama kita diberi kenikmatan kemewahan , makmur dan sejahtera?”. Jawab isterinya, “sudah berpuluh-puluh tahun”. Tanya Nabi Ayyub lagi , “penderitaan yang kita tanggung ini sudah berapa lama?”. Jawab isteri, “7 tahun”. “Sebenarnya aku malu” kata Nabi Ayyub lagi. “Kita baru ditimpa kesusahan dalam 7 tahun padahal kesenangan yang diperoleh dahulu bertahun-tahun lamanya, tetapi ingin mohon kembali kepada ALLAH lagi kesenangan?”. Sambungnya lagi, “Engkau telah termakan hasutan syaitan durjana , sehingga timbul rasa kesal atas takdir ALLAH ini dan menyebabkan imanmu menipis”
Setelah ditinggalkan isterinya, Nabi Ayyub tinggallah keseorangan di rumah tanpa ditemani sesiapun. Dia bermunajat kepada
ALLAH dengan sepenuh hati dan kasih sayangnya.
Kisah ini menunjukkan betapa sifat malu(malu yang bertempat) ini benteng daripada hasutan syaitan dalam diri manusia. Mustahil bagi orang yang beriman tiada sifat mahmudah(terpuji) ini. Sebab itulah malu itu sebagai ‘komponen’ penting dalam iman seseorang. Kadang-kadang bila manusia ditimpa musibah misalnya , penyakit mereka cepat meradang dan marahkan tuhan. Perbuatan itu sudah tentu membuatkan mereka menjadi orang yang kufur. Kita sebagai orang Islam, hendaklah percaya segala musibah itu tanda ALLAH masih menyayangi diri kita sebab itulah iman kita diuji untuk menilai tahap keimanan kita kepada-Nya. ALLAH juga menunjukkan sifatnya Maha Pengampun apabila kita ditimpa penyakit dan bersabar maka penyakit itu menjadi suatu kifarah atau penghapus dosa kita yang terdahulu. Kita harus ingat segala nikmat yang kita kecapi boleh ditarik ALLAH bila-bila masa. Sepatutnya , malu dizahirkan dalam keadaan yang sukar tersebut menjadikan diri kita lebih hampir kepada ALLAH dan tidak berputus harap kepada-Nya. Barulah kita ini menjadi hamba-hamba yang taat dan mendambakan rahmatnya, insyallah…

Mekka is the center of the earth
Mekka is the center of the earth

The layers of the earth
In this short study , when contemplating about the miracles of God in this universe , I will show the miracles in the creation of the earth though many people go unmindful of them . God says in the Holy Quran what means " And in the earth are portents for those whose faith is sure " (Al-Zaryat :20) According to seismology , the earth , from the surface to its center , is composed of three layers and these with the secondary ones form seven layers ( figure 1) , God refers to this wel-established fact in the Holy Quran , God says in the Holy Quran in this regard what means ( Allah it is who hath created seven heavens, and of the earth the like thereof. The commandment cometh down among them slowly, that ye may know that Allah is Able to do all things, and that Allah surroundeth all things in knowledge ." (56:12)
These layers are:
1-The earth Crust
It the solid part that we live on , it varies in thickness , the maximum thickness is under the mountain while thickness is relatively smaller under oceans ; the earth crust can be scientifically categorized into two parts :
(a) The continental crust :
It is a rocky mass varying in thickness , the rate of thickness varies between 30Km-40Km in the continental areas while it reaches 70km under mountains
(b) The oceanic layer : it is a rocky structure encompassing the earth under oceans and the crust ; it is not harmonious structure with relatively thickness of 6km
The mantle : it is higher in dense than all the masses of the crust , it is complex in structure ; because of the high temperature and pressure , it is semi-rigid , it is the source of magma , it can be divided into three parts
(a)The upper mantle which goes deep to a depth of 400km under the crust .
(b) The transformation zone which extends from 400km to 1000km
© The lower mantle which extends from 1000 km to 2900km
3-The core of the earth , it is mainly composed of iron and Nickel and it can be divided into layers
a) The outer core which is in a liquid state , it extends from a depth of 2900km to 5080km
(b) The interior core : it is a rigid substance and it extends from a depth of
5080 to 6371 , it is believed that the internal core is the centre of the earth .
The rock layer of the earth on which we live has never been one mass but it is composed of what scientifically known as ( plates ) . God refers to this fact in the Holy Quran , ( And in the Earth are neighboring tracts, vineyards and ploughed lands, and date palms, like and unlike, which are watered with one water. And We have made some of them to excel others in fruit. Lo! herein verily are portents for people who have sense . ) (13-4)
These adjacent plates , that are mentioned in the Holy Quran , are that which are scientifically approved ( figure 2) , this is , now , the most well-established and the most scientifically well-supported fact , it is taught everywhere in the world universities , Geology department . The most well-known earth plates are :
1. Eurasian plate covering Asia and Europe
2.African plate covering Africa
3.The Arabian plate
4.Antarctic plate covering Antarctic
5. Australian plate, covering Australia (fused with Indian plate between 50 and 55 million years ago)
6. North American Plate covering North America and north-east Siberia
7. South American plate covering South America
8. Pacific Plate covering the Pacific Plate
9. The Indian Plate
10. The Caribbean plate
11. The Philippine plate
12. Scotia
Figure (1) The scientifically-known plates nowadays ( mentioned in the Holy Quran as the neighboring plates
The plates motion
the earth plates relatively moves slowly and constantly , it can't be seen directly but can be recoded with highly advanced technology ; (1M a year was reported by this technology as regard the movement of one of these plates)and can be experienced during earthquakes .
There are three main kinds of motions as regard the plate movement :
Convergent movement , divergent movement and transform movement, in the divergent movement , two adjacent plate move in the opposite directions moving away from each other and this often happens in mid-floor of seas and oceans causing dint or protuberance and this result in the gushing out of the magma under sea water , being molten and with high pressure , it cause large mass of water to evaporate ; the Holy Quran has referred to this scientific fact in the following verse (And by the sea set on fire ) (81:6)
Ocean floor rift typifies a certain kind of earthquakes followed by magma out-break . This magma is composed of complex substance higher in density than the rocks of the crust , scientific studies have proved that density of the upper mantle is much higher in density than that of the earth crust (0.4gramme/ cm3 ) , the more we go down , the more differences in density . The Holy Quran refers to this scientific fact ( When Earth is shaken with her (final) earthquake and Earth yieldeth up her burdens(99:1-2)
These magma forms what is now known as the volcanic mountains which are termed as mid-ocean ridges, which rise over the oceans and seas water forming islands , the earthquake and volcanoes co-occurrence can be illustrated in (figure -3) the convergence movement means that two adjacent plate approach each other with result that they collide with each other , as they go on colliding ,one of them or both slidedown as far as 100Km with the result that they have their structure changed turning into semi-molten state because of the high temperature - this process typifies the corroding
figure 2) the locations where the last recorded quakes took place in the last century dotted in black , these co-occur the locations of opening the mid-oceans (oceans colored blue) and also represent the locations of crust plates collisions ( colored green) taken from (Spencer ,2003)
(Of the ends of the plates or the ends of the earth as the Holy Quran depicts , this fact is mentioned in the Holy Quran in the following two Holy verses . God says in the Holy Quran in this regard what means ( See they not how We visit the land, reducing it of its outlying parts? (When) Allah doometh there is none that can postpone His doom, and He is swift at reckoning. " (13:41)
Also God says also in the Holy Quran what means "Nay, but We gave these and their fathers ease until life grew long for them. See they not how we visit the land, reducing it of its outlying parts? Can they then be the victors? " (21:44)
A plate might slide over the other forming structural mountains , these moves with the plates; these means that these mountains moves and that what the Holy Quran refers to , God says in the Holy Quran what means ( And when the hills are moved) (81:3)
Also God says in the Holy Quran what means " Had it been possible for a Lecture to cause the mountains to move, or the earth to be torn asunder, or the dead to speak, (this Quran would have done so). Nay, but Allah's is the whole command. Do not those who believe know that, had Allah willed, He could have guided all mankind? As for those who disbelieve, disaster ceaseth not to strike them because of what they do, or it dwelleth near their home until the threat of Allah come to pass. Lo! Allah faileth not to keep the tryst."
Also God says in the Holy Quran what means "And (bethink you of) the Day when We remove the hills and ye see the earth emerging, and We gather them together so as to leave not one of them behind.(18:47)
Earth quakes and volcanoes eruptions accompany the collision of the plates , the same thing happens in the transform movement which cause fissures as long as it goes lengthwise ; this is also a proof that plates are in continuous motion since they were first formed up till now .

Solat tanda bersyukur

Oleh RAMLI ABDUL HALIM
IBADAT solat itu adalah tiang agama. – Gambar hiasan
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEMBAHYANG lima waktu yang diwajibkan ke atas umat Nabi Muhammad SAW yang merupakan penghulu bagi segala anbia yang juga merupakan nabi dan rasul akhir zaman pada hakikatnya mempunyai nilai yang cukup tinggi kerana proses penerimaan perintah sembahyang oleh Rasulullah itu sendiri bukannya satu kerja mudah.
Berbanding dengan nabi-nabi lain yang mula melakukan sembahyang atas beberapa faktor, tetapi ibadat sembahyang yang diwajibkan ke atas umat Nabi Muhammad SAW diterima perintah oleh baginda secara terus dari Allah dengan baginda dibawa ke Sidratul Muntaha yang letaknya melepasi lapisan langit ketujuh.
Sidratul Muntaha itu sendiri adalah tempat yang tidak boleh didatangi oleh manusia lain, kecuali Nabi Muhammad, malah para malaikat juga tidak boleh ke sana.
Pemergian baginda SAW pada malam 27 Rejab tahun ke-11 kerasulan baginda (yakni dalam tahun 622 Masihi) dinamakan Israk Mikraj yang mana selain daripada menerima perintah kewajipan sembahyang, baginda juga berpeluang berjumpa dengan para nabi dan rasul, malah berkesempatan beramah mesra.
Rasulullah juga dipertontonkan dengan manusia yang menanggung seksa kerana memusuhi Allah dan Rasul-Nya serta mereka yang menikmati nikmat kerana bertakwa kepada Allah. Pada mulanya sembahyang yang diperintahkan adalah sebanyak 50 waktu.
Macam mana pun atas cadangan dan desakan Nabi Musa a.s. yang menyebabkan Rasulullah SAW berulang alik naik turun Sidratul Muntaha, maka jumlah waktu sembahyang hanya tinggal lima waktu sehari semalam sahaja.
Nabi Musa yang merasakan jumlah sembahyang lima waktu sehari semalam itu akan malas dilakukan oleh umat Nabi Muhammad meminta baginda membuat rayuan pengurangan jumlah waktu sembahyang tetap baginda enggan kerana malu kepada Allah.
Sebenarnya sembahyang lima waktu itu adalah himpunan sembahyang-sembahyang yang telah dilakukan oleh lima orang nabi dan rasul kerana ada sebab dan peristiwanya sebagaimana berikut;
SUBUH: Manusia pertama yang mengerjakan sembahyang subuh adalah Nabi Adam a.s. iaitu ketika baginda keluar dari syurga lalu diturunkan ke dunia.
Semasa dikeluarkan dari syurga dan diturunkan ke dunia kerana kesalahan memakan buah khuldi yang dilarang, yang pertama yang dilihat oleh bagi ialah kegelapan.
Baginda berasa sangat takut. Macam mana pun apabila fajar menjelang Subuh dunia mulai terang dan kerana bersyukur apabila dunia mula menampakkan akan terang dan tidak gelap lagi, Nabi Adam a.s. pun bersembahyang dua rakaat.
Rakaat pertama sembahyang baginda adalah sebagai tanda bersyukur kerana baginda terlepas dari kegelapan malam manakala rakaat kedua adalah bersyukur kerana siang telah menjelma.
Zuhur: Manusia pertama yang mengerjakan solat Zuhur ialah Nabi Ibrahim a.s. iaitu tatkala Allah SWT memerintahkan baginda agar menyembelih anak baginda Nabi Ismail a.s. sebagai melepas nazar baginda.
Seruan itu datang pada waktu tergelincir matahari (bertepatan dengan waktu Zohor), lalu sujudlah Nabi Ibrahim sebanyak empat rakaat.
Rakaat pertama kerana bersyukur bagi penebusan, rakaat kedua tanda bersyukur kerana dibukakan dukacitanya dan juga anaknya, rakaat ketiga: tanda bersyukur dan memohon keredaan Allah SWT manakala rakaat keempat tanda bersyukur kerana korbannya digantikan dengan tebusan kibas.
Asar: Manusia pertama yang mengerjakan solat Asar ialah Nabi Yunus a.s. tatkala baginda dikeluarkan oleh Allah SWT dari perut ikan Nun.
Ikan Nun telah memuntahkan Nabi Yunus di tepi pantai, sedang ketika itu telah masuk waktu Asar. Sebagai tanda syukur kerana dikeluarkan dari perut ikan Nun, maka Nabi Yunus a.s. bersembahyang empat rakaat kerana baginda telah diselamatkan oleh Allah daripada 4 kegelapan iaitu:
Rakaat pertama tanda syukur dari bebas dari kelam dengan kesalahan, rakaat kedua bersyukur kerana kelam dengan air laut, rakaat ketika kerana kelam malam dan rakaat keempat kerana kelam perut ikan Nun.
Maghrib: Manusia pertama yang mengerjakan solat Maghrib ialah Nabi Isa a.s. iaitu ketika baginda dikeluarkan oleh Allah SWT dari kejahilan dan kebodohan kaumnya, yang di kala itu telah terbenamnya matahari.
Kerana tanda bersyukur bagi sembahyang tiga rakaat dengan rakaat tanda bersyukur kerana baginda berjaya menafikan ketuhanan selain dari Allah yang Esa, rakaat tanda bersyukur kerana berjaya menafikan tohmahan ke atas bonda baginda Siti Mariam yang telah dituduh melakukan perbuatan sumbang manakala rakaat ketiga tanda bersyukur kerana berjaya menyatakan kepada kaum baginda bahawa Tuhan itu hanya satu iaitu Allah SWT, tiada dua atau tiganya.
Isyak: Manusia pertama yang mengerjakan solat Isyak ialah Nabi Musa a.s.. Pada ketika itu, Nabi Musa telah tersesat untuk mencari jalan kfeluar dari negeri Madyan.
Sedang dalam dadanya penuh dengan perasaan dukacita kerana sesat ekoran doa seorang alim yang diupah oleh Firaun agar mendoakan supaya Nabi Musa a.s.
Orang alim dan doanya sangat mustajab itu pada mulanya enggan akur kepada arahan Firaun dan enggan menerima upahan dalam bentuk jongkong emas kerana diketahuinya bahawa Nabi Musa a.s. adalah nabi dan rasul.
Hasil siasatan oleh pegawai-pegawai perisikan Firaun mendapati orang alim itu sangat sayangkan isteri dan dia adalah seorang suami yang sering mengalah kepada isteri.
Kelemahan itu diambil kesempatan oleh Firaun dengan memberi upah emas kepada isteri orang alim itu supaya meminta suaminya berdoa supaya Nabi Musa a.s. sesat di padang pasir negeri Madyan.
Bila diminta dan dirayu dan direngek oleh isterinya, orang alim itu tidak dapat menolak. Bagaimanapun, dia memberi syarat akan berdoa dalam kandang kuda.
Orang alim itu menyangka bila berdoa pada tempat yang kotor, doanya tidak akan mustajab. Macam mana pun doanya tetap mustajab dan Nabi Musa a.s. tersesat manakala orang alim itu mati dalam keadaan berdosa kerana mengikut kemahuan Firaun.
Bagaimana Allah SWT menghilangkan semua perasaan dukacitanya Nabi Musa a.s. apabila beliau akhirnya tidak lagi sesat dan ketika itu adalah waktu Isyak yang akhir. Sebagai tanda syukurnya, Nabi Musa bersembahyang empat rakaat dengan rakaat pertama tanda syukur kerana baginda akan dapat kembali ke pangkuan isteri dan kampung halaman. Rakaat kedua tanda bersyukur kerana dapat bersua kembali dan berganding bahu dengan saudara Nabi Harun a.s. bagi menyampaikan seruan Allah.
Rakaat ketiga pula kerana selamat daripada tindakan Firaun manakala rakaat keempat tanda bersyukur selamat daripada pengkhianatan anak Firaun terhadap baginda dan umat baginda yang bertakwa.
Ertinya kesemua waktu sembahyang yang diwajibkan ke atas umat Nabi Muhammad adalah merupakan amalan-amalan tanda ketakwaan terhadap Allah oleh para nabi dan rasul dan nilainya tidak boleh disamakan dengan apa jua bentuk kebendaan.
Kalau nabi dan rasul pun bersembahyang sebagai tanda syukur dan untuk melayakkan diri masuk ke syurga, siapa kita yang bukan nabi dan rasul untuk tidak sembahyang di samping melakukan pelbagai kemungkaran dengan bila mati kita mahukan syurga!
