Jihad on it's own
Assalamualaikum,
For myself, when i talk about "Jihad".
It's such a big words.
And what i understood about jihad is these thing only related to holy-war or military action.
Like others always said... Jihad di jalan Allah.
And those who in action towards jihad, being called as "Mujahid".
For that, i know i'm not one of them.
Forever.
After the #Parisattack story about two weeks ago, the words of jihad seems very interesting to me.
Others than ISIS thing.
So, i start googling and investigate about it.
You see i found that, jihad/ jahadu is a very manipulated influence words.
It's basically more towards those who struggling and striving towards God.
As per say,
Commit in the way of Allah.
For ISIS things, when they spread they been jihad,
I can directly sound that jihad is a bad jihad.
Because the truly jihad is expecting something good will happened for both side.
If they start killing innocent society, it's not jihad.
It's revenges!
And Islam prohibited this revenges things.
Keep on reading, when i alert that jihad have many division.
Then the most i like is Jihad al Nafs.
Battling against yourself, the ego and psyche...
Atau dikenali sebagai jihad ke atas diri sendiri.
Looks quiet easy, but watch your mouth!
It's more difficult than do a shopping complex.
Yup.
Mostly when i'm must struggling with my inner soul.
Even in simple things, some case that can be called jihad.
I remember when some vendors at my workplace invited us for a small dining event.
And they just said come along, chill out.
Some other Muslim colleague is going,
Makan free kat tempat high class, who don't want?
But,
I politely declined and at the end i'm happy with my own decision because i heard they served some alcoholic drink.
Astagfirullah al azim.
Same situation when they also invited me along for Karaoke session.
I also decline, and which it's fine for me when they said don't want gathering me for next event.
Like i care?
Because i will gladly to say,
There are plenty places where i can socialize that fits everyone.
But with whom i will socialize is more important.
Please respect my right.
