dan salju pon berguguran…
Assalamualaikum.
Alhamdulillah praise to Allah who gives me the chance to witness and experience another snowfall for this winter.
Subhanallah glory to Allah its still fascinated me, even though this is my third winter in Birmingham.
Malam itu…sambil mendepangkan tangan dan memutar-mutarkan badan di dalam lebat salju yg berguguran [bukan berguling ye, berputar je], cuba membacakan petikan ayat Quran yg menceritakan mengenai snow…tp lupe ayat dari surah mane.asif kawan2.
i’d better share it here:
"Tidakkah kamu melihat bahawa Allah mengarak awan, kemudian mengumpulkan antaranya, kemudian menjadikannya bertindih-tindih, maka kelihatanlah olehmu hujan keluar dari celah-celahnya, dan Allah juga menurunkan butiran-butiran salji dari langit, iaitu dari (gumpalan-gumpalan awan seperti) gunung-ganang, maka ditimpakannya salji itu kpd siapa yg dikehendakiNya dan dipalingkanNya dari siapa yg dikehendakiNya.Kilauan kilat awan itu hampir-hampir menghilangkan penglihatan." [Surah An Nur : 43]
Point no1: Allah yg create salji ni. takyah kagum or berlagak dgn bandar Birmingham or tanah UK tempat kita blaja ni. bukan British yg hasilkan snow. its the power of Allah that makes it.
Point no2: Allah berkuasa nk bg salji ni turun kat siapa yg dikehendakiNya. tapi takkan le Allah turunkan saja2 kat kita. mesti ade reasons n purposes. i always feel dat snow is created to show His Greatness and His Compassion , so i should make more tasbih n praises to Him. feel His presence as close as i can so i would obey and submit to Him always and only.
Before Allah mentioned bout d snow, Allah has said :
" Tidakkah kamu tahu bahawa Allah, kepadaNya bertasbih apa yang dilangit dan di bumi, dan juga burung dengan mengembangkan sayapnya. Masing-masing telah mengetahui (cara) solat dan tasbihnya, dan Allah Maha Mengetahui apa yg mereka kerjakan. Dan kepunyaan Allahlah kerajaan langi dan bumi, dan kepada Allahlah kembali (semua makhluk). " [An Nur:41,42]
Isn’t it clear enough that Allah wants us to glorify Him, just like all the other creations are glorifying Him in their own ways.
Let us familiarise ourselves wif zikr and tasbih, dont have to wait until next snowfall, coz we dont know when is exactly we are returning to meet Him.
"Wahai orang2 yg beriman, berzikirlah (dengan menyebut nama Allah), zikir yang sebanyak-banyaknya. Dan bertasbihlah kpdNya di waktu pagi dan petang." [Al Ahzab:41,42]
Acctually, i’m not sure whats the specific doa to supplicate during snowfall, but i found one of the Prophet’s (s.a.w.) supplications, which is very beautiful and insyaAllah easy to memorise.
"O Allah, separate me from my sins as You have separated the east and the west. O Allah, cleanse me of my sins as white clothe is cleansed from dirt. O Allah, wash me of my sins with water, ice and snow." [Hadith Abu Daud]
***sape nk doa ni dlm arabic, bley mintak personally***
wallahu’alam.
