Syeikh Abdul Qodir Al-Jilany ( Dalam Kitab Sirrul Asror )
Puasa Syariat adalah menahan diri dari makan dan minum, dan dari berhubungan suami isteri di siang hari. Sedangkan Puasa Thoriqoh itu, mengekang seluruh tubuhnya dari hal-hal yang diharamkan, dilarang dan dicela, seperti ujub, takabur, bakhil dan sebagainya secara lahir maupun batin. Kerana semua itu boleh membatalkan puasa thoriqoh.
Puasa syariat itu ada batas waktunya. Sedangkan Puasa thoriqoh senantiasa abadi tak terbatas seumur hidupnya. Itulah yang disabdakan oleh Rasulullah saw:
“Betapa banyak orang berpuasa tetapi puasanya tidak lebih melainkan hanya rasa lapar…” (Hr. Ibnu Majah dan Al-Hakim).
Kerana itu disebutkan, betapa banyak orang berpuasa tetapi ia justru berbuka, dan betapa banyak orang yang berbuka (tidak puasa) namun ia berpuasa. Yakni menahan anggota badannya dari dosa-dosa, menahan diri dari menyakiti manusia secara zahir/batin, seperti firman Allah Ta’ala dalam hadits Qudsy:
“Puasa itu untuk Ku dan Aku sendiri yang membalas pahala puasa.” (Hr. Bukhori)
“Bagi orang yang berpuasa mendapatkan dua kegembiraan: kegembiraan ketika berbuka, dan kegembiraan ketika memandang Keindahan Ku.”
Bagi Ulama syariat dimaksud dengan berbuka adalah makan ketika matahari maghrib, dan melihat bulan di malam Idul Fitri. Sedangkan ahli thoriqoh menegaskan bahawa berbuka itu akan diraih ketika masuk syurga dengan memakan kenikmatan syurga, dan kegembiraan ketika memandang Allah swt. Yaitu ketika bertemu dengan Allah Ta’ala di hari qiyamat nanti, dengan pandangan rahasia batin secara nyata.
Sedangkan Puasa Hakikat adalah puasa menahan hati paling dalam dari segala hal selain Allah Ta’ala, menahan rahasia batin (sirr) dari mencintai memandang selain Allah Ta’ala seperti disampaikan dalam hadits Qudsy:
“Manusia itu rahsiaKu dan Aku rahsianya.”
Rahsia itu bermula dari Nurnya Allah swt, hingga ia tidak berpaling selain Allah Ta’ala. Selain Allah Ta’ala, tidak ada yang dicintai atau disukai dan tak ada yang dicari baik di dunia maupun di akhirat. Bila terjadi rasa cinta kepada selain Allah gugurlah puasa hakikatnya. Ia harus segera mengqodho puasanya, yaitu dengan cara kembali kepada Allah swt dan bertemu denganNya. Sebab balasan Puasa Hakikat adalah bertemu Allah Ta’ala di akhirat.
“The greatest discovery is that a human being can alter his life by altering the attitudes of his mind” – William James
We all desire that one quick key to success. The key to happiness, bliss, financial prosperity, successful relationships, and the alleviation of suffering. What if I told you, there was no key? Throw away that thought. There is nothing you have to obtain for any of these things. The solution to all your problems is already within you now and can be accessed through the practice of one simple exercise: meditation.
Bringing the body, mind and spirit together in harmony allows you to tap into a world of infinite potential, giving you a glimpse into your own true nature of perfect peace.
We often forget our true nature due to the activity of the mind, but it is nevertheless there waiting to be discovered by you in the present moment. As we all know from personal experience, the vast majority of our internal suffering is generated by our thoughts.
Take a moment to quiet everything down. Meditation allows consciousness to marinate in itself by bringing to attention the present moment, the only time that actually exists. This is where success ultimately lies. Success can only be understood in terms of what is happening, and the only thing that is happening is the present moment.
Often times, we cause ourselves stress, anxiety, and panic over stuff that may occur in the future or events that have taken place in the past. The past only exists as a thought, and the future only exists as potential. Does it make sense to stress ourselves out and react to something which we know to be non-existent? To be anxious, fearful, or stressed out over something which does not exist is known as insanity or schizophrenia in the medical community. Bring the attention back to the present moment, and in this awareness true success be obtained. But what kinds of success can meditation lead to?
Finding peace and stillness within yourself is crucial to your body’s health. 90% of all diseases and illnesses are either caused or aggravated by stress, and meditation is a great way to restore balance in your body.
A new study from the American Heart Association shows that regular meditation was correlated with a 48% reduced risk of heart attack and stroke and even a trend towards reduced smoking.
“It appears that Transcendental Meditation is a technique that turns on the body’s own pharmacy – to repair and maintain itself.” said lead researcher Dr. Robert Schneider. “The research on Transcendental Meditation and cardiovascular disease is established well enough that doctors may safely and routinely prescribe stress reduction for their patients with this easy to implement, standardized and practical programme.” The study proved meditating 20 minutes twice a day can cut your chances of heart attack, and stroke in half immediately.
What man-mad pill can do that? Meditation has also been proven to cultivate healthy habits that lead to weight loss, lower blood pressure, improve digestion, decrease physical pain, boost your immune system, reduce your chance of cardiovascular disease, treat headaches, and even improve your sex-life just to name a few.
The mental benefits of meditation are even more striking. A study from Harvard in 2006 found that meditation actually increases the size of your brain. It also is scientifically proven to boost your creativity, increase brain wave coherence, increase your IQ, and improve mental focus, attention, memory and concentration. In other words, you don’t need to spend money on ADHD medication for yourself of your children.
Meditation also trains us to be compassionate by increasing the activity of the insula in the brain, the part of your brain responsible for processing empathy and perceiving the emotional states of others. This study from the University of Wisconsin-Madison proves that meditation actually trains your brain to be kind to other people and understand them compassionately.
“To varying degrees, meditation has been shown to benefit patients with hypertension, chronic pain, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, cancer, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse.” – Aditi Nerurkar, M.D., Harvard. Which would you chose, meditation or medication? Simply put, meditation is something that can dramatically alter your life for the better. It can replace your medications, improve your relationships with the people around, and bring you to a state of inner peace and tranquility.
Not only will you gain all of this, but you will also lose anger, anxiety, panic, depression, sickness and fear. THIS is success. Panic to Freedom is a fantastic program put together by Jordan, Ray, and Brian to walk you through breathing exercises, present moment awareness, and meditation to help you become the peaceful, blissful, and liberated individual you already are. If you want to be successful, there is nothing more successful than a successful present moment. In fact, this is the only kind of success there is, and all you have to do is nothing.
So what are you waiting for? Don’t just do something, sit there!
Transform yourself into the peaceful person you really are, and be truly successful in this moment. You deserve it.

Research continues to mount showing how a piece of fruit can naturally unclog your arteries in no time.
Without side effects.
In one study, researchers found that drinking this fruit juice reduced arterial plaque by up to 30 percent.1
For the study, Israeli scientists followed 19 subjects for three years. Patients were between the ages of 65 and 75. They were all non-smokers but had severe arterial buildup. So severe that their blood flowed at only 10 to 30 percent capacity.
Researchers gave 10 subjects this juice to drink daily. The other nine received a placebo. At baseline all subjects had similar levels for glucose, cholesterol, and blood pressure.
Diet and lifestyle practices remained constant throughout the test.
After just three months scientists noticed a difference. Thickness in the juice drinkers’ arteries decreased by 13 percent. And even better… After a year, plaque decreased by 30 percent. But in the placebo group, plaque increased by nine percent.
What is this artery-cleaning elixir?
Pomegranate juice.
In another Israeli study, researchers tested pomegranate juice on mice.2 The mice also had severely clogged arteries. Researchers split the mice into groups. One group had pomegranate juice added to their water. Researchers compared the pomegranate mice to a placebo and control group.
Once again, the pomegranate juice worked. In just two months, the mice that consumed the juice had improved arteries. The fruit reduced arterial lesion size by 17 percent.
Healthier arteries in just two months… you don’t get those types of results with drugs.
Statins and other high blood pressure medication are usually prescribed to treat hardening of the arteries – also known as atherosclerosis. We’ve told you the dangers of statins more than once. We’ve even told you how they actually cause arterial calcification.3
But now we’re finding that pomegranates are nature’s statin. Those little seeds found inside the wonder fruit are proving to do the job without the harmful side effects.
You can buy the fruit whole and crack it open and eat the seeds fresh. Or you can buy pomegranate juice. Just make sure you buy organic and naturally sweetened juice.
Don’t wait until the plaque builds up. Add pomegranates to your diet now as a preventative measure. They won’t just perk up your taste buds… they’ll get your blood flowing too.

Klasifikasi (CPG: Malaysian Guidelines 2008) :
Kebanyakan pesakit darah tinggi dinasihatkan supaya mengurangkan pengambilan garam (Sodium,Na+) dalam makanan, ini memang benar, tetapi pernahkah anda dinasihatkan juga supaya meningkatkan pengambilan POTASIUM (K+) dalam diet?
Antara tugas Sodium yang yang penting adalah mengawal volume cecair dalam badan anda. Sodium membantu untuk 'menarik' air supaya kekal di dalam darah anda.
Pengambilan Sodium secara berlebihan menyebabkan lebihnya volume air terkumpul dalam badan dan sukar untuk disingkirkan (melalui buah pinggang)
Di sinilah letaknya fungsi POTASIUM yang mempunyai fungsi yang berlawanan dengan Sodium, dimana ion Potasium akan bertukar dengan ion potasium pada reseptor sel dan ini akan membantu penyingkiran air dari badan
Kajian mendapati secara purata, penduduk A.S memakan sebanyak 3300 mg sodium sehari, sedangkan pakar pemakanan hanya mengesyorkan limitnya sebanyak 2300 mg sehari).
Manakala jumlah pengambilan Potasium yang disyorkan adalah 4700 mg sehari, manakala secara purata, penduduk AS hanya mengambil sebanyak 2000-2500 mg sahaja.
Tidak menghairankan 1 dalam 3 penduduk AS mendapat tekanan darah tinggi!
Apa itu faktor K?
Richard D. Moore, MD, PhD adalah seorang pakar yang telah sekian lama mengkaji hubungan antara Potasium dengan darah tinggi.
Dalam bukunya "The High Blood Pressure Solution: Natural Prevention and Cure with the K factor", Dr Moore telah menunjukkan bagaimana dengan makan menurut Faktor K, iaitu didefinisikan sebagai nisbah Sodium:Potasium sekurang-kurangnya 1:4 boleh mencegah penyakit darah tinggi, stroke dan kematian pra-matang
Dengan memakan makanan yang tinggi Potasium, rendah Sodium juga dapat mencegah penyakit buah pinggang dan jantung yang disebabkan oleh darah tinggi.
Bagaimana Meningkatkan Faktor K?
-Memakan sayuran, kekacang (legumes), biji-bijirin dan buah-buahan
-Makanan-makanan semulajadi (tanpa diproses) ini membekalkan nisbah Sodium-Potasium sekurang-kurangnya 1:50. Pisang, nisbahnya sangat tinggi (1: 440), begitu juga oren (1: 260)
Sumber-Sumber Potasium Yang Tinggi:
-Buahan sitrus seperti oren dan grapefruits. 1 cawan oren membekalkan 500 mg
-Ikan seperti tuna, halibut (400 mg+ setiap hidangan)
-Pisang (450 mg)
-Tomato (440 mg)
-Epal (182 mg)
-Honeydew
Tips Pengambilan Diet Untuk Pesakit darah Tinggi
1) Kurangkan pengambilan makanan berproses/makan di restoren
-1 Big Mac mengandungi 1070 mg sodium
-Semangkuk sup mengandungi 800 mg sodium
2) Makan dengan Nisbah Sodium-Potasium sekurang-kurangnya 1:4
-Jika contohnya anda makan makanan yang mempunyai sodium 1000 mg, anda kena 'balance' dengan makanan yang mengandung Potasium 4000 mg
3) Makan Makanan Potasium Tinggi (seperti contoh-contoh di atas)
