Bagaimana Cara Kita Merawati Sifat Hasad Dengki

Bagaimana Cara Kita Merawati Sifat Hasad Dengki

- Ustaz Iqbal Zain Al-Jauhari >>> Darul Muhibbin

Pertama
- Kita mengakui dalam diri kita bahawa dalam kita ada sifat hasad dengki, melalui kesedaran itu kita membenci sifat yang ada dalam diri kita 

Kedua
- Kita berdoa pada orang yang kita hasad. Sesiapa yang kita lihat mempunyai kelebihan dan kita mempunyai sifat hasad dengki padanya maka kita doakan kelebihan padanya. Kita doakan semoga ALLAH tambahkan rezeki dan nikmat padanya dan berkati apa yang telah ALLAH kurniakan padanya 

Jika ada seseorang mengatakan lidah saya mungkin boleh berdoa kepadanya tetapi mungkin hati saya tak nak, hati saya enggan...

Contohnya saya berdoa pada orang itu "ya ALLAH tambahkan rezeki padanya" namun hati saya kata jangan tambahkan, walaupun dalam keadaan sebegitu sekalipun...teruskan berdoa..teruskan berdoa..

Jika hati memberontak...maka kita minta pertolongan kepada ALLAH - "Ya ALLAH aku berlepas diri daripada segala yang terbit daripada hatiku dan aku hanya mampu ya ALLAH untuk menggerakkan lidahku untuk berdoa kepadanya ya ALLAH "

....apa yang kita tidak mampu kita minta pertolongan daripada ALLAH 

Ketiga
- Jika timbul sifat hasad ini, maka kita ucapkan taniah pada orang itu

Ke-empat
- Orang yang diberikan kelebihan itu kita bantu dia 

Ke-Lima
- Jika datang sifat hasad dalam diri maka kita jangan layan. Kita kawal sifat ini jangan sampai sifat ini terkeluar dari ucapan kita atau perbuatan kita kerana Ulamak mengatakan "Jika timbul sifat hasad dengki dalam diri manusia maka simpan saja didalam hati kerana keberangkalian seseorang itu terlepas daripada sifat hasad dengki selagi berada dalam hatinya adalah lebih besar daripada seorang yang mempunyai sifat hasad dengki mengucapkannya dengan kata-kata ataupun perbuatan

Terakhir.
- Rawatan mujarab untuk mengubati sifat hasad dengki yang berada dalam diri manusia adalah kita zahirkan nama-nama ALLAH Ta'ala ( Asma ul Husna )

Tausiyah @ Rahsia Perkahwinan

Cendol oh Cendol disediakan oleh mamak haji..

peniaga-peniaga Mamak yang di tanah Jawa membawa resipi ini Ke Pulau Pinang dan Singapura semasa mereka berhijrah ke Tanah Besar Tanah Melayu atas galakan Penjajah British membawa masuk golongan peniaga. Dari dulu orang melayu suka bantu bangsa lain berniaga dan kutip duit Tol. Walau pun resipi Cendol telah berubah mengikut peredaran zaman dan ia tetap menjadi kegemaran Makanan desert bagi semua kaum di-Malaysia, di Indonesia, Singapura dan Brunei.
Dalam resepi cendol mamak haji perkenalkan dua jenis tepung untuk bahan asas satu menggunakan tepung kacang hijau dan satu hari ini menggunakan tepung BERAS bersama dengan tepung "Hoen kwe"..sahabat tahu kan tepung ini?. Tepung sangat popular untuk buat kuih di Indonesia. Kalau takat berniaga tak perlu gunakan tepung ini..ganti dengan tepung ubi atau jagung pun ok juga. Tapi biaq cendol kita buat makan di rumah, "Biaq sama tapi tak serupa"...hahaha!.

AIR KAPUR :

Bila sebut air kapur ramai yang salah anggap. Ada yang ambil kapur sireh itu masukkan terus dalam resepi. Akhirnya bila siap.. rasa hidangan terasa kapur dan lidah terasa panas dan lidas. Apa itu sebenarnya air kapur?. Sukatan air kapur atau air kapur sirih yang terdapat dalam resepi Indonesia sebenarnya disediakan seperti ini: masukkan kapur makan atau sirih itu dalam sebuah gelas..kalau paras kapur nya 1 bahagian, gunakan paras air 2 bahagian. Bancuh airnya. Biarkan ia mendak. Yang air yang di atas itulah dinamakan AIR KAPUR. Jangan gunakan kapur yg mendak tu yea. Biasanya air ini kalau dibiarkan semalaman anda akan dapat hasil yang terbaik. Air kapur biasanya digunakan buat cendol, kueh rempeyek atau tepung goreng pisang. Bila gunakan airnya saja..anda tidak rasa bau kapur atau lidas lidah anda.
Apalah mamak haji air kapur pun bagi tau jugak kah?..Ini ada sebab kerana tak salah anggap bila buat resepi cendol nanti..

Jom kita tengok resepi cendol. Kalau ada sahabat yang punya tip dan pernah buat cendol kita kongsi di komen yea..kita ceriakan bahagian komen, tapi jangan kutuk orang baru yang bertanya...kesian kat dia beri jawapan yang betul. Sharing Is Caring.
BAHAN-BAHAN YANG DIPERLUKAN:
- 125gm tepung beras (1 cawan).
- 20gm tepung Hoen Kwe.
- 50gm tepung ubi/kanji.
- 200ml air pandan (2 cawan).
- 3/4 sdm. Air Kapur.
- 1 sudu kecil garam.
- secubit pewarna hijau.

CARA-CARA PENYEDIAAN:
1. Untuk mendapatkan Air Pandan,Potong 4-5 daun pandan kira 2 inci. dan masukkan 2 dan 1/2 cawan air dalam mesin pengisar(Blender). Masukkan pewarna dan kisar sehingga halus. Tapis airnya dan sediakan dua cawan untuk adunan.

2. Ambil sebuah bekas masukkan tepung beras, tepung Hoen Kwe, tepung ubi, garam dan air pandan, adun rata dan masukkan air kapur dan kacau rata.

3. Masukkan dalam periok dan panaskan dengan api yang sederhana..sentiasa kacau adunan. Bila adunan mula pekat kecilkan api dapur. Kacau sehingga adunan menjadi kilat dan mula mendidih berlopak. Matikan api dapur. Walau api dapur dimatikan kita perlukan adunan itu sentiasa panas untuk tidak menjadi keras sebelum cendol dibentuk melalui acuan muruku. Dengan sebab ini kita perlu sediakan sebuah bekas yang menampung sekurang-kurangnya 500ml air panas dan bekas adunan yang digunakan masak. Bila adunan telah dikeluarkan dari dapur letak bekas itu di atas bekas yang mengandungi air panas..sebenarnya kita panaskan double bottom.

4. Dalam pada itu siapkan sebuah bekas air yang mengandungi air ais.

5. Ambil bekas buat muruku (atau alat pelenyek ubi kentang), masukkan adunan dan mula kenakan tekanan adunan itu jatuh ke dalam bekas yang mengandungi air ais. Panjang cendol yang baik ada 1 inci lebih. Jangan pendek sangat. Bekas muruku yang terbaik buatan dari kayu atau plastik. Jenis yang diperbuat dari logam ..akan panas dan sukar untuk anda memutarnya.

6. Buat sampai adunan habis. Air yang cendol berada itu jangan buang kerana ia mengandungi air kapur boleh melambatkan cendol basi dan juga santan semasa bancuh cendol.
7. Simpan di peti sejuk sehingga anda ingin gunakan buat air cendol, cendol ABC atau pun agar-agar cendol yang lazat. selamat mencuba. Air gula dan santan mamak haji terangkan selepas ini.

BLACK TOMATOES 

UK garden center grows Britain's first black tomatoes which contains antioxidants said to have health benefits.

The unusual fruit, which has a jet black skin, is among the first in the world to contain anthocyanins, an antioxidant thought to have a number of health benefits. Ray Brown, 66, who runs Plant World Seeds, first came across the unusual fruit when a customer sent him a mystery package entitled 'black tomato'.

The tomatoes are believed to have been developed at Oregon State University, in America, forming part of their 'Indigo Rose' project. They are ripe when their colour changes from a shiny blue-purple to an almost jet black, with the bottoms of the tomatoes turning red.

No Bake Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Balls by easy recipes

No Bake Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Balls

1-18 oz. jar of smooth or chunky peanut buter - I prefer smooth
1 - 16 oz. bag of confectioners sugar
1/4 c. butter, melted
chocolate almond bark
or
chocolate candy melts
or
12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips & 2 tsp. shortening

In a large bowl, stir together the peanut butter, confectioners sugar and melted butter until the mixture is crumbly. For the next step, the best way that I've found to make a smooth filling is to use your hands to mix everything together.

Line a baking sheet with foil. Roll the peanut butter filling into 1 inch balls and line the baking sheet with rows of the balls. Set the baking sheet in the freezer for 5-7 minutes to chill the peanut butter balls for easier dipping.

While the peanut butter balls are chilling, melt the chocolate in the microwave in a microwave safe bowl that is deep enough for dipping. I melted 6 blocks of chocolate almond bark at a time, stirring at 45 second intervals until smooth.

Remove the baking sheet from the freezer. Insert a toothpick or wooden skewer into a peanut butter ball and then dip it into the chocolate, turning quickly to cover the entire candy. Place onto a second baking tray that has also been lined with foil. Swirl the chocolate on the top of each candy for a pretty design. Refrigerate until the chocolate had completely dried.

Store the candies in a sealed container in the refrigerator.

**Warning** These little candies are very addictive!!

macam-macam :Ikan jadi pondan akibat pencemaran

Barcelona: Ketika seluruh Britain melaporkan keadaan berdebu yang teruk, ikan di Sepanyol membuktikan kesan pencemaran terhadap alam sekitar itu sendiri.

Ahli kumpulan Sel Biologi dalam Toksikologi Alam Sekitar menemui bukti bahawa ikan jantan di Basque Country menjadi ‘betina’ akibat pencemaran kimia di dalam air.

Pengarah kumpulan penyelidikan terbabit, Miren P Cajaraville dalam satu kenyataan berkata keputusan menunjukkan bahawa gangguan endokrin ini adalah fenomena yang menjadi punca masalah itu.

“Jika ia dikesan di negara lain bermakna kita sedang berdepan dengan masalah pencemaran. Kami juga mengesahkan hubung kait antara pencemaran dan fenomena ikan jantan menjadi ‘betina’,” katanya.

Jurnal alam sekitar, Marine Enviromental Research melaporkan bahan kimia pengganggu sistem endokrin (EDCs) bertindak seperti estrogen iaitu hormon seks betina utama yang meresap ke dalam air dan menyebabkan gangguan perkembangan dan reproduktif.

Bahan kimia terbabit ditemui dalam produk harian seperti racun serangga, pil perancang dan bahan pencuci.

Ia dikatakan memasuki muara selepas melalui sistem pembersihan di dalam loji rawatan air atau hasil daripada aktiviti industri dan perladangan.
Penyelidik melakukan kajian terhadap lima populasi ikan belanak dari pantai Basque dan apa yang dipanggil ‘penyakit interseks’ dikesan terhadap tiga daripada sampel ini. AGENSI

Cinnamon

One on the reasons i LOVE Cinnamon
WOW!! GOOD TO KNOW ~~~

Cinnamon is used in traditional medicine, and several studies have tested chemicals extracted from cinnamon for various possible medicinal effects.

Helps protect you from cancer:
In a study done by the USDA (United States Agricultural Department), it was found that cinnamon extract was a potent weapon against leukaemia and lymphomas. The study found that the extract worked by blocking the path of certain components that were important for the regeneration of the cell, inhabited the further multiplication of cancerous cells, and slowly reduced their spread. It also found that the higher the amount of extract the better the results. Remarkably, the extract only inhibited the growth of unhealthy cells and left the healthy cells untouched unlike conventional therapies like chemotherapy, etc.

Tip: Add cinnamon to your daily diet either by sprinkling it on your food or with honey.

Relieves arthritic pain:
Cinnamon is packed with a compound known as cinnamomum, which has very strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that make it a great home remedy for arthritic pain. Its natural heating mechanism provides added relief to aching joints. Read more about how exercise can help you to prevent arthritic pain.

Tip: Grind cinnamon into a fine paste with water and apply on the aching joints. You can place a soft muslin cloth on the paste to keep the paste wet for longer.

Helps in digestion:
Cinnamon is packed with mineral manganese, fibre, essential oils and calcium. The calcium and fibre combine with bile salts and help in their transport outside the body. The essential oils, help regulate the action of gastric juices on food, improves digestion, assimilation and its anti inflammatory properties helps reduce the inflammation caused due to indigestion, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and ulcers. Moreover the fibre content helps to relieve constipation and diarrhoea.

Tip: To relieve a stomach upset have cinnamon tea infused with mint leaves about two to three times a day.

Helps with weight loss:
Cinnamon has great digestive properties, it helps with weight loss by regulating the breakdown of carbohydrates and the production and use of insulin by the body. It also helps improve the digestion and assimilation of food within the body, helping one lose weight.

Tip: Drink cinnamon tea with a teaspoon of honey every day, half an hour before breakfast. Alternatively you could add cinnamon powder to your meal by sprinkling it on your salad, coffee or other foods.

Helps beat acne:
Cinnamon is a common spice and flavouring agent but the essential oil it contains also has strong anti-microbial properties. The water activity of honey is very low and this means that it does not contain a lot of moisture which can promote the growth of microorganisms. Considering that pimples often arise from an infection within the pores of the skin, combining cinnamon with honey is an effective remedy.

Tip: Crush a little cinnamon, and add a bit of honey to make it into a paste. Now apply it on the pimple and leave for a few minutes. You can leave it on overnight also for added benefit. Wash off the paste with warm water and watch that pimple vanish.

Helps cure a cold and cough:
Known for its antibiotic and body warming properties, cinnamon is a formidable remedy against a cold and cough. It not only helps to relieve the congestion commonly experienced with a cold, it is also great for a sore throat when combined with ginger, tulsi and honey.

Tip: Boil a small crushed piece of ginger, a few leaves of tulsi leaves, crushed black pepper in two cups of water. Cover the vessel with a lid and let the mixture boil at a low heat. When the solution has simmered for about ten minutes, strain the liquid, add a teaspoon of honey and drink. It should be warm. This solution will not only soothe an irritated throat, it will also clear up the blocked nasal passage and sinuses.

Beats heart disease and atherosclerosis:
Packed with fibre and calcium, cinnamon is great for the heart. Since the fibre and calcium and help transport bile salts outside the body, the body produces more bile salts for other bodily functions by breaking down cholesterol. This directly translates to lower cholesterol levels which protect the heart from blockages and the arteries from atherosclerosis..

Tip: Have a teaspoon of cinnamon powder everyday on an empty stomach. You can add honey or drink it with warm water.

Fights tooth decay:
Cinnamon oil is known for its antibacterial properties. It is essentially good for the teeth and gums. Cinnamon not only beats tooth decay but also helps prevent gingivitis and bad breath.

Tip: If you are suffering from bad breath, gargle with cinnamon infused water (cinnamon boiled in water). For toothache and gingivitis, chew on a small piece of cinnamon, to get some relief.

Anti-viral
In an experiment testing the effects of various plants used in traditional Indian medicine, an extract of Cinnamomum cassia had an effect on HIV-1. Another study found that eugenol, a chemical found in cinnamon essential oils, and in other plants, inhibited the replication of the virus causing herpes in vitro. The compound cinnzeylanine, from C. zeylanicum, also had antiviral properties in a model system using silkworm cells.

Diabetes
Two studies have shown that including cinnamon and cinnamon extract in the diet may help type 2 diabetics to control blood glucose levels. One study used C. cassia, while the other study used an extract (made from "Chinese Cinnamomum aromaticum", an older name for C. cassia). Apart from the most common flavanol (epi)catechin and (epi)afzelechin, cinnamon proanthocyanidins contain (epi)catechingallate and (epi)gallocatechin units. Furthermore, these proanthocyanidins are bioavailable and may have an effect on the target tissues. However a Cochrane review study published in 2012 found that cinnamon was not more effective than placebo in reducing glucose levels and glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (a long-term measurement of glucose control in diabetes). Authors concluded that "There is insufficient evidence to support the use of cinnamon for type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus".

Antioxidant
Pharmacological experiments suggest that dietary cinnamon-derived cinnamic aldehyde (cinnamaldehyde) activates the Nrf2-dependent antioxidant response in human epithelial colon cells and may therefore represent an experimental chemopreventive dietary factor targeting colorectal carcinogenesis. Recent research documents antimelanoma activity of cinnamic aldehyde observed in cell culture and a mouse model of human melanoma.

Alzheimer's disease
A 2011 study isolated a substance (CEppt) in the cinnamon plant that inhibits development of Alzheimer's disease in mice. CEppt, an extract of cinnamon bark, seems to treat a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.

Adverse effects
The European Food Safety Authority in 2008 considered toxicity of coumarin, known to cause liver and kidney damage in high concentrations and a significant component of cinnamon, and metabolic effect on humans with CYP2A6 polymorphism, and confirmed a maximum recommended Tolerable Daily Intake (TDI) of 0.1 mg of coumarin per kg of body weight. The European Union set a guideline for maximum coumarin content in foodstuffs of 50 mg per kg of dough in seasonal foods, and 15 mg per kg in everyday baked foods. These limits are low enough to affect the flavour of cinnamon pastries.
