Online Fikes News,- In order to fill the holy month of Ramadan with useful activities, the Faculty of Health Sciences UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta again held a Healthy Synergy and Ramadhan Spirit event with FIKES entitled "Healthy Synergy and Ramadhan Spirit with FIKES" via the Zoom Meeting platform, Saturday, (03/15/2025).
This event was attended by the Dean of the Faculty of Health Sciences Prof. Dr. apt. Zilhadia, M.Si as the Welcoming speech, Din Wahid, MA., Ph.D as a speaker, the Vice Deans of the Head of Administration, Head and Secretary of Study Programs, Lecturers and Education Personnel, and FIKES Students.
Zilhadia in his speech said that this activity is the 6th annual Ramadhan activity, which is usually carried out in the month of Ramadan, once a week at the end of the week because we need a lot of reinforcement. We are health practitioners, but for Islamic integration we need a lot of provisions. Not only knowledge, but integrating religious values.
"In a forum like this we strengthen ourselves as educators, so that we can be examples and role models for those we educate. As faculty leaders, you can make the most of our event, so that the values of Islamic integration are built. We use this activity to gain knowledge, and the enemy of knowledge is laziness," he explained.
Din Wahid as a speaker said, so when Allah wanted to create a caliph, a dialogue between Allah and the angels arose. The angels protested a little, O Allah, why did You suddenly want to create a caliph, while the caliph will cause destruction from war, etc. Are You not satisfied with us? While we follow everything that is commanded and always glorify You, are You not satisfied with us.
In the Qur'an when Allah creates there is kunfayakun, it happens then it happens. When Allah wants to create a caliph, the letter of Albaqarah verse 30
وَاِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةِ ِانِّيْ جَاعِلٌ فِى الْاَرْضِ خَلِيْفَةًۗ قَالُوْٓا اَتَجْعَلُ فِيْهَا مَنْ يُّفْسِدُ فِيْهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَاۤءَۚ وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَۗ قَالَ اِنِّيْٓ اَعْلَمُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ ٣٠
(Remember) when your Lord said to the angels, “I am going to make a vicegerent on earth.” They said, “Do You intend to make therein one who will cause corruption and shed blood, while we glorify You and sanctify Your name?” He said, “Indeed, I know what you do not know.”
So Allah said: I know what you do not know. Al-Baqarah verse 31
وَعَلَّمَ اٰدَمَ الْاَسْمَاۤءَ كُلَّهَا ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةِ فَقَالَ اَنْۢبِـُٔوْنِيْ بِاَسْمَاۤءِ هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ ٣١
He taught Adam all the names (things), then He showed them to the angels, saying, "Tell Me the names of these (things) if you are right!"
After Adam was created: Teaching knowledge to Adam, and Adam having knowledge, Allah conveyed it to the angels, Allah tested the angels to name these objects.
The angel answered: Glory be to You
Allah conveyed to Adam
قَالَ يٰٓاٰدَمُ اَنْۢبِئْهُمْ بِاَسْمَاۤىِٕهِمْۚ فَلَمَّآ اَنْۢبَاَهُمْ بِاَسْمَاۤىِٕهِمْۙ قَالَ اَلَمْ اَقُلْ لَّكُمْ اِنِّيْٓ اَعْلَمُ غَيْبَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۙ وَاَعْلَمُ مَا تُبْدُوْنَ وَمَا كُنْتُمْ تَكْتُمُوْنَ
He (Allah) said, "O Adam, tell them the names of those things!" After he (Adam) mentioned the names, He said, "Did I not tell you that I know the secrets of the heavens and the earth, and I know what you reveal and what you always hide?"
Allah says, have I not told you that I know what you hide and show?
This is what differentiates angels and human Adam. Excellence lies in knowledge. To give an advantage to Prophet Adam then that became an advantage, which then made the angels bend their knees.
That humans are superior to other creatures, even superior to angels. Angels were created from light. Albaqarah verse 34
وَاِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةِ اسْجُدُوْا لِاٰدَمَ فَسَجَدُوْٓا اِلَّآ اِبْلِيْسَۗ اَبٰى وَاسْتَكْبَرَۖ وَكَانَ مِنَ الْكٰفِرِيْنَ ٣٤
(Remember) when We said to the angels, “Prostrate yourself before Adam!” So they prostrated themselves, except for Iblis. He rejected it and was arrogant, and he was one of the disbelievers.
Because of the superiority of Prophet Adam, superiority in the field of knowledge and the angels were asked to prostrate except Iblis.
If we look at it from here, some of the devils are a group of angels. Then the devil felt superior, in the Qur'an it is said that the devil felt better because he was created from fire, while humans are from clay.
In the Qur'an, one of the advantages of humans is having knowledge, because knowledge is the basis of skills in all fields.
The combination of knowledge and skills will create superior humans (1) Knowledge, (2) Attitude, (3) Behavior.
Knowledge will be the basis of what we will do in the future. In fiqh, we as followers are divided into 3, namely: Muqallid; Following but not knowing the meaning or reason (only following orders). Muttabi'; Following but can explain, and know the argument. Muztahid; Having knowledge can increase and can convey knowledge, and can provide opinions.
In religion, knowledge is very important to classify ourselves in what position. Are we muqallid, or muttabi and muztahid. At least we are in the second stage, don't let us fall into the first stage.
As parents, lecturers, educators, we must be able to generate critical thinking. If explaining to students, don't do it half-heartedly.
Even angels are inferior to humans, our advantage lies in knowledge. In the Qur'an we are asked to read, Allah will exalt those who believe and those who are given knowledge by several degrees.
In addition to delivering the material, this event was filled with an interactive question and answer session. The audience was given the opportunity to ask questions directly to the speaker, so that the discussion was more lively and increased motivation and understanding of the virtues and privileges of the month of Ramadan.
The event was closed by the MC with a group photo session as a form of togetherness and memories, then continued with the reading of prayers by the speakers for the blessings and benefits of the knowledge gained from this event. With this activity, it is hoped that the entire academic community of the Faculty of Health Sciences, UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta will be increasingly motivated to make the month of Ramadan a momentum to increase productivity and quality of worship.
