Doa Waktu Pagi Untuk Mengelak Musibah ..............

 

Doa Mengelak Musibah 

Dari Aban bin Osman, bahwa Nabi SAW. bersabda: “Sesiapa membaca ‘BISMILLAAHIL LAZII LAA YADURRU MA’AS MIHI SYAI’UN FIL ARDI WALA FIS SAMAA’ WAHUWAS SAMII’UL ‘ALIIM’ Maksudnya : "Dengan nama Allah, dengan nama-Nya tidak akan berbahaya sesuatu yang ada di bumi dan di langit, dan Dia Maha Mendengar lagi Maha Mengetahui", sebanyak tiga kali, maka dia tidak akan ditimpa musibah hingga malam hari, dan sesiapa membacanya di waktu malam maka tidak akan ditimpa musibah hingga pagi hari, dengan izin Allah.” (Hadis Riwayat Ahmad no 497) 

Satu ketika Aban bin Osman telah ditimpa musibah mendadak di mana dia telah ditimpa penyakit lumpuh. Sahabat hairan mengapa Aban boleh mengalami musibah, padahal dia yang telah meriwayatkan hadis doa menolak musibah. Maka Aban bin Usman dengan jujur mengakui bahwa pada hari itu dia telah terlupa membaca doa tersebut. 

 

 

Sedekah Pagi Mengelak Musibah

Selain daripada berdoa kita juga amat dituntut untuk bersedekah pada waktu pagi untuk mengelak daripada sebarang musibah.

Nabi SAW berwasiat kepada Saidina Ali k.wj maksudnya : "Wahai Ali ! Sedekah yang sembunyi-sembunyi itu dapat mereda murka Allah dan dapat menarik rezeki dan berkah yang banyak. Maka berpagi-pagilah kalau bersedekah. Kerana sesungguhnya bahaya itu turun pagi hari, sebelum bahaya turun, bersedekahlah sehingga dapat menolak bahaya di udara."

Semoga doa dan sedekah yang kita amalkan setiap pagi kerana Allah, dapat melindungi diri kita daripada sebarang musibah. Aminn!!!

Garlic Knots .....

 

 

 

 

Ingredients:

2 lbs. store-bought pizza dough, thawed at room temperature
All purpose flour, for rolling out dough
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon finely chopped Italian flat leaf parsley
Salt

Method:

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Divide the dough in half, keeping half covered under a kitchen towel. Roll out the other half on a lightly floured surface with a rolling pin, creating a 10-inch square. If the dough is very stiff, use your hands to stretch it.
Cut the 10-inch square in half with a sharp knife or pizza wheel to form two rectangles. Cut each rectangle into 12 strips (the cuts should be made so that the strips are shorter and thicker, rather than longer and thinner).
Tie each strip into a knot and then arrange the knots on the lined baking sheets. Cover them with a kitchen towel while you repeat the rolling, cutting and tying process with the second half of the dough.
Bake the knots for 5 minutes, then rotate the baking sheet and bake an additional 5 minutes or until golden brown and fully cooked.
While knots bake, grate the garlic cloves using a Microplane and combine with olive oil and butter in a small sauce pan over low heat. Cook just until butter has melted and mixture is warmed. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley.
Immediately after baking, brush the baked knots with the garlic mixture and sprinkle with kosher salt. Serve warm.
