Nasihat Rasulullah

“Daripada Zaid bin Thabit ra, Baginda Rasulullah SAW telah bersabda: Allah akan memberi rahmat kepada sesiapa yang mendengar perkataanku hinggalah ia menyampaikannya kepada orang lain. Ada tiga perkara yang tidak akan mengkhianati hati seorang muslim: beramal dengan ikhlas kerana Allah, nasihat kepada imam dan ketua-ketua orang Islam, dan melazimi jemaah mereka itu; sesungguhnya doa mereka itu luas dan meliputi.Sesiapa yang menjadikan dunia itu niatnya, maka Allah jadikan fakir dihadapannya, dan ditabur-taburkan hajatnya dan hartanya; ia tidak akan mendapatinya kecuali apa yang telah dituliskan. Dan sesiapa yang menjadikan akhirat itu niatnya, maka Allah jadikan kaya di dalam hatinya, dan mencukupkan hajatnya, dan dunia datang tunduk kepadanya – Riwayat Ibnu Majah
Huraian Hadis

Allah akan memberi rahmatNya kepada sesiapa yang mendengar dan menyampaikan sabda Rasulullah SAW; dan jika ia mengamalkannya dan menjadi seorang muslim yang baik, maka hatinya akan bersih dan tidak dikotori oleh penyakit-penyakit hati yang merosakkan.

‘Ikhlas beramal kerana Allah’, bererti segala amalan yang diamalkan hendaklah bertujuan untuk beribadah kerana Allah semata-mata, dan menuntut keredaanNya; bukannya hendak menunjuk-nunjuk dan riak, kerana semuanya itu akan menjadi sia-sia.

‘Nasihat kepada imam orang Islam’, bererti memberi nasihat dan pandangan kepada ketua atau pemerintah yang memikul tugas menjaga kepentingan maslahat masyarakat Islam; disedarkan mereka tatkala terlalai ketika menjalankan tugas, dan sama-sama berusaha dan berkerjasama menimbulkan kemesraan di antara ahli masyarakat.

‘Melazimi jemaah orang-orang Islam’, iaitu tidak mengasingkan diri dengan ahli masyarakat; dan jemaah Islam yang dikehendaki itu adalah jemaah kumpulan orang-orang Islam yang baik, dan bukannya jemaah kumpulan untuk melakukan perkara-perkara mungkar, maksiat, dan kejahatan, yang seharusnya dijauhi.

Kumpulan baik-baik yang dimaksudkan adalah kumpulan yang sentiasa berkerjasama dan tolong-menolong menjaga kebajikan dan kepentingan maslahat masyarakat Islam setempat, di samping jemaah untuk melakukan amal ibadah, seperti solat tarawih berjemaah, majlis tahlil kerana pelajaran, dan sebagainya.

‘Sesiapa yang menjadikan dunia ini niatnya’ bermaksud tujuan hidupnya adalah semata-mata mencari dunia, sehingga terlupa akan kewajipan akhiratnya. Jika seseorang itu sibuk dengan mencari kesenangan dunia semata-mata, Allah akan menjadikan perasaan hatinya sentiasa keluh-kesah; takut seolah-olah fakir mengancamnya pada bila-bila masa sahaja.

Allah akan jadikan segala hajat dan kehendaknya bertaburan; tidak dapat dikumpulkan, sehingga berkeadaan seperti terkejar ke sana ke mari dalam suasana yang tidak menentu; seolah-olah tidak cukup masa dan tenaga. Namun demikin, ia tetap tidak akan dapat mengisi segala hajatnya itu, selain dari apa yang telah ditetapkan Allah SWT.

‘Sesiapa yang menjadikan akhirat ini niatnya’, iaitu menjadikan ahirat itu tujuan bagi kehidupannya, maka Allah akan jadikan perasaan hatinya kaya, tenang, bahagia, dan tiada keluh-kesah. Ia sentiasa merasa cukup, dan tidak pernah terasa bertaburan hajat-hajatnya; dunia yang tidak dikejar-kejar itu akan datang, tunduk menurut apa yang telah diusahakan tanpa dipengaruhi sifat tamak dan tidak pernah puas.

Keadaannya tidak dikuasai oleh harta dan kemegahan, sehingga menyebabkannya lalai dan lupa untuk kehidupan akhiratnya; bahkan dunia dijadikan sebagai alat untuk melaksanakan tujuan-tujuan akhirat, dan bukannya menyekat dan menyusahkan. Dengan yang demikian, kehidupannya pasti berada di dalam kebahagiaan, tenang, tenteram, dan tiada keluh-kesah.

Wallahu’alam

 

 

 

 

 

One day with journalist

Journalists gather their information in a variety of ways, including tips, press releases, and witnessing events. They perform research through interviews, public records, and other sources. The information-gathering part of the job is sometimes called “reporting” as distinct from the production part of the job, such as writing articles. Journalists generally split their time between working in a newsroom and going out to witness events or interview people.

 

Most journalists working for major news media outlets are assigned an area to focus on, called a beat or patch. They are encouraged to cultivate sources to improve their information gathering.

During I followed his to cover the news at the location, he do the exploration and taked a picture with photographer and interview the sources. After finished cover it, we go back to the office and he discussed with their boss editor about what the suitable anger, means that to write at the first paragraph for introduction. After that, write the story about half and hours. After finished it, wait for the checking from boss, if not completely, he will called to complete it. And then, the news passed to the assistant editor for the checking after correction.
