SPIRIT AND DEATH
SPIRITUAL FLUSH (Read up!)
The air was hot, I preferred to sit under the shady banyan trees in the hospital environment. The doctor said I can go home today. So I just waited for Dad and Feli to pick me up.
While sitting alone, I thought about life. How could any human being who could and could be so evil sacrifice happiness, even the lives of others just for treasure and throne? how could anyone think that the dead could be brought back to life? I kept thinking and asking myself.
Still clear and powerful recorded in my memory, the figure of a mysterious creature summoned by his Uncle Sinta at that time. It's scary, but the shadow doesn't want to leave me.
Oh my God .. This world is so vast. Humans generally only see the world limited to the eyes, whereas ...many things are still beyond human reason but actually happen around us. For that we must be careful of anyone and anyone.
"Norris .... "
"Rians. When did you get here and why?"
"I'm sorry you didn't like meeting me, Sarah. I just want to apologize once again for everything that has happened," Rian said as he took a deep breath.
"Have ...didn't you also not want this to happen? you don't have bad intentions, do you?"
"For God's sake, not Sarah. But still I feel guilty, let alone your condition so this (Disability)."
"It's already. It's just, I'm very confused by what I just saw. But I'm sure it's not trauma. I'm a strong girl."
"Sarah, if you allow it and are willing, I can call someone for you and you can ask him about anything so that your heart can be much calmer."
"Who?"
"My uncle. He is an Ustaz and I have lived with him all this time. Yeah at least after my mom and dad moved out of town on work grounds. While I still want to stay in this city because I feel Sinta still needs me here."
"rian .... "
"It turns out that this incident is what made my heart restrained so I did not want to come with my parents to another city, but unfortunately what happened is at the expense of others. I'm so sorry for being so stupid and not knowing about anything. Again forgive me, Sarah."
"When can I meet your uncle, Rian?"
"When you want, Sarah."
"How about tonight we go to your house, Rian?"
"Alright, agreed. Later after coming home from the hospital, you rest for a while at home. Then the night after Isha's prayer, I will pick you up, as will Feli and your father. How's it?"
"Agreed."
*****
The sun has changed the moon, with the condition not yet strong and less stable, I still force myself to meet with his Uncle Rian. Not without cause, since that incident, I was not at all calm and even difficult to sleep. So I think I need something that strengthens my heart.
At 20:00 WIB, Rian came with his Uncle. Turns out Rian told me about what had happened a few days ago, to knock the Uncle's heart to visit me.
He brought me bread and fruit, and then held my forehead like a father to his son. "Subhanallah ... is very young" he said, looking at me.
"Uncle, this is Feli and this is Dad." Then Feli and Dad also greeted each other with his uncle Rian.
"We're just going there, Mr. Ustad," said Dad, sitting down with us.
"Yes .. I've heard from Rian. But as Rian continued his story, I thought about coming to visit so Sarah could rest better and not get the night wind first."
"Yes Mr. Ustadz, thank you very much for your attention" said Dad with a smile that seemed calm.
"Can I see Sarah's injury, sir?" asked my Uncle Rian to my father.
"Yes, please .... " So he pulled a little shirt up.
"It's up to her burn?" ask Uncle Rian.
"Yes Ustadz."
"Call me Ahmad!" he said while looking at Dad. "Sir Ahmad or Uncle alone can also yes, Sarah, Feli."
"Yes, sir," said Feli and I.
"Well, what's troubling you so much, Sarah?"
"About demons sir .. How are they really about humans? does such a partnership exist?"
"Eeeemh .. actually there is not cooperation, but hostility."
"But yesterday what I heard .. they were working together, not hostile. There's no way I've heard wrong, sir."
"Listen, Son!! Satan's hostility to humans continued until doomsday. After his expulsion from Jannah, he vowed to lead all of Adam's children away from the straight path. The devil and his followers have always improved their skills in seducing humans. This demon's oath is enshrined in the Qur’an,"
“The Devil said, “Because You have punished me for straying, I will really (block) them from Your straight path. Then I will come to them from the face and from behind them, from their right and from their left. And you will not find most of them grateful (obedient) (Al A’raf : 16 – 17)."
"From here we must be careful and ask Allah Ta’ala to be given hospitality and not tempted by Satan's tricks. The Prophet SAW teaches us to do’a to be read morning and evening. Do’a contains a request for a servant to be protected by Allah Ta’ala from the temptation of shetan from various directions as I mentioned just now."
اللَّهُمَّ احْفَظْنِي مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيَّ وَمِنْ خَلْفِي وَعَنْ يَمِينِي وَعَنْ شِمَالِي وَمِنْ فَوْقِي وَأَعُوذُ بِعَظَمَتِكَ أَنْ أُغْتَالَ مِنْ تَحْتِي
"It means, O Allah, take care of me from the front, back, right, left, from above, and I take refuge in Your majesty so that I am not struck from the bottom of me (H.R Abu Dawud of Ibn Umar, presented by Shaykh al-Albany)."
"The verse of the Qur’an above explains that the devil always blocks us from the straight path. He'll come at us from the front, back, right and left. What do the four directions mean?"
"Ibn Kathir in his commentary explains, Then I (devil) came to them from the front. That is, Satan will make humans doubt the problems of the afterlife (Min Baini Aidihim). From behind them, he meant to make them love the world (Wa Min Kholfihim). From the right, the meaning of religious affairs will be made syubhat (Wa ‘An Aipanihim). And from the left, he means and humans will be made interested and happy about the obedience (Wa ‘An Syama’ilihim)."
"Four directions will be explained one by one to make it clearer and more useful for all of us who are listening to it tonight. The more we understand Satan's deceit, God willing we will be further from his snares."
"First. From the front, the point is to make him doubtful and forget the affairs of the afterlife. Not thinking, terbersitpun no, made doubt/desperate against the grave. Today we often hear about hell."
"They say that going to hell will be even more fun because it will be collected with beautiful and handsome movie stars. What a terrible joke that can make someone out of Islam. This shows the devil's success."
"Humans are made not to know the pain of hell, so as to make fun of hell which is very painful torment. They do not know that a hellfire that is only as big as a match if dropped on the world's oceans will inevitably dry up instantly the world's seas, evaporating unnoticed."
After listening to the words, my body suddenly shook. Maybe because I've felt it like it was burning.
"To fortify ourselves from this demonic threat, we must always remember death. Then also learn the science of the grave, torture and pleasure. Also learn the pain of hell."
"Learn also how delicious heaven is, so that the more clearly the pleasure and misery that will be obtained later. Everything we do will be answered in the Hereafter. Every good even if only as big as mustard seeds will be reciprocated with pleasure. Instead, the weight of mustard seeds from an ugliness will be avenged in the afterlife. This is the essence of faith in the last day."
"second. From behind is making them love the world. It means the world is made very beautiful, beautiful and colorful. So that people become happy, compulsive, and even love the world beyond the afterlife. This is as mentioned in the hadith of Rasululloh SAW,"
إنَّ الدُّنْيَا حُلْوَةٌ خَضِرةٌ ، وإنَّ اللهَ مُسْتَخْلِفُكُمْ فِيهَا فَيَنْظُرَ كَيفَ تَعْمَلُونَ ، فَاتَّقُوا الدُّنْيَا وَاتَّقُوا النِّسَاءَ ؛ فإنَّ أَوَّلَ فِتْنَةُ بَنِي إسرائيلَ كَانَتْ في النِّسَاءِ
“Truly the world is sweet again green. Verily Allah will hand it over to you and see what you will do. So beware of the world, and beware of women! For the slander which first befell the Children of Israel came from the women, (Muslim no. 2742)."
"If a person is given an announcement, whoever prays a full month is given an all new alphard car by changing the attendance signed by takmir. Must have flocked shubuhan people in the mosque. Though every 2 rakaat before dawn, Allah promised more than the world of his side."
"Today people love to go to concerts. The number can be tens of thousands of people compared to those who attend studies to find useful knowledge. Here are some examples of the success of the devil who has developed various methods of misleading humans for hundreds of years."
"The therapy of passion for the world is to remember that we live the world like a traveler who takes shelter under a tree. After a while, the traveler will continue his journey. This is the description of Rasululloh SAW about the world. Belau said in his hadith,
مَا أَنَا وَالدُّنْيَا إِنَّمَا أَنَا وَالدُّنْيَا كَرَاكِبٍ اسْتَظَلَّ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ ثُمَّ رَاحَ وَتَرَكَهَا
“What do I do with this world? verily, I and the world are like a man walking and then taking shelter under a tree, and I leave (the tree).” (HR. language: 4099)."
"Three. From the right, the point is that religious matters are made unclear. Man is made heavy in the exercise of various virtues."
"When a man is about to rejoice and is awake at night, Satan whispers a voice in his heart, continue your sleep, the night is still long. And when he is nearing dawn, the devil whispers, continue to sleep, only later if it is already iqomah. And when he realized that the iqamah had been voiced by the muezzin, then the devil whispered, later, the prayer time is still long. Finally he escaped doing the tahajud prayer and also the bersama dawn prayer’."
"Satan keeps whispering whispers that make people heavy to worship.Many people underestimate prayer and even leave it because they believe that Allah is all-forgiving."
"Satan seeks to thwart or reduce one's level of obedience. So we must hurry in doing good so as not to change our minds because of the whisperings of Satan. Immediately doing good is also a command of Alloh Ta’ala as mentioned in the Qur’an,
وَسَارِعُوا إِلَى مَغْفِرَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ وَجَنَّةٍ عَرْضُهَا السَّمَوَاتُ وَالْأَرْضُ أُعِدَّتْ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ * الَّذِينَ يُنْفِقُونَ فِي السَّرَّاءِ وَالضَّرَّاءِ وَالْكَاظِمِينَ الْغَيْظَ وَالْعَافِينَ عَنِ النَّاسِ وَاللَّهُ يُحِبُّ الْمُحْسِنِينَ
“And hasten ye to forgiveness from your Lord and to a heaven as wide as the heavens and the earth prepared for those who fear (i.e.,) those who forgive (his), both in the field and narrow, and the people who hold their anger and mema’ (error) people. They like people who do good. (QS. Ali Imran 133-134)."
"To four. From the left, that is, the clairvoyance is packaged and polished in such a way that it looks beautiful and attractive."
"Zina was made beautiful and exciting in front of humans. So that films and television shows are filled with scenes that invite people to adultery. As if bergonta-turned cheating partner feels good and becomes a trend carried out by people. Some were even proud of his achievement of screwing many women."
"Riba was also made beautiful by the devil. Usury-related demonic products are truly exquisite and most successful. It can be seen how financial institutions such as banks, leasing and credit are very rife. Now, people are proud when working in a bank, even though he is a Muslim who always prays 5 times. Nowadays almost no one is free from buying credit with a contract containing riba. Worse yet, the Hajj pilgrimage also became a commodity prone to riba in the wrapping of hajj bailouts."
"That is how the devil and his army deceive men. We as Muslims will not survive the snares of the devil except by the grace of God. Therefore, always ask Allah for guidance and safety and try to know the snares of the devil. Because it will not survive someone from the snares of Satan except with the knowledge and help of God."
"Then, is there no way for humans to be spared from the attacks of all directions from demons?" I started to get frustrated.
"***Stated, when Satan said these words, the angels took pity on man, and they said, O God, how can man be spared from Satan's trap? then God answered, there are still two directions, namely up and down, “If man raises his hands in prayer humbly or prostrates with his forehead on the ground with great exaltation, I will forgive their sins.” (Sr Thabrani).
