Reminder

Assalamualaikum wbt...

Another post? That's fast! That's rare!

Attention readers! This post is gonna be SOO LONG.. So, if you guys are expecting me to ramble and talk about some crappy things, this is not the right one for you. Because this post falls under the category "REMINDER". Look at the title, and look at the tag. So this post serves the educational and reminding purpose. Nevertheless, I sincerely hope that you would care to read this, and care to share your thoughts.

Any comments or critics are welcome.

BUT, if you don't bother to read, the pleasure is entirely yours.

Whatever you say about me, be it good or bad things, I LIVE..

Bak kata pepatah Melayu, "Tak hidup dek puji, tak mati dek keji"

Coz I have Him... That would never judge me the way other people judges. The only judge whose verdict matters to me.

First and foremost, this post is not meant to encourage hatred towards YAHUDI..

Although some of us might say that we should, I'd like to quote some words from the book "Online dengan Tuhan", written by Zulkifli Khair.

Jangan mudah mengatakan bahawa semua Yahudi itu jahat, hal ini berdasarkan 2 hujah:

1 : Yahudi juga terangkum dalam Bani Israel, sedangkan ramai nabi dan rasul daripada kalangan Bani Israel seperti Yaakub, Yusuf dan lain-lain bagi menyelamatkan mereka supaya kembali ke jalan yang benar.

2 : Ramai dalam kalangan Yahudi yang anti-zionis termasuk rabbi (seperti paderi bagi Kristian). Malah, mereka berganding bahu bersama umat Islam dalam menentang Zionisme dan Israel.

Contoh orang Yahudi yang merupakan tokoh Islam.

1. Muhammad Asad (Leopold Weiss)

Terkenal dengan buku The Road to Mecca, menghasilkan tafsir lengkap (The message of Al Quran)

2. Maryam Jameelah (Margaret Marcus)

Menghasilkan buku-buku seperti Islam in Theory and Practice, Correspondence between Maulana Maudoodi and Maryam Jameelah Modern, dan Technology and the Dehumanization of Man.

3. Abdullah bin Sailam (al-Hussain bin Sailam)

Rabbi Yahudi pertama yang memeluk Islam. Pengislaman beliau diikuti oleh isteri dan anak-anaknya. Merupakan salah seorang sahabat yang dijanjikan syurga.

Nevertheless, we have to be aware with Y.A.H.U.D.I.

I was surfing the internet when I found this:

Dalam Al-quran sedikitnya disebutkan 22 sifat buruk bangsa Yahudi, iaitu:

1. Keras hati dan zalim (Al-Baqarah:75,91,93,120,145,170; An-Nisa:160; Al-Maidah:41)

2. Kebanyakan fasik dan sedikit beriman kepada Allah SWT (Ali Imran:110; An-Nisa:55)

3. Musuh yang paling bahaya bagi orang-orang Islam (Al-Maidah:82)

4. Amat mengetahui kekuatan dan kelemahan orang-orang Islam seperti mereka mengenal anak mereka sendiri (Al-An’am:20)

5. Mengubah dan memutarbalikkan kebenaran (Al-Baqarah:75,91,101,140,145,211; Ali Imron:71,78; An-Nisa:46; Al-Maidah:41)

6. Menyembunyikan bukti kebenaran (Al-Baqarah:76,101,120,146; Ali Imron:71)

7. Hanya menerima perkara-perkara atau kebenaran yang dapat memenuhi cita rasa atau nafsu mereka (Al-Baqarah:87,101,120,146; Al-Maidah:41)

8. Ingkar dan tidak dapat menerima keterangan dan kebenaran AlQuran (Al-Baqarah:91,99; Ali Imron:70)

9. Memekakkan telinga kepada seruan kebenaran, membisukan diri untuk mengucapkan perkara yang benar, membutakan mata terhadap bukti kebenaran dan tidak menggunakan akal untuk menimbangkan kebenaran (Al-Baqarah:171)

10. Mencampuradukkan yang benar dan yang salah, yang hak dan yang batil (Ali Imran:71)

11. Berpura-pura mendukung orang Islam tetapi apabila ada di belakang orang-orang Islam, mereka mengutuk dengan sekeras-kerasnya (Al-Baqarah:76; Ali Imran:72,119)

12. Hati meraka sudah tertutup akan Islam kerana dilaknat oleh Allah SWT yang disebabkan oleh kekufuran mereka sendiri (Al-Baqarah:88,120,145,146)

13. Kuat berpegang pada rasa kebangsaan mereka dan mengatakan bahwa mereka adalah bangsa yang istimewa yang dipilih oleh Tuhan dan menyakini agama yang selain daripada Yahudi adalah salah (Al-Baqarah:94,111,113,120,135,145; Al-Maidah:18)

14. Tidak akan ada kebaikan untuk seluruh manusia jika mereka memimpin (An-Nisa:53)

15. Tidak suka, dengki, iri hati terhadap orang-orang Islam (Al-Baqarah:90,105,109,120)

16. Mencintai kemewahan dan kehidupan dunia, bersifat tamak dan rakus, menginginkan umur yang panjang dan mengejar kesenangan serta takut akan kematian (Al-Baqarah:90,95,96,212)

17. Berkata bohong, mengingkari janji dan melampaui batas (Al-Baqarah:100,246,249 Ali Imran:183,184; An-Nisa:46)

18. Berlindung di balik mulut yang manis dan perkataan yang baik (Al-Baqarah:204,246; Ali Imron:72; An-Nisa:46)

19. Mengada-ada perkara-perkara dusta dan suka kepada perkara-perkara dusta (Ali Imran:24,94,183,184; Al-Maidah:41)

20. Berlaku sombong dan memandang rendah terhadap orang-orang Islam (Al-Baqarah:206,212,247)

21. Tidak amanah dan memakan hak orang lain dengan cara yang salah (Ali Imran:75,76; At-Taubah:34)

22. Selalu melakukan kerosakan dan menganjurkan peperangan (Ali Imran:64)

Wallahualam.

Care to share your thoughts? I welcome any piece of mind, worth to ponder..

7 visas, 1 tree, 1 hill

Assalamualaikum wbt..

Last Wed (9th June 2010), the tenants of Apartment *, Karlovo Namesti ** went to renew their visas. They went out at 5.00++ am (o_o), boarded the tram 54 (if i'm not mistaken, but the most important thing is it was a NIGHT tram) and arrived there at about 6.00 am.. [Well fellas, I know this is a report-like post, beats me]

They queued for about 2 hours (standing in lineS) JUST to wait the Foreign Police Office to open at 8.00 am, and queued for another 1 hour (approx) in that office JUST to get their numbers.

2 of them (Bon-Yang and Hoeny Bee) spent a good time went back to Praha 2, to obtain student confirmation letter from the Student Affairs Department (SAD), whilst the remaining fellas (5 osob) waited in silent, praying so hard that they can make it through. [They made a friend with a Cambodian guy who studies in Charles Uni too, archaeology, perhaps?]

They [the 5 fellas] had their brunch at the bench outside the office, with their umbrellas opened. Those Czech people stared with wonder at them as the Czechs never use umbrella for shielding them from sun. [Well, we are already tan enough, you people! No need for sunbathing..]

After having such delicacies made by one of them (the Pawang), 4 of them (Teletubbies, Mai-mon and Kak Long - including Pawang) went for a walk, just to kill the time. Ned-Mon couldn't join their company because she had a stomachache. They walked, walked, walked, walked.. After they walked, they walk again, and again, and again.. And suddenly :

Teletubbies : Hey, let's go to the small hill!

The rest : (Stared at Teletubbies, unblinked.)

Teletubbies : We are looking for a grocery shop, right? We can see lots of them from up there!

The rest : (Continue to walk)

Suddenly...

Kak Long : Look! A shop!

Teletubbies : Buy anything you wish. It's on me..

Kak Long & Pawang : (grin)

They bought 1 juice, 1 chips (original) and another chips with onion and garlic flavour.

This is the HIGHLIGHT. They went up the small hill, found a cozy place to lie down, and found themselves drowned in a not-so-deep-sleep-but-still-satisfying for about 3 hours.

The only tree on the so-called HILL.

Take a closer look.. They slept peacefully for about 3 hours under the shades.

Ignoring passers-by (not in the pic) that stared at them, wondering if they are bunches of homeless people..

REFLECTION:

[Sometimes being abroad make you don't care much about what people think about you, as long as it makes you happy. Cut out the piercing-stares, the pointless murmur or critics. BUT!!!! Always remember tha you represent the 3 M's : Muslim, Malay, Malaysian]

MUSLIM : Do not live as an illusion Muslim, but a true one. in and out. [MASUK ISLAM SECARA KESELURUHAN - 2:208)

MALAY : Do not forget your root; of who you were, and who you are. (You are a Malay, not Malayalam whatnot).

MALAYSIA : Malaysia Boleh! yeah right, but look out for the do's and dont's..

(report, continued:)

They succeeded in making the visa renewal at 4.00 pm (it took almost 11 hours to complete it, but we still thanked God for making it possible for us). And owh, the Cambodian guy was nowhere to be found.. 0_o

Yang benar,

KAKI RETORT & TRIPOD

Pardon for the grammar error.. Dah lame tak buat karangan, dah lama tak bercakap bahasa inggeris, duk bantai cakap melayu je (bahasa czech sikit2)

For Bon-Yang

Assalamualaikum wbt..

New look on my blog.. Refreshing, ey?

Thanks to a certain someone (Bon-Yang) of my house.. *wink*

That person "tacap" my blog, that it comes out like this..

Arigatou, komawo, dekuju moc, thanks!!!

Honestly, I'm pretty lousy at blogging.

I don't know how to edit the layout (wait, I do know some basic stuffs, does it count?), and I have bad taste in choosing the background, etc as well.

Not to mention the grammar errors etc.. (My English 1119 teacher will surely chase after me when she sees how I've become a grammar-butcher).

I have lots and lots to say and write when I'm not in front of my lappy, but when I am about to write a post, all words are gone.. Result --> piles of drafts that are waiting to be published.

Thank god this post made it's way through.

Blogwalking? No.

This is me --> The world's lousiest blogger

Okay, I was a bit exagerrating.. Cut it out now.

This post is made for that someone (Bon-Yang), who claims that she did this to release her tension (a unique way of doing it, but beneficial to others... XD)

Little deeds of kindness,

Little words of love,

Brings the Earth to happiness,

Like the Heaven above.

Thanks Bon-Yang.. Kak Long sayang Bon-Yang... XD

Assalamualaikum wbt..

Just wanna shoot a random question in this boring night.

Which one fits you?

a) Absence makes the heart grows fonder

b) Out of sight, out of mind

As for me, I'm more to B-type. Why? Dunno.

There's more than what meets the eye.

Less is more.

62 years..

Assalamualaikum wbt

Mind you, this is no poem, this is no song

Just the thing that pours from my mind in this early morning

Take note readers!!

1. Pardon for the poor vocabulary and grammar, I'm no good in English, but still trying to polish it

2. Make an insight about the intrinsic value (the content), not the extrinsic value (presentation) of this text.

There's more than what meets the eye.

****************************************

It's 15th May

It's been 62 years

6 decades

Plus 2 years

Does anyone bother about it?

Does anyone even know what it's all about?

It's 15th May

Does it makes any difference to you?

Will it be another boring, insignificant day?

Will you be doing your normal routine

And then call it a day?

It' 15th May

In one part of the world, people both celebrate and mourn.

Strange enough, so contradict, aye?

The two overwhelming emotions in the very same place.

It's 15th May

Have we done anything to alleviate the pain?

Or are we just going to let it be,

claiming it's not our task to ponder or think?

It's 15th May

Let's escape for a while

From the world you thought you know

To the other dimension

Where you know it's existence

Yet you forgot about it, frequently

It's 15th May

And it's not too late

To forget about the pain

And learn from it

Rise with your head held high

Thinking about your people

Instead of yourself only

It's 15th May, the fated 15th May, the dreaded 15th May

Don't let others make us down in dismay

We might not in the same route

But never forget our root

Of who we are, and who we were

And why thing happens the way they happened

****************************************

P/S : For those who have no idea about this poorly written text of mine, have a good look at this :

http://crystalsofcanterbury.blogspot.com/2010/05/apa-itu-nakbah.html

And ah, just another piece of mind

(from the book Sakinah - Sumber Ketenangan Hidup by A Ubaidillah Alias) :

Tiga nawaitu yang meletakkan keikhlasan dalam amal seseorang :

1. Beramal kerana menjauhi dosa dan takutkan azab neraka Allah SWT

2. Beramal kerana mahukan ganjaran pahala dan mengejar syurga-Nya

3. Beramal kerana mencintai Pencipta dan mengharapkan reda-Nya

This poorly written text is made to serve the purpose of reminding you people and me myself.

And I sincerely hope that this doing of mine falls in the 3rd category. Thanks a lot for those who read this post, TOGETHER with the link.

It's just a small part from me, the least that I can made for this while; reminding you and me.

And now it requires your part.

Biology in action!!

This is a poor analogy (but sorry I can't think of other at this time)

Remember the Electron Transport Chain reaction in mitochondria?

Electron = This reminder

Ubiquinone = Me

Cytochorome = You

Proton pumps = Our people

ATP = Result of this reminder

Spread the words around, you people!!

If a job is worth doing then it is worth doing well

Moo-jar-har-dah

Assalamualaikum wbt..

Just wanna share this piece.. =)

Berkata Imam Abu Taimiyah :

Jihad pada hakikatnya ialah berusaha bersungguh-sungguh untuk mencapai apa yang diredhai Allah dari keimanan dan amal soleh dan berusaha menolak atau menentang perkara yang dimurkai Allah sama ada kekufuran, kefasikan dan kemaksiatan.

Menurut Sayyid Abdul-A'la al-Maududi:

"Setiap orang yang berusaha meninggikan kalimah Islam dengan menggunakan segala yang ada padanya daripada harta benda, jiwa raga, pena (penulisan) dan lidah (bercakap atau berdakwah), maka ia tanpa ragu lagi tergolong dalam orang yang berjihad di jalan Allah dengan pengertian jihad yang umum......"

Jihad dengan perngertian yang umum (menurut syara') :

"Segala daya usaha dan segenap kekuatan yang dicurahkan untuk menegakkan hukum atau perintah Allah di atas muka bumi ini dan membersihkan segala Taghut yang menjadi penghalang kepada jalan dakwah."

Jihad umum ini terbahagi kepada 5 jenis :

1. Jihad mali (harta)

2. Jihad tablighi (menyampaikan dakwah)

3. Jihad ta'limi (pembelajaran)

4. Jihad siyasi (politik)

5. Jihad Qital (peperangan)

Buat sahabat-sahabat di luar sana (di GMT+2 khususnya, dan lain-lain time zone), yang akan berhadapan dengan imtihan ataupun sedang berhadapan dengan imtihan, jika tengah terasa down straight to the drain, stress, tekanan perasaan dan apa-apa yang sama waktu dengannya, meh la kite same-same ambil booster dose: set balik niat kita, ingat kewajipan kita (i.e-j.i.h.a.d), di mana kita secara automatik & autokratik jatuh pada kategori ke-3.

Dah siap setting? Bagus.. =)

Maka dengan ini, come hell or high water, even if you fail, you will accept it as you know that He knows what's the best for you. If you cannot make things work, make the best out of it.

Just some random thoughts in a boring night.. Got to reflect myself a little. Alhamdulillah..

(Btw, all the written pieces were copied from the good book Peperangan Rasulullah SAW by Hj Ahmad Adnan Fadhil & Hj Riduan Mohd Nor)

Ooo.. Lala..

Assalamualaikum wbt..

Wee... The awaited parcel from Msia finally knocks the door!!! =)

Yep, I ordered these books online and asked the company to post it all the way from Msia to Prague.. Costly gak r..

Verily, with every difficulty there is relief, with every difficulty there is relief (94:5-6)
