Come and ponder together

TAKING OFF THE HIJAB
by Shazia Ahmad




Question:

I understand that hijab is required, and I’ve been wearing it for some time now but I feel like putting it on might have been a mistake.  I don’t feel like it’s made me become a better Muslim, and I feel almost like I’m deceiving people because they look at me as an example even though I’m still struggling with a lot of things. Also, if I take it off, is it really something Allah will punish me for? It seems like such a petty thing. Isn’t the most important thing having a clean heart?



Answer:
Assalaamu `alaykum dear questioner,

Thank you for asking this question which opens up a number of important issues, and for entrusting us enough to share with us some of what you’re struggling with. I ask Allah (subhanahu wa ta`ala – exalted is He) that He makes the words that I write beneficial to you and others who are reading, and that He leads you to the best decisions.

I’d like to start by addressing what I believe is the least important factor in this equation, and that is ‘what other people might think.’ It should never be the case that we alter our practice of Islam or our worship for the sake of other people, or what they might think or assume. People may be quick to judge or jump to conclusions, but whatever thoughts or opinions they have are strictly their responsibility, and not something we should be overly concerned with.

You said that you’re worried that wearing hijab may be deceiving, because people see you as better than you really are. But in truth all of us are sinners, and it is only from Allah’s mercy upon us that He is as-Siteer - the One who veils our faults and our flaws, and makes us seem better than we really are in others’ eyes. One famous scholar said, “If sins had a smell no one would come near me because of the stench!” Every single one of us has deficiencies and weaknesses, has made mistakes, has taken missteps or is presently taking them. We only do the best that we can, and any good deed that Allah grants us the opportunity to perform should be considered a blessing that we take advantage of. Instead of worrying about not being good enough, we can instead consider this as an opportunity to be thankful to Allah for concealing our negatives, and pray, “O Allah, forgive me for what they do not know about me, and make me even better than what they think.”


You will be hard-pressed to find anyone on this earth who can be considered ‘worthy’ of being a representative of Islam, because everyone has one dimension or another in their faith or practice in which they are lacking. However that doesn’t mean we should stop encouraging each other by whatever means are available to us.  There is a very beautiful hadith related to this issue:

Anas relates that, “We asked the Prophet ﷺ, ‘O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, shouldn’t we refrain from calling others to goodness if we don’t practice all good things ourselves, and shouldn’t we refrain from forbidding wrong things until we ourselves have abstained from all the bad?’ ‘No,’ he replied, ‘You should call others to goodness even if you don’t do all good, and you should forbid bad things even if you don’t abstain from all of them yourselves.’” (Al-Tabarani)
Remember that by wearing hijab you are not saying to others ‘I am Islam’, but simply that ‘I am a Muslim’, meaning – I am someone who is trying to follow this religion, who accepts it as truth, sees beauty in it and hopes to beautify myself with it.  I remember a quote attributed to Yusuf Islam: “Islam is not a state of being but it is a process of becoming,” – becoming more, become better, striving to reach that state of perfect submission and connection with Allah Most High, and May He help all of us achieve that, ameen.

You also said that you feel hijab has not really made you a better Muslim. A lot of times when a person first starts performing a good deed they feel an iman ‘rush’, a feeling of happiness at doing something good for the sake of Allah and energy to do more, improve themselves, etc. However, after some time, when that action starts to become just another part of a daily routine, it loses that power, and that increase in iman and excitement dissipates.

What a person needs, instead of focusing on those ‘rushes’, is a steady and constant diet of good deeds and spiritual nourishment. We cannot rely on one particular deed to ‘make’ us better Muslims. Instead, we have to take the reigns and make sure we are doing things regularly that increase us in iman, like recitation of the Qur’an, performing salah with consciousness and focus, dhikr, and so on. Wearing hijab can definitely be one of those things, but it is only one part of a whole that needs to be constructed. Just like exercise is important for good health, yet it has to be combined with eating right and many other things in order for the person to see the desired results in the end.

Also know that there is a direct relationship between a person’s actions and their inner state. We know that when someone is in a high state of iman it’s natural for him or her to start performing more good deeds. However, we may overlook the fact that the opposite is true as well – that just performing good deeds, even if one may not be ‘feeling it’, can affect us and change us. The limbs are inroads, and performing good deeds with them can soften a hardened heart, bring enlightenment to a closed mind, and give a person a feeling of rejuvenation and desire to come closer to Allah and do more positive things. I heard a scholar say that if one is feeling troubled, confused or in a low state of iman, “go quickly to action”; because good deeds can bring about that inner reawakening one may need. If we don’t see a change happening in us when we do a good deed, that doesn’t mean we should stop it but that perhaps we need to supplement it with others in order to gather the momentum needed to see results.


Thirdly, you are absolutely correct when you say that the most important thing is for us to have purified hearts. Allah (swt) emphasizes this in the Qur’an when He states that on the Day of Judgment nothing will be of benefit to the servant except “one who brings to Allah a clean, sound heart” (26:89). The question is, how does one achieve that? What purifies us and cleanses our hearts?''

In our times we find that some people feel that we’ve reached a more ‘enlightened era’ in which spirituality can be derived solely from philosophy and ideas, and need not be bound by rituals and details of religion. However those who propound this notion forget that Allah did not create us as minds and souls alone – but coupled them with our physical bodies. We cannot deny the fact that we are body and soul, content and form, together, and each has its own needs and specifications for refinement. This is a sunnah of Allah in the way that we were created, and why prayer, fasting, and all our spiritual endeavors have very specific physical components. These forms house within them dimensions of meaning, but it is only from enacting them precisely that a profound spirituality can be achieved.

Purifying our hearts is the goal, but the means to reaching that goal is through the very real and specific physical prescriptions and commandments that Allah (swt) has given us. It is through His obedience and through following the teachings of our deen that we clean and polish our hearts. It is for this reason that I have to say that hijab is not something trivial. Anything that leads us to spiritual awareness, elevation, and purification – that helps us come closer to Allah – cannot be considered trivial or petty. Perhaps it is more likely that there are hidden depths within it that we do not perceive, or that we are not putting it in the proper context of its deeper purpose and meaning.

About punishment from Allah: a better way of looking at this issue is not considering the smallness or pettiness of the sin, but the greatness of the One whom we are sinning against. From His infinite wisdom, all-encompassing knowledge and vast mercy, in accordance to His Law – which is at its core about attaining benefit and warding off harm – He has instructed us to perform this action. In the Qur’an Allah says, ‘It may be that you dislike something and in it is goodness for you’ (2:216); ‘It may be that you dislike a thing but Allah brings about from it a great deal of good.’ (4:19) If someone chooses to step away from a prescribed action knowingly, we cannot deny that this is a sin, and that Allah holds us to account for our sins. However we always have hope in and pray for Allah’s mercy and kindness, as we know He can forgive all sins if He chooses.

In closing, I want to leave you with a beautiful quote from a Hadith Qudsi. Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala said:

“My servant draws not near to Me with anything more beloved by Me than the religious duties I have enjoined upon him.” (Bukhari)

Know, dear questioner, that if you feel far from Allah, the solution is not to stop what you are doing and find a different way, but to persevere and continue on the path you are on, even though it is hard. This will make you beloved to Allah, and one who feels the happiness of being close to Him and being shaded by His Loving Mercy and care.

May Allah enliven and enlighten our hearts and grant us closeness to Him. May He make us people who love to worship Him, and through our worship become close to Him and gain His love. May He make our hearts firm and steadfast on our deen, and grant us strength and bravery in our spiritual struggles. May He guide us to the best decisions and make easy for us the path of khayr [goodness]. Ameen ya Rabb.

WAllahu a`lam – and He alone knows best.

Wasalaamu alaykum.

They leave but do they come back?

[copied from Yasmin Mogahed's]



Leaving is hard. Losing is harder. So a few weeks ago I asked the question, ‘why do people have to leave each other?’ The answer took me into some of my life’s deepest realizations and struggles. But it has also led me to wonder: After people leave, do they ever return? After something we love is taken from us, does it ever come back? Is loss permanent—or just a means for a higher purpose? Is loss the End itself, or a temporary cure for our heart’s ailments?

There’s something amazing about this life. The very same worldly attribute that causes us pain is also what gives us relief: Nothing here lasts. What does that mean? It means that the breathtakingly beautiful rose in my vase will wither tomorrow. It means that my youth will neglect me. But it also means that the sadness I feel today will change tomorrow. My pain will die. My laughter won’t last forever—but neither will my tears. We say this life isn’t perfect. And it isn’t. It isn’t perfectly good. But, it also isn’t perfectly bad, either.

Allah (glorified is He) tells us in a very profound ayah (verse): “Verily with hardship comes ease.” (Qur’an, 94:5). Growing up I think I understood this ayah wrongly. I used to think it meant: after hardship comes ease. In other words, I thought life was made up of good times and bad times. After the bad times, come the good times. I thought this as if life was either all good or all bad. But that is not what the ayah is saying. The ayah is saying WITH hardship comes ease. The ease is at the same time as the hardship. This means that nothing in this life is ever all bad (or all good). In every bad situation we’re in, there is always something to be grateful for. With hardship, Allah also gives us the strength and patience to bear it.

If we study the difficult times in our lives, we will see that they were also filled with much good. The question is – which do we chose to focus on? I think the trap we fall into is rooted in this false belief that this life can be perfect—perfectly good or perfectly bad. But that’s not the nature of dunya (this life). That’s the nature of the hereafter. The hereafter is saved for the perfection of things. Jannah (paradise) is perfectly and completely good. There is no bad in it. And Jahannam (hell – may Allah protect us) is perfectly and completely bad. There is no good in it.

By not truly understanding this reality, I myself would become consumed by the momentary circumstances of my life (whether good or bad). I experienced each situation in its’ full intensity—as if it was ultimate or would never end. The way I was feeling at the moment transformed the whole world and everything in it. If I was happy in that moment, past and present, near and far, the entire universe was good for that moment. As if perfection could exist here. And the same happened with bad things. A negative state consumed everything. It became the whole world, past and present, the entire universe was bad for that moment. Because it became my entire universe, I could see nothing outside of it. Nothing else existed for that moment. If you wronged me today, it was because you no longer cared about me—not because this was one moment of a string of infinite moments which happened to be tinted that way, or because you and I and this life just aren’t perfect. What I was experiencing or feelings at that instant replaced context, because it replaced my entire vision of the world.

I think in our experiential nature, some of us may be especially susceptible to this. Perhaps that is the reason we can fall prey to the “I’ve never seen good from you” phenomenon which the Prophet ﷺ (peace be upon him) referred to in his hadith. Perhaps some of us say or feel this way because at that moment, experientially we really haven’t seen good, because our feeling at that instant replaces, defines and becomes everything. Past and present becomes rolled up into one experiential moment.

But, the true realization that nothing is complete in this life transforms our experience of it. We suddenly stop being consumed by moments. In the understanding that nothing is limitless here, that nothing here is kamil (perfect, complete), Allah enables us to step outside of moments and see them for what they are: not universes, not Reality, past and present, just that—a single moment in a string of infinite moments…and that they too shall pass.

When I cry or lose or bruise, so long as I am still alive, nothing is ultimate. So long as there is still a tomorrow, a next moment, there is hope, there is change, there is redemption. What is lost, is not lost forever.

So in answering the question of whether what is lost comes back, I study the most beautiful examples.  Did Yusuf return to his father? Did Musa return to his mother? Did Hajar return to Ibrahim? Did health, wealth and children return to Ayoub? From these stories we learn a powerful and beautiful lesson: what is taken by Allah is never lost. In fact, it is only what is with Allah that remains. Everything else vanishes. Allah (swt) says, “What is with you must vanish: what is with Allah will endure. And We will certainly bestow, on those who patiently persevere, their reward according to the best of their actions.” (Quran 16:96)

So, all that is with Allah, is never lost. In fact the Prophet ﷺ has said: “You will never give up a thing for the sake of Allah (swt), but that Allah will replace it for you with something that is better for you than it.” (Ahmad) Did not Allah take the husband of Umm Salimah, only to replace him with the Prophet ﷺ?

Sometimes Allah takes in order to give. But, it’s crucial to understand that His giving is not always in the form we think we want. He knows best what is best. Allah says: “… But it is possible that you dislike a thing which is good for you, and that you love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knows, and you know not.” (Quran 2:216)

But if something is going to be returned in one form or another, why is it taken at all? Subhan’Allah. It is in the process of ‘losing’ that we are given.

Allah gives us gifts. But then we often become dependent on those gifts, instead of Him. When He gives us money, we depend on the money—not Him. When He gives us people, we depend on people—not Him. When He gives us status or power, we depend on, and become distracted by these things. When Allah gives us health, we become deceived. We think we will never die.

Allah gives us gifts, but then we come to love them as we should only love Him. We take those gifts and inject them into our hearts, until they take over. Soon we cannot live without them. Every waking moment is spent in contemplation of them, in submission and worship to them. The mind and the heart that was created by Allah, for Allah, becomes the property of someone or something else. And then the fear comes. The fear of loss begins to cripple us. The gift—that should have remained in our hands—takes over our heart, so the fear of losing it consumes us. Soon, what was once a gift becomes a weapon of torture and a prison of our own making. How can we be freed of this? At times, in His infinite mercy, Allah frees us…by taking it away.

As a result of it being taken, we turn to Allah wholeheartedly. In that desperation and need, we ask, we beg, we pray. Through the loss, we reach a level of sincerity and humility and dependence on Him which we would otherwise not reach—had it not been taken from us. Through the loss, our hearts turn entirely to face Him.

What happens when you first give a child a toy or the new video game he’s always wanted? He becomes consumed by it. Soon he wants to do nothing else. He sees nothing else. He doesn’t want to do his work or even eat. He’s hypnotized to his own detriment. So what do you do, as a loving parent? Do you leave him to drown in his addiction and complete loss of focus and balance? No.

You take it away.

Then, once the child has regained focus of his priorities, regained sanity and balance, once things are put in their proper place in his heart and mind and life, what happens? You give the gift back. Or perhaps something better. But this time, the gift is no longer in his heart. It is in its proper place. It is in his hand.

Yet in that process of taking, the most important thing happened. The losing and regaining of the gift is inconsequential. The taking of your heedlessness, your dependence and focus on other than Him, and the replacing it with remembrance, dependence and focus only on Him was the real gift. Allah withholds to give.

And so sometimes, the ‘something better’ is the greatest gift: nearnesss to Him. Allah took the daughter of Malik Ibn Dinar in order to save him. He took his daughter, but replaced her with protection from the hell-fire and salvation from a painful life of sin and distance from Him. Through the loss of his daughter, Malik ibn Dinar was blessed with a life spent in nearness to Allah. And even that which was taken (his daughter) would remain with Malik ibn Dinar forever in Jannah.

Ibn ul Qayyim (may Allah be pleased with him) speaks about this phenomenon in his book, Madarij Al Salikin. He says: “The divine decree related to the believer is always a bounty, even if it is in the form of withholding (something that is desired); and it is a blessing, even if it appears to be a trial and an affliction that has befallen him; it is in reality a cure, even though it appears to be a disease!”

So to the question, ‘once something is lost, does it return?’ the answer is yes. It returns. Sometimes here, sometime there, sometimes in a different, better form. But the greatest gift lies beneath the taking and the returning. Allah tells us: “Say, ‘In the bounty of Allah and in His mercy – in that let them rejoice; it is better than what they hoard.’” (Quran, 10:58)

Just a 2 cents from me~

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim,


DISCLAIMER: This entry is about covering the aurah but directs specifically to the shawl-wearers as that is the most famous hijab style currently.




"And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts and not expose their adornment except that which [necessarily] appears thereof and to wrap [a portion of] their headcovers over their chests and not expose their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers, their brothers' sons, their sisters' sons, their women, that which their right hands possess, or those male attendants having no physical desire, or children who are not yet aware of the private aspects of women. And let them not stamp their feet to make known what they conceal of their adornment. And turn to Allah in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed."  [Surah An-Nur verse 31]


Nowadays we can see more and more girls/ladies covering their hair and that is a GOOD thing.


What seems to be the problem is HOW they are covering up their hair. Women and fashion are two items that cannot be separated. And what is obvious in my current observation is that; fashion has once again succeeded in dominating the female minds by coming up with some ridiculous fashionable shawls.

I am no religious scholar to point out "oh sister, that is haram, you are not wearing it the right way etc". I repeat that by being an item, one can still acknowledge the correct wear and abide the the laws of Allah. There's always the longer option, the ones that suit the requirement of covering over the chest [and preferably lower than that if you can]; the Pashimina or you can just buy the material and DIY your own hijab/shawl so that you can make it very nice in length.


Then comes the clothing part. If you have decided to wear the headscarft/shawl/hijab/pashmina/tudung,etc, remind back yourself, for WHAT PURPOSE? Don't drown yourself in being a victim of fashion crime.

The fashion crime I'm talking about here is combining two opposite features. You wear the hijab but at the same time you also wear tight clothing or transparent clothing. And then comes the excessive accessories fashion to put over the shawl/hijab which I just don't understand.

In covering our aurah lies MODESTY and we should all reflect back are we COVERING OURSELVES MODESTLY?




Can read about it HERE [ni versi indonesia...boleh google lagi kalau rajin]



I don't intend to babble much about this as I know there have been plenty posts over the net. I find some intriguing and some others have the content but too harsh in giving views  [IDK,maybe that's their style of writing so it's up to individuals]


What I want to remind...to me and to all my sisters in Islam  [bukan SIS ye] is that; when Allah made that rule for us, it is never to burden us. Everything from Him is for our sake so we must open our minds a little to really acknowledge that and to really2 understand before fulfilling it. Don't do it for the worldly matters but do it for the hereafter's sake.

kaf-ba-rho-ka-ta-nun

Being an adult is a very challenging responsibility. The tasks shouldered by our parents are now passed down to us [in the sense of experience]. This goes more specific when you are already in the working field.


You go to school, go to college,get a degree [anything equivalent] and you start hunting for jobs. Then, there's the reality of earning your salary and how to spend and save it wisely.

I grew up seeing people around me with different modes of managing their salary. Some just spend it like in a jiff and in the middle of the month, they are already broke. Some are wiser and know how much to spend and how much to save  [ya know for the future]. I see best in people who give some to others what they earn because they know, what they have been given, they should share some with others. And in this matter, giving some to their parents. It's not the amount that counts, it's the THOUGHT. I remember a phrase by Muhammad Adif's mom in "Dunia Baru"  [yes I know,lame...bahaha] where she keeps saying "kaf-ba-rho-ka-ta-nun", translated as "keberkatan" in Malay or "blessings" in English.

I strongly hold to that.


I have a very good close reference on this matter. My late pakngah [al-fatihah], he didn't earn that much but he managed the whole month for his family with his little pay and still managed to have some money left by the end of the month. His secret was: he never failed to give money to my grandparents every month. Not that they demanded it but he knew his duty and for that, his salary was blessed by Allah...


On the contrary, I also knew a particular person who earns like,A LOT but never gave a little of his LOT to his parents while they were still alive and his money was never enough.Always had to borrow here and there.


So,what's left to me was I just had to chose which one that is better.


I am still new to this working and earning salary thingy but I've always remembered those two of a few examples and without my parents demand, I managed to give some to my parents. Not that much but it gives me pleasure by doing so.


And if one day, if I am suddenly ALONE No More [ya know what I mean...bahaha], I will still keep on doing the same thing  [ working is a must for me, I can't do nothing,I'll die! ] <---blame Shakespeare for my hyperbole-ness


Oh no! I'm ranting aren't I? better stop now.


So ladies and gentlemen of the jury. In whatever you do, whatever you earn,remember,you still need "kaf-ba-rho-ka-ta-nun", OK? clear?


Allah's blessings are from our parents blessings. Bi'iznillah =)


If you wanna share some with me also can mah,LOL  *kecil tapan tangan,nyiru saya tadahkan* <--kecil ke?

[ok,kidding ja....hoho]

FB turns to an open love story parade

A friend posted this:






The red arrow I must say, has been one of the major eye sores whilst opening fb. I keep my fb alive to keep me updated with what my friends are doing and having to see all the lovey dovey messages is just so irritating. To the extend that I had to "hide" some people for the benefit of mankind [acehhhh!].

There's a reason why "wall" was invented.

Well, I'm speaking for myself as one of fb's active user. And this status should be a reminder for me at the first level, in case lah tersasar ke apa kan?! Lucky me that I have all the makciks and my ex teachers and lecturers in fb, that way; I'll think thrice before I start writing some rubbish for a status :D  [tho sometimes they are of no functional purposes at all ]

L.O.V.E

Zabooodeee here!


I just found something interesting through my owner's tuh-em-blur


Sharing it here:




pakcik gugle,zaboodee pinjam gambar eh? ;)

If you find yourself in love with someone, and that someone does not love you…be gentle to yourself, there is nothing wrong with you, love just did not choose to rest in that someone`s heart.

If you find someone in love with you, and you cannot answer that love…feel honoured that love came by and called on your door…but gently refuse the feeling you cannot return, as love did not choose to settle in your heart.

If you find yourself in love with someone and the love was returned…it still can happen that love chooses to leave…do not try to reclaim it and do not assess any blame…let it go, despite the pain…there is a reason and meaning to this….you cannot choose love by yourself….

add:  Because LOVE itself, is from Him and to Him. He can give and He can take away. Allahu musta’an, He knows best~~


Narrated Abu Dharr:

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: The best of the actions is to love for the sake of Allah and to hate for the sake of Allah.

{Book 40, Number 4582 : Sunan Abu-Dawud}


Falling in love comes with a BIG responsibility especially to your heart. Never let the love towards a person be more important than loving Allah, our Creator~

Updates

It has been raining for 3 days already here in Malaysia. In some states there has also been a big flood where the people had to be removed from their respected houses. May Allah help ease their difficulties a bit and may they be patient. Don't play with the water coz you might catch any unwanted diseases  [ ok I don't know whom I'm addressing this to, just a random reminder spoken by the tee-vee]


So, the election in TENANG already saw a winner. Shortly after that, petrol price increased yet another 10cents. That's too little, why not go up to RM1 already? aish2, pity those who suffer due to this increment. I know because I listen. You [yg menaikkan harga] should do a heart-2-heart conversation with the common people who have cars and use it daily. Not every state has LRT's,KTM's and public buses [that is actually visible on the road] so consider that too. Oh wrong emotions injected, I was supposed to 'support' the increment,haha and it has never been something new actually. Patience my fellow friends.


Ok, today's a holiday for KL-ans,wehoo! Can't wait for this coming Thursday and Friday but regardless, I've been out of tasks from Friday due to the conditions in Egypt. Still haven't received any news from my superiors. The Malaysian students have been transferred out from Egypt so alhamdulillah on that part. Hope everyone are safe and sound inshaAllah.



what to say when it rains?



It's 1 February already!

Life as it is

copied from somewhere in tumblr


Assalamualaikum and hii!

me again!


If you happen to see so many posts here after this and sometimes does not make any sense, JUST SKIP and hurrily click the "X" button =)

Anyways, I wanted to share a short note. I just got to know a virtual friend of mine is going to undergo a surgery. I thought it was just a minor surgery for something minor but what happened to be the case is that, she has Ovarian Cancer. Frankly speaking, I'm not much of a sweet talker nor a good consoler [Alexithymia] but people can come and share anything with me. I may handle situations differently but alhamdulillah my friends seem to acknowledge that =). So I just wished her the very best, that I'll pray for her [and inshaAllah I will], and I shared with her one of late Mas Afzal's sayings  [refer on the rigt side of this blog]


My point is, everything that we have now is not even ours. Everything is lent. So let us be grateful with everything that we have and don't. One day we're all happy and healthy but can we guarantee the same situation the next day? Wallahu a'lam T_T


till my next entry =)
