Isma’il dan Wanita Penyabar

Tulisan ini diambil dari buku berjudul “Membangun surga dalam rumah tangga”.Semoga kita semua dapat meneladani dan mengambil hikmah dari cerita di bawah ini.

Isma’il merupakan nama seorang mentri di zaman kalifah Ma’mun. Ketika sedang berburu Isma’il terpisah dari rombongannya. Dari kejauhan dia melihat sebuah kemah dan Isma’il pun mendatanginya. Dia melihat seorang wanita muda dan cantik sedang duduk di dalam kemah. Isma’il duduk di sisi kemah sedang wanita itu duduk di sisi lainnya. “tolong beri saya sedikit air” ujar Isma’il.

Paras wanita itu terlihat memucat dan dia berkata bahwa dia tidak memiliki ijin dari suaminya. Kemudian dia berkata. Saya memiliki sedikit susu dan sepotong roti untuk makan siang saya, tetapi siang ini saya tidak makan, dan saya akan memberikannya padamu. Dia pun memberikan jatah makan siangnya kepada Isma’il dan Isma’il pun menyantapnya. Kira kira 1 jam kemudian Isma’il menangkap kegelisahan wanita itu. Dia berdiri lalu duduk kembali. Dan Isma’iI pun melihat dari kejauhan seekor unta yang di kendarai oleh seseorang datang mendekat. Ternyata itu adalah suami si wanita tersebut yang tidak memberi ijin untuk memberikan air. Seorang laki laki tua dan buruk rupa.

Isma’il heran inikah suami dari wanita berparas cantik ini? Isma’il melihat kakek tua itu turun dari untanya dan istrinya membawakan air dan mencucikan kaki, tangan dan wajah kakek tua itu.Dan dengan penuh penghormatan dia mempersilahkan suaminya masuk ke dalam kemah dan dengan hormat duduk di hadapannya.

Isma’il menilai laki laki tua itu adalah orang yang buruk akhlaknya , sedang istriya adalah wanita yang berakhlak baik. Tanpa memerlukan pertimbangan lagi, Isma’il sudah dapat memberikan penilaian terhadap keduanya. Setelah matahari mulai meninggi Isma’il berniat pergi. Ketika dia pamit lelaki tua itu hanya menanggapinya sekedar saja. Sedangkan istrinya demi menghormati Isma’il keluar kemahdan dan mengucapkan selamat tinggal. Ketika di luar kemah Isma’il berkata;” Saya tidak mengerti nyonya, dengan segala keremajaan, kesempurnaan dan kecantikan yang anda miliki, anda bersedia melayani lelaki tua itu?” Isma’il melihat wanita itu berubah parasnya dan berkata. “Saya tidak suka anda berbicara mengenai suami saya dan mencampuri urusan kami. Saya mendengar satu riwayat dari Rasul SAW dan saya berharap dapat mengamalkannya. Dunia bagaimanapun tidak sama dengan akhirat. Kita pada malam pertama menemui kubur, menemui barzah, menemui neraka, menemui surga semuanya tidak terbatas dan sebanding dengan dunia yang baik buruknya hanya sekejap mata. Saya ingin mengamalkan semua ini sehingga menghantarkan saya ke surga Allah Swt. Saya juga mendengar Rasul SAW bersabda bahwa: ”Iman itu ada dalam dua sayap yaitu sabar dan syukur.” Satu sayap adalah sabar terhadap segala musibah yang menimpa dan sayap lain syukur terhadap segala nikmat. Setiap muslim harus bersabar di hadapan musibah dan bersyukur di hadapan nikmat. Saya dengan segala keburukan rupa dan akhlak suami saya ingin bersabar agar dapat meraih kesempurnaan. Dan ingin bersyukur atas segala kemudaan dan kecantikan ini agar dapat mencapai kesempurnaan iman. Berikut ini adalah doa agar selalu mensyukuri nikmat yang kita dapatkan.

Allahummaj’alni syakuuraa wajalni shabuuraa waj’alnii fii ‘ainii shaghiiraa wa fii a’yunin naasi kabiiraa

“Ya Allah jadikanlah aku orang yang selalu bersyukur kepadaMu, jadikan aku orang yang selalu bersabar, jadikanlah aku orang yang kecil dalam pandanganku tapi seseorang yang besar dalam pandangan orang lain.”

Allah dalam Al Qur’an telah menjanjikan pahala yang luar biasa bagi siapapun yang mampu bersabar:
“Sesungguhnya hanya orang orang yang bersabarlah yang di cukupkan pahala mereka tanpa batas” (Az Zumar: 10)

Seorang wanita yang bersabar atas kesulitan hidupnya; istri yang sabar atas keburukan akhlak suaminya atau sebaliknya dan tidak gusar atau resah dengan kesulitan hidup rumah tangganya, bahkan kemudian menjadikan musibah sebagai wahana pendidikan diri insyaallah akan memasuki pintu surga.

Para istri yang sanggup bertahan pada seluruh keburukan suaminya dan tidak mengutarakanya pada siapapun termasuk kepada orangtuanya, dan sambil berdoa:
“Ya Allah sesungguhnya aku bersabar karena Engkau, Engakaulah yang memerintahkan aku untuk bersabar. Maafkanlah aku dan suamiku. Ya Allah berilah hidayah kepada kami berdua dan masukkan kami ke dalam surgaMu yang tertinggi.”

Amin..amin semoga kita semua di golongkan untuk memiliki maqam sabar seperti itu. Sesulit apapun kehidupan yang kita jalani

How To Install And Use The djbdns Name Server On Debian Etch

djbdns is a very secure suite of DNS tools that consists out of multiple parts: dnscache, a DNS cache that can be used in /etc/resolv.conf instead of your ISP's name servers and that tries to sort out wrong (malicious) DNS answers; axfrdns, a service that runs on the master DNS server and to which the slaves connect for zone transfers; and tinydns, the actual DNS server, a very secure replacement for BIND.

I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you!

1 Preliminary Note
I have tested djbdns on a Debian Etch system with the IP address 192.168.0.100. I'll explain how to use dnscache and tinydns (as a master DNS server), but not how to use axfrdns - maybe I'll cover that in another tutorial.

dnscache will listen on the local IP address 127.0.0.1, tinydns on the external IP address 192.168.0.100.

2 Installing djbdns
djbdns is not available as a binary package in the Debian repositories due to its "license" (until December 28, 2007, djbdns was license-free software), however there's a djbdns-installer package in the repositories that can be used to install djbdns. djbdns depends on daemontools and ucspi-tcp; again, there are only installer packages available for these programs. The installers are available in the Debian Etch contrib and non-free repositories, so we must make sure first that these are included in our /etc/apt/sources.list:

#vi /etc/apt/sources.list
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
deb http://ftp2.de.debian.org/debian/ etch main contrib non-free
[...]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update your packages database afterwards:

#apt-get update

Next we install the daemontools-installer:

#apt-get install daemontools-installer

Now we can install the daemontools like this:

#build-daemontools

You will be asked a few questions. You can always accept the default value by pressing ENTER:

Enter a directory where you would like to do this [/tmp/daemontools] <-- ENTER

Which format would you like to use? [fD] <-- ENTER

Press ENTER to continue... <-- ENTER

Do you want to remove all files in /tmp/daemontools,
except daemontools_0.76-9_i386.deb now? [Yn] <-- ENTER

Do you want to install daemontools_0.76-9_i386.deb now? [Yn] <-- ENTER

Do you want to purge daemontools-installer now? [yN] <-- ENTER

To install ucspi-tcp, we run

#apt-get install ucspi-tcp-src

and then:

#build-ucspi-tcp

You'll be asked a few questions again, and again you can accept the default values:

Enter a directory where you would like to do this [/tmp/ucspi-tcp] <-- ENTER
Press ENTER to continue... <-- ENTER Do you want to remove all files in /tmp/ucspi-tcp, except ucspi-tcp_0.88-10_i386.deb now? [Yn] <-- ENTER

Do you want to install ucspi-tcp_0.88-10_i386.deb now? [Yn] <-- ENTER

Do you want to purge ucspi-tcp-src now? [yN] <-- ENTER

Finally we install djbdns as follows:

#apt-get install djbdns-installer

#build-djbdns

Again, you'll be asked a few questions - accept the default values:

Enter a directory where you would like to do this [/tmp/djbdns] <-- ENTER

Press ENTER to continue... <-- ENTER

Do you want to remove all files in /tmp/djbdns,
except djbdns_1.05-11_i386.deb now? [Yn] <-- ENTER

Do you want to install djbdns_1.05-11_i386.deb now? [Yn] <-- ENTER

Do you want to purge djbdns-installer now? [yN] <-- ENTER

Next we configure dnscache, axfrdns, and tinydns (make sure you replace 192.168.0.100 with the external IP address of your system):

#mkdir /var/lib/svscan
#dnscache-conf dnscache dnslog /var/lib/svscan/dnscache
#axfrdns-conf axfrdns dnslog /var/lib/svscan/axfrdns /var/lib/svscan/tinydns 192.168.0.100
#tinydns-conf tinydns dnslog /var/lib/svscan/tinydns 192.168.0.100

#ln -s /var/lib/svscan/dnscache /service
#ln -s /var/lib/svscan/axfrdns /service
#ln -s /var/lib/svscan/tinydns /service

Then we start djbdns:

#/etc/init.d/djbdns restart

3 Using dnscache

To use dnscache, we replace the existing name servers in /etc/resolv.conf with 127.0.0.1, the IP address that dnscache is listening on.

Make a backup of /etc/resolv.conf:

#cp /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf-original

Then run the following commands to create a new /etc/resolv.conf (make sure you replace example.com with your own domain):

#echo "domain example.com" > /etc/resolv.conf
#echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1" >> /etc/resolv.conf

To test if dnscache is working, we can try to resolve a hostname, e.g. www.google.com:

#dnsip www.google.com

If all goes well, it should display the IP addresses of www.google.com:

server1:~# dnsip www.google.com
66.249.93.104 66.249.93.147 66.249.93.99
server1:~#

4 Configuring tinydns
All tinydns records are stored in the file /service/tinydns/root/data. This file can either be edited by hand, or you can use some helper scripts that are in the /service/tinydns/root directory, e.g. add-ns, add-host, add-alias, etc.

I will now create some records for the domain example.com using these helper scripts. To use these helper scripts, we must go to the /service/tinydns/root directory:

#cd /service/tinydns/root

Now I want this server (192.168.0.100) to be a name server for the example.com domain, so I run:

#./add-ns example.com 192.168.0.100

The name of the name server is not directly specifiable. Names are automatically assigned by add-ns itself, following the pattern [a-z].ns.name, i.e. the 192.168.0.100 name server is named a.ns.example.com (you don't have to create an A record for a.ns.example.com, this has been created automatically by the previous add-ns command).

Now let's make the server with the IP address 192.168.0.101 our second name server for the example.com domain - this is b.ns.example.com:

#./add-ns example.com 192.168.0.101

Next let's create A records for the servers that will host example.com - let's name them server1.example.com and server2.example.com:

#./add-host server1.example.com 192.168.0.100
#./add-host server2.example.com 192.168.0.101

A single IP address can be used only once in an add-host command. To create further hostnames that use the IP address, we must now use the add-alias command:

#./add-alias www.example.com 192.168.0.100
#./add-alias example.com 192.168.0.100

Let's make 192.168.0.100 the mail exchanger for example.com:

#./add-mx example.com 192.168.0.100

The name of the SMTP server is not directly specifiable. Names are automatically assigned by add-mx itself, following the pattern [a-z].mx.name, in this case a.mx.example.com. It is not possible to specify the distance value (i.e., the priority) for the SMTP server.

After you've created all wanted records, you must run

#make

so that your changes can take effect.

There are no helper scripts to create CNAME and TXT records (e.g. for SPF records), so if you want to create such records, you must modify /service/tinydns/root/data manually, e.g. like this:

#vi /service/tinydns/root/data
-------------------------------------------------------
[...]
'example.com:v=spf1 a mx ~all:3600
Cftp.example.com:www.example.com
-------------------------------------------------------

You can use the SPF wizard on http://old.openspf.org/wizard.html to create an SPF record for your domain - the wizard shows the record in BIND and tinydns syntax so that you can copy & paste the record.

Don't forget to run

#make

afterwards.

If you take a look at the /service/tinydns/root/data file...

#cat /service/tinydns/root/data
-------------------------------------------------------------------
server1:/service/tinydns/root# cat /service/tinydns/root/data
.example.com:192.168.0.100:a:259200
.example.com:192.168.0.101:b:259200
=server1.example.com:192.168.0.100:86400
=server2.example.com:192.168.0.101:86400
+www.example.com:192.168.0.100:86400
+example.com:192.168.0.100:86400
@example.com:192.168.0.100:a::86400
'example.com:v=spf1 a mx ~all:3600
Cftp.example.com:www.example.com
server1:/service/tinydns/root#
-------------------------------------------------------------------

... you'll notice that the records begin with signs such as ., =, +, @, ', C, etc. You can find explanations of the different record types on http://www.fefe.de/djbdns/#recordtypes and http://www.pjvenda.org/linux/doc/tinydns/.

Instead of using the add-* helper scripts, you can of course specify all records manually in /service/tinydns/root/data. This way you are more flexible, for example you can assign individual names to your name servers and mail exchangers, e.g. ns1.example.com instead of a.ns.example.com:

#cd /service/tinydns/root
#vi data
-----------------------------------------------
#define the authoritative nameserver
.example.com::ns1.example.com
#mail exchanger
@example.com::mail.example.com
#IP for machine1,2,3,4,5
=machine1.example.com:1.2.3.1
=machine2.example.com:1.2.3.2
=machine3.example.com:1.2.3.3
=machine4.example.com:1.2.3.4
=machine5.example.com:1.2.3.5
#machine5 is also known as ns1
+ns1.example.com:1.2.3.5
#machine1 is our mailserver
+mail.example.com:1.2.3.1
#and our webserver
+www.example.com:1.2.3.1
---------------------------------------------

#make

To test your records, you can use the dig command, e.g.

#dig @192.168.0.100 example.com

#dig @192.168.0.100 ns example.com

#dig @192.168.0.100 mx example.com

#dig @192.168.0.100 txt example.com

#dig @192.168.0.100 www.example.com

etc.

FreeNX Server and Client Installation in Debian Etch

FreeNX is a system that allows you to access your desktop from another machine over the internet. You can use this to login graphically to your desktop from a remote location. One example of its use would be to have a FreeNX server set up on your home computer, and graphically logging in to the home computer from your work computer, using a FreeNX client.

Terminology You Should know

The Server is the computer you want to connect to. This is the computer where the FreeNX server will need to be installed. The name of the Ubuntu package providing the server is “freenx”. For the example used here, the home computer is the server.

The Client is the computer from which you want to be able to access the Server. The name of the Ubuntu package providing the client is “nxclient”. For the example used here, the work computer is the client.

Install Required software

NX server needs ssh and some libraries to run. These packages are normally not installed during the basic installation process.Use the following comamnd to install

#aptitude libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 ssh

Install Free NX Server in Debian Etch

First you need to download the .deb packages using the follwoing commands

#wget http://64.34.161.181/download/2.1.0/Linux-NoXft/nxclient_2.1.0-17_i386.deb

#wget http://64.34.161.181/download/2.1.0/Linux/nxnode_2.1.0-22_i386.deb

#wget http://64.34.161.181/download/2.1.0/Linux/FE/nxserver_2.1.0-22_i386.deb

Now you need to install .deb packages in the following order this is very important

#dpkg -i nxclient_2.1.0-17_i386.deb

#dpkg -i nxnode_2.1.0-22_i386.deb

#dpkg -i nxserver_2.1.0-22_i386.deb

If you get any errors use the following comamnd to fix

#apt-get -f install

Now you need to make sure ssh and nx servers are running if not start with the following commands

#/etc/init.d/ssh start

#/etc/init.d/nxserver start

Freenx client installation in Windows

First you need to download freenx from here 

Once you finish the installation you should be having freenx shortcut in your desktop now you need to double click on that and you should see the following screen and click next here

This will complete the connection to your server

Freenx client installation in Debian

First you need to download the client .deb package using the following command

#wget http://64.34.161.181/download/2.1.0/Linux-NoXft/nxclient_2.1.0-17_i386.deb

Install .deb package using the following comamnd

#dpkg -i nxclient_2.1.0-17_i386.deb

If you get any errors use the following comamnd to fix

#apt-get -f install

Now you need to go to Applications–>Internet–>NX Client for Linux –> NX Client for Linux once it opens you can follow the above procedure to connect

Optional Configuration

Changing SSH port Number

By default, nxserver uses port 22 for communicating over SSH. On some machines or networks, port 22 may be blocked. For example, some providers block port 22. To make the SSH server listen on port 8888, you can do the following:

Edit the file /etc/ssh/sshd_config

#vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Find

Port 22

and change it to

Port 8888

You then need to restart SSHD. Try

#/etc/init.d/ssh restart

Edit the file /etc/nxserver/node.conf

#vi /etc/nxserver/node.conf

Find

# The port number where local ’sshd’ is listening.

#SSHD_PORT=22

and change it to:

# The port number where local ’sshd’ is listening.

SSHD_PORT=8888

That is, change the port number to the one that sshd is listening to, and uncomment the line.
