#MH370: PAHITNYA SEBUAH REALITI

Saya agak terkilan dengan beberapa tohmahan yang dibuat oleh segelintir pemikir media sosial apatah lagi dari kalangan bekas kaki tangan kerajaan. Pada hemat mereka apa jua yang dilakukan oleh pihak kerajaan berhubung isu Kehilangan Pesawat MH 370 adalah tidak betul, semuanya salah, unacceptable, wrong procedure dan berbagai teori yang diberikan..antara yang nyata sebagaimana ditulis dalam FreeMalaysiaToday.. Jadi apakah semua ini, saya teringat akan sebuah kata-kata "When you are pointing one finger towards another..there are three more pointing towards you"..

Saya tidak tahu bagaimana blogger NegaraPakatanRakyat menerusi artikelnya bertajuk Trajedi MH 370 Satu Konspirasi UMNO boleh mengeluarkan teori sedemikian dan adakah beliau waras pada ketika itu..Subhanallah..Dia ni dah gila agaknya, saya tahu saya hanyalah blogger picisan kalau berbanding beliau..akan tetapi saya rasa dari sudut akal..saya mungkin lebih baik berbanding beliau. Kenapa kita sering melontarkan syak wasangka yang ada kalanya menjadi satu fitnah besar kepada pihak kerajaan. Seburuk-buruk kerajaan Malaysia..setidak-tidaknya kita masih berada dalam keadaan aman, dalam kita mengharungi kesedihan dek kehilangan MH 370, lihat berapa buah negara datang menghulurkan bantuan..andaikata Malaysia dan kerajaannya bagai dikata Pakatan Pembankang..sahih tidak akan wujud negara luar yang akan membantu. 

Video di atas dikatakan rakaman oleh salah sebuah kapal yang terbabit dalam aktiviti SAR di Koridor Selatan. Mereka semua yang terbabit disahkan sedang melalui ribut taufan..persoalan saya, tidakkan kita terfikir untuk mendoakan keselamatan mereka? Tidakkah kita terfikir akan kesusahan mereka? Justeru, lihatlah dari sudut positif.

Itulah puncanya kerajaan Malaysia sering menghulurkan bantuan kepada negara-negara luar apabila mereka ditimpa musibah..itulah tanda prihatin kerajaan dan kini sebagai balasan mereka terhadap budi baik Malaysia. Tidak dinafikan memang pahit untuk kita semua menerima sebuah realiti, tapi cuba kita renung dari sudut positif..sepanjang tempoh kehilangan pesawat tersebut, pelbagai aset ketenteraan, separa ketenteraan telah dikerah oleh pihak kerajaan untuk aktiviti mencari dan menyelamat. Antara muatan yang saya perolehi ialah menerusi TV3..malah kalau kita lihat di dalam Youtube banyak lagi, begitu juga di dada-dada akhbar..Tidakkah ianya satu bukti akan keperihatinan kerajaan? 

#MH 370: HIKMAH DISEBALIK INSIDEN

Sedari awal saya ingin menulis artikel berhubung insiden ini. Walau bagaimanapun wujud satu 'instinct' di lubuk hati agar mendiamkan diri terlebih dahulu. Kenapa? Kerana saya tidak mahu teori yang dikemukakan akan menjadi satu fitnah dan dispekulasikan oleh insan-insan lain yang sama kerdil dengan saya.

Menerusi penulisan ini saya tidak berhajat untuk merungkaikan kemelut yang wujud dalam pencarian MH 370. Saya ingin lihat dari sudut yang berbeza...apakah sudut yang ingin saya ketengahkan...jom kita lihat gambar-gambar yang dipetik......

Melihat kepada respon dan gambar di atas, apa yang saya ingin ketengahkan ialah KESATUAN yang wujud di dalam hati dan sanubari umat manusia. Walau apa bentuk kepercayaan mereka dan kaedah perlaksanaan sesebuah ibadah, apa yang jelas kesemuanya menadah tangan kehadrat Ilahi..jelaslah bahawa tidak ada satu kuasa yang lebih besar melainkan kuasa Allah Subhanahuwataala. Selain itu insiden ini cukup untuk membuktikan bahawa manusia mampu bersatu dan menuju satu wawasan yang sama sekiranya ada usaha kearah tersebut.

#KUASA ALLAH - SALINAN AL QURAN TERPELIHARA DALAM INSIDEN KEBAKARAN

SubhanAllah

Apa yang ingin saya paparkan mungkin bukan satu cerita baru..namun apa yang ingin saya ketengahkan ialah kekuasaan Allah Subhanahuwataala..Lihatkan kekuasaan Nya..Subhanallah, salinan Al-Quran tetap dalam keadaan terpelihara dalam kereta yang hangus terbakar di wilayah Jazan, selatan Arab Saudi."Pemandu itu berkata, kereta itu adalah milik ayahnya yang selalu menyimpan salinan Al-Quran di dalamnya," kata seorang saksi, harian Emirates melaporkan.Pengakuan dari pemiliknya menurut harian Saudi, dia sedang memandu keretanya di wilayah selatan Jazan, Saudi dan secara tiba-tiba kereta terbakar sehingga memaksa dia menyelamatkan diri dengan melompat keluar dari keretanya.Beberapa saksi memeriksa pemandu tersebut dan keadaan keretanya, mereka menjumpai salinan Al-Quran satu-satunya barang yang tetap terpelihara dalam kereta yang hangus terbakar."Ketika saya melihat ke dalam kereta yang hangus tersebut, saya terkejut melihat semuanya hancur dan hangus kecuali salinan Al-Quran yang masih utuh," katanya dipetik blog Detik Islam."Saya memutuskan untuk mendokumentasikan keajaiban ini dengan telefon bimbit saya."Al-Quran adalah wahyu dari Allah, Pencipta alam semesta dan dunia beserta isinya.

#KALIMAH ALLAH - PERHAPS THIS IS THE BEST ANSWER - PART 2

Among the signs He has provided are through revelations (wahy). Major religions such as Islam, Christianity and Hinduism, to name a few, have their own scriptures, believed to be the words of God (or at least the words that speak on behalf of God). For instance, Islam with the Al-Quran and the Christianity with the Bible (Old and New Testaments). Common sense will tell us easily, that the most important aspect of a religion is its concept of God.

Hence, while all above religions believe in God/gods, it is now necessary to provide a set of criteria or yardstick taught in each religion, to prove who is and who is not God. The most reliable source for this is definitely the scriptures of each religion. As I am going to represent my beloved deen, Islam, I will explain the concept of God in Islam, and in doing so, will make fine comparisons between Allah as God with the God believed by the Christians, Jesus Christ being one of them (so that we can test how the criteria of God works).

However, as mentioned earlier, I will firstly speak in brief about the existence of Quran itself as a proof that Allah is the God, One and Only. This is a very simple argument. Firstly, just to get things clear here, Al-Quran is not the words of Prophet Muhammad SAW, but are the EXACT words of Allah SWT (revealed through him to the whole mankind). Insya Allah (God willing), I will elaborate more on this in the other upcoming episode, but suffice to say now, that the words of Muhammad SAW, is called ahadith (plural of hadith) instead.

Now, going back to the argument, Al-Quran has mentioned explicitly that it was revealed by Allah SWT and Allah will protect it until the end of time. Now, imagine this. If all religions were to reach a global consensus, that today we shall burn and destroy all the scriptures and textual documents of religions (Quran, Bible, Veda etc.) including those on the net without any trace or backup copy whatsoever, guess what will happen?

Within only few days, only the Quran will come back to its absolute original form, with no alteration at all, not even an alphabet! And why is this? Because Al-Quran (which is in Arabic language) is the only book memorized in totality by many Muslims worldwide! We have children as young as 5 years old (if not younger) who memorizes the Quran from cover to cover, and in addition to that, many of them don't even speak (or understand) Arabic language!

This is a guarantee from Allah (in Surah Al-Hijr, aayat no.9) that the preservation of Quran will last! It has been more than 14 hundred years now, yet it has not been altered, not in the slightest!

(The case for Bible is significantly different, because even the Bible scholars would agree that not only Bible has gone through so many changes (addition and deletion) here and there throughout the course of its long history, in fact now there are so many different versions of Bible!)

The fact that Al-Quran explicitly mentions Allah as the One and only true God, and the fact that its preservation is impossible without permission (and work) of God, we have now come to the end of our first premise, that is, Al-Quran through its existence is a proof that Allah is the God. Now, this last point may be the most interesting part to analyse together. In the Quran, the 112th chapter is called Suratul Al-Ikhlas.

It is one of the shortest Surah in it, nevertheless carries huge weight and significance when it comes  to the concept of God in Islam. In fact we shall now analyse the 4 criteria of God it outlines from its short yet eloquent four verses. The verses explain that Allah is the God, and then beautifully continue with the attributes of Allah as God (hence the criteria of God in Islam) which is fulfilled by only Allah and none others.

For comparison, now let's take Jesus Christ and put him on test (whether he fulfills the criteria to be God). Before I continue though, it's necessary to mention here that  Jesus Christ (in Arabic, Isa) is regarded as a great prophet by us Muslims. This comparison is in no way attempting to condemn him. In reality (for the Muslims), elevating him as God, is something he himself (Jesus) will despise and disprove of, hence a true form of insult instead! The first verse says that God must be One and Only. Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God, apart from The Father God and the Holy Spirit (in a concept called Trinity). Hence, the fact that now we have more than one God, we will say that Jesus is not a God.

The second verse refers to the absolute and eternal nature of God i.e God has neither beginning nor ending. Muslims and Christians alike believe that Jesus was born by Mary (in Arabic, Maryam). However, only the Christians believe that Jesus died. The fact that he was born means that he has a beginning. And the fact that he dies means that he also has an ending. Therefore, according to the second criteria, Jesus must not be God because he begins and ends (which makes more sense if we consider him a human being, but a prophet, as believed by Muslims).

Thirdly, God must not beget nor is he begotten. What this means is that a God must not be born or that he gives birth. Jesus was born. Hence, he is not a God. The last verse, hence the last criteria suggests that God is not God if he is the same (or possess any similarity with His creation). Jesus obviously appears to be in the form of a man during his lifetime, which again makes him not a God, but as believed by the Muslim, more logically a prophet. With a rather long discussion above, I shall put an end to this part here.  Let me end with this testimony. I firmly bear witness that there is no God except Allah SWT, He is One and Only, and Muhammad SAW was his Messenger.

Suratul Al Anbiya verse 24

"Or have they taken for worship (other) gods besides Him (Allah)? Say: Bring your proof. This (the Quran) is the Reminder for those with me and the Reminder for those before me. But most of them know not the Truth, so they are averse."
