INSPIRATIVE STORY OF ABDURRAHMAN BIN AUF SAHABAT
If the rizki is measured from hard work ... then the construction laborers who will get rich quickly
If the rizki is determined from work time ... then a 24-hour coffee shop will get more ... maybe even beat KFC and Mc. DONALD
If the rizki belongs to a smart person ... then the lecturer who has a long title who will lbh rich ...
If rizki is because of office ... then the president and rajalah people who will occupy the 100 richest people in the world ...
Rizki is because of God's love.
"Pursuing rizki..jangan chase the amount ... But blessings." (Ali bin Abi Thalib)
EVEN RUN, SUSTENANCE WILL KEEP HEAR
"Even if the son of Adam flees from his sustenance (to keep God's commandments) as he flees from death, his sustenance will chase after him as death will chase him." (Narrated by Ibn Hibban No. 1084)
Poor rich already set up it.
One time the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam said, Abdurrahman bin Auf raa will enter the last paradise because too rich. This is because the richest people will be taken for the longest. So hearing this, Abdul Rahman bin Auf r.a also think hard, how to get back to being poor so as to get into heaven earlier.
After the Tabuk War, the dates in Medina left by friends became rotten. Then the price fell. Abdurrahman bin Auf r.a also sold all his property, then bought all the dates foul of the best friend with a good date palm.
Everything is grateful .. Alhamdulillah .. kurma that feared did not sell, suddenly sold out! Encouraged by Abdurrahman bin Auf. Happy friends. Abdurrahman bin Auf raa was also glad. Another friend is happy because all his wares are sold. Abdurrahman bin Auf r.a happy also because ... hope to fall poor!
SUBHANALLAH .... great
Try if we? Enterprises tested little, already shouted indiscriminately.
Abdurrahman bin Auf raa was very relieved, knowing he was going to go to heaven first, because he was poor.
However .. MASYA ALLAH
God's plan Subhanahu wa ta'ala is indeed the best .. Suddenly, came messengers from Yemen to bring the news, King of Yemen looking for foul currents. Apparently, in Yemen is infecting an outbreak of infectious diseases, and a suitable medicine is KURMA BUSUK! The messenger of King Yemen intends to buy all dates of Abdurrahman bin Auf raa at a price 10 times the price of regular dates.
ALLAH IS THE GREATEST....
Others try hard to get rich. Instead, Abdurrahman bin Auf tried hard to be poor but always failed. True the word of God:
"O people, in the sky there is sustenance for you and all the gifts promised to you." (Q. Adz Dzariat, 22)
So .. that much to give sustenance came from a good date or a rotten date?
Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala is the one who Gives sustenance.
May this story reinforce the spirit within us all, which is being tested in our work and effort, to put God's business first priority over the temporal affairs of this world, aamiin.
The above story is consistent with hadith
From Zaid bin Thabit Radhiyallahu anhu, he heard Rasûlullâh sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:
مَنْ كَانَتِ الدُّنْيَا هَمَّهُ ، فَرَّقَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ أَمْرَهُ ، وَجَعَلَ فَقْرَهُ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ ِ، وَلَمْ يَأْتِهِ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا مَا كُتِبَ لَهُ ، وَمَنْ كَانَتِ الْآخِرَةُ نِيَّـتَهُ ، جَمَعَ اللهُ أَمْرَهُ ، وَجَعَلَ غِنَاهُ فِيْ قَلْبِهِ ، وَأَتَتْهُ الدُّنْيَا وَهِيَ رَاغِمَةٌ.
"Whoever the purpose of his life is the world, then Allâh will scatter his affairs, make purity in both his eyelids, and he does not gain the world except according to the stipulations set forth for him. Whoever is the intention of his life is the Hereafter, Allâh will gather his affairs, make wealth in his heart, and the world will come to him in a contemptible state. "
