Sepenggal cerita ........

Wanita yang senantiasa menunggu ku adalah Ibu..
yang senantiasa menanti kepulanganku..
yang selalu terpatri di depan pintu..
yang paras terkikis layu...

Wanita yang selalu menungguku adalah Ibu
yang senantiasa mengganti baju lusuhku
yang selalu membuka sepatu kerjaku
yang selalu membelaiku setiap waktu

Wanita yang selalu menungguku adalah Ibu
yang setengah abad tegar laksana batu
yang selalu setia menghampiriku
yang tak perna lelah hadir dalam tidurku

Sepengal cerita ...
Sosok wanita
dia adalah Ibu..

Senandung Duka..

Antara dua samudra kita terpisah
Cinta berpadu dalam sangsi
Hingga kita mencari bukti
Tentang arti sebuah cinta yang hakiki

Pada siapa ku aduhkan dukaku
Ketika cinta bukan lagi milikku
Bukan kah hanya pada- Nya ?
ALLAH Yang Maha Esa

Begitu sulit jalan yang aku lalui
Bila cinta memang perlu pengorbanan
Haruskah perpisahan jadi penyelesaian ?
Itu pilihan yang tak pernah ku pilih

Tapi biarlah kasih, tersenyumlah kita
Menerima keputusan dan kehendak- Nya
Sambil terus berdo'a semoga bahagia
Jadi milik kita
Selamanya.....

Otak dan Hati

[Media Puisi - Kisah Bijaksana] Ketika Rossulullah Ditanya oleh Zaid Bin Walid perihal anaknya :

"Hai Zaid Bin Walid sahabatku Jika Engkau aku suruh untuk memilih antara Otak dan hati mana yang akan engkau pilih ?"

Zaid menjawab:

"Sebaik baiknya pemberian Allah yang paling Mulia adalah HATI , jika aku mengikuti hati maka hati yang aku ikuti adalah NURANI , karena sebaik baiknya hati adalah NURANI yang di berikan Allah Swt kepada ku , maka aku akan mengikutinya"

lalu Rossullulah pun senyum , bagus bearti kamulah sebaik baiknya hati....

Demikianlah seperti yang Kita lakukan terhadap Asmara ,

Bukan lantaran karena HARTA ,KEKAYAAN, KECANTIKAN , BUKAN PULA KEPANDAIAN melainkan Kita mengikuti hati nurani untuk mengejar CINTA yang lebih mulia yaitu cinta yang tidak mengenal materi.

JIKA KITA YAKIN MAKA KITA BISA , JIKA KITA BISA MAKA KITA TERBIASA , JIKA KITA TERBIASA MAKA ALLAH YANG YANG AKAN MEMBANTU DALAM MENUNTUN LANGKAH , BUKANYA MANUSIA ATAU KAMU - KAMU SEKALIPUN......

Sebuah Pelajaran dari Tikus , Ayam dan Kambing.....

[Media Puisi - Kisah Bijaksana] Ada sebuha cerita yang kuharapkan Kita semua juga bisa menilainya :

Pada suatu malam si tikus ingin makan di tempat biasanya dia mengambil makanan di sebuah rumah di mana pemiliknnya sangat baik dan ramah , ketika suatu malam kali ini sang tikus tidak bisa mengambil makanan karena jalan menuju di sana ditutup oleh sang pemilik rumah , sehingga seketika dia mengabarkan berita ini ke kambing , apa jawab kambing ? yah bukan urusan saya karena itu mungkin bukan rejekimu , Kali ini dia berangkat ke ayam , jawaban dari ayam pun sama yah bukan urusan saya karena itu bukan jalanmu .akhirnya dengan wajah Gontai dia berangkat pulang karena menyesal ,

Keesokkan harinya sang ibu tuan rumah sakit maka minta di masakkan sup ayam , maka sang ayah menyembelih ayam , ayam ketakutan bukan kepalang dia memberitahukan ke kambing jawabannya adalah Tidak mau tahu , dia bicarakan ke Tikus jawabanya juga tidak tahu .

karena sakitnya parah maka ibu tuan rumah meninggal dan gantian ayah menyembelih kambing untuk para tamu , gantian sang kambing ketakutan karena sebentar lagi dia akan di sembelih , dia memberitahukan ke tikus jawabannya yah sama , tidak tahu.



Sobat , tahukah enggaku bahwa merasakan apa yang di rasakan orang lain adalah sesuatu yang sepatutnya kita lakukan


Jalaudin Rumi The Maestro

[Media Pusis - The Maestro ] Mawlānā Jalāl ad-Dīn Muḥammad Balkhī (مولانا جلال الدین محمد بلخى), also known as Jalāl ad-Dīn Muḥammad Rūmī (جلال‌الدین محمد رومی), but known to the English-speaking world simply as Rumi, (30 September 1207 – 17 December 1273), was a 13th-century Persian poet, Islamic jurist, and theologian.Rūmī is a descriptive name meaning "the Roman" since he lived most of his life in an area called Rūm because it was once ruled by the Byzantine Empire.

According to tradition, Rumi was born in Balkh, Bactria, in contemporary Afghanistan, which at that time was part of the Persian Empire. The hometown of his father's family; however, some Rumi scholars believe that he was born in Wakhsh,a small town located at the river Wakhsh in what is now Tajikistan. Wakhsh belonged to the larger province of Balkh, and in the year Rumi was born, his father was an appointed scholar there.Both these cities were at the time included in the Greater Persian cultural sphere of Khorāsān, the easternmost province of historical Persia,and were part of the Khwarezmian Empire.

His birthplace and native language both indicate a Persian heritage. Due to quarrels between different dynasties in Khorāsān, opposition to the Khwarizmid Shahs who were considered devious by Bahā ud-Dīn Walad (Rumi's father) or fear of the impending Mongol cataclysm,[his father decided to migrate westwards. Rumi's family traveled west, first performing the Hajj and eventually settling in the Anatolian city Konya (capital of the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum, now located in Turkey), where he lived most of his life, composed one of the crowning glories of Persian literature and profoundly affected the culture of the area.

He lived most of his life under the Sultanate of Rum, where he produced his works and died in 1273 CE. He was buried in Konya and his shrine became a place of pilgrimage.Following his death, his followers and his son Sultan Walad founded the Mawlawīyah Sufi Order, also known as the Order of the Whirling Dervishes, famous for its Sufi dance known as the samāʿ ceremony.

Rumi's works are written in the New Persian language. A Persian literary renaissance (in the 8th/9th century) started in regions of Sistan, Khorāsān and Transoxiana and by the 10th/11th century, it overtook Arabic as the literary and cultural language in the Persian Islamic world. Although Rumi's works were written in Persian, Rumi's importance is considered to transcend national and ethnic borders. His original works are widely read in their original language across the Persian-speaking world. Translations of his works are very popular in South Asian, Turkic, Arab, and Western countries. His poetry has influenced Persian literature as well as the literature of the Urdu, Bengali, Arabic and Turkish languages. His poems have been widely translated into many of the world's languages and transposed into various formats; BBC News has described him as the "most popular poet in America".

Rumi was born in Khorāsān, possibly in or near the city of Balkh. His life is described in Shams ud-Din Ahmad Aflāki's Manāqib ul-Ārifīn (written between 1318 and 1353). Rumi's father was Bahā ud-Dīn Walad, a theologian, jurist and a mystic from Balkh, who was also known during his lifetime as Sultan al-Ulama or "Sultan of the Scholars". His mother was Mu'mina Khātūn.

When the Mongols invaded Central Asia sometime between 1215 and 1220, Baha ud-Din Walad, with his whole family and a group of disciples, set out westwards. On the road to Anatolia, Rumi encountered one of the most famous mystic Persian poets, 'Attar, in the Iranian city of Nishapur, located in the province of Khorāsān. 'Attar immediately recognized Rumi's spiritual eminence. He saw the father walking ahead of the son and said, "Here comes a sea followed by an ocean." He gave the boy his Asrārnāma, a book about the entanglement of the soul in the material world. This meeting had a deep impact on the eighteen-year-old Rumi, and later on became the inspiration for his works.

From Nishapur, Walad and his entourage set out for Baghdad, meeting many of the scholars and Sufis of the city.[17] From there they went to Baghdad, and Hejaz and performed the pilgrimage at Mecca. The migrating caravan then passed through Damascus, Malatya, Erzincan, Sivas, Kayseri and Nigde. They finally settled in Karaman for seven years; Rumi's mother and brother both died there. In 1225, Rumi married Gowhar Khatun in Karaman. They had two sons: Sultan Walad and Ala-eddin Chalabi. When his wife died, Rumi married again and had a son, Amir Alim Chalabi, and a daughter, Malakeh Khatun.

On 1 May 1228, most likely as a result of the insistent invitation of 'Alā' ud-Dīn Key-Qobād, ruler of Anatolia, Baha' ud-Din came and finally settled in Konya in Anatolia within the westernmost territories of the Seljuk Sultanate of Rûm.

Baha' ud-Din became the head of a madrassa (religious school) and when he died, Rumi, aged twenty-five, inherited his position. One of Baha' ud-Din's students, Sayyed Burhan ud-Din Muhaqqiq Termazi, continued to train Rumi in the religious and mystical doctrines of Rumi's father. For nine years, Rumi practiced Sufism as a disciple of Burhan ud-Din until the latter died in 1240 or 1241. Rumi's public life then began: he became a teacher who preached in the mosques of Konya and taught his adherents in the madrassah.

During this period, Rumi also travelled to Damascus and is said to have spent four years there.

It was his meeting with the dervish Shams-e Tabrizi on 15 November 1244 that completely changed Rumi's life. Shams had traveled throughout the Middle East searching and praying for someone who could "endure my company". A voice said to him, "What will you give in return?" Shams replied, "My head!" The voice then said, "The one you seek is Jalal ud-Din of Konya." On the night of 5 December 1248, as Rumi and Shams were talking, Shams was called to the back door. He went out, never to be seen again. It is believed that Shams was murdered with the connivance of Rumi's son, 'Ala' ud-Din; if so, Shams indeed gave his head for the privilege of mystical friendship. Rumi, on a Persian/Iranian stamp.

Rumi's love for, and his bereavement at the death of, Shams found their expression in an outpouring of music, dance, and lyric poems, Divan-e Shams-e Tabrizi. He himself went out searching for Shams and journeyed again to Damascus. There, he realized:

Why should I seek? I am the same as
He. His essence speaks through me.
I have been looking for myself![18]

For more than ten years after meeting Shams, Mawlana had been spontaneously composing ghazals, and these had been collected in the Divan-i Kabir or Diwan Shams Tabrizi. Rumi found another companion in Salaḥ ud-Din-e Zarkub, a goldsmith. After Salah ud-Din's death, Rumi's scribe and favorite student, Hussam-e Chalabi, assumed the role of Rumi's companion. One day, the two of them were wandering through the Meram vineyards outside Konya when Hussam described to Rumi an idea he had had: "If you were to write a book like the Ilāhīnāma of Sanai or the Mantiq ut-Tayr of 'Attar, it would become the companion of many troubadours. They would fill their hearts from your work and compose music to accompany it." Rumi smiled and took out a piece of paper on which were written the opening eighteen lines of his Masnavi, beginning with:

Listen to the reed and the tale it tells,
How it sings of separation...

Hussam implored Rumi to write more. Rumi spent the next twelve years of his life in Anatolia dictating the six volumes of this masterwork, the Masnavi, to Hussam. In December 1273, Rumi fell ill; he predicted his own death and composed the well-known ghazal, which begins with the verse:

How doest thou know what sort of king I have within me as companion?
Do not cast thy glance upon my golden face, for I have iron legs.[20]

Rumi died on 17 December 1273 in Konya; his body was interred beside that of his father, and a splendid shrine, the Yeşil Türbe (Green Tomb, قبه الخضراء), was erected over his place of burial. His epitaph reads:

When we are dead, seek not our tomb in the earth, but find it in the hearts of men
