Prayer Command
Bismillaahirrahmaa nirrahim...
Allahumma shalli 'ala Sayyidinaa Muhammad wa'alaa Ali Sayyidinaa Muhammad ...
A husband comes home to his wife after the evening prayer '... and he finds his children asleep.
He asked his wife: "O my wife, have the children prayed?"
His wife replied:
"At home, there is no food and earlier I kept them busy, until they fell asleep and haven't prayed yet"
The husband said: "Then, now wake them up...!"
His wife said: "O my husband, if you wake them up, what will happen is they will cry, because they are hungry and we don't have any food."
The husband said: "Listen...! I have to order them to pray and their sustenance is not with me. Wake them up, because their sustenance is with Allah Subhanahuwata'ala.
Allah Subhaanahu wata'ala says:
"وَأۡمُرۡ أَهۡلَكَ بِٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَٱصۡطَبِرۡ عَلَيۡهَاۖ لَا نَسۡـَٔلُكَ رِزۡقٗاۖ نَّحۡنُ نَر ۡزُقُكَۗ وَٱلۡعَٰقِبَةُ لِلتَّقۡوَىٰ"
"And order your family to pray and be patient in doing it. We do not ask you for sustenance,..... We are the ones who bear and give you sustenance.
And the result (good in the hereafter) is for those who are pious."
(QS. Thaha (20)
verse 132)
His wife finally wakes them up.
And when they had finished praying, suddenly someone knocked on their door, and it turned out that the one who knocked on the door was one of the rich men carrying a set of the most delicious food dishes.
The rich man said, "Please! This dish is for your family!"
The husband said: "How come?"
The rich man then said: the story is like this, one of the nobles of this country came to me, and I served this food. Before he ate, instead there was an argument between us, while being emotional he swore, that he would not eat anything, so he finally went out."
"So I brought back this dish of food, and said to myself 'I will give this to the one whose feet will stop standing.
"By Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, it turns out that I was just standing at your doorstep."
And by Allah Subhanahuwata'ala, I don't know what caused me to come to you." Said the rich man again.
"رَبِّ ٱجۡعَلۡنِي مُقِيمَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِيۚ رَبَّنَا وَتَقَبَّلۡ دُعَآءِ"
"O my Lord, make me and my children and grandchildren people who remain steadfast in praying, O our Lord, and accept my prayer."
( QS. Ibrahim : (14) Verse to : 40 )
Perintah Shalat
Bismillaahirrahmaa nirrahiim ...
Allahumma shalli 'ala Sayyidinaa Muhammad wa'alaa Ali Sayyidinaa Muhammad ...
Seorang suami pulang ke istrinya setelah shalat isya'... dan ia menemukan anak-anaknya pada tertidur.
Dia bertanya kepada istrinya :" wahai istriku,apakah anak- anak sudah mengerjakan shalat ?"
Istrinya menjawab :
"Di rumah, tidak ada makanan dan tadi aku menyibukkan mereka, sampai mereka tertidur dan belum melaksanakan shalat "
Sang suami berkata : "Kalau begitu, sekarang bangunkan mereka...!"
Istrinya berkata : "Wahai suamiku, jika engkau membangunkan mereka, maka yang akan terjadi adalah mereka akan menangis, karena kelaparan dan kita tidak ada makanan sedikitpun."
Sang suami berkata : "Dengarkanlah...! aku harus memerintahkan mereka melaksanakan shalat dan rezeki mereka tidak ada padaku. Bangunkan mereka, karena rezeki mereka ada pada Allah Subhanahuwata'ala.
Allah Subhaanahu wata'ala berfirman :
"وَأۡمُرۡ أَهۡلَكَ بِٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَٱصۡطَبِرۡ عَلَيۡهَاۖ لَا نَسۡـَٔلُكَ رِزۡقٗاۖ نَّحۡنُ نَرۡزُقُكَۗ وَٱلۡعَٰقِبَةُ لِلتَّقۡوَىٰ"
"Dan perintahkanlah keluargamu untuk melaksanakan shalat dan sabarlah dalam mengerjakannya. Kami tidak meminta rezeki kepadamu,..... Kamilah yang menanggung dan memberi rezeki kepadamu.
Dan akibat (yang baik di akhirat) adalah teruntuk bagi orang yang bertakwa."
(QS. Thaha (20)
Ayat ke 132)
Istrinya akhirnya membangunkan mereka.
Dan ketika mereka telah selesai melaksanakan shalat, tiba-tiba pintu rumah mereka diketuk orang, dan ternyata yang mengetuk pintu adalah salah satu orang kaya sambil membawa seperangkat hidangan makanan yang paling lezat .
Orang kaya tadi berkata, " Silahkan ! hidangan ini untuk keluargamu !"
Sang suami berkata : "Bagaimana bisa?"
Orang kaya itu lantas berkata : ceritanya begini, salah satu bangsawan negara ini datang kepadaku, dan aku menjamu dengan makanan ini. Sebelum dia makan, malah terjadi pertengkaran diantara kami,sambil emosi ia bersumpah, bahwa dia tidak akan makan apapun, sehingga akhirnya dia pergi keluar."
"Maka aku membawa kembali hidangan makanan ini, dan berkata dalam hati 'Aku akan memberikan ini kepada orang yang dimana, kakiku akan berhenti berdiri.
"Demi Allah Subhanahuwata'ala, ternyata aku hanya berdiri didepan pintu rumahmu".
Dan demi Allah Subhanahuwata'ala, aku tidak tahu apa sebab yang membawa aku kepadamu." Ujar orang kaya itu lagi.
"رَبِّ ٱجۡعَلۡنِي مُقِيمَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِيۚ رَبَّنَا وَتَقَبَّلۡ دُعَآءِ"
"Ya Tuhanku, jadikanlah aku dan anak cucuku orang yang tetap teguh melaksanakan shalat, ya Tuhan kami, dan terimalah doaku."
( QS. Ibrahim : (14) Ayat ke :40 )
