Di daerah Mausil, Irak tepatnya di Ninive, masyarakatnya suka menuhankan benda, menyembah patung, menganggap tempat-tempat tertentu sebagai tempat keramat. Sedangkan di daerah Syam, ada seorang yang arif dan bijaksana bernama Yunus. Yunus diperintahkan oleh Allah untuk datang ke Ninive. Di sana ia melakukan dakwah, mencegah yang mungkar (kejahatan) dan menyeru kebaikan. Akan tetapi, ajakan Yunus itu disambut dengan sikap yang tidak terhormat. Nabi Allah itu dihadapi dengan ejekan-ejekan dan hinaan-hinaan. Rupanya kaum Ninive/Niwana itu terlalu menyombongkan diri dengan kekayaan yang dimiliki selama ini, sehingga menganggap remeh terhadap Yunus. Yunus tetap bersabar menghadapi perlakuan kaumnya. Nabi Yunus terus mencoba, mencoba lagi untuk mengajak kaumnya kepada jalan yang benar...

“And He sent against them birds, in flocks. Striking them with stones of Sijjil (baked clay). And made them like an empty field of stalks (of which the corn has been eaten up by cattle).”(Al-Fil: 3-5)?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????????????? While meekness is a characteristic of most visual creatures in the universe, then the frightful horror constitutes a characteristic of their unknown counterparts. I will not say anything else ...I am not allowed to talk about myself. My reality encloses a secret which if it is revealed to any creature, his blood will freeze and he will cease to exist out of fright. I am one of the Ababil the Flocks of Birds, that was mentioned in the Qur'an. I am the Commander of Communications among the six wings of the Eighth Army of these birds. The number of armies is a secret as well as the number of birds in the Eighth Army. We launch wars only at the order of Almighty Allah. I will not say how many missions we have carried out, for this matter belongs only to Almighty Allah. "Every day He has a matter to bring forth (such as giving honor to some, disgrace to some, life to some, death to some, etc.)!" All what I can say is that those missions were known to the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds. As for us creatures, there are cascading curtains and thick barriers that separate between them and us and this is because of Allah's mercy to His servants.

Jin adalah makhluk yang diciptakan oleh Allah SWT dari api dan ia mempunyai kemampuan untuk menampilkan dirinya dalam berbagai bentuk yang berbeda. Mereka juga makan-minum, melakukan hubungan lawan jenis, dan melahirkan keturunan, sebagaimana halnya manusia. Mereka dapat melihat manusia, sedangkan manusia tidak dapat menangkap sosok mereka (kecuali atas izin Allah SWT). Di antara mereka ada yang beriman dan ada pula yang kafir. Firman Allah SWT, ''Dan Kami telah menciptakan jin sebelum (Adam) dari api yang sangat panas.'' (QS Alhijr [15]: 27). Katakanlah (hai Muhammad), ''Telah diwahyukan kepadamu bahwasanya: telah mendengarkan sekumpulan jin, lalu mereka berkata: Sesungguhnya kami telah mendengarkan Alquran yang menakjubkan, (yang) memberi petunjuk kapada jalan yang benar, lalu kami beriman kepadanya. Dan kami sekali-kali tidak akan mempersekutukan seseorang pun dengan Tuhan kami.'' (QS Aljin [72]: 1-2). Selama ini sebagian besar orang menyangka bahwa setan merupakan makhluk halus jahat yang selalu mengganggu kaum manusia. Padahal, Allah SWT secara tegas berfirman, "Dan demikianlah Kami jadikan bagi tiap-tiap nabi itu musuh, yaitu setan-setan (dari jenis) manusia dan (dan jenis) jin, sebagian mereka membisikkan kepada sebagian yang lain dengan perkataan-perkataan yang indah-indah untuk menipu (manusia) ....'' (QS Alan'aam [6]: 112). Tentang ayat di atas, Ibnu Katsir mengatakan, ''Setan itu sendiri berarti segala sesuatu yang menyimpang dari tabiatnya berupa kejahatan. Dan tidak ada yang memusuhi para Rasul melainkan syaitan-syaitan baik dari jenis manusia maupun jin.'' Berbicara mengenai Iblis, Al Hasan Bishri mengemukakan, ''Iblis itu bukan dari golongan malaikat, sesungguhnya ia berasal dari golongan jin, sebagaimana Adam as adalah asal mula manusia.'' Allah SWT berfirman, ''Dan (ingatlah) ketika Kami berfirman kepada para malaikat, 'Sujudlah kamu kepada Adam, maka sujudlah mereka kecuali Iblis. Dia adalah dari golongan jin, maka ia mendurhakai perintah Tuhannya. Patutkah kamu mengambil dia dan keturunannya sebagai pemimpin selain daripada-Ku, sedang mereka adalah musuhmu? Amat buruklah iblis itu sebagai pengganti (dari Allah) bagi orang-orang yang zalim'.'' (QS Alkahfi [18]: 50). Di antara jin ada yang taat dan ada pula yang menyimpang dari kebenaran. Jin yang taat adalah yang benar-benar memilih jalan yang lurus. Kemudian ia akan mendapat surga dan segala yang telah Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala sediakan untuk kaum yang shalih.

Nabi Mu?ammad SAW (selengkapnya Mu?ammad bin Abdullah bin Abdul Mutthalib bin Hasyim (lahir di Mekkah, 20 April 570 – meninggal di Madinah, 8 Juni 632 pada umur 62 tahun) adalah seorang nabi dan rasul bagi umat Muslim. Ia memulai penyebaran ajaran Islam untuk seluruh umat manusia dan mewariskan pemerintahan tunggal Islam. Meski non-Muslim umumnya menganggap Nabi Muhammad SAW sebagai pendiri Islam, dalam pandangan kaum muslim, Nabi Muhammad SAW sama-sama menegakkan ajaran tauhid untuk mengesakan Allah SWT sebagaimana yang dibawa nabi dan rasul sebelumnya sejak dari Nabi Nuh. Umat Muslim menyebut Nabi Muhammad SAW dengan salam penghormatan "Shalallaahu 'Alayhi Wasallam" dan mengiringi dengan shalawat Nabi setiap nama Nabi Muhammad SAW diperdengarkan. Lahir pada tahun 570 di Mekkah, Nabi Muhammad SAW melewati masa kecil sebagai yatim piatu; ia dibesarkan di bawah asuhan kakeknya Abdul Muthalib kemudian pamannya Abu Thalib. Beranjak remaja, Muhammad bekerja sebagai pedagang. Ia kadang-kadang mengasingkan diri ke gua sebuah bukit hingga bermalam-malam untuk merenung dan berdoa; diriwayatkan dalam usia ke-40, Nabi Muhammad SAW didatangi Malaikat Jibril dan menerima wahyu pertama dari Allah. Ia menyatakan dirinya sebagai utusan Allah, sebagaimana nabi-nabi yang telah Allah utus sebelumnya. Tiga tahun setelah wahyu pertama, Nabi Muhammad SAW mulai berdakwah secara terbuka, menyatakan keesaan Allah SWT Tuhan Alam Semesta dalam bentuk penyerahan diri melalui Islam sebagai agama yang benar dan meninggalkan sesembahan selain Allah SWT. Praktik atau amalan Nabi Muhammad SAW diriwayatkan dalam hadits, dirujuk oleh umat Islam sebagai sumber hukum Islam bersama Al-Quran.

Hurrah for Essays! All writing lessons should be this much fun. When cousins Mellie and Dennis decide to get a cat, they consider carefully what breed would be best for each family. For example, Mellie wants a cat that pounces, but Dennis wants a lazy cat, like his lazy dog, Clark Kent. Mellie wants a lap cat, but Dennis just wants a warm body BESIDE him. They consider different cat personalities, family situations, and personal preferences. Mellie writes an opinion essay for her teacher, Mr. Eagle.

In the end, it’s the cousins and the cats that keep a reader turning the page. What kind of cat will Mellie choose? Will Dennis want the same kind of cat? PRAISE FROM CAT EXPERTS “This is an absolutely delightful book intended for children, but actually one that is informative for adults as well, it reinforces the importance of considering various factors when selecting a cat as a pet. The two cousins are exchanging thoughts about their lifestyles and priorities. They each have a vision of their ‘ideal cat.’ Though every cat is an individual, the book expresses the value of predictable personality traits and other characteristics of various pedigreed cat breeds. It is a charming story of the two children each going through the process of finding a cat who best fits their own preferences. The playful illustrations compliment the humorous and educational quality of the book.” --Joan Miller, Cahir, CFA Outreach and Education, Cat Fancier’s Association This is quite simply as informative a cat book as any text out there. Each selected breed pinpoints the single most important trait to know about it before choosing a cat ‘purrfect’ for you. Although written from a child’s perspective, it makes clear sense to readers of all ages. As a cat lover and Maine Coon Cat breeder and enthusiast, I was thrilled with the spot on description and story of this beloved breed. — Alexis Mitchell, Syracoon/Furensics, Maine Coon Cat Breed Council Secretary, Maine Coon Cat breeders of CFA This story hits many notes: A family story about cousins, Dennis and Mellie Scientific information on cat breeds Responsible cat ownership Mentor-text for teaching writing Model opinion essay for elementary students Models the writing process, especially the importance of pre-writing or planning before you write Completes the writing process by showing the results of Dennis’s essay I WANT A DOG almost makes opinion essays look too easy.

A JUNIOR LIBRARY GUILD SELECTION Do you believe everything you read in the newspaper? Early in August 1937, a news flash came: a sea monster had been spotted lurking off the shore of Nantucket Island. Historically, the Massachusetts island had served as port for whaling ships. Eyewitnesses swore this wasn’t a whale, but some new, fearsome creature. As eyewitness account piled up, newspaper stories of the sea monster spread quickly. Across the nation, people shivered in fear. Then, footprints were found on a Nantucket beach. Photographs were sent to prominent biologists for their opinion. Discussion swirled about raising a hunting party. On August 18, news spread across the island: the sea monster had been captured. Islanders ran to the beach and couldn’t believe their eyes. This nonfiction picture book is a perfect tool to discuss non-political fake news stories. Back matter discusses the freedom of the press guaranteed by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Quotes from Thomas Jefferson make it clear that fake news has always been one of the costs of a free press. A Timeline lists actual events in the order they occurred. A vocabulary list defines relevant words.

Setiap pasangan suami istri pastinya menginginkan memiliki keturunan sendiri. Tetapi, ketika Allah belum mengijinkan pasangan suami istri tersebut untuk memiliki keturunan, ada banyak cara yang dilakukan untuk bisa memiliki anak. Salah satunya dengan mengangkat anak/mengadopsi anak orang lain. Sebenarnya tradisi mengangkat anak ini sudah ada sejak jaman dahulu. Bahkan Rasulullah sendiri pun pernah mengangkat anak. Sebenarnya bagaimana hukum mengadopsi anak menurut pandangan Islam? Berikut penjelasannya untuk Anda. Banyak masalah tentang anak angkat ini yang muncul di kalangan masyarakat. Seringkalinya, anak angkat disamakan kedudukannya seperti anak kandung sendiri, dan menganggap seperti anak kandung sendiri tanpa lagi memperhatikan batas-batas mahram. Selain itu, karena menganggap seperti anak kandung sendiri, anak angkat mendapatkan hak waris layaknya anak kandung sendiri. Dan mungkin masih banyak lagi permasalahan seputar anak angkat. Padahal, syariat Islam yang agung telah menjelaskan dengan lengkap dan gamblang hukum-hukum yang berkenaan dengan masalah anak angkat ini, sehingga jika kaum muslimin mau mempelajari petunjuk Allah Ta’ala dalam agama mereka maka mestinya mereka tidak akan terjerumus dalam kesalahan-kesalahan tersebut di atas.

Dan (ingatlah) ketika Musa berkata kepada kaumnya, "Sesungguhnya Allah menyuruh kamu menyembelih seekor sapi betina." Mereka berkata, "Apakah kamu hendak menjadikan kami buah ejekan?"

Al-Baqarah: 67) Pada zaman Bani Israil, hiduplah seekor sapi betina yang cantik dan telah berjasa ikut membantu mengungkap sebuah pembunuhan. Mengapa sapi betina itu bisa membongkar sebuah kasus pembunuhan? Ingin tahu kisah selengkapnya? Silahkan Anda menyimak kisahnya berikut ini. Ada seekor sapi betina yang tidak seperti sapi-sapi yang lain. Selain bertubuh besar, warna bulunya pun kuning terang, sehingga terlihat sangat cantik. Dan anehnya sapi ini tidak suka berkubang di lumpur seperti sapi-sapi kebanyakan.Sapi ini dimiliki oleh seorang anak yatim piatu. Sebelum ayahnya meninggal, beliau telah memberikan wasiat untuk menjaga sapi tersebut sampai besar. Sejak saat itulah, si anak itu merawat sapi peninggalan orangtuanya dengan penuh kasih sayang.
