Pengenalan

Salah satu perayaan utama yang disambut di Malaysia merupakan Hari Raya Aidilfitri, juga disebut sebagai Hari Raya Puasa. Hari Raya bermaksud “hari perayaan” manakala Aidilfitri adalah terma Melayu untuk Eid ul-Fitr yang bermaksud “perayaan berbuka puasa”. Disambut pada hari pertama bulan Islam ke sepuluh (Syawal) menandakan berakhirnya bulan puasa atau bulan Ramadhan. Oleh kerana kelandar Islam berdasarkan kitaran bulan, tarikh Hari Raya Puasa adalah berbeza setiap tahun. Hari Raya Puasa bukanlah hari pertama Tahun Baru Islam seperti yang disalah anggap oleh kebanyakan orang.

Aspek utama Hari Raya adalah amalan mengucapkan “maaf zahir dan batin” yang bermaksud “maafkan kesalahan saya dari segi fizikal dan rohani”. Aidilfitri bukan hanya masa untuk perayaan tetapi juga masa untuk memperbaiki dan menebus kesalahan yang menjadikan perayaan ini penting serta indah. Hikmah disebalik berpuasa sebulan pada bulan Ramadhan adalah untuk membersihkan seseorang daripada kesalahan yang telah dilakukan. Orang yang beragama Islam digalakkan untuk memaafkan dan melupakan semua perbezaan dan bergembira dengan pembaikan hubungan yang terputus, sebab utama Aidilfitri disambut. Aidilfitri merupakan masa untuk bersyukur dengan aktiviti seperti menziarahi kubur, bersolat di masjid dan kunjung-mengunjungi antara satu sama lain untuk menikmati pelbagai juadah Hari Raya.

Beberapa hari sebelum Hari Raya, adalah perkara biasa untuk menyaksikan masyarakat Islam berpusu-pusu di jalan raya, fenomena yang dikenali di Malaysia sebagai “balik kampung” atau perjalanan balik ke tempat asal masing-masing untuk bersama keluarga. Tikat kapal terbang dan bas selalunya habis ditempah atau dijual pada waktu ini serta kesesakan lalu lintas berlaku di lebuhraya kerana ramai orang pulang ke kampung halaman untuk sambutan ini.

 

Sejarah Hari Raya Aidilfitri

Dikatakan selepas Nabi Muhammad s.a.w berhijrah ke Madinah, beliau mendapati adat tempatan yang menghabiskan dua hari dalam setahun untuk hiburan, rekreasi dan keriangan. Nabi Muhammad s.a.w merasakan hari-hari tersebut lebih baik digunakan dengan cara lebih baik daripada untuk kepuasan diri. Oleh itu, beliau meminta kepada Allah untuk menetapkan dua hari untuk perayaan iaitu Aidilfirti dan Aidil Adha.

Walau bagaimanapun, Hari Raya Aidilfitri bukan semata-mata tentang perayaan dan keramaian, tetapi juga mempunyai maksud rohaniah yang lebih mendalam. Sejarah sambutan ini bermula sejak 610AD apabila Nabi Muhammad s.a.w mendapat visi Malaikat Jibrail semasa beliau bertafakur. Nabi Muhammad s.a.w mencatat ilmu suci yang diajarkan kepada beliau, dipandu oleh Malaikat Jibril. Ilmu ini kemudiannya menjadi sebuah kitab suci yang dipanggil Al-Quran, yang menjadi pegangan orang Islam (penganut agama Islam). Dikatakan bahawa ilmu suci ini diturunkan pada ‘Malam Lailatul Qadar’, salah satu malam ganjil antara 10 malam terakhir bulan Ramadhan.

Kepentingan Hari Raya

Aidilfitri menandakan berakhirnya bulan Ramadhan dan pada hari tersebut larangan-larangan pada bulan Ramadhan berakhir. Berpuasa pada bulan Ramadhan, bulan ke-sembilan mengikut kalendar Islam, merupakan salah satu daripada lima Rukun Islam yang diikuti oleh semua umat Islam. Perayaan Aidilfitri adalah hari umat Islam mengungkapkan rasa syukur kepada Allah s.w.t. dengan puasa, solat dan amal jariah.

Perintah berpuasa pada bulan Ramadhan dinyatakan dalam Al-Quran, dalam Surah 2, Ayat 185:

“(Beberapa hari yang ditentukan itu ialah) bulan Ramadhan, bulan yang di dalamnya diturunkan (permulaan) Al Quran sebagai petunjuk bagi manusia dan penjelasan-penjelasan mengenai petunjuk itu dan pembeda (antara yang hak dan yang bathil). Karena itu, barangsiapa di antara kamu hadir (di negeri tempat tinggalnya) di bulan itu, maka hendaklah ia berpuasa pada bulan itu, dan barangsiapa sakit atau dalam perjalanan (lalu ia berbuka), maka (wajiblah baginya berpuasa), sebanyak hari yang ditinggalkannya itu, pada hari-hari yang lain.”

 

Puasa

Pada bulan Ramadhan, semua umat Islam dari terbit fajar hingga terbenam matahari. Puasa bukan sahaja menahan diri daripada makanan, tetapi juga minuman, menahan diri daripada melakukan hubungan intim atau apa jua perbuatan memuaskan nafsu.

Dipercayai bahawa daripada tingkah laku yang terkawal, seseorang dapat membentuk kawalan diri serta dapat mengawal nafsu. Dengan berbuat demikian, seseorang dapat membersihkan diri serta minda sepanjang bulan yang suci ini. Dalam tempoh berpuasa, umat Islam mengingatkan diri mereka tentang penderitaan orang miskin yang terpaksa berlapar dan dahaga atas desakan hidup. Ini juga merupakan peluang untuk umat Islam merasakan ketenangan yang timbul dalam beribadat kepada Allah s.w.t serta permuafakatan sesama umat Islam.

Berpuasa selama sebulan juga adalah ungkapan hasrat seseorang untuk menjalani kehidupan yang sihat selaras dengan dan doa kepada Allah s.w.t. dengan mengatasi godaan. Terdapat pengecualian dalam perintah berpuasa: orang sakit, orang yang bermusafir, orang tua, wanita hamil dan ibu yang menyusukan anak. Bagi umat Islam yang tergolong dalam kategori ini dibenarkan untuk berbuka puasa dan menggantikannya pada masa lain. Dalam kes di mana mereka tidak mampu untuk menggantikan puasa yang ditinggalkan, mereka mesti memberi makanan kepada orang miskin, juga dipanggil membayar fidyah,untuk setiap hari yang ditinggalkan. Anak-anak muda perlu mula berpuasa pada usia remaja dan ia dianggap satu kaedah untuk mencapai pertumbuhan rohani, walaupun banyak manfaat dari segi kesihatan atau kecergasan.

Di negara Islam seperti Malaysia, kebanyakan kedai makan yang dikendalikan oleh umat Islam tutup pada waktu siang pada bulan Ramadhan. Umat Islam makan hidangan yang dipanggil sahur sebelum matahari terbit, berpuasa tanpa makanan, minuman serta keseronokan pada siang hari dan kemudian berbuka puasa apabila matahari terbenam dengan hidangan yang dipanggil iftar. Iftar biasanya bermula dengan memakan kurma dan minuman manis untuk memberikan tenaga segera diikuti dengan solat pada waktu malam (sembahyang terawih) selepas berbuka puasa.

Selain menjadi satu perayaan kesyukuran dan kesempatan untuk merenung akan kasih yang daripada Allah SWT, renungan rohani juga digalakkan dan seorang individu bermuhasabah tentang kualiti baik dan buruk dalam diri sendiri. Setiap umat Islam menilai semula kekuatan atau kelemahan diri mereka dalam ujian bulan Ramadan. Ini juga masa untuk merenung dua ekstrim antara agama dan materialisme, di mana materialisme mengajar manusia untuk mengambil daripada orang lain, manakala agama pula mengajar tentang memberi kepada Allah dan orang lain, sekali gus memperoleh kebaikan-Nya. Dalam merendahkan diri dan memohon keampunan, seseorang mengambil peluang untuk melakukan perbuatan baik dan amal. Menjadi satu kewajipan orang yang berkemampuan untuk berkongsi sebahagian daripada apa yang mereka ada dengan orang miskin pada masa ini. Pada bulan Ramadhan, umat Islam diwajibkan membayar zakat fitrah bagi diri sendiri serta semua orang yang berada di bawah tanggungannya dengan jumlah gandum yang telah ditetapkan atau jumlah wang yang sama nilainya. Zakat fitrah hanya perlu dibayar setahun sekali pada bulan Ramadhan sehingga sebelum sembahyang Hari Raya bermula.

Pada hari pertama Aidilfitri, Solat Aidilfitri (solat al-Eid)adalah satu kemestian dan sangat digalakkan untuk didirikan secara berjemaah. Ia adalah solat khas sebanyak dua rakaat (unit) dengan tujuh dan lima takbir tambahan Khutbah (pemberitaan awam) dijalankan selepas solat. Ketika khutbah, Imam biasanya mengingatkan jemaah tentang kewajipan mereka terhadap Allah, serta terhadap sesama umat Islam dan bukan Islam. Imam juga akan mengingatkan jemaah untuk berbuat baik dan menahan diri daripada melakukan perbuatan dosa atau jahat. Pada akhir sesi, jemaah akan bersalaman antara satu sama lain, dan menawarkan hadiah yang sesuai untuk kanak-kanak.Berikutan ini perayaan bermula.

  3. Menyediakan kelengkapan untuk kebersihan diri serta dandanan, seperti pakaian dan sebagainya
  4. Mandi selepas solat subuh

Adalah menjadi kebiasaan untuk melihat kaum lelaki memakai songkok di kepala pada Hari Raya.
  7. Memakan sarapan sebelum keluar untuk Solat Hari Raya. Makan sebelum keluar rumah adalah untuk menekankan bahawa bulan Ramadhan telah berakhir. Umat Islam juga dilarang untuk berpuasa pada Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Menjadi adat untuk memakan makanan manis sebagai sarapan, sebaik-baiknya kurma, sebelum menghadiri solat Aidilfitri.
  8. Membayar Zakat (bayaran wajib yang dibayar secara tahunan di bawah undang-undang Islam dan digunakan untuk tujuan keagamaan dan amal) sebelum solat Aidilfitri (solat khas Aidilfitri).
  9. Pergi awal ke masjid.
  10. Menunaikan solat Aidilfitri secara berjemaah di tempat terbuka melainkan cuaca tidak membenarkan disebabkan hujan, salji dan sebagainya.
  11. Menggunakan jalan yang berbeza untuk pergi ke dan pulang dari masjid. Dikatakan sebab perkara ini harus dilakukan sebagai manifestasi syiar Islam di kedua-dua laluan, atau untuk menyatakan peringatan terharap Allah s.w.t.
A beautiful aspect of Hari Raya is that it is also a time for children and family to show gratitude and seek forgiveness for any wrongdoings

    I was infected with Genital Herpes Virus 10 month ago, ever since then i have been searching for cure everywhere because i was feeling so uncomfortable with it. I have been dating for almost 5 years until i contracted Genital Herpes from my ex-boyfriend. since then I became very sad about the whole situation, always going online checking if i could get a cure to Genital Herpes, then i came across so many testimonies. Due to my seriousness and eagerness to be completely cured, i became a victim of fraud after contacting several so-called herbal doctors i was referred to. I lost a lot of money but i didn’t stop searching for a cure. Then one faithful day, i came across a testimony of a lady saying that she got her Genital herpes cured by a Great Herbal Doctor she called Dr iniboku by contacting him through his email address. And she advised anyone with Genital Herpes or Simplex Herpes to contact the herbal doctor for Herbal Cure. I contemplated for about 4 hours whether or not to contact him. then something inside of me told me ‘Nothing good comes easy’. I then contacted him through his email and told him my problem. He told me all the things I needed to do and also gave me instructions to follow, which I did properly. Just within weeks of drinking and applying the herbal medication he sent to me through DHL delivery service, i started seeing changes, i went to my medical doctor for check-up, i was so happy when the doctor told me i was no more having Genital Herpes Virus, it was all tears of Joy from that moment, People think herpes is really a minor skin irritation herpes has a long term effects on health and if i could ever meet a Genuinely Great Herbal Doctor. I’m so grateful to him. i am completely free from Genital Herpes Virus, i introduced a family friend who have Simplex Herpes virus to him, He called me and told me he was also cure completely. I promised to share my own testimony like that of the lady on the internet.

    Mount Emei, built in the 1st century CE, is a 3,099-metre-tall mountain in Sichuan Province, China. It is the highest of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains of China an area of great cultural significance. That’s where Buddhism first became established on Chinese territory and from where it spread widely through the East . Worth visiting this UNESCO World Heritage Site a scenic mountain area which includes over 70 temples, monasteries, and attractions. Emei Shan said to be inhabited since 10,000 years ago according to historians. Visited this awesome mountain years back, seeing it for myself those ancient Buddhist architecture on Emei shan.

    Sasquatch, also known as Bigfoot, is a legendary creature said to inhabit forests, mostly found in the Pacific Northwest region of North America. As described by eye witnesses as a large, hairy, humanoid creature, often reported as being taller than the average human, and covered in dark hair. While many believe in its existence, but there’s no definitive scientific proof. Bigfoot is a figure deeply embedded in the folklore of North America. Despite numerous reports and alleged evidence, there is no conclusive scientific proof of Sasquatch’s existence. Many sightings of these hairy creatures yet no one ever getting close to it . Tibetan high lamas have reported seeing Yetis or bigfoots. Never been doubt these extraordinary creatures do exist as Tibetans, Nepalese, and others believed. Interesting .
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this.

It is also one of the five Buddhist blessed places on earth. Wutaishan holds a very special place in the more than 1,000 years of Buddhist and Chinese history. Manjushri embodies the perfect wisdom of the universe. China is considered to be the Land of Manjushri where the people are blessed with intelligence. Many of the historical and miraculous stories of Wutaishan are recorded in history. From the Ming Dynasty until modern times, magical manifestations have continued to be reported in Wutaishan. Emperor Kangxi was known to be a great patron of the Buddhadharma and had visited Wu Tai Shan and its Gelug temples a number of times . Great masters believed Emperor Kangxi to be the reincarnation of Tulku Drakpa Gyaltsen and an emanation of Manjushri, which has been confirmed by many others. Interesting read indeed, would love to visit this holy place again.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Ani for this great sharing.\\

    Venerable Geshe Lobsang Sopa is an incredible monk with a reputation of being sincere, fiercely devoted to his Gurus and extremely principle. Outspoken known to be very kind, spiritual and be a loyal to the Gelugpa lineage involving efforts to end the Dorje Shugden conflict. He has quietly accomplished virtuous works from building monasteries to serving the highest of lamas. It was a great privilege for writers team to interview Geshe-la during his visit at Kechara Forest Retreat sharing his experiences.
    Thank you Rinpoche and writers team .Well done.

    Documentaries on these mysterious UFO, native Indian lore, ghosts, or unseen beings stories are some of my interests. Reading and watching the videos again as just simply incredible. Same time recorded images of UFO were captured at Mexico. Several sightings were seen by many eye witnesses including pilots, bus drivers and school children then over the years at Mexico. Some even captured it in videos , those sighting could not by explained by many.There’s one even tried to communicate with them as what she said is UFO. She took a number of photos with 3 different cameras to proof what she saw in the sky. Amazing the Dorthy had then attracted many UFO enthusiasm with her 3 thousands pictures. All these mysterious UFO sighting cannot be explained and solved.
    Interesting, thank you Rinpoche for sharing.

    The Guru Yoga of Lama Tsongkhapa is a very powerful practice, combination of Manjushri, Chenrezig and Vajrapani. We are so fortunate to receive this sacred practice from H E Tsem Rinpoche. Je Rinpoche is an emanation of Manjushri, Avalokitesvara and Vajrapani together, also an emanation of Maitreya Buddha. As explained clearly in this post we should practice as how busy we are. Ever since I started this Guru Yoga of Lama Tsongkhapa practice , my life changed ….having a calm mind , will never gave up. Its such an amazing practice for every one.
    Thank you Rinpoche with folded hands.

    Revisit this post again. A group of Kecharians had made extensive offerings to HH Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche and updated all activities at Kechara Forest Retreat. Even brought a photo album of Kechara’s departments . That’s awesome. Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche received offerings from Beng Kooi on behalf of HE Tsem Rinpoche. In return Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche offered a stunning blessed Amitayus as shown in the blog for HE Tsem Rinpoche. Our individual samaya to our gurus is very important. Our Guru H E Tsem Rinpoche previous incarnations had close connections with Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche. It’s about maintaining a pure and respectful relationship with the guru and diligently following their instructions. The greatness of a Guru cannot be expressed in words. Let no man in the world live in delusion. Without a Guru none can cross over to the other shore.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing.

    For traditional Tibetan Buddhists, acceptance of and relationship with unseen beings is essential to living a full and successful human life.Relating to unseen beings, whether divine, or spiritual, is considered important across many cultures and belief systems for various reasons. Different cultures have their own belief .This connection can foster a more meaningful and fulfilling life by acknowledging the unseen dimensions of reality and their potential influence on our lives. Many believe that unseen beings like a spirit guides, whom might offer guidance, protection, and support in navigating life’s challenges. Connecting with the unseen realm can lead to a deeper understanding of oneself. Some find that engaging with the unseen world provides a sense of meaning and purpose in life depending to how they could accept. Many cultures have rich traditions and stories surrounding unseen beings. They play a significant role in Tibetan Buddhist practice, influencing both personal well-being and the wider world. Practitioners actively engage with these beings through various rituals, prayers, offerings, and visualizations. These interactions aim to establish positive relationships, seek guidance. The concept of unseen beings has practical implications in Tibetan medicine.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Professor Reginald Ray for sharing this

People with depression often experience fatigue and a lack of energy, making even simple tasks feel overwhelming. Learning and practicing Dharma will be a good choice, transforming our mind happiness with follow. Practice of Guru Yoga of Je Tsongkhapa with meditation ,recitation of mantras and proper visualization is very powerful practice for us .

    Doing Dharma work and Dharma practice actively engaging with Buddhist teachings in daily life helps us to cultivate wisdom and compassion, ultimately aiming for liberation from suffering. The purpose of Dharma practice is to enable us to attain permanent liberation from lower rebirth. Practicing and putting into action helps to purify the mind and one’s conduct should be the conduct of a pure mind. We have to chase and transform those ordinary actions of our day into dharma practice. Well its important applying Buddhist principles to all aspects of life, from work and relationships to thoughts and actions. All depends on our own efforts to learn, practice, our diligence, our deeper knowing, and our correct motivation.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

The Unknown

The Known and unknown are both feared,
Known is being comfortable and stagnant,
The unknown may be growth and opportunities,
One shall never know if one fears the unknown more than the known.
Who says the unknown would be worse than the known?
But then again, the unknown is sometimes worse than the known. In the end nothing is known unless we endeavour,
So go pursue all the way with the unknown,
because all unknown with familiarity becomes the known.
~Tsem Rinpoche

  • What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    8 years ago
    What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    Sick animals are more profitable... farms calculate how close to death they can keep animals without killing them. That's the business model. How quickly they can be made to grow, how tightly they can be packed, how much or how little can they eat, how sick they can get without dying... We live in a world in which it's conventional to treat an animal like a block of wood. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
