MERAIH SUKSES ALA SUFI: PENDIDIKAN ZUHUD DALAM KONTEKS KEKINIAN
ABSTRACT: Term of zuhud
(ascetisme) is often misunderstood although this term came earlier than
tasawuf. Experts of tasawuf have something in common to consider zuhud as the
requirement should be fulfilled by everyone who approach themselves to Allah
SWT whether or not they want to be blessed or loved by Allah. As long as the
attentions of people just focus on the world, and as long as they love
something else beside Allah, it is going to be a great obstacle to achive
success in sufi’s perspective. Actually without approaching ourselves to Allah,
there will be no obstacle for blessing of Allah comes to his creatures, but for
sufi, unlimited blessing from Allah makes them always be aware to ensure that
they do not forget the one who give the blessing (Allah). Whether or not they
have, happy, like, and in good occupation, there will not be any changes
related to their attitude and manner to Allah SWT. Their souls keep calm
because they always do zikir to Allah. They also willing to accept any decision
from Allah and their attitude and behavior always refer to what Rasulullah SAW
did as the example. Their ambition is they want to be safe and success both in
the world and the day after (akhirat) and it is the genuine success and
happiness for them.
