Islamic Exemplary Stories

Cannot pray Khusuk & Abu Bakr As-Siddiq continue the habits of the Prophet.

CAN'T PRAY KHUSUK

The Prophet was with his companions while waiting for the time of prayer to arrive, sitting\-sitting while discussing on the terrace of the mosque of Medina. In the midst of his warm discussion, a friend of his asked,

"yes, Apostle, I cannot pray solemnly. How can I pray khusuk?"

"It is very difficult to pray fervently, it is necessary to practice and learn meditation" replied the Prophet.

Ali bin Abi Talib came and answered,

"I can, Messenger of Allah"

The Prophet immediately challenged his cousin,

"If you can pray solemnly, I will give this gift of turban," while showing the turban that will be given to Ali if he can pray solemnly.

Ali began to pray seriously. Meanwhile, the friends were busy discussing with the Prophet. In the first raka'at, Ali can perform prayers solemnly, as well as until the second raka'at. But before the greeting, suddenly he remembered the gift that the Prophet would give. Ali finished his prayer with a greeting. After the prayer, Ali went straight to the Prophet and said,

"On the first Raka'at until near the end, I can carry it out solemnly. But before the greeting, I remember the gift, be my prayer not solemn."

A solemn prayer will be difficult to perform, but we must try it. People whose prayers are solemn will get their own luck. God says:

"Those who believe are fortunate, and those who are sincere in their prayers."

_Hopefully we can perform the prayer solemnly. Amens....

ABU BAKR AS-SIDDIQ CONTINUED THE CUSTOM OF THE APOSTLE SAW.

In the corner of the market of Medina, there was a blind Jewish beggar. His work persuaded people not to approach the Prophet Muhammad. He thought that Muhammad Saw was a lunatic, a liar, a sorcerer. He said, 'He said,

"When you approach him (Rasulullah Saw), then you will be influenced." But every morning the Prophet came to the Jew and gave him food.

After the Prophet died, Abu Bakr asked Siti Aisyah,

"My son, are there any habits of your husband that I haven't done?"

"My father, you are a master of the sunna and there is hardly a single custom of the prophet that you have not done except one."

"What is it?"

Every morning the Prophet went to the end of the market with food for a Jewish beggar. The next day, Abu Bakr went to the market with food to give to beggars. Abu bakr went to the beggar and gave him the food. When Abu Bakr began to bribe him, the beggar was angry, rebuking,

"Who are you?!"

Abu bakr replied,

"I am a man who used to come to you"

"No! You are not a person who comes here!" the blind beggar argued, "the man who used to come to me always bribed me but first mashed the food.after that he gave it to me," the beggar continued his words.

The burning ash cried as he said,

"I am not the one who comes to you, I am his friend, the noble one is gone. He is the Prophet Muhammad."

At once the beggar wept and finally worshiped in front of Abu Bakr, and from then on he became a Muslim.

A GIFT FROM HELL

On the day of the Resurrection the angel of death will shout at Satan: "Stop your curse Satan and feel the pain of death as felt by people\- those whom you have misled in the few centuries that you have lived and this is the day that God has appointed for you, so where are you going to run?." 

       When Satan heard it, he tried to run away, but wherever he went the angel of death remained before him. There was no place for him to hide. Then he ran to the tomb of Adam and said: "Because of you I have a curse." Then the devil asked the angel of death: "What drink and sex will I be subjected to?" Then the angel answered: "You shall be given a drink from the Hell of Ladha, as you shall receive is like the torment of the scribes of hell and multiplied." 

       Hearing this, the devil rolled on the ground screaming with all his voice, then he ran from west to east and finally to where he was first sent down. There he was stopped by the angel Zabaniah with a chain in his hand. 

       At that time the earth was like fire because it was surrounded by the angel Zabaniah who stabbed with a bull from the Hell of Ladha so that Satan felt the sacred sect of death. At that time the Prophet Adam and Siti Eve will be called to see Satan. Then pray: "O Allah, you have perfected Your favor to us."
