My God, Your God

a mentor once said that a blog should NOT just be about expressing your love or hate bout someone or something, memandang we're somewhat learned, we should also put our two cents on issues! :) baiklah, saya akan amik kata-kata itu sebagai cabaran!

LABELLING- nape sume benda kena dilabelkan..LIBERAL, CONSERVATIVE, IDEALIST, HARAM, HALAL (sampai satu tahap semua benda kna ade tanda halal n not subjected to food sahaja dah) N smpai rakyat pun nk dilabelkan..we're no longer MALAYSIANS, we're now 1malaysia?..apekah?(isu dalaman n racial discourse pon tak settle lg n is swept under the carpet the whole time, ade ati nk gune ONE MALAYSIA?how la like that?

time n time again i'll get numerous questions bout my stand, nasib baik penah pg advance training di legal aid centre kuala lumpur n also orientation sbb mase itu, kami disuruh wat satu sesi, where do u stand! :) promote sket.

issue utk hari ni: ALLAH

lg satu nk stress kan, MELAYU vs. ISLAM (MUSLIMS)

i read a post by a fren who wrote, acapkali if die melatah, die akan sebut, YA ALLAH n kawan Kristian die akan sebut (bile kawan Kristian die tu melatah,JESUS CHRIST)..n then she said that, since the Court had decided (High Court) that Allah is to be / can be used by everyone, so nnt yg dok sebut Jesus Christ pun akan la tersebut YA Allah.

sasha : APA ISSUE DIE?...

once i was at a book store, legal book store n betol2 dekat pintu masuk die ade pamphlets n it was about religion. macam2 n dwi bahasa..so it was interesting to me that this was free pamphlets. so i took a few n i begun to read..n dlm bm nyer it was talking bout Nabi Isa a.s. n how he has saved human kind and that we should adore Him n all..

i was shocked!i was mad!i was juvenile!! i was shocked n mad coz wut the hell, suke2 tulis pasal kristian in BM..nnt org cnfuse cane?tak semua org ISLAM tu tau nk bezakan nnt..nnt org MELAYU bace msti die igt tgh cakap sal ISLAM padahal nie tgh citer sal KRISTIAN.

this was sometime back so masih kanak2 masa tu..pikiran tak matang!

but even so, i was even MAD at myself.since when bahasa melayu tu utk melayu sahaja?just because it is written in Malay it can't be about other religion?

as i was writing this, i came across a few blogs and i guess i kinda agree with them too...so now saya torn!TAPI....

my point of view is that we should not be worried bout creating confusion and blaming others for creating it!in the 1st place if it is clear that it states bout kitab injil, pasal konsep triniti, pasal Nabi Isa a.s as the son of God, surely it is NOT about islam.

Allahuakbar, Allah Maha Besar.(surely He who knoweth best knows what is in our hearts).--> so if christians writes Anak Allah to refer to Jesus, adakah ianya bermaksud kita sbg Muslims prcaya benda tu? the sanctity of our belief tak falter just because another prefers to use Allah, mungkin lg sedap bunyi Allah berbanding God, or Lord, or Jesus.


lagi besar issue die (other than the christians wants to/must confuse muslims so they have to use Allah), IS what are we going to do bout our fellow muslims yg boleh terconfuse although terang2an Allah tertera di situ TAPI mendiskusikan ceritera kristian or other religion?

isnt that a bigger perjuangan than memekak nak cerita pasal apahal org kristian nk gune Allah utk merujuk kepada Tuhan?

there was this one post, even the christians yg worried sbb takut christians pon confuse. (kite alpa yg mgkin bertempik ni satu golongan kecil dr satu komuniti yg besar, jgn terus siap sedia dengan perdebatan yg ini membabitkan isu ISLAM vs KRISTIAN, that's too narrow minded)

mungkin ada agenda, mungkin tidak (sbb on another note, a fren and mentor also said, igt takde keje ke cina nak mengenakan melayu so they put babi in everything, igt babi tu murah ker?)...

i feel that sometimes people are soooooo insecure n ignorant that we jump at every possible point n attack the 'predator' although there is no need to do so..(survival of the fittest!)

Islam, the religion is STRONG by itself apatah lagi Allah s.w.t!

i have an a fren who is Hindu, and she melatah she says, ya Allah or sometimes even ya Rabbi.should i give her the stare and drag her to court?n when asked y she does so, she said she studied sejarah islam for STPM and she LOVED it. and doesnt that feel good?if i had gvn her the stare for 'stealing' the name of MY GOD, bukan ke da mendatangkan musibah?

ade org kate semua ni saje nk mncabar org islam?y the crude reaction?

there's another that said that we must be firm against the use of Allah for christianity sbb konsep tak sama!!in Islam Allah is THE ONE, in christianity ade konsep trinity n Jesus as son of God, so nnt org igt Allah ade son who is Jesus..(sigh!)

i say give MUSLIMS some credit!

what can easily be done to elakkan all the confusion n doubt, KDN should make the Herald or any one who wishes to do so, letak BESAR-BESAR & TERANG-TERANG, INI UNTUK AGAMA KRISTIAN etc.

DONE.

how to create peace n harmony if org brtempik jer kiter react...

lg satu, nape mereka boleh ade pamphlets free merata2 n accessible tapi kita kena tercari2 dan beli baru dapat info psal Islam...renung2kan..

i end with this:
Al-Baqara
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Alif. Lam. Mim. (1) This is the Scripture whereof there is no doubt, a guidance unto those who ward off (evil). (2) Who believe in the Unseen, and establish worship, and spend of that We have bestowed upon them; (3) And who believe in that which is revealed unto thee (Muhammad) and that which was revealed before thee, and are certain of the Hereafter. (4) These depend on guidance from their Lord. These are the successful.

and as for the unbelievers:
(5) As for the Disbelievers, Whether thou warn them or thou warn them not it is all one for them; they believe not. (6) Allah hath sealed their hearing and their hearts, and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be an awful doom.

so:
it all berbalik kpd kita. we believe in Allah and He will give us guidance. those who do not, even if they use the term Allah, their hearts will be closed.

AND

clearly it does not mean, we are associating Allah with anything else other than having utmost believe n piety upon HIM, ALLAHUAKBAR.

7.1.2010 - came across this blog --> http://pukullima.blogspot.com/2010/01/angkong-saya-bukan-angkong-anda.html

so i guess, if i seem to be heading two cabang in what i was saying earlier..i guess where i was heading was more towards look at the bigger picture!there are more bigger and pressing issues and we shud NOT appear to be too defensive!
