Assalammualaikum w.b.t
Tarbiyyah means “the
ideal approach in developing human nature, both directly through a method of
verbal or visual communication, or indirectly through providing a role model,
according to a specific curriculum that employs certain means and mechanisms in
order to facilitate positive change.”
I am now a third year MBBS student in International Medical
School Bangalore, it’s already 3 years I reside here and I have learned so many
things about tarbiyyah. Here, I can feel the aura in competing to do a good among
ourselves. Alhamdulillah how beautiful…
When talking about tarbiyyah, I vividly remembered the
moments in first year where I began to understand the concept of it. From here,
I can manage to know how important tarbiyyah is for me as well as my colleagues
to in making a man of substance.
From the quranic verse,
“Who is better in speech than one who calls men to Allah,
work righteousness, and says, ‘verily, I am of those who are Muslims(one who
surrenders).”
[Fussilat : 33]
It is clearly seen that people involve in da’wah is the best
one among us. Not just that, the best among us is the man of da’wah and most
importantly with an akhlak that is purely humble. Not letting his lust and ego
wins his judgement.
In IMS, I learnt that why we should choose a “baju” for us
to wear in order for us to serve Islam. In my personal opinion, we should not
read the idea of amal jamaie and only associate it with well-known jemaah like ISMA,
IKRAM, PAS, HALUAN, and so on and start to label others who does not give wala’
or intima’ to any of those jemaah as
‘tak buat amal jamaie, tak bekerja untuk Islam‘. For me, amal jamaie is really
flexible. If we devote ourselves to the society and do something regarding our
deen, it is also can be considered as amal jamaie. Don’t label others as Allah is
the only one who can judge us. As a muslim, we should choose the best type of
amal jamaie that suite ourselves and with it, we can serve Islam the best.
I learnt that there are many types of baju with different
fashions and colours. At first glance, you will see that each of it is
different from others. Actually, if we analyze it deeper, then we can see that
all jemaah has the same objective, but the ways to achieve the objective are
different. Hence, due to the differences in it, we tend to feel too proud
(izzah) with our baju (in other word is taksub) and we become fanatic of our
own baju. This situation is unhealthy. We should implement the concept of
sinergy and salamatus sodri in this
situation. In my own opinion, we should feel izzah towards our baju, but not
taksub.
I learnt that in order to choose the baju, we should choose
the one that with it, we feel that we are closer to Allah. With it also, we can
give the best for Islam. Choose the one that we think that the method of dakwah
is based on Quran and Sunnah and is the closest to Sirah Nabawiyyah. Actually,
it depends on how we view it. It’s our own ijtihad and our personal perception
about truth. None of us can claim that their “baju” is the most true, most
pure, etc..etc.. Later, Allah will choose who he wants to declare as the
winner. The most important thing that we should do now is to try to strive our
best for the ummah.
To others, I really hope that whatever happen after this, we
can still manage our ukhuwwah well. Whatever baju we wear, we are still working
for the same purpose. We are still being the architect of Islam. If we start to
feel taksub with our baju, then remember, in the principle of ukhuwwah, which
ithar as the highest degree of it, and
salamatus sodri as the lowest level, we
should not become selfish to think that ours is the best. Respect each other.
Act islamically and professionally in facing the differences among us.
Wallahu A’alam.
p/s: This in only personal opinion. It is up to you, whether
to accept it or not
Thank you to my wife that always support me. J
