the signs
Some live as signs.
For those who knew, just let the time through. Even afterall, we're not here and knew as we want to.
The instinct to tell, to fix, to forbid are merely signs that we live well to our heart, that feels. But, beware of the line, as it is the true ordeal, drawn, that we would somehow find.

Hints
Somehow I'm beginning to see the prayers -- the taught ones, not the 'hopes-filled-with-desire' ones -- that we knew since we were kids, may contain immense hints to comprehend the true aspects on the things we do prior, after, or during the situation the prayers is needed to be performed.
Somehow they would also anticipate the situation in the future concerning the time of which the prayers will truly take effect, which we then would know through later experience.
Yet, somehow, for now, all we need to do is only to do it, with heed. Then, to be grateful when it eventually materialises. and not trying to guess, or second-guess, or feel upset.

Once in a Blue Moon
"31 August 2012 was the night when the earth witnessed the blue moon, the second full moon in a month" Therefore within a month of the blue moon, there would be two occurences of full moon, more likely once in the beginning and another one at the end of the month.
Though the statement looks somewhat correct, the truth might be invalid. If we notice, the word moon and month are somewhat different, hence the rareness of the event. But, if we carefully look through deeply into this statement, we could infere that the counting of days in A MONTH (moon) was not actually defined by the moon's appearences, but rather by the counting of days to fit a year. That a year should be about 365-6 days , which then divided by twelve then distributed to each cluster, called month. Thus, a month consists of 28-31 days. But why 12? when it could be easily devided by any other number? We know that there was once in roman era, a year consisted only of 8 months. and then much later, the months were added.
Had we used Lunar Calendar, blue moon would highly be improbable, as a month is the completion of moon phases ; wanning and waxing. and crescent is the start and the end. and through counting, there's either only 29 or 30 days in a month. So, there would be only one occurence of full moon in a month.
Therefore, in solar calendar, a month does not immidiately define its meaning.
then the questions...
1. What was initially defined as 'a month' during the conception of solar calendar? What happened then?
2. As it also consist of 12 months, what is actually a year in lunar calendar?
3. What would matter to earth if a year is not about its revolution towards the sun? What actually repeats?

Prophet Muhammad SAW Last Sermon (9th-Zulhijjah-10H) in the 'Uranah valley of Mount Arafat' (in Mecca)
I got very curios to look up for the translation after coming across today's episode of the series 'OMAR', especially on the last part where he was speaking to Asma' about Prophet's last sermon during the Hajj. The following is a direct copy from here
After praising, and thanking Allah he said:
"O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and TAKE THESE WORDS TO THOSE WHO COULD NOT BE PRESENT HERE TODAY.
O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as Sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your LORD, and that HE will indeed reckon your deeds. ALLAH has forbidden you to take usury (interest), therefore all interest obligation shall henceforth be waived. Your capital, however, is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer any inequity. Allah has Judged that there shall be no interest and that all the interest due to Abbas ibn 'Abd'al Muttalib (Prophet's uncle) shall henceforth be waived...
Beware of Satan, for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.
O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to your women, but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives only under Allah's trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with any one of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste.
O People, listen to me in earnest, worship ALLAH, say your five daily prayers (Salah), fast during the month of Ramadan, and give your wealth in Zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to.
All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to yourselves.
Remember, one day you will appear before ALLAH and answer your deeds. So beware, do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.
O People, NO PROPHET OR APOSTLE WILL COME AFTER ME AND NO NEW FAITH WILL BE BORN. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the QURAN and my example, the SUNNAH and if you follow these you will never go astray.
All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen to me directly. Be my witness, O ALLAH, that I have conveyed your message to your people".

“HAI MANUSIA, DENGARLAH BAIK-BAIK APA YANG HENDAK KUKATAKAN. AKU TIDAK MENGETAHUI APAKAH AKU DAPAT BERTEMU LAGI DENGAN KAMU SEMUA SELEPAS TAHUN INI. KARENA ITU DENGARLAH DENGAN TELITI KATA-KATAKU INI DAN SAMPAIKANLAH KEPADA ORANG-ORANG YANG TIDAK DAPAT HADIR DISINI PADA HARI INI.
WAHAI MANUSIA, SEBAGAIMANA KAMU MENGANGGAP BULAN INI DAN KOTA INI SUCI, MAKA ANGGAPLAH JIWA DAN HARTA SETIAP ORANG MUSLIM SEBAGAI AMANAH YANG SUCI. KEMBALIKANLAH HARTA YANG DIAMANAHKAN KEPADA KAMU PADA PEMILIKNYA YANG BERHAK. JANGANLAH KAMU SAKITI SIAPAPUN AGAR ORANG LAIN TIDAK MENYAKITI KAMU PULA. INGATLAH BAHWA SESUNGGUHNYA KAMU AKAN MENEMUI TUHAN KAMU, DAN DIA PASTI MEMBUAT PERHITUNGAN DI ATAS SEGALA AMALAN KAMU. ALLAH TELAH MENGHARAMKAN RIBA’. OLEH ITU SEGALA URUSAN YANG MELIBATKAN RIBA’ DIBATALKAN MULAI SEKARANG.
WASPADALAH TERHADAP SYEITAN DEMI KESELAMATAN AGAMA KAMU. DIA TELAH BERPUTUS ASA UNTUK MENYESATKAN KAMU DALAM PERKARA-PERKARA BESAR, MAKA BERJAGA-JAGALAH SUPAYA KAMU TIDAK MENGIKUTINYA DALAM PERKARA-PERKARA KECIL.
WAHAI MANUSIA SEBAGAIMANA KAMU MEMPUNYAI HAK ATAS PARA ISTERI KAMU, MEREKA JUGA MEMPUNYAI HAK ATAS KAMU. SEKIRANYA MEREKA MENYEMPURNAKAN HAK MEREKA ATAS KAMU, MEREKA JUGA BERHAK UNTUK DIBERI MAKAN DAN PAKAIAN, DALAM SUASANA KASIH SAYANG. LAYANILAH WANITA-WANITA KAMU DENGAN BAIK DAN BERLEMAH-LEMBUTLAH TERHADAP MEREKA KARENA SESUNGGUHNYA MEREKA ADALAH TEMAN DAN PEMBANTU KAMU YANG SETIA. DAN HAK KAMU ATAS MEREKA IALAH SAMA SEKALI TIDAK BOLEH MEMASUKKAN ORANG YANG KAMU TIDAK SUKAI KE DALAM RUMAH KAMU DAN DILARANG MELAKUKAN ZINA.
WAHAI MANUSIA, DENGARLAH SUNGGUH-SUNGGUH KATAKU INI. SEMBAHLAH ALLAH, DIRIKANLAH SHOLAT LIMA KALI SEHARI, BERPUASALAH DI BULAN RAMADHAN DAN TUNAIKANLAH ZAKAT DARI HARTA KEKAYAAN KAMU. KERJAKANLAH IBADAH HAJI SEKIRANYA KAMU MAMPU KETAHUILAH BAHWA SETIAP MUSLIM ADALAH BERSAUDARA KEPADA MUSLIM YANG LAIN. KAMU SEMUA ADALAH SAMA, TIDAK SEORANGPUN YANG LEBIH MULIA DARI YANG LAINNYA KECUALI DALAM TAQWA DAN BERAMAL SOLEH.
INGATLAH BAHWA KAMU AKAN MENGHADAP ALLAH PADA SUATU HARI NANTI UNTUK DIPERTANGGUNG-JAWABKAN ATAS SEGALA APA YANG TELAH KAMU KERJAKAN. KARENA ITU BERHATI-HATILAH AGAR JANGAN SEKALI-KALI KAMU KELUAR DARI LANDASAN KEBENARAN SELEPAS KETIADAANKU.
WAHAI MANUSIA, TIDAK ADA LAGI NABI DAN RASUL YANG AKAN DATANG SELEPASKU DAN TIDAK AKAN LAHIR AGAMA BARU. KARENA ITU WAHAI MANUSIA, NILAILAH DENGAN BETUL DAN FAHAMILAH KATA-KATA YANG TELAH AKU SAMPAIKAN KEPADA KAMU. SESUNGGUHNYA AKU TINGGALKAN KEPADA KAMU DUA PERKARA, YANG SEKIRANYA KAMU BERPEGANG TEGUH DAN MENGIKUTI KEDUA-DUANYA NISCAYA KAMU TIDAK AKAN TERSESAT SELAMA LAMANYA.
ITULAH AL-QURAN DAN SUNNAHKU.
HENDAKLAH ORANG-ORANG YANG MENDENGAR UCAPANKU MENYAMPAIKANNYA PULA KEPADA ORANG LAIN DAN HENDAKLAH ORANG LAIN ITU MENYAMPAIKANNYA PULA KEPADA YANG LAIN. SEMOGA YANG TERAKHIR LEBIH MEMAHAMI KATA KATAKU DARI MEREKA YANG MENDENGAR TERUS (LANGSUNG) DARIKU.
SAKSIKAN YA ALLAH BAHWASANYA AKU TELAH SAMPAIKAN RISALAHMU KEPADA HAMBA-HAMBAMU.

"Wahai manusia, dengarlah baik-baik apa yang hendak kukatakan, Aku tidak mengetahui apakah aku dapat bertemu lagi dengan kamu semua selepas tahun ini. Oleh itu dengarlah dengan telti kata-kataku ini dan sampaikanlah ia kepada orang-orang yang tidak dapat hadir disini pada hari ini.
Wahai manusia, sepertimana kamu menganggap bulan ini dan Kota ini sebagai suci, maka anggaplah jiwa dan harta setiap orang Muslim sebagai amanah suci.Kembalikan harta yang diamanahkan kepada kamu kepada pemiliknya yang berhak.Janganlah kamu sakiti sesiapapun agar orang lain tidak menyakiti kami lagi. Ingatlah bahawa sesungguhnya, kamu akan menemui Tuhan kamu dan Dia pasti membuat perhitungan diatas segala amalan kamu. Allah telah mengharamkan riba, oleh itu segala urusan yang melibatkan riba dibatalkan sekarang.
Berwaspadalah terhadap syaitan demi keselamatan agama kamu. Dia telah berputus asa untuk menyesatkan kamu dalam perkara-perkara besar, maka berjaga-jagalah supaya kamu tidak mengikuti dalam perkara-perkara kecil.
Wahai Manusia Sebagaimana kamu mempunyai hak atas isteri kamu mereka juga mempunyai hak di atas kamu. Sekiranya mereka menyempurnakan hak mereka keatas kamu, maka mereka, juga berhak untuk diberi makan dan pakaian dalam Susana kasih sayang. Layanilah wanita-wanita kamu dengan baik dan berlemah-lembutlah terhadap mereka kerana sesungguhnya mereka adalah teman dan pembantu kamu yang setia. Dan hak kamu atas mereka ialah mereka sama sekali tidak boleh memasukkan orang yang kamu tidak sukai kedalam rumah kamu dan dilarang melakukan zina.
Wahai Manusia, dengarlah bersungguh-sungguh kata-kataku ini, sembahlah Allah, dirikanlah sembahyang lima kali sehari, berpuasalah di bulan Ramadhan, dan tunaikankanlah zakat dari harta kekayaan kamu. Kerjakanlah Ibadah Haji sekiranya kamu mampu. Ketahui bahawa setiap Muslim adalah saudara kepada Muslim yang lain. Kamu semua adalah sama; tidak seorang pun yang lebih mulia dari yang lainnya kecuali dalam Taqwa dan beramal saleh.
Ingatlah, bahawa, kamu akan menghadap Allah pada suatu hari untuk dipertanggung jawabkan diatas segala apa yang telah kamu kerjakan. Oleh itu Awasilah agar jangan sekali-kali kamu terkeluar dari landasan kebenaran selepas ketiadaaku.
Wahai Manusia, tidak ada lagi Nabi atau Rasul yang akan datang selepasku dan tidak akan ada lain agama baru. Oleh itu wahai manusia, nilailah dengan betul dan fahamilah kata-kataku yang telah aku sampaikan kepada kamu. Sesungguhnya aku tinggalkan kepada kamu dua perkara yang sekiranya kamu berpegang teguh dan mengikuti kedua-duanya, necaya kamu tidak akan tersesat selama-lamanya. Itulah ALQURAN dan SUNNAHKU.
Hendaklah orang-orang yang mendengar ucapanku, menyampaikan pula kepada orang lain. Semoga yang terakhir lebih memahami kata-kataku dari mereka yang terus mendengar dariku. Saksikanlah Ya Allah, bahawasanya telah aku sampaikan risalahMu kepada hamba-hambaMU."

After praising, and thanking Allah he said:
"O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and TAKE THESE WORDS TO THOSE WHO COULD NOT BE PRESENT HERE TODAY.
O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as Sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your LORD, and that HE will indeed reckon your deeds. ALLAH has forbidden you to take usury (interest), therefore all interest obligation shall henceforth be waived. Your capital, however, is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer any inequity. Allah has Judged that there shall be no interest and that all the interest due to Abbas ibn 'Abd'al Muttalib (Prophet's uncle) shall henceforth be waived...
Beware of Satan, for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.
O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to your women, but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives only under Allah's trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with any one of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste.
O People, listen to me in earnest, worship ALLAH, say your five daily prayers (Salah), fast during the month of Ramadan, and give your wealth in Zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to.
All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to yourselves.
Remember, one day you will appear before ALLAH and answer your deeds. So beware, do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.
O People, NO PROPHET OR APOSTLE WILL COME AFTER ME AND NO NEW FAITH WILL BE BORN. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the QURAN and my example, the SUNNAH and if you follow these you will never go astray.
All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen to me directly. Be my witness, O ALLAH, that I have conveyed your message to your people".

“HAI MANUSIA, DENGARLAH BAIK-BAIK APA YANG HENDAK KUKATAKAN. AKU TIDAK MENGETAHUI APAKAH AKU DAPAT BERTEMU LAGI DENGAN KAMU SEMUA SELEPAS TAHUN INI. KARENA ITU DENGARLAH DENGAN TELITI KATA-KATAKU INI DAN SAMPAIKANLAH KEPADA ORANG-ORANG YANG TIDAK DAPAT HADIR DISINI PADA HARI INI.
WAHAI MANUSIA, SEBAGAIMANA KAMU MENGANGGAP BULAN INI DAN KOTA INI SUCI, MAKA ANGGAPLAH JIWA DAN HARTA SETIAP ORANG MUSLIM SEBAGAI AMANAH YANG SUCI. KEMBALIKANLAH HARTA YANG DIAMANAHKAN KEPADA KAMU PADA PEMILIKNYA YANG BERHAK. JANGANLAH KAMU SAKITI SIAPAPUN AGAR ORANG LAIN TIDAK MENYAKITI KAMU PULA. INGATLAH BAHWA SESUNGGUHNYA KAMU AKAN MENEMUI TUHAN KAMU, DAN DIA PASTI MEMBUAT PERHITUNGAN DI ATAS SEGALA AMALAN KAMU. ALLAH TELAH MENGHARAMKAN RIBA’. OLEH ITU SEGALA URUSAN YANG MELIBATKAN RIBA’ DIBATALKAN MULAI SEKARANG.
WASPADALAH TERHADAP SYEITAN DEMI KESELAMATAN AGAMA KAMU. DIA TELAH BERPUTUS ASA UNTUK MENYESATKAN KAMU DALAM PERKARA-PERKARA BESAR, MAKA BERJAGA-JAGALAH SUPAYA KAMU TIDAK MENGIKUTINYA DALAM PERKARA-PERKARA KECIL.
WAHAI MANUSIA SEBAGAIMANA KAMU MEMPUNYAI HAK ATAS PARA ISTERI KAMU, MEREKA JUGA MEMPUNYAI HAK ATAS KAMU. SEKIRANYA MEREKA MENYEMPURNAKAN HAK MEREKA ATAS KAMU, MEREKA JUGA BERHAK UNTUK DIBERI MAKAN DAN PAKAIAN, DALAM SUASANA KASIH SAYANG. LAYANILAH WANITA-WANITA KAMU DENGAN BAIK DAN BERLEMAH-LEMBUTLAH TERHADAP MEREKA KARENA SESUNGGUHNYA MEREKA ADALAH TEMAN DAN PEMBANTU KAMU YANG SETIA. DAN HAK KAMU ATAS MEREKA IALAH SAMA SEKALI TIDAK BOLEH MEMASUKKAN ORANG YANG KAMU TIDAK SUKAI KE DALAM RUMAH KAMU DAN DILARANG MELAKUKAN ZINA.
WAHAI MANUSIA, DENGARLAH SUNGGUH-SUNGGUH KATAKU INI. SEMBAHLAH ALLAH, DIRIKANLAH SHOLAT LIMA KALI SEHARI, BERPUASALAH DI BULAN RAMADHAN DAN TUNAIKANLAH ZAKAT DARI HARTA KEKAYAAN KAMU. KERJAKANLAH IBADAH HAJI SEKIRANYA KAMU MAMPU KETAHUILAH BAHWA SETIAP MUSLIM ADALAH BERSAUDARA KEPADA MUSLIM YANG LAIN. KAMU SEMUA ADALAH SAMA, TIDAK SEORANGPUN YANG LEBIH MULIA DARI YANG LAINNYA KECUALI DALAM TAQWA DAN BERAMAL SOLEH.
INGATLAH BAHWA KAMU AKAN MENGHADAP ALLAH PADA SUATU HARI NANTI UNTUK DIPERTANGGUNG-JAWABKAN ATAS SEGALA APA YANG TELAH KAMU KERJAKAN. KARENA ITU BERHATI-HATILAH AGAR JANGAN SEKALI-KALI KAMU KELUAR DARI LANDASAN KEBENARAN SELEPAS KETIADAANKU.
WAHAI MANUSIA, TIDAK ADA LAGI NABI DAN RASUL YANG AKAN DATANG SELEPASKU DAN TIDAK AKAN LAHIR AGAMA BARU. KARENA ITU WAHAI MANUSIA, NILAILAH DENGAN BETUL DAN FAHAMILAH KATA-KATA YANG TELAH AKU SAMPAIKAN KEPADA KAMU. SESUNGGUHNYA AKU TINGGALKAN KEPADA KAMU DUA PERKARA, YANG SEKIRANYA KAMU BERPEGANG TEGUH DAN MENGIKUTI KEDUA-DUANYA NISCAYA KAMU TIDAK AKAN TERSESAT SELAMA LAMANYA.
ITULAH AL-QURAN DAN SUNNAHKU.
HENDAKLAH ORANG-ORANG YANG MENDENGAR UCAPANKU MENYAMPAIKANNYA PULA KEPADA ORANG LAIN DAN HENDAKLAH ORANG LAIN ITU MENYAMPAIKANNYA PULA KEPADA YANG LAIN. SEMOGA YANG TERAKHIR LEBIH MEMAHAMI KATA KATAKU DARI MEREKA YANG MENDENGAR TERUS (LANGSUNG) DARIKU.
SAKSIKAN YA ALLAH BAHWASANYA AKU TELAH SAMPAIKAN RISALAHMU KEPADA HAMBA-HAMBAMU.

"Wahai manusia, dengarlah baik-baik apa yang hendak kukatakan, Aku tidak mengetahui apakah aku dapat bertemu lagi dengan kamu semua selepas tahun ini. Oleh itu dengarlah dengan telti kata-kataku ini dan sampaikanlah ia kepada orang-orang yang tidak dapat hadir disini pada hari ini.
Wahai manusia, sepertimana kamu menganggap bulan ini dan Kota ini sebagai suci, maka anggaplah jiwa dan harta setiap orang Muslim sebagai amanah suci.Kembalikan harta yang diamanahkan kepada kamu kepada pemiliknya yang berhak.Janganlah kamu sakiti sesiapapun agar orang lain tidak menyakiti kami lagi. Ingatlah bahawa sesungguhnya, kamu akan menemui Tuhan kamu dan Dia pasti membuat perhitungan diatas segala amalan kamu. Allah telah mengharamkan riba, oleh itu segala urusan yang melibatkan riba dibatalkan sekarang.
Berwaspadalah terhadap syaitan demi keselamatan agama kamu. Dia telah berputus asa untuk menyesatkan kamu dalam perkara-perkara besar, maka berjaga-jagalah supaya kamu tidak mengikuti dalam perkara-perkara kecil.
Wahai Manusia Sebagaimana kamu mempunyai hak atas isteri kamu mereka juga mempunyai hak di atas kamu. Sekiranya mereka menyempurnakan hak mereka keatas kamu, maka mereka, juga berhak untuk diberi makan dan pakaian dalam Susana kasih sayang. Layanilah wanita-wanita kamu dengan baik dan berlemah-lembutlah terhadap mereka kerana sesungguhnya mereka adalah teman dan pembantu kamu yang setia. Dan hak kamu atas mereka ialah mereka sama sekali tidak boleh memasukkan orang yang kamu tidak sukai kedalam rumah kamu dan dilarang melakukan zina.
Wahai Manusia, dengarlah bersungguh-sungguh kata-kataku ini, sembahlah Allah, dirikanlah sembahyang lima kali sehari, berpuasalah di bulan Ramadhan, dan tunaikankanlah zakat dari harta kekayaan kamu.

Here's the Arabic copy, taken from here
أيها الناس اسمعوا مني أبين لكم فإني لا أدري لعلى لا ألقاكم بعد عامي هذا في موقفي هذا.
أيها الناس إن دماءكم وأعراضكم حرام عليكم إلى أن تلقوا ربكم كحرمة يومكم هذا في شهركم هذا في بلدكم هذا – ألا هل بلغت اللهم فاشهد، فمن كانت عنده أمانة فليؤدها إلى من ائتمنه عليها.
وإن ربا الجاهلية موضوع ولكن لكم رؤوس أموالكم لا تظلمون ولا تظلمون وقضى الله أنه لا ربا. وإن أول ربا أبدأ به عمي العباس بن عبد المطلب.
وإن دماء الجاهلية موضوعة، وإن أول دم نبدأ به دم عامر بن ربيعة بن الحارث بن عبد المطلب وإن مآثر الجاهلية موضوعة غير السدانة والسقاية والعمد قود وشبه العمد ما قتل بالعصا والحجر وفيه مائة بعير، فمن زاد فهو من أهل الجاهلية – ألا هل بلغت اللهم فاشهد.
أما بعد أيها الناس إن الشيطان قد يئس أن يعبد في أرضكم هذه، ولكنه قد رضي أن يطاع فيما سوى ذلك مما تحرقون من أعمالكم فاحذروه على دينكم، أيها الناس إنما النسئ زيادة في الكفر يضل به الذين كفروا يحلونه عاماً ويحرمونه عاماً ليوطئوا عدة ما حرم الله فيحلوا ما حرم الله ويحرموا ما أحل الله. وإن الزمان قد استدار كهيئته يوم خلق الله السماوات والأرض، وإن عدة الشهور عند الله اثنا عشر شهراً في كتاب الله يوم خلق الله السماوات والأرض، منها أربعة حرم ثلاثة متواليات وواحد فرد: ذو القعدة وذو الحجة والمحرم ورجب مضر الذي بين جمادى وشعبان – ألا هل بلغت اللهم فاشهد.
أما بعد أيها الناس إن لنسائكم عليكم حقاً ولكم عليهن حق. لكم أن لا يواطئن فرشهم غيركم، ولا يدخلن أحداً تكرهونه بيوتكم إلا بإذنكم ولا يأتين بفاحشة، فإن فعلن فإن الله قد أذن لكم أن تعضلوهن وتهجروهن في المضاجع وتضربوهن ضرباً غير مبرح، فإن انتهين وأطعنكم فعليكم رزقهن وكسوتهن بالمعروف، واستوصوا بالنساء خيراً، فإنهن عندكم عوان لا يملكن لأنفسهن شيئاً، وإنكم إنما أخذتموهن بأمانة الله واستحللتم فروجهن بكلمة الله فاتقوا الله في النساء واستوصوا بهن خيراً – ألا هل بلغت....اللهم فاشهد.
أيها الناس إنما المؤمنون إخوة ولا يحل لامرئ مال لأخيه إلا عن طيب نفس منه – ألا هل بلغت اللهم فاشهد.
فلا ترجعن بعدى كافراً يضرب بعضكم رقاب بعض، فإني قد تركت فيكم ما إن أخذتم به لن تضلوا بعده: كتاب الله وسنة نبيه، ألا هل بلغت ... اللهم فاشهد.
أيها الناس إن ربكم واحد وإن أباكم واحد كلكم لآدم وآدم من تراب أكرمكم عند الله اتقاكم، وليس لعربي على عجمي فضل إلا بالتقوى – ألا هل بلغت....اللهم فاشهد قالوا نعم – قال فليبلغ الشاهد الغائب.
أيها الناس إن الله قد قسم لكل وارث نصيبه من الميراث ولا يجوز لوارث وصية، ولا يجوز وصية في أكثر من ثلث، والولد للفراش وللعاهر الحجر. من ادعى إلى غير أبيه أو تولى غير مواليه فعليه لعنة الله والملائكة والناس أجمعين لا يقبل منه صرف ولا عدل. والسلام عليكم.

Learned this (secretly) from a friend
To start with, this post has no other intention but only to share what might be good for its reader :)
Happy Ramadhan. Praises Be To God for once again allowing us to be in this most blessful month of the year. We surely won't waste this month doing nothing, and hopefully all of our deeds will be rewarded with the best rewards here and the hereafter.
Hmm. How should I start this... I guess some of us had undergone different childhood and upbringings. As for me, things were not as easily available as where I'm now. (Alhamdulilah) but there are things that I felt that needed to be changed. coz as people prosper, we become more eligible to be responsible for others, in this case, the needy. But, let's just don't go there yet.
This is probably part of skill. yes, not just simply somehing that is Ordered. but probably innate within you that you probably didnt realize that you're capable of. or should i say, you are not that incapable. meaning, there is Rizq Promised, Written, before your existence, and therefore, you're probably would want to try to break your mindset that you're left with nothing. As the saying goes, the more you give the more you recieve, and that thing that you give (sincerely) will Clean yourself off things that do not belong to you. But yet, somehow the past, the upbringings, somewhat sipped through and carried over to your adulthood, that is somewhat uneasy to let go.
So, let's get into this. . . As kids some of us probably had experienced this : Given some coins (or a note) of small change, then we put it into the donation box distributed prior/after the congregation prayers. and the same thing for the next friday, or other times during lebaran(s). Some of us probably still experience this up to today, that is to give exclusively only small change for donation. I still did about few years ago though. Until one day during my stay in M'sia I saw a friend who gave an amount that was abit startling to me, knowing his economic situation at that time. I noticed that he put a big note (of RM10 or about Rp30.000) into the box, whilst he himself was in a rather uneasy end-of-the-month situation. This happened few times, in several occarions before Friday prayers.
For me, it wasn't that easy to let go such amount at first, considering I may not be able to buy other things if I regularly donate my own money that much -or that I'm just not used to it- But, somewhat I'm poised to try. Starting off with whatever coins, be it 5, 10 or 50 cents. I later got used to simply grabbed whatever coins in my pocket without counting. Then, the weeks after, I gradually increased it with whatever coins and small notes in my pocket. Meaning, if there's RM 1 note, I'll give it together with the coins. RM 1 was considered valuable amount at that time, especially at the end of the month, as you could still buy decent food by adding only 20 cents (Roti Canai kosong = RM 1.20). Some months after, things started to feel different, it became very easy to give 'just like that'. I got less hesitant to put in any amount, even the bigger notes.
It wasn't just about getting myself used to it though. There was another thing that i learned from the experience . Back then, I would usually went out on the weekends, having dinner outside, going to the malls, hang out with friends or just simply go to the nearest mall (Sunway Pyramid) to do grocery shopping. During this 'self-training' session, I felt that, the urge to go out had never been that high if I donated on Friday, regardless the amount. In other events there usually wont be any spendings on unnecesary things whenever I go out. Somewhat it prevented me from purchasing other stuffs (other than what originally planned to) which I normally took during grocery shopping before.
On the days when I didnt give out though - either I forgot or managed to came up with "excuses" to not to give- I started noticing that there would be something on the weekend that would make me awfully regretful, such as buying extra pack of potato chips that would then got me sore throat, carbonated drinks which then got me gastric, new CDs that I listened only once (I copied it to my laptop afyerwards), magazines which I looked instead of read, stupid self motivational books, or other goods that appealed to the eye, but were not really necessary or not doing any good for your mind and health, if you know what i mean. It's either that or someone would ask me to go out to places that I eventually felt not taking any benefit from, other than, making me broke (including paying double charge for a midnight cab ride to return home). But then usually, it would be gone if i made it up the next day.
Later on, these experiences somehow made me think, or should I say, it came to my realization, that probably both events had somewhat cause-and-effect relationship as it kept repeating several times. Not sure how to comprehend this, but probably you want to try it yourself and see. and then tell me. I would say, this has something to do with the promised Rizq bestowed upon us as we were born. that regardless how much we give, it'll return in better ways, unexpected ways, or it'll purify ours from things that are not beneficial for us. But I dont know. God Knows. God is Great.
Rabbi zidni 'ilma(n) war zuqni fahma(n).
Again, this has no other means intended, but only to share what I thought would be good for whoever reads it.
