Dari milis kamar, Z:smoga lebih banyak lagi ustadz, ustadzah yang menggantikan beliau...tentunya dengan akhlak dan iman serta pengethauan yg lebih luas...Amin... ====================================================================== BismiLlaahirRahmaanirRahiim Assalaamu'alaikum wr. wb.
Innaa liLlaahi wa inaa ilaihi raaji'uun... Setelah ditinggal mujahiddah dakwah, Zainab Al-Ghazali (semoga Allah Swt. merahmatinya), dunia Islam kembali ditinggal seorang mujahid lainnya yang telah banyak berjasa demi kemajuan Islam dan Umat Islam, terutama dalam bidang kristologi, yaitu Ust. Ahmad Deedat, yang telah banyak mengalahkan para pendeta dan pastur dalam debat terbuka di kandang mereka sendiri... Kami di Sydney sangat merasakan manfaat ilmu Kristologi dari Ust. Ahmad Deedat. Hidup di negara dimana orang kerap mempertanyakan agama kita, membandingkan dengan agama mereka, maka ilmu ttg Kristologi sangat terasa pentingnya... Allahummaghfirlahu warhamhu wa'aafihi wa'fu'anhu... Semoga Allah Swt. merahmati beliau dan seluruh para mujahid yang telah kembali kepada Nya serta menempatkan mereka di tempat yang sebaik2nya, serta semoga Allah Swt. berkenan untuk menjadikan kita dapat mengikuti jejak langkah para pendahulu kita yang shalih dengan sebaik2nya... Amin Uya' Source: www.islamonline.net Sheikh Ahmed Deedat Dies at 87 Deedat was considered by many as more a scholar of the Bible than the Qur'an. CAIRO, August 8, 2005 (IslamOnline.net) Famed Muslim preacher and debater Sheikh Ahmed Deedat died Monday, August 8, at 87, leaving behind a legacy of propagating Islam and defending it against missionaries. Founder of the Islamic Propagation Center International (IPCI) in Durban, South Africa, Deedat distributed more than twenty million copies of his books and audio tapes free of charge for the purpose of da`wah. In South Africa where he lived, hundreds of people have entered Islam Including a large number of missionaries. He delivered lectures all over the world and successfully engaged Christian Evangelists in public debates. One of his most famous debates was "Was Christ Crucified?" when he impressively debated Bishop Josh McDowell in Durban in 1981. Famous books by Deedat included "The Choice - Between Islam and Christianity; "Is the Bible God's Word?"; "Al Qur'an the Miracle of Miracles" ; "What the Bible says about Muhammad (PBUH)?"; and "Crucifixion or Cruci- Fiction?" Deedat, who was born in 1918 in the Indian district of Surat, has been bedridden since 1996 when he suffered a serious stroke. Excellent Debater In 1986, Sheikh Deedat was awarded the King Faisal International Prize for Service of Islam. Sheikh Deedat did not have much formal schooling, but he was self- taught through experience and had a penchant for reading, debating, discussion, and a profound sense of commitment to a mission and goal, according to his Web site. He was driven and goal oriented. He was focused and never let up until the job was done. He was sharp, perceptive, forthright, fiery, and daring in his challenge of those whom he debated particularly against those who equal his missionary zeal and sense of audacity, the Web site added. "Formal schooling did not destroy his creative prowess, his tenacity, ambition, drive, and sheer daring to swim upstream." Sheikh Deedat was considered by many as more a scholar of the Bible than the Qur'an and was more familiar and adroit with its teachings. He had an insight and perspective of the Bible which made many Christians he came into contact with rethink and re-examine their faith, particularly those aspects of the Bible and the Qur'an that deal with the divine mission and life of Prophet Jesus, the Web site says. In 1986, the King Faisal Foundation awarded the King Faisal International Prize for Service of Islam to Deedat. He shared the prize with prominent French Muslim intellectual and philosopher Roger Garaudy. When he suffered a stroke, he lost his speech, his most potent gift that he used so effectively in his debates to propagate Islam. He delivered his last lecture in Sydney, Australia, in 1996 just before his chronic illness. The lecture was considered to be one of his most passionate talks. Wassalaamu'alaikum wr. wb.
