Ia mempunyai kelebihan daripada bulan lain dan merupakan peluang untuk kita melipatgandakan 4.47 4.57 6.15 6.37 12.22 3.29 6.27 7.37 12 151 29 B amal ibadah kita kepada Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala, sama ada amalan-amalan fardu atau sunat. 4.46 4.56 6.14 6.37 12.22 3.30 6.27 7.37 13 5-)5) 1 RAMADAN Bulan Ramadan merupakan waktu terbaik untuk kita mendidik diri kita ke arah kebaikan kerana pada bulan ini, kita bukan sahaja diwajibkan untuk berpuasa dan mengawal hawa nafsu, bahkan 14 4)*7 2 4.46 4.56 6.14 6.36 12.22 3.30 6.27 7.37 dituntut untuk memperbanyakkan amalan-amalan sunat. Antara amalan sunat yang dianjurkan untuk dilakukan di sepanjang bulan Ramadan adalah 15 0) 15 3 4.45 4.55 6.14 6.36 12.21 3.30 6.27 7.37 bersahur. Ulamak sepakat mengatakan, bahawa hukum makan sahur adalah sunat. Sahur, bukan sahaja memberikan tenaga untuk kita berpuasa di siang hari, malah ia juga mengandungi keberkatan. 16 7 ))6 4 4.45 4.55 6.13 6.36 12.21 3.31 6.27 7.37 Bersahur merupakan perbuatan yang membezakan puasa umat Islam dengan puasa penganut agama lain. 17 5)*67 5 4.44 4.54 6.13 6.35 12.21 3.31 6.27 7.37 Memperbanyakkan amalan sedekah tidak kira kecil atau besar kerana ia sangat digalakkan dalam Islam, terutama sekali dalam bulan Ramadan kerana dengan bersedekah dapat meringankan beban 18 )0), 6 4.44 4.54 6.13 6.35 12.21 3.32 6.27 7.37 mana-mana anggota masyarakat yang berhajat dan memerlukan bantuan. Selain daripada bersedekah, amalan memberi makan kepada orang yang berpuasa atau menyungkaikan juga amat digalakkan. Sembahyang Sunat Tarawih Berjemaah, sama ada di masjid, surau atau balai ibadat kerana sesungguhnya barang siapa yang menghidupkan malam-malam di bulan Ramadan dengan memperbanyakkan sembahyang sunat kerana iman dan mengharapkan ganjaran daripada Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala akan diampunkan dosa-dosanya yang telah lalu. Jangan sekali-kali meninggalkan Sembahyang Sunat Witir kerana ia merupakan 151 5-)5) 4)*7 Sembahyang Sunat Muaakad (Sunat yang Dituntut) yang mengiringi Sembahyang Sunat Tarawih. Sembahyang Witir bukan hanya dikhususkan di bulan Ramadan sahaja, bahkan sunat didirikan pada setiap malam. Bulan Ramadan merupakan bulan Al-Quran, oleh itu, perbanyakanlah membaca Al-Quran pada bulan Ramadan setiap waktu, sekurang-kurangnya satu juz setiap hari, agar dapat khatam Al-Quran sekali dalam bulan Ramadan. Amal-amal ibadah lain, seperti memperbanyakkan sembahyang sunat, membaca Al-Quran, berzikir, bersembahyang fardu berjemaah di masjid, qiamullail dan seumpamanya. Di samping itu jagalah adab ketika berpuasa, iaitu menjaga diri daripada melakukan perkara-perkara yang diharamkan, seperti menjaga pandangan, pendengaran, percakapan, perbuatan daripada perkara-perkara yang diharamkan dan sia-sia. Begitu juga menahan perut daripada makan makanan dan minuman yang syubhah apatah lagi yang haram, terutamanya ketika berbuka puasa dan bersahur. Selain daripada persediaan rohani, apa yang penting juga kita perlu menjaga kesihatan kerana dengan tubuh badan yang sihat akan memudahkan kita menjalankan ibadah puasa dan ibadah-ibadah lainnya. Laksana amal ibadah dengan niat yang

  • Royalty, Women, and Ideology in the Sultanate of Brunei Darussalem
    2020 VII Marching to the Beat of a Different Drum: Royalty, Women, and Ideology in the Sultanate of Brunei Darussalem Ann Black Article: Marching to the Beat of a Different Drum: Royalty, Women, and Ideology in the Sultanate of Brunei Darussalam Marching to the Beat of a Different Drum: Royalty, Women, and Ideology in the Sultanate of Brunei Darussalam Ann Black UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND Abstract: Unlike the other monarchies considered in this issue, where the focus was on the relationship between the monarch and gender justice within a framework of democratic constitutionalism, Brunei is a case study of monarchy and gender justice in an absolute monarchy. Although this monarchical model is out of step with reforms elsewhere it accords with familiar, albeit rejected, antecedents in western thought. Plato’s Republic idealised rule by a philosophical, benevolent, and wise dictator and the medieval writings of Christian theologians like St Augustine and St Thomas Aquinas further developed the concept of a king ruling by divine right but with a duty to rule according to divine natural law as interpreted through Christian theology. In Muslim polities, a parallel concept is rule by Allah’s vice regent: a Sultan mandated by, and answerable only to, Allah [God]. Today in the Sultanate of Brunei this ancient, and arguably anachronistic, form of governance successfully operates in an ethnic, religious, and culturally plural society. This article postulates that unlike the monarchies of Europe and Japan where “divine rule” was discarded, Brunei’s Constitution endorses rule by divine will. With all power—executive, legislative, judicial and religious—consolidated in the hands of one man, the consequence is a stable and affluent society but at the expense of liberties and rights for its people.
