DZIKIR with 1 million of friends


(Doa: Rabb, putuskanlah qalbu kami dengan segala sesuatu yang tidak Engkau kehendaki)

The time was just already at 7 in that morning. The climate was clear n very mild and cool. By wearing all whites, children until grown up groups no matter what their ages and genders were having d same purpose, dzikir. They came from all over parts of Jakarta, and some from Bandung, Kalimantan and West Java.

The committee has organized that session very well n on schedule. Huge and wide fields have been covered by gigantic umbrella, sound systems set up perfectly and they also provided us lots of wudlu place. I saw a number of families brought their own praying items just in case they didn’t get any space. Meanwhile there were also amount of sellers were selling light snacks, mineral water, set of praying cloths and selling Islamic tapes.

At 09.00 AM sharp, Ustadz Arifin who has friendly n cool face lead our dzikir which was began by his tausiah (Islamic lecture). By his gentle n hospitable voice he invited us to still have a persistent on our belief. Eyes were tearing, souls seems very empty, all our acts seems so clearly and transparent ..something we did before that we should not doing .. astagfirullah al adziimmm – my body was trembling of my acts The Ustadz was gradually and very pleasant lead that moment for us to heal our qalb and our acts, as Allah will always forgive His Ummah no matter what their age n their mistakes and their genders. Allah’s forgiveness is much wider than our mistakes … so do not delay our apologizes to Allah and to all bros and sisters in this world.

Another hours passed by, a sea of whites moving slowly and orderly and mingling with other brothers and sisters in islam to have silaturahim and spending their rezeki in a modest way.

This activity was clearly made our hati, soul and our five senses became much humble n modest Insya Allah n should think to where we are going to after this dunia.
