Ulasan 2 - BH 25 Januari 2010 - Boleh Seksi Tapi Kekal Integriti Page 10

It was written by Ms Ervina Mohd Jamil an ex SP student waiting to enter University.

The direct translation to this topic would be in English - Sexy with Integrity

Apparently, as it is in BH i assumed most of the readers would be Malay Muslims or Other races who understands malay language (and not Muslim) but the main would definitely be the former. 

My assumption would be she is a Muslim. 

And as I recall as a Muslim lady is commanded by Allah SWT to be modest in her dressing. 

Tell me what integrity does she have if she choose to wear sexily? What kind of moral values is she displaying to other community? 

Remember this wajib is wajib and NO amount of excuses you have in your head (modern times inclusive) can change the context of a modest Muslim women dressing.

No matter how harsh i may sound however, certain excuses maybe relevant for example  - the need to be in uniform be it in school or at work.

Aside from that, modesty must be respected and since Allah SWT has mention in Quran - Surah An Nur Ayat 31, therefore we know that the ladies do have a place in Islam and she is being revered and respected;



And order the Muslim women to lower down their sights a little and guard their chastity and show not their adornment but as much which is itself apparent and remain putting their head coverings over their bosoms. And disclose not their adornment but to their husbands, or to their fathers, or the fathers of their husbands, or to their or the of sons husbands or their brothers or the sons of their brothers or the sons of their sisters or the women of their religion or their handmaids who are the property of their hands or servants provided they are not men of sexual desire or the children who are unaware of the private parts of the women; and put not their feet forcibly on the ground that hidden adornment may be known. And repent to Allah, O Muslims all together, hapily you may get prosperity.

Khamar - Arak - Tuak

As we all know alcoholic drinks are forbidden in Islam. Why it is forbidden because some people just lament the fact that God Says so.

Note that in the beginning, alcoholic drinks is as common as water and everyone will serve that.

Allah has shown mercy to them (at that point) by not prohibiting or forbidden it totally but slowly.

Proof of that is 4 verses came down to proof it:

1. An Nahl Ayat 67




And from the fruits of the palm trees and grapevines you take intoxicant and good provision. Indeed in that is a sign for a people who reason.

2. Al Baqarah Ayat 219



They ask you about wine and gambling. Say, "In them is great sin and [yet, some] benefit for people. But their sin is greater than their benefit." And they ask you what they should spend. Say, "The excess [beyond needs]." Thus Allah makes clear to you the verses [of revelation] that you might give thought.


3. An Nisa Ayat 43





O you who have believed, do not approach prayer while you are intoxicated until you know what you are saying or in a state of janabah, except those passing through [a place of prayer], until you have washed [your whole body]. And if you are ill or on a journey or one of you comes from the place of relieving himself or you have contacted women and find no water, then seek clean earth and wipe over your faces and your hands [with it]. Indeed, Allah is ever Pardoning and Forgiving.

4. Al Maidah Ayat 90-91



O you who have believed, indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing on] stone alters [to other than Allah ], and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it that you may be successful.




Satan only wants to cause between you animosity and hatred through intoxicants and gambling and to avert you from the remembrance of Allah and from prayer. So will you not desist?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
tell me if these 4 does not deters you to stop drinking...what then will stop you? wait for you to get hit by a car when you are drunk hoping for a 2nd chance then you will stopped?

A Joke...

Now we know why Islam stress the importance of separate bedrooms between parents and children when they attain a certain age and why brothers and sisters can't sleep together when they reached a certain age.

Heard on the streets one day while I was hanging out with an ex colleague in front of Hotel 81 where I used to work..a young boy was peeing on the grass patch near the hotel staircase..

Mommy to Boy about 5-6 years old:
Hey why you pee there??? You can't anyhow pee let people see! Later police catch u I donno hor!!
* spanks boy*

Boy: cries loudly..

Mommy: stop crying. I buy u sweets from the shop..Stop Crying!!!!

Boy: how come Daddy can pee in your mouth that day I saw one...

At this revelation the mother's face turn red and she grabbed the boy out from our view while me and my friend tries very hard to keep a straight face.

Just to share ... It happened about 5 years back..and one of the most memorable that I still remember to date.

Don't forget to lock your bedroom tonight and if u have young kids sleeping with u, make sure they are asleep or very most find an alternative place for your ECA. :)

Regards

edzwan..

A General Update

Apologies as i have not been updating the blog for a while now. Too busy at work and too stone to continue writing on the blog :P

Well anyway here are some updates

Last week, our office had a major renovation. I am no longer enclosed in a stuffy windowless room. I am now being put up at the corporate office and have a very spacious area - Alhamdulillah.

I am not sure how Islam view Feng Shui though i did remember there was a write up on it. 

Anyway facing the wall while working is not that good and my new position is facing a wide area and my left are all my colleagues. I have 1 colleague behind me who face the wall while in front of me still has 4 more desks - empty :)

Nevertheless i feel better though :)

That's a first.

Due to the major overhaul, we were pushed to remain in the board room for 7  of us. Imagine how crampy it is. Our GM as a compensation - bought lunch for everyone for a week. I had like free lunches! ahha

Alhamdulillah :)

work is piling but i am happy though for some reason i feel so relieved.

I guess i have no reason to be sad. oh well that's life ada pasang ada surut..:)

Ulasan 1 - BH 6hb Januari 2010

Ulasan ini mengenai kisah pengantin baru yang lesap dan melarikan wang hantaran.

Perkahwinan muda remaja - gadis berumur 18tahun dan lelaki umur 25 tahun dan berstatus duda!
Saya baru 28 tahun, masih single and VIRGIN gitu eh! 

Apabila saya membaca artikel ini, saya hairan mengapa anak gadis berusia 18tahun tidak rasa bersalah berkeluar dengan seorang lelaki yang bukan muhrimnya.

Mengapa tergamak beliau meninggalkan bapa yang menyayanginya bak menatang minyak yang penuh.

Mengapa menantu beliau sanggup berkata kata seperti "kau jual anak ke Binatang?" terhadap mertuanya?

Kemana akal fikiran gadis itu? 

Wahai adik adik perempuan - ketahuilah satu perkara YANG amat sensible dan senang difikirkan sejenak.

Lelaki pandai berkata kata - dah memang lelaki katanya. Tapi bezakan lah antara lelaki yang baik, beriman dan hormat menghormati antara satu sama lain dan lelaki yang biadab, kurang pendidikan agama dan tiada pegangan moral pada dirinya.

Pada umur muda 25 tahun beliau sudah MENJADI duda. 

First Alarm Bell: At what age did he marry?
Second Alarm Bell: Why did he get divorced? Did he not give maintenance money to his ex wife??

Tingkah laku - lelaki yang baik dan memang berniat untuk menjadikan perempuan itu sebagai isterinya TIDAK akan mengungkit perilah wang hantaran.

Dalam Islam tidak perlu wang hantaran tapi kerana ia adat - ia seperti hadiah dari lelaki kepada wanita yang akan di kahwininya maka ia masih diteruskan. 

Tapi dari segi kisah ini, amat memilukan yang si bapa MEMINTA wang hantaran.

Kalau mengikut cara cara keluarga saya, kami tidak pernah meletakkan atau meminta wang hantaran. Ia diserahkan bulat bulat kepada pihak lelaki untuk memberikannya. 

Ia boleh di gunakan untuk membayar keperluan majlis, membeli keperluan bilik mempelai atau lain lain sahaja yang boleh mendatang kan faedah untuk kedua dua mempelai.

Amat menyedihkan bahawa gadis berusia 18tahun sanggup membuat ayahnya sedemikian dan meninggalkan hutang yang akan membebankan keluarga beliau.

SO girls remember these few tips:

1. Get the right man - respect you as a woman, respect your parents and respect your religion
2. Get the right man - berpegang teguh pada agama, boleh mendidik isteri dan anak anak dan boleh menjadi ketua keluarga yang sempurna
3. Dont go out too often with the guys who likes to ke hulur ke hilir tanpa faedah..
4. Always think and question and dont be too blinded by love
The signs are there...just look for it
