Manusia Berlagak Tuhan

Banyaknya manusia yang berlagak Tuhan. Jatuh hukum ikut suka. Kalau tidak, masa kan janin yang baru dilahirkan boleh dibuang macam sampah. Nyawa tak ada harga barangkali di zaman millenium ni. "Kau anak haram, baik mati. Hidup pun tak guna, tanggung malu seumur hidup", pasti ada manusia yang begitu. Keji.

Banyaknya manusia yang berlagak Tuhan. Jatuh hukum ikut suka. Kalau tidak, masa kan terdapat desas desus mengatakan tragedi ribut taufan yang melanda bazaar ramadhan di Jasin baru-baru ini adalah bencana yang Allah turunkan sebagai balasan. Wallahualam, tapi wajar ke tatkala orang lain ditimpa musibah, kita di sini sibuk nak mempersoalkan kenapa dan mengapa Allah menurunkan bencana sebegitu rupa? Siapa kita nak membuat andaian atas tiap kejadian yang berlaku? Aduh, manusia..

Allah menduga bukan sahaja golongan yang beriman kepadaNya, juga termasuk yang kafir. Allah mahu melihat kepada siapa kita kembali pada saat kebutuhan. Dan Allah juga menciptakan kesabaran pada hamba hambaNya. Samada kita patuh atau tidak. Semua itu ada penjelasannya.

Al-Fathihah buat mangsa tragedi yang terkorban.

Satu lagi kisah manusia yang mensabitkan dosa pahala ikut suka hati. Minggu lalu, aku naik teksi ke Desa Pandan. Masuk-masuk teksi saja, sejuk hati mendengar alunan ayat-ayat Al-Quran di radio, dipasang oleh si pemandu teksi yang berkopiah. Sebaik bertolak, ditanya aku siapa gerangan si qari yang membaca. Jujur aku jawab aku tak kenal, rupanya imam besar di Masjidil Haram. Terlintas dalam hati, "Kalau bab-bab ni, Abah sure tau". Tak lama kemudian, sewaktu teksi melewati pasar malam di sekitar Desa Pandan, si pemandu teksi tadi tiba-tiba mengeluh.

"Kenapalah orang muda sekarang ni ramai tak suka solat kan?".

Aku mengiyakan sambil menjawab, "Itu la.. orang sekarang ambil mudah dosa pahala".

"Tengok tu, inilah sebabnya Allah tak suka pasar. Awak tahu tak Allah tak suka pasar?". Sekali lagi dia mengeluh dan mengucap panjang sambil menunding jari ke arah segerombolan manusia di sekitar tapak pasar malam tu tadi.

Allah tak suka pasar? Kali ini aku was-was dengan statement si pemandu teksi itu tadi, lantas aku balas laju. "Allah tak suka pasar? Isk pakcik ni, mana ada. Solat atau tak tu terletak atas individu tu sendiri, bukan terletak atas pekerjaan dia. Mana pakcik tahu diorang tak solat, pandai-pandai je pakcik ni", aku cuba membangkang dalam nada berseloroh.

"Haa, isteri saya pun tak percaya Allah tak suka pasar. Nabi pun ada cakap dalam hadis yang Allah tak suka pasar", tegas si pemandu teksi.

"Isk yeke pakcik? Cuba pakcik bagi tau saya hadis yang mana, tak pernah pulak saya dengar so far", aku berseloroh lagi tapi kali ini sedikit sinis. Tak pula diberi petikan hadis yang dimaksudkan. Pelik, tadi beriya benar kata ada. Aku hilang ingatan apa topik seterusnya, sebab malas pulak aku nak melayan.

Malam tu, waktu lepak di ruang tamu dengan Abah, aku bertanyakan siapa nama imam besar di Masjidil Haram. Guess what? Haremmm jauh beza dari nama yang dipetik oleh si pemandu teksi siang tadi. Mentang-mentanglah aku tak tau siapa, kau suka suki petik nama ya? Ada hati pulak tu nak accuse orang tak bersolat sembarangan. Inilah dia contoh manusia yang berlagak Tuhan. Bila mata tak nampak amal orang, dikatanya tak bersolat bagai.

Ada manusia yang masuk syurga-Nya kerana dosa yang telah dia lakukan.
Ada manusia yang masuk neraka-Nya kerana pahala yang telah dia lakukan.

Bermaksud, setelah berbuat dosa, seseorang itu bertaubat nasuha dan meninggalkan segala larangan-Nya serta kembali beriman kepada Allah. Golongan ini adalah antara yang dijanjikan syurga, insyaAllah.

Ada juga yang masuk neraka kerana amal yang dibuat. Beribadah tapi tidak ikhlas, dicanang-canangkan. Atau diri dianggap orang alim, sempurna tapi yang lain dikeji sebab tak beramal sepertimana dia. Bak kata orang, sepatutnya bila kanan berbuat kebaikan, yang kiri tak tahu menahu. Wallahualam.

Satu jari kita tunding orang, selebihnya tunding pada kita. Nak perbetulkan orang boleh, tapi biar molek caranya. Pendek kata, sendiri mau ingat.

Jangan berlagak Tuhan.

Flips and Drops

Went to Genting last weekend. Nothing much less different than before up there, except that I rode the roller coaster alone for the first time without a company. And for the first time as well, I kept my eyes wide open from start till the end, yeah surprisingly! Seriously before this tak pernah tak tutup mata. Pastu seboleh-bolehnya akan grip safety harness tu sekuat-kuat hati macam tanak lepas, punya la takut sampaikan suara pun tak berbunyi.

I am terrified of roller coasters and scared to death but somehow I don't know, this time was different. I just wanted to give it a try, wanna know how it 'truly' feels. Freaking out? Ofcourse, but I don't think too much about it. Imagination can be super wild you know, especially while waiting for your turn.. gosh! By the way, I chosed to sit in the middle, alone. Still don't have enough guts to sit at the front.. yet, hiew.

Well? It wasn't that bad at all pun! Never thought it would be so much fun and thrilled at the same time. Ingatkan sure dah pengsan macam separuh mati, rupanya tak pun. It went so quickly and by the time it was over, I was like, "Eh, dah habis? Tu je? Come on, I want more pleaseeeee". Eceh, berlagak tak ingat! Let see now, I've tried Solero Shot, I've went for Skytrex, I've rode roller coaster alone with eyes wide open, I've done wall climbing. Dang, these are kind of personal achievement to me, as I'm scared of height and speed. Hee :D

By the way, I've learned that we wouldn't know what is waiting for us behind the flips and drops, and how does it really feels like going up and down the steep hills.. until we went on it. Or in other words, until we have experienced it ourselves. Freaking out is normal, but you need to face your fear and learn to deal with it somehow. Same goes in life, just give it a shot. Don't worry, you'll be just fine. "Nothing can cross the path of our destiny without leaving some mark on it forever". Aite? *wink*

Life is a roller coaster ride
It brings you up slowly
then shoots you like a rocket towards the ground

It twists you and it shakes you before it turns you upside down
You can't see what's around the corner
And you can't look back, so just live it up and feel the rush

Rise Above

I asked God for strength that I might achieve.
I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey.

I asked for health that I might do greater things.
I was given infirmity that I might do better things.

I asked for riches that I might be happy.
I was given poverty that I might be wise.

I asked for power that I might have the praise of men.
I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God.

I asked for all things that I might enjoy life.
I was given life that I might enjoy all things.

I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I hoped for.
Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered.

Some of us are meant to suffer
Some of us are led to believe that we have this certain destiny,
and then it just get snatched away.
But we have to stay alive..
because we have to see how the story ends.

Give & Gain

The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing, and becomes nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn and feel and change and grow and love and live." - by Leo F. Buscaglia
Macam Wani cakap, "You give nothing, you gain nothing. You give the world, you gain the sea", which is true indeed. Are we willing to take the risk and brave enough to make one step ahead, is really up to us. If you never try, then you will never know. Just have faith, Suerie!
You will get as far as you let yourself..

Give A Chance and Listen

You see; you can find the good in everybody, if you just give them a chance. The benefit of the doubt. Sometimes, people disappoint you. Sometimes they surprise you. But you never really get to know them until... you listen for what's in their hearts. That's what we should do for them. So for you skeptics out there, prepare to be surprised.

Grateful

I had the blues because I had no shoes
until upon the street, I met a man who had no feet.

If you feel upset, angry or frustrated because you don't get everything you want, think about others who didn't get everything that they need. Open up your eyes, widen your view and try to look at things from a different perspective. It's one of the ways for you to stay positive. This video below is nothing new, I know. I re-shared this once again, something for us to ponder upon.

Psychokinetic Influence

The act of "psychokinetically" affecting your reality is called "manisfestation". By understanding how Psychokinesis works, you are able to know the mechanics of manifestation much better. Changing your reality with your intent is after all a mind thing. Studying how psychic phenomena works, plays a large part in your ability to manifest what you want.

Suddenly, I think I can relate to this. Chuck, I guess you should start considering to use your Psychokinetic Influence now. Three times in a row? That is coincidence no more, that is FATE! (Oh wow, look who's talking now huh.. haha). Next time (if you are that lucky to meet him again la kan), the moment you see him, kau kena terus pandang dia and say (dalam hati), "Look at me, boy.. look at me! Talk to me.. talk to meeeeee" and your tone harus macam witch tengah cast a spell, hahahaha. Try lah, mana tau jadi ke kan.. just have faith, LOL! Having faith in something puts us in a state of confidence. Oh, I've just read that on the net just now.. hieww :D

But as what Daughtry said in his song..
Be careful what you wish for, cause you just might get it all and then some you dont want.

HAHAHA, psycho tak?



p/s: Err should I just go to the conference this Saturday?
*giggling stupidly*
