Iman Nawawi

Sedikit coretan tentang imam nawawi..

'Nama sebenar : Abu Zakaria Mohiuddin
Nawawi : merujuk kpd tempat lahir, Nawa, dekat Damascus
Lahir dlm tahun 631, bapanya seorang yg sgt alim dan 'virtuous'

Ketika kanak2 lain berumur 10 tahun sebaya Imam Nawawi asyik menghabiskan masa bermain2, Imam Nawawi sibuk dan asyik membaca Al-Quraan.

Dibawa oleh bapanya utk mendalami ilmu agama ke Damascus. Menimba ilmu dalam keadaan serba kekurangan. Tapi tetap mampu cemerlang.

Used to read 12 lessons and write explanations and commentary of every lesson everyday. Had devoted all his time for learning and scholarship. Make full benefits of 'kurniaan Allah - fast memory and deep thought' and had earned the highest degree of honour.

Respected for his piety, learning and excellent character. Used simple dress and ate simple food.

Died at the age of 45 but had written a large number of books on different subjects.'

Lihatlah kawan2 kecemerlangan a muslim scholar. Muslims scholars were excellent in all aspects - character, spiritual, EQ, IQ etc. To me, Imam Nawawi is one of them. Truly a scholar.

Kenapa kita tak 'study' dan 'publish' tentang 'muslim scholars' ni utk dijadikan contoh(role model) dan sumber inspirasi kepada kita, terutamanya kepada pencinta2 ilmu melayu.

Jom mencemerlangkan diri sebaik dan semampu yg mungkin.
