Abah, where are you?

Assalamualaikum.

Sejak dua menjak ni, aku asyik teringat kat abah je. Aku rindu abah. Sangat sangat rindu. Scroll down FB, nampak post pasal abah. Buka you tube dan selongkar pon masih pasal abah. Korek korek MR. Google hensem pon, tetap pasal abah. Sini abah. Sana abah.

Aku jadi rindu pada orang itu!

Abah, Ann rindu abah, abah kat mana? Ann nak sangat jumpa abah. Banyak Ann nak cerita kat abah ni.
"Abah tau tak Ann sekarang dah ada kat Russia, kat negara orang. Ann ambil bidang perubatan. Tu cita-cita Ann dari kecik dan sampai sekarang. Alhamdulillah, Ann mampu sampai sini. Dah separuh jalan dah abah. Ann nak buat abah dan ibu bangga. Abah gembira?"
Kalaulah abah baca. Kalaulah abah dengar.

*kolam bertakung*

"Abah, Ann pernah berazam nak cari abah. Walau kat mana pun abah berada. InsyaAllah! Abah, Ann dah ada orang yang Ann sayang dan Ann harap, dia akan jadi suami Ann nanti, jadi bapa kepada anak-anak Ann, jadi anak kepada ibu dan abah. Tapi, Ann harap sangat-sangat, abah yang jadi WALI Ann. Ann ada abah je. Kalau tak Ann kena pakai wali hakim. Ann TAK NAK. Ann minta tolong bakal menantu abah ni. Minta tolong dia carikan abah bersama-sama Ann. Ann akan cari abah. Ann akan! :'("

Abah, abah dengar tak luahan hati Ann ni? Ann tau abah dengar. Ann tau. ANN PASTI!

*kesat air mata*

Abah, Ann tengok cerita PAPA, I LOVE YOU! Ann menangis, sebab rindu abah. Ann menangis dalam bilik air, atas katil. Ann menangis setiap kali teringat kat abah. Asyik menangis je teringatkan abah.
T.T

Ann dengki tengok orang lain call abah diorang. Keluar jalan-jalan sama-sama. Makan sama-sama. Cakap dan bersembang bersama. Ann dengki abah, Ann DENGKI!

*empangan pecah*

Abah, Ann nak abah tau yang Ann sangat SAYANGKAN abah. Sangat sangat sangat sayang!

I miss you so much....

Tak faham isi al-Quran.

Assalamualaikum.

Bertemu lagi kita di sini. Alhamdulillah! Agak sibuk sekarang sebab uruskan hal-hal nak masuk PASUM ni. Okey, kali ni nak cerita pasal baca Al-Quran!

Hmmm, pernah tak anda semua terfikir (mungkin sambil-sambil baca Al-Quran) apa maksud ayat ni? Ke main baca je semua? Haaa, tipu la kalau tak pernah pun terfikir, aku selalu terfikir.

Ada jugak yang masalah dia, tak nak baca Al-Quran. Sebab? Sebab takut salah baca. Nanti salah maksud, dapat dosa. TAK! Anda silap! Kalau nak tunggu sampai reti baca, memang sampai ke tua la tak baca-baca. Betul tak?

Sabda Nabi s.a.w, "Yang membaca al-Quran sedangkan dia mahir dengannya akan bersama-sama dengan para malaikat. Yang membaca al-Quran dan tergagap-gagap dan al-Quran amat payah ke atasnya maka baginya DUA PAHALA" -Riwayat al-Bukhari.

Maksud mendapat dua kali pahala, iaitu (1) pahala membaca dan (2) pahala susah payah menghafalnya..

Wah, pelaburan yang menguntungkan! ^0^

Jadi, kepada sesiapa yang tak nak baca sebab yang berkenaan, maka padamkanlah hasrat anda tu dan mulalah membaca Al-Quran sekarang. Tapi macam mana pulak yang nak baca, tapi tak paham. Haa, jom kita ikuti kisah di bawah.

* * * * * *

Suatu pagi di hujung minggu, seorang budak bernama Mikail terdengar atuknya membaca Al-Quran. Sebaik sahaja atuknya selesai mengaji, dia terus menerpa ke atuknya lalu bertanya,

“Tuk, Mikail nak tanya ni. Tuk faham tak ape yang atuk baca tadi?”.

Dengan tenang atunya menjawab,

“Mestilah faham cu. Dulu atuk pernah belajar bahasa arab dengan arwah bapa atuk. Kenapa cu?”

Mikail kemudian menyatakan pendapatnya tentang membaca Al-Quran. Dia memberitahu bahawa beruntunglah atuknya itu sebab tahu membaca dan memahami isi kandungan Al-Quran sedangkan dia hanya tahu membaca tapi tak faham langsung.

Jadi tak ada faedah bagi dia membaca sebab tak faham. Serupalah jugak kalau kita membaca surat khabar bahasa Jerman ke atau bahasa Perancis. Baca boleh tapi apa pun tak faham.

Kemudian atuknya membawa Mikail ke luar rumah. Sampai sahaja di tasik berdekatan dengan rumahnya itu, disuruhnya Mikail untuk mengambil air dari tasik itu untuk diisi ke dalam baldi di hadapan rumahnya dengan menggunakan bakul sampah.

Mikail kehairanan memikirkan apa yang disuruh oleh atuknya itu. Namun tanpa berfikir panjang, dia lakukan juga. Selepas beberapa kali cuba, dia tidak dapat mengisi air ke dalam baldi tersebut. Mikail akhirnya berputus asa. Lalu dia pun berkata kepada atuknya,

“Atuk, dah banyak kali saya cuba tapi tak boleh jugak sebab air keluar daripada bakul ni. Macam mana?”

Kemudian atuknya memberitahu,

“Begitulah juga kalau kamu membaca Al-Quran tetapi tidak dapat menghayati isi kandungannya sebab tak faham. Meskipun baldi tersebut tidak dapat diisi, tapi bakul sampah tu tadi yang kotor sekarang sudah bersih. Begitu lah juga dengan hati kamu.

Selagi kamu membaca Al-Quran, selagi itulah hati kamu akan sentiasa bersih.”

* * * * * *

Wah, untungnya! Setiap apa yang kita buat, jika ikhlas kerana Allah, insyaAllah ada ganjarannya. Jangan risau. Biarlah sekarang ni bersusah-susah kita nak membaca, apatah lagi untuk memahaminya. Jangan sampai bila di akhirat kelak ditanya Allah, kita tak punya alasan kenapa tak baca! :)

Where is God?

Assalamualaikum. Here's another story shared from somewhere. Do read, please. :)

* * * * * *

Professor : You are a Muslim, aren't you, son ?
Student : Yes, sir.
Professor: So, you believe in GOD ?
Student : Absolutely, sir.
Professor : Is GOD good ?
Student : Sure.
Professor: Is GOD all powerful ?
Student : Yes.
Professor: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to GOD to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But GOD didn't. How is this GOD good then? Hmm?

(Student was silent.)

Professor: You can’t answer, can you ? Let’s start again, young fella. Is GOD good?
Student : Yes.
Professor: Is Satan good ?
Student : No.
Professor: Where does Satan come from ?
Student : From … GOD …
Professor: That’s right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student : Yes.
Professor: Evil is everywhere, isn't it ? And GOD did make everything. Correct?
Student : Yes.
Professor: So who created evil ?

(Student did not answer.)

Professor: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don’t they?
Student : Yes, sir.
Professor: So, who created them ?
(Student had no answer.)
Professor: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son, have you ever seen GOD?
Student : No, sir.
Professor: Tell us if you have ever heard your GOD?
Student : No, sir.
Professor: Have you ever felt your GOD, tasted your GOD, smelt your GOD? Have you ever had any sensory perception of GOD for that matter?
Student : No, sir. I’m afraid I haven’t.
Professor: Yet you still believe in Him?
Student : Yes.
Professor : According to Empirical, Testable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says your GOD doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?
Student : Nothing. I only have my faith.
Professor: Yes, faith. And that is the problem Science has.
Student : Professor, is there such a thing as heat?
Professor: Yes.
Student : And is there such a thing as cold?
Professor: Yes.
Student : No, sir. There isn’t.

(The lecture theater became very quiet with this turn of events.)

Student : Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can’t go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.

(There was pin-drop silence in the lecture theater.)

Student : What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Professor: Yes. What is night if there isn’t darkness?
Student : You’re wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light. But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and its called darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. If it is, were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn’t you?
Professor: So what is the point you are making, young man ?
Student : Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.
Professor: Flawed ? Can you explain how?
Student : Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good GOD and a bad GOD. You are viewing the concept of GOD as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, Science can’t even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never be seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing.

Death is not the opposite of life, just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?

Professor: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student : Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shook his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument was going.)

Student : Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor. Are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?

(The class was in uproar.)

Student : Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor’s brain?

(The class broke out into laughter. )

Student : Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established Rules of Empirical, Stable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?

(The room was silent. The Professor stared at the student, his face unfathomable.)

Professor: I guess you’ll have to take them on faith, son.
Student : That is it sir … Exactly ! The link between man & GOD is FAITH. That is all that keeps things alive and moving.

* * * * * *

The end. Haven't you realised yet? Look around yourself and you will find the answer. These are all the proof that Allah do exist!
