Batas-Batas Dalam Berhias
Hadith:
Rasulullah s.a.w bersabda, maksudnya:”Allah mengutuk wanita yang bertatu atau minta ditatu, wanita yang mencukur alis dan mereka yang meminta dicukur alis mereka, wanita yang membentuk giginya agar kelihatan cantik dan mereka yang mengubah ciptaan Allah.”
Riwayat Ibnu Mas’ud
Huraian :
i) Maksud mengubah ciptaan Allah s.w.t. ialah membuat perubahan pada ciptaan Allah S.W.T yang telah sempurna secara pandangan umum dan adat atas dasar tidak berpuas hati dengan anugerah itu, bukan kerana memperbaiki atau memulihkan kecacatan.
ii) Mencabut bulu kening yang merupakan anugerah dan ciptaan Allah S.W.T. yang sempurna dan membuat atau melukis bulu kening yang baharu selepas itu agar menepati cita rasa sendiri supaya kelihatan lebih cantik, menawan dan bergaya adalah perbuatan yang haram di sisi Islam.
iii) Jika perbuatan mencabut bulu kening itu disebabkan ia tumbuh berselerak dan tidak kemas yang amat teruk, maka hal ini tidaklah termasuk dalam erti kata mengubah ciptaan Allah S.W.T.
Lagipun jika yang dicabut itu hanyalah yang berselerak dan bukan termasuk bulu yang dipanggil kening serta tidak membuat lukisan semula terhadapnya. Ini dilakukan atas dasar menjaga kekemasan diri bukan kerana tidak puas hati dengan ciptaan Allah S.W.T kerana Allah S.W.T itu cantik dan sukakan kecantikan.
iv) Hanya rawatan ke atas penyakit yang tidak boleh sembuh dengan sendirinya sahaja yang diharuskan seperti memasang gigi palsu di tempat gigi yang rongak (bukan mematahkan gigi dan menggantikannya dengan yang lain), mengatur susunan gigi yang tidak tersusun (tapi bukan mengasah atau mengikir), memakai ubat supaya rambut tumbuh di tempat yang botak (bukan memakai rambut palsu), memakai ubat untuk membuang jeragat pada kulit (bukan membuat pembedahan plastik atau memakai bahan kimia untuk menukar warna kulit), memakai inai, syampu atau gel pada rambut atau janggut supaya lebih segar dan terurus (bukan mewarnakannya dengan cat atau spray) dan sebagainya sebagai perbezaan antara merawat/menjaga keaslian ciptaan Allah S.W.T dengan mengubah ciptaan-Nya di mana merawat/menjaga itu adalah Harus manakala mengubahnya adalah Haram.
v) Diri manusia dan segala makhluk di alam ini adalah hak mutlak Allah S.W.T, Oleh itu kita hendaklah mematuhi segala hukum dan kehendak agama dengan baik. Janganlah tertipu dan terpengaruh dengan tabiat orang yang suka menurut hawa nafsunya disebabkan sikap tidak bersyukur dan tidak berpuas hati dengan ciptaan dan anugerah Allah di mana sikap ini sebenarnya merupakan sikap yang diwarisi daripada syaitan.

Doakan Yang Baik-baik
Hadith :
Dikhabarkan dari Aisyah r.a mengatakan bahawa Rasulullah s.a.w apabila melihat hujan, baginda berkata:”Semoga hujan yang bermanfaat.”
(al-Bukhari)
Huraian:
Setiap perkataan yang keluar daripada mulut anak Adam adalah datang daripada niat dalam hatinya.
Orang yang suka mengeluarkan kata-kata yang baik mencerminkan keikhlasan hatinya dan kebaikan hati budinya.
Manakala orang yang suka bercakap perkara-perkara yang buruk kebiasaannya berperangai tidak elok.
Itulah persepsi biasa dalam masyarakat. Begitulah keadaannya bilamana kita inginkan sesuatu kebaikan janganlah kita berkata perkara-perkara yang berbentuk negatif kerana ia seumpama doa yang dipohon secara tidak langsung kerana sesungguhnya Allah S.W.T Maha Mendengar segala percakapan hamba-Nya.
Justeru apa yang baik itu datangnya daripada Allah dan segala yang buruk itu datangnya daripada kesilapan kita sendiri.

Anger How a Muslim Deal with it
Anger How a Muslim Deal with it
 The Anger is one of the evil whispers of Shaytaan, which leads to so many evils and tragedies, of which only Allaah knows their full extent. For this reason Islam has a great deal to say about this bad characteristic, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) described cures for this “disease” and ways to limit its effects, among which are the following:(1) Seeking refuge with Allaah from the Shaytaan: Sulayman ibn Sard said: “I was sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and two men were slandering one another. One of them was red in the face, and the veins on his neck were standing out. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, `I know a word which, if he were to say it, what he feels would go away. If he said “I seek refuge with Allaah from the Shaytaan,” what he feels (i.e., his anger) would go away.’” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, al-Fath, 6/337) The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “If a man gets angry and says, `I seek refuge with Allaah,’ his anger will go away.” (Saheeh al-Jaami’ al-Sagheer, no. 695) (2) Keeping silent: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “If any of you becomes angry, let him keep silent.” (Reported by Imaam Ahmad, al-Musnad, 1/329; see also Saheeh al-Jaami’, 693, 4027). This is because in most cases, the angry person loses self control and could utter words of kufr (from which we seek refuge with Allaah), or curses, or the word of divorce (talaaq) which would destroy his home, or words of slander which would bring him the enmity and hatred of others. So, in short, keeping silent is the solution which helps one to avoid all that. (3) Not moving: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “If any of you becomes angry and he is standing, let him sit down, so his anger will go away; if it does not go away, let him lie down.” The narrator of this hadeeth is Abu Dharr (may Allaah be pleased with him), and there is a story connected to his telling of it: he was taking his camels to drink at a trough that he owned, when some other people came along and said (to one another), “Who can compete with Abu Dharr (in bringing animals to drink) and make his hair stand on end?” A man said, “I can,” so he brought his animals and competed with Abu Dharr, with the result that the trough was broken. [i.e., Abu Dharr was expecting help in watering his camels, but instead the man misbehaved and caused the trough to be broken]. Abu Dharr was standing, so he sat down, then he laid down. Someone asked him, “O Abu Dharr, why did you sit down then lie down?” He said: “The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: . . .” and quoted the hadeeth. (The hadeeth and this story may be found in Musnad Ahmad, 5/152; see also Saheeh al-Jaami’, no. 694). According to another report, Abu Dharr was watering his animals at the trough, when another man made him angry, so he sat down . . . (Fayd al-Qadeer, al-Manaawi, 1/408) Among the benefits of this advice given by the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is the fact that it prevents the angry person from going out of control, because he could strike out and injure someone, or even kill – as we will find out shortly – or he could destroy possessions and so on. Sitting down makes it less likely that he will become overexcited, and lying down makes it even less likely that he will do something crazy or harmful. Al-’Allaamah al-Khattaabi, may Allaah have mercy on him, said in his commentary on Abu Dawud: “One who is standing is in a position to strike and destroy, while the one who is sitting is less likely to do that, and the one who is lying down can do neither. It is possible that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told the angry person to sit down or lie down so that he would not do something that he would later regret. And Allaah knows best.” (Sunan Abi Dawud, with Ma’aalim al-Sunan, 5/141) (4) Following the advice of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): Abu Hurayrah, may Allaah be pleased with him, reported that a man said to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), “Advise me.” He said, “Do not become angry.” The man repeated his request several times, and each time the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told him, “Do not become angry.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, Fath al-Bari, 10/456) According to another report, the man said: “I thought about what the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, and I realized that anger combines all kinds of evil.” (Musnad Ahmad, 5/373) (5) Do not become angry and Paradise will be yours (a saheeh hadeeth, see Saheeh al-Jaami’, 7374. Ibn Hijr attributed it to al-Tabaraani, see al-Fath 4/465): Remembering what Allaah has promised to the righteous (muttaqeen) who keep away from the causes of anger and struggle within themselves to control it, is one of the most effective ways of extinguishing the flames of anger. One of the ahaadeeth that describe the great reward for doing this is: “Whoever controls his anger at the time when he has the means to act upon it, Allaah will fill his heart with contentment on the Day of Resurrection.” (Reported by al-Tabaraani, 12/453, see also Saheeh al-Jaami’, 6518). Another great reward is described in the Prophet’s words: “Whoever controls his anger at the time when he has the means to act upon it, Allaah will call him before all of mankind on the Day of Resurrection, and will let him choose of the Hur al-’Iyn whoever he wants.” (Reported by Abu Dawud, 4777, and others. It is classified as hasan in Saheeh al-Jaami, 6518). (6) Knowing the high status and advantages offered to those who control themselves: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The strong man is not the one who can overpower others (in wrestling); rather, the strong man is the one who controls himself when he gets angry.” (Reported by Ahmad, 2/236; the hadeeth is agreed upon). The greater the anger, the higher the status of the one who controls himself. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The strongest man is the one who, when he gets angry and his face reddens and his hackles rise, is able to defeat his anger.” (Reported by Imaam Ahmad, 5/367, and classified as hasan in Saheeh al- Jaami’, 3859) Anas reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) passed by some people who were wrestling. He asked, “What is this?” They said: “So-and-so is the strongest, he can beat anybody.” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “Shall I not tell you who is even stronger then him? The man who, when he is mistreated by another, controls his anger, has defeated his own shaytaan and the shaytaan of the one who made him angry.” (Reported by al-Bazzaar, and Ibn Hijr said its isnaad is saheeh. Al-Fath, 10/519) (7) Following the Prophet’s example in the case of anger: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is our leader and has set the highest example in this matter, as is recorded in a number of ahaadeeth. One of the most famous was reported by Anas, may Allaah be pleased with him, who said: “I was walking with the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and he was wearing a Najraani cloak with a rough collar. A Bedouin came and seized him roughly by the edge of his cloak, and I saw the marks left on his neck by the collar. Then the Bedouin ordered him to give him some of the wealth of Allaah that he had. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) turned to him and smiled, then ordered that he should be given something.” (Agreed upon. Fath al-Baari, 10/375) Another way in which we can follow the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is by making our anger for the sake of Allaah, when His rights are violated. This is the kind of anger which is praiseworthy. So the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) became angry when he was told about the imaam who was putting people off the prayer by making it too long; when he saw a curtain with pictures of animate creatures in `Aa’ishah’s house; when Usaamah spoke to him about the Makhzoomi woman who had been convicted of theft, and he said “Do you seek to intervene concerning one of the punishments prescribed by Allaah?”; when he was asked questions that he disliked, and so on. His anger was purely for the sake of Allaah. (8) Knowing that resisting anger is one of the signs of righteousness (taqwaa): The righteous (al-muttaqoon) are those praised by Allaah in the Qur’aan and by His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Paradise as wide as heaven and earth has been prepared for them. One of their characteristics is that they (interpretation of the meaning) “spend (in Allaah’s Cause) in prosperity and in adversity, [they] repress anger, and [they] pardon men; verily, Allaah loves al-muhsinoon (the good-doers).” [Aal `Imraan 3:134] These are the ones whose good character and beautiful attributes and deeds Allaah has mentioned, and whom people admire and want to emulate. One of their characteristics is that (interpretation of the meaning) “. . . when they are angry, they forgive.” [al-Shooraa 42:47] (9) Listening to reminders: Anger is a part of human nature, and people vary in their anger. It may be difficult for a man not to get angry, but sincere people will remember Allaah when they are reminded, and they will not overstep the mark. Some examples follow: Ibn `Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that a man sought permission to speak to `Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allaah be pleased with him), then he said: “O son of al-Khattaab, you are not giving us much and you are not judging fairly between us.” `Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) was so angry that he was about to attack the man, but al-Hurr ibn Qays, who was one of those present, said: “O Ameer al-Mu’mineen, Allaah said to His Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) (interpretation of the meaning): `Show forgiveness, enjoin what is good, and turn away from the foolish’ [al- A'raaf 7:199]. This man is one of the foolish.” By Allaah, `Umar could go no further after al-Hurr had recited this aayah to him, and he a man who was careful to adhere to the Book of Allaah. (Reported by al-Bukhaari, al-Fath, 4/304). This is how the Muslim should be. The evil munaafiq (hypocrite) was not like this when he was told the hadeeth of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and one of the Companions said to him, “Seek refuge with Allaah from the Shaytaan.” He said to the one who reminded him, “Do you think I am crazy? Go away!” (Reported by al- Bukhaari, al-Fath, 1/465). We seek refuge with Allaah from failure. (10) Knowing the bad effects of anger: The negative effects of anger are many; in short they cause damage to one’s own self and to others. The angry person may utter words of slander and obscenity, he may attack others (physically) in an uncontrolled manner, even to the point of killing. The following story contains a valuable lesson: `Ilqimah ibn Waa’il reported that his father (may Allaah be pleased with him) told him: “I was sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) when a man came to him leading another man by a rope. He said, `O Messenger of Allaah, this man killed my brother.’ The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) asked him, `Did you kill him?’ He said, `Yes, I killed him.’ He asked, `How did you kill him?’ He said, `He and I were hitting a tree to make the leaves fall, for animal feed, and he slandered me, so I struck him on the side of the head with an axe, and killed him.’ . . .” (Reported by Muslim, 1307, edited by al-Baaqi). Anger could lead to less than killing, such as wounding and breaking bones. If the one who caused the anger runs away, the angry person turns his anger in on himself, so he may tear his clothes, or strike his cheeks, or have a fit, or fall unconscious, or he may break dishes and plates, or break furniture. In the worst cases, anger results in social disasters and the breaking of family ties, i.e., divorce. Ask many of those who divorced their wives, and they will tell you: it was in a moment of anger. This divorce results in misery for the children, regret and frustration, a hard and difficult life, all as a result of anger. If they had remembered Allaah, come to their senses, restrained their anger and sought refuge with Allaah, none of this would have happened. Going against the sharee’ah only results in loss. The damage to health that results from anger can only be described by doctors, such as thrombosis, high blood pressure, tachycardia (abnormally rapid heartbeat) and hyperventilation (rapid, shallow breathing), which can lead to fatal heart attacks, diabetes, etc. We ask Allaah for good health. (11) The angry person should think about himself during moments of anger: If the angry person could see himself in the mirror when he is angry, he would hate himself and the way he looks. If he could see the way he changes, and the way his body and limbs shake, how his eyes glare and how out of control and crazy his behaviour is, he would despise himself and be revolted by his own appearance. It is well-known that inner ugliness is even worse than outer ugliness; how happy the Shaytaan must be when a person is in this state! We seek refuge with Allaah from the Shaytaan and from failure. (12) Du’aa’: Du’aa’ is always the weapon of the believer, whereby he asks Allaah to protect him from evil, trouble and bad behaviour and seeks refuge with Him from falling into the pit of kufr or wrongdoing because of anger. One of the three things that can help save him is: being fair at times of contentment and of anger (Saheeh al-Jaami’, 3039). One of the du’aa’s of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was: “O Allaah, by Your knowledge of the Unseen and Your power over Your creation, keep me alive for as long as You know life is good for me, and cause me to die when You know death is good for me. O Allaah, I ask You to make me fear You in secret and in public, and I ask You to make me speak the truth in times of contentment and of anger. I ask You not to let me be extravagant in poverty or in prosperity. I ask You for continuous blessings, and for contentment that does not end. I ask You to let me accept Your decree, and for a good life after death. I ask You for the joy of seeing Your face and for the longing to meet You, without going through diseases and misguiding fitnah (trials). O Allaah, adorn us with the adornment of faith and make us among those who are guided. Praise be to Allaah, the Lord of the Worlds.” End |
