Cangkir Tindih Merah Putih Cerita Motivasi dan Inspirasi Nomor 1

Subuh buta belum tersentuh matahari dinginpun masih menusuk. Tapi, anak-anak di desaku termasuk aku. Akan segera berangkat ke sekolah yang jauh seberang desa ini dan kami harus melewati sungai yang memisahkannya. Namun, tak ada benda melayang diatasnya yang memisahkan sungai. Jadi, setiap akan berangkat kami harus membawa sebuah kayu panjang yang ujungnya pipih dan agak lebar, sendiri karena harus menggunakan perahu kecil yang terbuat dari pohon rotan dan hanya dapat memuat 1 atau 2 orang saja. Bisa juga memuat 3-4 orang jika perahunya agak besar.

Biasanya teman-temanku menjemputku. “Tapi, kenapa hari ini mereka tak menjemput?” aku bergumam dalam hati. “Ya sudahlah, mungkin mereka lupa karena terburu-buru” pikirku tidak memasalahkannya. Aku lari terbirit-birit menyusul teman-temanku, hampir aku melupakan sesuatu yang penting untuk mengarungi sungai dengan perahu ”dayung…ya…dayung” aku merasa ada yang kurang.

Saat di sungai, teman-temanku sudah sampai di tengah sungai sedang aku masih ditepi. “Hei….tunggu aku” ku panggil mereka, tapi tak ada yang dengar. segera ku dayung perahuku menyusul mereka, ku dayung begitu cepatnya, hingga akhirnya”…byuuuuuuuuur…..tolong…tolong…” terceburlah sudah aku ke sungai.

Islamic Swimwear For The Active Muslimah

by Gabriel Perez All these year's Muslim females have faced the issue of finding a suitable swimwear which adheres to the Koran, which needs a lady to cover everything except her hands, face and feet. The swimwear available in the market were either not targeted for the Muslim women as they led to show of skin or were theoretical for swimming. To aptly describe how uncomfortable the Muslim swimwear designed for Muslimahs was I shall quote Aheda Zanetti who wrote to the National Geographic News saying "As an active Muslim women, I found it tough to take part in most sports, because of the excess garments we were wearing. And the veil very unpractical while playing sports".

People of The Book & The Muslims

by Harun Yahya Islam is a religion of peace, love and tolerance. Today, however, some circles have been presenting a false image of Islam, as if there were conflict between Islam and the adherents of the two other monotheistic religions. Yet Islam's view of Jews and Christians, who are named "the People of the Book" in the Koran, is very friendly and tolerant. This attitude towards the People of the Book developed during the years of the birth of Islam. At that time, Muslims were a minority, struggling to protect their faith and suffering oppression and torture from the pagans of the city of Mecca. Due to this persecution, some Muslims decided to flee Mecca and shelter in a safe country with a just ruler. The Prophet Muhammad told them to take refuge with King Negus, the Christian king of Ethiopia.

The Prophet of Islam - His Biography

by Muhammad Hamidullah IN the annals of men, individuals have not been lacking who conspicuously devoted their lives to the socio-religious reform of their connected peoples. We find them in every epoch and in all lands. In India, there lived those who transmitted to the world the Vedas, and there was also the great Gautama Buddha; China had its Confucius; the Avesta was produced in Iran. Babylonia gave to the world one of the greatest reformers, the Prophet Abraham (not to speak of such of his ancestors as Enoch and Noah about whom we have very scanty information). The Jewish people may rightly be proud of a long series of reformers: Moses, Samuel, David, Solomon, and Jesus among others. 2. Two points are to note: Firstly these reformers claimed in general to be the bearers each of a Divine mission, and they left behind them sacred books incorporating codes of life for the guidance of their peoples. Secondly there followed fratricidal wars, and massacres and genocides became the order...
