LET THIS OLD MAN ASLEEP.....

               LET TAKE A GLIMPSE OF THIS OLD MAN.....

THIS ,  OLD , FATIGUE, TIRED AND WEARY MAN

GET A GLIMPSE OF THIS OLD MAN ... DID YOU NOTICE ANYTHING ?                                  Did you only  see  a sleeping old man ?  NOW please take a longer glance.  Can't you see his tired and wearied countenance.? Look deeper... There are  many hidden  fears  in his closed eyes. Can you hear his soft screaming soul beneath his chest? Fears of being  awake . Scare him more than  death itself .Death is near. He knew that his time is near.And he is afraid of thinking about it. He has many dreams and he wanted  to leave behind him a share of his beauty dreams. There is something fine in keeping to himself these treasure of beauty all his life and giving them to the world disdainfully when he has no further use for them.

LET HIM SLEEP.... FOR. He is tired. Tired for doing wrongs. He failed more than success.Done wrongs more  than rights, but sadly to regret, he still  believed  that he had done it all right.

LET HIM SLEEP... FOR  I,  personally knew this old man.... In his sleeps, he has no dream. He sleep like a  dead-log .In his sleep, he sink in deep .emptiness.  Hollow  and dark. No fear , no dream. BUT dreams rushed  into him  when he is awake.  It rushed into him like a flows of the falling rapid. hard and sharp..These dreams seem real, its appear  as if it is in  reality,  He felt real.It touched  him real. And that scared him most.It drove him crazy.  He almost can't stand it. So let him sleep.

LET HIM SLEEP...FOR in his awaking, in all his life,  he had forgone many things  which were  precious in his life. All gone in his quest for truth,  he had abandoned and neglected those around him when they needed him most, in his awaking, he had done millions of mistakes.  Guilty conscious engulfed him. In his sleep,.he found solace . In his sleep,he felt  his soul swimming in ineffable happiness.He savor every minutes of his sleep.So let him sleep....


LET HIM SLEEP... FOR he is afraid of death.  Although sleeping is partially death, he has confident that his chance of alive is greater.Only he is afraid  of being awake
 .In his younger years, he was once asked 

 " Aren't you afraid of death ?"

 " Yes " was his answer.  " But I fought  and pushed it hard by forgetting  it. " .  As always in his mind,  " one should  live always in view of ones death. "
 To his mind, the  only way to live is to forget that you're going to die. Death is scary. The fear of it should never influence a single action of the wise man. " - that was his reasoning at that time.
AND NOW..think of it, frighten him more, for that kind of philosophy  actually had distance him from the reality of existence. Death is unimportant, yes , no doubt about it,  for in reality it doesn't exist.Death is actually a 'transfer' or ' moving to other ' stage' of human existence. He knew by now that he should live in   ' accepting '   not  by  " forgetting' it. Then every single actions of his will be  under the influence of this fact. Now he realized and understood  about  his  body and soul.
Well, He knew that he will die struggling for breath and he will be horribly afraid. He also knew that he will not be able to keep himself from regretting bitterly the life that has brought him to such a pass but he disown that regret. He's now weak, old, diseased, poor , dying, hold still his soul in his hands and he tried no to regret nothing.....


LET THIS OLD MAN SLEEP.....He needs help. He is afraid. Maybe with  your forgiveness and prayers  will give  him, in his  last sleep . a dream, a beautiful dream  that might  illusory him,  even for a quick glimpse which  will give him a sensation   thrill of tranquility  that will shot through his heart although it will  only lasted an instant.

DONT DISTURB...LET THIS OLD MAN  ASLEEP

 

MASJID JAMI' PASAR USANG, AIR TIRIS, KAMPAR, - A TOUR

  A  TOUR -  AN  OPPORTUNITY   TO   REVISIT    MASJID JAMI'
                                                                         PASAR USANG , AIR TIRIS, KAMPAR
                                                                          8th,  JUNE 2011

MASJID JAMI AIR TIRIS- PASAR USANG

Everything was destined  to happen. When an opportunity strike  onto you, you might as well grab it and that what i have done. On the 8th of June, that morning after my morning tea at nearby  ' warong '  a small coffee stall  that was erected for the '  Istiqma',  Ustaz Kamal  asked me whether i would like to go for a ' sight-seeing ' around Air Tiris ?
Without hesitated,  i gave a  ' yes ' to the invitation. Going to  Air Tiris  is actually  doing a visit to a unique mosque in Riau. The  Masjid Jami' Pasar Usang or Masjid Jamek Air Tiris is only 54 km away from PekanBaru  town .


Actually, i had been to Air Tiris  twenty years ago. but i can't remember it clearly now. Many thing had changed. Pekanbaru is growing and changing. Even Air Tiris was blurred  in my memory.. Pasar Usang, a place that   used to be a small market place , situated in ' banjau' or ' dusun' Air Tiris..  Ustaz Abdul Rashid  Andika Doris, a local resident, was  willing to give us a  tourist's drive for free.


BRIEF NOTE ON MASJID PEKAN USANG, 
AIR TIRIS, KAMPAR. 

 This Jami' Masjid Pasar Usang, as its formerly known, is  architecturally similar  to the mosque of Masjid Kampung Laut  in Kelantan, Malaysia  and  of Great Demak Mosque that found in Demak, Central Jawa The Kg Laut Mosque is believed to be built in  1730's  whilst the  Demak Mosque was built in 1479. It was also believed that the two mosques  were built by the architect , who had learnt the art  from the architect of Masjid Agong of Demak. or perhaps it was probably modelled after the Majid Agong of Demak.Both  mosques have roof shaped in two- tier and very much resembled each other.The masjid Jami' Air Tiris has 3- tier roof and also look alike. This kind of model was typical of Javanese  architecture of that time.

MASJID JAMI' AIR TIRIS
built in early 1900

The Masjid Kampong Laut in Kelantan  had undergone  two big flood. The first that occurred  in 1926, which known as ' Bah Air Merah. '.The second flood happened in 1966 which severely damaged the building when  some portion of the mosque was swept away..The ground underneath  was washed away by the flood. The mosque of Air Tiris too  was hits by flood , but mysteriously escaped unharmed.The mosque is situated near the Kampar riverbank.In olden days, the main transportation was through river ways and thus for Pasar Usang, its was a weekly market  on Saturday that attracted nearby merchants to flocking  around Air Tiris village They have their schedule of rotation for ' Hari pasar' or in Malaysia nowadays known as      ' Pasar Hari '. On Monday and Tuesday, was  'Pasar hari'  for  Kuok and Salo villages , on  Wednesday was for Bangkinang and on Thursday was ' pasar Hari ' for Rumbio. Friday was a holy and worshiping day.They prepared for ' solatul Jumaat ' or Fridays' Prayer. Unfortunately Pasar Usang was burned  to- ground  by  the communist guerillas insurgence  in 1949 .Pasir Usang Market doesn't make a come back due to the opening  of land transportation hence the ' pasar Hari' was shifted inner inland  along the roadside of Riau - Sumbar road.As i personally observed, there are two strong traits of Air Tiris's residents.. One of it, they have the blood of merchanst and traders flowing in their veins and heart.. Another one was their strong inherent to Islam's teaching.They have famous saying that always sing on their lips    " Pepatah petitih  Adat, Adat  bersendi syarak, syarak bersendi kitabullah " literally meaning  'Customs  based maxims ,  Custom is based upon  religion's rules, the religion's rule is based upon  ' Allah's book ( Al- Quran ).

 MASJID AIR TIRIS OR MASJID PASAR USANG.

ME WITH OUR GOOD USTAZ ABD RASHID DADDI 
WITH PASAR USANG MOSQUE IN THE BACKGROUND.

The Air Tiris Jami' mosque was first inspired by Dt.Ongku Mudo Songkal, when he once strolling on  Pasar Sabtu, the weekly market.During the Dzuhur prayer, he was then realized, it was   difficult to  perform prayer since there was no masjid around .  The idea then was brought to the attention of Ninik Mamak XII,who later agreed to built a mosque.

The unique of this mosque are on the architectural design and the mystical stories associated to the building of it As for example, the huge main  pillar couldn't be lifted although were  pulled by almost whole village workers. This happened in the presence of the Mr. and Mrs' controleur'  who were  both not  a  moslem. After with much polite and courtesy excuses were given to  Mr and Mrs controleur, in the end, they were agreed to leave the ceremony of erecting thepillar.The pillar, at last was erected easily then.
 

MASJID PASAR USANG atau  MASJID AIR TIRIS.
 DI dirikan atas ilham seorang ulama' yang penuh keramah, Dt.Ongku Mudo Songkal. Ilham ini kemudian nya di persetujui oleh Ketua Negeri ketika itu iaitu Ninik MamakXII Kenegerian Air Tiris.. Di bangunkan sekitar tahun 1901. Keunikan Masjid ini adalah kerana telalu banyak berlakunya kejadian ' keramah' semasa kerja kerja dilakukan.Sebagai contoh, Tiang paling besar tidak terdaya di tarik naik menegak, walaupun telah di tarik oleh orang ramai. Ini terjadi kerana telah hadir dua tetamu yang masi kafir dalam upacara ter5sebut. Perkara ini di sedari oleh Dt.Ongku Mudo Songkal, maka dengan penuh hikmah dan helah, beliau  berjaya memujuk Tuan dan nyoya ' Controleur ' yang bukan Islam itu meninggalkan majlis. Tiang itu dapat di tegakkan dengan mudah kemudiannya.

Kehebatan masjid ini juga, ia dibangunkan tanpa menggunakan walaupun sebatang paku. Ia di dirikan dengan menggunakan cara sambungan kayu dengan menggunakan pasak. Ukiran seni pahat dan ukir menampakkan kemahiran yang penuh ' berilmu'.

Dua kali terjadi cubaan untuk membakarinya tetapi menemui kegagalan.Pada tahun 1949 Pasar Usang telah di bakar hangus kebumi oleh kaum Gerilya komunis tetapi mereka gagal untuk membakar bangunan Masjid.
Begitu juga pada tahun 1964, Masjid ini telah terselamat dari sebarang kerosakan apabila di landar banjir besar yang telah meranap kebanyakkan rumah di sekelilingnya. Semua ini adalah tanda kekuasaan ALLAH ta'ala jua.

{Not a single joints were  wedged using a nail .All were jointed by using wood in the technique of ' pasak' }


Motif ukiran asli Melayu Kampar yang terdapat pada dinding Mesjid Djami' adalah motif BUNGA TENGAH (bunga matahari ) dan motif anyaman terawang. Motif ini melambangkan keindahan, kebesaran dan keceriaan.




Motif Anyaman Terawang yang banyak terdapat pada anyaman tikar mengkuang yang di buat sajadah solat, kantong dan sumpit( beg ).Motif ini melambangkan kehidupan yang diisi dan diselang seli serta saling mengisi kepentingan lahir dan batin,dunia dan ukhrawi.



Ada 4 tiang penyangga yang dibuat dari kayu KAPINI dengan ukuran tinggi 20 m.Salah satu tiang tersebut di ukir dengan kalimah BISMILAHIRAHMANILRAHIM.

UNIQUENESS OF THIS CALLIGRAPHY

Tiang inii terdiri dari kayu kulim,putat,ubau dan lain.

KALIGRAFI BISMILAH  ini 
  jika ingin membacanya ,hendaklah di tutup bahagian sebelahan nya dan terbuka sebelahnya pula.Nanti anda akan dapati kalimah " 
BISMILAHI

Nama ukiran seperti ini dinamakan ukiran

ISTIMAQ TABLIGH - THE DAWN - RAIN AND WUDHU' PLACE.

THE DAWN / FAJAR MENYISING
SCENE AFTER RAIN LAST NIGHT
in 3am 0n 5/6/2011

                      HIDAYAT OR THE GUIDANCE  LIGHT  is the most valuable
gift given to mankind by Allah. ALLAH  the only  existing god who named Himself as ALLAH. He also named himself with 99 other names and He  ordered  all believers  to start their works with His  names in order to gain ' BARAKAH " He give guidance to those He likes.Thus Hidayah doesn't come easily. It cannot be inherited from father to son neither can be bought or sold.For  hidayah, one  must strive to get it. And the best way chosen by Allah is what He gave it  to his prophets , that 's through the work of Dakwah.

AWAL SUBUH SELEPAS ISRAK

                     HIDAYAH atau cahaya pertunjuk dari Allah subhanallahu taala, ada lah perkara yang termahal sekali dalam kehidupan manusia. HIDAYAT tidak boleh di warisi walaupun oleh  anak seorang ulama' atau di jual beli. Untuk Hidayat ,sesaorang perlu berusaha dengan segenap daya untuknya.Dan jalan yang terbaik ialah melalui jalan yang Allah swt sendiri telah pilih untuk utusannya iaitu jalan Dakwah.


            At last, our prayer was answered  by Allah swt. It rain heavily in the night, around 3:00 am in the morning    ( 5/6/2011 ) .I woke up and prostrated in front  of Him. Dissolved myself and trying to engulf  the tranquility and serenity  of the night . With humble whispers,  begging Him for forgiveness.And the next day, the ground was wet and the air was cool. 

REFRESHING  mornimg  /  SEGAR

                     Akhirnya, Allah swt perkenankan hajat hamba hamba nya yang berada di jalan Allah. Hujan turun dengan lebat di tengah malam, dalam lingkungan jam 3 pagi  malam ahad .5/6/2011. Aku bangkit , berwudhu; lalu bersujud dalam solat, menghadapkan wajah dan diri yang berdosa ini sambil  menagih simpati dan kemaafan. ' Ya Allah, disini berdirinya hamba mu yang dhaif lagi degil dan banyak dosa, ampunilah kesalahan hambamu,ya Allah...'...

As quoted by Brother Hj.Hanapi in his book -          TABLIGH-THE MISUNDERSTOOD JEWEL OF THE  LAST CENTURY. ] , he said :  " Does the kaafir became Muslim through the work of tablighi Jamaat ?  Yes . In africa, one Pakistani jamaat 1 year tour, had converted the whole village back to islam and their number was around 3,000.Colonel Amiruddin { USA } converted more than 3000 christians to islam in separated occasions.In south Java,one village came back to islam with the work of one Malaysian Jamaat.In Sri Lanka, a hindu  priest converted into islam and then help in convert Hindus to Islam.There were more incidences that I  did not know.

 DAY THREE AND FOUR: 2,3 / 06 / 2011
 THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

 IF ANYONES criticizes the work of Dakwah and Tabligh, it only reflected how swallow their minds and souls are,  or how sick his heart  is, in  regarding the understanding of  its ' minhaj' or the intrinsic nature of the work. As what i had experienced in this work, it certainly benefited  the muslim  ummah at large..The movement had sparked a kindle of guided  light to thousand of lost souls. This movement have moved muslims to their right track which for so long had been derailed. /
JIKA ada sesiapa yang tidak senang dengan kerja kerja dari gerakan Dakwah dan Tabligh,  fahamilah ianya adalah hasil dari jiwa mereka yang tidak jernih dan penuh dengan pra-sangka yang mendendam. Pengerakan Jemaah ini telah menghidupkan ribuan hati hati yang telah lama tersasar dan tersesat. Kini jika anda masih membungkam dengan hati yang sakit, ayoh capai tas/ beg bekalan anda dan ikut serta usaha ini di mana mana saja anda  ketemui. Insyallah , anda tidak akan kecewa.

   THE day still  hot and humid.Every ones in their heart, praying silently for rains and that included me.

And there were  also posts  for security which was called  ' HIROSAH"/  Setibanya anda ke dalam kawasan  Medan istimaq, anda perlu membuat pendaftaran kehadiran anda di tempat pos yang di panggil ' ISTIQBAL"  Anda jangan terkejut dan takut pula,apabila mendapati di Gerbang masuk, ada sekumpulan polis kerajaan Indonesia, tercegat disana. Pos kawalan mereka di panggil  pos " HIROSAH" atau kita katakan ' sekuriti.

 

The  tents,/ Khemah

VIEWS INSIDE THE TENTS/ BAHAGIAN DALAM KHEMAH

FIRST LESSON LEARNT.

All works were done on voluntarily bases by brothers all over Sumatera island. The land was flatten and clean for several months.They came with their own 'rupiahs' and other necessities. No fund been  begged. That is first lesson in this school of Dakwah. No begging .No eyes on human's pocket. Begging  only to the richest of all, ie ALLAH swt.No donation needed.
Nowadays, generally people have the strong confident in investing on 'worldly things.they believed  that it be will rewarded  amplely. As for Allah, they strongly believed that they wii  only get 'sawab' or ' pahala'.not worldly ' benefits.Actually, it's reverse vice.Allah is the besr Giver and rewarder.

PELAJARAN PERTAMA:Semua kerja kerja dilakukan secara sukarela oleh rakan rakan sekerja dari seluruh pulau Sumatera.Tanah diratakan dan di bersihkan berbulan bulan.Mereka berdatangan memberi khidmat dengan membelanjakan dengan ongkos/ belanja  sendiri. Tiada meminta minta. Ini lah pelajaran yang pertama dalam sekolah Dakwah. Jangan mengharap dan meminta minta pada mahluk. Minta hanya pada Allah .Zat yang maha kaya raya dan sebaik baik pemberi.ALLAH AR-RAZAQ.

Second lesson, learnt from this school of Dakwah is taking this religion with full spirit of 'Mujahadah' (sacrifies).That's perform ones ' amals' with ' korbani'.or sacrificing devotion. Allah will upgrade the value of devotion according of our sacrification./ Pelajaran kedua ialah beramal berserta sifat mujahadah.Dalam susah payah bermujahadah ada tersimpan ' kemanisan ' amal.
