MAHAGURU58

Imam tells a Gay that according to Al Quran and Hadith he should be killed!

This is the kind of answer that should be given by every God-fearing Muslim male and female to anyone who comes to them trying to rationalize their abominable homosexuality and lesbianism tendencies!

No beating about the bush as far as being firm when dealing with those who are promoting such sinful ways against the laws of nature. Even animals won't go the way these weirdos are into these disgusting, filthy habits?

Learn from Allahyarham Syeikh Ahmed Deedat as to how to deal with these sickos?

Dr.Bilal Philips talks about homosexuality and what Islamic laws are concerning it?

I will write more about why its haram ~ forbidden in Islam after this ; Insya Allah.

Bt 14 Hulu Langat Friday Street Market ~ Mahaguru58's Photoshoot Part 2

2012-01-29T13:19:00.000+08:00

Kampong lass.

Enthralled by the Storyteller's tales.

The mystical Malay keris. Standing at attention. Perfect balancing act or what?

Blowing some chants over his medicinal oil. Reminds me of the Wild, Wild West stories of the Snake Oil peddlers. Well, we have ours too in Malaysia.

Elderly citizen of Hulu Langat making his way through the street market.

Caught making faces with her tongue behind her lip! Hehehehehe...kids!

Camera conscious...

For sale ~ tired stall assistant.

The cheeky fellow just wants to rest and the basket looked too good to resist!

Hawking his fresh produce!

Some folks shy away from cameras but not this guy! He gets animated and asks to be photographed! Hehehehehe.....

A willing subject who asked to be captured on camera! Thanks buddy!

His equally willing to be photographed assistant. :)

This guy says that his moustache is his 'misai cari makan!' Wants to give Datuk 'K' a run for his money! Hehehehe...

Doesn't she look like one of those mannequins that the tudung sellers at Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman have at their shops? What a resemblance?

A sporting fellow posing for my camera. Terimakasih brader! :)

A shy vegetables trader. :P

Malu lah nak bergambar! Says she's shy to be photographed!

Another local villager sporting quite a distinguished looking moustache!

A kid who was excited getting a cap that morning! His legs were tap tapping merrily while trying out the cap which his mom bought for him! :)

Happily posing for Atok's camera! Hehehehe....

'One man's trash is another's treasure'. So is the saying that goes with the knick knack trading that is carried out in almost every rural street and urban markets of the world. Here is a scene showing that very saying in action.

Blades of every kind. The old, reproduced and the very modern cutting edges.

Behold the lethal Malay standing keris ~ curved dagger in all its glory!

Which one should I choose? Must be what this man is thinking? The Tamil movies depict such usage of these dangerously lethal hooked machetes a lot! One swing of that sharp hooked edge on the intended victim's neck and we have a decapitation instantly! Fuyoo!!! Nasty and not nice! Stay clear mate!

He bought one of those hooked machete's ~ parang for RM30! Now listening intently to the old weapons trader's tales. Looked pretty engrossed and caught up with the blade peddler's stories...

So was his friend. They both seemed very interested to learn from the old man.

The old blade peddler holding court right on the street. Had lots to share! :)

The traditional tempe ~ soya bean fermented cake seller. How come he doesn't have the glossy new face that Khir Toyo has and claims to be the result of eating tempe all those years? :P

To be continued. Insya Allah.

Bt 14 Hulu Langat Friday Street Market ~ Mahaguru58's Photoshoot

2012-01-29T11:33:00.000+08:00

Friday 27th January 2012.
Hulu Langat, Selangor Darul Ehsan.

I drove to Hulu Langat wanting to buy some 'pisang emas' at the 9th Mile Fruit Stall in the morning. Unfortunately the stall had yet to open for business, so I just drove on wanting to take advantage of the morning sunlight and take some photos of the surroundings.

Hulu Langat is one of my favorite destinations for it is the closest traditional Malay countryside to KL.

I live in Bandar Tun Razak which is about a 15 minutes drive away from the suburban areas of my home bordering the city limits of Kuala Lumpur, my nation's capital metropolis of Kuala Lumpur.

I love to watch the still clear flowing river there in Sg Pangsoon which is about 38 kilometers away from KL.

It so happened that I chanced upon this street market which was in full swing behind the 14th Mile Masjid area at Hulu Langat. So, I parked my car and went sightseeing around the market.

These are some scenes that I managed to shoot that morning:

I came to learn from one of the traders there that this street market is held every Friday, Saturday and Sunday mornings depending on the weather.

This was my first ever visit to this area on a working day.

So, I didn't know about the market all these years that I'd been going there on weekends or whenever I felt like it?

As you can see, the mosque is very close to this street market which is held at a large open space behind it.

All kinds of traditional herbs, vegetables, fresh fruits, salted fish, pickles and preserves, fish, poultry and knick knacks were on sale.

The ever industrious Bangladeshis are everywhere in Malaysia! You can find them plodding along even the most far flung areas in the backwaters of old towns in the Malaysian Peninsular!

Hell! Don't be surprised to see them setting up shop even in the deepest forest reserves and Orang Asli villages in the jungles of Peninsular Malaysia one of these days?

Here they are selling poultry in this street market! What are the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Industry officials doing? Dozing after getting their tummies full, eh? I won't be surprised if there's 'some kind of arrangement' here?

To be continued. Insya Allah.

Narayanan Krishnan, CNN Top 10 Indian Hero who feeds the poor & homeless

2012-01-26T23:09:00.000+08:00

Its not always that we see true gems amongst humankind nowadays. I can only say that this kind hearted good samaritan by the name of Narayanan Krishnan is a rare being.

In these age where many amongst human society do not care for others anymore, Narayanan Krishnan shines through as an exemplary humanitarian.

Here are some info from CNN about Narayanan Krishnan :

Krishnan's day begins at 4 a.m. He and his team cover nearly 125 miles in a donated van, routinely working in temperatures topping 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

He seeks out the homeless under bridges and in the nooks and crannies between the city's temples. The hot meals he delivers are simple, tasty vegetarian fare he personally prepares, packs and often hand-feeds to nearly 400 clients each day.

Krishnan carries a comb, scissors and razor and is trained in eight haircut styles that, along with a fresh shave, provide extra dignity to those he serves.

He says many of the homeless seldom know their names or origins, and none has the capacity to beg, ask for help or offer thanks. They may be paranoid and hostile because of their conditions, but Krishnan says this only steadies his resolve to offer help.

I recall sharing about how the Blessed Messenger of Allah, Muhammad Sallalahu Alaihi Wassallam cared for and fed an old blind Jewish beggar at the marketplace of Madinah al Munawwarah who was always cursing him based upon blind hatred and hearsay?

When the Blessed Messenger passed away, his successor and Companion Caliph Abu Bakar tried to carry on doing the same after learning about it from his daughter Siti Aishah, widow of the Blessed Messenger.

When Sayyidina Abu Bakar tried to feed the old blind Jew, the blind man, caught hold of Abu Bakar's hand and asked as to who he was?

Abu Bakar said that he was the same one who had been feeding him before. The blind man refuted that and said that the one who had fed him before had chewed the food well before feeding him.

Abu Bakar broke down sobbing uncontrollably and confessed to the old blind Jew that it was the Blessed Prophet of Allah, Muhammad the Mercy of God for all creation who had been feeding the blind beggar all those years and now the prophet had passed away.

The old blind Jew was shocked beyond belief and he cried out wail-fully that how wretched a person he was?

He had been cursing the prophet all those years and yet had been fed and nurtured by the very same prophet without a single retort or complaint against his cursing of him.

The blind Jew attested that he was really very, very sorry and declared his Syahadah before Sayyidina Abu Bakar and became a believer.

What Narayanan Krishnan is doing today is reminiscent of what the Messenger of Allah had done for the old blind Jewish beggar before?

He is still helping more than 200 over homeless mentally challenged destitute's in his home city of Madurai, India. He runs the Akshaya Trust dedicated to feeding the poor and the unsound homeless persons living on the streets and sidewalks of his town.

Those who have the means can donate to his cause here.

Menteri Wilayah Raja Nong Chik dicabar peniaga2 Melayu KL Setapak Permai!

2012-01-26T15:29:00.001+08:00

Terlebih dahulu, saya ingin memaklumkan kepada para pembaca budiman bahawa isi kandungan ucapan Datuk Bahrim Razak, Presiden Persatuan Peniaga dan Penjaja Melayu ada perkataan perkataan yang kasar dan tidak sedap didengar tetapi di atas dasar ketelusan didalam menyampaikan berita yang sebenarnya melalui media sosial ini, maka saya siarkan secara penuh tanpa suntingan.

Maka, terpulang pada tuan/puan untuk memutuskan samada hendak menonton ke tidak akan video video berikut ini?

HASIL DARIPADA PROTES PENDUDUK AKHIRNYA SURAU DI IKS SETAPAK DIKEKALKAN

Oleh Sharaimei Shaik Ahmedullah -

PUTRAJAYA 18 Jan.

Syarikat pemaju hartanah, 59 iNC Sdn. Bhd. yang mempunyai hak membangunkan sebidang tanah di Setapak Permai di Setapak, Kuala Lumpur memberi jaminan surau di kawasan tersebut akan dikekalkan.

Menteri Wilayah Persekutuan dan Kesejahteraan Bandar, Datuk Raja Nong Chik Raja Zainal Abidin berkata, jaminan tersebut diperoleh pada perbincangan dengan pihak terbabit di sini, hari ini.

Perbincangan itu turut dihadiri oleh Datuk Bandar Kuala Lumpur, Tan Sri Ahmad Fuad Ismail dan Pengarah Urusan 59 iNC, Fadzil Ahmad.

Mengulas lanjut, Fadzil berkata, isu surau itu tercetus disebabkan salah faham antara penduduk dan pemaju yang tidak berbincang terlebih dahulu bentuk pembangunan di kawasan itu.

Sehubungan itu, beliau berkata, pihaknya akan mengadakan perbincangan dengan semua pihak yang terlibat untuk memperjelaskan secara terperinci isu tersebut dalam masa terdekat.

“Pelan pembangunan di kawasan tersebut masih di peringkat awal di mana kami hanya baru menghantar notis pemberitahuan kepada penduduk.

"Jika pembangunan diadakan sekali pun, sebuah lokasi bersesuaian akan dipilih untuk dijadikan (tapak) surau,” katanya.

Baru-baru ini, isu pembangunan di Setapak Permai kecoh apabila sekumpulan penduduk dan peniaga mempertahankan sebuah surau dan bengkel di kawasan itu daripada dirobohkan berikutan penerimaan notis yang mereka dakwa arahan mengosongkan premis mereka sebelum 30 Januari 2012 ini.

Pengerusi Persatuan Peniaga Putra Damai Setapak, Shahrudin Sapian yang mewakili hampir 70 peniaga di situ kecewa kerana peniaga yang sudah bertapak sejak 1975 diarah meninggalkan kawasan itu tanpa ada sebarang perbincangan.

Sementara itu, ditanya isu bengkel yang diberi notis untuk dikosongkan, katanya, pihaknya akan bertemu dengan pengusaha bengkel tersebut dalam masa terdekat ini.

“Kami sekarang dalam proses akhir menyenaraikan semua pengusaha yang terlibat dan mereka ini kami akan jumpa untuk berbincang sama ada perlu dipindahkan atau diberi pampasan,” katanya.

Sementara itu, Ahmad Fuad berkata, setiap pelan pembangunan yang hendak diluluskan perlu mematuhi syarat ketat oleh kerajaan di mana setiap kemudahan awam seperti surau dan jalan keluar dan masuk perlu disediakan.

Katanya, jika syarat asas tersebut gagal dipatuhi kerajaan boleh membatalkan permohonan pembangunan di kawasan itu.

Jika kita teliti akan keadaan dimana pihak DBKL dan Kementerian Wilayah Persekutuan begitu rakus mengusir orang orang Melayu dan merobohkan premis premis perniagaan industri kecil dan sederhana milik penduduk pribumi tetapi begitu kecut perut dan tidak berani mengusik premis perniagaan dan kediaman masyarakat dari kaum Tionghua seperti kita saksikan didalam kes laluan MRT - Jalan Sultan tempohari?

Tetapi bila melibatkan orang orang Melayu, semberono saja DBKL dan syarikat2 proksi mereka begitu mudah saja menghalau masyarakat Melayu dari kawasan penempatan mereka ditengah tengah bandaraya Kuala Lumpur dan persekitarannya tanpa sebarang pampasan atau perbincangan!

Dato Raja Nong Chik dicabar oleh Datuk Bahrim Razak, Presiden Persatuan Peniaga Kecil dan Penjaja Melayu didalam video di atas untuk berterus terang tentang hakikat bahawa 70,000 ekar tanah rizab Melayu yang ditinggalkan oleh Allahyarham Dato Harun, mantan Menteri Besar Selangor dahulu sudah hilang ditelan dengan rakus oleh pihak kerajaan Barisan Nasional?

Apakah Raja Nong Chik berani menyahut cabaran berapi ini?

Rakyat didahulukan atau kantung sendiri yang diutamakan, syeikh?

Depressed? Lonely? Suicidal? Allah, God Almighty is just a prayer away!

2012-01-26T10:48:00.004+08:00

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

Dear Brothers and Sisters, Children of Adam Alaihis Salam.

Today, all over the world, we often come across many who suffer from depression, complain of feeling all alone and some who choose the easy way out by killing themselves!

In these modern times, despite all the technological advances that mankind has made by inventing all kinds of wonderful forms of telecommunication systems, gadgets and gizmos, many amongst human society suffer from the above situations and wither away from lack of love, compassion, understanding and support.

In my life, I have come across many, even here in Malaysia who bemoan their lack of purpose in life because they have not found true friends or companions in their life who'd make their life worth living?

Its probably due to the fact that people nowadays seldom realize that Allah, God Almighty is just a prayer away and that even if the rest of mankind shuns away from them, He, the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful is there for us, always!

We owe our existence here on Earth only to Allahu Rahman Ar Raheem. For it is He Who chose to create us and that our being here is by no chance but only by His Will and Mercy.

There are many people out there who complain and grumble about just everything in their lives!

From the way that they look to their situations in life? Will anything change by just moaning and sighing with each passing second of their life?

No such thing. Only change that they can expect is to be more miserable as each second tick tocks by!

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says in Surah Ar Ra'ad Chapter 13 Verse 11:

Transliteration

Lahu muAAaqqibatun min bayni yadayhiwamin khalfihi yahfathoonahu min amri Allahiinna Allaha la yughayyiru ma biqawmin hattayughayyiroo ma bi-anfusihim wa-itha aradaAllahu biqawmin soo-an fala maradda lahu wamalahum min doonihi min wal

Sahih International

For each one are successive [angels] before and behind him who protect him by the decree of Allah . Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves. And when Allah intends for a people ill, there is no repelling it. And there is not for them besides Him any patron.

I have had people emailing me lamenting their sorry state of affairs in their life and asking me as to whether there are any do'a's that can change their situation?

How can these people just sit and moan endlessly without making any real efforts on their part to change their fate?

No amount of prayers and beseeching the Almighty is going to change their situation until and unless they get off their sorry butts and go about doing the necessary work that will change their fate!

I am not saying that prayers and do'a's will not help but just stating the obvious that if it is to be, then it is really up to you and me to do what we need to do in order to see that change coming?

In Surah Al Baqarah Chapter 2 Verse 45, Allah Commands us to:

Transliteration

WastaAAeenoo bissabriwassalati wa-innaha lakabeeratunilla AAala alkhashiAAeen

Sahih International

And seek help through patience and prayer, and indeed, it is difficult except for the humbly submissive [to Allah ]

It is true that there are those who without faith in Allah and the Hereafter are enjoying life like kings here on this Earth but the reality that Allahu Ta'ala accords to them so here in this life but not in the everlasting Hereafter is something that rational beings must ponder and deliberate.

Are we looking for temporal enjoyment here or an everlasting blissful future?

Even getting to enjoy the temporal earthly pleasures is but a brief moment that soon passes and we are back to square one!

So, its all up to the person concerned? As to what kind of certainty one looks forward to?

Just willing to be content with a temporal state of enjoyment and fleeting pleasure here on Earth or seeking the promises of Allah the Most Compassionate Most Merciful who created us for a purpose?

In Surah An Nahl, Chapter 16 Verse 97, Allahu Ta'ala promises:

Transliteration

Man AAamila salihan min thakarinaw ontha wahuwa mu/minun falanuhyiyannahu hayatantayyibatan walanajziyannahum ajrahum bi-ahsani makanoo yaAAmaloon

Sahih International

Whoever does righteousness, whether male or female, while he is a believer - We will surely cause him to live a good life, and We will surely give them their reward [in the Hereafter] according to the best of what they used to do.

Thus I question those who choose to lament and moan their life away saying that their future is gloomy and not worth living to consider for a moment as to what they have done to change all that?

Do they not appreciate that they can still think? Still be able to see? To feel? To be able to enjoy all that Allah has given them in the form of their self's? Their sensory organs intact, etc?

Why overlook the fact that at least they are still here on this earth as human beings? Able to change their situation if they are willing to do something about it and not just lay down there looking emptily at their ceiling or up at the skies and wondering aimlessly without exercising their brain cells for the very purpose of their creation which is to worship Allah and be his grateful servant?

The Prophet Muhammad Sallalahu Alaihi Wassallam (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “How wonderful is the situation of the believer, for all his affairs are good. If something good happens to him, he gives thanks for it and that is good for him; if something bad happens to him, he bears it with patience, and that is good for him. This does not apply to anyone but the believer.” (Hadith narrated by Muslim, no. 2999).

Learn to appreciate the 5 situations that we have before it is all taken away by the passing of our time?

The nation's most popular Nasyeed group Raihan sang:

It shares about what mankind need to take advantage of their time here on Earth?

Their state of health before their time of illness;
Their youth before their getting old;
Their state of being wealthy before their bout of poverty;
Their being free before being shackled by their being busy;
Their being still alive before their death!

This reality is so evident in the late Allahyarham Ustaz Asri Ibrahim's nasyeed that he sang about going away permanently:

Life my dear friends is so temporary. Why not appreciate what we have and show those whom we love that they are so important to us before our heart finally stops and we return to the bowels of this earth in our grave?

Maher Zain sings it so nicely conveying this message:

PM Najib buat kerja khurafat! Mana penasihat Agama Islam Tuan Haji?

2012-01-25T10:45:00.000+08:00

Dato Seri Haji Mohd Najib bin Tun Abdul Razak terbukti sedang melakukan kerja khurafat menepung tawar salah sebuah dari 15 buah kenderaan van 'Skuad Sayang' Pergerakan Wanita UMNO Kelantan.

Sumber berita Utusan Online disini.

Menepung tawar adalah suatu perbuatan adat resam Melayu lama yang haram di sisi Agama Islam.

Malah Majlis Agama Islam Malaysia telah mengeluarkan fatwa secara rasmi mengharamkan dan melarang segala bentuk perbuatan khurafat yang haram di dalam ajaran Agama Islam. Sila rujuk kepada e-fatwa berkenaan disini.

Kita sedang hidup di Akhirul Zaman.

Segala bentuk ilmu pengetahuan dan hukum hakam berkenaan Islam begitu mudah sekali dicapai oleh sesiapa sahaja dengan menggunakan sistem perhubungan telekomunikasi tercanggih yang terdapat didalam negara kita berhubung dengan rangkaian laman internet sedunia.

Untuk sesiapa pun umat Islam didalam negara ini atau dimana sahaja di seluruh pelusuk muka bumi Allahu Ta'ala ini untuk berkata bahawa ia tidak tahu akan kedudukan sesuatu perkara itu dari segi perundangan dan Syariat Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala akan hanya membuktikan bahawa ianya jahil tahap gaban dan cuma memberikan alasan semata mata untuk mengelakkan diri dari disabitkan dengan kesalahan yang begitu ketara dan nyata!

Jahil tahap mana? Sendiri mau ingat lah!

Barangsiapa yang mengamalkan perbuatan khurafat serupa dengan cara orang orang kaffir adalah sama dengan mereka.

E-fatwa disini menjelaskan bahawa 'Kepercayaan kepada jin dan memohon pertolongan darinya seperti adat memuja kampung, adat merenjis tepung tawar, adat semah pantai dan sebagainya' adalah HARAM dan berlawanan dengan akidah kita sebagai manusia Muslim yang beriman kepada Allahu Ta'ala!

Dari dok menepung tawar ape ke benda, bukankah lebih elok membaca doa minta selamat beramai ramai bermunajat kepada Allahu Ta'ala untuk memberkati usaha mereka yang bercadang untuk berkhidmat kepada masyarakat menjelang tibanya musim pilihanraya ke 13 nanti?

Berdo'a terus kepada Allah. Tak payah nak pakai perantara. Rasul Sallalahu Alaihi Wassallam sendiri melarang umatnya untuk berwakilkan diri baginda untuk berdoa kepada Allah.

Ada apa apa hajat minta terus kepada Allah. Tak payah nak bakar colok, perasap kemenyan, menepung tawar, segala tok nenek dan sebagainya.

Teringat saya akan kebiasaan orang orang kaffir melukis pelbagai macam rajah dan tanda tanda kepercayaan mereka pada nombor plet kenderaan masing masing.

Siap ada tokong kecil atas 'dashboard', segala macam tangkal 'hekkoh' dan azimat untuk mengelakkan bala konon nya?

Jika saya ada masa lapang, nanti saya pergi ke Balai Polis Trafik Jalan Tun H.S.Lee tengok akan keadaan kenderaan kenderaan yang terlibat didalam kemalangan dan ambil gambar akan kenderaan2 sebegitu sebagai bukti bahawa 'Tidak ada kuasa selain Allah Rabbul Alamin!'

Letaklah kepala apa pun sebagai azimat yakpursalam. Jika takdir Allah bahawa sipolan itu ini akan jadi begini pada saat dan waktu seperti itu dan ini, maka percayalah bahawa ianya akan berlaku juga.

Tak ada tapi tapi atau barangkali lagi, beb!

Haji Najib harus bertaubat!

Tak payah lah nak buat kerja kerja khurafat seperti ini lagi. Taubat Nasuha dan belajarlah akan hukum hakam Agama Islam selaku Perdana Menteri negara Malaysia ini yang kononnnya sudah menjadi 'Negara Islam'?

Kita masih ada banyak kerja membetulkan amalan dan kepercayaan umat Islam didalam tanahair kita ni Tuan Haji!

Baru baru ini saya pergi menjelajah ke bandar lama Tanjong Malim dan Slim River di Perak semasa cuti umum Tahun Baru Cina.

Semasa saya sedang berjalan jalan mengambil gambarfoto bangunan bangunan lama disana, saya disapa seorang lelaki Melayu yang bertanya samada saya ini seorang ustaz berdasarkan penampilan saya?

Saya bertanya kenapa?

Ia mengadu sedang sakit sakit dan meminta di jampi.

:P

Saya bertanya kepadanya samada ia amalkan solat seharian ke tidak?

Ia tersengih saja dan tidak menjawab.

Saya nyatakan kepadanya bahawa selaku seorang Muslim, adalah wajib bagi kita mengerjakan solat 5 waktu dan berdoa kepada Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala memohon perlindungan Nya dan tidak kepada yang lain.

Saya mengajarkan kepadanya contoh beberapa surah pendek yang Insya Allah akan memulihkan dirinya dari sebarang gangguan makhluk halus dan menasihatkannya supaya rajin rajin beramal dengan zikir dan amal ibadah yang diharuskan didalam Islam.

Masih ramai lagi masyarakat kita yang cukup tebal dengan kepercayaan karut dan khurafat serta animisma walau berlabel diri sebagai Muslim!

Sayang sekali PM 1Malaysia kita tak sadar akan haramnya kerja menepung tawar seperti yang dilakukannya itu?

Nak harap siapa yang berani menegur dan menasihati Dato Seri Tuan Haji Mohd Najib?

Jika semua yang sibuk dok bergayut dipinggangnya asyik na'am na'am tak sudah sudah dan diam membisu terhadap salah laku pemimpin tertinggi yang dipuja dan dipuji maka bersedialah wahai tuan puan untuk melihat Murka Allahu Ta'ala nanti menimpa kita!

Na'uzubillahiminzalik!

Kepada Dato Seri Haji Mohd Najib, hamba berseru agar berusahalah menambah ilmu pengetahuan Ad Deenul Islam diri sendiri kerana yang disekeliling Dato Seri ternyata tak boleh diharap untuk membimbing Tuan Haji ke arah yang benar?

Mereka takut 'sorru miss' Dato Seri.

Segala info tentang yang halal dan haram ada tersedia 24jam sehari dihujung jari saja Tuan Haji.

Tuan Haji kan mesra IT? Maka pandai pandailah membuat carian Google tentang apa saja yang Tuan Haji musykilkan?

Susah susah, Tok Mamu sedia berbakti. :) Tak jadi hal! Bisa di atur brader. :)

Hendak seribu daya Haji. Tak hendak? Sorry aa. Hamba dah berusaha.

Mudah2an tak buat lagi kerja kreko macam tu, ye?

Semoga Allahu Rabbul Alamin membimbing dan memberkati kita semua.

Amin Ya Rabb. Amin Ya Rahman Ya Rahim.

Wabillahi Taufik Wal Hidayah.

Najib Turun Padang ~ Rosmah Mansur jeling tajam ~ Album ke 3 ~ BR1M

2012-01-24T19:05:00.003+08:00

Bersambung lagi siaran Album ke3, rakaman gambar2foto acara PM Najib Tun Razak menyampaikan bantuan tunai RM500 pada mereka yang layak dan telah berdaftar diri pada Jumaat 20hb Januari 2012 yang lepas.

1Malaysia! India, Melayu, Cina. Sama sehati dan sewarganegara Malaysia.

Suka tak suka, inilah dia simbol orang Malaysia. 3 kaum utama didalam negara majmuk ini.

Tidak boleh kita menidakkan kewujudan mana mana dari mereka sekarang ini. Sebut saja Malaysia, maka ketiga bangsa ini akan berketerampilan dihadapan. Melayu, Cina, India, dan lain lain bangsa menjadi pasak tanahair ini. Sampai Kiamat.

Maka hendaklah kita semua belajar untuk bertoleransi sesama kita dengan menghormati garis garis sempadan agama, budaya dan resam masing masing. Saling bantu membantu didalam perkara kebajikan bersama. Malaysia Boleh!

Blogger Rezqeen Hill (Kanan) bersama rakannya semasa turun padang ke Bandar Tun Razak membuat rakaman dan mengumpul data untuk siaran diblognya disini. Sahabat Mahaguru58. Mudah2an dapat ketemu lagi di acara2 yang lain dimasa depan. Insya Allah!

Wajah Dato Syed Abdul Rahman Al Habshi, Pengerusi Badan Gabungan Persatuan Penduduk, Rukun Tetangga dan NGO Bandar Tun Razak.

Ini gambar Dato Syed Abdul Rahman bersama kekasih hatinya yang sempat saya rakam. Ada nasihat yang sempat disampaikan kepada pasangan dua sejoli ini. Mudah2an akan dituruti mereka dan diredhai Ar Rahman Ar Rahim. Amin. :)

Hero 1Malaysia berucap dengan penuh semangat kepada para hadirin. Seperti biasa Najib berulang kali bertanya kepada yang hadir samada suka ke tidak menerima bantuan tunai sebanyak RM500? Maka bersorak lah sekelian yang sudah berdaftar dan layak terima fulus sebanyak itu!

Ramai penerima BR1M yang tak sudah sudah meluahkan rasa syukurnya mendapat duit sebanyak itu buat julung julung kali itu didalam hidup mereka dari kerajaan.

Rosmah Mansor menjeling tajam pada lensa kamera Tok Mamu! Oh!...Inilah dia ?? Hehehehe....

Giliran Haji Najib pulak 'usyar' Tok Mamu! Apa agaknya sedang berputar didalam kepala PM 1Malaysia? Hehehehe...

Ada sesiapa bawa ubat sakit kepala?

Hajjah Rosmah dok jeling tajam kat Tok Mamu lagi...

Masa untuk turun dari pentas dan ke khemah beri bantuan..

Teringat saya akan ungkapan lama dari negara China akan kelebihan mengajar seseorang itu mengail ikan dan dapat makan selama hidupnya dari diberi makan seekor ikan untuk sehari itu cuma?

Terpulanglah pada yang berkenaan.

Teringat iklan Petronas! Muniandy Chinnadorai!!! Paatee....Yeah dawg! Let's party!...hehehehe...

PM Najib 'Turun Padang' Parlimen Bandar Tun Razak. Album ke2

2012-01-24T10:55:00.000+08:00

Majlis keramaian yang dihadiri pembesar negara memang membuatkan penduduk kawasan yang dilawati turun beramai ramai. Apatah lagi bila ianya melibatkan pemberian bantuan kewangan secara tunai.

Bagi sebuah negara yang tidaklah sekaya mana pun, kemampuan kerajaannya memberikan bantuan tunai seperti yang sedang dibuat sekarang memang sesuatu yang luarbiasa di rantau Asia Tenggara ini.

Memang sesuatu perkara yang baik tetapi saya terfikir tentang perumpamaan China 'Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will eat for the rest of his life!'.

Makanya saya rasa bahawa kerajaan seharusnya berusaha membimbing rakyat yang sentiasa mengharapkan disuap dan dibelai sepanjang masa ini untuk belajar berdikari dan memastikan setiap pemimpin akar umbi benar benar menjalankan tugas dan tanggungjawab mereka untuk membuka peluang niaga dan berusaha meningkatkan ekonomi masing masing mengikut kemampuan mereka.

Nantikan album ke 3 selepas ini.

PM Najib 'Turun Padang' Parlimen Bandar Tun Razak. Lensa Mahaguru58.

2012-01-23T10:48:00.001+08:00

Sepertimana yang telah saya janjikan sebelum ini, maka inilah dia rakaman gambar2 foto yang sempat saya ambil semasa PM Najib Tun Razak 'Turun Padang' ke kawasan Parlimen Bandar Tun Razak pada Jumaat 20hb Januari 2012 yang lalu.

Lawatan Perdana Menteri ini adalah sempena beliau merasmikan majlis penyampaian duit bantuan RM500 kepada warganegara Malaysia yang berpendapatan RM3000 ke bawah bagi setiap keluarga.

Album1.

Banner PESAKA menyambut ketibaan PM.

Wah! Berbaju Mandarin Dato Syed Abdul Rahman ni! Deepavali nanti pakai kurta gamaknya? Apa apa pun tahniah sebab ada bakat nak mengalahkan ADUN DAP Teratai Jenice Lee yang rajin benar berposter selalu!

Warga tempatan yang sudah berdaftar diri untuk menerima bantuan RM500 mula datang untuk menerima baucar tunai berkenaan.

Pak Hamdzan anggota RELA ceria bertugas mengawal lalulintas dikawasan.

Polis trafik sibuk mengawal kenderaan kenderaan yang dipandu masuk ke kawasan padang bolasepak Seri Johor yang menjadi tapak majlis BR1M Parlimen Bandar Tun Razak.

Aksi sarjan polis trafik yang sempat saya rakam.

Takkan dah pening kepala brader? Ni baru sikit je trafik jem! Hehehehe...

Susah juga jadi anggota polis sekarang. Silap haribulan ada je nak menyaman bilamana terpaksa menguatkuasakan undang2. Rakyat Malaysia sekarang memang dah berubah.

Dulu bolehlah mereka segan dan takut kat polis. Sejak ada golongan yang kaki lawan polis, ular lidi pun dah mula berlagak serupa naga!

Patutnya bila tangkap para penjenayah, sekurang kurangnya biar meringkuk dalam lokap seminggu dua baru ada akai?

Ini tidak! Tangkap tak sampai sejam dua, lepas! Macamana puak puak ni nak serik? Kuatkuasakan lah undang undang! Jangan takut! Kami sokong PDRM!

Wanita UMNO Bahagian Bandar Tun Razak? Yang berbungkus kepala depan pokok tu isteri Raja Nong Chik, kalau tak salah saya?

Orang ramai berbaris untuk mengambil makanan yang disediakan.

Seronoknya dapat belon Angry Bird!

Budak budak. Kalau dah dapat belon mesti lupa hal persekitaran! :)

Renung siapa tu Cik Kak oi? :P

Makcik ni mesti lawa zaman muda muda dulu! Hehehehe....

Tampak jelas kegembiraan pada wajah Cina tempatan ini sebab dapat makan free. Agak agaknya mahu dia jika Najib turun padang selalu! Dapat makan percuma sokmo! :)

Kan saya dah cakap? Memang seronok brader kita ni dapat makan free!

Apa apa pun, saya ucapkan 'Xin Nian Kuai Le' kepadanya dan juga semua masyarakat Cina yang menyambut Tahun Baru mereka.

Bersambung lagi nanti di Album ke2. Insya Allah.

PM Najib Tun Razak singgah solat Jumaat di Masjid Azzubair Ibnul Awwam

2012-01-23T08:39:00.000+08:00

Bandar Tun Razak, Cheras, Kuala Lumpur.
Jumaat 20hb Januari 2012.

PM Dato Seri Hj Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak telah singgah menunaikan Solat Jumaat di Masjid Azzubair Ibnul Awwam di kariah Bandar Tun Razak, Jumaat yang lepas.

Berikut adalah rakaman gambar2foto yang sempat saya rakam.

Masjid ini terletak di persimpangan 3 jalan menuju ke Taman Tenaga dan juga ke arah Bandar Sri Permaisuri serta ke kawasan penempatan rumah murah DBKL.

Arah menuju ke Bandar Sri Permaisuri. Adanya pokok2 di kiri kanan jalan ini memberikan suasana redup dan selesa bagi penduduk kawasan ini. Semoga DBKL akan terus menjaga alam persekitaran Parlimen BTR ini dengan menanam lebih banyak lagi pokok2 untuk kesejahteraan semua penduduk sini.

Anggota PDRM sedia bertugas mengawal keselamatan pemimpin tertinggi Kerajaan Malaysia. Saya ingin melihat lebih ramai anggota polis dari pelbagai bangsa bertugas bersama PDRM. Mana dia anggota polis berbangsa Cina, Sikh, Orang Asli, dsbnya? Kena promosi lebih ni...gaji dan elaun mesti baik punya!

Motosikal berkuasa tinggi milik Polis Di-Raja Malaysia. Memang canggih!

Sarjan Mejar Wan Zohori posing sekejap untuk lensa hamba. Terimakasih tuan!

Saudara Rizalman, Ketua Pemuda Bandar Tun Razak dan Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur. Beliau sudah kenal siapa hamba dan bila bersua sudah tak lokek senyuman! Terimakasih sudi bergambar!

Dato Syed Abdul Rahman AlHabshi, Pengerusi Badan Gabungan Persatuan Persatuan Penduduk, Rukun Tetangga dan NGO, Parlimen Bandar Tun Razak.
Beliau merupakan salah seorang pemimpin yang sedang naik di kawasan ini.

Soalnya BN kawasan parlimen ini diterajui oleh MCA dan didalam PRU ke12, calon MCA BN disini @ Dato Seri Tan Chai Ho kalah kepada calon PKR, Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim. Mahu ke MCA bertukar kawasan dengan UMNO untuk PRU ke13?
Entah le?

Para pengawal PM yang terdiri dari pelbagai bangsa mengawasi persekitaran. Semua yang mempunyai wayar bergulung ditelinga masing masing mungkin anggota UTK @ Unit Tindakan Khas PDRM yang saya rasa mempunyai 'License to Kill'? Jangan cuba main main dengan mereka!

Kelihatan Menteri Wilayah Persekutuan Dato Raja Nong Chik turut bersama PM.

Aiseyman! Orang tengah cium tangan, PM dok tengok kok lain! Rugi bro! :P

Dapat Rizalman peluang untuk berkata kata dengan PM Najib! Yang lain dok tunggu giliran mereka pula! Tak lama pun. Beberapa saat sahaja. Lobi bro!

Nampak pegawai khas PM Najib merenung tajam ke arah saya. Lensa kamera ke atau Bazooka yang pak haji ni dok tala kat arah PM? Kena jaga. Hehehehe!

Menteri Agama @ YB Senator Dato Seri Mejar Jeneral (B) Hj Jamil Khir Baharom yang menjadi khatib dan imam solat Jumaat sampai untuk bersama sama dengan PM. Asyik berkerut je dahi Dato Seri Jamil! Rileks skit brader! :D

Wajah anggota UTK pengiring bermotosikal kuasa tinggi PM. Memang steady!

Sudah selesai bertugas kat kawasan masjid. Sekarang menuju ke kawasan padang bolasepak di Perumahan Awam Seri Johor pula untuk majlis penyampaian bantuan rakyat 1Malaysia yang akan diresmikan oleh PM Najib.

Selepas ini jika sempat akan saya memuatnaikkan gambar2 semasa majlis BR1M pada hari yang sama. Ada gambar2 istimewa dan jelingan Rosmah Mansor yang memandang tepat ke lensa saya. Tunggu!

MB Selangor Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim dicabar menjadi Khatib Solat Jumaat!

2012-01-22T11:03:00.001+08:00

Saya ingin melihat samada MB Selangor dari parti PKR sekarang yakni Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim yang semberono saja merampas portfolio Exco Agama Islam Negeri Selangor dari PAS sanggup dan mampu menyahut cabaran Al Fadhil Ustaz Hassan Basri untuk menjadi Khatib membaca khutbah pada waktu Solat Jumaat akan datang dan mengimamkan sembahyang berjamaah?

Memang benar sabda Nabi Muhammad Sallalahu Alaihi Wassallam bahawa di akhir zaman ini yang memimpin urusan umat Islam diperingkat kerajaan akan terdiri daripada mereka yang terburuk dikalangan masyarakat kita!

"Di antara tanda-tanda semakin dekatnya kiamat ialah dunia akan dikuasai oleh Luka' bin Luka' (orang yang bodoh dan hina). Maka orang yang paling baik ketika itu ialah orang yang beriman yang diapit oleh dua orang mulia" * Riwayat Thabrani*

Exco Agama Islam Selangor sekarang

Diriwayatkan daripada Abdullah bin Amr bin al-'Aas r.a: “Aku pernah mendengar Rasulullah SAW bersabda: “Allah tidak akan mengambil kembali ilmu (agama) dengan mengambilnya dari (dalam hati) manusia, tetapi mengambilnya kembali dengan kematian para ulama hingga tidak bersisa, lalu orang ramai akan mengambil orang-orang bodoh sebagai pemimpinnya yang apabila orang-orang itu bertanya kepada mereka, mereka akan memberikan jawapan-jawapan yang tidak didasarkan kepada ilmu. Maka mereka akan berada dalam kesesatan dan menyesatkan orang lain.”

Hadis # 85 Bab 24, Kitab Ilmu, Mukasurat 96, Sahih Al Bukhari

Saudara saudari sekelian,

Hadis ini menerangkan dengan tepat sekali akan keadaan yang sedang berlaku hari ini didalam negara kita.

Orang yang bukan ahli didalam mentadbir urusan Hal Ehwal Agama Islam seperti MB Selangor dari PKR @ Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim boleh dibiarkan memegang portfolio Exco Agama Islam dan wakil PAS yang dilantik menggantikan Dato Dr Hassan Ali diberikan tugas hanya menjaga Adat Istiadat Melayu serta Hal Ehwal Belia dan Sukan!

Justeru, Hadis Nabi Sallalahu Alaihi Wassallam di atas sudah menjadi kenyataan dan ini adalah di antara petanda akan kehampiran Hari Kiamat didalam kehidupan kita.

Sudah sering kali saya menulis memperingatkan Duli-Duli Tuanku Sultan Sultan Melayu yang memegang kuasa sebagai Ketua Agama Islam supaya menegakkan Syariah Allah yang sebenarnya didalam negara kita tetapi entah kenapa Baginda Tuanku Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah, Sultan Selangor boleh membiarkan kepentingan umat Islam terpinggir dan orang yang tidak layak seperti Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim memegang jawatan sebagai Exco Agama Islam?

Semakin lama semakin kerap perkara perkara karut yang sedang berlaku didalam negara kita ini!

Ditambah lagi bila golongan yang di angkat sebagai ulama tidak sependapat sesama mereka dan saling kata mengata, tuduh menuduh dan sering memfitnah pulak!

Ustaz di dalam video di atas ini mengata ustaz yang bukan sealiran dengan nya dan dijawab pula oleh ustaz dibawah ini yang terasa:

Dua dua ustaz yang terkenal. Namun perang dingin yang sedang berlaku di antara mereka membuka ruang kepada orang seperti Khalid Ibrahim pula yang semberono memegang kuasa sebagai Exco Agama Selangor?

Majlis ilmu agama sekarang sudah menjadi medan berhibur dan berlawak jenaka! Puluhan ribu jamaah yang hadir memenuhi segenap pelusuk masjid2 dan surau tetapi hasil pembelajaran dari majlis sebegitu tidaklah seberapa kerana yang di ingat adalah hiburan dan lawak jenaka semata-mata!

Ada ulasan ustaz di bawah ini yang harus di ambil kira oleh pihak terbabit:

Apa akan jadi pada kefahaman Islam golongan rakyat yang lemah didalam penguasaan ilmu agama Islam mereka?

Semakin keliru le jawabnya!

SOPA and PIPA Bills start losing support due to Internet Blackouts!

2012-01-20T11:48:00.002+08:00

The proposed Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and Protect Intellectual Property Act (PIPA) Bills that were being proposed by the US Congress started to lose support from US Senators who heeded the blackout protests by established reference online sites such as Wikipedia and Reddit following worldwide angst against such attempts by the US Congress to censor the net.

Florida Senator Marco Rubio

PIPA co-sponsor Florida Sen. Marco Rubio withdrew his name and support from the bill on Wednesday, and SOPA co-sponsor Arizona Rep.Congressman Ben Quayle did the same on Tuesday.

Many other US Congressmen started backing off from the controversial bills that are said to be the prelude to US censorship of the internet going against their own First Amendment ~ Freedom of speech and ideas.

Even countries which are said to be conservative such as our own do not censor the internet except for certain objectionable websites which are detrimental to the preservation and upkeeping of our nation's social and moral codes plus accepted principles based upon the Rukunegara.

Which are :

Belief in God
Loyalty to King and Country
Upholding the Constitution
Sovereignty of the Law, and
Good Behaviour and Morality

The United States of America often contradicts itself when it comes to practicing what it preaches?

America speaks of freedom of this and that but goes on worldwide to impose its values and principles upon sovereign countries of the world who do not agree with it or kowtow to it!

Countries such as Afghanistan, Iraq, Panama, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, etc. are amongst those countries which America brands as the Axis of Evil forgetting that these countries do not send their troops to occupy the USA as what America has done and intends to do?

Afghanistan and Iraq have been reduced to rubble and now the US is setting its sights upon the Islamic Republic of Iran. If not for the opposition of powerful countries sitting in the UN Security Council such as the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China, Iran would have suffered the same fate as Iraq by now?

Now, the US Congress are being led by the Lead PIPA sponsor Texas Rep. Congressman Lamar Smith to start imposing censorship on the internet and the immediate blackout responses by Wikipedia and other established reference sites are starting to bear fruit by the reversal of many of the US Congressmen who had earlier endorsed such a debilitating move against the very 'Freedom of Speech' which the American Constitution is said to stand for?

Whereas over here in Malaysia, our Federal Government has pledged to:

build an open and digital democracy of society and it’s on the way to go.
develop the Multimedia Super Corridor which was initiated by our former 4th Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad.
treat the Malaysian Bloggers as partners to move forward together and not to be treated as its enemies.
looking forward to seeing that the Malaysian Bloggers could treat the Federal Malaysian government fairly when publishing articles and comments online.
improve and upgrade our existing telecommunication high speed broadband services by making further investments to aid the relevant telecommunication companies to eliminate the digital gap between the government and internet using Malaysian public.

Having established that, I for one as a Malaysian Muslim Blogger do feel that the onus is upon those of us who blog for the betterment of our fellow citizens and mankind in general and we ought to exercise self-censorship in order to remain relevant and not be amongst the legions of anonymous cyber-snipers who just post comments as they damn well please disregarding the disastrous impact their irresponsible statement's online can cause to the lives of other responsible internet users!

No doubt that the blog is now quite a formidable tool or platform to express one's own ideas, views and perspectives freely, we are still held accountable to whatever we publish online which can be read and viewed by the online worldwide public.

Even mainstream media which once used to pooh-pooh away social media, are now getting into the act and are often willing to highlight some of the views of bloggers who they deem to be relevant to the news of the day? Good for them!

Hence, it is fair to take note that just as we are free to blog as we deem fit, we must also be aware that once we press 'Enter' and have our postings published online, there is no undoing of that act and pressing 'backspace' does not erase or undo whatever we have inadvertently published that immediately gets stored permanently into the internet archives?

The US Congress might have meant well to protect the intellectual rights of content creators who have worked hard to come up with whatever digital products of their own and through which they had meant to earn from but there are still other ways to go about protecting their intellectual property?

Made for commercial gains feature films, music videos, documentaries and the likes can always be embedded with the latest top of the line encryption systems and secured technologies which would stop unscrupulous online digital pirates and illegal downloading of such items.

All it takes is a bit more initiative in safeguarding their rights over their made for sale digital products.

Great quality is said to come with a reasonable price so why shortchange oneself and let all of one's hard work go to waste because one tends to be a penny pincher whilst at the same time wanting to make big money online?

I guess that the SOPA and PIPA Bills proposed by Lamar Smith and gang will soon be a thing of the past until some other shortsighted party takes it up once again to make it their agenda in trying to curb the voices of the free and brave ones online?

Having said all that, I do sometimes wonder why some anonymous spineless tweeps still send me unwarranted comments and try to curb me from speaking my mind freely online whenever I write or publish my thoughts which might differ from theirs just because I do not support or blindly agree with their chosen political candidates for public office?

Aren't we still a democratic country? Free to support or vote for whoever we are inclined towards?

How come that just because one has returned from one's Haj, one now has to supress one's thoughts and ideas to oneself and no longer be free to express oneself through one's own space online such as through this blog?

Hmmmm...

I guess such spineless dweebs will forever remain as a blotch in this realm of the worldwide web because they are all for their own freedom to wreak havoc and dissension online but not accord others the same freedom to do as they rightfully wish?

Talk about blinkered minds! I guess that's a specialty of the ones who are sort of oblivious to the truth no matter how often it is established and presented to them who adamantly refuse to see and hear any differing viewpoints which doesn't suit their agenda?

Frankly speaking, I don't really care about these cyber trolls who do not have it in them to be upfront as to who they really are and often choose to shoot off their useless comments to others whilst remaining anonymous behind all those pseudonyms and fake id's.

Unlike some others who don't care as to what kind of feedback that comes into their comment inbox, I have always exercised my rights to keep my blog free from such spam. It's my right, isn't it?

Life my dear fellow internet users is what we make of it? If we are to listen to just every troll out there, we wouldn't be living as we want to? We'd merely be another one of their mindless puppets, wouldn't we? May Allah Forbid!

So, just go with God and blog righteously and responsibly. After all, won't we all will be held accountable for what we publish to the public domain online in the Hereafter, Insya Allah?

Have a blessed Jumaat, dear Muslims. Fee amanillah!

Unravelling Malaysia ~ The Consequences of Weak Leadership since Dr M!

2012-01-19T15:06:00.004+08:00

Ever since Tun Dr.Mahathir Mohamad relinquished power and stepped down as the 4th and longest ruling Malaysian Prime Minister, things have started to unravel and letting loose all those who toed the line during his time and have now started to grow too damn big for their breeches!

Things that were once taboo and not spoken about openly are now being trashed out as they please by all those with grudges and endless dissatisfaction's permeating each and every sorry sickly cell of their bodies.

Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi ~ The one who became PM after Mahathir opened up the dissenting floodgates and allowed all the pent up demons loose onto the Malaysian public.

Vulgarity is now considered part and parcel of life here in Bolehland.

All kinds of social misfits and queers now reign supreme unhindered as Najib Tun Razak ~ the one who took over power from the 'Always in La la land' Abdullah Badawi has proven to be no better than the lethargic Imam Hadhari.

His indecisiveness is now becoming quite a legend. He does not have it in him to stop the rot before it gets worse but goes around the country with his rallying call for a '1Malaysia' which is in actuality just a sort of icing on a stormy cake of political upheavals!

More harm is being done by allowing all the troublemakers and instigators such as the ones behind the BERSIH street protests and recent student uprisings which are like a cancer eating up into the peace and harmony of this country.

Anwar Ibrahim sort of established a national record for the most number of postponements for his sodomy case lodged by a former 'coffee boy' he engaged in his role as the PKR adviser over the last couple of years.

60 postponements, if I am not mistaken?

On the 9th of January, 2012, he was acquitted and discharged from the case because the judge couldn't bring himself to find the man guilty just based upon the DNA evidence of Anwar's semen said to have been found in the orifices of the said victim which couldn't be corroborated a 100%!

Here is a video statement by Anwar Ibrahim in a tv interview conducted by the BBC while Anwar was abroad in Mumbai, India.

The statement issued by Anwar Ibrahim upon being released and discharged from the sodomy case against him calling for the 'archaic laws' to be reviewed concerning 'gay rights' as a response to the question from the BBC host leaves me wondering just what the hell is he trying to champion here?

Lesbianism, Homosexuality, Tran-sexuality and other forms of sexual perversity is haram in Islam, forbidden by Allahu Ta'ala and human nature.

Its not only utterly disgusting to be practiced by any sane human being but also will be the cause of major social disaster to befall the human race. It will also mean the end of the human race and the breakdown of social norms and order.

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala condemns those who are into sodomy in the Surah Al A'raf Chapter 7 Verse 81:

Transliteration

Innakum lata/toona arrijalashahwatan min dooni annisa-i bal antum qawmunmusrifoon

Sahih International

Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing people."

I received an email from Abu Aqif Studio alerting me to a TV3 program where the learned Mufti of Perak Darul Ridzuan Sahibus Samahah Tan Sri Harussani Zakaria and the up and coming young Ustaz Fathul Bari Dato Mat Jahaya were the tv program's guests and they spoke about the issue concerning Anwar Ibrahim's call for the 'archaic laws concerning the 'gay rights' to be reviewed:

Its sickening to see someone like Anwar Ibrahim who desires to rule over Malaysia advocating for the reviewing of such anti-homosexual laws of this country which are based upon the gist of Allah's Commandments!

Na'uzubillahiminzalik!

May Allah Forbid that we are ever ruled by such a person!

I call upon each and every true Muslim not to support such a renegade against the prohibitions of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala!

The rulers of this country no longer have it in them to uphold the laws of this country. Instead, Najib Tun Razak is pussyfooting with the likes of Anwar Ibrahim and his Opposition Pact just because he wants to remain in power as the Malaysian PM.

YB Dato Seri Dr Hj Ahmad Zahid Hamidi

I'd rather have Dato Seri Dr Hj Ahmad Zahid Hamidi or Tan Sri Hj Muhyiddin Hj Yassin as our next PM!

YAB Tan Sri Hj Muhyiddin Hj Yassin

The current '1Malaysia' spouting pushover has unravelled so much more than Abdullah Badawi in letting loose troublemakers and instigators in shaking up the foundations of this once respectable developing nation.

Nowadays, the kinds of sin that takes place here in Bolehland rivals those taking place in sin cities such as Bangkok, Haadyai or Amsterdam!

Not that I've been there to know about it in person but from sources gleaned online in my research through Google, etc.?

I sure hope that the division heads in UMNO have more spine in them in bringing about a change in their top leadership but from a heartfelt answer from the one I proposed about whether he'd want to lead the nation if enough nominations are for him to take over, the reply was a curt and decisive 'No!'.

He's happy being where he is right now. I'm talking about Zahid!

So much for my hopes of seeing Mr.Pink Lips retire soon?

We are, ladies and gentlemen of Malaysia, stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea, so to speak?

Whatever is gonna become of us, we just have to pray that it isn't the one calling for the 'archaic laws' of this country concerning sodomy to be reviewed or repealed, who gets to be calling the shots in Putrajaya no matter what!

Malaysia will be doomed if that improbability ever takes place!

Na'uzubillahiminzalik!

Wikipedia Blackout! Imagine a World without Free Knowledge?

2012-01-18T14:47:00.000+08:00

Those of us who do research and study about any topic before we publish our articles online have often used the Wikipedia to backup or corroborate any established and verified facts concerning the very subjects that we write upon all these while free of charge.

The US Congress intends to limit the kind of information that Wikipedia has been publishing online for free all these years and wants to impose all kinds of restrictions on Wikipedia under the blanket SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and Protect IP Act.

In a way this is akin to censoring the Internet by way of limiting the amount and type of information that has been made available to the global internet using community of mankind.

So much for the so called Freedom of Information that the USA has always been crowing about when going on its neo-colonization of oil-rich countries in the Middle East and what the former US President George Wacko Bush Jr had always been saying,"They hate our freedom! bla..bla..bla" when he was in office!

He later admitted that Iraq had no weapons of mass destruction which he used as an excuse to go to war in that now destroyed country! Watch this:

So much for freeing the Iraqis of Saddam Hussein and his regime! Those Iraqis are in much more worse situations today and have had hundreds of thousands of their fellow citizens massacred by the invading American neo-colonialists, their wealth and riches robbed from them, their civilization destroyed and country practically returned to the Stone Age, economy devastated, culture smashed to smithereens, etc!

Back to the topic at hand.

Wikipedia has been very useful to bloggers like myself and I find it very disconcerting that such a move is being made to muzzle one of the most useful sites online by the US Congress!

What kind of change is President Barack Hussein Obama Jr bringing to the USA in particular and the worldwide web, may I ask?

If advocating a blinkered internet is the kind of change that the Obama Administration is trying to impose on us all, then I say that maybe the voters over there in the US of A would be inclined to change their current President realizing that Obama Jr has been riding on a wave of lies and empty promises to all of us all these while?

He promised to shut down Guantanamo Bay....still there and in full operation.
He promised that his administration would seek ways to forge closer and better ties between the USA and Muslim nations .... many Middle Eastern countries are still suffering from American policies and his troops are now even so bold as to desecrate the dead bodies of Afghanistanis whom they killed in the name of freedom, bla bla bla...
You can check out whether he did or did not keep to his promises here!

So now, the US Congress intends to wreak havoc with our access to free reliable information and media provided by Wikipedia.

What makes the US Government any different from the Chinese for wanting to control access to the internet?

Wikipedia is right in protesting against the US Congress's interference. I for one support Wikipedia.

What about you?

Parental Hindrances faced by Reverts to Islam and other Islamic matters

2012-01-17T12:12:00.000+08:00

Syeikh Abdur Raheem Green answers a question from a revert to Islam as to how to deal with her parents who stopped talking with her after she reverted to Islam?

Little do these clueless Non Muslim parents know how much Islam enjoins its adherents to love and respect them as long as they both shall live?

The status of the mother in Islam is so much more higher than anyone else in the world to the Muslim.

In fact when a man asked the Prophet Sallalahu Alaihi Wassallam as to whom should he pay the greatest respect to, the Blessed Messenger answered," Your Mother!"

The man then asked," Then to whom?"

The Prophet answered," Your mother!"

The man asked again," After that to whom?"

Again the Prophet answered," Your mother!"

The man asked again," Then to whom?"

The Prophet replied," Your father!".

Subhanallah! Such is the high status given by Islam to the position of the mothers.

In Surah Luqman Chapter 31 Verse 14 in the Holy Al Qur'an, Allahu Rabbi has revealed:

Transliteration

Wawassayna al-insanabiwalidayhi hamalat-hu ommuhu wahnan AAalawahnin wafisaluhu fee AAamayni ani oshkur lee waliwalidaykailayya almaseer

Sahih International

And We have enjoined upon man [care] for his parents. His mother carried him, [increasing her] in weakness upon weakness, and his weaning is in two years. Be grateful to Me and to your parents; to Me is the [final] destination.

I have learned of how reverts to Islam often come to be shunned and ostracized by their parents without knowing that only in Islam do we know of religious decrees to respect and honor one's parents above all others and to be of service to them as best as we can except if they call one to commit any sense of disobedience to Allah!

Cikgu Aliya often shares with us her experiences with regard to her parents when she first embraced Islam in her blog Musings of a Mualaf. She has written many excellent articles with words coming straight from her blessed heart.

I'd like to share with you one such article and this concerns her still Buddhist mom.

Mothers hold a special place in everyone's heart but then we also sadly hear of some who do not respect their parents and have harmed them just because they wanted to have something from their parents and when denied resorted to criminal violence in getting what they wanted?

It's terrible but that's the reality nowadays.

It could also be related to the kind of mothers we read about nowadays?

How often do we hear about some unwed mothers who throw their illegitimate offsprings into the garbage dumps or even try to flush their baby down the toilets after giving birth to them whilst the irresponsible father is nowhere to be seen?

Its usually the ignorant teenage moms who are left to face the music whilst their paramours are long gone after the girls get pregnant and left to suffer the consequences of their out of marriage sexual affairs.

Such is the calamity of illicit sex between those who are young and irreligious or even if they know the rights from the wrongs become victims of their own raging lusts and succumb to the temptations of the flesh!

The high status of the mothers is sullied by the advent of liberalism and abandonment of time honored social and cultural values that held society together.

Whether we like it or not, our society's reluctance to nip the problems in the bud have given way to an avalanche of sexually related social problems in a growing number of such infanticide amongst the teenagers and young adults of this developing nation.

Ignorance about the dictates of one's religion such as Islam adds to our society's problems and the failure of those religious officers to do what they are supposed to do in the first place compounds the state of affairs as far as religious observances are concerned in this country that proclaims itself to be that as a Muslim nation?

Nothing could be further than the truth for Mamluk al Malaisie is a country ruled by those who don't really practice what they tend to preach?

It is the parents who decide as to what we become?

Whether we turn up to be good Muslims or amongst the ignorant ones depend as to what our parents or guardians teach us?

The responsibility to nurture and guide us all also depends on our authorities. They can't just shirk the trust we give unto them. Unfortunately, we see the ones who are supposed to be in power over us in Malaysia often fail to do that!

Islam is just given lip service and the ones in authority over us are often quite lethargic as far as carrying out true Dakwah efforts in educating and guiding the impressionable youths we have in Malaysia.

Non Muslims are not given the true picture as to what Islam actually is here in this multi-ethnic, multi-faithed country and quite often we see Islam being portrayed as a stifling way of life when in actuality it was revealed to us as the only way of life meant to liberate and free mankind from all unnecessary dogma and misguidance caused by those who are out to take advantage of human's ignorance.

Treacherous ones amongst the authorities often commit serious criminal breaches of trust by the citizens of this country and are only interested to advance their own agendas and causes, namely in feathering their own palatial nests.

I have often shared my ideas with my friends who are in such authority and am glad to state that one such friend is the learned Mufti of Perlis, Dr Hj Juanda Jaya, who agrees with me that the learned ones must be willing to go into the midst of our society to teach and share knowledge about Islam to all.

One of my suggestions to him is to start having Q & A sessions concerning Islamic Affairs after the Jumaat prayers. He agrees in principle but says that a lot of preparation has to be done in the sense of having qualified and capable scholars rising up to the challenge? Let's see if this idea of mine comes to be?

Insya Allah!

In countries such as the Netherlands, religion is fast seen to be disappearing in one of Europe's most secularized country.

Here's a video about the secular country published back in 2006 :

Even the Christian churches are seeing a serious drop in their attendees and all kinds of sin is proliferating at an alarming rate.

Their Western society is going from bad to worse and secularists such as Geert Wilders go all out to try and stem the mighty tide of Islam that is sweeping away many of the atheists and agnostics or those without religion into the sweet embrace of Islam.

Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands and Princess Maxima knew better to observe and respect the Islamic laws pertaining to the modesty of women when Their Majesties recently visited a masjid in Abu Dhabi:

As expected, her observance of the Code of Modesty for women has come under attack from one of her most despicable subjects in the form of the lunatic Geert Wilders of the Freedom Party!

Her Majesty promptly dismissed it as reported here.

We too have our forms of Geert Wilder's crazed mentality. We often find such weirdos spewing such hatred in sites such as Malaysiakini, etc.

Malaysian PM Najib's lethargy and his cousin's ineffectiveness adds to our problems. They'll answer for it in the Akhirat, for sure!

Islam is the true faith from God Almighty that raises women from being mere objects of sexual gratification in the days of yore to the high standards that they enjoy under the shade of Ar Rahman.

From my observance of human cultures that differentiate from one country to another, it is the lack of religious knowledge that causes some societies to abuse and neglect the rights of their women to enjoy safety, protection and respect that God Almighty commands us to give to our mothers.

Understanding Islam and observing its principles is all up to each individual professing it but society as a whole has its responsibilities in seeing to it that we all look out for and help each other in order to bring about a society that is peaceful and harmonious where all can live in relative safety and goodwill.

Those who have the knowledge of Islam ought to share their 'Ilm with those who have yet to learn of it and to go about doing so in ways that are best and most gracious.

There's a Fiqh Convention starting today at the PWTC and it advertises about 18 scholars of Islam hailing mostly from those oriented to the Opposition Party @ PAS.

Its not often that one sees religious figures from PAS congregating at the head office premises of UMNO, the ruling Malay party heading the Malaysian Federal Government.

Quite an interesting development, I say. Who knows? Maybe, we might just get to see some of these PAS religious figures interact with those from the UMNO leadership if their paths do cross whilst they are at it?

I say that it's good for the Muslims of this country to sit down and discuss with each other in the best ways to look out for the good of all its citizens and the availability of the best facilities at the PWTC should make it an excellent venue to look for the common good amongst us and not turn it to be a centre for dissension amongst the Malaysian Muslim ummah.

Maybe we can look forward to seeing the PWTC be used to hold forums and seminars on Islamic affairs and see the participation of all parties concerned to bring about a better future for all according to what Allahu Rabbi commands us to?

Insya Allah.

Allahu Ta'ala calls upon us to return to Him if we have differences amongst us:

Transliteration

Wa-in jahadaka AAala antushrika bee ma laysa laka bihi AAilmun fala tutiAAhumawasahibhuma fee addunya maAAroofanwattabiAA sabeela man anaba ilayya thumma ilayyamarjiAAukum faonabbi-okum bima kuntum taAAmaloon

Sahih International

But if they endeavor to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, do not obey them but accompany them in [this] world with appropriate kindness and follow the way of those who turn back to Me [in repentance]. Then to Me will be your return, and I will inform you about what you used to do.

Surah Luqman Chapter 31 Verse 15

Wouldn't those who claim to be the scholars of Islam want to heed His Call?

May Allah bless and guide us all.

Ameen.

Kolaveri Di ~ Hindraf's Version to rile up Malaysian Indians against PM Najib

2012-01-14T13:40:00.001+08:00

You've got to admit it that the outlawed HINDRAF are quite creative in using the viral Kolaveri Di music video sung by Indian actor Dhanush and is spreading like wildfire amongst the You Tubers out there into spreading their agenda amongst our Malaysian Indians online!

For those of us who can speak and understand Tamil, the message in HINDRAF's version of the hit song Kolaveri Di is obvious ~ they are asking the Malaysian Indians to not vote for the BN.

But then again, the question comes as to who else are they supposed to vote for?

The Malaysian Opposition haven't exactly delivered as they promised the Malaysian Indians?

Remember Anwar Ibrahim's promise to the Indians of Kampong Buah Pala in Bukit Gelugor, Penang? Watch the following evidences:

That's the parliamentary constituency of the DAP Chairman Karpal Singh. Despite all kinds of promises made by Anwar and gang, Kampong Buah Pala was demolished totally even disregarding a self-immolation attempt by one distraught Indian mother there!

An affected Kg Buah Pala Indian asks what the Lion of the Courts @ Karpal Singh has done for the Indian villagers of Kampong Buah Pala?

So many people promised them this and that but at the end of the day, it was the Kg Buah Pala Indian villagers who got played out:

Some of the gathered Indians took offense to a derogatory remark said to have been uttered by a police officer there against them:

This is a post demolition video of the now gone century old heritage Indian village :

Its not like I am denying that the Malaysian Indians are suffering from a serious lack of responsible leadership from amongst the various political parties and NGO's.

Their plight is true and most lower income group Indians are reeling from poverty, lack of education, restricted job opportunities, social and moral problems as a result of having all these so called champions of their Malaysian Indian community betraying them at every given chance and opportunity all these years.

The future of their next generation depends on us and what we decide today?

I'd rather see these boys grow up and become successful than see them amongst the people who would be in trouble in the years to come!

The Indians really need to have a new set of leaders from across the Malaysian Indian diaspora we have now in Malaysia.

We need to see them live a better more meaningful life led by decent leaders who really walk their talk and not end up getting stabbed in their backs again and again under all earlier false promising crooks pretending to be their Makkal Champions!

I leave it to the Malaysian Indians to decide as to whom they wish to support?

From my own experience in dealing with him in person during my coverage of the Hulu Selangor By-Elections before, I see such a leader in the person of the Hulu Selangor MP YB P.Kamalanathan.

He is an intelligent person and capable of bringing all the Malaysian citizens including the Indians up from where they are now struggling in? He is quite loved by his constituents. That's important for any politician. To have support.

But he can't do it alone. He needs to have a strong team of similar dynamic young Indians. The problem is that some of these chaps might just go Brutus on him in the event of them getting too big for their breeches?

Just do not regret it later when the ones you thought will help you out turn to be just the same bullshit spewers like those of the past but under a brand new disguise and get up?

I pray that their true potential will be realized and someone really worth their support will turn up soon.

Very soon, Insya Allah.

In the meantime, congratulations to whoever came up with this version of Kolaveri Di. If properly managed, you might just open up a whole new world of opportunity for our local Malaysian Indian artistes.

No matter who or what we are, we are all Malaysians and it is our duty to help one another to live a decent, free from social and economical problems.

Millions of foreigners are coming to earn and make their living here. Time to make sure that our Malaysian people are not left behind in our national quest to make Malaysia a developed nation in the next 8 years or so?

All Malaysians need to be supported by the government, no matter that they be from the BN or the Opposition.

United we stand strong ; divided we will fall and this nation will be lost to us!

We can't afford to have that. We must help each other succeed! In Islam, it is enjoined upon us to help our neighbor. I'm sure we can do more than that!

Let's prosper our fellow citizens!

Malaysia Boleh! :)

Insya Allah!

Saf pertama ~ 'Reserved for VIP's'? Angkara siapa? Jom baca!

2012-01-14T10:29:00.000+08:00

Saf pertama

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

Semalam, sesudah solat sunat Ba'diyah Fardhu Jumaat, saya ke pejabat Ketua Imam di salah sebuah masjid didalam kariah saya.

Seperti kebiasaan saya, menjalinkan ukhuwwah silaturrahim dengan tok imam dan lain lain ahli jawatankuasa masjid berkenaan.

Saya di sambut dengan mesra oleh Ketua Imam, kawan saya itu dan kami saling bertanya khabar dan bertukar pandangan tentang isu isu semasa berkaitan hal ehwal Islam dan kehidupan masing masing.

Tetiba muncul seorang pemimpin tempatan yang bergelar dan Tok Imam bingkas bangun menyambutnya serta berkata jika ia tahu VIP berkenaan ada hadir ke solat Jumaat tadi, ia sudah tentu akan menyediakan tempat di saf pertama baginya!

Lantas saya menegur Tok Imam dan berkata bahawa didalam ajaran Islam kita tidak ada sebarang peruntukan berkenaan bilamana mahu ditempah atau dikhususkan tempat di saf pertama bagi para pembesar dan orang2 bergelar negeri mahupun negara!

Saya merujuk akan sejarah silam dimana para khalifah Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala tidak melampau lampau didalam zaman pemerintahan mereka seperti Sayyidina Umar al Khattab yang amat berjaga jaga didalam soal pengkhususan atau apa apa keistimewaan yang mahu diberikan kepada dirinya semasa bertugas sebagai khalifah kepada umat Islam.

Saya menasihatkan kepada pembesar berkenaan supaya jangan di ikut cara Tok Imam itu dan jika ia benar benar mahu berkhidmat kepada rakyat dan mahu jika dicalonkan didalam PRU ke 13 yang akan datang supaya duduk sahaja di kalangan para jamaah jika ia terlambat datang?

Saya memberikan ia contoh yang dilakukan Presiden Republik Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad yang begitu merendahkan diri selama ia sedang memerintah negara Parsi di Timur Tengah.

Beliau akan duduk dikalangan rakyat tanpa sebarang protokol atau menuju ke saf pertama seperti kelaziman kebanyakan orang orang besar didalam negara kita dan mana mana negara lain yang tidak mencontohi sunnah Rasulullah dan cara para Sahabat Rasulullah yang ajma'in.

Mana ada dizaman ini, pemimpin negara Islam seperti Presiden Mahmoud Ahmedinejad?

Satu satunya pemimpin negara Islam yang tidak sombong terhadap rakyat yang dipimpinnya?

Boleh selamba je duduk disisi rakyat jelata tanpa sebarang keistimewaan yang lazimnya dituntut oleh para Sultan, Raja, Presiden, Perdana Menteri dan sebagainya?

Tak adanya permaidani merah atau kuning yang akan dihamparkan baginya.

Jika ia didalam perjalanan dan masuk waktu solat, ia akan solat ditepi jalan diatas hamparan permaidani biasa saja. Tak ada protokol, hu ha, apekebenda?

Cumanya ia seorang pemimpin Syiah yang kita tidak boleh terima pengamalan mereka. Ada banyak cara Syiah yang kita tak setuju. Tapi itu cara mereka.

Cuba bayangkan jika ia seorang pemimpin Sunnah Wal Jamaah?

Tak tertanding lah mana mana pemimpin negara Islam yang ada dimuka bumi ini sekarang?

Gambar menunjukkan ia menghindarkan diri dari bersalam dengan wanita yang bukan muhrim baginya. Jika dikalangan orang orang kita, sudah tentu lain jadinya.

Semasa ia di Makkah, ia tidak keberatan menaiki trak bersama jamaah yang lain! Mahukah mana mana pembesar kita buat seperti itu? Mimpi saja lah!

Beginilah kelaziman cara Presiden Republik Islam Iran ini tidur di rumahnya. Ada mana mana VVIP atau VIP negara kita yang sanggup ikut? Mimpi sajalah!

Sila ke blog ini untuk membaca selanjutnya.

Sayang sekali Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ini seorang pemimpin Syiah! Jika tidak sudah tentu ia dipilih menjadi tokoh terkemuka dunia Islam kita!

Ada juga pemimpin dikalangan umat Islam negara kita yang zuhud bertempat.

Di tanahair diterampilkan imej zuhud tahap gaban tetapi di Makkah naik berbintang bintang tahap mutu hotel penginapan dan cara ia dilayan! :)

Nak buat macamana katanya? Dah orang berebut nak taja! Ambo setuju je..:P

Cuba kita tengok cara hidup PM 1Malaysia Dato Seri Hj Mohd Najib bin Tun Abdul Razak pula?

PM kita bermewah mewahan di mahligai Seri Perdana kediaman rasminya. Majlis majlis keramaian di sulami dengan gesekan biola dan segala macam hiburan semasa.

Aurat wanita jangan cakap lah? Kerna ratu hati PM walau berapa kali mengerjakan umrah dan haji tetap kebal dan kekal dengan sanggul karannya!

Bagi kalangan Sultan, Raja Melayu dan kerabat di raja Kesultanan Melayu, tak payah nak nasihat lagi, gamaknya? Dah berbuih mulut saya nasihat secara berhemah dan terbuka melalui penulisan di blog ini namun nampaknya mereka sum mum buk mum om yom fahum laa yarr ji 'uun, beb!

Penasihat penasihat agama di istana2 nampaknya tak terdaya mentarbiyyah golongan yang buta tentang Surah An Nur Ayat ke 31 ini :

Malay

Dan katakanlah kepada perempuan-perempuan yang beriman supaya menyekat pandangan mereka (daripada memandang yang haram), dan memelihara kehormatan mereka; dan janganlah mereka memperlihatkan perhiasan tubuh mereka kecuali yang zahir daripadanya; dan hendaklah mereka menutup belahan leher bajunya dengan tudung kepala mereka; dan janganlah mereka memperlihatkan perhiasan tubuh mereka melainkan kepada suami mereka, atau bapa mereka atau bapa mertua mereka atau anak-anak mereka, atau anak-anak tiri mereka, atau saudara-saudara mereka, atau anak bagi saudara-saudara mereka yang lelaki, atau anak bagi saudara-saudara mereka yang perempuan, atau perempuan-perempuan Islam, atau hamba-hamba mereka, atau orang gaji dari orang-orang lelaki yang telah tua dan tidak berkeinginan kepada perempuan, atau kanak-kanak yang belum mengerti lagi tentang aurat perempuan; dan janganlah mereka menghentakkan kaki untuk diketahui orang akan apa yang tersembunyi dari perhiasan mereka; dan bertaubatlah kamu sekalian kepada Allah, wahai orang-orang yang beriman, supaya kamu berjaya.

Didalam kubur kita nanti, Malaikat Mungkar dan Naqir tidak akan membeza bezakan di antara yang bergelar atau yang marhaen!

Tak adanya gelaran2 kebesaran duniawi di gunapakai didalam Alam Barzakh nanti.

Tuanku ke Tengku ke, Tun ke, Tan Sri ke, Dato Seri ke, Dato Paduka ke, ape ke benda pun tak ada maknanya di dalam Alam Kubur nanti?

Maka tak payahlah para Imam dan AJK masjid kita lorat nak memperbeza bezakan di antara para jamaah yang hadir ke masjid pada bila bila masa?

Tidak ada perbezaan di antara sesama Islam disisi Allahu Ta'ala melainkan dari tahap keimanan dan amalan seseorang.

Hanya Ia Maha Mengetahui akan keikhlasan seseorang yang beramal?

Jangan jadi macam kes si Karim dalam kartun dibawah ini:

Diperhebatkan solat di depan orang hanya untuk menunjukkan betapa alimnya ia?

Saya percaya gambar di atas ini tak ada kena mengena dengan si Karim di atas.

Bak kata ayat lazim sahabat saya Yang Berbahagia Dato Hj Nooh Gadut, mantan Mufti Negeri Johor ~ 'Sangka baik'! Setiap kali jumpa mesti keluar perkataan2 begitu darinya! :)

Didalam masjid, kita sering berdepan dengan pelbagai karenah para jamaah.

Sumber imej : fitrahislami.files.wordpress.com

Bak kata pakcik tua Astro yang sudah tiada ' Macam macam ada!'

Kita sambung bab itu di artikel akan datang. Insya Allah.

Pesanan Mahaguru58 kepada Tok Tok Imam dan AJK Masjid atau Surau yang berkenaan :

Saf pertama tak ada 'advance booking' bagi mana mana jamaah VVIP atau VIP! Didalam ajaran Islam dan Sunnah Rasulullah Sallalahu Alaihi Wassallam, kita pakai sistem ' First come ; first served!'

Harap jangan dok buat lagi!

Wabillahi Taufik Wal Hidayah!

Dato Seri Hj Jamil Khir cerita pasai rumah dia pula...Jom dengaq!

2012-01-12T21:27:00.000+08:00

YB Dato Seri Jamil Khir berucap tentang Kenyataan Mufti WP isu zakat

2012-01-12T17:25:00.000+08:00

Mufti Wilayah Persekutuan keluar kenyataan rasmi tentang isu duit zakat

2012-01-12T00:44:00.000+08:00

KENYATAAN MEDIA

PENJELASAN MENGENAI ISU PENYALAHGUNAAN WANG ZAKAT OLEH MAJLIS AGAMA ISLAM WILAYAH PERSEKUTUAN (MAIWP)

Sahibus Samahah Datuk Haji Wan Zahidi bin Wan Teh
MUFTI WILAYAH PERSEKUTUAN

Beberapa media baru baru ini telah melapurkan mengenai penyalahgunaan wang zakat oleh Majlis Agama Islam Wilayah Persekutuan (MAIWP) berkaitan dengan pembayaran kos guaman.

Memandangkan isu ini mempunyai kaitan dengan tugas saya sebagai Mufti Wilayah Persekutuan, maka suka dijelaskan berikut ini kedudukan isu yang ditimbulkan itu.

2. Jawatankuasa Perundingan Hukum Syarak Wilayah Persekutuan (JPHSWP) dalam mesyuarat khas yang di-adakan pada 3hb September 2000 bagi membincangkan Anggaran Belanjawan MAIWP 2010, telah meluluskan sebanyak RM205,000.00 untuk perbelanjaan undang-undang dibawah asnaf fisabilillah.

3. Terdapat beberapa faktor mengapa peruntukan ini perlu diwujudkan, antaranya :-

a) Akta Pentadbiran Undang-Undang Islam (Wilayah-Wilayah Persekutuan) 1993 (Akta 55) dalam Bahagian II Perkara 5 (@) menyatakan :

"Majlis boleh mendakwa dan didakwa dengan nama perbadanannya"

b) Dalam melaksanakan tanggungjawabnya, terdapat keadaan di mana Majlis terpaksa mendapatan keputusan Mahkamah seperti didalam kes tuntutan jenazah Mualaf yang dituntut oleh keluarganya yang bukan Islam.

4. Mengenai perletakan perbelanjaan undang-undang dibawah asnaf fisabilillah, JPHSWP menerima pakai pendapat ulama yang mentafsirkan asnaf fisabilillah dengan tafsiran yang lebih luas daripada perbelanjaan untuk perang jihad semata-mata. Antara mereka ialah Imam Al-Fakhrul Razi dalam kitab tafsirnya dan Sheikh Rasyid Rida dalam tafsir Al-Manar. Menurut Sheikh Rasyid Rida," pendapat yang benar mengenai maksud fisabilillah di-sini ialah segala yang menyentuh kepentingan umat Islam dalam menegakkan urusan agama dan pemerintahan".

5. Berasaskan keterangan-keterangan di atas, adalah ditegaskan disini bahawa penggunaan wang zakat untuk kos guaman dalam kes-kes yang berkaitan dengan Majlis Agama Islam Wilayah Persekutuan adalah mengikut hukum syarak dan selaras dengan undang-undang yang berkuatkuasa di Wilayah-Wilayah Persekutuan. Oleh yang demikian, saya berpendapat tidak terdapat penyalahgunaan dalam isu yang dibangkitkan itu.

DATUK HAJI WAN ZAHIDI BIN WAN TEH

MUFTI WILAYAH PERSEKUTUAN.

__________________________________________________________________________________

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

Saudara saudari Muslimin na wal Muslimat sekelian.

Saya baru saja bercakap dengan Yang Berbahagia Sahibus Samahah Datuk Haji Wan Zahidi, Mufti Wilayah Persekutuan melalui telefon dan meminta pengesahan beliau tentang kenyataan diatas dan izin dari beliau untuk saya siarkan semula kandungan kenyataan rasmi beliau selaku Mufti yang mempunyai kuasa untuk memutuskan kedudukan perkara ini.

Alhamdulillah, beliau izinkan dan meminta saya menyiarkan demi menjelaskan tentang salahfaham kes menggunakan dana zakat untuk kos guaman.

Saudara saudari Ikhwanul Muslimin na wal Muslimat sekelian.

Cuba kita teliti semula akan kedudukan kes tuntutan qazaf oleh Anwar Ibrahim terhadap Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan yang mengadu telah diliwat oleh tertuduh.

Bilamana Mahkamah Tinggi Syariah Kuala Lumpur membenarkan bantahan Datuk Seri Jamil Khir terhadap tuntutan qazaf Anwar Ibrahim itu mungkin di atas sebab mangsa liwat berkenaan @ Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan telah membuat laporan polis tentang kes itu dan di ikuti pula dengan perbicaraan di Mahkamah Sivil, manakala disebelah pihak Mahkamah Syariah tidak ada pula fail yang dibuka berhubung kes berkenaan?

Lantas Anwar Ibrahim telah bertindak menyaman ketiga responden berkenaan yakni YB Senator Mejar Jeneral (Bersara) Dato Seri Haji Jamil Khir Baharom selaku Menteri (Agama) di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Ketua Jabatan Pendakwaan JAWI @ Jabatan Agama Wilayah Persekutuan Shamsuddin Hussein dan Pengarah JAWI @ Datuk Che Mat Che Ali kerana menolak tuntutan qazafnya itu.

Pengarah JAWI Datuk Che Mat Che Ali

Jelas disini bahawa Anwar menyaman ketiga responden di atas kapasiti mereka sebagai pegawai pegawai Jabatan Agama Kerajaan dan bukan saman keatas diri mereka sebagai individu.

Makanya diri ketiga pegawai kerajaan diatas adalah termasuk didalam klasifikasi yang dijelaskan Datuk Mufti Wilayah Persekutuan sebagai asnaf fisabilillah.

Menurut maklumbalas yang saya terima dari pihak dalaman kerajaan, ada unsur sabotaj ke atas nama baik ketiga pegawai agama kerajaan kita ini oleh pihak yang mahu mencemarkan reputasi mereka kerna mahu berebut kedudukan.

Makanya tuan puan semak lah semula akan siapakah dia yang bertanggungjawab mengeluarkan kenyataan di Parlimen bilamana di ajukan soalan oleh pihak pembangkang tentang isu pembayaran kos guaman membela pegawai pegawai kerajaan yang di saman Anwar itu?

Senator Dato Dr. Mashitah Ibrahim
Timbalan Menteri (Agama)

Pihak ini juga yang terlibat pernah memperlecehkan hukum Hudud Allah semasa zaman 'Islam Hadhari' yang dipelopori mantan Perdana Menteri ke5 iaitu zaman Imam Hadhari Tun Abdullah Badawi.

Cuba tonton semula video berkenaan:

Kemelut ini semua bermula dari pengakuan Timbalan Menteri (Agama) Senator Datuk Dr.Mashitah yang dilaporkan disini bahawa MAIWP tidak mempunyai akaun untuk membayar kos guaman Tetuan Zainul Rijal Talha & Amir yang membela ketiga pegawai agama kerajaan bilamana disaman Anwar.

Datuk Haji Zainul Rijal

Apakah Timbalan Menteri (Agama) tidak sedar akan kedudukan ketiga responden didalam kes saman Anwar terhadap mereka sebagai tergolong didalam asnaf fisabilillah seperti dinyatakan Datuk Mufti Wilayah Persekutuan di atas?

Apakah tidak ada usaha di pihak Timbalan Menteri berkenaan untuk memeriksa dan memastikan akan kedudukan pegawai pegawai agama yang bertugas demi Allah dan Rasul didalam membela nasib umat Islam bila kes kes jenayah liwat dan sebagainya ini dikendalikan mereka?

Bukankah ada kemungkinan diri Timbalan Menteri itu sendiri akan turut disaman oleh pihak pihak seperti Anwar Ibrahim jika beliau yang secara kebetulan mengendalikan urusan urusan perundangan seperti yang dihadapi ketiga responden berkenaan?

Saya tidak mahu mengulas lebih lanjut lagi tentang kenapa berlaku perbezaan pendapat atau salah faham tentang kedudukan pegawai pegawai agama kerajaan menurut klasifikasi asnaf fisabilillah dan tentang apa pula sebabnya Timbalan Menteri berkenaan boleh tidak tahu tentang peruntukan yang dibenarkan oleh keputusan Jawatankuasa Perundingan Hukum Syarak Wilayah Persekutuan (JPHSWP) didalam perenggan 2 di atas?

Apakah ada agenda tersembunyi pihak terbabit kerana tidak mendapatkan kepastian kedudukan perkara dari Datuk Mufti WP terlebih dahulu sebelum melatah menjawab soalan pembangkang di Parlimen didalam bulan Jun 2011 yang lepas?

Wallahu'alam bissawab.

Biarlah ini menjadi tauladan kepada mana mana pegawai kerajaan yang lain bahawa adalah menjadi suatu kewajipan keatas diri mereka untuk memastikan akan kedudukan sesuatu perkara dengan menghubungi pihak pihak berkuasa yang berkenaan sebelum menjawab soalan soalan spontan dari pihak pembangkang.

Sudah memang itulah kerja pembangkang. Untuk mencari kesalahan atau kekhilafan pihak kerajaan dan mengeksploitasikan sesuatu isu itu untuk menguntungkan pihak mereka.

Yang patut disoalkan adalah kenapa tidak ada 'esprit de corps' dikalangan para pegawai pegawai kerajaan didalam menghadapi asakan asakan pembangkang?

Apakah ada 'cah keting' dikalangan mereka yang kononnya sama se kementerian atau sejabatan walaupun pada namanya berlebelkan 'agama'?

Semua ini menunjukkan bahawa tidak ada jalinan setiakawan dikalangan mereka yang kononnya bertugas demi agama, bangsa dan nusa.

Biarlah penjelasan oleh Datuk Mufti Wilayah Persekutuan menjadi noktah kepada apa apa perang dingin sesama pegawai pegawai yang berkenaan dan kita semua kembali kepada usaha meningkatkan prestasi masing masing demi memajukan nasib umat Islam dan sesama warganegara didalam tanahair kita ini. Insya Allah.

Saya ingin menganjurkan kepada semua pegawai kerajaan yang terlibat agar senantiasa berusaha menjalinkan ikatan setiakawan dan bermuzakarah selalu demi memastikan kejayaan bersama dan tidak lah lorat nak sabo sana sabo sini.

Dunia ini sementara saja. Akhirat jua yang kekal abadi.

Beringat ingatlah sebelum nak kencingkan sesama pegawai setugasan. Silap haribulan terpercik kat muka sendiri. Kan susah nanti?

Sekadar memperingatkan sesama Muslim demi Allah dan Rasul!

Biarlah kita semua bersatu merapatkan saff bukan bercakar sesama sendiri!

Nigerian Newspaper laments its country's students fate in Malaysia!

2012-01-09T16:50:00.003+08:00

The recent crackdown by Malaysian Immigration and Royal Malaysian Police on the Nigerians involved in online scams and other crimes committed by them which inadvertently also resulted in quite a number of Nigerian students hauled in together with the culprits!

This has resulted in an uproar by those who are genuine students writing to their country's newspaper The Nation to share their predicament in getting tarnished together with those fellow Nigerians who are the real crooks!

Here is the full report :

Our raw deal in the hands of Malaysian Police, by Nigerian students

By Gbenga Aderanti 17/12/2011 00:00:00

Font size:

Some Malaysian policemen

They grumble almost on a daily basis after suffering one form of humiliation or the other. Yet the majority of them find it extremely difficult to leave the hostile environment in Malaysia and head back home. That is the sad story of many Nigerians who are resident in Malaysia , particularly the students who are undergoing studies in various fields.

The number of Nigerian youths in Malaysia is estimated at about 4,000. This, of course, is unofficial, as many of them had entered the country illegally. But each time the Malaysian Police strike, both the saints and the sinners suffer.

The recent clamp down on Nigerians in the far east country was not only painful but humiliating. Neither the host schools nor the Nigerian High Commission in Malaysia could do anything to help the situation. The operation, codenamed ‘OPS TIONG’, involved many security agencies in Malaysia. It lasted for more than five hours from dusk to dawn. It was a raid Nigerian students in the country would not forget in a hurry. No fewer than 12 of them spent 11 torturous days in the Malaysian cell.

For one of the detained students, Nkem Okpa Obaji, who arrived the country in 2007, and currently a research student at the Institute of Technology Management of the Universiti Teknologi, Malaysia, life could not be more cruel. He was arrested in his sitting room around 11.35 pm on November 21, while he was watching a football match. It was a baptism of fire.

According to Obaji, he had never imagined that he could be subjected to such an inhuman treatment in his entire life. By the time it dawned on him that he would be sleeping in the cell, his psyche was dealt a big blow. He said it was the first time he would be arrested by the Police.

Obaji, who is billed to complete his studies in Malaysia in 2014, said he informed the Nigerian High Commission in Malaysia that some Nigerians, including himself, had been arrested, but he was disappointed with the response he got.

He said: “The first day we were put in cell, I called the High Commission. I told them that there was a massive arrest of Nigerians, including myself, the previous night. But the respondent told me that the High Commission could not do anything unless the Police informed them.”

While Obaji would not confirm or deny that some Nigerians are engaged in shady deals in the Asian country, he believes that the Police in the country had not been fair to Africans, especially Nigerians. “When policemen came to our apartment, they told us that the locals complained that some Africans were disturbing their neighbourhood and that was why they came. I feel they are unfair to Africans in general and Nigerians in particular. Also, majority of the locals don’t like Nigerians,” he said.

The university was said to have pledged to take up the matter with the security agency that arrested the students. In the report he was asked to submit to the university on the incident, a copy of which was made available to The Nation, Obaji wrote: “A team of policemen invaded our apartment at Ampang shortly after we finished watching the Indonesia – Malaysia football match of the South East Asia (SEA) 2011 Games.

“They searched the three rooms of our flat and the sitting room but did not find anything incriminating. They told us that they came because they received reports from the locals that some Africans living within the Condominium were disturbing.

“We told them that we were all students, but they queried, ‘If you are students, why do you have refrigerators in every room and how come you have 27 inches flat screen television?’ They also asked why almost everybody had laptop computers.

“Meanwhile, when they came in, there were two laptop computers in use. One of my flat mates was using his own in the sitting room where he was googling a particular topic relating to his school examination, which he was supposed to take at 10 am the next day, which he definitely missed as a result of our incarceration.

“They demanded for our International passports in order to determine the validity of our visas. These we presented to them and they verified their authenticity through phone calls to the Immigration Headquarters. They eventually confirmed that our passports were valid.

“While the verification was still going on, local journalists bumped into the house and started covering the incident. When we understood some of the Malay words (e.g. tipu and menipu) used by the journalists during the coverage, we sharply resisted the coverage and drew the attention of the police team. Immediately, the journalists stopped the coverage and went outside the door.

“After this, the team wanted to check all our laptop computers in the house, but suddenly, another police officer, who claimed to be their boss, came in and told them that all of us would be going to the station where they would check our laptops, visas and urine, and that if no problem was found, we would immediately be released. So, they brought out handcuffs and chained all of us together. The whole event depicted the slave trade era.

“As we were about to leave the front door of our flat, cameramen started taking pictures and recording us, which we protested against. Unfortunately for us, we were already in chains and we couldn’t do much.

“When we got downstairs, we found that other Africans were already inside their vehicles. When they found that the vehicles would not be enough for all of us, they called for the Black Maria. When the Black Maria came, they transferred all of us into it and zoomed off in a convoy to a location we all thought to be Bukit Aman Police Headquarters. But in the morning, we were told that the place was Police Training School at Jalan Semarak opposite UTM City Campus, KL.

“When we got to the training school, they just dumped us on the cold floor of the hall with the handcuffs still on all of us and started doing our documentation, which lasted up till 10 am the next day. After that, they took us back to Ampang Jaya Police Station. In the course of the documentation, they called us one by one and hung a tag around our neck with Bukit Aman inscription and assigned a number which ended with “/2011”. They asked each of us in turn to hold the tag while they took our pictures both in Portrait and landscape formats.

“At the Training School, we saw other Africans arrested who were from other parts of KL which include among others, Cheras, Kepong, Pandah Indah, Sentul.

“When we arrived at the Ampang Jaya Police Station, they removed the handcuffs and registered our personal belongings like phones, wallets, belts and shoes. After that, they put us in the cell.

“It the cell, on the first and second days, the tap flowed. But after the second day, there was no more water. After every meal, they gave some inmates who were lucky to get a small quantity of water in a water proof plastic bag to flush the toilet and clean up.

“They served us little quantity of rice every day. In some cases, especially in the morning, one slice of bread and a sachet of local flavoured drinks, which contains a lot of sugar, which is against what most of us need in our system. All through our incarceration, they didn’t give us even a drop of drinking water.

“On Monday November 28, 2011, they brought us to the investigation office where we met for the first time the police officer in charge of the case. She called us one after the other to provide our basic information like name, nationality, passport number, name of school, family background, etc. After that, they took us back into the cell.

“On Wednesday November 30, 2011 , she called us again to the investigation room and checked our passports/visas and informed us that she would be going to Putrajaya for the verification of our visas and passports.

“On Thursday December 1, 2011, around 6 pm, they called us to meet the Investigation Officer in the investigation room. At this time, she told us that we had been released but that our registered belongings, including our mobile phones, wallets and house keys would be collected the next day as the office where our belongings were had closed for the day.

“On Friday December 2, 2011 , around 9.am, we went to the Ampang Jaya Police Station and collected our registered belongings. On the same Friday December 2, 2011, around 6.pm, we went to the Bukit Indah Police Station to pick our laptop computers.”

Obaji said he was still trying to get back to his normal mental state, which he said was “bruised as a result of the incarceration. In my wildest dream, I never expected myself to be in that kind of situation.”

Another student, Wole, (surname withheld), expressed fear over the hostile attitude to blacks and Nigerians in particular. According him, while the raid was going on, the security agencies involved invited journalists from the print and electronic media to record the proceedings.

“My colleagues were handcuffed and hurled into a Black Maria like common criminals. These are students with valid papers. Despite having valid visas, some were kept in police net for 10 days before they were released,” he said.

Wole, who is currently a Ph.D. student in one of the leading universities, was miffed over the way the whole matter was handled by the High Commission. He said things could have been better if the High Commission had acted promptly. “Our embassy refused to help these people despite the fact that those who were arrested registered with the embassy. Malaysian security agents are out to tarnish the image of Nigerians in Malaysia,” he added.

All efforts made by one of the universities to vouch for one of the students were said to have been rebuffed by the Police.

Wole said the authorities at the Universiti Teknologi , Malaysia , called the Police but they refused to entertain their plea. “Universiti Teknologi, Malaysia , is ranked No.1 in Malaysia. There, you see many Nigerians,” said Wole.

Wole is constantly living in fear because Malaysian security agents would come down on them if their names and photographs are published in the newspapers.

As if to confirm the alleged contempt the Malaysian authorities have for Nigerians, the security agents allegedly refused to apologise to the unjustly detained Nigerians, even when they did not find anything incriminating on them.

A new twist was added to the arrest saga when Orugo, a Ph.D. graduate who had been at the forefront of the battle for the release of the detained students was arrested a few day after the 12 detained Nigerians were released. Orugo, who got a very outstanding award for his performance in the Ph.D. class, was himself allegedly detained for five days. It took the intervention of his lawyer to get him off the hook of the Malaysian security agents. As a measure of appreciation of his brilliant performance, The Nation gathered that Orugo has been engaged to lecture at the Universiti Kebangsaan.

However, some sources said while the Malaysian security agents should be blamed for allegedly irrational arrests, the attitude of some Nigerians leaves much to be desired. Early this month, a 32-year-old Nigerian, whom the Malaysian Police accused of dealing in illegal drugs, was shot dead on his hospital bed. According to a report, the Malaysian Police said they did so in self-defence because the Nigerian allegedly ran amok and overpowered a policeman.

In October 2007, two Nigerian students were found dead in their rooms. The two were business information systems freshmen. Though described as brilliant by the authorities of the school, some argued that they were probably killed by an overdose of drugs.

Some Nigerians in Malaysia are believed to sometimes make life difficult for those with genuine intentions. A Nigerian was once reported to have connived with his Malaysian girlfriend to fake her (girlfriend’s) kidnap. According to the report, the Malaysian lady and her Nigerian boyfriend were arrested by security agents for an alleged attempt to get a ransom of US$500,000 (N76, 124,988) from her father.

The cry of persecution by some Nigerians also attracted condemnation from a student, Paul (not real name), who is currently undergoing a Ph.D. programme in Malaysia . He was a lecturer in one of the private universities in Nigeria before he left for Malaysia. Paul disagreed with the arrested students. According to him, “Malaysians are good to us. Some of these Nigerians constitute a nuisance here. It is so bad that it is difficult to greet your fellow Nigerians, even if they have their papers. They actually need to arrest those Nigerians,” he submitted.

When this reporter told him that the arrested people have valid papers, he said curtly: “If they have their papers, they (Police) will never do that to them. Ask them what they are doing in Malaysia.”

He said he would probably do worse than the Police if he were a part of the system. “I would have probably done worse. I just hate some of these Nigerians. They make life difficult for us, doing all manner of rubbish,” he said.

Meanwhile, in spite of the negative perception, some of the students are doing quite well. For example, in October, this year, 51 Nigerians bagged Ph.D, while 36 successfully completed their Master’s degree. One of them, Khadija Adedoyin Opatokun, who graduated with M.Ed in Education Administration, earned the best Master’s Student Award of the institute of education in one of the universities.

A message was sent to both the Nigerian High Commission in Malaysia and the Malaysian High Commission in Nigeria for their official comments on the allegedly indiscriminate arrest of the Nigerian students, but at the time of filing this report, there had not been any response from either of them.

Recently an Australian TV station sent their team to Kuala Lumpur and together with the help of the Royal Malaysian Police set up a sting operation to nab a few Nigerians who scammed Australian women out of their entire life savings pretending to be white men on a dating site. Here are their photo:

I blogged about it here. Even a Ghanaian newspaper reported on it here.

The students complain to their newspaper that when they asked their Nigerian High Commission based here in Kuala Lumpur for help and assistance, their Nigerian High Commissioner refused to help them.

Here is an excerpt of one of the comments sent to the newspaper:

Peteabraham73

WITH GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT AND SHAME,I CALL ON THE MAIN THREE ARMS OF GOVERNMENT IN NIGERIA NAMELY,THE SENATE,PRESIDENCY AND HOUSE OF REPS TO ABOLISH,ERASE,DELETE AND WIPE OUT THE EMBASSY OF NIGERIA ESPECIALLY IN MALAYSIA AND THAILAND IN ORDER TO CUT DOWN EXPENDITURE ON THE PART OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SINCE THIS KIND OF INSTITUTIONS ARE ONLY MEANT FOR SIPHONING MONEY AND PLEASING SOME BASTARDS IN THE NAME OF DIPLOMATIC APPOINTMENTS.THESE EMBASSY OFFICIALS ARE THE MOST CORRUPT ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD,THEY PUSH FOR THE KILLING AND INCARCERATION OF THEIR OWN CITIZENS WHILE THEY CLUB AND GALLIVANT AROUND LIKE HE GOATS WITH DIFFERENT KIND OF WOMEN.THE AMBASSADOR AND CONSULAR IN MALAYSIA ARE THE WORST OF ALL AND MUST BE RECALLED OR FACE MASSIVE PROTEST WHICH MAY COST THEIR LIVES !

Here is a response from a Nigerian living in Malaysia to the comment above :

Africanmalay

I agree with you,,i once meet the Nigerian Ambassador here in a night club..what he was doing there with his Philippinos girl friend is what i can't tell,,Though he was in a disguise but i knew him too well to be fooled.I have the name of the club and i managed to some pictures,,though it was dark but i still got them...he is a very big disappointment...

Click here to read all the comments which tell us all about their frustrations.

All I can say is that as Malaysians, usually we do not discriminate against anyone as long as they do not give us problems.

There are in fact millions of foreigners living and studying or working in Malaysia as we speak.

Yet, the increasing number of cases where the Nigerians who are coming in to this country have been involved in scams and drug related crimes have forced our Malaysian authorities to take them into account and go after them.

Legitimate students or expats from Nigeria are inadvertently caught along in the dragnet for the scammers and crooks pretend to be the same and naturally how would the Malaysian police or immigration be able to differentiate between them?

Hence, the sad reality that those who are here in Malaysia purely to study are saddled with being exposed to such raids.

The Malaysian Police and Immigration have no choice but to catch the Nigerian scammers and drug dealers one way or another for we do not want to see our country be a base for such illegal activities.

We have enough problems of our own and do not wish to see these Nigerian criminals add to our nation's woes.

The Nigerian High Commission should work together with Malaysian authorities in stemming the influx of these crooks or the situation will definitely turn worse soon.

Both Malaysia and Nigeria must work harder to stop these crooks destroying lives worldwide!

At the same time, I do feel sorry and sympathize with the genuine Nigerian students who are caught in this sorry situation where because of a growing number of their countrymen making Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia their crime base, they are unfortunately dragged along into the repercussions of law enforcement by my nation's law and security agencies.

The sooner the Nigerian and Malaysian authorities get to arrest and take action against the scammers and drug dealers, the better it will be for those Nigerian bonafide students who have come here to study.

Till then, they just have to be careful not to get caught in between.

Muslim Heritage and the 1001 Inventions from the Golden Age of Islam.

2012-01-09T05:10:00.001+08:00

There are just so many inventions by Muslim geniuses of the past that have come to be the catalyst for many improvements to be made in the form of countless advancements in the various fields of science, technology, engineering, etc in our modern world today.

From pioneering advanced systems of mechanical engineering that brought about revolutions in the way hydraulic pumps and other useful innovations have come to be, medical science, astronomy, aeronautics, photography that led to the many innovative forms of film making, multimedia, etc, time keeping and countless other important aspects of living life in a world full of innovations that we all owe to the masters of the Golden Age of Islamic Civilization! Some of them are:

Sultan Mirza Ulugh Beg- Astronomer, Mathematician

Al-Jazari: Civil engineer, Ibn Al-Haytham: Scientist in a lot of fields (Anatomy, Astronomy, Engineering, Mathematics, Medicine, Ophthalmology, philosophy, physics, Psychology, Visual perception), Abbas Qasim Ibn Firnas: Inventor, Engineer, Aviator and Physician, Abu al-Qasim al-Zahrawi: Physician, Surgeon(The father of modern surgery), Chemist, Cosmetologist, and Scientist, Fatima Al-Fihri (started the first and now oldest university in the world @ The University of Al-Karaouine or Al-Qarawiyyin) and many more other brilliant contributors to our world in the field of science, technology, etc.

University of Al-Karaouine or Al-Qarawiyyin

One of my readers @ Mohamed Firdaus Shajahan alerted me to the excellent short movie above starring multi award winning British actor Sir Ben Kingsley as Al Jazari explaining about the immense contribution of Muslim geniuses such as Al Jazari and others to students on a field trip to the Library.

Followed by two short videos showing Professor Salim Al Hassani explaining about the 1001 inventions by Muslim scientists and engineers.

Salim T S Al-Hassani is an Emeritus Professor of Mechanical Engineering and currently an Honorary Professorial Fellow at the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Manchester.

University of Manchester, UK

He is Chairman of the Foundation of Science, Technology and Civilisation (FSTC),[1] founder of the academic portal www.MuslimHeritage.com;[2] and Chief Editor of the 1001 Inventions[3] touring exhibition, built as a global education initiative which includes a book,[4] award winning film[5] and teacher’s pack; and the Curriculum Enrichment company, CE4CE.[6]

I'm glad that the world finally acknowledges that instead of what the people of yore termed to generalize the period where the Western world came to live in the Dark Ages there was in the Middle East especially in Muslim lands what is heralded as the Golden Age of Islamic Civilization with inventors and masters of the various fields of science and technology plus a 1001 inventions that are depicted in the short movie above.

The modern world owes many improvements of our current life today to these ancient masters who brought about many innovative ways to make life much more easier for the people of this Earth by coming up with their many inventions and wondrous systems that have now evolved into making our life so comfortable today.

Modern day scientists and engineers are still discovering many, many important revelations from the Golden Age of Islamic Civilization and in turn reintroducing these innovations to the world.

If only the learned Muslims of today can take a hint from the brilliant Muslim scientists, engineers and ground breaking inventors of before and return to their inheritance of being the People of Knowledge and bring about a renaissance of the glorious Golden Age of Islam?

Right now, many Muslims are unfortunately wallowing in the petty quarrels amongst themselves and wasting precious time in petty disputes with one another such as what we witness taking place in this so called Muslim nation of Malaysia!

They'd do better to look for ways to improve and add values to our life instead of taking to the streets in one protest after another as if that's the only purpose of their coming into this world is for?

Live to benefit mankind for Allah loves not those who seek to harm others by actions that are detrimental to society no matter where one lives in?

In Surah Taha Chapter 20 Verse 114 in the Holy Qur'an, Allahu Ta'ala reveals:

FataAAala Allahualmaliku alhaqqu wala taAAjal bilqur-animin qabli an yuqda ilayka wahyuhu waqul rabbizidnee AAilma

Sahih International

So high [above all] is Allah , the Sovereign, the Truth. And, [O Muhammad], do not hasten with [recitation of] the Qur'an before its revelation is completed to you, and say, "My Lord, increase me in knowledge."

Seek and acquire knowledge for it is the most important asset that one needs to have in order to gain 'Ilm of Islam, Iman and taqwa towards Allah.

Seek useful and beneficial knowledge and once you have mastered it, do teach others.

Insya Allah, your life will be worth to be remembered.

Sahih International

O you who have believed, when you are told, "Space yourselves" in assemblies, then make space; Allah will make space for you. And when you are told, "Arise," then arise; Allah will raise those who have believed among you and those who were given knowledge, by degrees. And Allah is Acquainted with what you do.

Al-Jazari, 13th Century Arabic Master Inventor & Engineer

2012-01-08T09:09:00.003+08:00

I just came across these full length documentaries about Ancient Discoveries of the Eastern world which precedes Western Technology as we now know it.

This documentary in particular acknowledges the genius of Islamic inventors and master engineers such as Al Jazari and other great Islamic scientists.

It's amazing that many of our modern technologies were in fact derived from all these ancient masterpieces that came to revolutionize mankind's way of life hundreds and thousands of years ago when there were no computers or gadgets as we now so take for granted?

Abū al-'Iz Ibn Ismā'īl ibn al-Razāz al-Jazarī (1136–1206) (Arabic: أَبُو اَلْعِزِ بْنُ إسْماعِيلِ بْنُ الرِّزاز الجزري‎) was a Muslim polymath: a scholar,inventor, mechanical engineer, craftsman, artist, mathematician and astronomer from Al-Jazira, Mesopotamia, who lived during the Islamic Golden Age (Middle Ages). He is best known for writing the Kitáb fí ma'rifat al-hiyal al-handasiyya (Book of Knowledge of Ingenious Mechanical Devices) in 1206, where he described fifty mechanical devices along with instructions on how to construct them.

Source : Wikipedia

May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala bless the soul of Abū al-'Iz Ibn Ismā'īl ibn al-Razāz al-Jazarī and all other Muslim scientists, engineers and innovators for their immense contribution towards mankind's progress. Ameen.

Instead of wasting time arguing and protesting on the streets, our Malaysian academics and leaders of higher educational, scientific engineering institutions would do better to channel their energies and resources towards improving our nation's economy and invent better more useful machines and technologies which would benefit us all.

Share this video with your readers and help them understand that the Islamic world was once the originators and inventors of many instruments and technological masterpieces that we so nonchalantly use nowadays without bothering so much as to ponder as to who were their creators?

Thank you History Channel and 1001 Inventions from the Muslim Heritage for sharing these wonderful informative full length documentaries of ancient Muslim discoveries with us.

Rebellious Recalcitrants of the Malaysian Opposition

2012-01-06T11:44:00.001+08:00

Ever since Malaysia's 4th Prime Minister Tun Dr.Mahathir Mohamad sacked his 3rd Deputy, Anwar Ibrahim from office and all other official designations, Malaysia has been witnessing street protests after street protests, demonstrations and general agitations to rebel initiated by the latter, bringing about a state of unrest in this multi-ethnic, multi-faithed nation of 28 over million people.

The first two deputies of Mahathir didn't take to the streets to vent their frustrations of being robbed of their chances to be the nation's next premier after Dr.M.

They went about their ways and one of them, Tun Ghafar Baba passed away a broken hearted man after having diligently served his party UMNO and the Malaysian Government for so many years.

Allahyarham Tun Ghafar Baba was a man not known to go against the grain and he abided by the dictates of his superior without any dissension. He came from an era where the rule of law prevailed and not that many scandals came to light unlike the trend to become 'Judas Iscariots' nowadays!

Musa Hitam was also not known to stab Mahathir in his back. The closest someone came to wrest the PM's seat from Tun Dr.M was the Kelantan prince Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah in 1987.

Tan Sri Musa Hitam

Tengku Razaleigh had lost to Mahathir by just 43 votes in the UMNO party elections. Musa Hitam and Abdullah Badawi had supported Tengku Razaleigh in his bid to challenge Mahathir for the party presidency and consequently for the PM's seat.

To this date Mahathir hasn't been too chummy with the Team 'B' leaders.

Come Anwar Ibrahim, the then student leader whom Mahathir had groomed to be his protege and designated successor, the nation witnessed sort of a 'Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde' syndrome take root in the person of Anwar Ibrahim when he started getting too big for his breeches and the air was thick with his plans to derail Malaysia's then longest ruling Prime Minister.

Anwar Ibrahim was unceremoniously sacked in 1998 from being the Deputy Prime Minister and stripped from all his government official positions after found guilty by the courts for corruption and abuse of his office.

He was sentenced to serve 6 years in prison starting from 1999. In the year 2000, he was further sentenced to 9 more years in jail after being accused of having sodomized his personal driver and found guilty as well.

In 2004, the Federal Court reversed the decision for the 2nd charge and released him from prison.

After being released from prison, the vengeful Anwar started his campaign of toppling the ruling BN Federal Government and to this day, remains a thorn in the Malaysian Federal Government's side, campaigning unrelentingly to be the Malaysian PM if it is the last ever thing he does?

Malaysians are now divided between wanting to see changes in the country but not willing to trust those in Anwar's led Malaysian Opposition for fear of seeing another set of crooks come in to replace those who aren't squeaky clean so to speak?

The way things have been taking place in this country doesn't promise those of us peace loving citizens a restful future.

Instigators from the DAP-PKR and PAS Opposition parties have and are riling up impressionable young rebels from amongst the Malaysian university and college students to try and topple the ruling BN Malaysian Federal government by way of street protests ala the Middle Eastern countries such as Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, etc.

The main obstacles that these rebels face are the couldn't care less attitude of the general Malaysian public who would not take their dangled 'freedom of this and that' bait and usually such street protests would fizzle out at the very first few blasts of the Federal Reserve Units of the Royal Malaysian Police force's water cannons and swingings of their truncheons!

Most Malaysians would not be bothered to become sacrificial lambs for those who are just out to enrich themselves and feather their own personal nests in the guise of fighting for freedom, bla bla bla.

The ones that do so are usually made up of those who would be 'clueless' and don't really understand what the hell such protests are really all about in the first place?

The devilish ones calling the shots and organizing these illegal protests are usually the ones who would stand to gain when and if they really get to seize power through such irresponsible means?

The 13th GE is just around the corner but for those recalcitrants who would rather take to the streets and cause general mayhem, they just can't wait to taste power?

That is if the majority of peace loving Malaysians are so gullible and willing to stake their future on those who'd waste no time to run riot and cause irreparable damage to our nation's economy and image before the whole wide world?

All I wish for is for sanity to return to these rioting recalcitrants to stop for a while and look back at what is the result of all their disturbing of the peace and harmony of this nation?

You're not happy with the BN? No worries. Just exercise your choice and freedom to vote for whoever you want as your future leaders in the next GE!

Whoever comes into power gets to rule over us. Fair and clean.

Kelantan MB Dato Nik Aziz

Do not destroy this fledgling nation of just 55 years just because Anwar Ibrahim or even Nik Aziz for the matter wants to warm their butts in the PM's seat of power in Putrajaya.

We all are living between the 5 daily prayers and will die at any given moment by the Will of Allah.

True Muslims won't waste their time wreaking havoc in the lives of millions of peace loving fellow citizens if they really come to think of all the consequences of running this country down because of their greed and lust for temporal power here on Earth.

Think before you screw up not only your own lives but of those who are your own loved ones and fellow citizens of the Kingdoms of Malaysia.

Yes! Kingdoms.

We are the only nation on Earth with so many Kings! 9 Malay Sultans to be exact and 4 pseudo ones who get to play Governor @ Yang Di Pertua Negeri every 4 to 5 years once at whoever is the ruling Supreme King's pleasure!

:)

Another thing peculiar to Malaysia.

Now, everyone can be a 'Datuk'!

All you have to do is be able to sing song and act. You don't have to be an academy award winning superstar, either.

Just enjoy yourselves gallivanting on stage and national tv, whilst making big bucks and voila! You might just get selected to present yourself at any of those royal palaces and be honored with such a title! :)

People are calling for one such undeserving title to be revoked on account that the holder is the Chief Recalcitrant Rebel who's rumored to be wanting to be Malaysia's first ever President if it ever decides to anoint the Recalcitrant One as its Supremo Uno Leader?

Na'uzubillahiminzalik!

May Allah Forbid!

At this moment, I'm just bewildered as to what stunt the rebels are gonna pull next?

Sleeping on the road has been achieved in Kuala Kangsar.

Guitars are being strummed before the mimbars of our nation's masjids and rocker ustaz's are coming to the fore screaming their lungs out in the masjid's prayer halls under the label of new ways to reform those who'd once been the hardcore entertainers of this Bolehland and are now wishing to repent?

Rock oo!!!

What's next???

I'm just ready for anything. :)

Malaysia Boleh, ma!
