Ibadah Jama'i Dilakukan Bersama Pemerintah

Ibadah yang sifatnya Jama'i (secara bersamaan oleh orang banyak) dilakukan bersama pemerintah. Dalam perkara ibadah jama’i seperti puasa, haji, shalat Id, lebaran, dst. pendapat-pendapat pribadi tidak teranggap dalam syariat. Ketentuan seperti inilah yang layak bagi syariat yang samahah ini yang salah satu tujuannya adalah persatuan ummat dan bersatunya mereka dalam satu barisan. Jika pemerintah melakukan kesalahan dalam perkara ini, kita tetap melakukannya bersama pemerintah, namun dosanya ditanggung pemerintah. 

Nabi Shallallahu'alaihi Wasallam bersabda: 

 يُصَلُّونَ لَكُمْ فَإِنْ أَصَابُوا فَلَكُمْ وَإِنْ أخطؤوا فَلَكُمْ وَعَلَيْهِمْ 

“Shalatlah kalian bersama imam, jika shalat imam itu benar, kalian mendapat pahala. Jika shalat imam itu salah, kalian tetap mendapat pahala dan sang imam yang menanggung kesalahnnya” (HR. Bukhari no.662) 

Beliau Shallallahu’alaihi Wasallam juga bersabda:

 اسمعوا وأطيعوا فإنما عليكم ما حملتم وعليهم ما حملوا 

“Dengar dan taatlah (kepada penguasa). 

Karena yang jadi tanggungan kalian adalah yang wajib bagi kalian, dan yang jadi tanggungan mereka ada yang wajib bagi mereka” (HR. Muslim 1846) Dari: Muslim.Or.Id

XD yah, THIS IS BUSINESS

More than a soap bubble

This is actually no more than a soap bubble as it explodes out of a sugar dispenser. For the Swiss photographer Fabian Oefner timing is crucial, as is the use of special lighting techniques to capture the bubble's rainbow of colours.

Happy 94th birthday Nelson Mandela :)

Today, UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador Nelson Mandela celebrates his 94th birthday. People around the world are celebrating “Nelson Mandela Day” by dedicating 67 minutes of their time to help others, in honor of the 67 years that “Madiba” dedicated to fighting against apartheid.

27 of these years were spent as a political prisoner, notably on Robben Island, the island penitentiary where the South African government sent its most serious political opponents for life. Symbolizing the triumph of democracy over racism and oppression, Robben Island is today a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Following his release in 1990, Mr. Mandela made a historic appeal to UNESCO to resolve “frightening” educational crisis that afflicted apartheid victims, as the basis for a new non-racial South African democracy.

For his unfailing commitment to democracy, equality, dignity and learning, he won the 1992 UNESCO-Félix Houphouët-Boigny Peace Prize, many of whose past laureates have gone on to win the Nobel Prize for Peace. 40 years after withdrawing from UNESCO for interfering with its “racial problems”, South Africa rejoined under Mr. Mandela’s leadership in 1994, almost immediately after he helped to abolish apartheid.

Let us honor this most generous of men and act on the values that he championed.

Happy 94th birthday Nelson Mandela :) thank you for always wearing Indonesian Batik..

"Never stop to dream. Does it a matter to have a dream? No....Changes in this world are made controversially. Well, people call your dream weird? Ya! Cause people don't like change! They live and love comfort zone. Any type of change about to make out of comfort. Then, convince your self about your dream, believe, and make it happen. You have to work real hard, consistent, and smart. You know, even stranger try to make you give up. You have to survive "
