~ Merebut kelebihan bulan Muharram ~

ALLAH SWT berfirman (maksudnya), “Sesungguhnya bilangan bulan di sisi ALLAH adalah 12 bulan sebagaimana ketetapan ALLAH ketika DIA menciptakan langit dan bumi. Di antaranya ada empat bulan haram. Itulah (ketetapan) agama yang lurus, maka janganlah kamu menganiaya diri kamu dalam bulan yang empat itu.” (Surah at-Taubah, 9: 36)

Nabi SAW bersabda, “Waktu itu telah berputar sebagaimana biasa sejak ALLAH menciptakan langit dan bumi. Satu tahun ada 12 bulan, di antaranya empat bulan haram. tiga bulan berturut-turut, iaitu Zulkaedah, Zulhijah, Muharam, dan satu lagi ialah Rejab yang terletak di antara Jamadilakhir dan Syaaban.” (Hadis Riwayat al-Bukhari)

Muharam ialah bulan yang mulia dan ia memiliki keutamaannya tersendiri. Nabi SAW menyatakan Muharam ialah bulan ALLAH, dan puasa yang paling afdal setelah Ramadan ialah puasa dalam Muharam.

Kata Nabi SAW, “Puasa yang paling afdal setelah puasa Ramadan ialah puasa di bulan ALLAH, al-Muharam. Solat yang paling afdal setelah solat yang difardukan adalah solat pada malam hari.” (Hadis Riwayat Muslim)

Dalil-dalil ini semuanya menunjukkan kemuliaan di bulan haram, terutamanya Muharam. Selain itu, di dalamnya turut ditegaskan lagi akan larangan menganiaya diri. Ini menunjukkan perbuatan maksiat di bulan haram lebih diharamkan lagi berbanding bulan-bulan selainnya. Sebaliknya, amalan soleh pula akan diberikan ganjaran yang besar.

Hikmah bulan haram
Di antara hikmah dijadikan empat bulan haram di mana tiga bulan secara berturut-turut dan satu bulan lagi dengan menyendiri adalah bagi memberi ketenangan kepada umat Islam yang melaksanakan ibadah haji. Iaitu Zulkaedah merupakan satu bulan pertama sebelum bermulanya bulan haji. Seterusnya bulan Zulhijah di mana umat Islam disibukkan dengan ibadah haji dan melaksanakan manasiknya. Kemudian dijadikan bulan yang seterusnya juga sebagai bulan haram, iaitu Muharam supaya pada bulan tersebut mereka dapat kembali ke wilayah atau negara mereka masing-masing yang saling berjauhan secara aman.

Manakala Rejab yang berada di pertengahan tahun pula adalah supaya pada bulan tersebut umat Islam di sekitar Jazirah Arab dapat mengunjungi Kaabah dan melaksanakan umrah dengan aman. (Lihat: Tafsir Ibnu Katsir, 4/148)

Ini adalah kerana dalam bulan-bulan haram, umat Islam diharamkan untuk berperang melainkan sekiranya umat Islam lebih dahulu diserang atau diperangi. Pada ketika umat Islam lebih dahulu diserang, mereka dibolehkan untuk mempertahankan diri serta membuat serangan balas.

Amalan sunnah Muharam
Di antara amalan sunnah yang disebutkan secara khusus pada Muharam adalah berpuasa sunnah.
Sebagaimana disebutkan dalam hadis di atas, puasa yang paling afdal setelah puasa Ramadan adalah puasa Muharam. Maksud puasa dalam hadis tersebut adalah puasa sunnah secara umum. Memperbanyakkan amalan puasa sunnah dalam bulan ini (Muharam) terutamanya pada hari ke-10 Muharam adalah termasuk sunnah-sunnah yang sangat dianjurkan.

‘Abdullah B ‘Abbas r.a berkata, “Nabi tiba di Madinah dan beliau mendapati orang-orang Yahudi sedang berpuasa ‘Asyura (hari ke-10 Muharam).” Nabi bertanya, “Puasa apakah ini?”
Orang-orang menjawab, “Hari ini adalah hari yang baik, iaitu hari di mana ALLAH telah menyelamatkan bani Israel daripada kejahatan musuhnya, maka Musa pun berpuasa sebagai tanda syukur beliau kepada ALLAH dan kami pun turut serta berpuasa’’.

” Nabi SAW pun berkata, “Kami lebih berhak terhadap Musa daripada kamu semua.” Akhirnya Nabi pun berpuasa dan memerintahkan umat Islam untuk berpuasa.” (Hadis Riwayat al-Bukhari)
Sejarah penetapan puasa ‘Asyura mengalami beberapa fasa. Pada awalnya, ketika di Makkah Nabi berpuasa ‘Asyura tanpa memerintah orang lain untuk berpuasa. Kemudian apabila sampai di Madinah, beliau tetap terus berpuasa di hari Asyura dan memerintahkan umat Islam agar turut berpuasa.
Tetapi setelah perintah kewajiban berpuasa Ramadan turun, puasa pada hari Asyura menjadi sunnah dan tidak diwajibkan. Rasulullah mengatakan, “Sesiapa yang hendak berpuasa (pada hari Asyura), silakan berpuasa, bagi yang tidak berpuasa, juga tidak mengapa.” (Hadis Riwayat al-Bukhari)

Kemudian ketika di penghujung hayatnya, Rasulullah SAW bertekad untuk tidak hanya berpuasa pada hari Asyura (hari ke-10) Muharam, tetapi juga bertekad untuk puasa pada hari yang ke-9.
Ibnu ‘Abbas r.a berkata, “Ketika Nabi sedang berpuasa pada hari Asyura dan memerintahkan para sahabatnya untuk turut berpuasa, para sahabat berkata, “Wahai Rasulullah, hari Asyura adalah hari yang diagungkan oleh Yahudi dan Nashara.”

Maka Rasulullah SAW berkata, “Jika begitu, tahun depan insya-ALLAH kita puasa sekali pada hari yang ke sembilannya.” Ibnu ‘Abbas berkata, “Tetapi belum sempat sampai tahun depan, beliau telah wafat terlebih dahulu.” (Hadis Riwayat Muslim)

Dari hadis ini, umat Islam tidak hanya disunnahkan agar berpuasa di hari ke-10 Muharam atau dikenali sebagai hari Asyura, tetapi juga turut disunnahkan agar berpuasa pada hari ke sembilan Muharam.

Rasulullah mengisyaratkan tentang kelebihan puasa ‘Asyura sebagaimana sabdanya, “Adapun puasa di hari Asyura, aku memohon kepada ALLAH agar ia dapat menghapuskan dosa setahun yang lalu.” (Hadis Riwayat Muslim)

~NASA Probe Data Show Liquid Water Evidence on Europa~

November 16, 2011
PASADENA, Calif. -- Data from a NASA planetary mission have provided scientists evidence of what appears to be a body of liquid water, equal in volume to the North American Great Lakes, beneath the icy surface of Jupiter's moon, Europa.

The data suggest there is significant exchange between Europa's icy shell and the ocean beneath. This information could bolster arguments that Europa's global subsurface ocean represents a potential habitat for life elsewhere in our solar system. The findings are published in the scientific journal Nature.

"The data open up some compelling possibilities," said Mary Voytek, director of NASA's Astrobiology Program at agency headquarters in Washington. "However, scientists worldwide will want to take a close look at this analysis and review the data before we can fully appreciate the implication of these results." 

NASA's Galileo spacecraft, launched by the space shuttle Atlantis in 1989 to Jupiter, produced numerous discoveries and provided scientists decades of data to analyze. Galileo studied Jupiter, which is the most massive planet in our solar system, and some of its many moons.


One of the most significant discoveries was the inference of a global saltwater ocean below the surface of Europa. This ocean is deep enough to cover the whole surface of Europa and contains more liquid water than all of Earth's oceans combined. However, being far from the sun, the ocean surface is completely frozen. Most scientists think this ice crust is tens of miles thick.

"One opinion in the scientific community has been if the ice shell is thick, that's bad for biology. That might mean the surface isn't communicating with the underlying ocean," said Britney Schmidt, lead author of the paper and postdoctoral fellow at the Institute for Geophysics, University of Texas at Austin. "Now, we see evidence that it's a thick ice shell that can mix vigorously and new evidence for giant shallow lakes. That could make Europa and its ocean more habitable."

Schmidt and her team focused on Galileo images of two roughly circular, bumpy features on Europa's surface called chaos terrains. Based on similar processes seen on Earth -- on ice shelves and under glaciers overlying volcanoes -- they developed a four-step model to explain how the features form. The model resolves several conflicting observations. Some seemed to suggest the ice shell is thick. Others suggest it is thin.


This recent analysis shows the chaos features on Europa's surface may be formed by mechanisms that involve significant exchange between the icy shell and the underlying lake. This provides a mechanism or model for transferring nutrients and energy between the surface and the vast global ocean already inferred to exist below the thick ice shell. This is thought to increase the potential for life there.

The study authors have good reason to believe their model is correct, based on observations of Europa from Galileo and of Earth. Still, because the inferred lakes are several miles below the surface, the only true confirmation of their presence would come from a future spacecraft mission designed to probe the ice shell. Such a mission was rated as the second highest priority flagship mission by the National Research Council's recent Planetary Science Decadal Survey and is being studied by NASA.

"This new understanding of processes on Europa would not have been possible without the foundation of the last 20 years of observations over Earth's ice sheets and floating ice shelves," said Don Blankenship, a co-author and senior research scientist at the Institute for Geophysics, where he leads airborne radar studies of the planet's ice sheets.


Galileo was the first spacecraft to directly measure Jupiter's atmosphere with a probe and conduct long-term observations of the Jovian system. The probe was the first to fly by an asteroid and discover the moon of an asteroid. NASA extended the mission three times to take advantage of Galileo's unique science capabilities, and the spacecraft was put on a collision course into Jupiter's atmosphere in September 2003 to eliminate any chance of impacting Europa.

The Galileo mission was managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., for the agency's Science Mission Directorate.

JPL is managed for NASA by the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena.

~Treatment For Ankle Pain/Ankle Pain Relief~

What Is An Akle Pain?
Ankle pain involves any discomfort in one or both ankles. When you have an ankle pain, your normal life activities get disrupted. You cannot stand on your feet or walk around as such activities puts alot of pressure on the ankle.


Ankle pain can be associated with swelling, stiffness, redness, warmth in the involved area. The pain is often described as an intense dull ache that occurs upon weight bearing and ankle motion.


Ankle Pain Symptoms.
The ankle pain itself is a symptom of an underlying problem.
  • Swelling.
  • Redness.
  • Tenderness.
  • Warmth within the area.
  • Discoloration of the skin, such as it turning blue, grey or red.
  • Fever.
  • Unable to bear weight on ankle.


Ankle Pain Causes:
Most ankle pain, however..is a result of a sprain, which occurs when your ankle rolls over your foot, causing an ankle ligament to stretch or even tear.Though sprains are often sports related, they occur when you walk on an uneven surface or simply take a misstep.


Ankle Pain Remedies:
  1. Ice the area right away. Apply ice for 10-15 minutes every hour for the first day. Then apply ice for every 4-5 hour for 2 more days.
  2. Rest your ankle for several days. Try not to put much weight on your ankle.
  3. Drink Green Tea or Tea with Ginger. Green Tea and Ginger are both natural anti-inflammatory and will help reduce any swelling.
  4. Soak the affected foot in warm water and camphor. This is intended to assist in reducing swelling and helping rid your ankle of pain.
  5. Put on ACE bandage. You can also buy a brace that supports your ankle.
  6. Use crutches or a cane to help take the weight of a sore or unsteady ankle.
  7. Keep your foot raised up above the level of your heart. When you are sleeping or sitting, place two pillows under your ankle.
  8. You will need to start excercises to strenghten your ankle and avoid injury in the future. Do not begin this excercises until a health care professionals tell you it is safe to start.

~Not all thieves are stupid~

This gives us something to think about with all our new electronic technology.

GPS

A couple of weeks ago a friend told me that someone she knew had their car broken into while they were at a football game. Their car was parked on the green which was adjacent to the football stadium and specially allotted to football fans. Things stolen from the car included a house set of keys, some money and a GPS which had been prominently mounted on the dashboard.


When the victims got home, they found that their house had been ransacked and just about everything worth anything had been stolen. The thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the house. The thieves knew the owners were at the football game, they knew what time the game was scheduled to finish and so they knew how much time they had to clean out the house. It would appear that they had brought a truck to empty the house of its contents.

Something to consider if you have a GPS - don't put your home address in it.. Put a nearby address (like a store or gas station) so you can still find your way home if you need to, but no one else would know where you live if your GPS were stolen.

MOBILE PHONES
I never thought of this myself...
This lady has now changed her habit of how she lists her names on her mobile phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which contained her cell phone, credit card, wallet... Etc...was stolen.

20 minutes later when she called her hubby, from a pay phone telling him what had happened, hubby says 'I received your text asking about our Pin number and I've replied a little while ago.' When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money was already withdrawn. The thief had actually used the stolen cell phone to text 'hubby' in the contact list and got hold of the pin number. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their bank account.

Moral of the story:
Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact list.
Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, Sweetheart, Dad, Mom, etc....

And very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked through texts, CONFIRM by calling back

Also, when you're being texted by friends or family to meet them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the message came from them. If you don't reach them, be very careful about going places to meet 'family and friends' who text you..

Joey’s World

P/S: I never thought of any of those above before! As of now..I no longer have 'home' listed onmy Hp.
Even IF this does not pertain you...share it on to your family & friends...
