Harun Yahya Conference
Alhamdulillah, pada hari ini saya berkesempatan untuk bersama menyertai "Harun Yahya Conference", bertempat di Masjid Bandaraya Kota Kinabalu. Saya ditugaskan untuk mengurus 40 pelajar PPISMP dan PISMP IPG Kampus Keningau yang menyertai conference tersebut.
Dua tajuk telah dibentangkan oleh dua orang penceramah dari Turki, iaitu "Islam and Science" yang disamapaikan oleh Dr. Ahmet Aktar Babuna dan "Miracles of the Quran", disampaikan oleh Mr. Turgut Aksu.
Sesi rumusan dan soal jawab telah dikendalikan oleh Brother Shahkirit Kakulal Govindji. Banyak persoalan telah dikemukakan oleh para peserta, antaranya ialah Isra' mikraj dari perspektif sains, teori yang dikemukakan oleh Darwin, kejadian syurga dan neraka dan lain-lain.
Sebelum mengakhiri majlis, Brother Shah telah menyeru supaya umat Islam bersatu padu, jangan berpecah belah sebagaimana firman Allah surah 3 ayat 103. Beliau juga meminta supaya para peserta menyebarkan ilmu yang diperoleh dalam conference ini kepada orang lain mengikut kemampuan masing-masing.
Saya salin balik point-point yang diberi oleh dua penceramah tadi untuk perkongsian bersama sekadar kemampuan saya.
THE QUR'AN LEADS THE WAY TO SCIENCE
Those who remember God, standing, sitting and lying on their sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth:'Our Lord, You have not created this for nothing. Glory be to You! So safeguard us from the punishment of the Fire. (Surat Al 'Imran: 191)
Do they not look at the sky above them? How We have made it and adorned it, and there are no flaws in it? And the earth- We have spread it out, and set thereon mountains standing firm, and produced therein every kind of beautiful growth (in pairs)- To be observed and commemorated by every devotee turning (to God). And We send down from the sky rain charged with blessing, and We produce therewith gardens and grain for harvests; And tall (and stately) palm-trees, with shoots of fruit-stalks, piled one over another. (Surah Qaf: 6-10)
He Who created the seven heavens one above another: No want of proportion will you see in the Creation of (God) Most Gracious. So turn your vision again: do you see any flaw? (Surat al-Mulk: 3)
Now let man but think from what he is created! (Surat at-Tariq: 5)
Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made? And at the Sky, how it is raised high? And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm? And at the Earth, how it is spread out? (Surat al-Ghashiyah: 17-20)
Belief in God Makes Scientists Enthusiastic and Motivated
As Prophet Muhammad, God's Messenger, peace be upon him, said, they act by knowing that "One who goes out to search for knowledge is (devoted) to the cause of God till he returns." Tirmidhi 220
Believing Scientists' "Eagerness to Serve"
Prophet Muhammad, God's Messenger, peace be upon him, also referred to the harms of this mentality. He said:
"Do not acquire knowledge in order to fall into polemics with other scholars and prove his superiority over them, or to dispute with the ignorant or to attract the attention of the people."
"God calls down blessings on those who instruct people in beneficial knowledge".
RELIGION HELPS SCIENCE TO BE RIGHTLY GUIDED
God created all living things. Moreover, these creatures act through the inspiration of God, as quoted in the Qur'an in the example of the honeybees, with the verse that begins with, "Your Lord inspired the bees…" (Surat an-Nahl: 68)
It is God Who causes the seed-grain and the date stone to split and sprout. He causes the living to issue from the dead, and He is the One to cause the dead to issue from the living. That is God: then how are you deluded away from the truth? (Surat al-An'am: 95)
To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth: It is He Who gives Life and Death; and He has Power over all things. (Surat al-Hadid: 2)
And among His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the living creatures that He has scattered through them: and He has power to gather them together when He wills. (Surat ash-Shura: 29)
And God has created every animal from water: of them there are some that creep on their bellies; some that walk on two legs; and some that walk on four. God creates what He wills for, surely, God has power over all things. (Surat an-Nur: 45)
He created the heavens without any pillars that you can see; He set on the earth mountains standing firm, lest it should shake with you; and He scattered through it beasts of all kinds. We send down rain from the sky, and produce on the earth every kind of noble creature, in pairs. Such is the Creation of God: now show Me what is there that others besides Him have created: no, but the transgressors are in manifest error. (Surah Luqman: 10-11)
Surely in the heavens and the earth, are signs for those who believe. And in the creation of yourselves and the fact that animals are scattered (through the earth), are signs for those of assured faith. (Surat al-Jathiyyah: 3-4)

Kelebihan ilmu yang bermanfaat
فصل في فضيلة العلم النافع
Bermula kelebihan ilmu yang memberi manfaat itu amat banyak sebagaimana yang dijelaskan di dalam al quran dan hadis nabi SAW, Antaranya firman Allah SWT:
يَرْفَعِ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آَمَنُوا مِنْكُمْ وَالَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ دَرَجَاتٍ وَاللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرٌ
Allah akan meninggikan orang-orang yang beriman di antaramu dan orang-orang yang diberi ilmu pengetahuan beberapa darjat dan Allah maha mengetahui apa yang kamu kerjakan.
Dalam ayat ini Allah sebut darjat yang Allah nak angkat bagi orang beriman dan berilmu. Orang yang beriman dan ada ilmu pengetahuan lebih tinggi darjatnya daripada orang yang beriman tapi tidak berilmu.
Ada juga pendapat mengatakan bahawa maksud orang berilmu di sini ialah orang yang membaca quran, alim dalam bidang quran. Dalam satu hadis nabi SAW bagitahu bahawa Allah SWT mengangkat sesuatu kaum dengan al quran dan Allah merendahkan kaum yang lain juga dengan al Quran.
Allah sebut:
بَلْ هُوَ آَيَاتٌ بَيِّنَاتٌ فِي صُدُورِ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ وَمَا يَجْحَدُ بِآَيَاتِنَا إِلَّا الظَّالِمُونَ
Sebenarnya, Al Quran itu adalah ayat-ayat yang nyata di dalam dada orang-orang yang diberi ilmu. dan tidak ada yang mengingkari ayat-ayat kami kecuali orang-orang yang zalim.
Abdullah bin Abbas berkata;
"Bagi ulama itu beberapa pangkat di atas pangkat orang mukminin dengan 700 pangkat yang mana beza antara tiap-tiap dua pangkat itu perjalanan 500 tahun."
Dalam ilmu mustholah hadis, kata Abdullah bin Abbas di sini dinamakan hadis mauquf, juga dikenali sebagai athsar.
Abdullah bin Abbas terkenal dengan jolokan حبر الأمة وترجمان القرآن - pena bagi ummat dan pentafsir praktikal bagi quran. Beliau adalah anak kepada bapa saudara nabi SAW.
Firman Allah SWT:
إِنَّمَا يَخْشَى اللَّهَ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ الْعُلَمَاءُ
Sesungguhnya yang takut kepada Allah di antara hamba-hamba-Nya, hanyalah ulama. Maksud dengan ulama dalam ayat ini ialah orang-orang yang mengetahui kebesaran dan kekuasaan Allah. Orang mengetahui- maknanya orang berilmu.
Sebab itu kalau seseorang semakin banyak belajar, semakin derhaka kepada Allah, semakin tinggi ijazah semakin nak lawan hukum Allah maka itu tandanya ilmu yang dimiliki tiada manfaat baginya atau dengan kata lain orang itu sebenarnya tidak berilmu.
Dalam bahasa Arab, kalimah ulama' ialah kata jamak (plural) bagi alim. Kalimah alim (عالم) ertinya seorang alim, kalau ramai orang alim kita kata ulama (علماء).
Di antara hadis nabi SAW berkenaan kelebihan ilmu yang bermanfaat ini sabda nabi SAW maksudya:
"Ulama itu adalah pewaris nabi". Hadis ini daripada Abi Darda', riwayat Abi Daud dan Ibn Majah. Sanadnya adalah sahih.
والله أعلم
