RAHASIA HIDUP TENANG DAN BAHAGIA, DIMASA TUA - CERAMAH KH ZAINUDIN MZ TERBARU 2025

Asalamualaikum

warahmatullah

wabarakatuh. May

the peace,

mercy, and

blessings of Allah be with you too.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Muslim brothers and sisters, may Allah have

mercy on them.

Everyone wants happiness

and no one wants

misery in this life. But

in fact, not everyone who wants to be

happy knows the path they must

take to reach

that happiness.

So on the occasion of this meeting

I would like to convey a hadith

from our lord the Great Prophet

Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

Amen. The

book is Mukhtarul Ahadis

An-Nabawiyah. Where he said,

"Arbaun min saadatil mar'i." There are four

things that are signs of a

happy person.

I want to ask, among the

brothers present here, is there

anyone who wants to be miserable?

No.

Everyone certainly wants to find

happiness.

So according to the recipe from our Prophet, the signs of a

happy person are four.

So if you want to be happy you must

have these four things. The

first person is happy, said the Prophet

Darun Wasiun.

Having a house can be nice as long as it's big.

It's easy to organize.

Instead of having a small house, there is a hut

on the edge of the river. If the rain leaks

sideways, it will be the end of the world.

Oh, if that's the case, Islam is materialistic.

This hadith can be interpreted with its

true meaning, the true meaning. It can

be interpreted as a figurative meaning, a

figurative meaning.

If it is interpreted figuratively,

then what is meant by darun wasiun aqbun

wasiun, a spacious house is nothing other

than a spacious heart. Because that's where

the key to true happiness lies.

Even though we only live in a

2*3 m plot, if our hearts are wide,

the house will feel wide. But even though

our house has a yard of tens of thousands of

hectares, there is a swimming pool, the

bedrooms are countless. If

the heart that occupies the house is narrow,

then the house will feel narrow too

. The place to depend is none other than the

heart.

Let us try to see various

people's views about happiness.

There are people who think that happiness is

when they get as much wealth as

possible.

Whoever has a lot of wealth is king.

Everything he wants can be bought. For

security, he can hire officers.

All the facilities to make

life enjoyable can be purchased. In short,

wealth is everything in life.

Until there is a saying,

"Innadahima

fil amakini kulliha taksur rijala

mahobatan wa jalala. Indeed, wealth,

dinar, dirham, money everywhere always

makes the people who have it great.

Try to look at people who have money and

those who don't have money, not

their lifestyle, just their walking style is different.

Wahya lisanun liman ar fasohatan wahiya

silahun liman aritala.

Money is the most powerful weapon

for people who want to go to war and the

most accurate tongue for people who

want to speak. If you speak with a

blocked tongue, try to speak with

smooth wealth.

Until there is a saying like that, everything

can be arranged with wealth.

So among people who have

such views, all their life activities are

only focused on how to

collect

as much wealth as possible.

no matter halal haram, do not know the

evening, morning, noon and night, do not have time to

prostrate, far from religion, far from

spiritual life, far

from Allah and so on.

Until in the Qur'an it is grouped

into a group called lumazah.

Alladzi jamaa ma waadah Yahsabuahu

ak. They accumulate

as much wealth as possible

and think that

this wealth can perpetuate their lives,

perpetuate their wealth, perpetuate

their happiness.

Dear audience,

if this view of life is correct, meaning

that wealth is the

only thing that can make

people happy, there

will never be tears of suffering in a luxurious home.

Of course, in a place where all the facilities

support life, there is no such thing as

suffering.

But joy and sorrow, sadness and happiness,

smiles and laughter belong to

everyone. Whether they have wealth or

not. It is clear that wealth

alone is not a guarantee

that people will be happy. Even without

wealth, it is difficult for people to be happy.

I want to tell you, there is a super-rich person

[laughs]

named Aristotel Onesis, the Greek tanker king

.

He has reportedly up to 11 tankers alone

. He has an

airline company called Olympic

Airlines.

He has hotels in various major cities in the

world, from New York, London,

Paris, Rome and so on. He even has an

island he calls Scorpio Island. Is

that what you call rich?

Having an island is a half-hearted affair.

[laughs]

Well, he had two children. One

son was named Alexander, and the other was a

daughter named Maria, Maria Onesis.

All his hopes were pinned on his

son, Alexander, who would

continue his business,

his wealth, and his dynasty.

What happened? It turned out that the child he had

hoped for, Alexander, died

young in an accident while playing

sports. What kind of sport? It's the

sport of

jet-set rich kids.

His sport was airplanes. If he

fell, he wouldn't be picked up. He'd die.

[laughs] He

had only one daughter, Maria

Onesis. But this daughter was also a

riot.

Her last relationship was with and even

married a Russian. Apparently,

Aristotel Onesis was broken.

His abundant wealth,

his numerous companies, who

would continue? Who would

replace him? Until he

locked himself away on Scorpio Island and died

there tragically. A

multimillionaire,

a super-rich man. He died alone

on a deserted island. As the saying goes, a

chick dies in a barn. It's not a lack of

food, it's an overabundance of food.

That's life. Aristotle Onesis. And

many people are so

wealthy that they are confused by their

own wealth. Consider

the lives of David Rockefeller,

Henry Ford, Adnan Kasogi

, multi-millionaires who were

sometimes overwhelmed by

their own wealth.

It's no wonder that Imam Ali was asked,

"O Ali, if you were asked to choose between

knowledge and wealth, which would you choose?" Of

course, you would choose knowledge. Why? First,

if we share knowledge with

others, it increases, but if we

share our wealth with others, it decreases. If

you have Rp10,000, and

someone shares it with you for Rp5,000, your money will obviously

decrease. But if you share knowledge

with others, others

will be able to recite it. You will become more confident. You don't

become stupid by teaching others.

You can recite the Fatihah, then teach

others the Fatihah. People can recite it, and you

will memorize it better. It's not like your

knowledge disappears after being taught. When someone

comes, they ask someone, "Please teach

me the Fatihah." It's gone.

Second, Imam Ali said,

knowledge protects us. If our wealth... What we

must guard.

The more knowledge we have, the more we should protect ourselves

.

But the more wealth we have, the more confused

we become about how to protect it. Sometimes, if

necessary, we install an alarm around the entire house

.

It's not enough to rent a large dog

outside the door. Beware of

vicious dogs. It's

still not enough to hire

thugs who can pick up the smacks to guard the house. It still does

n't feel safe. Even though the house is

surrounded by large walls. Behind the

walls are thick doors.

Behind those doors opens into rooms.

Rooms also have doors. The doors are

strong.

Entering the rooms there are cupboards,

and the cupboard doors are strong.

The locks are strong. But

all that arises is just

anxiety.

In conclusion, once again, without wealth,

it is difficult for people to be happy. But

wealth alone is no

guarantee of happiness. A

broad heart is the main capital for achieving

happiness in life.

People with broad hearts,

brothers and sisters, have hearts that are broad

in seeing the realities of this life, they are

always grateful to God.

Then there is no jealousy or envy in

their hearts. Therefore, their souls are always

broad. If not, they are called short-sighted,

shallow-minded, and not happy to see

others get what they want. It's a pleasure. And that's often

used as an example. If a

broad-minded person sees their neighbor buy a

new TV, they say, "Thank God,

our neighbor bought a TV, hopefully

we can watch it too." They're broad-

minded. But a narrow-

minded person sees their neighbor buy a TV and

gets feverish

[laughs] and

doesn't do anything.

The next day, Meri hears that her neighbor bought a motorbike and gets even

sicker and goes to the hospital.

Then, in the hospital, she hears that her neighbor

bought a car and dies.

Tortured by her own feelings.

If a person's heart is narrow in

life, wherever they go,

their life feels narrow.

Then we also see people

who believe that happiness comes

from having a high position, a

noble rank, or great authority.

Maybe that's true, but maybe not.

It depends on the heart of the person who holds

that rank. It's the same with wealth.

Wealth will bring happiness if it

falls into the hands of a broad-hearted person

. But wealth will be a disaster

if it falls into the hands of a

narrow-hearted person.

Rank brings danger if it falls into

the hands of a narrow-hearted person.

More than that, reality teaches

us that rank and

position don't always bring

happiness in life.

In fact, the risks are too great.

Some evidence we can Take it from

world leaders who became victims

because of the rank and position

they held.

You remember President Abraham Lincoln

and John Kennedy of America were

assassinated.

Pak Cunghi of South Korea,

Ziaur Rahman of Bangladesh,

Anwar Sadatad of Egypt. Most recently,

Indira Gandhi of India became a victim

of the rank and position she

held from people who were

unhappy with her holding that position.

She would easily invite disaster.

So it's fitting that a

prominent American president, Eris Struman,

said that the

presidency is like

riding a tiger, riding a tiger.

We have to ride it. If not, it will

record us. He said it was scary.

As for people with broad hearts, when

they accept rank and position,

they see it as an opportunity to

do good. But people with

narrow hearts accept rank and position

not only sometimes but also

desperately try to achieve it by

any means. If necessary, they curry favor,

curry favor. So the sumuhun dawuh group.

[laughs]

So the kulon nuwun group. Yes, sir. Those who

only do good work, boss.

If necessary, curry favor, curry favor.

If necessary, step on those below, step on those

below. You need to elbow left and right, elbow

left and right. The important thing is to get rank,

get position.

People like this, when they already

have rank and position, usually

don't view it as a trust,

don't view it as an opportunity to

do good, but rather as an opportunity

to indulge their desires, which are motivated

by their narrow-

mindedness.

Especially if someone gets a rank

because they spend a lot of money.

It's as if rank and position are

now like tender projects.

Who dares to pay this much, who

dares to step aside. Logically,

if someone achieves a position because they

spend a lot of money, it's

almost certain

that once they hold that position, the

first step they will take

is to try to

recoup their money. Well, at

least they'll recoup their investment first.

As for thinking about the people, that's a matter for later. But

this capital must be recouped. That's the disaster

if someone gets rank and

position just because they spend a lot of

money.

Rarely do people have the belief

and view that rank and position

are a trust. So once again,

rank and position might bring

happiness if they fall into the hands of a

broad-hearted person. But they can be

disastrous if they fall into the hands of People

with narrow hearts, and

again, the stress of a broad heart.

Then some of you, brothers,

think that happiness is

being famous,

having popularity,

being an idol among teenagers,

among parents, in all levels of

society.

In fact, the more popular people are, the more

bound they are. Yes, for people like us, we

have no name, we are not popular.

Hanging out at a Tegal food stall in the middle of the night is

safe.

But rank, position, status, and

popularity cause us to be bound

by various rules. Only

bathing and going to the toilet are not

escorted.

[laughs]

Is it true that fame and popularity

bring happiness? Maybe yes, but

maybe not. Why do many

popular people end

their lives tragically?

Let's take a few names.

In America in the 60s, there was the

most famous sexy star nicknamed the sex

bomb bob.

Until now, her name is

Marilyn Monroe. The

double abbreviation is the initials mm

Marilyn Monroe.

Famous until her death in 2 years

. Now people still talk about her

.

Why did she commit suicide?

She didn't have much wealth. Was she not

popular enough? The whole world

knew her.

From the common people to high officials,

she had relationships. Why?

Bored.

She was born an orphan.

Not long after that

, her mother died, she moved from

foster mother to foster mother, until she had 12

foster mothers.

And the worst disappointment, every

man who was close to her was

like a ship that had anchored.

[laughs]

They came and went, they changed. Even though

she longed for someone who could

protect her life. She longed for that

and she never found it.

That's what ultimately led to her taking an

overdose of sleeping pills,

taking too many sleeping pills. Yes, she sleeps

all the time to this day.

She admitted,

"I've had fame, but

I've never lived up to

that fame. I'm good at acting, but

I want to live in a real world

like most people." That's what he

longed for,

following in the footsteps of the Morilin

Monroe, Billy Holiday. You know, he was

treated in the hospital,

he also took an overdose of medication and died again.

Jimmy Hendrick

took an overdose of sleeping pills and

died again.

Then those who drowned in the lake,

like Joplin and

Brian John,

were popular people,

prominent people who ended their lives

tragically. Not because they weren't famous,

maybe because they were so famous. The

most recent example is Bruce Lee. Wow,

these sleazebags certainly know

who he is.

[laughs]

Even now, the circumstances of his death

are still a mystery.

And those who are still alive also show

strange symptoms. Michael Jackson's

house in Beverly Hills was guarded

in such a way and he was always suspicious

of every food. It had to be sterile,

clean from all kinds of chemicals.

Where did he go? Those

sleazebags were always guarding and

guarding him. And he seemed afraid

to show his real face.

When he appeared outside of the show, he

sometimes wore clothes that didn't

show the real him. Afraid of

being recognized. It turns out that popularity

often becomes a scourge that poisons

human life.

Therefore, our master was right

when he taught that people will be

happy if they have a

broad heart. Now, the question is,

how do we achieve a broad heart? We return to the concept of

the Quran. Allah teaches ala inna

bikrillahi tatmainnul qulub. Know

that by remembering Allah often, the heart

will be calm,

the soul will be broad.

In other words, close to religion.

Feel God's presence close in

life.

That is the first estuary to achieve a

broad heart.

Ala inna bidikrillahi tatmainul qulub.

Don't be like people today who want to

find peace by treading on

mountaintops, in caves in

quiet places. Of course, if there are no snakes.

If a poisonous snake bites, the peace is

not yet dead, that's clear [laughs]

Islam is positive for finding

peace. Ala inikrillahi tatmainul

qulubi.

Know that by

remembering Allah often, the heart will be calm, the soul

will be broad, the nuances of thought will be broad.

Because happiness is

everywhere humans are. In the village there is

happiness, in the city there is happiness.

In the canyon, in the valley, in the mountain, in In

the forest, in the ocean, in outer space,

wherever happiness is found, if we

have this open heart.

And our hearts will be open if we are close

to religion,

close to wealth. For a while, our hearts

may be calm.

But it is a relative and

temporary peace. Moreover, as people increase their

wealth, they add more plans. That's

normal.

Perhaps you previously thought,

"Ah, if I had 5,000 Rupiah, that would be nice."

Once you have 5,000 Rupiah, "Oh, what a shame

if it was only 10,000 Rupiah."

With each increase in wealth, there are different

plans.

The more plans, the further

we move from peace.

Yet, peace is the main ingredient

for achieving happiness. And

that peace originates in the human heart.

Look at this life. People with

wealth and those who are poor, is the

pain they

endure different? I don't think so. Although the

rich sleep on soft mattresses covered in

expensive silk, the poor

huddle in hard, rough bamboo halls

.

When death comes, it

never discriminates. Death comes to take

the rich on their golden thrones,

surrounded by maids,

nurses, and guards.

and even come to pick up the poor and

destitute, so that he lies sprawled on the side of

the road, both are called death.

If it is clear that the illness endured

by the rich is no different from the illness

endured by the poor, it is not only wealth

that makes people happy. A calm heart

, a broad soul full of

peace.

Because frequent remembrance and remembrance of

Allah are the main capital to

achieve something called happiness.

Dear ladies and gentlemen,

this is the first of four characteristics

described by the Prophet as

signs of a happy person.

And we must start from

this first, this broad heart

that we must have first, then

later on the

third, second, and so on.

Because if the heart is filled with a

broad soul, all problems

will be able to be resolved properly, God willing

.

Amen.

Second, now the sign of a happy person

according to the Prophet, markabun sharia. A

happy person, he said, has a

vehicle so that it is fast and smooth.

Meaning wherever he wants to go is easy.

What is the meaning of this hadith? If we examine it

more deeply, a vehicle is a means of

transportation.

Transportation is nothing more than an effort to

facilitate communication.

Moving from there to the theory that

humans are political creatures We live in a

society

where we cannot meet

our needs alone. We

need the presence of others in

this life. Just to wear clothes,

we need farmers who grow

cotton, factories that spin cotton into

yarn, factories that

weave yarn into cloth,

sewing machines, and tailors.

That's just to wear clothes.

None of us

can meet our needs

alone.

We need others. Therefore, freedom

in the absolute sense, unlimited freedom, is

impossible in life.

Because we engage in what is called

social interaction.

Every activity we do necessarily involves

others. In our opinion. Perhaps

we are free to drive as we please on the highway,

but other people driving also feel

that this is also their rightful way. And

so on.

Therefore, the purpose of

this fast vehicle is khulatuhu

maasihin.

His social circle consists of

pious people. His social circle is broad.

Wherever he goes, there are friends. He

has a place to share his difficulties.

And difficulties. If he has told

others, let's say that person

can't help, but

telling someone we

trust will at least

lessen the burden on his soul, lessen the burden.

inner burden, feeling like there's still

room for us to share.

It's better to be a layperson who wants to

socialize than a half-pious person

who locks the door. Because later on, it will

give rise to a narrow-minded attitude and

not be able to broadly face the realities of

this life.

However, what we must emphasize is that

socializing must be broad. But

never forget that socializing has a

huge influence in

shaping a person's personality. In

everyday life, we can say that if we are

close to a perfume seller, even if we

don't share the oil, the scent will certainly be

felt. True.

True.

But close to a welder, even if we

don't touch the fire, the smoke will still be touched.

To put it more clearly,

asan

mushaf.

Whoever associates with noble people

will also become noble. But whoever

befriends lowly people

will not become noble. Didn't

you see what Syauki said,

even a lowly goat's skin is kissed when it

becomes a Quran pouch. A

lowly goat's skin. If it were alone,

no one would kiss it. But once

it associates with the Quran, it becomes a

Quran pouch, perfumed,

placed in a high place, when it is

taken, it is kissed first, carried with great

respect and Be careful. Goatskin,

despised for its association with the Quran,

gets lucky.

But look at how goatskin

befriends wood, making it into a drum. After

midday prayers, it's called a drum, and after afternoon prayers, it's called a drum.

That's just a small matter. It's just a greeting, choosing

friends. Those who are friends with the Quran are respected

, those who are friends with wood because they become a

drum. Even in the dark of dawn, people are already

drumming.

[laughs]

So, especially for young teenagers

who are still searching for their identity,

like a cassette tape that's still empty and easily

filled with anything, be

smart in choosing the friends you

hang out with.

Because many people who were

good when they were dragged into

the company of bad people,

their goodness became pliable and faded

. But how many rancid bastards, people covered in stains and sin, commit sins every day, yet they associate with good people. In the end, little by little, inching and gradually, they get used to following goodness.

I emphasize this to teenagers because

they are still searching for their identity. What

they see, they want. What

they hear, they want. Curious. Just

look at the lives of teenagers.

After watching the movie Rembo, I want to be

Remembo. Brave. I

want to be able to

fly.

After watching the movie India, I want to sing all the time.

[laughs]

It's natural that they're still searching for

my identity, who I really am. The

social environment will shape that.

Therefore, be smart about your social life

because it has a huge influence in

shaping a person's personality.

Moreover, bad traits are more

contagious than good traits.

Good traits, pious character are

very slow to spread. But what's

not good is the process, when

teenagers usually first hear. Because they

hear, then they want to know. Because they want to

know, then they see. Once they see, they

want to try.

After trying, after trying, they get

addicted.

This is the process of marijuana, morphine,

narcotics, at first, that's how it is. At first,

they hear, they say, "If you fly to the

sky, you're

already floating in the sky."

That's the peak of happiness. At first, they

just hear.

Because they hear, they want to know.

Because they want to know, then they see. Hanging out

with people who like marijuana. After

seeing it, you want to experience it.

Once you feel it, it's delicious and addictive.

Once you're addicted, it becomes a

chronic disease that can spread to others.

Yes. If your parents can afford

morphine, buy marijuana. If not,

your mind wanders. Who's going to hang out the laundry?

Negative behaviors

arise from bad company. This is

especially true for teenagers

living in big cities

where cultural influences, artistic influences, and

life structures seem

increasingly individualistic.

Where competition is fierce, tensions rise, and the economy is

high, people easily experience stress.

Be smart about your social life,

because it has a huge influence

on shaping

your personality.

Happy people have fast vehicles

, meaning they have a wide circle of friends

and a social circle consisting of

pious people. Wherever they

go, they have friends. When they have difficulties, they have someone to

talk to.

But if they are alone, living

alone, thinking about their difficulties alone, they

could die before their time. There's

no place to share their feelings. There's

no place to talk, no

place It reduces the burdens of life.

It is fitting that Islam strongly

encourages and encourages people

to get married when the time comes

. The Prophet said, "Yaabab,

manumulatwaj."

O young men, if you are able to

provide for yourself, get married, get married.

Why? You already have a life partner to

share your feelings with.

Difficulties with someone to talk to are

lighter than those we endure

alone, even if the burden is just as

heavy.

Muslim brothers and sisters,

may Allah have mercy on them, this is the second characteristic:

having a vehicle for speed and smooth sailing.

Wherever we want to go is easy. In

other words, after a broad heart,

broad social circles. Two.

The third

sign of a happy person, according to the Prophet, is

misbahun mudhiun.

Having bright lights.

Oh, that's not a problem. Now it's the

era of electricity in villages, sir. The lights

are all bright. That's right, if that's what is

meant. But it's not only that.

Because the lights referred to here are lights

that will illuminate the entire journey of

life. And the journey of life has

begun from the moment we are born into this world

until we enter the realm of barzakh, gathering in the

field of mahsyar, and finally the afterlife.

The lights that illuminate are those that

required. Let

's say the top lamps

right now are Mercury type lamps.

Put it in our house. He just

lights up our house. I can't even light my heart

.

If we enter the realm of barzakh, the realm of

the grave, can the mercury which is so

bright illuminate our realm of barzakh?

Can't take it anymore?

Can lamps of hundreds of watts

or even tens of thousands of watts illuminate

life in Padang Mahsyar?

If so,

what is meant by bright lights here?

Nothing other than the good deeds

we do in life will

become a shining light.

In the world our names will be bright.

Our bodies may be buried in the ground, but

people will remember our names.

That's how people leave

virtue in life. Like now

thousands of people make pilgrimages every time to the

grave of Imam Syafi'i, to the grave of Imam Malik,

to the grave of Imam Ghazali,

to the graves of good people,

pious people, whose

virtues were left behind. who

engraved his name in gold ink.

Until your brother was lying in the

grave, people passed by, "God, this is so and so

bin's grave So and so used to be

good. Masha Allah, I

feel it too. Let's stop by for a moment

we fatihah.

Please convey the reward of

Al-Fatihah to the deceased

if he was a good person."

Then the brother asked, "Sir, are dead people

sent Fatihah? Did the

reward arrive? I replied, "If you

don't believe me, then die first.

I'll recite the Fatihah later, wait for me there."

Suppose I never come back here again.

Oh, now I just want to brainstorm

. If it doesn't enter your brain, you won't

believe it. Even though the unseen realm

cannot be tampered with. It's

the same as you've heard

the story of a ship without gold sinking, right?

Have you ever?

Once. Where?

Salembo.

Salembo,

yes. In the sea of ​​Mas Lembo. Once the boat was fully

submerged, hundreds of passengers jumped

into the sea, being carried by the waves, struggling

to face their deaths. That

person is floating and sinking in the ocean,

being hit by waves. We'll look at it using a

helicopter. Sir, you're drowning again, aren't you

? Yes Please, please. Don't

worry, sir. Here, I'll send you some diamonds,

sir. the price is Rp. 10 million. [laughs] Do

you think people who appear and drown in

the sea are happy?

No. It's

expensive, right? Intan IDR 10 million. Why is

n't he happy? Because Intan R10 million

in such a condition is not enough to

save him. He would be happy if he

was sent used car tires,

stretched boards or bamboo.

He wasn't happy about the IDR 10 million diamond. I'm

holding a used car tire worth 1000 silver. That's what he's happy about. That's right.

This is why the Prophet said, "Mal

mayitu fiqrihi illa kalqil mutagwis."

People who die in their graves are

like people who arise and drown in the

ocean. Yantaziru dawatan min ahli.

Waiting for prayers from his surviving family

. Oh, my father has passed away.

I really love him. Ah, send a

refrigerator to his grave. Ah.

It's the same as before. A person who

drowned in the ocean was sent a diamond

worth R10 million, but it never arrived.

That's how even if the virtues we

leave behind in life are dead,

people will still visit our graves. But

if we leave behind evil,

never mind people praying near

our grave, it will be scary.

That bastard died buried

there.

Don't, don't, don't go past there or you'll be

possessed. Don't [laugh]

just pass by a scary person who is supposedly

reciting Fatihah and sending prayers.

Life is essentially an opportunity

to do good. So once the

opportunity is given, make the

most of it. Because there

will never be a second chance.

The opportunity to do good is here, in

the afterlife it is called retribution. Once

that opportunity is taken away, it will

never be returned. Iqbal said,

"Life doesn't go backwards, man.

Stop being stepped on by people, going backwards is destroyed. There

is no such thing as going backwards in this life.

Stop being stepped on by people, going backwards is sinking.

There is no other word. You have to move forward in

life. In a positive sense,

life is an opportunity to

collect

as much goodness as possible. That is

the value of humans.

Nowadays, it is not visible that

people with many merits and those with

many sins are not visible.

Maybe after committing a sin,

their heads get bumped.

Maybe people are afraid of sin. But

now it's the same. People with many

sins and those without many sins

walk together from behind, they don't

look any different.

But there are times when merits

play a role where sins

are shown. It's the

same as if we drive a car during the day,

the lights don't really work.

What then says, "Ah, these lights are

heavy, just take them off."

There's no need for that. Why? At some

point, evening will come. When

the sun sets, dusk comes,

darkness begins to creep in. That's when the

need for lights is felt. Rewards. That's it.

Now, people who have no merits It's

not invisible in life.

But at some point, the twilight of life

will come, death will take our lives, night will

creep in, and life will be shrouded in

darkness in the realm of Barzakh. At that time,

if we don't have a lamp, how

unfortunate we will be.

Because the Prophet said that good deeds in the realm of

Barzakh will be created into a

beautiful woman to accompany us.

Evil deeds will be the

ugliest person to accompany us.

Already in a dark place that accompanies the

ugly.

[laughs]

Muslims, may Allah have mercy on us,

if that's the case, it

depends on how we use our

time wisely. Time is

so fast. What is called time,

suddenly it's 7 years old, suddenly it's like

this, suddenly it's like yesterday,

today's children have children.

Suddenly, time passes so quickly

.

If we don't

use it wisely,

we will lose.

The Prophet said, "Manana yaumuhu khairun

min amsihi fahua."

Whoever's day is better

than yesterday is a fortunate person.

Today is better than yesterday.

This month is better than last month,

this year is better than last year.

That's a lucky person.

Last year, they only prayed Maghrib

, now they've added Isha.

[laughs]

Last year, just Eid al-Fitr was

really threatening. Now they've added

Friday, then added Maghrib, then added

Isha, and so on. Today is

better than yesterday, that's a

lucky person.

Yaumuhu mlu amsihi fahua khasir. Then

whoever is the same today

as yesterday is a loser.

Today is the same as yesterday, the loss is that

this month is like that, last month is like that,

this year is like that, last year is also like

that. That person is a loser. What loss? Loss of

age. Age increases, but deeds never

increase.

And I think it's more of a punishment

than a blessing if someone is given a

long life only to accumulate sins.

Which is better, a long life with many sins

or a short life with few sins. Which is better

? Which is

better?

Yes. Yes. The most preferable is certainly a long

life with many rewards.

But if not, once again it's more of a

punishment than a blessing if

someone is given a long life but only

to accumulate sins. Losing

awareness that the world is not the

final terminal of a journey. It's just a

stop at Where we stop for a moment

to head to the

true terminal.

Muslim brothers and sisters,

may Allah have mercy on them,

this is the lamp that will illuminate

life, the

deeds we do in

life. So what is meant by a

bright lamp is the virtues we

do in life. Well, everyone, as

I said earlier, wants to be happy.

Happiness is essentially a collection of

joy and safety.

Happiness and safety.

What's the difference? Happiness but not safety is

not happy. Safety but not

happiness is not happy. For example,

if someone is corrupt, they have

a lot of money. They are happy. But

their safety is not.

There are soldiers lined up next to their house,

confused. Even though the soldiers are training.

The soldiers are just training, they are confused. They are

happy, but because their safety is not

guaranteed, they are not happy. On the other hand,

honest civil servants only

get their salaries. Happy, not corrupt,

but poor. Yes, not happy either,

not happy enough.

Pleasure and safety are for this world

only. Yes, once again, if it's only

for this world, it can be bought with money.

It can be bought with money. If

you want safety, you can buy it with

money. If you want happiness, you can buy it

with money.

But after death, you enter the realm of barzakh.

Money's power is gone. You

can no longer buy safety. Using

money. It's no longer possible to buy

pleasure with money. That's where merit

plays a role.

The more merit, the more shares

to buy pleasure and salvation

to obtain happiness.

And don't forget, in the realm of barzak, we

don't wait for the apocalypse to come for a short time

.

Well, yes, if we are buried

and the apocalypse comes, it's fortunate.

But if we still have to wait 1,000, 2,000,

tens of thousands of years to come

in a long wait

without shares to obtain

happiness, a misfortune that never

ends.

Don't be tempted by

fleeting, deceptive happiness at the expense of

true,

long-term happiness.

What's the point of a momentary smile if it has to be

redeemed with tears? Life span.

Let us drink bitter herbal medicine, it's

bitter indeed. But tomorrow our bodies are healthy,

rather than drinking syrup now. Sweet

is delicious, but tomorrow's lips will be

sore.

Sirawan, coughing profusely.

Many people are deceived by

fleeting pleasures. After all,

not everything that glitters is

gold.

Not everything that glitters is

diamond.

Therefore,

let's take advantage of

this opportunity given by God to gather

As much goodness as possible.

Amen.

Finally, the fourth

sign of a happy person. The Prophet said,

"Zaujatun shihah." The

fourth sign of a happy person is, the

Prophet said, "Have a wife so you'll be beautiful as long as she's

obedient." Being beautiful and

obedient is already in heaven. A wife like

that, if she's not dead yet, don't bury her

.

[laughs] She's

already beautiful and obedient.

But sometimes she's not. She's ugly and always

acting up.

What would you choose?

[laughs]

That's why the Quran says that a

wife is clothing for her husband, and a husband is clothing

for her. Why is a husband and wife

likened to clothing? How high is the

Quran's style of language.

Husband and wife are life partners. Life is a

long journey. Since we were in

the womb, there's been life here, right?

Up to the worldly realm, into the realm of

Barzakh. Gathering in the field of Mahsyar until we

reach the afterlife is a journey of life.

Look for a wife or husband, a life partner

who brings benefits. Not only

life in this world, up to the realm of

Barzakh, up to the Field of Mahsyar.

The husband may die first,

or the wife may die

first. But the husband or wife who is still

alive does good, my husband When someone

dies, I give his wealth to charity.

The intention is to reward my late husband.

This life partner is

unlimited and cannot be separated

even by death.

Their physical appearance may be separated, their physical appearance may be,

but their heart, their soul,

their togetherness in facing

life.

Therefore, brothers and sisters, the language of

the Quran is beautiful. Husband and wife are likened

to clothing.

What is the function of clothing? First, clothing is a source of

pride. This means that the husband must

be the pride of his wife, and the wife must

be the pride of her husband. Second,

clothing functions to cover the aurat (private parts).

This means that

husband and wife must protect each other's shortcomings. Husband and wife should not

reveal each other's secrets and shame

.

The wife's bad news is told

everywhere or the husband's secrets are revealed

in the public market.

[laughs]

That no longer functions as

clothing.

Why is all this necessary? Because we

realize that a good nation consists of a

good society. A good society is

composed of good citizens

. Good citizens are composed

of

good households. And good households

are composed of

good individuals.

From there, the steps begin. Building

a good nation begins with

building a household. Good character is achieved by

developing good individuals.

From this, it is hoped that

good values ​​will develop.

People will be happy to have a pious wife

. Why? No husband

can be successful. So whatever he is, whatever

his profession, whether a doctor, a religious teacher, a

preacher, a farmer, a businessman, or a

high-ranking official, no

husband can succeed without the participation of

his wife. Although this role is

not very visible, it is very

crucial.

Therefore, ladies and gentlemen

, Islam highly values

women.

It gives them a high position

as long as it does not kill

their feminine nature.

Now, if this success begins

at home, a career in society is

easy to pursue, but a mess

at home is the

first failure elsewhere. Well, that's all

Al-Fakir can convey at

this meeting.

ber

S

Yeah.
