Mengenal Siti Khodijah



Setelah menerima wahyu pertama di Gua Hira, Rasulullah ﷺ kembali ke rumah menemui istrinya, Khadijah, dalam keadaan ketakutan. Beliau duduk di sisi istrinya lalu semakin merapat padanya. Sebagaimana disebutkan dalam satu riwayat:
“Aku duduk di sisinya kemudian bersandar padanya.”
.
Ketika Rasulullah ﷺ menceritakan semua yang ia lihat kepada istrinya, termasuk bahwa ia diangkat menjadi seorang utusan Allah, Khadijah radhiallahu ‘anha  memberikan tanggapan yang luar biasa. Dengan yakin ia menanggapi:
“Berbahagialah wahai putra pamanku dan teguhlah engkau. Demi Dzat yang jiwa Khadijah berada di tangan-Nya! Sungguh aku berharap engkau menjadi nabinya umat ini.” (Ibnu Hisyam dalam as-Sirah an-Nabawiyah, 1/236).
.
Perkataan indah yang terucap di saat sang suami merasa takut dan sedih. Perkataan yang mampu mengokohkannya di tengah bimbang dan ragu. Ucapan ini mengindikasikan Khadijah tahu akan ada seorang rasul yang diutus. Dan orang yang ia harapkan untuk menjadi rasul itu adalah suaminya sendiri. Dengan demikian, keimanan Khadijah bukan semata keimanan fanatik keluarga, tapi sesuatu yang dibangun dengan ilmu.
.
“Sungguh aku melihat suatu cahaya. Aku mendengar suara. Aku takut kalau aku gila.” Khadijah menjawab, “Tidak mungkin Allah akan membuatmu demikian wahai putra Abdullah.” Kemudian Khadijah menemui Waraqah bin Naufal. Ia ceritakan keadaan tersebut padanya. “Jika benar, maka itu adalah Namus seperti Namusnya Musa. Sekiranya saat dia diutus dan aku masih hidup, aku akan melindunginya, menolongnya, dan beriman kepadanya,” kata Waraqah. (HR. Ahmad 2846).
.
Betapa luar biasanya hikmah Allah ﷻ memilihkan Khadijah radhiallahu ‘anha untuk Nabi Muhammad ﷺ. Istri yang hidup bersamanya saat wahyu pertama tiba. Istri yang mampu memberikan ketenangan saat seorang suami yang berjiwa tegar pun merasa kebingungan. Dia tetap tenang dan memberikan ketenangan.
.
Kemudian, ia yang pertama membenarkan risalah kerasulannya saat orang-orang mendustakannya. Ia tetap bersama suaminya di tengah tekanan kaumnya. Ia menolong dan membelanya. Semoga Allah meridhaimu wahai ibunda kami, Ummul Mukminin Khadijah binti Khuwailid

The Law of Eating Food for the Rest of Others in Islam

On the previous occasion, we have briefly reviewed some of the ways of eating the Prophet, one of which is to spend the remaining food on a plate or tray where you eat. Spending the rest of the food actually has its own philosophy of appreciating the blessings given by Allah SWT. Islam forbids his people from wasting the sustenance obtained. And therefore, as Muslims we must respect every drop of water and every seed of food that is available by not wasting the food or drink and using it for a positive purpose. The rewards that we give to food or drink are actually a form of our gratitude for God's favor. Therefore in one of the narrations of the Prophet sallallaahu ahu alaihi wasallam always licked the leftover food stuck to the fingers of his hand. From Jabir bin ‘Abdillah he said that the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wasallam said, "Don't sweep his hand with a napkin before he licks his finger. Because he doesn't know which food brings blessings. "(Narrated by M...

The Law of Marriage Different from Islam and Non-Muslims

Marriage is something that is recommended in Islam. The law of marriage is sunnah muakkad which is the preferred sunnah. Getting married is a complementary religion and is a form of worship to Allah Ta'ala. Getting married also has many virtues in Islam. In addition to producing offspring, marriage also avoids immoral acts and makes the heart feel more peaceful. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says in the Qur'an which means: "And among His signs of authority is He created for you wives of your own kind, so that you will tend and feel secure to him, and He will make you love and affection. Verily in that there are indeed signs for those who think. "(Surat ar. Ruum: 21). Because marriage is something sacred, of course it should not be done carelessly. Moreover, for Muslims, marriage must fulfill religious principles and shari'a. In general there are 4 factors that need to be considered in finding a mate. Among them are religion, nasab, wealth and face. Well, what is t...

The Mandatory Bathing Method for the Right Woman According to Islam

In Islamic teachings, to carry out worship which is part of the pillars of Islam and its nature habluminnaullah (dealing directly with Allah, in the form of rituals) it is obligatory to be pure and clean. Not just clean and holy when carrying out ritual worship, more than that Islamic teachings do indeed order the people to always keep themselves clean.

God does not want to trouble you, but He wants to cleanse you and perfect His blessings for you, so that you will be grateful. "(QS: Al-Maidah: 6) Prohibiti...
