This should be our life portfolio with wisdom glasses. That is, he always will consider all events and events that befall human beings is simply the command of Allah swt. Likewise with the catastrophe, of course based on his determination, again not in vain. Therefore, all events in the universe is no accident. Everything was calculated, meticulous and has a specific purpose.

Then, why the accident happened to someone? Disaster comes, of course it was obviously fate to God. With the disaster, God has certain goals, which we should be able to mentafakurinya. Disaster also happened due to negligence of man himself (human error). That is a behavior deviated from the teachings of Tawheed (Islam). And the disaster came due to the mandate that has been wasted and many people had left the clergy in scrutinizing this life.

In order for any disaster (eg floods, landslides, famine, death, etc.). Maknai can we correctly, here are some unfortunate positions in life that we must sadarinya.

Disaster as a disaster

Disaster that happened, obviously due to the law of cause and effect. The existence of what had happened to someone we can position it as a disaster, when the catastrophe was outwardly actually caused by human actions in the form of denied the revelations of his and dzalim behavior of other creatures.

Allah says in the Qur'an. Al-A'raf: 96, "If if people of the townships and pious believers, surely we will delegate to them the blessings of heaven and earth, but they belied (the verses of Us), then We seized them because perbutannya."

Clearly, the position of the disaster as a disaster, triggered solely by the actions of man himself. Allah says "And whatever misfortune happened to you is caused by caused by your own hands." (Surat ash-Shura ': 30).

Disaster as erasers Sin

The existence of this tragedy in life, for a believer it can be a sin for him. Of course, this is based on self-awareness and strength of his faith perbutan. Messenger of Allah said, "Surely in every calamity that had befallen the Muslims, although there are thorns kaffarah about it or accident." (Narrated by Muslim).

In other details, such as narrated from Abu Hurairah ra, Rasulullah saw said: "Whatever happened to the Islamic Ummah as weary, suffering, disappointment, grief, disruption and distress to the extent for which thorn but surely God will wipe away the sins fault (with the causes of these things). "(Narrated by Bukhari).

Disaster as bearer Blessings

Other lessons can we learn from the disaster, is as the bearer of blessing (goodness). That is for those who when hit by the disaster, he could accept it bravely, patiently, and not out of the Islamic order.

The Prophet said, "It's amazing Muslim affairs. All business is good, and it is not owned by anyone other than Muslims. If something exciting he got so he was grateful, then it's good for him. And if something happened to him last mudlarat he patient (strong), then it's good for him. "(Narrated by Muslim).

Longanimity evidence of someone afflicted with calamity, among other things, pronounced sentence istirja ', ie Inna lillahi wainna ilaihi raji'uun when disaster comes. The impact, he would arise at the realization that all things belong to God and simply that we want to return to Him.

Disaster as a pleasure

The real pleasure is when we have to go home to God, as his Lord and His call to see, as the word of Allah in QS. Al-Fajr: 27-30, "O soul calm, return to your Lord with a heart that is satisfied longer likes him, then go to the gathering worshipers Me and enter into My Paradise."

In this case, the death that ends goodness, that is a calamity that can be a pleasure. The reality, though in the eyes of men who left that death as a calamity, sorrow, and others. However, on the other hand the Qur'an mentioned that the death was a series of favors and grace of God. Because it is not death as the only way to achieve true happiness? Wallahu'alam .***
