Istilah gaul Internet


Kebanyakan pengguna internet sekarang ini banyak memakai istilah-istilah dalam penulisan di Situs atau Blog agar lebih simpel dan cepat menulisnya. Bahkan bagi Kaskuser udah punya istilah-istilah sendiri yang lucu dan unik.... Ini beberapa istilah yang aku ambil dari berbagai sumber:

Membumikan Al Quran - 2. Bukti Kebenaran Al-Quran

2. Bukti Kebenaran Al-Quran
Dr. M. Quraish Shihab

Al-Quran mempunyai sekian banyak fungsi. Di antaranya adalah menjadi bukti kebenaran Nabi Muhammad saw. Bukti kebenaran tersebut dikemukakan dalam tantangan yang sifatnya bertahap. Pertama, menantang siapa pun yang meragukannya untuk menyusun semacam Al-Quran secara keseluruhan (baca QS 52:34). Kedua, menantang mereka untuk menyusun sepuluh surah semacam Al-Quran (baca QS 11:13). Seluruh Al-Quran berisikan 114 surah. Ketiga, menantang mereka untuk menyusun satu surah saja semacam Al-Quran (baca QS 10:38). Keempat, menantang mereka untuk menyusun sesuatu seperti atau lebih kurang sama dengan satu surah dari Al-Quran (baca QS 2:23).

Dalam hal ini, Al-Quran menegaskan: Katakanlah (hai Muhammad) sesungguhnya jika manusia dan jin berkumpul untuk membuat yang serupa Al-Quran ini, niscaya mereka tidak akan mampu membuat yang serupa dengannya, sekalipun sebagian mereka menjadi pembantu bagi sebagian yang lain. (QS 17 :88).

Membumikan Al Quran -1. Keotentikan Al-Quran

1. Keotentikan Al-Quran
Dr. M. Quraish Shihab


Al-Quran Al-Karim memperkenalkan dirinya dengan berbagai ciri dan sifat. Salah satu di antaranya adalah bahwa ia merupakan kitab yang keotentikannya dijamin oleh Allah, dan ia adalah kitab yang selalu dipelihara. Inna nahnu nazzalna al-dzikra wa inna lahu lahafizhun (Sesungguhnya Kami yang menurunkan Al-Quran dan Kamilah Pemelihara-pemelihara-Nya) (QS 15:9).

Demikianlah Allah menjamin keotentikan Al-Quran, jaminan yang diberikan atas dasar Kemahakuasaan dan Kemahatahuan-Nya, serta berkat upaya-upaya yang dilakukan oleh makhluk-makhluk-Nya, terutama oleh manusia. Dengan jaminan ayat di atas, setiap Muslim percaya bahwa apa yang dibaca dan didengarnya sebagai Al-Quran tidak berbeda sedikit pun dengan apa yang pernah dibaca oleh Rasulullah saw., dan yang didengar serta dibaca oleh para sahabat Nabi saw.
