:: Kehebatan "Istighfar" ::

Salam dearest akhawat fillah..
Moga kisah ni banyak manfaat untuk amal2 kita..
dan menjadi amal berharga untuk study kita, insyaAllah ♥


Kisah ni adalah mengenai Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal (seorang tokoh hadith dan ilmuwan fiqh terkenal). Beliau juga adalah pengasas mazhab Hanbali. Antara gelaran beliau ialah "Sheikh ul-Islam" dan "Imam kpd Ahl as-Sunnah."

Pada suatu hari (ketika usia Imam Ahmad ni sudah pun agak tua), beliau pergi ke satu pekan. Selepas solat isya' berjemaah di masjid, Imam Ahmad pun berniat nak bermalam di masjid tu sebab beliau tak ada kenalan di pekan itu. Imam Ahmad ni pun tak ada lah nak umum kat semua orang sebagai Imam Ahmad (yang dikenali ramai) sebab beliau ni tawadhu' dan tak nak 'diperbesar2kan'. Tapi, Imam Ahmad tak dibenarkan bermalam di masjid oleh pak guard masjid tu.

Dekat2 dengan masjid tu, ada Kedai Roti; dan penjual roti tu nampak seorang tua (Imam Ahmad la tu) telah 'diheret' keluar oleh si pak guard masjid. Penjual roti ni kesian tengok pakcik tua tu, agaknya tak ada tempat nak tidur. Jadi dia pun offer kat pakcik ni untuk bermalam kat rumah dia.

Imam Ahmad pun tumpanglah di rumah si bakery tu. Semasa di rumah si bakery, Imam Ahmad dapat tengok pemprosesan roti2 ni sebelum dijual. apa yang menarik ialah, si bakery ni sentiasa dan berulang2 kali ber'istighfar' (mohon keampunan pada Allah) masa tengah buat roti ni. Imam Ahmad pun tanya pada si bakery kalau2 amalan dia (ber'istighfar' tu) ada effect pada hidup dia.

Si bakery ni cakap pada Imam Ahmad yang Allah telah mengabulkan semua permintaan (doa) dia, kecuali satu (yang belum dia dapat). Imam Ahmad pun tanya, "apa keinginanmu yang belum kau dapat?"



Si bakery tu jawab, "iaitu kemuliaan untuk bertemu dengan Al-Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal."

Lalu Imam Ahmad pun membalas, "Allah bukan saja telah mendengar doa mu, malah Allah telah membawa dia (Imam Ahmad) ke pintu rumahmu."



Subhanallah :) ♥

Power of “Istighfar” (A moving story)

(from website: http://www.iqrasense.com/forgiveness/power-of-istighfar-a-moving-story.html).

[Summarized from Al Jumuah magazine, vol 19, issue 7]


This story is a reminder of the power of saying Istighfar (seeking forgiveness) frequently. Let’s remember that the prophet used to say Istighfar frequently during the day. Tafseer Al-Qurtubi states:

A man complained to Al-Hasan about a drought, and he said to him: “Pray to Allah for forgiveness.”
Another man complained to him of poverty and he said to him: “Pray to Allah to forgive you.”
Another man said to him: “Pray to Allah to bless me with a child.” He said: “Pray to Allah for forgiveness.”
Another complained to him that his garden was dry. He said to him: “Pray to Allah for forgiveness.”
He was asked about it and he said: “This is not my personal opinion, for Allah says in Surah Nooh (interpretation of the meaning): ‘Ask forgiveness from your Lord, verily, He is Oft Forgiving; He will send rain to you in abundance. And give you increase in wealth and children, and bestow on you gardens and bestow on you rivers.” Tafseer Al-Qurtubi (18/301-302)


One of the narrators of a Hadith was asked about the manner in which forgiveness is to be sought, to which he answered: "The Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) used to say: ‘Astaghfirullah! Astaghfirullah! (I beseech Allah for forgiveness, I beseech Allah for forgiveness)’.” [Sahih Muslim].
