- al-ansar - Social Mention: U.S. Says Dozens of Americans Have Sought to Join Rebels in Syria Dozens of Americans have traveled or tried to travel to Syria to fight with the rebels against the government of President Bashar al-Assad since 2011, American intelligence officials said Wednesday. The Americans are a small subset of the mostly radicalized young Muslims with Western passports who are entering Syria from Europe, North America and Australia, a group that numbers roughly 600, according to the officials and classified estimates from Western spy agencies. That represents a fraction of the roughly 6,000 to 11,000 foreign fighters over all who have poured into Syria by way of the Middle East and North Africa. The Americans' numbers are small — intelligence officials would not be more precise than saying "dozens" were involved — and they have so far not distinguished themselves on the battlefield. But they are part of what officials said was a growing presence of foreigners who are fighting Mr. Assad's government. "It's a very steady increase, and I expect that to continue as long as the fighting there continues," a senior American intelligence official said. He was one of four intelligence officials who spoke in a wide-ranging background briefing for reporters who had requested information on the most current assessments by American and other Western spy agencies of foreigners fighting in Syria, including how they are recruited, trained and financed. The influx of young Muslims with Western passports into Syria has raised fears among American and European intelligence officials of a new terrorist threat when the fighters return home. In Syria, the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria has emerged as the leader in attracting foreign fighters as it exploits the chaos of the civil war and tries to lay the groundwork for an Islamic state. The group has repeatedly clashed with other rebel brigades, including another group aligned with Al Qaeda, the Nusra Front. Mr. Assad has foreign fighters of his own helping his army, though in smaller numbers than those battling his government, American officials said. Hezbollah, the Lebanese Shiite militant group, has sent armed followers to fight in Syria, as has Iran's Quds Force. In addition to these two Islamic extremist groups, the American officials said "migrant brigades," which do not have the strict vetting requirements of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria or Nusra to weed out Western spies, are also proliferating. Among the best known of these emerging units is Jaish al-Muhajireen wal-Ansar, a group that actively recruits armed followers from Central Asia and Europe, often using Twitter, online training videos and other social media, the officials said. While the intelligence officials said there had not yet been any confirmed cases of foreign fighters carrying out attacks in their home countries upon their return — most of those suspected militants are still in Syria — it is the militants from groups like Jaish, they say, that pose the greatest threat when they come home. One American, Nicole Lynn Mansfield, 33, of Flint, Mich., a convert to Islam, was killed in May while in the company of Syrian rebels in Idlib Province. Another, Eric Harroun, 30, a former Army soldier from Phoenix, was indicted in Virginia by a federal grand jury this year on charges related to allegations that he fought alongside the Nusra Front. In September, he pleaded guilty to a lesser charge involving conspiracy to transfer defense articles and services, and was released from custody. In February, Mr. Harroun bragged about his involvement, posting a photo on his Facebook page saying, "Downed a Syrian Helicopter then Looted all Intel and Weapons! http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/21/world/middleeast/us-says-dozens-of-americans-have-sought-to-join-rebels-in-syria.html?_r=0 [1 Aktualisierung]

- islam fatwa - Social Mention: President Obama Declares The Future Must Not Belong to Practicing Christians By: Erick Erickson (Diary) September 25th, 2012 at 11:20 AM 205 RESIZE: AAA In his speech to the United Nations General Assembly today the President of the United States declared that the future does not belong to practicing Christians. Already, the media and the left are in full denial, probably based on their general lack of understanding of theology. This would have been a gaffe had Mitt Romney said it. But with Barack Obama, he's just speaking bold truths. His bold truth declares that the future does not belong to practicing Christians. Pay careful attention to what he says. The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam. Yet to be credible, those who condemn that slander must also condemn the hate we see when the image of Jesus Christ is desecrated, churches are destroyed, or the Holocaust is denied. Let us condemn incitement against Sufi Muslims, and Shiite pilgrims. It is time to heed the words of Gandhi: "Intolerance is itself a form of violence and an obstacle to the growth of a true democratic spirit." Together, we must work towards a world where we are strengthened by our differences, and not defined by them. That is what America embodies, and that is the vision we will support. Now, that's the full paragraph so no one can claim I took him out of context. But consider this. It is an orthodox Christian belief that Mohammed is not a prophet. Actual Christians, as opposed to many of the supposed Christians put up by the mainstream media, believe that Christ is the only way to salvation. Believing that is slandering Mohammed. That's just a fact. If you don't believe me, you go into the MIddle East and proclaim Christ is the way, the truth, and the life and see what happens to your life. Then Barack Obama went on to say "Yet to be credible, those who condemn that slander must also condemn the hate we see when the image of Jesus Christ is desecrated, churches are destroyed, or the Holocaust is denied." Note he says we cannot "slander the prophet of Islam" but it's only the image of Christ in the next sentence — not actually Christ himself desecrated. If this is so, why does Barack Obama's government continue funding the National Endowment for the Arts, which funded Christ in piss, the Virgin Mary painted in dung, etc.? Now, in point of fact, this is a major difference between Islam and Christianity. Christ came to this world as an enemy of the world and expected to be impugned. He also tells his followers that they should expect to be impugned. There is joy in being persecuted for following the Risen Lord. In Islam, if you impugn Mohammed, you get a fatwa on your butt. And then there is the first amendment. The President of the United States tried to have it both ways in his speech. I know there are some who ask why we don't just ban such a video. The answer is enshrined in our laws: our Constitution protects the right to practice free speech. Here in the United States, countless publications provoke offense. Like me, the majority of Americans are Christian, and yet we do not ban blasphemy against our most sacred beliefs. Moreover, as President of our country, and Commander-in-Chief of our military, I accept that people are going to call me awful things every day, and I will always defend their right to do so. Americans have fought and died around the globe to protect the right of all people to express their views – even views that we disagree with. We do so not because we support hateful speech, but because our Founders understood that without such protections, the capacity of each individual to express their own views, and practice their own faith, may be threatened. We do so because in a diverse society, efforts to restrict speech can become a tool to silence critics, or oppress minorities. We do so because given the power of faith in our lives, and the passion that religious differences can inflame, the strongest weapon against hateful speech is not repression, it is more speech – the voices of tolerance that rally against bigotry and blasphemy, and lift up the values of understanding and mutual respect. I know that not all countries in this body share this understanding of the protection of free speech. Yet in 2012, at a time when anyone with a cell phone can spread offensive views around the world with the click of a button, the notion that we can control the flow of information is obsolete. The question, then, is how we respond. And on this we must agree: there is no speech that justifies mindless violence. Just words, Mr. President? You say "there is no speech that justifies mindless violence," but all last week you condemned a ridiculous video trailer for a movie that does not exist. Your government ran advertisements in Pakistan denouncing the video. What of free speech, Mr. President? Last week you were saying the violence was understandable given the offensive film and this week you are trying to claim it was mindless. Oh wait, you did it again in the same speech where you said "there is no speech that justifies mindless violence": At times, the conflicts arise along the fault lines of faith, race or tribe; and often they arise from the difficulties of reconciling tradition and faith with the diversity and interdependence of the modern world. In every country, there are those who find different religious beliefs threatening; in every culture, those who love freedom for themselves must ask how much they are willing to tolerate freedom for others. That is what we saw play out the last two weeks, as a crude and disgusting video sparked outrage throughout the Muslim world. Time and again the President of the United States tries to have it both ways. But are they just words? The fact is, many religions do not recognize Mohammed as a prophet. In the widest swath of Islam, that denial is, in and of itself, slander. So what exactly are you saying Mr. President? As an exit point, with all of President Obama's statements on tolerance in his speech, we should remember that tolerance is really not a Christian virtue. As Archbishop Chaput of Philadelphia noted, "We need to remember that tolerance is not a Christian virtue. Charity, justice, mercy, prudence, honesty — these are Christian virtues. And obviously, in a diverse community, tolerance is an important working principle. But it's never an end itself." The Archbishop also noted that evil preaches tolerance until it is dominate and then it seeks to silence good. That's not a statement that the President is evil in any way, shape, or form, but we should be mindful when the secular world demands tolerance for all, tolerance for all means we cannot have standards of faith to live by, because those standards obviously require we be intolerant of sins this world has embraced.

- abu adam - Social Mention: SHOLAT DHUHA, ITU PERLU GAK SIH ? Siapa yang istiqomah melaksanakan Shalat DHUHA Insya Allah, Allah SWT akan menjamin baginya dengan jaminan istimewa di dunia dan akhirat. Shalat Dhuha, shalat sunat pada pagi hari kira2 pukul 7-11 Rakaatnya bisa 2 sampai 12 rakaat ... A. MENGAPA KITA DISUNNAHKAN SHALAT DHUHA ? .. 1.Wasiat Baginda Rasulullah SAW ... dari Abu Hurairah, "Kekasihku (Nabi Muhammad) mewasiatkan kepadaku untuk berpuasa tiga hari dalam tiap bulan, melakukan dua rakaat sholat Dhuha dan melakukan sholat witir sebelum tidur." (HR. Bukhari Muslim) Jadi Shalat ini merupakan kebiasaan Rasulullah yg patut kita ikuti 2.Sedekah untuk tiap ruas tulang kita ... Dari Abu Dzar radhiallahu 'anhu, Rasulullah bersabda, .. "Tiap pagi ada kewajiban sedekah bagi tiap ruas tulang kalian, Setiap tasbih adalah sedekah, Setiap tahmid adalah sedekah, Setiap takbir adalah sedekah, memerintahkan untuk melakukan kebaikan adalah sedekah, melarang dari kemungkaran adalah sedekah, dan semua itu dapat tercukupi dengan melakukan dua rakaat sholat Dhuha." (HR. Muslim) 3.Sholatnya orang-orang yang bertaubat (penghapus dosa) .. "Shalatnya orang-orang yang bertaubat adalah pada saat berdirinya anak unta karena teriknya matahari." (HR. Muslim) "Siapapun yang melaksanakan shalat dhuha dengan langgeng, akan diampuni dosanya oleh Allah, sekalipun dosa itu sebanyak busa lautan." (H.R Turmudzi) B. KEUTAMAAN SHALAT DHUHA ... Mungkin kita sering menyepelekan shalat dhuha, padahal sangat disayangkan kalau kita melewatkan shalat ini setiap harinya … Dari Keutamaan2 dibawah ini semoga bisa mencerahkan bathin pikiran kita agar mau meluangkan waktu untuk shalat ini ... 1.Limpahan barokah sepanjang hari serta bathin yg damai .. "Hai anak Adam, tunaikanlah kewajibanmu untuk KU, yaitu shalat empat rakaat pada pagi hari, niscaya Aku akan mencukupi sepanjang harimu (Hadits Qudsi Riwayat Imam Ahmad, Abu Ya'la). Dari hadits qudsi ini, Allah akan melimpahkan barokah sepanjang hari dari shalat empat rakaat dhuha kita, yang menyebabkan bathin terasa damai walaupun banyak rintangan hidup. 2.Terbukanya pintu rezeki yang luas dan diberi keberkahan hidup di dunia&akhirat ... Coba kita cermati isi do'a yang dibaca setelah shalat dhuha ini : "Ya Allah, bahwasanya waktu dhuha itu waktu dhuha-Mu, kecantikan ialah kencantikan-Mu, keindahan itu keindahan-Mu, kekuatan itu kekuatan-Mu, kekuasaan itu kekuasaan-Mu, dan perlindungan itu perlindungan Mu". Ya Allah, jika rizqiku masih diatas langit, turunkanlah , dan jika ada di didalam bumi, keluarkanlah, jika sukar, mudahkanlah, jika haram sucikanlah, jika masih jauh dekatkanlah, berkat waktu dhuha, keagungan, keindahan, kekuatan dan kekuasaan Mu, limpahkanlah kepada kami segala yang telah Engkau limpahkan kepada hamba-hamba Mu yang shaleh". Dari doa tersebut kita banyak memohon agar pintu rizqi kita diluaskan, karena semakin kita banyak berdoa dan beramal sholeh (salah satunya shalat dhuha) maka permohonan dan doa kita akan lebih mudah dikabulkan oleh Allah. Di dunia kita diberi keberkahan hidup dan di akhirat kita InsyaAllah diberikan surga sperti pada hadits qudsi : ... "Sesungguhnya di dalam syurga, ada pintu yang dinamakan pintu DHUHA, maka ketika datang hari kiamat memanggillah (yang memanggil Allah), dimanakah orang yang selalu mengerjakan shalat atas Ku dengan shalat DHUHA? inilah pintu kamu, maka masuklah kamu ke dalam syurga dengan rahmat Allah". (Riwayat Thabrani dari Abu Huraerah). *** Nah gimana gimana?? sudah baca semua kan? Mari kita usahakan agar Shalat Dhuha ini bisa kita laksanakan secara istiqomah (terus menerus) .. "Barangsiapa yang mengerjakan kebaikan seberat dzarrahpun, niscaya dia akan melihat (balasan)nya." (Qs.Al-Zalzalah :7) Subhanallah..

Dalam suasana hari yang cerah pada pagi siang hari, sore dan malam hari berganti begitu mendung dan hujan pun turun dengan deras. Diselingi pula dengan petir membahana. Imam Ahmad berkata, "Muhammad bin Mush'ab meriwayatkan kepada kami dari Imarah dari Abu Nadhrah dari Abu Sa'id al Khudri bahwa Rasulullah SAW bersabda, 'Akan ada banyak petir ketika mendekati kiamat. Sehingga seorang laki laki dan suatu kaum berkata, 'Siapakah yang tersambar petir dari kalian pagi ini?' Mereka berkata, 'Telah tersambar petir si fulan dan si fulan." Al Hafizh Abu Bakar al Bazzar mengatakan dalam musnadnya, "Ishaq meriwayatkan kepada kami dari Khalid dari Suhail dari ayahnya Abu Hurairah bahwa Rasulullah SAW bersabda, 'Tidak akan terjadi kiamat hingga langit menurunkan hujan sampai tidak ada lagi rumah rumah orang orang kota dan tidak ada pula rumah rumah orang desa'." Imam Ahmad berkata, "Mu'amal meriwayatkan kepada kami dari Himad dari Ali bin Zaid dari Khalid ibnul Huwairits dari Abdullah bin Amru bahwa Rasulullah SAW bersabda, 'Ayat-ayat teruntai dalam sebuah tali, kemudian tali itu putus maka sebagian yang satu mengikuti sebagian yang lain." Bahkan sekarang ini, Saudi Arabia yang notabene gersang dan jarang hujan pun telah mengalami hujan lebat. Dan pula beberapa kali terjadi banjir di negeri itu. Ditambah salju pun mulai turun di sana.

- islamist - Social Mention: The three reasons behind US-Saudi fall-out Last updated: 19 November 2013 The Saudis, in a pique over US policy on Syria and Egypt, finally snapped at a potential thaw with Iran. As the cost of keeping its presence all over the world is becoming unbearably high, the US, in its pursuit to reduce this cost, needs to partially replace some of its presence by a new kind of cooperation with efficient, local or global, actors. This new strategy of sharing costs and benefits comes at the expense of its allies, like Saudi Arabia (KSA) with regard to Iran, or Europe with regard to Russia. At the same time, when considering Saudi Arabia's diplomacy, we are invited to dedicate a great deal of our attention to three high-activity areas: threat neutralisation, legitimacy consolidation, and the pursuit of interests. This is what I call the traditional list. Because power is shared on a large scale, cooperation and coherence tend to be most obvious on security issues, thereby creating an environment where security-oriented policies enjoy the delicate attention of almost all actors. Thus, a high degree of importance and effectiveness is visible. And since one effective tool for ensuring - or compromising for that matter - security is legitimacy, then legitimacy-oriented policies come second. This could partially explain why Saudi foreign policy tended, in the past, to be reactive more than on the acting side. However, due to internal structural changes that Saudi Arabia is undergoing, this traditional list is very likely to be different in the near future, leading to a new tone in Saudi diplomacy. These elements lead both countries to redefine their roles in the region. That is the context of the recent Saudi-US rift. While both countries regard the Arab Spring as being a threat as well as an opportunity, they differ on the identification of threats and opportunities. Hence, their policies differ regarding the Arab Spring countries, like Egypt and Syria. The same could be said with regard to other actors in the region, like Iran. Egypt's drift In Egypt, the arrival of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) to power posed a real problem to Saudi Arabia. Unlike the US, which doesn't want to repeat the bad experience it had with Iran under Islamist rule in Egypt's Muslim brotherhood, Saudi Arabia doesn't look favourably upon Islamist parties running governments in the Arab World. One main reason is that Saudi Arabia has always portrayed itself as ruling according to Islamic Law (Sharia), which - according to its own perception of Sharia - prohibits democracy and freedoms. Now, it has a rival which, in the name of Sharia, is making serious attempts to install a democratic political system. This explains, partially, why Saudi Arabia, in December 2011, made a sudden shift of focus in its legitimacy discourse from the idea of Islam in general, to Salafism. For Saudi Arabia, this is an existential crisis to which the US doesn't seem to be paying enough attention. The US that treaded carefully on the expansion of NATO to the East, lest it upset Russia, offered alternative assurances to its allies in Europe, like deployment of the Patriot missiles. Despite getting closer to Iran, the US doesn't offer alternative assurances to Saudi Arabia. Additionally, Saudi Arabia has worked extensively in the past three decades on building an anti-Iran front in the region, of which Egypt was a cornerstone. Riyadh believes that MB's foreign policy posed a threat to this position, by Egypt's drift from Saudi Arabia on the one hand, and by a rapprochement with Iran on the other. As a consequence, and in sharp and rare contrast with the US, Saudi Arabia strongly supported the military intervention which ousted the democratically elected president in Egypt, Mohamed Morsi. Saudi failure in Syria Syria, however, has always been regarded by Saudi Arabia as Iran's gate to the Arab world. This is the reason why Saudi Arabia attempted many a time to polarise Syria and drive it away from Iran. The same thing was tried by Western countries. Neither were successful. Nonetheless, when the Syrian people took to the streets, the Saudi hope of ending the Syria-Iran alliance was revived. But, the US is reluctant to provide intelligence and military support to the rebels. From the Saudi perspective, the absence of such a backing prolonged the war against the Syrian regime as well as made the rebels more vulnerable to extremist forces. Additionally, the Saudis had high hopes for a US military strike on Bashar al-Assad forces, following the alleged use of chemical weapons against civilians by the regime, thus putting an end to his reign. The strike didn't take place and Riyadh was profoundly unhappy. Iran angle These two dossiers, Egypt and Syria, were a major disappointment for Saudi Arabia. The fact that the US seems to be getting closer to Iran doesn't help alleviate this disappointment. On the contrary, it aggravates Saudi concerns. One reason why the Saudis seem anxious about the US-Iran rapprochement is that it appears to be happening within a strategic framework, rather than a tactical one. With the new US strategy, keeping shared costs and benefits in mind, it is not impossible to imagine a complete normalisation between both countries. The new strategy means subjugating the region to one major state-actor capable of maintaining US interests, like Iran. In exchange for bearing part of the cost of that maintenance, there will be the sharing of some of the benefits of power and hegemony. That would be at the expense of the Gulf countries, including Saudi Arabia. There is a long history of such an understanding between the US and Iran. Additionally, the internal changes that Iran is going through facilitate this rapprochement. The legitimacy discourse, for example, that is based on the idea of madloumiyah (being subject to oppression), which translates into antagonising the outside world, seems to be retreating. One sign of such a change is the Green Movement that relates legitimacy of power to development and modernising the country. This movement looks favourably on better relations with the West. A crisis of trust There is a change in the Saudi traditional list - which reflects an even deeper change, touching the structure of power as well as its nature. And a new US strategy, sharing costs and benefits, has emerged. In this context, coupled with disappointments in important regional dossiers, there seems to be a crisis of trust. Saudi Arabia is seriously questioning its ability to trust, as well as rely on, the US. The US that treaded carefully on the expansion of NATO to the East, lest it upset Russia, offered alternative assurances to its allies in Europe, like deployment of the Patriot missiles. Despite getting closer to Iran, the US doesn't offer alternative assurances to Saudi Arabia. Assurances that should begin and end, according to Saudi Arabia, with one thing: maintaining the anti-Iran front. This front would be deeply compromised, the Saudis seem to think, if the US doesn't cooperate with Riyadh on Egypt and Syria. This could explain why Saudi Arabia turned down the Security Council seat: to voice its frustration and disappointment with US foreign policy. The incapability of the Security Council to resolve all problems is nothing new. Such has been the case ever since it was founded. Furthermore, Saudi Arabia has always been active in this international framework. So why the sudden objection? The objection appears to be a reaction to a void in its security and strategic alliances. Therefore, it is only logical to think that this objection is a way to voice its frustration with the ally that has filled this void since 1945, namely, the US. Yet, and given that it has no other security alternatives ready at hand, Saudi Arabia has an interest in finding common ground with the US. At the same time, the latter has a real interest in compromising with the former. Hence, this rift between the two countries is not expected to last very long. Rather, it is aimed at taking the Saudi-US relations to a different level, more adjusted to the context of the rift itself - internal changes and the new strategy.

- abu adam - Social Mention: Riwayat Panjang Berdirinya Ka'bah Dalam Perjalanan Islam Kabah. (Foto: google) MAKKAH (Berita SuaraMedia) - Ka'bah berkali-kali rusak sehingga harus berkali-kali dibongkar sebelum dibangun kembali. Di Museum Haramain, benda-benda itu disimpan. Ada kotak tempat menyimpan parfum yang dulu pernah mengisi ruangan Ka'bah. "Ruang Ka'bah isinya hanya tiga pilar dan kotak parfum itu,'' ujar Abdul Rahman, menunjuk pilar-pilar dan kotak yang letaknya berjauhan. Petugas Museum Haramain di Ummul Joud, Makkah, itu mengantar kami keliling melihat koleksi museum. Museum ini menyimpan benda-benda dari Masjidil Haram dan Masjid Nabawi. Ada potongan pilar Ka'bah yang bentuknya sudah seperti kayu fosil berwarna cokelat tua, disimpan bersama kunci pintu Ka'bah dari kayu, juga berwarna cokelat tua. Pintu Ka'bah selalu dikunci dan pemegang kunci sudah turun-temurun dari satu keluarga, sejak sebelum Nabi lahir. Tangga kuno yang pernah dipakai untuk masuk Ka'bah juga tersimpan di museum ini. Tersimpan pula pelapis Hajar Aswad serta pelapis dan pelindung Maqam Ibrahim. Jika orang-orang berebut mencium pelindung Maqam Ibrahim, seharusnya yang layak dicium adalah yang tersimpan di museum ini karena usianya lebih tua dari pelindung yang sekarang dipasang. Namun, tak ada anjuran mencium Maqam Ibrahim. Nabi hanya memberi contoh mencium Hajar Aswad. Kotak parfum Ka'bah yang disimpan di museum ini juga berwarna cokelat tua. Sewaktu masih difungsikan di dalam Ka'bah, botol-botol parfum yang dipakai untuk mengharumkan ruangan Ka'bah disimpan di kotak itu. Riwayat Ka'bah Ka'bah awalnya dibangun oleh Adam dan kemudian anak Adam, Syist, melanjutkannya. Saat terjadi banjir Nabi Nuh, Ka'bah ikut musnah dan Allah memerintahkan Nabi Ibrahim membangun kembali. Al-Hafiz Imaduddin Ibnu Katsir mencatat riwayat itu berasal dari ahli kitab (Bani Israil), bukan dari Nabi Muhammad. Ka'bah yang dibangun Ibrahim pernah rusak pada masa kekuasaan Kabilah Amaliq. Ka'bah dibangun kembali sesuai rancangan yang dibuat Ibrahim tanpa ada penambahan ataupun pengurangan. Saat dikuasai Kabilah Jurhum, Ka'bah juga mengalami kerusakan dan dibangun kembali dengan meninggikan fondasi. Pintu dibuat berdaun dua dan dikunci. Di masa Qusai bin Kilab, Hajar Aswad sempat hilang diambil oleh anak-anak Mudhar bin Nizar dan ditanam di sebuah bukit. Qusai adalah orang pertama dari bangsa Quraisy yang mengelola Ka'bah selepas Nabi Ibrahim. Di masa Qusai ini, tinggi Ka'bah ditambah menjadi 25 hasta dan diberi atap. Setelah Hajar Aswad ditemukan, kemudian disimpan oleh Qusai, hingga masa Ka'bah dikuasai oleh Quraisy pada masa Nabi Muhammad. Nabi Muhammad membantu memasangkan Hajar Aswad itu pada tempat semestinya. Dari masa Nabi Ibrahim hingga ke bangsa Quraisy terhitung ada 2.645 tahun. Pada masa Quraisy, ada perempuan yang membakar kemenyan untuk mengharumkan Ka'bah. Kiswah Ka'bah pun terbakar karenanya sehingga juga merusak bangunan Ka'bah. Kemudian, terjadi pula banjir yang juga menambah kerusakan Ka'bah. Peristiwa kebakaran ini yang diduga membuat warna Hajar Aswad yang semula putih permukaannya menjadi hitam. Untuk membangun kembali Ka'bah, bangsa Quraisy membeli kayu bekas kapal yang terdampar di pelabuhan Jeddah, kapal milik bangsa Rum. Kayu kapal itu kemudian digunakan untuk atap Ka'bah dan tiga pilar Ka'bah. Pilar Ka'bah dari kayu kapal ini tercatat dipakai hingga 65 H. Potongan pilarnya tersimpan juga di museum. Empat puluh sembilan tahun sepeninggal Nabi (yang wafat pada 632 Masehi atau tahun 11 Hijriah), Ka'bah juga terbakar. Kejadiannya saat tentara dari Syam menyerbu Makkah pada 681 Masehi, yaitu di masa penguasa Abdullah bin Az-Zubair, cucu Abu Bakar, yang berarti juga keponakan Aisyah. Kebakaran pada masa ini mengakibatkan Hajar Aswad yang berdiameter 30 cm itu terpecah jadi tiga. Untuk membangun kembali, seperti masa-masa sebelumnya, Ka'bah diruntuhkan terlebih dulu. Abdullah AzZubair membangun Ka'bah dengan dua pintu. Satu pintu dekat Hajar Aswad, satu pintu lagi dekat sudut Rukun Yamani, lurus dengan pintu dekat Hajar Aswad. Abdullah bin Az-Zubair memasang pecahan Hajar Aswad itu dengan diberi penahan perak. Yang terpasang sekarang adalah delapan pecahan kecil Hajar Aswad bercampur dengan bahan lilin, kasturi, dan ambar. Jumlah pecahan Hajar Aswad diperkirakan mencapai 50 butir. Pada 693 Masehi, Hajjaj bin Yusuf Ath-Taqafi berkirim surat ke Khalifah Abdul Malik bin Marwan (khalifah kelima dari Bani Umayyah yang mulai menjadi khalifah pada 692 Masehi), memberitahukan bahwa Abdullah bin Az-Zubair membuat dua pintu untuk Ka'bah dan memasukkan Hijir Ismail ke dalam bangunan Ka'bah. Hajjaj ingin mengembalikan Ka'bah seperti di masa Quraisy; satu pintu dan Hijir Ismail berada di luar bangunan Ka'bah. Maka, oleh Hajjaj, pintu kedua--yang berada di sebelah barat dekat Rukun Yamani--ditutup kembali dan Hijir Ismail dikembalikan seperti semula, yakni berada di luar bangunan Ka'bah. Akan tetapi, Khalifah Abdul Malik belakangan menyesal setelah mengetahui Ka'bah di masa Abdullah bin AzZubair dibangun berdasarkan hadis riwayat Aisyah. Di masa berikutnya, Khalifah Harun Al-Rasyid hendak mengembalikan bangunan Ka'bah serupa dengan yang dibangun Abdullah bin Az-Zubair karena sesuai dengan keinginan Nabi. Namun, Imam Malik menasihatinya agar tidak menjadikan Ka'bah sebagai bangunan yang selalu diubah sesuai kehendak setiap pemimpin. Jika itu terjadi, menurut Imam Malik, akan hilang kehebatannya di hati kaum Mukmin. Pada 1630 Masehi, Ka'bah rusak akibat diterjang banjir. Sultan Murad Khan IV membangun kembali, sesuai bangunan Hajjaj bin Yusuf hingga bertahan 400 tahun lamanya pada masa pemerintahan Sultan Abdul Abdul Aziz. Sultan inilah yang memulai proyek pertama pelebaran Masjidil Haram. Replika mushaf di Museum ini tersimpan pula replika Quran mushaf Usmani yang bacaannya, susunan surah dan ayatnya, serta jumlah surah dan ayatnya dipakai sebagai panduan hingga sekarang. Yang berbeda cuma bentuk hurufnya. Pada masa Khalifah Usman bin Affan (35 H) dibuatlah standardisasi penulisan Quran. Di masa itu, sahabatsahabat Nabi memiliki mushaf yang berbeda satu sama lain, baik dalam hal bacaan, susunan surah dan ayat, maupun jumlah surah dan ayat. Mushaf yang dimiliki Ibnu Mas'ud, misalnya, tidak menyertakan Surat AlFatihah dan susunan surat yang berbeda. Surah keenam bukanlah Surah Al-An'am, melainkan Surah Yunus. Quran Ali bin Abi Thalib juga tak memiliki Surah Al-Fatihah. Ali juga tak memasukkan surah ke-13, 34, 66, dan 96 ke mushafnya. "Ukuran mushaf Usman yang asli berbeda dari yang ini. Ini hanya duplikat,'' ujar Abdul Rahman. (republika) [1 Aktualisierung]

U.S. Says Dozens of Americans Have Sought to Join Rebels in Syria Dozens of Americans have traveled or tried to travel to Syria to fight with the rebels against the government of President Bashar al-Assad since 2011, American intelligence officials said Wednesday. The Americans are a small subset of the mostly radicalized young Muslims with Western passports who are entering Syria from Europe, North America and Australia, a group that numbers roughly 600, according to the officials and classified estimates from Western spy agencies. That represents a fraction of the roughly 6,000 to 11,000 foreign fighters over all who have poured into Syria by way of the Middle East and North Africa. The Americans' numbers are small — intelligence officials would not be more precise than saying "dozens" were involved — and they have so far not distinguished themselves on the battlefield. But they are part of what officials said was a growing presence of foreigners who are fighting Mr. Assad's government. "It's a very steady increase, and I expect that to continue as long as the fighting there continues," a senior American intelligence official said. He was one of four intelligence officials who spoke in a wide-ranging background briefing for reporters who had requested information on the most current assessments by American and other Western spy agencies of foreigners fighting in Syria, including how they are recruited, trained and financed. The influx of young Muslims with Western passports into Syria has raised fears among American and European intelligence officials of a new terrorist threat when the fighters return home. In Syria, the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria has emerged as the leader in attracting foreign fighters as it exploits the chaos of the civil war and tries to lay the groundwork for an Islamic state. The group has repeatedly clashed with other rebel brigades, including another group aligned with Al Qaeda, the Nusra Front. Mr. Assad has foreign fighters of his own helping his army, though in smaller numbers than those battling his government, American officials said. Hezbollah, the Lebanese Shiite militant group, has sent armed followers to fight in Syria, as has Iran's Quds Force. In addition to these two Islamic extremist groups, the American officials said "migrant brigades," which do not have the strict vetting requirements of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria or Nusra to weed out Western spies, are also proliferating. Among the best known of these emerging units is Jaish al-Muhajireen wal-Ansar, a group that actively recruits armed followers from Central Asia and Europe, often using Twitter, online training videos and other social media, the officials said. While the intelligence officials said there had not yet been any confirmed cases of foreign fighters carrying out attacks in their home countries upon their return — most of those suspected militants are still in Syria — it is the militants from groups like Jaish, they say, that pose the greatest threat when they come home. One American, Nicole Lynn Mansfield, 33, of Flint, Mich., a convert to Islam, was killed in May while in the company of Syrian rebels in Idlib Province. Another, Eric Harroun, 30, a former Army soldier from Phoenix, was indicted in Virginia by a federal grand jury this year on charges related to allegations that he fought alongside the Nusra Front. In September, he pleaded guilty to a lesser charge involving conspiracy to transfer defense articles and services, and was released from custody. In February, Mr. Harroun bragged about his involvement, posting a photo on his Facebook page saying, "Downed a Syrian Helicopter then Looted all Intel and Weapons! http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/21/world/middleeast/us-says-dozens-of-americans-have-sought-to-join-rebels-in-syria.html?_r=0

President Obama Declares The Future Must Not Belong to Practicing Christians By: Erick Erickson (Diary) September 25th, 2012 at 11:20 AM 205 RESIZE: AAA In his speech to the United Nations General Assembly today the President of the United States declared that the future does not belong to practicing Christians. Already, the media and the left are in full denial, probably based on their general lack of understanding of theology. This would have been a gaffe had Mitt Romney said it. But with Barack Obama, he's just speaking bold truths. His bold truth declares that the future does not belong to practicing Christians. Pay careful attention to what he says. The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam. Yet to be credible, those who condemn that slander must also condemn the hate we see when the image of Jesus Christ is desecrated, churches are destroyed, or the Holocaust is denied. Let us condemn incitement against Sufi Muslims, and Shiite pilgrims. It is time to heed the words of Gandhi: "Intolerance is itself a form of violence and an obstacle to the growth of a true democratic spirit." Together, we must work towards a world where we are strengthened by our differences, and not defined by them. That is what America embodies, and that is the vision we will support. Now, that's the full paragraph so no one can claim I took him out of context. But consider this. It is an orthodox Christian belief that Mohammed is not a prophet. Actual Christians, as opposed to many of the supposed Christians put up by the mainstream media, believe that Christ is the only way to salvation. Believing that is slandering Mohammed. That's just a fact. If you don't believe me, you go into the MIddle East and proclaim Christ is the way, the truth, and the life and see what happens to your life. Then Barack Obama went on to say "Yet to be credible, those who condemn that slander must also condemn the hate we see when the image of Jesus Christ is desecrated, churches are destroyed, or the Holocaust is denied." Note he says we cannot "slander the prophet of Islam" but it's only the image of Christ in the next sentence — not actually Christ himself desecrated. If this is so, why does Barack Obama's government continue funding the National Endowment for the Arts, which funded Christ in piss, the Virgin Mary painted in dung, etc.? Now, in point of fact, this is a major difference between Islam and Christianity. Christ came to this world as an enemy of the world and expected to be impugned. He also tells his followers that they should expect to be impugned. There is joy in being persecuted for following the Risen Lord. In Islam, if you impugn Mohammed, you get a fatwa on your butt. And then there is the first amendment. The President of the United States tried to have it both ways in his speech. I know there are some who ask why we don't just ban such a video. The answer is enshrined in our laws: our Constitution protects the right to practice free speech. Here in the United States, countless publications provoke offense. Like me, the majority of Americans are Christian, and yet we do not ban blasphemy against our most sacred beliefs. Moreover, as President of our country, and Commander-in-Chief of our military, I accept that people are going to call me awful things every day, and I will always defend their right to do so. Americans have fought and died around the globe to protect the right of all people to express their views – even views that we disagree with. We do so not because we support hateful speech, but because our Founders understood that without such protections, the capacity of each individual to express their own views, and practice their own faith, may be threatened. We do so because in a diverse society, efforts to restrict speech can become a tool to silence critics, or oppress minorities. We do so because given the power of faith in our lives, and the passion that religious differences can inflame, the strongest weapon against hateful speech is not repression, it is more speech – the voices of tolerance that rally against bigotry and blasphemy, and lift up the values of understanding and mutual respect. I know that not all countries in this body share this understanding of the protection of free speech. Yet in 2012, at a time when anyone with a cell phone can spread offensive views around the world with the click of a button, the notion that we can control the flow of information is obsolete. The question, then, is how we respond. And on this we must agree: there is no speech that justifies mindless violence. Just words, Mr. President? You say "there is no speech that justifies mindless violence," but all last week you condemned a ridiculous video trailer for a movie that does not exist. Your government ran advertisements in Pakistan denouncing the video. What of free speech, Mr. President? Last week you were saying the violence was understandable given the offensive film and this week you are trying to claim it was mindless. Oh wait, you did it again in the same speech where you said "there is no speech that justifies mindless violence": At times, the conflicts arise along the fault lines of faith, race or tribe; and often they arise from the difficulties of reconciling tradition and faith with the diversity and interdependence of the modern world. In every country, there are those who find different religious beliefs threatening; in every culture, those who love freedom for themselves must ask how much they are willing to tolerate freedom for others. That is what we saw play out the last two weeks, as a crude and disgusting video sparked outrage throughout the Muslim world. Time and again the President of the United States tries to have it both ways. But are they just words? The fact is, many religions do not recognize Mohammed as a prophet. In the widest swath of Islam, that denial is, in and of itself, slander. So what exactly are you saying Mr. President? As an exit point, with all of President Obama's statements on tolerance in his speech, we should remember that tolerance is really not a Christian virtue. As Archbishop Chaput of Philadelphia noted, "We need to remember that tolerance is not a Christian virtue. Charity, justice, mercy, prudence, honesty — these are Christian virtues. And obviously, in a diverse community, tolerance is an important working principle. But it's never an end itself." The Archbishop also noted that evil preaches tolerance until it is dominate and then it seeks to silence good. That's not a statement that the President is evil in any way, shape, or form, but we should be mindful when the secular world demands tolerance for all, tolerance for all means we cannot have standards of faith to live by, because those standards obviously require we be intolerant of sins this world has embraced.

Im Islam hat der einzig wahre Gott (Allah) die ganze Schöpfung erschaffen. Es
ist dieser große Gott (Allah), der alle Menschen und Tiere, die Erde und die Berge,
die Ozeane und Flüsse, die Pflanzen und

If anyone among you worshipped Muhammad (S), let him know that Muhammad (S) is dead. But those who worshipped Allah, let them know that He lives and will never die. Let all of us recall the words of the Qur'an. It says: 'Muhammad is only a Messenger of Allah, there have been Messengers before him. What then, will you turn back from Islam if he dies or is killed?'

SHOLAT DHUHA, ITU PERLU GAK SIH ? Siapa yang istiqomah melaksanakan Shalat DHUHA Insya Allah, Allah SWT akan menjamin baginya dengan jaminan istimewa di dunia dan akhirat. Shalat Dhuha, shalat sunat pada pagi hari kira2 pukul 7-11 Rakaatnya bisa 2 sampai 12 rakaat ... A. MENGAPA KITA DISUNNAHKAN SHALAT DHUHA ? .. 1.Wasiat Baginda Rasulullah SAW ... dari Abu Hurairah, "Kekasihku (Nabi Muhammad) mewasiatkan kepadaku untuk berpuasa tiga hari dalam tiap bulan, melakukan dua rakaat sholat Dhuha dan melakukan sholat witir sebelum tidur." (HR. Bukhari Muslim) Jadi Shalat ini merupakan kebiasaan Rasulullah yg patut kita ikuti 2.Sedekah untuk tiap ruas tulang kita ... Dari Abu Dzar radhiallahu 'anhu, Rasulullah bersabda, .. "Tiap pagi ada kewajiban sedekah bagi tiap ruas tulang kalian, Setiap tasbih adalah sedekah, Setiap tahmid adalah sedekah, Setiap takbir adalah sedekah, memerintahkan untuk melakukan kebaikan adalah sedekah, melarang dari kemungkaran adalah sedekah, dan semua itu dapat tercukupi dengan melakukan dua rakaat sholat Dhuha." (HR. Muslim) 3.Sholatnya orang-orang yang bertaubat (penghapus dosa) .. "Shalatnya orang-orang yang bertaubat adalah pada saat berdirinya anak unta karena teriknya matahari." (HR. Muslim) "Siapapun yang melaksanakan shalat dhuha dengan langgeng, akan diampuni dosanya oleh Allah, sekalipun dosa itu sebanyak busa lautan." (H.R Turmudzi) B. KEUTAMAAN SHALAT DHUHA ... Mungkin kita sering menyepelekan shalat dhuha, padahal sangat disayangkan kalau kita melewatkan shalat ini setiap harinya … Dari Keutamaan2 dibawah ini semoga bisa mencerahkan bathin pikiran kita agar mau meluangkan waktu untuk shalat ini ... 1.Limpahan barokah sepanjang hari serta bathin yg damai .. "Hai anak Adam, tunaikanlah kewajibanmu untuk KU, yaitu shalat empat rakaat pada pagi hari, niscaya Aku akan mencukupi sepanjang harimu (Hadits Qudsi Riwayat Imam Ahmad, Abu Ya'la). Dari hadits qudsi ini, Allah akan melimpahkan barokah sepanjang hari dari shalat empat rakaat dhuha kita, yang menyebabkan bathin terasa damai walaupun banyak rintangan hidup. 2.Terbukanya pintu rezeki yang luas dan diberi keberkahan hidup di dunia&akhirat ... Coba kita cermati isi do'a yang dibaca setelah shalat dhuha ini : "Ya Allah, bahwasanya waktu dhuha itu waktu dhuha-Mu, kecantikan ialah kencantikan-Mu, keindahan itu keindahan-Mu, kekuatan itu kekuatan-Mu, kekuasaan itu kekuasaan-Mu, dan perlindungan itu perlindungan Mu". Ya Allah, jika rizqiku masih diatas langit, turunkanlah , dan jika ada di didalam bumi, keluarkanlah, jika sukar, mudahkanlah, jika haram sucikanlah, jika masih jauh dekatkanlah, berkat waktu dhuha, keagungan, keindahan, kekuatan dan kekuasaan Mu, limpahkanlah kepada kami segala yang telah Engkau limpahkan kepada hamba-hamba Mu yang shaleh". Dari doa tersebut kita banyak memohon agar pintu rizqi kita diluaskan, karena semakin kita banyak berdoa dan beramal sholeh (salah satunya shalat dhuha) maka permohonan dan doa kita akan lebih mudah dikabulkan oleh Allah. Di dunia kita diberi keberkahan hidup dan di akhirat kita InsyaAllah diberikan surga sperti pada hadits qudsi : ... "Sesungguhnya di dalam syurga, ada pintu yang dinamakan pintu DHUHA, maka ketika datang hari kiamat memanggillah (yang memanggil Allah), dimanakah orang yang selalu mengerjakan shalat atas Ku dengan shalat DHUHA? inilah pintu kamu, maka masuklah kamu ke dalam syurga dengan rahmat Allah". (Riwayat Thabrani dari Abu Huraerah). *** Nah gimana gimana?? sudah baca semua kan? Mari kita usahakan agar Shalat Dhuha ini bisa kita laksanakan secara istiqomah (terus menerus) .. "Barangsiapa yang mengerjakan kebaikan seberat dzarrahpun, niscaya dia akan melihat (balasan)nya." (Qs.Al-Zalzalah :7) Subhanallah.. (Cantumkan jika ada doa khusus untuk ibu dan juga doa yang lainnya,agar kami para jamaah bisa mengaminkannya) Silahkan Klik Like dan Bagikan di halamanmu agar kamu dan teman-temanmu senantiasa istiqomah dan bisa meningkatkan ketakwaannya kepada ALLAH SWT. Ya ALLAH... ? Muliakanlah orang yang membaca tausiah ini ? Entengkanlah kakinya untuk melangkah ke masjid ? Lapangkanlah hatinya ? Bahagiakanlah keluarganya ? Luaskan rezekinya seluas lautan ? Mudahkan segala urusannya ? Kabulkan cita-citanya ? Jauhkan dari segala Musibah ? Jauhkan dari segala Penyakit,Fitnah ,Prasangka Keji,Berkata Kasar dan Mungkar. ? Dan dekatkanlah jodohnya untuk orang yang membaca dan membagikan tausiah ini. Aamiin ya Rabbal'alamin

Banyaknya Petir & Hujan; Tanda Akhir Dunia SEKARANG ini, dimana pun kita berada, agaknya petir dan hujan sering sekali mewarnai hari-hari kita. Dalam suasana hari yang cerah pada pagi siang hari, sore dan malam hari berganti begitu mendung dan hujan pun turun dengan deras. Diselingi pula dengan petir membahana. Imam Ahmad berkata, "Muhammad bin Mush'ab meriwayatkan kepada kami dari Imarah dari Abu Nadhrah dari Abu Sa'id al Khudri bahwa Rasulullah SAW bersabda, 'Akan ada banyak petir ketika mendekati kiamat. Sehingga seorang laki laki dan suatu kaum berkata, 'Siapakah yang tersambar petir dari kalian pagi ini?' Mereka berkata, 'Telah tersambar petir si fulan dan si fulan." Al Hafizh Abu Bakar al Bazzar mengatakan dalam musnadnya, "Ishaq meriwayatkan kepada kami dari Khalid dari Suhail dari ayahnya Abu Hurairah bahwa Rasulullah SAW bersabda, 'Tidak akan terjadi kiamat hingga langit menurunkan hujan sampai tidak ada lagi rumah rumah orang orang kota dan tidak ada pula rumah rumah orang desa'." Imam Ahmad berkata, "Mu'amal meriwayatkan kepada kami dari Himad dari Ali bin Zaid dari Khalid ibnul Huwairits dari Abdullah bin Amru bahwa Rasulullah SAW bersabda, 'Ayat-ayat teruntai dalam sebuah tali, kemudian tali itu putus maka sebagian yang satu mengikuti sebagian yang lain." Bahkan sekarang ini, Saudi Arabia yang notabene gersang dan jarang hujan pun telah mengalami hujan lebat. Dan pula beberapa kali terjadi banjir di negeri itu. Ditambah salju pun mulai turun di sana. Adakah ini salah satu pertanda akhir zaman? Allahu alam bi shawwab. [Kitab An Nihayatu fi al Fitani wa al Malahimi – Ibnu Katsir] SUBHANALLAH Semoga ALLAH senantiasa membimbing kita dalam kesabaran, dan memberikan kita segala pertolongan sehingga setiap persoalan yang kita hadapi selalu mendapatkan naungan dan kemudahan-Nya. Aamiin Silahkan Klik "SUKA" dan "BAGIKAN", Jika dinilai baik & bermanfaat bagi sahabat semua. Semoga menjadi kebaikan Kita semua. (Cantumkan jika ada doa khusus, agar kami para jamaah bisa mengaminkannya) Ya ALLAH... ✔ Muliakanlah orang yang membaca tausiah ini ✔ Entengkanlah kakinya untuk melangkah ke masjid ✔ Lapangkanlah hatinya ✔ Bahagiakanlah keluarganya ✔ Luaskan rezekinya seluas lautan ✔ Mudahkan segala urusannya ✔ Kabulkan cita-citanya ✔ Jauhkan dari segala Musibah ✔ Jauhkan dari segala Penyakit,Fitnah,Prasangka Keji,Berkata Kasar dan Mungkar. ✔ Dan dekatkanlah jodohnya untuk orang yang membaca dan membagikan tausiah ini.

The three reasons behind US-Saudi fall-out Last updated: 19 November 2013 The Saudis, in a pique over US policy on Syria and Egypt, finally snapped at a potential thaw with Iran. As the cost of keeping its presence all over the world is becoming unbearably high, the US, in its pursuit to reduce this cost, needs to partially replace some of its presence by a new kind of cooperation with efficient, local or global, actors. This new strategy of sharing costs and benefits comes at the expense of its allies, like Saudi Arabia (KSA) with regard to Iran, or Europe with regard to Russia. At the same time, when considering Saudi Arabia's diplomacy, we are invited to dedicate a great deal of our attention to three high-activity areas: threat neutralisation, legitimacy consolidation, and the pursuit of interests. This is what I call the traditional list. Because power is shared on a large scale, cooperation and coherence tend to be most obvious on security issues, thereby creating an environment where security-oriented policies enjoy the delicate attention of almost all actors. Thus, a high degree of importance and effectiveness is visible. And since one effective tool for ensuring - or compromising for that matter - security is legitimacy, then legitimacy-oriented policies come second. This could partially explain why Saudi foreign policy tended, in the past, to be reactive more than on the acting side. However, due to internal structural changes that Saudi Arabia is undergoing, this traditional list is very likely to be different in the near future, leading to a new tone in Saudi diplomacy. These elements lead both countries to redefine their roles in the region. That is the context of the recent Saudi-US rift. While both countries regard the Arab Spring as being a threat as well as an opportunity, they differ on the identification of threats and opportunities. Hence, their policies differ regarding the Arab Spring countries, like Egypt and Syria. The same could be said with regard to other actors in the region, like Iran. Egypt's drift In Egypt, the arrival of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) to power posed a real problem to Saudi Arabia. Unlike the US, which doesn't want to repeat the bad experience it had with Iran under Islamist rule in Egypt's Muslim brotherhood, Saudi Arabia doesn't look favourably upon Islamist parties running governments in the Arab World. One main reason is that Saudi Arabia has always portrayed itself as ruling according to Islamic Law (Sharia), which - according to its own perception of Sharia - prohibits democracy and freedoms. Now, it has a rival which, in the name of Sharia, is making serious attempts to install a democratic political system. This explains, partially, why Saudi Arabia, in December 2011, made a sudden shift of focus in its legitimacy discourse from the idea of Islam in general, to Salafism. For Saudi Arabia, this is an existential crisis to which the US doesn't seem to be paying enough attention. The US that treaded carefully on the expansion of NATO to the East, lest it upset Russia, offered alternative assurances to its allies in Europe, like deployment of the Patriot missiles. Despite getting closer to Iran, the US doesn't offer alternative assurances to Saudi Arabia. Additionally, Saudi Arabia has worked extensively in the past three decades on building an anti-Iran front in the region, of which Egypt was a cornerstone. Riyadh believes that MB's foreign policy posed a threat to this position, by Egypt's drift from Saudi Arabia on the one hand, and by a rapprochement with Iran on the other. As a consequence, and in sharp and rare contrast with the US, Saudi Arabia strongly supported the military intervention which ousted the democratically elected president in Egypt, Mohamed Morsi. Saudi failure in Syria Syria, however, has always been regarded by Saudi Arabia as Iran's gate to the Arab world. This is the reason why Saudi Arabia attempted many a time to polarise Syria and drive it away from Iran. The same thing was tried by Western countries. Neither were successful. Nonetheless, when the Syrian people took to the streets, the Saudi hope of ending the Syria-Iran alliance was revived. But, the US is reluctant to provide intelligence and military support to the rebels. From the Saudi perspective, the absence of such a backing prolonged the war against the Syrian regime as well as made the rebels more vulnerable to extremist forces. Additionally, the Saudis had high hopes for a US military strike on Bashar al-Assad forces, following the alleged use of chemical weapons against civilians by the regime, thus putting an end to his reign. The strike didn't take place and Riyadh was profoundly unhappy. Iran angle These two dossiers, Egypt and Syria, were a major disappointment for Saudi Arabia. The fact that the US seems to be getting closer to Iran doesn't help alleviate this disappointment. On the contrary, it aggravates Saudi concerns. One reason why the Saudis seem anxious about the US-Iran rapprochement is that it appears to be happening within a strategic framework, rather than a tactical one. With the new US strategy, keeping shared costs and benefits in mind, it is not impossible to imagine a complete normalisation between both countries. The new strategy means subjugating the region to one major state-actor capable of maintaining US interests, like Iran. In exchange for bearing part of the cost of that maintenance, there will be the sharing of some of the benefits of power and hegemony. That would be at the expense of the Gulf countries, including Saudi Arabia. There is a long history of such an understanding between the US and Iran. Additionally, the internal changes that Iran is going through facilitate this rapprochement. The legitimacy discourse, for example, that is based on the idea of madloumiyah (being subject to oppression), which translates into antagonising the outside world, seems to be retreating. One sign of such a change is the Green Movement that relates legitimacy of power to development and modernising the country. This movement looks favourably on better relations with the West. A crisis of trust There is a change in the Saudi traditional list - which reflects an even deeper change, touching the structure of power as well as its nature. And a new US strategy, sharing costs and benefits, has emerged. In this context, coupled with disappointments in important regional dossiers, there seems to be a crisis of trust. Saudi Arabia is seriously questioning its ability to trust, as well as rely on, the US. The US that treaded carefully on the expansion of NATO to the East, lest it upset Russia, offered alternative assurances to its allies in Europe, like deployment of the Patriot missiles. Despite getting closer to Iran, the US doesn't offer alternative assurances to Saudi Arabia. Assurances that should begin and end, according to Saudi Arabia, with one thing: maintaining the anti-Iran front. This front would be deeply compromised, the Saudis seem to think, if the US doesn't cooperate with Riyadh on Egypt and Syria. This could explain why Saudi Arabia turned down the Security Council seat: to voice its frustration and disappointment with US foreign policy. The incapability of the Security Council to resolve all problems is nothing new. Such has been the case ever since it was founded. Furthermore, Saudi Arabia has always been active in this international framework. So why the sudden objection? The objection appears to be a reaction to a void in its security and strategic alliances. Therefore, it is only logical to think that this objection is a way to voice its frustration with the ally that has filled this void since 1945, namely, the US. Yet, and given that it has no other security alternatives ready at hand, Saudi Arabia has an interest in finding common ground with the US. At the same time, the latter has a real interest in compromising with the former. Hence, this rift between the two countries is not expected to last very long. Rather, it is aimed at taking the Saudi-US relations to a different level, more adjusted to the context of the rift itself - internal changes and the new strategy.

Riwayat Panjang Berdirinya Ka'bah Dalam Perjalanan Islam Kabah. (Foto: google) MAKKAH (Berita SuaraMedia) - Ka'bah berkali-kali rusak sehingga harus berkali-kali dibongkar sebelum dibangun kembali. Di Museum Haramain, benda-benda itu disimpan. Ada kotak tempat menyimpan parfum yang dulu pernah mengisi ruangan Ka'bah. "Ruang Ka'bah isinya hanya tiga pilar dan kotak parfum itu,'' ujar Abdul Rahman, menunjuk pilar-pilar dan kotak yang letaknya berjauhan. Petugas Museum Haramain di Ummul Joud, Makkah, itu mengantar kami keliling melihat koleksi museum. Museum ini menyimpan benda-benda dari Masjidil Haram dan Masjid Nabawi. Ada potongan pilar Ka'bah yang bentuknya sudah seperti kayu fosil berwarna cokelat tua, disimpan bersama kunci pintu Ka'bah dari kayu, juga berwarna cokelat tua. Pintu Ka'bah selalu dikunci dan pemegang kunci sudah turun-temurun dari satu keluarga, sejak sebelum Nabi lahir. Tangga kuno yang pernah dipakai untuk masuk Ka'bah juga tersimpan di museum ini. Tersimpan pula pelapis Hajar Aswad serta pelapis dan pelindung Maqam Ibrahim. Jika orang-orang berebut mencium pelindung Maqam Ibrahim, seharusnya yang layak dicium adalah yang tersimpan di museum ini karena usianya lebih tua dari pelindung yang sekarang dipasang. Namun, tak ada anjuran mencium Maqam Ibrahim. Nabi hanya memberi contoh mencium Hajar Aswad. Kotak parfum Ka'bah yang disimpan di museum ini juga berwarna cokelat tua. Sewaktu masih difungsikan di dalam Ka'bah, botol-botol parfum yang dipakai untuk mengharumkan ruangan Ka'bah disimpan di kotak itu. Riwayat Ka'bah Ka'bah awalnya dibangun oleh Adam dan kemudian anak Adam, Syist, melanjutkannya. Saat terjadi banjir Nabi Nuh, Ka'bah ikut musnah dan Allah memerintahkan Nabi Ibrahim membangun kembali. Al-Hafiz Imaduddin Ibnu Katsir mencatat riwayat itu berasal dari ahli kitab (Bani Israil), bukan dari Nabi Muhammad. Ka'bah yang dibangun Ibrahim pernah rusak pada masa kekuasaan Kabilah Amaliq. Ka'bah dibangun kembali sesuai rancangan yang dibuat Ibrahim tanpa ada penambahan ataupun pengurangan. Saat dikuasai Kabilah Jurhum, Ka'bah juga mengalami kerusakan dan dibangun kembali dengan meninggikan fondasi. Pintu dibuat berdaun dua dan dikunci. Di masa Qusai bin Kilab, Hajar Aswad sempat hilang diambil oleh anak-anak Mudhar bin Nizar dan ditanam di sebuah bukit. Qusai adalah orang pertama dari bangsa Quraisy yang mengelola Ka'bah selepas Nabi Ibrahim. Di masa Qusai ini, tinggi Ka'bah ditambah menjadi 25 hasta dan diberi atap. Setelah Hajar Aswad ditemukan, kemudian disimpan oleh Qusai, hingga masa Ka'bah dikuasai oleh Quraisy pada masa Nabi Muhammad. Nabi Muhammad membantu memasangkan Hajar Aswad itu pada tempat semestinya. Dari masa Nabi Ibrahim hingga ke bangsa Quraisy terhitung ada 2.645 tahun. Pada masa Quraisy, ada perempuan yang membakar kemenyan untuk mengharumkan Ka'bah. Kiswah Ka'bah pun terbakar karenanya sehingga juga merusak bangunan Ka'bah. Kemudian, terjadi pula banjir yang juga menambah kerusakan Ka'bah. Peristiwa kebakaran ini yang diduga membuat warna Hajar Aswad yang semula putih permukaannya menjadi hitam. Untuk membangun kembali Ka'bah, bangsa Quraisy membeli kayu bekas kapal yang terdampar di pelabuhan Jeddah, kapal milik bangsa Rum. Kayu kapal itu kemudian digunakan untuk atap Ka'bah dan tiga pilar Ka'bah. Pilar Ka'bah dari kayu kapal ini tercatat dipakai hingga 65 H. Potongan pilarnya tersimpan juga di museum. Empat puluh sembilan tahun sepeninggal Nabi (yang wafat pada 632 Masehi atau tahun 11 Hijriah), Ka'bah juga terbakar. Kejadiannya saat tentara dari Syam menyerbu Makkah pada 681 Masehi, yaitu di masa penguasa Abdullah bin Az-Zubair, cucu Abu Bakar, yang berarti juga keponakan Aisyah. Kebakaran pada masa ini mengakibatkan Hajar Aswad yang berdiameter 30 cm itu terpecah jadi tiga. Untuk membangun kembali, seperti masa-masa sebelumnya, Ka'bah diruntuhkan terlebih dulu. Abdullah AzZubair membangun Ka'bah dengan dua pintu. Satu pintu dekat Hajar Aswad, satu pintu lagi dekat sudut Rukun Yamani, lurus dengan pintu dekat Hajar Aswad. Abdullah bin Az-Zubair memasang pecahan Hajar Aswad itu dengan diberi penahan perak. Yang terpasang sekarang adalah delapan pecahan kecil Hajar Aswad bercampur dengan bahan lilin, kasturi, dan ambar. Jumlah pecahan Hajar Aswad diperkirakan mencapai 50 butir. Pada 693 Masehi, Hajjaj bin Yusuf Ath-Taqafi berkirim surat ke Khalifah Abdul Malik bin Marwan (khalifah kelima dari Bani Umayyah yang mulai menjadi khalifah pada 692 Masehi), memberitahukan bahwa Abdullah bin Az-Zubair membuat dua pintu untuk Ka'bah dan memasukkan Hijir Ismail ke dalam bangunan Ka'bah. Hajjaj ingin mengembalikan Ka'bah seperti di masa Quraisy; satu pintu dan Hijir Ismail berada di luar bangunan Ka'bah. Maka, oleh Hajjaj, pintu kedua--yang berada di sebelah barat dekat Rukun Yamani--ditutup kembali dan Hijir Ismail dikembalikan seperti semula, yakni berada di luar bangunan Ka'bah. Akan tetapi, Khalifah Abdul Malik belakangan menyesal setelah mengetahui Ka'bah di masa Abdullah bin AzZubair dibangun berdasarkan hadis riwayat Aisyah. Di masa berikutnya, Khalifah Harun Al-Rasyid hendak mengembalikan bangunan Ka'bah serupa dengan yang dibangun Abdullah bin Az-Zubair karena sesuai dengan keinginan Nabi. Namun, Imam Malik menasihatinya agar tidak menjadikan Ka'bah sebagai bangunan yang selalu diubah sesuai kehendak setiap pemimpin. Jika itu terjadi, menurut Imam Malik, akan hilang kehebatannya di hati kaum Mukmin. Pada 1630 Masehi, Ka'bah rusak akibat diterjang banjir. Sultan Murad Khan IV membangun kembali, sesuai bangunan Hajjaj bin Yusuf hingga bertahan 400 tahun lamanya pada masa pemerintahan Sultan Abdul Abdul Aziz. Sultan inilah yang memulai proyek pertama pelebaran Masjidil Haram. Replika mushaf di Museum ini tersimpan pula replika Quran mushaf Usmani yang bacaannya, susunan surah dan ayatnya, serta jumlah surah dan ayatnya dipakai sebagai panduan hingga sekarang. Yang berbeda cuma bentuk hurufnya. Pada masa Khalifah Usman bin Affan (35 H) dibuatlah standardisasi penulisan Quran. Di masa itu, sahabatsahabat Nabi memiliki mushaf yang berbeda satu sama lain, baik dalam hal bacaan, susunan surah dan ayat, maupun jumlah surah dan ayat. Mushaf yang dimiliki Ibnu Mas'ud, misalnya, tidak menyertakan Surat AlFatihah dan susunan surat yang berbeda. Surah keenam bukanlah Surah Al-An'am, melainkan Surah Yunus. Quran Ali bin Abi Thalib juga tak memiliki Surah Al-Fatihah. Ali juga tak memasukkan surah ke-13, 34, 66, dan 96 ke mushafnya. "Ukuran mushaf Usman yang asli berbeda dari yang ini. Ini hanya duplikat,'' ujar Abdul Rahman. (republika)
