Tazkirah Ramadhan 3 (September 04, 2008)

Abu Sa'id Al Khudri ra. meriwayatkan bahawa Rasulullah SAW bersabda: "Setiap hari siang dan malam pada bulan Ramadhan, Allah Tabaraka wa Taala membebaskan begitu banyak sekali roh daripada api neraka. Dan pada setiap orang Islam pada setiap hari siang dan malam doanya pasti akan diterima."

Fadhilat Sembahyang Terawih Malam Ke 4:
Memperolehi pahala ia sebagaimana pahala orang-orang yang membaca kitab-kitab Taurat, Zabur, Injil dan Al-Quran.

Tazkirah Ramadhan 2 (September 03, 2008)

Ubadah Bin Somit ra. meriwayatkan bahawa Rasulullah SAW bersabda pada suatu hari ketika Ramadhan hampir menjelang: "Telah datang kepadamu bulan Ramadhan, di mana Allah melimpah ruahkan di dalamnya dengan keberkatan, menurunkan rahmat, mengampuni dosa-dosa kamu, memakbulkan doa-doa kamu, melihat di atas perlumbaan kamu untuk memperolehi kebaikan yang besar dan berbangga mengenaimu di hadapan malaikat-malaikat. Maka tunjukkanlah kepada Allah Taala kebaikan dari kamu. Sesungguhnya orang yang bernasib malang ialah dia yang dinafikan daripada rahmat Allah pada bulan ini."

Fadhilat Sembahyang Terawih Malam Ke 3:
Berseru Malaikat di bawah 'Arasy' supaya kami meneruskan sembahyang tarawih terus-menerus semoga Allah mengampunkan dosa engkau.

Tazkirah Ramadhan 1 (September 02, 2008)

Abu Hurairah ra. meriwayatkan bahawa Rasulullah SAW bersabda: "Umatku telah dikurniakan dengan lima perkara yang istimewa yang belum pernah diberikan kepada sesiapa pun sebelum mereka. Bau mulut daripada seorang Islam yang berpuasa adalah terlebih harum di sisi Allah daripada bau haruman kasturi. Ikan-ikan di lautan memohon istighfar (keampunan) ke atas mereka sehinggalah mereka berbuka puasa". Allah mempersiapkan serta menghiasi jannah yang khas setiap hari dan kemudian berfirman kepadanya: "Masanya telah hampir tiba bilamana hamba-hambaKu yang taat akan meninggalkan segala halangan-halangan yang besar (di dunia) dan akan mendatangimu." Pada bulan ini syaitan-syaitan yang durjana dirantaikan supaya tidak menggoda mereka ke arah maksiat-maksiat yang biasa mereka lakukan pada bulan-bulan selain Ramadhan. Pada malam terakhir Ramadhan (orang-orang yang berpuasa ini) akan diampunkan." Maka sahabat-sahabat Rasulullah SAW pun bertanya: "Wahai Pesuruh Allah, adakah itu malam lailatul Qadar?" Dijawab oleh Rasulullah SAW: "Tidak, tetapi selayaknya seorang yang beramal itu diberi balasan setelah menyempurnakan tugasnya."

Fadhilat Solat Terawih:

Malam Pertama:
Keluar dosa-dosa orang mukmin pada malam pertama sepertimana ia baru dilahirkan, mendapat keampunan dari Allah.

Malam Ke 2:
Diampunkan dosa-dosa orang mukmin yang sembahyang tarawih serta kedua ibubapanya (sekiranya mereka orang beriman).

6 People Who Complicate Your Life

THE TYRANNICAL BOSS

Complicates your life by . . . Insisting you're on call 24-7

Simplify your life by . . . Clocking out at 5. And don't forget to lob a cheerful "See you tomorrow" in his direction. "Sometimes you need to manage your boss's expectations," says Gil Schwartz, executive vice president of CBS and Men's Health's Getting Ahead columnist. "That means leaving the office at the same time every day or limiting weekend work." And don't worry about being fired: "If you were doing a bad job, you wouldn't have so much to do."

THE CHATTY COWORKER

Complicates your life by . . . Becoming a permanent fixture at your office door, stifling your ability to IM your friends

Simplify your life by . . . Boring him. Don't engage him, suggests Schwartz. Don't look at him or say anything that might lengthen the conversation. "Eventually he'll stop coming by," Schwartz says.

THE NAGGING MOTHER-IN-LAW

Complicates your life by . . .

Giving you unsolicited advice and hideous ties

Simplify your life by . . . Befriending the enemy. "Most men spend time with their mother-in-law only as part of a couple," says Albert Maslow, Ph.D., a clinical psychologist specializing in men's issues, "but it's important to develop a relationship of your own with her." Maslow suggests taking her to lunch or doing handiwork around her house. At the very least, you'll begin to understand her motivations, Maslow says. And maybe, just maybe, she'll become less of a buttinski.

THE PUSHY SALESMAN

Complicates your life by . . . Trailing you around the store

Simplify your life by . . . Wearing gym shorts. In a California State University study, salespeople approached shoppers dressed in work clothes more quickly than those who were dressed casually.

THE TRAGIC FRIEND

Complicates your life by . . . Complaining incessantly about his pathetic existence

Simplify your life by . . . Telling him a joke, preferably dirty. It'll stop him long enough for you to change the subject, Maslow says. With luck, you'll eventually deprogram him.

THE NE'ER-DO-WELL SIBLING

Complicates your life by . . . Borrowing money and third-wheeling your life

Simplify your life by . . . Shutting him out. Lending him your cash or social life makes you an enabler, Maslow says: "It'll get worse until you cut him off." So apologize, say no, then point him toward Monster.com.
