Day 14: Persevere~

Daripada Aisyah, Nabi SAW bersabda yang bermaksud: “Wahai manusia, lakukanlah amalan mengikut keupayaan kamu. Sesungguhnya Allah tidak jemu sehingga kamu jemu. Amalan paling Allah sukai ialah amalan yang berterusan walaupun sedikit.”
(Riwayat al-Bukhari dan Muslim)

Maka tetaplah kamu pada jalan yang benar, sebagaimana diperintahkan kepadamu dan (juga) orang yang telah tobat beserta kamu dan janganlah kamu melampaui batas. Sesungguhnya Dia Maha Melihat apa yang kamu kerjakan.
(Surah Hud: 112)

Have you ever heard an English quote saying "slowly but surely" ? Somehow we can relate this quote with a hadith and a Quranic verse as mentioned above. In Islam, we can say  persevere as ISTIQAMAH. Why we need to be persevere in all good deeds that we do?

Before I proceed, I think it's better if we can ask ourselves this question. Is it hard to be persevere? Do we need to be highly determined and discipline in order to be istiqamah in any good deeds and practices that we do? If the answer is yes for both of the questions, you're actually can find the answers on why Allah do loves His servants who're persevere in doing good things in their life. 

"Syurga itu manis kerana mujahadah itu pahit"

Of course we need to mujahadah a lot in order to be an istiqamah person. Inner and outer obstacles are not easy things to be faced and to be gone through, especially in today's high technology world. Sins that might become the silent killer of our istiqamah are very hard to be seen and to be detected, unless we have purely white and clean heart. Why I said so? Because only those with pure heart can be very sensitive with every single action they did that might stray away from the right path.
