Semester Break!

Assalamualaikum, good day everyone! Of late I've been busy juggling between work and study whilst also supervising them kids e-learning at home. It is quite tiring but however it is worth the time spent as well. During this trying time in the pandemic, we try to get back to routine but in the new normal. The government of His Majesty especially the Mistry of Health has been working very hard to ensure the safety and health of the rakyat and its resident as its main priority. Therefore we must comply and adhere to every guidelines and health protocol  for the good of this country. 

Whilst in less than a month now to 12 Rabiulawal, we will commemorate Maulidurrasul. It is commonly observed by muslims worldwide as one of the matters is to develop and thickens our love to our beloved Prophet Muhammad 

Just completed late last evening, I have created an e-poster as part of my Sirah Nabawiyah project. This is meant for educational and my target viewers are among students but actually it is good for everybody too of course. Insya Allah I will workhard to post more on our beloved prophet's teachings on this space in due course.

Happy 15th birthday Saádah, semoga sentiasa dalam perlindungan dan rahmat Allah. Sukses dalam bidang akademik dan melaksanakan perkerjaan yang diberkati Allah. With much love babu & bapa:)

Ahhh, about this one. Recently I enrolled myself in a 2-day online training for Sports Commentator which is also joined by fellow broadcaster from various countries. It took us 6-hours at one seating! But of course it is worth a long seat I must say. 

Some weeks back, I went to the office for some essentials although we were not required to come over for nothing. Alhamdulillah, good to see my boss and colleague are fit and healthy! My boss Salmi quite busy with her essentials do.

Good to see Sarina too after her breakfast show. Always informative and insightful discussion with her I must say, good to see her fit and healthy as well. Take care & stay safe!

Lifelong Learning.

Assalamualaikum, good day everyone! Ahhh...as I mentioned in the previous entry, I've been away for such a very long time and there's a friend been asking of why the lack of update on this space or even better 'why no more blog post?' 

As everybody made known, most people tend to choose micro-blog better such as Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp to keep everybody posted. Easy to use and it is with-in reach. We post updates and very quickly we get responses from our peer, which is fun!

Alright, since the 1st pandemic sometimes in March 2020 and the 2nd wave in August 2021, most people were unable to do their routine commitment be it in the office, school or even at home. Since then, we have adapted to the new normal which we must comply. Travelling was never easy too then but only for essential travellers.

As for myself, despite the hardship it creates I see this is also as an opportunity for me to develop my skills in different area. I have engaged myself into a lifelong learning programme at UNISSA I find it very useful and of course rewarding. 

Now in the 3rd semester, we were asked to produce a short clip to create awareness to the public on the importance of staying safe by adhering the health protocol and to seek the help of the Almighty by 'Vaksin Ketuhanan'.

Not the best of clip, it is done using with a Samsung S10+ and by a university student which is myself (not as a broadcaster).


This was taken after I did my video filming. Didn't see my colleague Nadzirah for weeks, good to see my buddy again after weeks of self-isolation. It coincides too, we were colour coordinates! #blackpink

2nd Wave

Local newspapers headlines

Assalamualaikum, good day everyone. Has anyone of you my dear readers seen that coming? Allahuakbar, i too didn't see that, the '2nd wave' is going to hit us but it did! 

It was on the 8th August 2021, the long missing daily MOH's press conference making its comeback to give us an update of Covid-19's current status in the country. I was listening the press-con via RTBGO.bn  while waiting for my 2nd dose of Moderna Vaccine at Hassanal Bolkiah National Sports Complex, Indoor Stadium.

From that moment, all the public nationwide were asked to follow the health protocol that we used to apply during the 1st wave of Covid-19 in the country.


The first day at work and getting back into new-normal. By the way, it's been a longtime I didn't write on this space. But from today onwards since it is a working from home season, i will try my best to keep this space update. Wassalam.

Hadis & Kesihatan

Hadis adalah begitu sinonim dengan Sunnah. Menurut istilah (terminologi) ahli-ahli Hadis, Sunnah adalah sabda, perkerjaan, ketetapan, sifat (watak budi atau jasmani); atau tingkah laku Nabi Muhammad Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam, baik sebelum menjadi Nabi mahupun sesudahnya. Dengan erti ini, menurut majoriti ulama, Sunnah sinonim dengan Hadis.

Menurut ahli-ahli usul fiqih, Sunnah adalah sabda Nabi Muhammad Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam yang bukan berasal dari al-Quran, pekerjaan atau ketetapannya.[1]

Ahli-ahli fiqih (fuqaha) pula berpendapat, Sunnah adalah hal-hal yang berasal dari Nabi Muhammad Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam baik ucapan mahupun pekerjaan, akan tetapi hal itu tidak wajib dilakukan.[2]

Bagi umat Islam, al-Hadis adalah merupakan rujukan kedua selepas kitab suci al-Quran. Hadis adalah merupakan perkara yang disabdakan atau dilakukan atau diperakui oleh baginda Rasul Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam.  

Pengajaran yang terdapat dari dua sumber yang mulia ini adalah merupakan perundangan dan panduan yang menjadi pegangan umat Islam.

Dalam sekian banyak riwayat hadis Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam, tidak kurang pernyataan mengenai kesihatan, yang berhubung langsung dengan kebersihan.

Baginda Rasul Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam begitu dikenali sebagai pengamal cara hidup sihat, bukan hanya dalam aspek kerohanian bahkan juga termasuk aspek fizikal.

Cara hidup baginda yang bersederhana dan berdisiplin banyak memberi manfaat dalam kesihatan baginda bagi terus sihat dan cergas dalam melaksanakan peranan sebagai nabi dan rasul.

Pada zaman moden ini banyak kajian saintifik yang dikaitkan dengan amalan hidup beragama ternyata efektif dalam penjagaan kesihatan kini. Apatah lagi pada ketika dunia berada pada era pandemik, terbukti apa yang telah dipesankan lebih dulu oleh Nabi Muhammad Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam mengelak dan merawat ternyata ada benarnya.  Dalam sebuah hadis baginda telah bersabda:

إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ بِهِ بِأَرْضٍ فَلاَ تَقْدَمُوا عَلَيْهِ وَإِذَا وَقَعَ بِأَرْضٍ وَأَنْتُمْ بِهَا فَلاَ تَخْرُجُوا فِرَارًا مِنْهُ

Maksudnya: Apabila kamu mendengarnya (wabak) di sesuatu tempat, maka janganlah kamu pergi ke situ. Dan apabila ia berlaku di tempat kamu, maka janganlah kamu keluar lari daripadanya.” (Hadis riwayat Imam Muslim).[3]

Dalam ajaran agama Islam banyak menekankan setiap pekerjaan khusunya yang terkait dengan ibadat lazim dimulakan dengan bersuci atau membersihkan diri. Sering ditekankan kaedah bersuci yang betul, kekerapan bersugi, pengambilan air wudhu yang sempurna dan larangan makan atau minum pada barang yang tertentu telah mengiyakan pesan-pesan Nabi Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam sebelum ini.

Pada pendidikan peringkat awal lagi terutamanya dalam ilmu fiqh, kita akan menemui bab berkaitan Taharah, iaitu bersuci atau kesucian. Dalam bab ini, Islam mensyariatkan wuduk sebelum menunaikan solat lima waktu dan sebahagian ibadat lain. Begitu juga disyariatkan mandi dan bersugi untuk kebersihan diri.

Ini bermakna kebersihan dan kesucian diri ialah asas penting ke arah kesihatan jasmani. Malah, ia antara sifat utama orang bertaqwa dan layak mendapat mahabbah, iaitu kasih sayang Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala.

Firman Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala dalam surah al-Maidah ayat 6:

 

يَا اَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ آمَنُوْا اِذَا قُمْتُمْ اِلَى الصَّلاَةِ فَاغْسِلُوْا وُجُوْهَكمْ وَاَيْدِيَكُمْ اِلَى الْمَرَافِقِ وَامْسَحُوْا بِرُؤُوْسِكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ اِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ

Maksudnya: “Wahai orang-orang yang beriman, apabila kamu akan mendirikan solat maka basuhlah muka kamu dan tangan-tangan kamu hingga siku-siku kamu dan sapulah kepala kamu serta (basuhlah) kaki-kaki kamu sehingga ke kedua mata kaki”.

Begitu juga Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam telah bersabda:

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ لاَ يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ صَلاَةَ أَحَدِكُمْ إِذَا أَحْدَثَ حَتَّى يَتَوَضَّأَ ‏

Maksudnya: “Abu Hurairah Radiallahuanhu telah meriwayatkan dari Nabi Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam, baginda bersabda: Allah tidak menerima solat seseorang diantara kalian jika berhadas hingga ia berwudhu.” (Riwayat Imam al-Bukhari)[4]

Agama Islam menunjukkan keprihatinannya dalam hal kesihatan dengan memberikan panduan ke arah penjagaan kesihatan berterusan. Antaranya sabda Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wasallam:

الفطرة خمس، أو خمس من الفطرة‏:‏ الختان، والاستحداد، وتقليم الأظفار، ونتف الإبط، وقص الشارب‏‏

Maksudnya: “Lima amalan ini daripada fitrah, iaitu mencukur bulu di bahagian kemaluan, berkhatan, menggunting misai, mencabut bulu ketiak dan mengerat kuku.” 

(Riwayat Imam al-Bukhari dan Imam Muslim)

Begitu juga apabila menghadap hidangan makanan, Islam menganjurkan kita membersihkan tangan terlebih dahulu. Sebilangan manusia sering alpa kerana kesihatan yang memberikan nilai dalam hidupnya hingga tidak menghargai mahal nikmat itu, sekali gus tidak sedar ia sebahagian detik kehidupannya.
