Masjid Qiblatain (artinya: masjid dua kiblat) adalah salah satu masjid terkenal diMadinah. Masjid ini mula-mula dikenal dengan nama Masjid Bani Salamah, karena masjid ini dibangun di atas bekas rumah Bani Salamah.

[sunting]Sejarah

Masjid Qiblatain di Madinah

Pada permulaan Islam, orang melakukan salat dengan kiblat ke arah Baitul Maqdis(nama lain Masjidil Aqsha) di Yerusalem/Palestina. Baru belakangan turun wahyu kepada Rasulullah SAW untuk memindahkan kiblat ke arah Masjidil Haram diMekkah.

Peristiwa itu terjadi pada tahun ke-2 Hijriyah hari Senin bulan Rajab waktu dhuhur di Masjid Bani Salamah ini. Ketika itu Rasulullah SAW tengah salat dengan menghadap ke arah Masjidil Aqsha. Di tengah salat, tiba-tiba turunlah wahyu suratAl Baqarah ayat 144^[1], yang artinya:

“Sungguh Kami (sering) melihat mukamu menengadah ke langit, maka sungguh Kami akan memalingkan kamu ke kiblat yang kamu sukai. Palingkanlah mukamu ke arah Masjidil Haram. Dan di mana saja kamu berada, palingkanlah mukamu ke arahnya. Dan sesungguhnya orang-orang (Yahudi dan Nasrani) yang diberi Alkitab (Taurat dan Injil) memang mengetahui, bahwa berpaling ke Masjidil Haram itu adalah benar dari Tuhannya; dan Allah sekali-kali tidak lengah dari apa yang mereka kerjakan.”^[2]

Setelah turunnya ayat tersebut di atas, beliau menghentikan sementara salatnya, kemudian meneruskannya dengan memindahkan arah kiblat menghadap ke Masjidil Haram. Merujuk pada peristiwa tersebut, lalu masjid ini dinamakan Masjid Qiblatain, yang artinya masjid berkiblat dua.

Masjid Qiblatain telah mengalami beberapa kali pemugaran. Pada 1987 Pemerintah Kerajaan Arab Saudi di bawah Raja Fahd melakukan perluasan, renovasi dan pembangunan konstruksi baru, namun tidak menghilangkan ciri khas masjid tersebut.^[1] Sebelumnya Sultan Sulaiman telah memugarnya di tahun 893 H atau 1543 M. Masjid Qiblatain merupakan salah satu tempat ziarah yang biasa dikunjungi jamaah haji dan umrah dari seluruh dunia.

Di sini juga terdapat Makam Rasullullah S.A.W. Masjidil Haram merupakan masjid paling suci danMasjid Al Aqsa merupakan masjid ketiga paling suci dalam Islam.

Masjid ini asalnya dibina sendiri oleh Rasullullah sendiri, bersebelahan dengan rumah yang baginda diami selepas peristiwa Hijrah pada tahun 622 Masihi. Masjid pertama yang didirikan oleh Rasullullah semasa peristiwa Hijrah ialah Masjid Quba.

[sunting]Menara masjid

Ketika zaman Rasulullah SAW dan Khalifah Ar-Rasyidin, Masjid Nabawi tidaklah memiliki sebarang bentuk menara. Orang yang pertama sekali membina menara Masjid Nabawi ialah Umar bin Abdul Aziz pada tahun 93 Hijrah, iaitu dengan mendirikan empat menara masjid yang berketinggian lebih kurang 27.5 meter pada empat sudut. Kemudian diikuti Qaitbay dengan membangunkan menara kelima di Babur Rahmah. Kelima-lima menara Masjid Nabawi ini terus dipertahankan sehinggalah tiga buah menaranya diruntuhkan untuk memberi laluan kepada projek Perluasan Saudi Pertama. Kemudiannya tiga menara yang diruntuhkan telah diganti dengan dua buah menara baru setinggi 72 meter. Lalu pada Projek Perluasan Saudi Kedua ditambah lagi dengan 6 buah menara Masjid yang setiap satunya berketinggian 104 meter, tinggi hilal 6 meter dan beratnya mencecah 4.5 tan. Sehingga kini Masjid Nabawi mempunyai 10 buah menara masjid. Perlu juga diketahui bahawa tinggi menara Masjid utama ialah 44.53 meter, sedangkan menara di Pintu Salam (Babus Salam) adalah setinggi 38.85 meter.

Mak ngah nasi dagang

Nasi dagang is a Malaysian and Southern Thai dish consisting of rice steamed in coconut milk, fish curry and extra ingredients such as fried shaved coconut, hard-boiled eggs and vegetablepickles. Nasi Dagang literally means "Trading Rice". It is a well-known breakfast food in the states on the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia, such as Terengganu and Kelantan and Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat in Southern Thailand. The most famous Nasi dagang of Terengganu comes from Kampung Ladang, an area within the Kuala Terengganu district. Nasi Dagang can also be considered as a festive dish in Kelantan because it is prepared at home for the morning of Eid ul-Fitr, a Muslim holiday that marks the end of Ramadan, to be eaten as a breakfast before or after the Eid prayers in the mosque.

[edit]Components

Apart from the basic combination of rice and curry, Nasi Dagang usually comes with its different components which can be combined to suit the diner's taste. From a simple serving of the steamed rice and tuna curry usually found at roadside stalls, the complete home-made version may include a sliced hard-boiled egg, fried coconut, vegetable pickle and sambal.

[edit]Rice

The combination of fenugreek seeds and coconut milk gives Nasi Dagang its unique flavour and fragrance. The rice may first be soaked in water for several hours to soften it. It is then mixed with thick coconut milk, sliced shallots, lemon grass and fenugreek seeds. The rice is steamed until cooked. It may also be steamed twice, where more coconut milk is added when it is half-cooked. Then the rice is steamed again until cooked. This method ensures a more creamy finish to the rice.

[edit]Fish curry

This accompanying dish is only specially prepared for nasi dagang and is sometimes locally called 'gulai darat'. 'Curry' is actually a misnomer as the fish is not cooked using Indian curry powder but in coconut milk mixed with traditional Malay spices such as lemon grass, galangal, chilli paste and turmeric.

Tuna is the standard choice of fish but other fish can be used as well, such as tenggiri and salmon. Prawns are also used sometimes, however the 'gulai' is prepared slightly differently.

[edit]Fried coconut

Coconut is freshly shaved, mixed with sliced shallots and fried until golden brown.

[edit]Hard-boiled eggs

Hard boiled eggs are cut into four or eight slices.

[edit]Vegetable pickle

The vegetable is pickled in rice vinegar and sugar. The vegetables commonly used are cucumber, chilli and carrots.

[edit]Sambal

Chilli sambal can sometimes be included.

[edit]Variants

The Terengganu version uses the normal white rice, while the Kelantan variety uses a type of rice locally called 'beras nasi dagang', which is a type of wild rice that has a light purple colour and a little glutinous.

[edit]Erroneous claim

Some people from the West Coast of Peninsular Malaysia claim that Nasi Dagang is the 'Nasi Lemak' of the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia, in the states of Terengganu and Kelantan. This claim is actually unheard of in either place as both dishes can commonly be found sold side by side for breakfast.

The local Chinese community which are mainly urban practise mainly Buddhism. The local state government is helmed by the Pan-Malaysian Islamic party, hence it has pursued a stricter form of Islam in the city and state, Kota Bharu was declared an Islamic City vis-a-vis Kota Bharu Bandaraya Islam. Morality police are ubiquitous here and apprehend people who engaged in acts perceived immoral. Kota Bharu is the most conservative city in Malaysia. The Jawi script is applied in streetnames and restaurants.

Social activities that do not contradict with the Islamic norm are allowed. Government offices and many stores are closed on Fridays and Saturdays, but the vibrant markets remain open except for Islamic prayer times. The conservative Kelantanese state government under PAShas implemented some Islamic laws. These include switching on lights in cinemas during screening time until cinemas were closed down. and separate check-out counters in supermarkets for males and females and khalwat, the Islamic rule on proximity between males and females. However, these regulations only apply for Muslims only.
