O Rasulullah

Well sekitar sebulan yang lalu saya baru mendapatkan buku "The Great Story Of Muhammad". Udah kelar baca ret? Belom lah... bukunya tebel banget. hhihi....

Belum ada setengah juga yang saya baca tapi udah gak kuat menahan rindu.
Buku ini akan membawa imajinasi kita langsung ke zaman Rasulullah. Seakan-akan memang kita sangat dekat dengan Rasul dan sahabat-sahabatnya. Kita diajak untuk ikut merasakan kesedihan Rasulullah saat ditinggal kedua orang tuanya dan kakek yang sangat mencintainya. Terlebih saat itu memang Rasul masih anak-anak.

Saya sendiri jadi lebih memahami mengapa kita perlu bershalawat untuk Nabi, dan juga lebih memahami mengapa para sahabat begitu mencintai Rasulullah lebih dari dirinya sendiri. Bukan hanya sahabat, tapi sebagian besar makhluk ciptaan Allah.

They insulted him when they didn’t know who he was

They became his followers when they truly knew his way
What a shame! What they say ~

Where are you in my dreams? You feel so close but so far
When All I want is to see your face in front of me ~
You make me chase around shadows in the moonlight
Only for the sunrise to open my eyes..
Makes me jump to my feet walk around the city streets
Hoping that I’ll find you by my side

Then I feel your sunlight, beautiful and so bright
Feeling I’m in your arms for a while..
Hours pass like a breeze moving through the palm trees
Hand in hand you and me with your smile..

The very mention of you becomes my tranquility

To take your name, it becomes my sanity

Those sweet conversations of yours I would listen too

If the world deems them offensive, what do I care?

I need you in my life, like the air with which I breathe
So let them say what they want to say..
It’s the same game they always play. I’ll turn my ears the other way
It makes no difference either way. Let them say what they want to say
Salutations upon my beloved
It’s a game they’re always going to play

A nice song from Sami Yusuf, It's A Game :)
