Assalamu’alaikum Warahmatullah Wabarakatuh

Warm regards and happiness to all of us

Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillahilladzi kholaqos-sab’a sama wa tin tibaqo. Asyhadu alla ilaha

illallah wa asyhadu anna muhammadar rasulullah. Allahumma sholli ala sayyidina
Muhammad, wa ala alihi wa sohbihi ajma’in.

Ladies and gentlemen;

First of all, let say thanks “Alhamdulillah” for all the blessings of faith, Islam, and
opportunity that Allah given to us, therefore we can welcome a moment of commemoration
of Isra Mi’raj of Prophet Muhammad SAW, 1445 H – year 2024

May peace and blessing of Allah be upon Muhammad SAW, the Messenger who Allah
invited to Mi’raj passing seven levels of the sky to Sidratul Muntaha for receiving the
command of Shalat.

Ladies and gentlemen;

We are blessed and should be happy because we can together welcome an incredible event
that full of lesson in the end Rajab, 1445 H.

Although, our country is in a hard time and full of pressure caused by pandemic, the hope to
keep moving forward should be maintained, because it is the key to face a test from Allah
SWT.

Every year, we usually commemorate Isra’ Mi’raj of the Prophet by organizing some events
such as; giving speech, recitation, or various kinds of competitions in term of Islam.

Indeed, there are so many ways to take a moment of Isra Miraj in this era, even though 1401
years have passed, but the purity of the Qur’an and Islam itself are still maintained.

So, what the lesson should we take on the commemoration of Isra Mi’raj of Prophet
Muhammad SAW in 2024?

My beloved Ladies and gentlemen;

Isra is a night journey of Prophet Muhammad SAW from Masjidil Haram to Masjidil Aqsa,
whereas Mi’raj is a prophet journey toward seven levels of the sky to Sidratul Muntaha.

Those two occurrences are occult events which are being evidence of the great power of
Allah. Allah’s power encompasses universe, sky, earth, and everything in it.

Talk about the journey, then to this day, how far have we travelled to achieve goodness?

Ladies and gentlemen;

Basically, we live in this world only for a short time, and that is a part of the journey. Day by
day, we as Muslims are expected to be willing for being a better person, more pious, more
obedient, increasingly reaching a noble character.

If we imagine, it is very difficult for sure. For things that seem like working hard and
studying hard, it is still difficult for us to be consistent, furthermore those that are unseen,
aren’t they?

But learning from the struggle of Prophet Muhammad SAW who then did Isra’ Mi’raj, then
we must believe and trust that Allah will always help His servants. Allah will always provide
convenience for them who want to repent and attain piety.

Ladies and gentlemen;

In life as a Muslim, we have certainly committed sins and mistakes. Yet, we are forbidden by
Allah to despair of Allah’s mercy. As devout Muslims, let us make a moment of Isra 'Mi'raj
1445 H as an additional passion to travel to leave behind those bad behaviors.

Rasulullah SAW said:

‫ِإَّنَك َلْن َتَدَع َش ْيئًا ِهَّلِل َع َّز َو َج َّل ِإَّال َبَّد َلَك ُهَّللا ِبِه َم ا ُهَو َخْيٌر َلَك ِم ْنُه‬

Meaning:

“Verily, you will never leave anything for the sake of Allah Almighty but that Allah will
replace it with something better.” (HR. Ahmad 5: 363)

Ladies and gentlemen;

From occurrences of Is’ra Mi’raj of Prophet Muhammad SAW, we can take a lesson that in
fact, Allah will always help His servants. Therefore, we as servants should never feel tired to
pray.

Hopefully, there are many changes in our selves for the better one, starting from today,
tomorrow, the day after tomorrow and so on.

That all are my speech, I am sorry for all the mistakes I made.

Wassalamu’alaikum Warahmatullah Wabarakatuh

Saudara-saudari yang berbahagia

Pertama-tama, marilah kita bersyukur dengan mengucapkan “Alhamdulillah” atas segala

nikmat yang telah Allah berikan kepada kita sehingga pada hari ini kita bisa berdiri, duduk,
serta tersenyum gembira menyambut momentum Isra’ Mi’raj Nabi Muhammad SAW 1445
Hijriah 2024 Masehi.

Shalawat dan salam mari kita hadiahkan kepada Nabi Akhir Zaman, Nabi dengan mukjizat
Al-Quran, Nabi yang Allah perjalankan melalui peristiwa Isra’ wal Mi’raj, Nabi Muhammad
SAW. Mudah-mudahan seiring dengan seringnya bershalawat kita akan mendapat
pertolongan beliau di Hari Akhir nanti.

Saudara-saudari yang dirahmati oleh Allah SWT;

Alhamdulillah pada tahun ini, kita diberi kesempatan umur oleh Allah SWT untuk bertamu ke
momentum 27 Rajab 1445 Hijriah yang bertepatan dengan peringatan Isra’ Mi’raj Rasulullah
SAW.

Meskipun sekarang negeri ini masih ditimpa cobaan yang berat berupa wabah, namun
semoga saja semangat diri, keluarga, dan umat terus terjaga dalam meraih takwa.
Berkisah tentang peristiwa luar biasa bertajuk Isra’ Mi’raj Nabi Muhammad SAW, maka kita
akan kembali teringat tentang pentingnya ibadah shalat.

Bagaimana tidak, shalat adalah ibadah spesial nan utama yang Allah perintahkan kepada
Rasulullah dan umat.

Sebagai bukti dari keutamaan perintah tersebut, Allah menjemput Nabi Muhammad SAW
melalui perantara malaikat Jibril dan Buraq agar Rasul bisa menjemput perintah shalat
melewati 7 lapis langit hingga ke Sidratul Muntaha.

Tidak hanya sekadar melewati langit, tapi Allah juga menunjukkan kekuasaan-Nya sebagai
Tuhan yang Maha Agung, Maha Kaya, lagi Maha Terpuji

Setelah melakukan perjalanan Mi’raj, Nabi Muhammad SAW melihat surga, neraka, dan
juga baitul makmur yang menjadi kiblatnya para malaikat. Itu adalah bukti bahwa janji Allah
benar-benar nyata.

Lalu, bagaimana dengan kisah kita sebagai umat akhir zaman di hari ini?

Seiring dengan berkembangnya teknologi dan berlalunya zaman, tantangan maupun ujian
hidup pun terasa berat. Kita saksikan, masjid megah makin banyak, tapi jamaah shalat
makin sepi.

Perdebatan antar sesama muslim gara-gara perselisihan pendapat semakin melunjak dan
membuat Islam seakan-akan tercerai-berai. Tidak sedikit orang berdebat tentang shalat, tapi
nyatanya mereka belum tentu melaksanakan shalat.

Teman-teman yang dirahmati Allah, kiranya, apa yang salah dari hal tersebut?

Yang salah tiada lain dan tiada bukan ialah shalatnya. Shalatnya belum benar, shalatnya
belum dengan hati, dan shalatnya belum benar-benar menghadirkan jasmani dan rohani
untuk menghadap Allah.

Kalaulah shalat kita benar dari segi niat, syariat, serta ilmunya, maka sungguh diri ini akan
menjadi pribadi yang lebih baik dan lebih dekat dengan takwa.

Allah berkalam dalam Al-Quran Surah Al-Ankabut ayat 45:

‫قَاَل هللا َت َع اَلى ِفي ُصوَر ة َاْلَع ْن َك ُبْو ت…ِإَّن ٱلَّص َلٰو َة َت ۡن َه ٰى َع ِن ٱۡل َفۡح َش ٓاِء َو ٱۡل ُمنَكِۗر َو َلِذ ۡك ُر ٱِهَّلل َأۡك َب ُۗر َو ٱُهَّلل َي ۡع َلُم َم ا‬
. ‫َتۡص َن ُعوَن‬
Saudara-saudari yang berbahagia;

Pada momentum Isra’ Mi’raj 1445 Hijriah tahun 2024 ini, marilah kita sama-sama berupa
untuk memperbaiki shalat. Memperbaiki shalat di sini tidak hanya sekadar menyempurnakan
gerakan dan bacaan, tetapi juga menyempurnakan niat, khusyuk, sekaligus menjadikan
shalat sebagai kebutuhan dalam hidup. Karena dunia ini hanyalah persinggahan, maka
sudah semestinya kita menyiapkan bekal yang banyak untuk persiapan di akhirat.

Saudara-saudari yang berbahagia;

Demikianlah pidato singkat yang bisa saya sampaikan pada kesempatan yang mulia ini.
Semoga bisa dipetik hikmah dan kebaikan darinya.
