Tarbiyah

In this ramadhan month, it is said as a 'tarbiyah month', as what we all had known.
Ramadhan is the month that one can improve himself in the aspect of doing good deeds, increasing the time spend to ALLAH, and improving our quality of ibadah and many other things. All in all, the main aim is to achieve the mardhotillah that ALLAH has promised to those who did all the things just because of HIM.


Ya. The word tarbiyah. How do you define it in our context?
From the context of islam?
I am not the one who really good in explaining this matter due to the lack of reading,
but I just want to share my opinion on how I view that word.
Maybe it is because of having a 'long heart to heart conversation' with someone, it urges my soul to write this post.
Sorry if my writing is messy due to the messy thinking right now,
however, in this post, I just want to reflect on what I have got yesterday.


Tarbiyah.
One may say tarbiyah is given by The Almighty ALLAH in trying to give us chance to increase our level of iman. It is very true indeed.

Sometimes, I just don't know on how to define what's the meaning of tarbiyah but I just assume that anything that I face in my life is the tarbiyah from ALLAH.

Tarbiyah for me is the phase for us to improve ourself mentally, physically and spiritually as well as to see things from the other perspectives.
Whatever problems and nikmat that are given by Allah is the tarbiyah from HIM.
As long as we believe that anything that we got to face either they are easy or even extremely difficult, just remember those things are the tarbiyah from ALLAH.


Besides, we may also regard the obstacles that Allah has set up for us is the tarbiyah from our God.
Yes. It is true.
When we talk about obstacles, it differs from one to another.
It is given by Allah which suit with our ability to face it.
It is clearly stated in the Al-Quran that Allah doesn't impose burdens which beyond one's limit.


It is true to say that sometime our life can be up and down.
Sometime, one lives in a very comfortable zone yet not encounter any extreme problems,
but at certain conditions, the problems that we have to face might make us down and keep frustrating about the fate that ALLAH has set at the Luh Mahfuz.
We are just the actors living in this world with no power but all of them are given by ALLAH.
However, just remember, what ALLAH has set up for us is the best.
There must be reasons on why ALLAH gave to you in such manner.


Dear someone,
be strong in confronting all the obstacles in your life.
thanks for the sharing which had made me to see things from different perspectives.
your story had strengthen my belief ,
"Allah does that to you is to increase your level of iman"
be strong!
not all of us encounter the same experience and problems that you are facing in your life.
just remember,
from what you have told to me,
the one and only thing that we can do is to go back to ALLAH.
let's put our high tawakal in HIM.
and you said,
in any obstacles that we face,
don't stop to think the 'hikmah' that ALLAH has prepared for us.
don't stop to think the hidden messages that ALLAH wants us to understand.
keep trying to eliminate the jahiliyyah slowly.
insyaALLAH, may ALLAH give you the great strength to control it.
insyaALLAH.

this is what we call TARBIYAH.
thanks Allah for widening my perspective!
