Maulid Rasulullah (did something)
Today is Rabi'ul 'Awal, it's very special
for every moslem because in this month their lovely prophet Muhammad SAW was
born.
Here I do not have any desire to talk about
the controversial celebrating the birthday of Rasulullah. I can say that I'm
one who not oppose the celebration, I feel celebrating maulid (birthday) my
lovely prophet can be reflected by celebrating His maulid. Moreover I do not
wanna discuss about why I try to oppose those who cons with celebrating Maulid.
This year, I feel more alive. I've
fifteenth times passed Maulid Rasulullah but I've never felt perfect as this
year, now.
the exact date of Maulid Rasulullah is 12
Rabi'ul Awal but for 1435 H, timeliness with 14th January 2014.
I celebrated it in a good manner, I joined
a lot of ways to celebrate it.
From joining a Majlis Maulid wat Ta'lim
belong to my village till joining Majlis Maulid wat Ta'lim belong to A big
region of Malang Raya.
First, in the early month, I joined one of
Majlis Maulid in my pondok (Islamic boarding school), even though I came late
and went back earlier, minimal I had a celebration of Maulid Rasululullah with
another jama'ah Hubbun Nabi.
On 13th January or 11th Rabi'ul Awal, I
went school as usual but I had a different luggages on my bag. I brought a lot
of equipment to perform representating my class as Da'i in Da'i competition
held by Badan Dakwah Islam (BDI). The theme was quite difficult that the
participants had to experiment to bring the material about Adiwiyata and Maulid
Rasul. Yes, since my school entitled as Sekolah Adiwiyata Nasional, everthing
will be about Adiwiyata (Next, I'll talk about Adiwiyata and my material in
Da'i). And the result Alhamdulillah I got the first winner :D
In this day also, I went back home earlier,
before reaching the night, we had 'anter-anter', it's one of tradition for
Javanese and Madurese people if there is an Islamic fiesta as like Hari Raya
Idul Fitri, Idul Adha, Islamic New Year, Punggahan
before Ramadhan and now Maulid Rasulullah SAW. Every house cooked greater
than before, and gave it to neighbor. In the evening, every house prepared
parcel to be deposited to Musholla.
Going on to the exact date of 12th Rabi'ul
Awal, the sunset and the rising moon signed to 12th Rabiul Awal. There, after
Isya every people in my kampung went to Musholla, we had sholawat. The
atmosphere was heartwarming, And the
parcel that we had brought, we got it back. Yaa it was same with exchange each
other.
On the 12th Rabi'ul Awal morning, because
it was holiday, I did majlis Riyadhus Sholihin in Kampung Arab and I celebrated
it again.
And so far, last night I joined again the
celebration of Maulid Rasulullah with jama'ah Majlis Maulid wat Ta'lim Riyadlul
Jannah that was the biggest club sholawat in Malang Raya (kab. Malang, kota
Malang, kota Batu). I said it was special because I sent my sholawat with
another 4000 jamaah, you can imagine how much people it was.
Yaa, I felt more alive to do a lot of
schedule in celebrating maulid Rasulullah. I do hope simply that Rasulullah
claim me as His followers so I can pick more beneficial to be His followers.
Shollu 'ala Nabi Muhammad
