deed of worship that firsly reckoned in the judgment day. Praying beside a
communication form between human as Allah’s creature to Allah swt, praying has also
secrets and deeply philosophies. Praying we employ daily is an obligation to
every Moslem. Praying deed can be materialized in our daily activities that
will generate whole personality. Thus we may not leave praying and make our
praying to be daily, not just a duty.
A Moslem when
performs Rukun Islam particularly praying, afterwards he must always remember
to Allah swt. Human as Allah’s creature must remember Allah everywhere he
belongs and everytime he belongs along his life in order to not doing
despicable and ignoring deed. After praying we expect to act preciously and
harmoniously live toward common human.

CHAPTER
II
DISCUSSION
A. Definition of Fadlillah
الفضلة
originally comes from الفضلي which
means benefit. If both two things are allied in one matter, which one of them
has certainty with excessive, so that is called its excessive. And it has
excess than instead of it. If we example it with horse, it is more important
than donkey. It means
horse is allied to donkey which is having a common power to carry away.
Nevertheless, horse has more power ahead, running, jumping ability, and well
appearance.
Science is an
excess to it and absolutely without connecting to other. Because science is a
perfect feature for Allah swt. By science, angels and prophets can be lofty.
Even by science too, the clever horse can be better than fool horse. Something that is worthy is divided into:
1. Searched for
another
2. Searched for
matter itself
3. Searched for
another goal and together for the matter itself.
Al-Ghazali explains that searched for matter itself has its main
importance than searched for another. Because which is searched is dirham
and dinar, both of them are rock where Allah swt doesn’t make them to
obtain live necessary.[1]
Searched
for matter itself is happiness in akhirat. And which is searched for matter
itself and for another, i.e. body salvation. Human salvation, if it is searched, is a body safety
from poignant sense. And by the salvation, we can gain
the means of necessary.
By
the points above, if we stare at science, we will undoubtedly find by science
itself happiness feeling. According to Ghazali, science is searched for science
itself. And you can know that science is a way to akhirat and a way to approach
ourself to Allah swt.
Rasulullah s.a.w said: “Searching
science is obliged upon every Moslem.” In another hadits, Rasulullah s.a.w
said: “Search science although until China land.” At the time the
distance from Arab to China was far. China in ancient time had enough developed
civilization than the other civilization in the world. That’s why Rasulullah
s.a.w exampled it to find out science till the China land. According to
Rasulullah s.a.w. science that is obliged is knowledge consisted in hadits explaining
the pillar of Islam, i.e. testifying that no God but Allah, erecting praying,
employing fasting, paying zakat, and executing pilgrimage if able. Because that
is obliged those five, we must know it its employment and its obligation.
The
higher postion of human is eternal happiness. The major is the way to it. And it
will not arrive to him other
than science and amal. And it will not arrive to amal without knowing how to
do amal. So we can say that, the source of happiness
at world and akhirat is
science. At world, we will acquire magnificence, glory and respecting
instinctly. When science is more prominent in every thing, so learning it, is looking for the prime.
Rasulullah s.a.w said:
“من
علم علما فكتمه ألجمه الله يوم القيامة بلجام من نارْ
Meaning: “Whomever knows about
science, hence conceals it, then he/she will be reined by Allah swt by fire of
hell at doomsday.”
Science is better than wealth.
Science can maintain us and we keep wealth. Wealth can be reduced if it is spent,
then science can be accrued if it is spent(dibelanjakan). That’s why if we want
to do praying worship, we must know its essentiality and its benefit. By the
science we gain, we can acquire the benefit of our worship.
B.
Fadlillah
of Praying
Here
we will talk about what is the benefit of praying in our worship. By science of
worship we can not only make our woship just as a duty, but can be materialized
in our life.
ان الصلوة كانت على المؤمنين كتاباموقوتا
Meaning:
“Indeed praying is an obligation that is determined the time for the
faithful.” (Q.S. An-Nisaa’ verse 103).
Wisdom
according to Al Ghazali is something appraised by Allah swt with Its firman:”Blessed
with It, Wisdom to whose that It will and someone who gifted wisdom then he has
blessed many kindliness.” (Surah al-Baqarah verse 269)[2] So
here we can conclude the definition from Wisdom of praying is something
appraised by Allah swt in our praying. Despite of these words between wisdom
and fadlillah has common meaning, but they have different definitions. But in
my article here, I don’t want to explain it both of them. About the wisdom of
praying, the reader can read our previous article entitled “Wisdom of Praying”.
Here I will explicate about the fadlillah of praying.
According
to syariah mean, praying is defined as “a series of saying and certain
deed that started by takbir and finished
by
salam.”[3]
Praying that is obliged toward Islam people are 5 times a day, Subuh praying (2
rakaat), Dhuhur praying (4 rokaat), Asar (4 rakaat), Maghrib (3 rakaat), and
Isya’ (4 rakaat). Praying is a main and essential worship for Islam people. How
important praying, so to give order, Allah deigns to call Rasulullah s.a.w to
appear before It directly. While for another Allah’s orders always be conveyed
toward Rasulullah s.a.w through Gabriel angel. Because praying constitutes the
most essential worship for people life, then it has many wisdoms. The important
syara’ aim establishes praying upon human is in order human always remembers to
Allah swt.
Al
Ghazali mentions several fadlillah of praying which is divided into fardlu and
jama’ah praying. He based his writing on our highest prophet’s hadits and
Quran. Despite of some hadits he quoted according to several ulama’ are hasan,
we should admit that his mind about praying can’t be regarded as narrow minded.
This can be seen from his biography that he wasn’t hadits collector figure as
Imam Bukhari or Muslim.
Fadlillah
of Fardlu’ praying:
1. Praying
five times without ever neglecting, will be promised by Allah swt a heaven. If
Allah swt is willing, hence they will get adzab and if Allah swt is
willing, they will be promised to enter to the heaven. From Ubaddah bin
Ash-Shamit. Rasulullah s.a.w. said:
“Praying
five times is obliged by Allah swt to every ‘hamba’. Then whom does it all
without ever neglecting something to them, as demulcent his/her rights, surely
for him/her to Allah swt such plea that he/she will get to the heaven. And whom
doesn’t do it all, then nothing for him/her to Allah swt such plea. If it is
wanted by Allah swt, surely he/she will get adzab and if it is wanted by It,
surely he/she will be entered to the heaven.” (H.R. Malik, Ahmad, and etc).
2. Praying
five times can delete human sin, as Rasulullah s.a.w. said in his hadits: From
Jabir said that Rasulullah s.a.w. said, “Indeed the five praying can delete
sins as water deletes clog.” (HR. Muslim)
3. From
Anas bin Malik, Rasulullah s.a.w. said, ”Someone who encounter Allah while
he muffs praying, then he doesn’t cared by Allah upon something than his
kindliness.”(HR. Thabrani)
4. Quoted
from Rasulullah s.a.w hadits, he writes that the worst person at stealing is a
person who steals his praying. “The worst person at stealing is someone who
steals his praying.” (HR. Ahmad and Al-Hakim)
Then in jama’ah praying wisdom, he mentions as
follows:
1. Jama’ah
praying can enhance human degree to twenty seven degree. From Ibnu Umar ra,
Rasulullah s.a.w said,”Jama’ah praying exceeds praying munfarid by twenty
seven degree.” (HR. Bukhari and Muslim)
2. Allah
swt will write him two releasing, firstly relased from nifaq and secondly
released from hell. From Anas, Rasulullah s.a.w said,”Someone who employs
praying for along forty days jama’ah, and he didn’t leave takbiratul ihram then
Allah will write him two releasing, firstly, released from nifaq and secondly
releasing from hell.” (HR. Tirmidzi)[4]
Usman al-Khaibawi said in his book
entitled “Durratun Nasiin” that whomever praying five times by together, then
to him/hers will be given five kind of prizes:
1.
He/she will not
getting from poverty in the world
2.
Allah swt will
freed him/her of grave torture
3.
He/she will get
amal notes with his/her right hand
4.
He/she will be
able to go through bridge (shiraathal mustaqim) as a pouncing lightning.
5.
Allah swt will
enter him/her to the heaven without the reckoning of amal and without
torture.
Thereby we get image the importance
of praying and it is better if we can employ jama’ah praying. How important
this praying, Maimunah bin Mahran was told that she came to mosque, then people
said to her that people has crowdedly returned (because praying has been
finished), so Maimun answered: ”"ان ل الله وان
اليه راجعون
Indeed, benefit of the praying is
better for me than to be representative of Iraq.[5]
However
there are so many fadlillah of praying that I can’t mention it here one by one.
Various writers have mention it in their work about it. Beside it, we must also
know that Allah swt’s doesn’t assure our praying. We can’t know how are our
worship are received or not. According to Usman Al-Baikhawi, Rasulullah s.a.w.
said there are ten people whose praying is not be received by Allah swt:
1.
A man, whose
praying is alone without reading anything.
2.
A man, whose
praying, hence, doesn’t give his zakat.
3.
A man who
becomes an imam then his clan or his ma’mum hate him.
4.
A slavery man
who is fleeing
5.
An unstoppable
boozer man
6.
A girl, whose
husband, is angry to her.
7.
A girl who is
praying without veil.
8.
An arrogant Imam
/ leader and dzalim.
9.
A man who is
eating usury wealth.
10.
A man whose
praying can’t retain his self of despicable and ignoring deed.[6]

praying can be translated as something appraised by Allah swt about our
praying. Praying is an essential worship for human. It becomes the first amal
