Redha...mencari erti redha..

Mencari erti redha...lidah cakap redha...tetapi hati haruslah dipastikan betul2 redha dalam erti kata sebenar..

Berkata kepada orang bahawa kita redha apabila ditimpa musibah adalah mudah, tetapi redha dengan sebenar-benarnya redha, tidaklah semudah mengucapkannya.

 Redha adalah apabila kita berserah 100% kepada Allah, mahu dicorakkan bagaimana nasib kita, tanpa kesal, tanpa bimbang dan ragu-ragu.

 Maka bebanan perasaan dan fikiran kita akan menjadi tenang kerana kita telah menyerahkan segalanya kepada Allah kerana yakin Allah memberikan yang terbaik buat hambaNya di samping berdoa untuk yang terbaik. 

1) Sifat redha adalah daripada sifat makrifah dan mahabbah kepada Allah s.w.t.
2) Pengertian redha ialah menerima dengan rasa senang dengan apa yang diberikan oleh Allah s.w.t. baik berupa peraturan ( hukum ) mahupun qada' atau sesuatu ketentuan daripada Allah s.w.t.
3) Redha terhadap Allah s.w.t terbahagi kepada dua :
  • Redha menerima peraturan ( hukum ) Allah s.w.t. yang dibebankan kepada manusia.
  • Redha menerima ketentuan Allah s.w.t. tentang nasib yang mengenai diri.

    Redha Menerima hukum Allah s.w.t. :

    Redha menerima hukum-hukum Allah s.w.t. adalah merupakan manifestasi daripada kesempurnaan iman, kemuliaan taqwa dan kepatuhan kepada Allah s.w.t. kerana menerima peraturan-peraturan itu dengan segala senang hati dan tidak merasa terpaksa atau dipaksa. 

    Merasa tunduk dan patuh dengan segala kelapangan dada bahkan dengan gembira dan senang menerima syariat yang digariskan oleh Allah s.w.t. dan Rasulnya adalah memancar dari mahabbah kerana cinta kepada Allah s.w.t. dan inilah tanda keimanan yang murni serta tulus ikhlas kepadaNya.

    Firman Allah s.w.t. yang bermaksud :

    " Tetapi tidak ! Demi Tuhanmu, mereka tidak dipandang beriman hingga mereka menjadikanmu ( Muhammad ) hakim dalam apa yang mereka perselisihkan di antara mereka, kemudian mereka tidak merasa sempit dalam hati mereka tentang apa yang engkau putuskan serta mereka menyerah dengan bersungguh - sungguh ". ( Surah An-Nisaa' : Ayat 65 )
    Dan firman Allah s.w.t yang bermaksud : 

    " Dan alangkah baiknya jika mereka redha dengan apa yang Allah dan Rasulnya berikan kepada mereka sambil mereka berkata : ' Cukuplah Allah bagi kami , Ia dan Rasulnya akan berikan pada kami kurnianya ,Sesungguhnya pada Allah kami menuju ".
    ( Surah At Taubah : Ayat 59 )

    Pada dasarnya segala perintah-perintah Allah s.w.t. baik yang wajib mahupun yang sunat , hendaklah dikerjakan dengan senang hati dan redha. Demikian juga dengan larangan-larangan Allah s.w.t. hendaklah dijauhi dengan lapang dada . 

    Itulah sifat redha dengan hukum-hukum Allah s.w.t. Redha itu bertentangan dengan sifat dan sikap orang-orang munafik atau kafir yang benci dan sempit dadanya menerima hukum-hukum Allah s.w.t.

    Firman Allah s.w.t. yang bermaksud :

    " Yang demikian itu kerana sesungguhnya mereka ( yang munafik ) berkata kepada orang-orang yang di benci terhadap apa-apa yang diturunkan oleh Allah s.w.t. 'Kami akan tuntut kamu dalam sebahagian urusan kamu ',Tetapi Allah mengetahui rahsia mereka ". ( Surah Muhammad : Ayat 26 )

    Andaikata mereka ikut beribadah, bersedekah atau mengerjakan sembahyang maka ibadah itu mereka melakukannya dengan tidak redha dan bersifat pura-pura. Demikianlah gambaran perbandingan antara hati yang penuh redha dan yang tidak redha menerima hukum Allah s.w.t. , yang mana hati yang redha itu adalah buah daripada kemurnian iman dan yang tidak redha itu adalah gejala nifaq.



    Redha Dengan Qada' :
     
    Redha dengan qada' iaitu merasa menerima ketentuan nasib yang telah ditentukan Allah s.w.t baik berupa nikmat mahupun berupa musibah ( malapetaka ). Didalam hadis diungkapkan bahawa di antara orang yang pertama memasuki syurga ialah mereka yang suka memuji Allah s.w.t. . iaitu mereka memuji Allah ( bertahmid ) baik dalam keadaan yang susah mahupun di dalam keadaan senang.
    Diberitakan Rasulullah s.a.w. apabila memperolehi kegembiraan Baginda berkata :

    " Segala puji bagi Allah yang dengan nikmatnya menjadi sempurnalah kebaikan ".

    Dan apabila kedatangan perkara yang tidak menyenangkan , Baginda mengucapkan : 

    " Segala puji bagi Allah atas segala perkara ".

    Perintah redha menerima ketentuan nasib daripada Allah s.w.t. dijelaskan didalam hadis Baginda yang lain yang bermaksud :

    " Dan jika sesuatu kesusahan mengenaimu janganlah engkau berkata : jika aku telah berbuat begini dan begitu, begini dan begitulah jadinya. Melainkan hendakalah kamu katakan : Allah telah mentaqdirkan dan apa yang ia suka , ia perbuat ! " Kerana sesungguhnya perkataan : andaikata... itu memberi peluang pada syaitan " . (Riwayat Muslim)
     
    Sikap redha dengan mengucapkan puji dan syukur kepada Allah s.w.t. Ketika mendapat kesenangan atau sesuatu yang tidak menyenangkan bersandar kepada dua pengertian :

    Pertama : Bertitik tolak dari pengertian bahawa sesungguhnya Allah s.w.t. memastikan terjadinya hal itu sebagai yang layak bagi Dirinya kerana bagi Dialah sebaik-baik Pencipta. Dialah Yang Maha Bijaksana atas segala sesuatu.

    Kedua : Bersandar kepada pengertian bahawa ketentuan dan pilihan Allah s.w.t. itulah yang paling baik , dibandingkan dengan pilihan dan kehendak peribadi yang berkaitan dengan diri sendiri.

    Sabda Rasulullah s.a.w. yang bermaksud :

    " Demi Allah yang jiwaku ditangannya !Tidaklah Allah memutuskan sesuatu ketentuan bagi seorang mukmin melainkan mengandungi kebaikan baginya. Dan tiadalah kebaikan itu kecuali bagi mukmin . Jika ia memperolehi kegembiraan dia berterima kasih bererti kebaikan baginya , dan jika ia ditimpa kesulitan dia
    bersabar bererti kebaikan baginya ".
    ( Riwayat Muslim )

How to Let Go of Past Hurts

Letting go of past hurts is not easy. Hurt has to run its course - so letting go too soon just won't work. Time is, as they say, a great healer. However some pain just lingers and eats away at people. Here are a few tips that may help:

Steps

  1. Use affirmations every day. Say I am happy to let the pain of the past go right now. Say this as many times as you can. Sing it and write it too.
  2. Be aware that past is gone and it cannot come back...not in this life anyway. So try a ritual. Write about what happened to you, and feel the pain as you do. Then tear what you wrote into tiny pieces. Then, using a safe container (and with an adult if young) burn the pieces. As they burn say out loud - be gone pain from the past.
 3. Remember that emotional pain is a perception. Try to change it in some way by creating a philosophy for yourself about why pain occurs and what we learn from it. Take what good may have come from the past and hold onto it

4. When you begin to think about what happened, force those thoughts away and create a nice image to think about - like a pretty flower, or a person you care about. Practice this often. In the end your mind will re-learn.

5. Always know that everyone is good enough and that you deserve to be happy. Say every night before sleep. I am good enough and I deserve to feel happy

 

How to Forgive

Zarpor.com has said that one of the thorniest and most difficult things we humans are ever called upon to do is to respond to evil with kindness, and to forgive the unforgivable. We love to read stories about people who have responded to hatred with love, but when that very thing is demanded of us personally, our default seems to be anger, angst (dread or anguish), depression, righteousness, hatred, etc. Yet study after study shows that one of the keys to longevity and good health is to develop a habit of gratitude and let go of past hurts.

Want to live a long, happy life? Forgive the unforgivable. It really is the kindest thing you can do for yourself. Your enemy may not deserve to be forgiven for all the pain and sadness and suffering purposefully inflicted on your life, but you deserve to be free of this evil. As Ann Landers often said, "hate is like an acid. It damages the vessel in which it is stored, and destroys the vessel on which it is poured."

Realize that the hate you feel toward your adversary does not harm him or her in the slightest. Chances are, your enemy has gone on with life and hasn't given you another thought. "Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for it to kill your enemy."[1]




Understand that the best revenge against your enemies is to live a successful and happy life. Want to get even with someone who tried to destroy you? Show them and show yourself (and the world) that the obstacles they tried to create were not significant enough to disable you and/or destroy you.







 
Realize that the second best revenge is to turn the evil into something good, to find the proverbial silver lining in the dark cloud. Think of your enemy as someone who has helped you to grow. Even though unfortunate things happen to us, the best thing we can do is take those opportunities as tests that will either destroy or strengthen us. If you've been through something, it didn't destroy you - take what you learned and become a better person because of it.

Make a list of the good things that emerged as a result of this awful experience. You've probably focused long enough on the negative parts of this experience. Look at the problem from a completely new angle; look at the positive side. The first item on that list may be long overdue because you have focused on the negative for so long. See if you can identify 10 positive outcomes of this experience.



Look for the helpers. Fred Rogers (Mr. Rogers) related that, as a little boy, he'd often become upset about major catastrophes in the news. His mother would tell him, "look for the helpers." In your own nightmarish experience, think back to the people who helped you. Think about their kindness and selflessness Practice what you have learned from them.

Was someone your "Good Samaritan"? In this biblical story, a traveler helps a poor soul who was beaten up on the road to Jericho and left for dead. Perhaps this isn't all about you. Perhaps your trial provided an opportunity for others to rise to an occasion to provide you with help and support.

Be compassionate with yourself. If you've ruminated over this problem for a long time, steering this boat into a new direction could take some time, too. As you try to make a new path out of the dark woods of this old hurt, you'll make mistakes. Forgive yourself. Be patient and kind to yourself. Extreme emotional pain has a profound effect on the body. Give yourself time to heal - physically and emotionally. Eat well. Rest. Focus on the natural beauty in the world. Give yourself permission to feel the emotions and process them. Don't bottle up the pain.


Learn that the Aramaic word for "forgive" means literally to "untie." The fastest way to free yourself from an enemy and all associated negativity is to forgive. Untie the bindings and loosen yourself from that person's ugliness. Your hatred has tied you to the person responsible for your pain. Your forgiveness enables you to start walking away from him or her and the pain. Forgiveness is for you and not the other party. Freeing yourself through forgiveness is like freeing yourself from chains of bondage or from prison.


  1. Learn how to balance trust with wisdom. It's a fact that not all of our fellow humans are trustworthy. Painful memories can serve to protect us from future hurts. As author Rose Sweet writes, "A lack of trust is sometimes simply recognizing another's limitations".[2]

    • Forgiveness is not acceptance of wrong behavior. If you must continue to interact with someone who has wronged you, who has offered a lame apology only to follow it up with more bad behavior, nothing requires you to trust such a person. This person isn't likely to ever be trustworthy -- you must keep a distance. While it's fruitless to torment yourself over this person's actions, you should not be his or her willing victim. Acknowledge; move on.
    • An offender who wants reconciliation must do his or her part: offer a sincere apology, promise not to repeat the offense (or similar ones), make amends, and give it time. If you don't see repentance, understand that according forgiveness to that person is a benefit to yourself, not to the offender.
    • Unless those who have harmed us have truly repented of whatever they have done, we need to use wisdom in avoiding repeating the hurt. This may require avoiding those who are unrepentant of the harm that they have inflicted upon us. It would be wise to balance forgiveness against the certain knowledge that evil exists, and some people enjoy harming others.
  2. 9
    Stop telling "the story." How many times this week did you tell "the story" about how badly you were hurt and how horribly you were wronged? How many times a day do you think about this hurt? It is a stake driven into the ground that keeps you from moving away from this hurt. Rather, forgive your enemy because it's the kindest thing you can do for your friends and family. Negativity is depressing - physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally.
  3. 10
    Tell "the story" from the other person's perspective. Actually imagine that you are the other person (the one who offended you) and use the word "I" when saying what that person would say. You, most likely, don't know exactly what s/he was thinking when this event unfolded but pretend that you do, and just go with the story that comes up in your head. Sit down with a friend, or maybe even the person you are trying to forgive, and tell the story as though you are that person. It is important to do this verbally and not just in your head. Realize in advance that this is not an easy exercise, but it holds great power. Your willingness to tell the story from the offender's perspective requires an effort at forgiveness. Also, realize that this is not a contradiction to the preceding paragraph since this perspective will change your story.
  4. 11
    Retrain your thinking. When your enemy and his or her evil actions come to mind, send him or her a blessing. Wish your enemy well. Hope the best for him or her. This has two effects. One, it neutralizes that acid of hate that destroys the vessel in which it is stored. The evil we wish for another seems to have a rebound effect. The same is true for the good that we wish for another. When you make yourself able to return blessing for hatred, you'll know that you're well on the path to wholeness. The first 15 - or 150 - times you try this, the "blessing" may feel contrived, empty, and even hypocritical but keep trying. Eventually, it will become a new habit and soon thereafter, the anger and pain that has burned in your heart will evaporate, like dew in the morning sun. This technique forces your mind to overcome the cognitive dissonance between hating someone and acting with compassion toward him or her. Since there is no way to take back the kind gesture to agree with your hatred, the only thing your mind can do is change your belief about the person to match. You will begin to say to yourself, "S/he is deserving of a blessing, and indeed, must need one very much."
  5. 12
    Maintain perspective: While the "evil" actions of your "enemy" are hurtful to you and your immediate surroundings, the rest of the world goes on unaware. Validate their meaning in your life, but never lose perspective that others are not involved and do not deserve anything to be taken out on them. Your enemy is someone else's beloved child, someone's employee, or a child's parent.
     

    • Keep the following quotes in mind if you're finding it hard to generate positive feelings for the person:

      • "To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you." - Lewis B. Smedes
      • "Those who are the hardest to love, need it the most."
      • "Follow peace with all men, and holiness," -Hebrews 12:14."
      • "As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons." -The Desiderata by Max Ehrmann
      • "Hating someone is drinking poison and expecting the other person to die from it."
      • "If we could read the secret history of our enemies we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility." Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
      • "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" - The Golden Rule
      • "Correct and courteous words accompanied by forgiveness are better than charity followed by insulting words." - The Qur'an 2:263
      • "Be kind, for all you meet, are fighting a great battle."- Philo
      • "Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness. But whoever loves his brother lives in the light, and there is nothing in him to make him stumble." 1 John 2:9,10-The Bible
      • "Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him." 1 John 3:15- The Bible
      • "The hatred you're carrying is a live coal in your heart - far more damaging to yourself than to them." Lawana Blackwell, The Dowry of Miss Lydia Clark, 1999.
      • "The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naive forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget."
      • "But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses." Mark 11:26.
      • "For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you" Matthew 6:14
    • Put your best mental energies (perhaps first thing in the morning) into visualizing the new life you want. See yourself - in the future - as free of this pain and suffering..
    • Sometimes it helps to think of how others have forgiven under incredible circumstances. Ask friends for support and examples to motivate you toward forgiveness.
    • Forgiveness is a choice. When you say, "I can't forgive that person," what you're really saying is, "I'm choosing not to forgive that person." If you say, "I can forgive", you'll find yourself forgiving soon.
    • Forgive him or her, don't tell them, that's the answer! Forgiveness is yours and only yours , to live without forgiveness is a life full if hurt.

      Warnings

      • Forgiveness is hard, but living with a grudge is even harder. Keeping grudges bottled up can be very dangerous, and can hurt people in ways you might have not imagined.
      • True forgiveness is unconditional and not predicated on any act or request from the offender. The type of forgiveness discussed here is intended to free you from the impotent rage, depression, and despair that nursing a grievance causes.

Beras,Nasi



Beras perang adalah beras yang tidak dikisar atau separuh dikisar, sejenis biji-bijian semula jadi lengkap. Ia mempunyai perisa sedikit berkacang, adalah lebih kenyal dan lebih berkhasiat daripada beras putih, dan menjadi tengik lebih cepat. Mana-mana beras, termasuk biji-bijian panjang, biji-bijian pendek, atau pulut, dapat dimakan sebagai nasi perang.

Di kebanyakan Asia, beras perang (Bahasa Cina: 糙米pinyin: cāomǐ; secara harfiahnya "beras kasar"; Korea: 현미; hyeonmi Bahasa Jepun: 玄米; genmai; Bahasa Thai: ข้าวกล้อง; Bahasa Vietnam: gạo lứt) dikaitkan dengan kemiskinan dan kekurangan waktu perang, dan pada masa lalu jarang dimakan kecuali oleh yang sakit, yang lebih tua dan sebagai rawatan untuk sembelit. Beras yang direndahkan secara tradisional ini kini adalah lebih mahal daripada beras putih, sebahagiannya oleh kerana bekalan yang agak bekurangan dan kesukaran penyimpanan dan angkutan.



Secara umumnya, beras padat dengan nutrien dan menyumbang lebih daripada 15 vitamin dan mineral. Ia adalah sumber yang sangat baik untuk karbohidrat kompleks, yang mana tersimpan di dalam otot dan digunakan untuk memberi tenaga kepada kita apabila memerlukan. Tidak seperti karbohidrat yang lain, berat mengandungi protein yang bermutu tinggi. Beras mengandungi kesemua lapan asid amino yang membantu dan mengekalkan tisu otot dan membuat enzim, antibodi dan hormon.


Asid amino terdiri daripada leucine, isoleucine, valine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanain, theronine, dan trytophan. Asid amino ini dianggap penting kerana badan manusia tidak boleh mengeluarkannya sendiri dan mesti diperolehi daripada sumber makanan. Kegagalan mendapatkan cukup lapan asid amino perlu boleh menyebabkan degradasi protein badan.

Dalam satu hidangan nasi putih, kandungan nutrisinya mungkin kurang daripada nasi perang. Sebagai contoh, kandungan zat besi mungkin separuh daripada beras perang. Kandungan proteinnya juga kurang berbanding nasi perang. Nasi perang menawarkan enam kali lebih banyak vitamin B1 (thiamine), tiga kali lebih banyak vitamin B2 (riboflavin), lima kali lebih banyak vitamin B9 (folat) jika dibandingkan dengan nasi putih. Daripada kebanyak segi nasi perang lebih baik daripada nasi putih. Nasi putih memiliki kanji yang lebih tinggi.

Terdapat juga nasi putih diperkaya dengan vitamin tambahan, tetapi tetap tidak menyamai nasi perang. Kanji di dalam beras adalah jenis rintangan tinggi iaitu ia akan dihadamkan di usus. Ini menggalakkan pertumbuhan bakteria baik dan menjaga kesihatan usus.


Bolehkah makan nasi dalam membentuk badan?
Boleh, selagi mana dalam keperluan kalori badan. Nasi berlebihan mungkin akan disimpan, tetapi jika tidak berlebihan, kenapa badan perlu simpan?

Bagaimana dengan roti? Elok ke ganti nasi dengan roti?
Kenyang ke makan roti 2 keping? Kebanyakan yang makan roti akan cenderung untuk makan lebih. Roti putih 2 keping dah hampir seperti 1 hidangan nasi. Lebih kenyang makan nasi berbanding roti 2 keping. Anggaran roti serat pula, sekitar 2 kali kurang daripada roti putih. 4 keping hampir 1 hidangan nasi putih.

Angaran Nutrisi 1 hidangan
1 cawan Nasi putih 29g karbohidrat
1 cawan Nasi perang 16g karbohidrat
1 cawan Nasi Poni 25g karbohidrat
1 cawan Nasi Basmathi 27g karbohidrat
2 keping Roti putih 23g karbohidrat
2 keping Roti serat 11g karbohidrat
1 keping Rice Cake 7g karbohidrat

(cawan dalam anggaran di atas adalah cawan kecil, jadi mungkin tidak menepati kebanyakan hidangan di Malaysia, di Malaysia saiz hidangan mungkin lebih, 1 hidangan nasi putih boleh mencecah 37g karbohidrat, perbezaan hampir 10g karbohidrat. Roti juga mengikut jenama, mungkin jumlah karbohidrat antara roti putih dan roti serat tidak banyak berbeza)

Nota: Dalam diet, perlu bijak memilih makanan. Jangan terpengaruh dengan ideologi diet atkin, diet nasi dan sebagainya. Ikutlah piramid makanan.

Tiada siapa terkecuali ujian sakaratulmaut

Daripada Anas ra katanya, “Tatkala Nabi SAW sedang sakit tenat, Fatimah ra berkata: “Alangkah menderitanya ayahku.” (pada masa itu Nabi Muhammad SAW mendengar) lalu Baginda bersabda: “Ayah tidak menempuh kesusahan lagi selepas hari ini.”

Kemudian selepas wafat Rasulullah SAW Fatimah ra berkata: “Oh ayah” dia sudah menyahut panggilan Tuhannya, “Oh ayah! Syurga Firdauslah tempatnya”, “Oh ayah! Kepada Jibril kami khabarkan.” Apabila Rasulullah SAW telah dimakamkan Fatimah ra berkata: “Wahai Anas, adakah senang hati kamu menimbus tanah ke atas Rasulullah SAW?”
Islam menggariskan beberapa panduan tertentu bagi umat yang menghadapi musibah kehilangan orang tersayang.


Boleh lahirkan kesedihan

Islam membenarkan umatnya melahirkan kesedihan terhadap jenazah tanpa jeritan atau ratapan seperti agama lain. Ini kerana tindakan itu seolah-olah menunjukkan rasa tiada reda dengan takdir yang ditetapkan Allah.

Hadis ini menggambarkan kesabaran seorang anak menghadap ayah tercinta yang sedang sakit tenat dan meninggal.

Kata-katanya Saidatina Fatimah ra selepas Rasulullah dikebumikan adalah untuk menggambarkan rasa dukacitanya bukannya membantah ketentuan Allah.
Menurut huraian ulama, Allah menjadikan nabi-nabi dan wali-Nya menderita sukar menghadapi sakaratul maut hanyalah untuk menambahkan ketinggian darjat mereka. Bagaimanapun, bagi orang Islam yang lain mengalami kesukaran sakaratulmaut adalah sebagai kaffarah (penghapus dosa) daripada kesalahan yang mereka lakukan.

 Diuji hadapi sakaratulmaut

Walaupun Nabi Muhammad kekasih Allah, Baginda juga diuji ketika menghadapi sakaratulmaut untuk meningkatkan darjatnya.

Malah, isteri tercinta Baginda, Aisyah turut menggambarkan kesakitan yang dihadapi Rasulullah ketika menghadapi kematian dengan katanya: “Aku melihat Nabi SAW ketika Baginda hampir wafat dan di sisinya sebuah bijana berisi air, dan Baginda memasukkan tangannya ke dalam bijana itu lalu menyapu mukanya, sesudah itu Baginda berdoa: "Ya Tuhanku! Berilah aku pertolongan terhadap penderitaan-penderitaan maut atau sakaratulmaut (yang sedang aku hadapi)".

Sakaratulmaut adalah suatu penderitaan yang dialami oleh roh dengan keadaan yang tertentu pada masa roh hendak meninggalkan jasad seseorang.

Ia akan tetap ditempuh oleh setiap manusia dengan pelbagai cara sama ada yang berat dan sukar atau yang mudah dan senang. Berdasarkan hadis ini suatu kesimpulan dapat dibuat bahawa anggapan mengenai beratnya sakaratulmaut itu menandakan kemurkaan Tuhan dan ringannya pula menandakan keredaan Tuhan adalah tidak benar.

Malah, ia sebenarnya bergantung pada kedudukan seseorang itu di sisi Allah SWT, bukan berdasarkan penilaian mata kasar dan mata hati manusia semata-mata.

Pentingnya mengingati dan menginsafi kematian ini sehinggakan perbuatan mengiringi jenazah termasuk enam daripada kewajipan orang Islam terhadap orang Islam lain seperti yang digambarkan dalam hadis daripada Abu Hurairah ra bahawasanya Rasulullah SAW bersabda: “Kewajipan orang Islam kepada orang Islam yang lain ada lima perkara menjawab salam, melawat orang sakit, mengiringi jenazah, menghadiri jemputan dan mendoakan orang bersin”. - Koleksi hadis JAKIM
