i am sooooo against all the cicakS in the world!!!!
(not forgetting the fact that it is of their species' ancestors that leaked out the secret that the Holy Prophet p.b.u.h was hiding in the Thur Cave when the enemies were hunting him down during the Hijrah period! kill them! kill them!)*mind u, i am still against violence*
i baru with full spirit and enthusiasm nak finishkan my worldview assgnmnt and now, 2 ekor cicak has ruined it!!
because of dema 2 ekor, i have to move to my bed! buat asgnmnt atas katil is a no-no..never a good idea..haih..
my study table is placed against the wall with the window. very close to the window. i semangat2 nak buat asgnmnt, dah set up my laptop n all then tetiba ada this one cicak crawling around kat tingkap tuh. tak kesah la memula sebab dia crawl2 kat luar
(but ergh...the view of it's bawah, abdomen n all; crawling around is major gr0ss) nways, i didn't do much of a good job trying to ignore it. i cant help it!!i cant stop thinking that it myte crawl2 til it reaches the side of the window then it myte jump inside!!!
and suddenly out of NOwhere came another cicak!
and they started fighting!!
and they were clinging to the side of the window's opening! and one of them JUMPED inside!!!
i knew it!!!!!!!! i knew that wud happen!!
and so now here i am muttering "shoo!! shoo!! go away! go away!!" atas katil and trying hard to shoo the 2 ekor thing away from my bed. its lepak2ing kat wall my meja..
owh! owh!! one's g0ing away from my territory!
*go! go! shooh! shooh!*
dah la kak ida n nurul pon takleh nak tulung. gelak kan orang je lebih huhu..
i think its safe for me to go back to my meja now. i dun see the cicakS anymore.
*back to my assignment dgn penuh semangat nye! caiyok!! gambate!!
p/s: i think cicak is one unique creature. it's tail will grow back if it's terputus..tak payah susah2 saintis of their species nk pikir or buat research mahal2 to clone a new tail for them if putus sebab eksiden ke, ape ke...
p/p/s: for the past few days the news are on about artists going to a club and assaulted some men and denying stuff and what nots; kuhmown lah..there's many more bigger and much more important issues to be dealt with and paid attention to in this world if not in Mesia. get over it media! and move on! go find out more abused citizens' news, family living in poverty that needs help from others and the government itself! people whose rights are violated living in this cruel world of today; those who suffers war, disasters; they're the ones that needs real attention!
i've always believed that the motive of the papers are only to sell and not to publish the truth or the real happenings in the world. is it partly because of the so-called "freedom of expresion" that's restricted and limited in Mesia? or is it because of the people themselves who are more into entertainment than the real issues?
talk about freedom of expression, this morning, my mom was ranting on the reponse given by Denmark with regard to the caricature. she was like,
i'm most angry at the fact that they had the guts and nerve to say that they're not gonna apologize to the Muslims bcoz they believe that they're practising and allowing freedom of expression!
true daat ummi!! i think the issue also involves human rights. i mean, they're insulting other people's religion! and that's like disrespect towards others! didn't they learn their manners ever since dari kindergarten lagik?? and to actually voice out their intention not wanting to apologize? hullo..to apologize, and to seek for forgiveness is always a virtue!
anyways, so now people are starting to boycott. the way i see it, i'm hoping that with this whole boycotting effort with regard to the caricature issue, people will finally begin to see and believe that the effort to boycott is effective and relevant. i mean, until now not many people encourage, practice and support the boycotting campaign against the zionist n jews with regard to the Palestine issue. i see and know many who gets all fired up in angst and rage and sympathy yadaa yadaa when it comes to talking about the Palestinians, Masjid al-Aqsa, the Zionist and stuff but they dun actually show support to the boycotting campaign. they actually dun believe that it could be an effort. it's kinda disappointing if you ask me. i'm not so good myself la
(talk about total disappointment eh)..kekadang tuh ade jugak evil voices in my head yg menggoda teringin nak buy those must-or-should-be-boycotted products.
but then again, i slalu pikir gak, are we that selfish to not even want to try to fight the temptations to buy or eat. what more when we know that we should and can help by boycotting and that the campaign is actually effective adn proven so too. how sometimes denial and selfish we can be just to fullfil our whims and desires.it is at least, the least we can do being so far away living in our comfort zone of our harmonious, peaceful, independent
(dan yg sekeluarga dengannya) country. i remember a fren once said
"it's not like we'd die without it. macam la takde alternative lain. its up to the individuals to want to sacrifice or not."tru daat. we could accept this challenge to boycott as a test from Allah jugak..how willing are we to sacrifice for others; for Islam, when the whole world turns against us..btol tak? eventho this whole boycotting effort may seem small and little in compare to people who gives cash for donation, or go to help give aid and do charity work; at least we're doing sumthing. i mean, speaking for myself, i cant go to Palestine to actually help give medical aid unlike those people Mercy
( including my cousin raudah who actually went to Acheh to give medical aid for teh Tsunami victims. i'm afraid i have to admit i am not mentally and physically prepared), i cant go around give talks to help naikkan semangat orang, or bring awareness to the public
(lacking of knowledge here) unlike ustz maszlee, Dr. Azzam and people like them who actually do those 'turun padang' job. they go give talks, meet the public, and even go to Palestine or countries dekat2 situ jugak as an effort of theirs with regard to the Save Al-aqsa business. i dun have much wealth to spare, i dun have much knowledge or skills but i do understand that as Muslims, we are obliged to help and contribute so that at least, fi yaumul qiamah, when Allah asks us on what have we done to help, we'd have at least proof and evidence to back us up that we have made contributions to the Muslim society and Islam itself. quoting Ustaz Maszlee when he gave a talk about the martyr Syeikh Ahmad Yassin,
what are we going to give as an answer when Allah asks as to what have we done to help save Palestine and Al-Aqsa? what have we contributed? Syeikh Ahmad Yassin will be able to say that he has sacrificed his soul, his life, his paralized body, days of his life being detained and spent in prisons for his courage and bravery. and what have we to say?
*the fact that it took the Zionists 3 missiles to just kill an old, paralyzed man is awe-inspiring to me. the power of a true mujahid. G0d bless him*
that was a loud knock on the door. i strongly believe that boycotting efforts are effective. i may not be able to show much proof or evidence of it's succes but at least, between man and God, He'll know that we have tried. and plus, there's Turki and Egypt as proof..
on that note, i believe Allah has His own plans
(which will always succeed and supersede every other plans of others) and reasons to allow the caricature issue come into existence on this universe of His..
i remembered someone said in one talk,
(ustz Maszlee gak kot. or was it my UNGS lecturer?) somehow these kind of humiliations or insult or anything that's against Islam, it myte be Allah's way of reminding us mankind. a reminder on so many things. like, maybe, for Muslims to remember that we should all unite? that's a big point there.
and anyways, like the September 11th incident, somehow, despite all the hardtimes and bad words given to Islam and the Muslims, it has sumhow brought a positive outcome and effect to Islam. come to think of it, when the issue on Islam n terrorism came out, more and more non-Muslims
(and of course Muslims also) are interested and curious wanting to know the truth about Islam. Books about Islam was
(and i believe still are ) selling as good as the Famous Amos' cookies!
(ohkay, fine, or better; as good as kacang rebus? owh! or Tash Aw's The Silk Harmony Factory sale in England!) EHniways.. and with that, comes the increase of numbers of reverts and people who embraces Islam after learning and understanding Islam of it's divinity and truth..
bak kata faiz,
good or bad; publicity is publicity
i'm a believer. there's always reasons behind everything that happens in life. God has made plans for His creations. for better or worse..lets all place our full faith and truth in Him for with Him alone rests success...
final words, guiding words of the martyr Imam Hassan Al-Banna
(from Mustafa Mashhur's book) praying that it will be helpful to us Muslims;
Dear brothers. believe in Allah, exalt His presence, depend and rely upon Him. fear no one but Him; stand in awe of no other than Him. Perform that which He has made obligatory and shun that which He has forbidden.
Draw near to the Quran and study it, devote yourselves to the Life of the Prophet, taking counsel from it. Be active workers rather than wranglers, for when Allah bestows His guidance on a people He inspires them to work. And people do not go astray after receiving guidance, except when they give into disputation.
Love one another, and make sure you guard your unity, for this is the secret of your strength and the support of your success.
Finally look forward to Allah's aid and His support. This opportunity will arise without doubt for Allah has said in the Qur'an,
And then the believers will rejoice with the help of Allah. He helps whom He wills and He is the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful (ArRum:4-4)
May Allah thabbit our hearts, lead us on the path of those who are good and rightly-guided and may He makes us live like the honorable and the fortunate..
that; is my prayers for all you who i call friends...
wallahu a'lam..
p/p/p/s: wah..tenkiu incik2 cicak..jauh kamu bawa saya..
