ThE MirAcLe Of Al-QuRaN..

"Life begins at 40.."

Biasa dengar kan ayat tu...

I thought it was just a saying, but it's not..

A few days ago, hubby read this; SINI, and he discovered this;

“Dan Kami wajibkan manusia berbuat baik kepada kedua ibu bapanya; ibunya telah mengandungnya dengan menanggung susah payah dan telah melahirkannya dengan menanggung susah payah. Sedang tempoh mengandungnya beserta dengan tempoh menceraikan susunya ialah dalam masa tiga puluh bulan. Setelah ia besar sampai ke peringkat dewasa yang sempurna kekuatannya dan sampai ke peringkat umur empat puluh tahun, berdoalah ia dengan berkata: “Wahai Tuhanku, ilhamkanlah daku supaya tetap bersyukur akan nikmatmu yang engkau kurniakan kepadaku dan kepada ibu bapaku, dan supaya aku tetap mengerjakan amal soleh yang Engkau redai; dan jadikanlah sifat-sifat kebaikan meresap masuk ke dalam jiwa zuriat keturunanku. Sesungguhnya aku bertaubat kepadamu, dan sesungguhnya aku dari orang-orang Islam (yang tunduk patuh kepadamu)” [Al-Ahqaaf 46: 15]

Nampak tak, kenapa Allah sebut umur 40 tahun, kenapa tidak 30 ke, 35 ke, or any other figure? Ada something dengan umur 40 tahun ni, and whoever came up with this saying;

"Life begins at 40...",

that person must have discovered something bout this age, even if he's not a Muslim or that he discovered it on his own or thru research., the thing is written in the Quran all along, since long time ago...

But, only a few days ago that we discovered this??

That make me questioned myself, I've been on this earth for 31 years and yet, have I read the entire meaning of what's written in the Quran...?

Sadly, the answer is NO...

Have you?

Perhaps, kalau di biarkan, sampai ajal datang menjemput pun, mungkin masih belum habis membaca semua maksud ayat2 dalam Al-Quran...

Kalau ditanya tentang khatam Quran, semua orang pernah khatam, 3 kali, 5 kali, 10 kali, tapi berapa kali kita cuba memahami ayat2 Allah ni?

Suddenly, I'm reminded of my own story, bout 10 years ago, one of my lecturer, he was a Chinese man, was telling us bout alcoholic drink proven fact, he said research has been done on alcoholic drink and it showed that alcoholic drink is good for our body, I couldn't quite recall what was the good thing, but I remember him expressing his dissatisfaction for some religion that didn't allow alcohol consumption.

mmmm.... die refer pada Islam la sebenarnye kot...

So, I sat quietly, being the only Muslim in the class, I felt a bit awkward.. and I did wonder;

'Kenapa ye Allah tak bagi kita minum arak, kalau dah terbukti arak tu bagus, kenapa Allah x cakap certain quantity je bole minum ke?'

Tapi Allah haramkan terus...

Back then, I didn't bother trying to find the answer out, I was in my zaman Jahiliyyah huhu..

Only recently that I discovered this ayat;

~~Mereka bertanya mengenai ARAK dan judi, katakanlah, "Di dalam ARAK dan judi ada dosa besar dan ada MANFAAT bagi manusia, tetapi dosanya jauh lebih besar daripada manfaatnya.."~~ Surah Al-Baqarah, ayat 219.

Subahanallah, it's written in the Quran, everything is in the Quran, you just have to read, read and read !! After more than 10 years baru jumpa jawapan nya, and the answer is always there, right there, all the time... but it's just me who never bother to read !!

So to all, baca lah Al-Quran dan fahamilah ia... you'll be surprised with what you'll discover...
