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.

  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.

    In Tibetan Buddhism, refuge and the guru are closely intertwined. Taking refuge in the three jewels expresses the most fundamental connection to Buddhism. Having confronted the limitations of samsara, we are ready for a change. Taking refuge involves seeking protection and guidance from the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha, with the guru often seen as a living embodiment of these three jewels. The guru’s role is to guide practitioners towards enlightenment by pointing them to the path and helping them overcome obstacles. Refuge is not merely a symbolic act but a deep commitment to transforming one’s mind and life by relying on these sources of inspiration and guidance. Taking refuge doesn’t protect us from problems such as illness, accidents, and other difficulties. Rather, it provides us with knowledge to transform obstacles into opportunities. We learn how to relate to difficulties in a new way, and this protects us from confusion and despair. Reading again to understand better .

    Reading through this blog of what life was like for Pastor Jean Ai, during lockdown. The Movement Control Order which began in 2020 reminded me of how I went through during the lock down. Staying alone by myself as the rest of my family member outstation in KL. Not easy after all everything as such as getting foods etc. I do my shopping twice a week having doing all the necessary disinfection and so on. What I did at home during the lock down and how I spent my time, days indeed not easy Do reading, watching videos at Tsem Rinpoche blog , learning and practicing and in-fact did full prostration and mantras recitation daily . It had changed my life since then and had completed 100k . Through a Dharma brother I managed to get hold of some mantras for rolling too. Interesting,…..watching Pastor Jean Ai’s video at how she interact with friends that’s awesome.

    n Tibetan Buddhism, prostrations are a way to express deep respect and devotion to the Three Jewels for the Buddha, his teachings (Dharma), and the spiritual community (Sangha). Prostration is a physical act of deep reverence or worship, which offers a range of benefits across spiritual, physical, and mental domains. It can be a form of prayer, a means of expressing devotion. It is a deeply symbolic act that purifies negative actions, accumulates merit, and cultivates humility and compassion. It can be a form of prayer, a means of expressing devotion. This act is believed to be beneficial for practitioners, cultivating humility, eliminating negative thoughts, and accumulating positive karma which is believed to lead to positive future outcomes and spiritual progress. Whether we believe in karma or not, our negative karma increases without purification. Hence its important , to purify our negative karma through the Vajrasattva and prostrations practice. It also seen as a way to purify our negative mind, emotions and thought patterns, such as pride and ego if we do it well . Thus, the practice of purification is one of the most important solutions to our problems and is extremely necessary for everyone of us. It is more important to put our everyday life’s effort into the practice of purification to attain spiritual realization.
    The Vajrasattva purification practice, which is more powerful than negative karma. With this practice can prevent us from experiencing the problems that negative karma would otherwise bring us. Reciting the Vajrasattva mantra before going to bed to prevent whatever negative karma we have created that day from multiplying it is an incredibly powerful method that it makes our life very light and easy and keeps us happy and peaceful in our inner life.
    Both Vajrasattva practice and prostrations done with good visualizations are indeed very beneficial for practitioners.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great sharing and teachings .

    Du Fu (712-770 AD), also known as Tu Fu, was a prominent Chinese poet of the Tang Dynasty, often considered one of the greatest alongside Li Bai. He was a poet-historian and a poet-sage, known for his realistic depictions of human suffering and reflections on the troubled times of his era.

    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing of a Great Lama

    H H Kyabje Pabongka Dechen Nyingpo is by far one of the most popular and influential Gelug religious figures of the 20th Century. One of Phabongkha’s most important aristocratic students, Lhalu Lhacham Yangdzom Tsering relationship to her teacher and his lineage teachings goes along way .She is famously remembered for is her unwavering devotion towards her guru, HH Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche. Yangdzom Tsering’s Shatra family were ancient sponsors and students of the Gelug tradition and had apparently been patrons of Tsongkhapa the founder of the Gelug school. The life stories of Lady Lhalu Lhacham Yangdzom as mentioned by Joona Repo is indeed inspiring. How her life struggles with tragedies, and her devotion to dorje Shugden and the Gelug tradition throughout her life.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great sharing of an inspiring lady.

    Looking at these pictures remained me of my first pilgrimage to Wu Tai San. With the blessings of our guru, we able to visit Wu Tai San a significant Buddhist pilgrimage site . In fact it never did come to my mind that I am fortunate given a chance to go as I am still very new then. Upon hearing about the pilgrimage I got myself register without much thought. The history and stories of Wu Tai San has inspired me to go there. Interesting the Emperors Kangxi and Qianlong of China are closely connected to WuTai San. Wu Tai San located in Shanxi Province, China renowned as the home of Lord Manjushri the bodhisattva of wisdom, with different emanations of the bodhisattva residing on each of the five peaks. The area is dotted with over 50 temples and monasteries, many of which are historical and architecturally significant. Those temples built over 7 dynasties housing numerous Buddhist relics. Wutai Shan also offers stunning scenery, including snow-capped peaks, forests, and streams. Wu Tai San is one of the four Sacred Buddhist mountains of China, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Wutai Shan was known to be a mystical and sacred site inhabited by divine spirits, accompanied by unusual events, such as miraculous light appearances at night.
    We visited all the Holy sites, making offerings and doing prayers at each sites. We even have the opportunity to collect holy stones for future statue insertion or to keep on our altars. Times flies as our pilgrimage ended with so many stories to share with the rest.
    Thank you Rinpoche and writes team sharing those pictures.

    Padmasambhava, the Lotus-born Guru, also known as Guru Rinpoche is a legendary tantric Buddhist master who is widely revered in Tibetan Buddhism. He is seen as the second Buddha particularly within the Nyingma .He was a legendary Indian Buddhist mystic credited with introducing Vajrayana Buddhism to Tibet in the 8th century. As found in Buddhist scriptures Padmasambhava birth is often associated with legends and prophecies. Interesting…… Padmasambhava is depicted with eight manifestations, each reflecting a different aspect of his miraculous activities. Interesting article .
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Milarepa Cave, situated high in the Himalayan mountain of Tibet, a sacred cave beckons pilgrims and spiritual seekers from across the globe. Milarepa Cave, a site of profound significance in Tibetan Buddhism, is merely a geological wonder. This sacred cave is also a living testament to the power of meditation and devotion. Its where an 11th-century yogi and poet who spent transformative years in solitary practice. Milarepa Cave graces Tibet’s rugged yet stunning landscapes, a region renowned for its deep spiritual heritage and breath-taking natural beauty. The cave’s importance is inseparable from a revered figure and the enduring legacy of Jetsun Milarepa a revered yogi and poet in Tibetan Buddhism. Milarepa Cave stands not just as a geological formation but as a powerful symbol of spiritual transformation and the enduring strength of Tibetan Buddhism. Reading this interesting cave had me Google for more information about this sacred cave. Numerous stories and legends surround Milarepa’s time in the cave, enhancing its mystical aura.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this interesting post.

    I wanted to take a moment to share a recent experience with you regarding my Instagram account. Unfortunately, my account was hacked, which was both frustrating and disappointing. Losing access to something that plays a significant role in my business and personal connections was incredibly stressful.What made the situation even more challenging was discovering that Meta does not have a dedicated support team to assist users facing account compromises. With so many people experiencing this issue daily, it’s alarming that their recovery process is not more accessible or efficient.After numerous failed attempts to recover my account through Meta’s standard procedures, I was fortunate enough to get in touch with a member of the Meta recovery department, @Rothsteincode on X (formerly Twitter), and via email at rothsteincode@gmail.com Their expertise and guidance were invaluable, and thanks to their assistance, I was able to regain full access to my account.
    While I am incredibly grateful for their help, this experience has highlighted a major issue—Meta needs to implement better security measures and provide more reliable support for users dealing with these kinds of problems. The lack of direct customer support is unacceptable, considering how vital social media platforms have become for businesses and individuals alike.I wanted to share this with you in case you or anyone you know ever faces a similar issue. If you ever find yourself in this unfortunate situation, I highly recommend reaching out to @Rothsteincode for assistance. Hopefully, Meta will take action to improve their security policies and customer service in the near future.Thank you for taking the time to read this. Stay safe online, and let’s continue to support each other in this digital space.

    A great history of a great yogi which I do enjoy reading , reading over it again and again. Jetsun Milarepa was a famous Tibetan siddha, known as a murderer when he was a young man. Who later turning to Buddhism and becoming a highly accomplished Buddhist disciple. Generally considered as one of Tibet’s most famous yogis and spiritual poets, whose teachings are known among several schools of Tibetan Buddhism. Milarepa’s story is one of struggle, anguish, resolve, and triumph all of which make him recognizably. Practicing these teachings for many years in isolated mountain retreats in caves such as caves hidden deep in the mountains of Tsum Valley. That’s where Milarepa attained enlightenment and gained fame for his incredible perseverance in practice and for his spontaneous songs of realisation. Milarepa is said to be the first to achieve the state of Vajradhara in one lifetime. That’s incredible.
    Thank you Rinpoche for great sharing interesting read

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.

    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
