MY FAVOURITE VERSE IN AL-QURAN: وَتَحْسَبُهُمْ أَيْقَاظًۭا وَهُمْ رُقُودٌۭ ۚ وَنُقَلِّبُهُمْ

ذَاتَ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَذَاتَ ٱلشِّمَالِ ۖ وَكَلْبُهُم بَـٰسِطٌۭ ذِرَاعَيْهِ بِٱلْوَصِيدِ ۚ لَوِ ٱطَّلَعْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ لَوَلَّيْتَ مِنْهُمْ فِرَارًۭا وَلَمُلِئْتَ مِنْهُمْ رُعْبًۭا

(سورة الكهف : ١٨)

MEANING: And you would have thought they were awake,1 though they were asleep. We turned them over, to the right and left, while their dog stretched his forelegs at the entrance. Had you looked at them, you would have certainly fled away from them, filled with horror.

(Surah Al-Kahf : 18)

Hadith Jibril, the second hadith in Imam Al-Nawawi’s Forty Hadith, is one of the most comprehensive and fundamental hadiths in Islam. This narration provides a detailed summary of the core aspects of the religion, covering the essentials of Islam (outward practices), Iman (faith), and Ihsan (spiritual excellence).

THE MORAL THAT WE CAN GAIN FROM THIS HADITH

1) Holistic View of Islam:

Hadith Jibril teaches that Islam is a holistic way of life, combining three dimensions:

• Islam (practices): The physical acts of worship like prayer, fasting, and charity.

• Iman (faith): The inner beliefs and doctrines such as belief in Allah, angels, and the hereafter.

• Ihsan (excellence): The spiritual state of worshipping Allah as if one sees Him, which emphasizes sincerity and moral consciousness in all actions.

2) Importance of Actions and Faith:

The hadith shows the balance between external actions (Islam) and internal faith (Iman). It is not enough to just believe without practicing or to practice without sincere faith. Both are intertwined in the life of a Muslim.

3) Spiritual Excellence (Ihsan):

The concept of Ihsan encourages Muslims to strive for excellence in everything they do by being conscious of Allah’s constant presence. It emphasizes sincerity and perfecting one’s actions, whether in acts of worship or daily life.

4) The Reality of the Unseen:

Belief in things unseen—like the Day of Judgment, angels, and destiny—reminds believers that life is not limited to the physical world. This encourages humility, patience, and responsibility in one’s actions.

5) Awareness of the End Times:

The hadith also includes a discussion about the signs of the Day of Judgment, reminding Muslims of the temporality of this world and the importance of preparing for the Hereafter through righteous actions.

This means fully believing that Allah exists, is one, and has complete power over everything.

-*Tauhid Rububiyyah*: Believing that only Allah creates, controls, and provides for everything in the universe.

-*Tauhid Uluhiyyah*: Believing that we should worship only Allah, and no one else.

-*Tauhid Asma wa Sifat*: Believing in the names and qualities of Allah as described in the Quran and by the Prophet.

2. Belief in Angels:

The second pillar of faith is to believe in the existence of angels as unseen beings created by Allah who follow His commands.

**10 main angels and their duties*:

1.*Jibril*: Delivers Allah's messages to prophets.

2.*Mikail*: Controls weather and provides sustenance.

3.*Israfil*: Blows the trumpet on Judgment Day.

4.*Izrail*: Takes people's souls (angel of death).

5.*Munkar*: Questions the dead in the grave.

6.*Nakir*: Helps Munkar question the dead.

7.*Raqib*: Records good deeds.

8.*Atid*: Records bad deeds.

9.*Malik*: Guardian of Hell.

10.*Ridwan*: Guardian of Heaven.

Angels are created from light (nur) and are unseen beings that cannot be detected by our senses unless they take on a visible form. Believing in angels is part of believing in the unseen.

In a hadith from Ibn Mas'ud RA, the Prophet Muhammad SAW said about the verse (An-Najm: 13): "I saw Jibril at Sidratul Muntaha, he had six hundred wings with jewels and gems of different colors falling from his feathers."

3.*Belief in Kitab*

• Zabur to Prophet Daud.

• Taurat to Prophet Musa.

• Injil to Prophet Isa.

• Qur’an to Prophet Muhammad

-*Kitab Allah** refers to the words of Allah revealed to His prophets and messengers.

- These books contain laws and guidance to lead humanity on the right path, pleasing to Allah.

The Qur’an as a guide for Muslims, containing Allah’s final revelations, protected from distortion until the Day of Judgment.

A hadith encourages reading the Qur’an, as it will provide intercession (syafaat) on the Day of Judgment.

1. Anbiyah: Prophets chosen by Allah to guide people, such as Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. Many prophets were sent throughout history.

2. Rasul: Messengers who brought new laws and scriptures, like Moses with the Torah, Jesus with the Gospel, and Muhammad (PBUH) with the Quran. Every Rasul is a prophet, but not all prophets are messengers.

Muhammad (PBUH) is the final messenger. This belief highlights Allah's continuous guidance to humanity.

[2]Qada refers to Allah's overall plan and decree, encompassing everything that happens in creation.

Qadar refers to Allah’s precise measurement and implementation of that plan, meaning that everything happens according to His will and wisdom.

This belief teaches that while humans have free will to make choices, everything ultimately occurs within Allah’s divine plan. It encourages trust in Allah’s wisdom, especially during hardship or uncertainty.

[3]Belief in Qiyamah (the Day of Judgment) is a fundamental part of Islamic faith. It refers to the belief that, at the end of time, all people will be resurrected and judged by Allah based on their deeds in this life.

On this day, everyone will be held accountable, and their actions will determine whether they enter Paradise (Jannah) or Hell (Jahannam). It is a day when justice will be served, and every soul will receive what they deserve. This belief encourages Muslims to live righteously and be mindful of their actions.

1. What is Iḥsān?

Iḥsān means "excellence" or "perfection" in worship and behavior. It involves performing good deeds with sincerity and being mindful that God is always watching. It's about striving for the highest level of faith, where one worships as if seeing God or knowing He is observing us.

2. What is Eschatology?

Eschatology refers to the study of the end times, death, the Day of Judgment, and the afterlife. It teaches about the fate of humanity, the resurrection, and accountability for one’s actions in this world.

What I Gained:

Iḥsān reminds me to practice my faith with sincerity and strive for excellence in every action.

Understanding Eschatology made me more aware of the afterlife, encouraging me to live responsibly and prepare for what comes after death.

This session helped me reflect on current issues, seeing how they relate to the end times and the importance of living with purpose.
