As-Sunnah
Wasiat Sebelum Tidur
Majdi As-Sayyid Ibrahim
- "Ali berkata, Fathimah mengeluhkan bekas alat penggiling yang dialaminya. Lalu pada saat itu ada seorang tawanan yang mendatangi Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Maka Fathimah bertolak, namun tidak bertemu dengan beliau. Dia mendapatkan Aisyah. Lalu dia mengabarkan kepadanya. Tatkala Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam tiba, Aisyah mengabarkan kedatangan Fathimah kepada beliau. Lalu beliau mendatangi kami, yang kala itu kami hendak berangkat tidur. Lalu aku siap berdiri, namun beliau berkata. 'Tetaplah di tempatmu'. Lalu beliau duduk di tengah kami, sehingga aku bisa merasakan dinginnya kedua telapak kaki beliau di dadaku. Beliau berkata. 'Ketahuilah, akan kuajarkan kepadamu sesuatu yang lebih baik daripada apa yang engkau minta kepadaku. Apabila engkau hendak tidur, maka bertakbirlah tiga puluh empat kali, bertasbihlah tiga puluh tiga kali, dan bertahmidlah tiga puluh tiga kali, maka itu lebih baik bagimu daripada seorang pembantu". (Hadits Shahih, ditakhrij Al-Bukhari 4/102, Muslim 17/45, Abu Dawud hadits nomor 5062, At-Tirmidzi hadits nomor 3469, Ahmad 1/96, Al-Baihaqy 7/293)
Wahai Ukhti Muslimah !
Inilah wasiat Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam bagi putrinya yang suci, Fathimah, seorang pemuka para wanita penghuni sorga. Maka marilah kita mempelajari apa yang bermanfa'at bagi kehidupan dunia dan akhirat kita dari wasiat ini.
Inilah wasiat Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam bagi putrinya yang suci, Fathimah, seorang pemuka para wanita penghuni sorga. Maka marilah kita mempelajari apa yang bermanfa'at bagi kehidupan dunia dan akhirat kita dari wasiat ini.
Fathimah merasa capai karena banyaknya pekerjaan yang harus ditanganinya, berupa pekerjaan-pekerjaan rumah tangga, terutama pengaruh alat penggiling. Maka dia pun pergi menemui Rasulullah Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam untuk meminta seorang pembantu, yakni seorang wanita yang bisa membantunya.
Tatkala Fathimah memasuki rumah Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam, dia tidak mendapatkan beliau. Dia hanya mendapatkan Aisyah, Ummul Mukminin. Lalu Fathimah menyebutkan keperluannya kepada Aisyah. Tatkala beliau tiba, Aisyah mengabarkan urusan Fathimah.
Beliau mempertimbangkan permintaan Fathimah. Dan, memang beliau mempunyai beberapa orang tawanan perang, ada pula dari kaum wanitanya. Tetapi tawanan-tawanan ini akan dijual, dan hasilnya akan disalurkan kepada orang-orang Muslim yang fakir, yang tidak mempunyai tempat tinggal dan makanan kecuali dari apa yang diberikan Rasulullah. Lalu beliau pergi ke rumah Ali, suami Fathimah, yang saat itu keduanya siap hendak tidur. Beliau masuk rumah Ali dan Fathimah setelah meminta ijin dari keduanya. Tatkala beliau masuk, keduanya bermaksud hendak berdiri, namun beliau berkata. "Tetaplah engkau di tempatmu". "Telah dikabarkan kepadaku bahwa engkau datang untuk meminta. Lalu apakah keperluanmu?".
Fathimah menjawab. "Ada kabar yang kudengar bahwa beberapa pembantu telah datang kepada engkau. Maka aku ingin agar engkau memberiku seorang pembantu untuk membantuku membuat roti dan adonannya. Karena hal ini sangat berat bagiku".
Beliau berkata. "Mengapa engkau tidak datang meminta yang lebih engkau sukai atau lebih baik dari hal itu ?". Kemudian beliau memberi isyarat kepada keduanya, bahwa jika keduanya hendak tidur, hendaklah bertasbih kepada Allah, bertakbir dan bertahmid dengan bilangan tertentu yang disebutkan kepada keduanya. Lalu akhirnya beliau berkata. "Itu lebih baik bagimu daripada seorang pembantu".
Ali tidak melupakan wasiat ini, hingga setelah istrinya meninggal. Hal ini dikatakan Ibnu Abi Laila. "Ali berkata, 'Semenjak aku mendengar dari Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam, aku tidak pernah meninggalkan wasiat itu".
Ada yang bertanya. "Tidak pula pada malam perang Shiffin ?".
Ali menjawab. "Tidak pula pada malam perang Shiffin".
(Ditakhrij Muslim 17/46. Yang dimaksud perang Shiffin di sini adalah perang antara pihak Ali dan Mu'awiyah di Shiffin, suatu daerah antara Irak dan Syam. Kedua belah pihak berada di sana beberapa bulan)
Boleh jadi engkau bertanya-tanya apa hubungan antara pembantu yang diminta Fathimah dan dzikir ?
Hubungan keduanya sangat jelas bagi orang yang memiliki hati atau pikiran yang benar-benar sadar. Sebab dzikir bisa memberikan kekuatan kepada orang yang melakukannya. Bahkan kadang-kadang dia bisa melakukan sesuatu yang tidak pernah dibayangkan. Di antara manfaat dzikir adalah :
- Menghilangkan duka dan kekhawatiran dari hati.
- Mendatangkan kegembiraan dan keceriaan bagi hati.
- Memberikan rasa nyaman dan kehormatan.
- Membersihkan hati dari karat, yaitu berupa lalai dan hawa nafsu.
Boleh jadi engkau juga bertanya-tanya, ada dzikir-dzikir lain yang bisa dibaca sebelum tidur selain ini. Lalu mana yang lebih utama ? Pertanyaan ini dijawab oleh Al-Qady Iyadh : "Telah diriwayatkan dari Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam beberapa dzikir sebelum berangkat tidur, yang bisa dipilih menurut kondisi, situasi dan orang yang mengucapkannya. Dalam semua dzikir itu terdapat keutamaan".
Secara umum wasiat ini mempunyai faidah yang agung dan banyak manfaat serta kebaikannya. Inilah yang disebutkan oleh sebagian ulama :
Pertama
Menurut Ibnu Baththal, di dalam hadits ini terkandung hujjah bagi keutamaan kemiskinan daripada kekayaan. Andaikata kekayaan lebih utama daripada kemiskinan, tentu beliau akan memberikan pembantu kepada Ali dan Fathimah. Dzikir yang diajarkan beliau dan tidak memberikan pembantu kepada keduanya, bisa diketahui bahwa beliau memilihkan yang lebih utama di sisi Allah bagi keduanya.
Pendapat ini disanggah oleh Al-Hafidz Ibnu Hajar. Menurutnya, hal ini bisa berlaku jika beliau mempunyai lebihan pembantu. Sementara sudah disebutkan dalam pengabaran di atas bahwa beliau merasa perlu untuk menjual para tawanan itu untuk menafkahi orang-orang miskin. Maka menurut Iyadh, tidak ada sisi pembuktian dengan hadits ini bahwa orang miskin lebih utama daripada orang kaya.
Ada perbedaan pendapat mengenai makna kebaikan dalam pengabaran ini. Iyadh berkata. "Menurut zhahirnya, beliau hendak mengajarkan bahwa amal akhirat lebih utama daripada urusan dunia, seperti apapun keadaannya. Beliau membatasi pada hal itu, karena tidak memungkinkan bagi beliau untuk memberikan pembantu. Kemudian beliau mengajarkan dzikir itu, yang bisa mendatangkan pahala yang lebih utama daripada apa yang diminta keduanya".
Menurut Al-Qurthuby, beliau mengajarkan dzikir kepada keduanya, agar ia menjadi pengganti dari do'a tatkala keduanya dikejar kebutuhan, atau karena itulah yang lebih beliau sukai bagi putrinya, sebagaimana hal itu lebih beliau sukai bagi dirinya, sehingga kesulitannya bisa tertanggulangi dengan kesabaran, dan yang lebih penting lagi, karena berharap mendapat pahala.
Kedua
Disini dapat disimpulkan tentang upaya mendahulukan pencari ilmu daripada yang lain terhadap hak seperlima harta rampasan perang.
Ketiga
Hendaklah seseorang menanggung sendiri beban keluarganya dan lebih mementingkan akhirat daripada dunia kalau memang dia memiliki kemampuan untuk itu.
Keempat
Di dalam hadits ini terkandung pujian yang nyata bagi Ali dan Fathimah.
Kelima
Seperti itu pula gambaran kehidupan orang-orang salaf yang shalih, mayoritas para nabi dan walinya.
Keenam
Disini terkandung pelajaran sikap lemah lembut dan mengasihi anak putri dan menantu, tanpa harus merepotkan keduanya dan membiarkan keduanya pada posisi berbaring seperti semula. Bahkan beliau menyusupkan kakinya yang mulia di antara keduanya, lalu beliau mengajarkan dzikir, sebagai ganti dari pembantu yang diminta.
Ketujuh
Orang yang banyak dzikir sebelum berangkat tidur, tidak akan merasa letih. Sebab Fathimah mengeluh letih karena bekerja. Lalu beliau mengajarkan dzikir itu. Begitulah yang disimpulkan Ibnu Taimiyah. Al-Hafidz Ibnu Hajar berkata. "Pendapat ini perlu diteliti lagi. Dzikir tidak menghilangkan letih. Tetapi hal ini bisa ditakwil bahwa orang yang banyak berdzikir, tidak akan merasa mendapat madharat karena kerjanya yang banyak dan tidak merasa sulit, meskipun rasa letih itu tetap ada".
Begitulah wahai Ukhti Muslimah, wasiat Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam yang disampaikan kepada salah seorang pemimpin penghuni sorga, Fathimah, yaitu berupa kesabaran yang baik. Perhatikanlah bagaimana seorang putri Nabi dan istri seorang shahabat yang mulia, harus menggiling, membuat adonan roti dan melaksanakan pekerjaan-pekerjaan rumah tangganya. Maka mengapa engkau tidak menirunya ?
How to Prevent Damaged Hair
Let's begin with heat, have you every heard of the terms direct-heat and indirect heat? Well let me explain, direct heat when applied to the hair is usually with tools like the blow dryer, hot irons and hot rollers. These instruments are more damaging to the hair than indirect heat. In direct heat can be achieved by using a hooded dryer or by simply letting your hair air dry. Direct heat is more damaging to the hair because the heat is being applied directly to the hair shaft. I strongly recommend if you truly need to use this type of heat which is fine on occasion, please use some sort of heat protect ant to coat the hair beneath the direct heat. This shield will protect the hair from being scorched or cause heat damage. If you must apply heat please use the heating tools that have a temperature setting. This way you can choose the right temperature and not allow the instrument to become too hot. Also dirty hair and heat do not mix well, and by dirty I mean hair that has product build up. This build up will cause the hair to burn a lot easier and faster.
Hands down indirect heat is the healthiest form of heat for the hair. However improper usage of a hooded dryer can also lead to damaged hair. For instance while sitting under the dryer and falling asleep. Leaning your head up against the dry can possibly lead to the hair being burned because of the heat being directly against the hair. I know its hard ladies, because I have fallen asleep while under the dryer many days. As for air drying, when it comes to the absolute best as far as the health of your hair is concerned, air drying is the best way to go. Now yes ladies I know what happens to air dried hair of the coarser nature. However it is so much better for your hair to air dry than flat iron then to blow dry, flat iron and then hot curl all in one sitting.
Breakage and damage occurs from the treatment of your hair. If you are not keeping your hair clean, moisturized and away from harsh elements then your results will be damage. Applying heat, color and other chemicals to your hair with out the proper care will give you dry, brittle and breaking hair.
Steps to Prevent Hair Damage
Step 1: Wash your scalp with a moisturizing shampoo at least once a week, I recommend Creme of Nature or Herbal Essences long term relationship. However I prefer to do what is called a co-wash. A co-wash is a wash using conditioner only. The conditioner should be moisturizing and say so on the bottle. I use Herbal Essences long term relationship as well as Herbal Essences other moisturizing conditioner brands.
Step 2: Deep conditioning is very important to the health of the hair. You can deep condition by using a conditioner or cholesterol covering the hair with a plastic cap and sitting underneath a hooded dryer. I prefer to use any moisturizing conditioner I have on hand adding a little olive oil or coconut oil to it, putting on a plastic cap and just going on about my day doing house work. And if I feel I need a good deep condition doing this method and sleeping with the conditioner in my hair, by simply wearing a head scarf or satin bonnet over the plastic cap. The head generates heat on its own and when covered in the plastic cap the heat from the head is confined with in the cap.
Step 3: Air drying or roller setting the hair and sitting under a hooded dryer. When air drying I find that my hair becomes a bit rough and unruly. When I choose to air dry I almost always follow it with a flat ironing session. When flat ironing I use moderate heat and make sure I use a heat protect while doing so. I also pin curl when I'm done if imp interested in achieving a curly do, or I will braid in order to achieve waves.
Step 4: Keeping the hair covered while sleeping is very important. Wearing a satin head scarf or satin bonnet at night when going to bed is a very important step in preventing damage. If you're not the head covering type, then I recommend sleeping on satin pillow cases instead. Most materials when the hair rubs up against it repeatedly will cause damage. It is best to protect your hair by all means and trying it up or simply placing in a bun can help just a little.
Step 5: Keeping the ends of my hair up and away 95% of the time. The ends are the oldest part of your hair, making it the most fragile part of the entire hair shaft. Keeping the ends moisturized is imperative and by keeping the hair in a bun, tucked under or simply in a braid helps to keep them preserved.
Step 6: Always remember to take your vitamins for optimal hair health. A basic hair, skin and nail vitamin can do the trick. Using a hair vitamin as well as maintaining a healthy diet and exercise is the best way to go.

Poolside Hair Favorites: Edition 1
I'm the girl by the pool with the huge sunglasses, killer caribbean like tan (if I must say so myself), and a bag full of hair products next to my lounger! If you need a spray, lotion, or gel I have you covered. I protect my skin and my hair at all times when I'm lounging by the pool, it might look like all fun and games but I'm serious about protecting myself. Skin cancer is not just for white folks and damaged hair is never a good look.
Here are a few of my favorite hair items to keep on hand:
Redken Color Extend Sun - Even though my hair isn't exactly color treated, I love the fact that this product contains Mango Oil to help moisturize my hair.
Federic Fekkai Marine Summer Hair Beachcomber Leave-In, $22.95 Amazon.com
Fekkai Marine Summer Hair Beachcomber Leave-in - I spritz this on when I'm planning on hitting the water again in a while. It adds moisture to my hair and it feels renewed after using just a little bit. You know how you're hair can feel dry after getting out of the water, even after rinsing? Well this is the solution to that problem.
Available from Amazon
for $11.25 Biolage Thermal-Active Repair Cream - Even though this is a thermal product, meaning it's mean to be used with heat tools what's hotter than the sun? This product gets a spot in my bag because it features Cera Heat Technology which is a restorative blend of ceramide and natural oils. I save this product to use once I'm done with the pool and I'm just going to be laying out because it does provide a light hold.

Blonde, how blonde?
Brunettes or blondes that is the question and we've all heard the blonde jokes but ignore those and just go for what's going to suit you the best. If you're thinking of going blonde (or blonder), here's a guide on how to choose from the do it yourself home kits that are widely available.
The first thing to remember if you've never coloured your hair before, is that it's a risky business and we urge that you don't ignore safety features such as the 48 hour patch test and that you follow guidelines on lightening your shade or you may end up with that dodgy orange that people try so hard to avoid.
The second thing to consider is your skin tone, you may absolutely love a haircut and colour on a celebrity or friend but you have to think carefully about whether this would look good on you, in terms of skin tone, face shape and hair type. If you're not sure, your hairdresser will advise and they do tend to know what they're talking about.
Hairstyles
Blonde can suit all different types of hairstyles but you may be disappointed with the result if you don't plan carefully first. For example, if you've got lovely long, dark brown, shiny hair and you wish to go blonde, it's important to realise that dying it blonde could make it dry and also make it look much thinner than the brunette version. This is one of the reasons why very light blondes often go for a short, choppy and funky style with which good condition is easier to maintain. The other thing is that it may take a few goes to get it as light as you want it so we'd recommend having it done professionally to start with and then doing it yourself from then on. With the ever popular fringe, remember that blonde can make the fringe look less full so if you like the blunt, full fringe make sure you've got lots of hair if you're blonde otherwise think about going for a darker shade. You can get away with a lot if you have curly hair but with sleek locks, the conditioning has to be perfect so when lightening your hair, it's worth investing in some professional hair care products that will save you from the dreaded scarecrow hair.
Colours
Ice / Platinum Blonde – Great for those with high cheekbones and pixie features and those with a quirky or asymmetric hairstyle. Light Ash / Ash Blonde – A subtle blue / grey tinge gives this blonde a real edge and can make blue eyes appear even bluer.
Baby Blonde – for that sweet and innocent look, like butter wouldn't melt, this is a great choice for those with fine hair and a cute little baby fringe. Natural Blonde – Perfect for those who are trying to convince the world that they're a natural blonde or for those who are not quite as blonde as they'd like to be. Golden Blonde – This can create gorgeous shiny blonde locks even for those with longer hair because of the lower levels of peroxide. Dark Blonde – A subtle shade better for covering greys than creating drama or a whole new look.
The secret to beautiful blonde hair, no matter what shade you choose, is great conditioning, so get onto buying cheap Tigi hair products or professional hair care products from any other reputable brand, it really will be worth the investment.

Buena Park, Brea, and O.C. Railroads
This map of Buena Park's Japanese Village & Deer Park appears on a number of websites, but I did at least clean it up a bit in Photoshop. This tourist attraction had a fairly short life, opening in 1967 and closing in 1974. It was north of Knott's Berry Farm, near the intersection of Manchester and Stanton Ave..
The Brea Museum & Heritage Center, 495 S. Brea Blvd, will host an exhibit July 3 to Sept. 18 on early U.S. aviation history – with an emphasis on Southern California. The exhibit includes historical photos and documents and a walk-in diorama booth featuring the famous Jan. 1910 Air Meet at Rancho Dominguez Field. The Museum is open on Saturdays, 10am to 3pm.
.
Rob Richardson will discuss and sign his new book, Railroads and Depots of Orange County, at the Old Orange County Courthouse on July 1, from noon to 1pm.
The Unbearable Shortness Of Being
When my husband died he was in his mid fifties and I was in my early thirties. At that time I thought that the age of fifty something was unfathomably old. Naturally my perspective on the matter has changed greatly. At least, when he died, I could say that he had lived a rich and full life. Strangely knowing that he had five decades to live up to his potential, including having two marriages, five children, a successful business and a multitude of friends, made his death less traumatic.
But how does anyone deal with the death of a young adult. There is no way to put an ameliorating layer of "he lived a full life" on the comprehension of death. The death of the young is so very sad because it is also the death of potential. Who would this young man have become if he had lived out his life? What would he have brought to the world?
In this particular situation there are even more questions about how a strapping young man of 20 could disappear on his way home from a friend's house in Bel Air a mile away from his home in Brentwood. How the police and coroner could mistake the identity of a hit and run victim for two days after the family had filed a missing persons report, searched the neighborhoods and trails of western Bel Air by foot, hired a private investigator and searched by bloodhound and helicopter.
A rather amazing thing came out of the senselessness of this situation. Through the use of Facebook and Twitter, the news of his disappearance spread quickly and many more people than just the immediate family and friends could be on the lookout for him. Unfortunately, by then it was too late but it was an important reminder of how technology can help in times of crisis.
Jamie O'Connell, had your grandfather lived to have seen the fine young man that you became, he would have been very proud.

Beauty Break: Sephora makes Sun Safety Easy
Every year Sephora and The Skin Cancer Foundation rounds up the best sun protections products availabe to create the Sephora Sun Safety Kit. For just $25.00 the Sephora Sun Safety Kit has got you covered and 100% of the net profits will benefit The Skin Cancer Foundation.
Why I love it: As a brown girl finding a sunblock that doesn't make me look like I'm radioactive is a hard feat. Either I have a radioactive purple tint or I look like a stand in for HBO's True Blood. All the sun safety products, including eye cream and lip balm, and self tanner come in an adorable pink clutch too!
