Ramadhan Al Mubarak 2010

Allhamdulilah, Ramadan Al Mubarak has arrived again this year. Every Year, ATFAL
encourage our young caliph (esp 5 & 6 years) to fast. With the kind encouragement, awareness and reward, help young caliph to practise fast during class and Allhamdulilah some were doing full time fasting.

They were still active during the class as usual, To avoid thinking of food, during break time we read Dzikir and surah hafazan. Also teacher to replace the playground session with reading books and Prophet Story telling. They were excited to hear stories of the prophet.


At the end of the class teacher praised whom fasting and encourage whom are not
At same time Teacher give sticker reward for whom practise fasting. Teacher said that Allah swt will give special reward to whom those fasting on Ramadan.




Students are not fasting will be isolate from the "fasting" group and will conduct a normal activities. Thus give them encouragement to join the bigger group (fasting's group).

Every Year teacher created Ramadhan Chart, this year the Ramdhan chart are more cheerful and beautiful. The Ramadan Chart is mainly to track numbers of fasting days completed by ATFAL's students, Allhamdulilah this year with the awareness and guidance by teachers, student showing tendency to practise fasting. This is a good jump start for young khalifah, to practise fasting at this early age teach them the idea of the Ramadan not just to avoid eating but also to practise good deed.



Allhamdulillah, young khalifah find themselves compete each another to collect the most stickers, and this will be reward as "duit raya" before Raya break. :-)








ATFAL also encourage parents to create a simple Ramadan chart @ home to encourage their son/daughter to learn fasting.

Allhamdulilah, with teacher's help and encouragement make the fasting day is fun and interesting journey. Insy'Allah this month of Ramadan will help young khalifah to remember who less fortunate and to learn thankfulness of what given by Allah swt.

Janji Malaikat kepada orang yang berselawat

Rasulullah (s.a.w) bersabda, "Malaikat Jibril, Mikail, Israfil dan Izrail A.S. telah berkata kepadaku."

Berkata Jibril A.S : "Wahai Rasulullah (s.a.w), sesiapa yang membaca selawat ke atasmu tiap-tiap hari sebanyak sepuluh kali, maka akan aku bimbing tangannya dan akan ku bawa dia melintasi titian seperti kilat menyambar."


Berkata pula Mikail A.S : "Mereka yang berselawat ke atas kamu akan aku beri mereka itu minum dari telagamu."


Berkata pula Israfil A.S : "Mereka yang berselawat kepadamu akan aku sujud kepada Allah S.W.T dan aku tidak akan mengangkat kepalaku sehingga Allah S.W.T mengampuni orang itu."



Izrail A.S pula berkata : "Bagi mereka yang berselawat ke atasmu, akan aku cabut ruh mereka itu dengan selembut-lembutnya seperti aku mencabut ruh para nabi-nabi."


Apakah kita tidak cinta kepada Rasulullah (s.a.w)? Para malaikat memberikan jaminan masing-masing untuk orang-orang yang berselawat ke atas Rasulullah (s.a.w)

Mudah-mudahan kita menjadi orang-orang kesayangan Allah, Rasul dan para malaikat. Insy'Allah.

Khalifah Method Teacher's Training @TTDI

Last weekend Teacher's has attended the 2 days course of Khalifah Method Teacher's Training. This time around, the training was conducted @TTDI. For teachers whom have attended the similar training this will be a refresher course for them and whom new in ATFAL will get the chances to learn more about Khalifah Method.

On the first day, The Trainer (Pn. Sharena) mostly touched on the theory of Laws of Learning, Islamic Psychology and Khalifah Method. Basically, Laws of Learning involve what is commonly called reward and punishment.

Some of the tips from Laws of Learning topics we learned :

1. Any behaviour that is followed by reward (reinforcement) will tend to increase in the future.

2. Any behaviour that is followed by punishment will tend to decrease in the future. However Punishment is always harmful to the child even if it seems to achieve the parent's goal.

3. The alternative to punishment should not be permissiveness (meaning to let your child do anything they want), if there is anything more harmful to the child's development than punishment it is permissiveness.

4. The right alternative to punishment in raising a child is called directed positive influence.

We are also reminded that our Responsibility as Khalifah of Allah.

1. To make themselves good! - Its always START from ourself!

2. To help others (society) become good! - Start influence other to practise good deeds.

3. To make the physical world good. (clean and beautiful)!

On the 2nd Day, we had a group activities, eg. creating rules and regulation in class align to Khalifah Method ways. Tpic bellow T. Jun and others were busy throwing ideas for thier team's presentation.

Allhamdulilah by having this training, will help to teachers to understand better the concept of Khalifah Method and Laws of Learning. Insy'Allah upon completion of this traning teacher will have more ideas on how to implement Khalifah MEthod in thier classroom.

Secret of Solat

Ali bin Abi Talib r.a berkata : "Sewaktu Rasullullah (s.a.w) duduk bersama para sahabat muhajirin dan ansar, maka dengan tiba-tiba datanglah satu rombongan orang-orang Yahudi lalu berkata :
"Ya Muhammad, kami hendak bertanya kepada kamu mengenai kalimat-kalimat yang telah diberikan oleh Allah kepada Nabi Musa (a.s) yang tidak diberikan kecuali kepada para Nabi utusan Allah atau malaikat muqarrab."

Lalu Rasullullah (s.a.w) bersabda: "Silakan bertanya."
Berkata orang Yahudi: "Sila terangkan kepada kami tentang 5 waktu yang diwajibkan oleh Allah ke atas umatmu."
Bersabda Rasullullah (s.a.w) :

1. Sembahyang Zuhur semasa waktu tergelincirnya matahari, maka bertasbihlah segala sesuatu kepada tuhanNya"

2. Sembahyang Asar ialah saat ketika Nabi Adam (a.s) memakan buah Khuldi,

3. Sembahyang Maghrib adalah saat Allah menerima taubat Nabi Adam (a.s), maka setiap mukmin yang bersembahyang Maghrib dengan ikhlas kemudian dia berdoa meminta sesuatu pada Allah maka pasti Allah (s.w.t) akan mengkabulkan permintaannya.

4. Sembahyang Isya itu ialah sembahyang yang dikerjakan oleh para Rasul-Rasul sebelumku.

5. Sembahyang Subuh adalah sebelum terbit matahari, ini kerana apabila matahari terbit, terbitnya di antara dua tanduk syaitan dan di situ sujudnya tiap-tiap orang kafir.

Setelah orang Yahudi mendengar penjelasan dari Rasullullah (s.a.w) maka mereka berkata:
"Memang benar apa yang kamu katakan itu Muhammad, katakanlah kepada kami apakah pahala yang akan didapati oleh orang yang sembahyang."

Rasullullah (s.a.w) bersabda:

Jagalah waktu-waktu sembahyang terutama sembahyang yang pertengahan,

1. Sembahyang Zuhur, pada saat itu nyalanya neraka Jahanam, orang mukimin yang mengerjakan sembahyang pada ketika itu akan diharamkan ke atasnya wap api neraka Jahanam pada hari Kiamat.

2. Manakala sembahyang Asar, adalah saat di mana Nabi Adam A.S. memakan buah Khuldi. Orang mukmin yang mengerjakan sembahyang Asar akan diampunkan dosanya seperti bayi yang baru lahir.

3. Sembahyang Maghrib itu adalah saat di mana taubat Nabi Adam A.S. diterima. Seorang mukimin yang ikhlas mengerjakan sembahyang Maghrib kemudian meminta sesuatu dari Allah maka Allah akan perkenankan doanya.

4. Sembahyang Isya' Katakan kubur itu adalah sangat gelap dan begitu juga pada hari Kiamat, maka seorang mukmin yang berjalan dalam malam yang gelap untuk pergi menunaikan sembahyang Isya' berjamaah, Allah (s.w.t) haramkan dari terkena api neraka dan diberinya cahaya untuk menyeberangi titi sirath.

5. Sembahyang Subuh pula, seorang mukmin yang mengerjakan sembahyang subuh selama 40 hari secara berjamaah, diberi oleh Allah S.W.T. dua kebebasan iaitu:
Akan di bebaskan dari api neraka dan dari nifaq.

Menangis kerana Allah s.w.t

Rasulullah (s.a.w) telah bersabda, "Bahawa tidak akan masuk neraka bagi orang yang menangis kerana takut kepada Allah sepertimana air susu kembali ke tempat asalnya."

Dalam sebuah kitab Daqa'iqul Akhbar menerangkan bahawa akan di datangkan seorang hamba pada hari kiamat nanti, dan sangat beratlah timbangan kejahatannya, dan telah di perintahkan untuk di masukkan ke dalam neraka.

Maka salah satu daripada rambut-rambut matanya berkata, "Wahai Tuhanku, Rasul Engkau Nabi Muhammad (s.a.w) telah bersabda, sesiapa yang menangis kerana takut kepada Allah s.w.t, maka Allah mengharamkan matanya itu ke neraka dan sesungguhnya aku menangis kerana amat takut kepada-Mu."


Akhirnya Allah s.w.t mengampuni hamba itu dan menyelamatkannya dari api neraka dengan berkat sehelai rambut yang pernah menangis kerana takut kepada Allah s.w.t .

Dalam sebuah kitab lain, Bidayatul-Hidayah, diceritakan bahwa pada hari kiamat nanti, akan didatangkan neraka jahanam dengan mengeluarkan suaranya, suara nyalaan api yang sangat menggerunkan, semua umat menjadi berlutut kerana kesusahan menghadapinya. Allah s.w.t berfirman yang bermaksud ;

"Kamu lihat (pada hari itu) setiap umat berlutut (yakni merangkak pada lututnya). Tiap-tiap umat diseru kepada buku amalannya. (Dikatakan kepadanya) Pada hari ini kamu dibalasi menurut apa-apa yang telah kau kerjakan." (Surah al-Jatsiyah ayat 28)


Sebaik saja mereka menghampiri neraka, mereka mendengar suara api neraka dengan nyalaan apinya, dan diterangkan dalam kitab tersebut bahwa suara nyalaan api neraka itu dapat didengar sejauh 500 tahun perjalanan.

Pada waktu itu, akan berkata setiap orang hingga Nabi-nabi dengan ucapan, "Diriku, diriku (selamatkanlah diriku Ya Allah) kecuali hanya seorang nabi saja yang akan berkata, "Umatku, umatku."

Beliau ialah junjungan besar kita Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. Pada masa itu akan keluarlah api neraka jahim seperti gunung-gunung, umat Nabi Muhammad s.a.w berusaha menghalanginya dengan berkata, "Wahai api! Demi hak orang-orang yang solat, demi hak orang-orang yang ahli sedekah, demi hak orang-orang yang khusyuk, demi hak orang-orang yang berpuasa, supaya engkau kembali."

Walaupun dikata demikian, api neraka itu tetap tidak mahu kembali, lalu malaikat Jibril berkata, "Sesungguhnya api neraka itu menuju kepada umat Muhammad s.a.w"
Kemudian Jibril membawa semangkuk air dan Rasulullah mengambilnya. Berkata Jibril a.s , "Wahai Rasulullah, ambillah air ini dan siramkanlah kepadanya." Lalu Baginda mengambil dan menyiramkannya pada api itu, maka padamlah api itu.


Setelah itu Rasulullah s.a.w pun bertanya kepada Jibril a.s. "Wahai Jibril, Apakah air itu?" Maka Jibril berkata, "Itulah air mata orang derhaka di kalangan umatmu yang menangis kerana takut kepada Allah s.w.t. Sekarang aku diperintahkan untuk memberikannya kepadamu agar engkau menyiramkan pada api itu." Maka padamlah api itu dengan izin Allah s.w.t.


Telah bersabda Rasulullah s.a.w, " Ya Allah anugerahilah kepada kami dua buah mata yang menangis kerana takut kepada-Mu, sebelum tidak ditemunya air mata."

Pembela di Akhirat (Al Quran)

Abu Umamah r.a. berkata : "Rasulullah S.A.W telah menganjurkan supaya kami semua mempelajari Al-Qur'an, setelah itu Rasulullah S.A.W memberitahu tentang kelebihan Al-Qur'an."

Telah bersabda Rasulullah S.A.W : Belajarlah kamu akan Al-Qur'an, di akhirat nanti dia akan datang kepada ahli-ahlinya, yang mana di kala itu orang sangat memerlukannya."

Ia akan datang dalam bentuk seindah-indahnya dan ia bertanya, " Kenalkah kamu kepadaku?"
Maka orang yang pernah membacanya akan menjawab : "Siapakah kamu?"

Maka berkata Al-Qur'an : "Akulah yang kamu cintai dan kamu sanjung, dan juga telah bangun malam untukku dan kamu juga pernah membacaku di waktu siang hari."



Kemudian berkata orang yang pernah membaca Al-Qur'an itu : "Adakah kamu Al-Qur'an?" Lalu Al-Qur'an mengakui dan memimpin orang yang pernah membaca mengadap Allah S.W.T. Lalu orang itu diberi kerajaan di tangan kanan dan kekal di tangan kirinya, kemudian di letakkan mahkota yg sangat cantik di atas kepalanya.



Pada kedua ibu bapanya (yang muslim) diberi perhiasan yang tidak dapat ditukar dengan dunia walau berlipat ganda, sehingga keduanya bertanya : "Dari manakah kami memperolehi ini semua, pada hal amalan kami tidak sampai ini?"

Lalu di jawab : "Kamu diberi ini semua kerana anak kamu telah mempelajari Al-Qur'an."
