Teka-teki donia


بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِي

Kita jangan menyangka bahawa Allah lemah menolong hambaNya. Teka-teki hidup ini amat banyak, orang berakal mati kelaparan, orang bodoh dapat mengumpulkan harta; pembela kebenaran terpencil di dalam hidup; penipu menjadi kaya-raya. Orang kafir pula mempunyai harta benda berbidang-bidang tanah. Orang Islam jadi penyapu jalan. Selidiki dahulu rahsia semua, baru ambil keputusan!


Sebelum ada kekayaan, orang pandai menggunakan wang yang belum ada dalam khayal. Setelah ada kekayaan, hilanglah akal; kemana gerangan dipergunakan?

A Contented Life

Let the days pass as they will
Be content with Allah’s will.
Do not regret what this day’s cast,
For this world’s pains for sure won’t last.
Be a man against fears strong,
Be kind and loyal, all life long.
If in folk’s eyes your faults abound,
And you wish that they be gowned:
Then shelter seek beneath kind acts,
For kindness well all blame retracts.
From enemies hide your weakness
For gloating foes do bring distress.
From misers never seek favor:
In fire there is no water.
Patience won’t reduce income,
Nor fretfulness increase the sum.
Neither pain nor joy shall last,
Nor poverty, nor riches vast.
But if your heart is satisfied
Then you do own the whole world wide.
A man on whom his fate alights
No depths shall save, nor any heights.
Allah’s earth is wide, but know,
That destiny makes it narrow.
Face each day on even keel.
There’s no balm from death can heal.

[Imam al-Shafi`i]
