Islam Rules All Sides of Human Life for Their Happiness.

 


فتلقى آدم من ربه كلمات فتاب عليه إنه هو التواب الرحيم قلنا اهبطوا منها جميعا فإما يأتينكم مني هدى فمن تبع هداي فلا خوف عليهم ولا هم يحزنون والذين كفروا وكذبوا بآياتنا أولئك أصحاب النار هم فيها خالدون

 "Then Adam received a few sentences from his Rabb, so Allah accepted his repentance. Indeed, Allah is the Most Merciful, the Recipient of repentance. We said: “Come down all of you from heaven! Then when My instructions come to you, then whoever follows My instructions, surely there will be no worries over them, and they will not be sad ”. As for those who disbelieve and deny Our signs, they are inhabitants of hell; they are eternal in it" (Surah Al-Baqarah 37-39)

In the above verse Allah Almighty gives a very fundamental principle of life. "Then if My guidance comes to you, then whoever follows My instructions, surely there will be no worries over them, and they will not be sad."

Allah  emphasized that whoever lives in the world based on the guidance and direction that Allah has given, surely they will not be worried and sad. That is, they will live in goodness and happiness. And if Allah Almighty said so, it is impossible not to be sure to come true. 

And this fact is not only temporary, but forever, aka eternal. Not only goodness and happiness in the mortal world but also in the afterlife which is eternal.

Anyone with a sound mind and a conscience will surely welcome him. And considering that the guarantee has conditions, he will try his best to fulfill the requirements. Even though the conditions are tough, because the guarantee is so tantalizing and comes from a party whose credibility he believes, of course he is ready to face it.

What are the conditions? Allah Almighty said:

فَمَنْ تَبِعَ هُدَايَ

 "... then whoever follows My instructions,"

 Allah requires people to follow His instructions when it comes to them. How did this hint come to humans? Namely, through the official couriers he sent named the Prophets. And in the history of the world Allah has sent a lot of series of His prophets and messengers' alahimus-salam. 

And we who are alive today even in the time of Allah have sent His last Prophet and Messenger, aka the Prophet of the End Times, namely the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam. 

He is the cover of the Prophets and the guidance received from Allah Almighty and conveyed to mankind is the last guidance that Allah has revealed, namely Al-Qur'anul Karim. So it is very appropriate that Allah swt guarantees that His last guidance is a guide whose authenticity (authenticity) will not be contaminated. The Qur'an will be preserved until the Day of Resurrection.


إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ


"Indeed, We are the ones who sent down the Qur'an, and in fact We really do preserve it." (Surah Al-Hijr 9)

 

Unlike the various prophets and messengers who were sent before the last Prophet, they received instructions that were not final and their authenticity was not guaranteed. So that the guidance of Allah that they receive only applies to the people they live with and during their time in the world until the arrival of the next Prophet and Rasulullah. Because the arrival of the previous Prophets and Rasulullah will be further refined with the arrival of the next Prophet and Rasulullah. Until it was Allah's turn to send the Seal of His Prophets and Apostles. 

Therefore, Al-Quranul Karim Allah revealed to the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam to function as the Final Divine Guidance for the Whole of Mankind (Final Divine Guidance for all mankind). Towards the end of this mortal world Allah perfected His guidance to mankind by revealing the perfect, final and comprehensive (complete) Book of Allah. And he sent a Prophetyullah who did not just lead his people (the Arabs), but instead became an example for all mankind, even Grace to the universe.

 

لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ

"Indeed, the Prophet (self) of the Prophet was a good example for you." (Surah Al-Ahzab 21)

 

وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلا رَحْمَةً لِلْعَالَمِينَ

"And we do not send you (Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam), but to (be) a mercy for the universe." (Surah Al-Anbiya 107)

 

Allah's guidance for mankind has come fifteen centuries ago. Received from Allah SWT and distributed to mankind by His last Prophet and Messenger. There will be no more prophets or messengers that Allah will send to this earth bringing new teachings after the revelation of Al-Qur'anul Karim. 

That is why Allah Almighty clearly and clearly says that His guidance is not exclusive to humans who claim to be Muslims, or people who claim to be Muslims. Not..! Absolutely not ..! !

 

شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنُ هُدًى لِلنَّاسِ

 

"The month of Ramadan, the month in which the Qur'an was revealed as a guide for humans." (Surah Al-Baqarah 185)

 

This is the verse that Muslims always hear, especially in the month of Ramadan. It is clear and clear that Allah swt states that the Book of Allah Al-Quranul Karim is hudal lin-naas (guidance for humans). Allah Almighty does not state that these instructions are guidelines for certain human circles, for example only for believers or Muslims or muttaqins alone. Not..! Allah Almighty said that the Book of the Koran is a guide for all mankind.

 

Indeed, there are verses that specify the relationship of the Qur'an to certain human circles, namely as follows:

 

ذَلِكَ الْكِتَابُ لا رَيْبَ فِيهِ هُدًى لِلْمُتَّقِينَ

 

"This Book (of the Qur'an) has no doubt in him; instructions for those who fear . "( QS Al-Baqarah 2)

 

This verse does not negate the previous verse. This verse confirms that the Qur'an is a guide for any human being and regardless of the condition of that human being. As for the muttaqin, aka those who are pious, the Qur'an is treated by them not only as divine guidance, but followed without the slightest doubt ..! It is up to other humans to deny, reject or deny the Qur'an, but in fact it is still a guide from Allah Almighty for all human beings who will eliminate the worries and sorrows of human hearts if they want to follow and make it a guide for their life.

 

Likewise, Allah Almighty threatens anyone who refuses His guidance.

 

وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا أُولَئِكَ أَصْحَابُ النَّارِ هُمْ فِيهَا خَالِدُونَ

 

As for those who disbelieve and deny Our signs, they are inhabitants of hell; they are eternal in it. (Surah Al-Baqarah 39)

 

Rejecting Allah's guidance can be in the form of denying that the Book of Allah Al-Qur'an is an authentic guide from Allah SWT. Such people are clearly a people who have earned the label infidels. They are human beings who after being sent by the Prophet of the Last Time did not want to believe in him as Nabiyullah, did not want to admit that the Qur'an was the last guidance and book of Allah and were unwilling to accept Islam as a religion or deen or the right way of life.

 

In addition, rejecting Allah's guidance can also mean denying it. Do not want to follow it even though they admit it as a guide and the Book of Allah. They can be from outside of Islam but may also include people who claim to be Muslims. For those who are not Muslims, we can understand why they deny this guidance and the Book of Allah. Understandably, they are not including believers. These are non-mulsim people from among modern humans who understand pluralism. They see all the holy books of any religion as holy books that should be respected and recognized as guidance from God. But they certainly wouldn't be willing to follow him as a guide for his life.

 

But what is very difficult to understand and causes many problems are those who on the one hand claim to be Muslim but on the other hand do not use the Book of Allah as a guide for their way of life. They claim to believe in the Qur'an as the guidance and the last Book of Allah. But they never make it a guide for all the affairs of his life in the world. They tend to treat it like a restaurant's food menu. Which they like they take and which they do not taste to him, they leave. Even though Allah swt in His instructions said:

 

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا ادْخُلُوا فِي السِّلْمِ كَافَّةً وَلا تَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطََبِ مََّ ٌُ

 

"O you who believe, enter into Islam as a whole, and do not follow the steps of Satan. Surely Satan is a real enemy for you. " (Surah Al-Baqarah 208)

 

In the above verse Allah Almighty only gives two choices. Enter into the religion of Allah in totality, or live according to the steps of satan ... !! Allah Almighty tells people to follow all His instructions, without choosing or, if not, that means following Allah's enemy, namely satan ..! !

 

The meaning of following all the instructions of Allah is managing the whole affairs of this life solely based on the guidance of revelation. Whatever line of life you are working on, then carry out the procedures according to the instructions of Allah SWT. Both in matters of aqidah (belief), sharia (way of life) and worship (ways of worshiping oneself to Allah SWT).

 

In today's slanderous era, many Muslims view that following Allah's instructions is only a matter of worship. They are very busy studying the teachings of Islam to practice the procedures for prayer, prayer, paying zakat, going for Hajj and Umrah. For these various matters they are very serious in trying to follow Allah's instructions. However, they often ignore matters of aqidah. They do not really study and practice the sentence of Tauhid. In fact, there are still many Muslims who are not aware that the clarity of one's tawheed affects the acceptance of his various acts of worship. Whereas in the Book of Allah the Koran we often find how inseparable the affairs of a person's deeds are from matters of faith.

 

من عمل صالحا من ذكر أو أنثى وهو مؤمن فلنحيينه حياة طيبة ولنجزينهم أجرهم بأحسن ما كانوا يعملون

 

Whoever does good deeds, whether male or female, is in a state of faith, then we will actually give him a good life and we will actually reward them with a better reward than what they have done. (Surah An-Nahl 97)

 

This means that a person's deeds are only counted by Allah SWT if they are based on true faith or aqidah. If not, then his charity will be in vain ..!

 

قل هل ننبئكم بالأخسرين أعمالا الذين ضل سعيهم في الحياة الدنيا وهم يحسبون أنهم يحسنون صنعا أولئك الذين كفروا بآيات ربهم ولقائه فحبطت أعمالهم فلا نقيم لهم يوم القيامة وزنا

 

Say: "Will We tell you about the people who are the most losers for their actions?" That is, people whose deeds are futile in the life of this world, while they think that they are doing their best. They are those who disbelieve in the verses of their Rabb and (disbelieve in) their encounter with Him. Then erase their practices, and We do not make an assessment (of their practice) on the Day of Resurrection. (Surat al-Kahf 103-105)

 

How many people still claim to be Muslim but don't care about matters of faith. They then fell into the valley of polytheism, superstition, khurafat, bid'ah and various forms of dependence on other than Allah SWT. They are busy doing various forms of worship, but never contemplate whether their faith is true, solid and pure. They are busy fixing themselves to become people with noble, moral and courteous character, but they do not realize that the defect in understanding Tauhid causes it to be invaluable in the eyes of Allah Almighty all the goodness and politeness.

 

وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَعْمَالُهُمْ كَسَرَابٍ بِقِيعَةٍ يَحْسَبُهُ الظَّمْآنُ مَاءً حَتَّش إِذَا جَاءَهُ لَمَْْيَا

 

"And those who disbelieve in their deeds are like a mirage on flat land, which thirsty people think is water, but when he comes to the water he does not get anything." (Surah An-Nur 39)

 

In today's slanderous era, many Muslims view that following Allah's instructions is only a matter of worship. They do not make sharia matters a concern in their lives. Even though this affair concerns the majority of the time in his life. Because sharia affairs or way of life cover so many dimensions of life. And Allah's guidance includes how humans should manage the various affairs of their life. Whether it concerns personal, family, community or state affairs, even the arrangement of affairs on a global-world scale. Many modern Muslims think that because today what is known as a developed society and country is the west, they manage these various affairs by following them. Finally, various forms of life arrangement emerged, both in one person, in the family and in the community and in the country which followed western guidance not Allah's guidance.

 

Finally, we see how the life order in the aspects of politics, economy, social, culture, education, law, sports, arts, technology and science, military and defense and security is managed to follow and copy and paste completely to the civilization of the western world. Which is the essence of western civilization is denying the verses of Allah and feeling arrogant and proud of human greatness who do not need to depend on Allah Almighty and His guidance. This is a world civilization that does not follow Allah's guidance ..! Whereas western society is a society of Jews and Christians in which the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam warned us not to follow them ...!

 

قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لتتبعن سنن الذين من قبلكم شبرا بشبر وذراعا بذراع حتى لو دخلوا في جحر ضب لاتبعتموهم قلنا يا رسول الله آليهود والنصارى قال فمن

 

The Messenger of Allah -peace and prayer of Allah be upon him- said: "Really, you will really follow the traditions / habits of the people before you inch by inch and hour by hour, so that if they enter the hole of the lizard, you will definitely follow them." We ask; "O Messenger of Allah, are they Jews and Christians?" He replied: "Who else if not them." (MUSLIM - 4822)

 

It is no secret that western society is Jewish and Christian. They embody a Judeo-Christian Civilization (Judeo-Christian civilization). It is ironic to witness how one and a half billion more Muslims in the world can become victims of a civilization that is cut off from Allah's guidance. How is it possible for an ummah who has the Book of Allah Al-Qur'an which Allah guarantees its truth and authenticity to be directed by those ummah whose Holy Scriptures - namely the Torah and the Gospel - have experienced contamination and manipulation here and there? How could a people whom Allah has warned of the dangers of most of the Jews and Christians, yet still have good faith in them? Making them a consultant and a place to ask questions in various matters of life?

 

وَلَنْ تَرْضَى عَنْكَ الْيَهُودُ وَلا النَّصَارَى حَتَّى تَتَّبِعَ مِلَّتَهُمْ

 

"The Jews and Christians will not like you until you follow their religion." (Surah Al-Baqarah 120)

 

Indeed, the condition of the world today is shrouded in a storm of slander, so that we see so many Muslims who are not critical of the world reality that goes outside the corridors of Allah's guidance. Whereas the essence of being above shirathal mustaqiim (straight path) is when all matters in life follow the instructions of Allah SWT, whether in matters of aqidah, sharia or worship. This is the meaning of Allah's expression below:

 

قُلْ إِنَّ صَلاتِي وَنُسُكِي وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ لا شَرِينكَ لَهُ لِمِذَنُ

 

Say: Verily, my prayers, my worship, my life and my death are only for Allah, the Lord of the worlds, there is no partner for Him; and that is what I was ordered to do and I am a Muslim first (to submit to Allah) ". (Surah Al-An'aam 162)

 

The last guidance of Allah SWT for mankind has come since fifteen centuries ago. Shouldn't we, who claim to be Muslims, believers and muttaqiins, stand at the forefront of guiding all other human beings to live together under the auspices of Allah's guidance? Leave the false civilization (read: kafir civilization) of this modern world to replace it with a civilization following Allah's Guidance?

 

How will this happen, if we are so easily provoked and become angry watching the western infidels burn the Holy Qur'an physically while we are not the least bit disturbed, even though it has been nearly a century that Muslims in various Muslim countries have managed their lives following the instructions of these western infidels and ignore and even deny Allah's Guidance ..? ! Should we still be amazed and dumbfounded and ask why worry and heartache still color the lives of many modern humans today, not only those who are clearly infidels, but many of whom are our brothers and sisters, the Muslims? ? Laa haula wa laa quwwata illa billah ..
