Nisfu Sha'aban - Keluarga Ku Syurga Ku FotoPage

What is Nisfu Sha'aban? Well, it's the 15th day of Sha'aban, one of the months in Islamic Calendar. According to Islamic calendar, the day changes when the sun sets, not after 12 midnight of that day. Once the sun sets, it's a new calendar day already. Today is 14th Sha'aban, and after the sun sets, it will be 15th Sha'aban.

Well, what's the significant of Nisfu Sha'aban?

First of all, today is the day when our 'book' is changed. Each of us has 2 angels. One sits on the right and the other one sits on the left. Their duty every single day, every single hour, every single second is to write down our activities. The right angel will write all the good deeds we did and the left angel will write all the bad things, uhmm... it's actually sinful things we did. The 'bad' and 'sinful' have two different meanings. Some people say drinking alcohol is not a bad thing because everyone drinks, to show that they are 'modernized'. However, it's a sinful thing to do because in Quran, God says [Al-Maaidah, 90 - 91]:

Quote:

Bahasa translation:
[90] Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Bahawa sesungguhnya arak dan judi dan pemujaan berhala dan mengundi nasib dengan batang-batang anak panah, adalah (semuanya) kotor (keji) dari perbuatan Syaitan. Oleh itu hendaklah kamu menjauhinya supaya kamu berjaya.

[91] Sesungguhnya Syaitan itu hanyalah bermaksud mahu menimbulkan permusuhan dan kebencian di antara kamu dengan sebab arak dan judi dan mahu memalingkan kamu daripada mengingati Allah dan daripada mengerjakan sembahyang. Oleh itu, mahukah kamu berhenti (daripada melakukan perkara-perkara yang keji dan kotor itu atau kamu masih berdegil)?

English translation:
[90] O ye who believe! alcohol and gambling, (dedication of) stones, and (divination by) arrows, are an abomination of Satan's handiwork: eschew such (abomination), that ye may prosper.

[91] Satan's plan is (but) to excite enmity and hatred between you, with alcohol and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of Allah, and from prayer: will ye not then abstain?

So every Nisfu Sha'aban, our book will be taken above and a new chapter of our life will start. At the day of judgement, our books will be revealed to remind us all the things we've done and will be rewarded or punished accordingly.

Secondly, Nisfu Sha'aban, is the day Ibu and Ayah solemnized our marriage. So tonite is Ibu and Ayah's 3rd year wedding anniversary according to Islamic Calendar.
