A Conversation After Death





Syibly, a pious man was born in Baghdad. He died 334 Hijri and was buried at Baghdad.  He was one day asked after his death in spiritual conversation (saint dream)  about what Allah has done for him.

He answered to whom asked : “ My brother! Allah has asked me.. O Syibly Did you know by what  I have forgiven you?

I replied : by my good actions? Oh my Lord

He said  : you are wrong

I replied again : by the sincerity of my service to You? my Lord!

He said : you are wrong

I replied again : by my pilgrimage to Mecca and my fasting and my prayer? my Lord!

He said : you are wrong

I replied again : by my migration to the teachers for seeking knowledge or to the pious men? my Lord!

He said : You are wrong

I replied again : So , by what You have forgiven me? Oh Allah

He answered : Did you remember when you walked in a path inside Baghdad , you found a baby cat which had been suffering from the cold and had moved to the corner of building because of extreme cold weather. You took him mercifully and put inside your Jubah to protect him from the cold?

I replied : Yes I did remember.

He said : By your mercifulness to him, I have forgiven you.

Wisdom and suggestion :

Allah will mercy us if we mercy whom on the earth.

We do not know which good actions that pleasure Allah, so we must not underestimate small good actions in our eye because it maybe big in the eye of Allah.

Somewhere in Kampung Inggris, there must be a food stall which will fall into bankcrupcy because had little customer so that to buy food at that food stall is a kind of mercy. It would be compensated by Allah. Please search that kind of food stall. Kyai Yazid always do that,follow him.

Kampung Inggris : At The Barber

At a corner of Anyelir Street that an outstanding one compared to the rest of streets at Kampung Inggris due to its completeness of the various traders , I saw a barber stall was made of small glass box that attracted me to drop by. “ How much for shaving brother ??.” I asked the barber that still young boy around fifteen years. “ Ten thousand Rupiahs ..brother..” He replied with smile painted at his face. “ How about Five thousands rupiahs because all I need is shaving not a style just   like your neighbour barber.” I asked discount price from him. “ Oke Brother..no problem.” He agreed me about the price and finally I got shaved even with friendly price.
