Jibril a.s Came To Teach Us About Our Religion

                                                                       Hadith of Jibril (as)    

                                       It is reported on the authority of ‘Umar b. al-Khattab that he said:

“One day, while we were sitting with Rasulallah (s), a man appeared before us.  His garments were sparkling white; his hair the darkest black.  No signs of travel appeared on him.  None of us recognized him.  He went to the Prophet (s) and sat in front of him, placing his knees before [the Prophet’s] knees.  He also placed his hands upon the Prophet’s thighs, saying: ‘Muhammad, What is Islam?’                
Rasulallah, (s), replied, saying: ‘Islam is to testify that there is no deity save Allah and that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah; to establish regular prayer; to give regular alms; to fast Ramadan; and, to visit Allah’s House as a pilgrim, if you are able.’                
The stranger said, ‘You speak the truth.’                
‘Umar said: We were amazed that he would ask him [a question], then tell him he was truthful!                
The stranger said: ‘Muhammad, what is faith?’                
"Rasulallah replied, saying: ‘Faith is to believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day, and to believe in [the Divine] Power, its good and its ill.’                
The stranger said: ‘You speak the truth.’  Then, he said: ‘What is Ihsan?’                
Rasulallah replied, saying: ‘Ihsan is to serve Allah as though you see Him, but if you see Him not, then [to serve Him knowing] He sees you.'
The stranger said: ‘You speak the truth.’  Then, he said: ‘Can you inform me about the Hour?’
Rasulallah replied, saying: ‘The questioned knows no more about it then the questioner.’
The stranger said: ‘Then tell me of its signs.’
Rasulallah said: ‘[Among] its signs are that the slave woman shall give birth to her mistress, and that the poor, naked and barefoot, the herders of sheep, shall compete in raising tall buildings.’
The stranger tarried but a moment before departing.  The Prophet (s) said to me: ‘ ‘Umar, do you know who was the questioner?’  I replied that Allah and His Messenger knew better.
Rasulallah (s) said: ‘This is Jibril.  He came to teach you your religion.’”

Syarat2 berMAKSIAT????renung2knla~~~

      Suatu hari ada seorang lelaki yang menemui Ibrahim bin Adham. Dia berkata, “Wahai Aba Ishak! Selama ini aku gemar bermaksiat. Tolong berikan aku nasihat.”
Setelah mendengar perkataan tersebut Ibrahim berkata, “Jika kamu mahu menerima lima syarat dan mampu melaksanakannya, maka bolehlah kamu melakukan maksiat.”

     Lelaki itu dengan tidak sabar-sabar bertanya, “Apakah syarat-syarat itu, wahai Aba Ishak?”Ibrahim bin Adham berkata, “Syarat pertama, jika kamu bermaksiat kepada Allah, jangan memakan rezekinya.”Mendengar itu dia mengenyitkan kening seraya berkata, “Dari mana aku mahu makan? Bukankah semua yang ada di bumi ini rezeki Allah?”“Ya!” tegas Ibrahim bin Adham. “Kalau kamu sudah memahaminya, masih mampukah memakan rezekinya, sedangkan kamu selalu berkeinginan melanggar laranganNya?”

    “Yang kedua,” kata Ibrahim, “Kalau mahu bermaksiat, jangan tinggal di bumiNya!”
Syarat ini membuat lelaki itu terkejut setengah mati. Ibrahim kembali berkata kepadanya, “Wahai Abdullah, fikirkanlah, apakah kamu layak memakan rezekiNya dan tinggal di bumiNya, sedangkan kamu melanggar segala laranganNya?”
“Ya! Anda benar.” kata lelaki itu.

     Dia kemudian menanyakan syarat yang ketiga. Ibrahim menjawab, “Kalau kamu masih mahu bermaksiat, carilah tempat tersembunyi yang tidak dapat terlihat olehNya!”
Lelaki itu kembali terperanjat dan berkata, “Wahai Ibrahim, ini nasihat macam mana? Mana mungkin Allah tidak melihat kita?”

“Ya, kalau memang yakin demikian, apakah kamu masih berkeinginan melakukan maksiat?” kata Ibrahim

    Lelaki itu mengangguk dan meminta syarat yang keempat. Ibrahim melanjutkan, “Kalau malaikat maut datang hendak mencabut rohmu, katakanlah kepadanya; Ketepikan kematianku dulu. Aku masih mahu bertaubat dan melakukan amal soleh.”
Kemudian lelaki itu menggelengkan kepala dan segera tersedar, “Wahai Ibrahim, mana mungkin malaikat maut akan memenuhi permintaanku?” “Wahai Abdullah, kalau kamu sudah meyakini bahawa kamu tidak boleh menunda dan mengundurkan datangnya kematianmu, lalu bagaimana engkau boleh lari dari kemurkaan Allah?”

“Baiklah, apa syarat yang kelima?”

     Ibrahim pun menjawab, “Wahai Abdullah kalau malaikat Zabaniyah datang hendak mengiringmu ke api neraka di hari kiamat nanti, jangan engkau ikut bersamanya.”
Perkataan tersebut membuat lelaki itu insaf. Dia berkata, “Wahai Aba Ishak, sudah pasti malaikat itu tidak membiarkan aku menolak kehendaknya.”

     Dia tidak tahan lagi mendengar perkataan Ibrahim. Air matanya bercucuran. “Mulai saat ini aku bertaubat kepada Allah.” katanya sambil terisak-isak.

Allahu a’lam bisshawab.
