Du'a

Many a time, we only du'a to Allah swt when we have problems or in some forms of troubles. Let's read this Hadith from The Messenger of Allah:

"Whoever would be pleased to have Allah responds to him during hardship and disaster should make much du'a in times of ease". (al-Tarmidhi)

Supplication(du'a) to Allah is ordered by Him and He promises response:

"Call upon me;I will answer you." (Surah al-Ghafir 40:60)

May I quote Umm Muhamad in his book Realities of Faith:

Du'a is encouraged not only in formal prayers(salah) but at any other time one is inclined to it. It is an important form of worship and is evidence of one's belief in the power and the ability of Almighty.It is an open line of communication between the servant and his Lord.; and by its constant practice,awareness of Him is sustained,and one joins the ranks of:

"...the men and women who remember Allah often".(Surah al-ahzab 33:35)

Du'a is a cause.

Good peringatan, Pak Adib. Thanks.

[Adib]

Zsarina,
Kita yg bernama insan ini semuanya perlu peringatan(khususnya diri saya,yang making tua makin pelupa). Ini adalah kerana kata insan itu berasal dari 'nasiyan' iaitu sifat pelupa.

Banyak urusan dunia melalaikna kita,tapi jika kita sembahyang 5 kali sehari dan sentiasa berzikir,insyaAllah kita tidak akan lagho.(hanyut dan terlupa)

Sama2lah kita berdua semasa kita senang dan tenang;mudah2an Allah akan ingat dan memakbulkan dua kita semasa kita susah atau gelisah.

Dalam kuliah subuh pagi ahad tadi(4/7/04),kami diberitahu bahwa Allah swt malu kpd dua jenis manusia;iaitu bila ia berjalan,dia tunduk kebumi dan ianya selalu menadah tangan kelangit berdu'a kepada Allah.
