Tamu agung nan mulia itu sudah benar-benar mengunjungi kita, Ramadhan Kariim. Bulan yang secara literal betul-betul menjadi bulan pembeda dengan bulan lain. Bulan yang memiliki kekhasan tersendiri.
Beberapa pembeda Ramadhan dengan bulan lain itu di antaranya; bulan diturunkannya Alquran (QS. Al Baqarah [2]: 185), bulan yang di dalamnya ada Lailatul Qadar (Malam Kemuliaan) (QS Al Qadr [97] : 1-30, bulan yang digunakan untuk menjalankan salah satu Rukun Islam (Puasa) (QS Al Baqarah [2]: 183).
Ramadhan juga bulan yang jika mengerjakan perbuatan-perbuatan baik di dalamnya seperti puasa dan salat tarawih, akan menghapuskan dosa-dosa (kecil) yang telah lalu (HR Bukhari).
Selain itu, Ramadhan juga bulan yang dibuka pintu surga, dibuka pinta rahmat, ditutup pintu neraka, dan setan dibelenggu (HR Muslim), bulan yang amalan sunah akan diganjar pahala layaknya amalan Wajib (HR Muslim), bulan yang berlipat pahala menjadi 70 kali bagi amalan wajib (HR Muslim).
Di antara yang sangat khas dengan Ramadhan adalah semangat berbagi yang mencolok. Semangat menjadikan tangan berbagi. Dari berbagai generasi. Seperti dalam rekam sejarah seorang sahabat bernama Abdullah Ibnu Umar RA.
Beliau memiliki kebiasaan berbuka puasa bersama anak yatim dan orang miskin. Bahkan terkadang putra tercinta sahabat mulia, Umar bin Khatab RA ini tidak berbuka meski sudah Maghrib ketika keluarganya belum menghadirkan para fakir miskin di rumahnya.
Datuk dari Khalifah terkemuka Dinasti Umayyah, Umar bin Abdul Aziz ini termasuk pengusaha kaya, hartanya halal berlimpah, karena beliau seorang pedagang sukses yang amanah.
Beliau juga mendapat gaji dari Baitul Mal Negara. Namun saat Ramadhan, semua itu tidak beliau simpan sendiri, akan tetapi beliau bagikan kepada fakir miskin dan orang yang meminta-minta.
Ayub bin Wail Ar-Rasibi pernah menyaksikan kejadian menakjubkan tentang beliau. Suatu hari Ibnu Umar mendapat kiriman harta senilai 4.000 dirham (sekitar Rp 680 juta) dan satu baju yang ada bulunya. Keesokan harinya, Ayub bin Wail ini melihat Ibnu Umar di pasar membeli pakan kudanya dengan utang.
Ayub pun keheranan. Karena baru kemarin Ibnu Umar baru mendapat uang 4.000 dirham, tapi untuk membeli pakan kuda saja pakai utang. Karena penasaran, Ayub kemudian datang menemui keluarga Ibnu Umar, ingin tahu, apa gerangan yang terjadi.
Cerita keluarganya, “Uang itu belum sempat menginap semalam, namun sudah dibagikan semuanya kepada fakir miskin. Lalu beliau mengambil baju yang ada bulunya, beliau pakai keluar rumah, dan ketika pulang, baju itu sudah tidak ada. Ketika kami tanyakan, beliau sudah berikan baju itu kepada fakir miskin.”
Adakah sekarang di bulan mulia yang baru beberapa hari ini tergerak secara masif di antara kita menikmatinya dengan menjadikan tangan kita tangan berbagi, tangan Abdullah bin Umar. Insya Allah, semoga.

The noble royal guest had actually visited us, Ramadan Kareem. Months literally truly become a differentiator in the other months. The month that has its own peculiarities.
Some points that distinguishing Ramadan with other months that include; In the revelation of the Qur’an (QS. Al-Baqarah [2]: 185), a month in which there Lailatul Qadr (Night of Glory) (Al-Qadr [97]: 1-30, in which used to run one of the Five Pillars of Islam (Fasting) (Surah Al-Baqarah [2]: 183).
Ramadan is also the month that if good deeds in it such as fasting and tarawih, will wash away the sins (small) in the past (Bukhari).
Moreover, Ramadan is also the month that opened the doors of heaven, mercy door is opened, hell door is closed, and the devil chained ( HR Muslim), in which the sunnah worship will be rewarded reward like Mandatory worship (HR Muslim), in which doubled the reward to 70 times for Mandatory worship (HR Muslim).
Among the very typical with the Ramadan is spirit of sharing. The spirit in sharing. From various generations. As in the historical record of a friend named Abdullah Ibn Umar RA.
He has a habit of breaking fast with orphans and the poor. In fact, sometimes noble companions beloved son, Umar RA is not breaking despite Maghrib when the family is not present in the poor house.
Datuk from Caliph of the Umayyad dynasty, Umar bin Abdul Aziz include wealthy businessmen, kosher abundant treasure, because he was a successful and trustworthy merchant.
He also received a salary from Baitul Mal State. But during Ramadan, all was not he save himself, but he distributed to the poor and those who beg.
Ayub bin Wail Al-Rasibi ever witnessed amazing event about him. One day Ibn Umar got a shipment of property worth 4,000 dirhams (about USD 680 million) and the clothes with fur. The next day, Ayub bin Wail Ibn Umar saw him in the market to buy feed for his horse with debt.
Ayub witnessed it in astonishment. Because just yesterday Ibn Umar just got 4,000 dirhams, but to buy horse feed he pay it with debt. Out of curiosity, Ayub later came to see the family of Ibn Umar, wondering what was going on.
The Family said, “The Money not even stayed/ night, but he already distributed everything to the poor. Then he took the clothes with fur, he wear it and go out of the house, and when he went home, clothes that no longer exists. When we ask, he already gave the clothes to the poor. ”
Is there now in a glorious new month who moved massively among us to enjoy it with our hands to sharing, hands of Abdullah bin Umar. Insha Allah, hopefully
