Aku lah AshiqatuLLAH itu...

Aku...

Punya cerita sendiri yang ingin ku kongsi..
cerita cinta yang berbeza tapi indah belaka....

aku khuatir jika tulisan ini gagal melakarkan cinta itu...

biarlah ku mulakan dulu dan kalian membacanya...

Aku semakin kuat menangis...
aku berdiri memahami,
ayat-ayatNya dibaca syahdu..
alangkah indah jika kufahami semua KalamMu..

Tuhan...
Dia sedang berbicara denganku..
Aku merasa ingin sekali terbang bertemuNya,
Dia mengagungkan namaku dalam KalamNya,
Dia memujukku dengan ayat cintaNya...
Dia iringi namaku dengan Syurga...
Mampukah Syurga itu milikku?
Aku merindui Syurga?
Aku ingin memeluk Tuhanku..
Aku ingin terbang segera bertemu WajahNya...

Aku membawa diri ke tangga,
langkahku semakin longlai,
aku terjatuh!
Ah!
Sukarnya ku miliki Cinta itu..
Aku cuba merangkak tapi tidak berdaya...
Aku lah sufi!
Yang hanyut dalam nikmat Cinta TuhanNya,...

.............

Dan cinta mereka memelukku,
aku benar-benar merasa getar rasa mereka,
mereka memberi ku sayap untuk ku terbang...
Aku ingin terbang...

Itulah sahabat-sahabatku...
Aku merasa ayat-ayat itu hanya dituju untukku,
tapi Cinta Tuhan tidak untukku semata...

...................

Lihatlah manusia,
tulisan ku tetap jua gagal melakar rasa indah itu..
Aku ingin bertemu Tuhanku,
Tuhanku yang Selalu Mendengar Sendu taubatku,
Tuhanku yang Selalu Melihat derai tangisku,
Tuhanku yang Selalu memujuk kekecewaaanku...

Aku ingin segera kembali kepada Tuhanku...

tapi ia masih jauh...........

Wahai Manusia yang Mempunyai Hati!

Tatkala aku merasa cintaNya memenuhi segenap ruang hati,
Di saat itu juga aku merindui sang mati,
Mencabut ruhku dari jasad ini,
Membawaku kepada Kekasihku yang menanti,
Ku tahu Dia rindu untuk bertemu denganku,
Seperti aku juga begitu kesedihan menahan rindu untuk memelukNya.

Benar kata ulama dahulu:
“andai putera raja tahu betapa nikmatnya sebuah cinta Tuhan,
Pasti dia akan merebutnya dari kami.”

Wahai manusia yang mempunyai hati…
Serulah hatimu kepada Cinta Tuhanmu,
Andai kau tahu nikmat CintaNya,
Kau tidak akan pedulikan lagi isi dunia,
Kerana kau sudah mencapai nikmat bahagia sejati,
Bahagia memetik Cinta Sang Rabbul Izzati,

Wahai manusia yang mempunyai hati,
Cemburulah kalian terhadap perindu Ilahi,
Yang hidupnya dibuai tangisan rindu,
Lantaran cinta yang ingin bersatu…

Wahai manusia yang mempunyai hati,
Carilah Cinta Ilahi,
Kamu sesekali tidak akan kecewa,
Kerana cintamu bukan sia-sia…

Puisi itu adalah Hatiku

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

luahan hati yang sukar di mengerti,

aku terasing dalam dunia sendiri,

mencari hakikat sebuah bahagia sejati.

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

yang ku ukir dengan tangisku di malam hari,

merindu dia yang tidak mungkin kembali,

hanya menanti bertemu di syurga abadi.

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

yang ku karang kerana cinta,

kepada Allah yang setia,

mengampun hambanya yang penuh dosa hina.

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

yang ku cipta di kala sepi,

merindu cinta yang belum pasti,

terlerai atau terpatri di kemudian hari.

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

mencari-cari erti hakiki,

sebagai hambaNya yang di Redoi,

dlaam hidup berpaksi ilahi.

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

yang ku titip untuk keluarga tercinta,

kerana kasih yang tidak terhingga,

walau tidka jua terluah dengan kata.

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

yang impikan beriringan bersama Baginda,

melewati pohon-pohon kurma,

yang menangis merindukannya.

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

yang aku lukis dengan kehampaan,

lantaran lupa dalam perjuangan,

tentang saudaraku dalam peperangan.

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

yang merindui mati sejati,

di sambut Sang Rahman di rindui,

memeluk ruhku seerat ku ingini.

Puisi itu adalah hatiku,

yang ku renungi dari kedalaman hati,

kerana rindu bau syurga firdausi,

untuk meraih kebahagiaan ku cari-cari.

Puisi itulah hatiku,

yang ku luah tiada nada mengiringi,

hanya sunyi menemani,

di kala aku menangis seorang diri.

Itulah puisi hatiku,

hasil ujian Allah yang Mengasihi,

menunjuk ku jalan kembali,

bersama Allah cintaku yang abadi.

Kembalikan Aku...

Ya Allah,
Hanya Kau Yang Maha Tahu akhirku,
Hanya Engkau Yang Maha Tahu hari esok yang akan terjadi,
Hanya Engkau Yang Tahu hadir sujudku setelah ini,
Hanya Engkau Maha Tahu syurga tercipta pasti untukku.

Ya Allah,
Aku ingin mati,
Kerana aku kecewa sebagai hambaMu,
HambaMu yang hina,
HambaMu yang bangga dengan imannya,
Namun lemah menjaganya.
Tapi,
PesanMu jangan lah aku berputus asa,
Kerana rahmatMu tidak terhingga,
Tapi hari-hari yang ku lalui,
Hari-hari kegagalan yang ku tempuhi.
Aku terus gagal,
Gagal untuk bangkit dari masa lalu,
Gagal untuk jihad dalam pentarbiahan ini.
Semangatku semakin pudar,
Lantaran dosa semakin tegar,
Melumut hatiku dengan noda kasar,
Aku makin sukar,
Melalui hari-hari yang kosong,
Hari-hariku kosong Tuhan,

Aku…
Dengan hijab yang ku bangga,
Masih gagal merombak dosa,
Yang terbelit di jasadku yang hina,
Hingga hijabku hilang kuasanya.

Aku!
Terus merintih,
Mohon padaMu agar hilang semua jerih,
Jerih menjaga iman dari runtuh,
Oleh dosa menghimpit utuh!

Aku!
Terbelenggu lagi oleh maksiat dan dosa,
Lantaran hati memilih dunia,
Mengikut nafsu kian gelora,
Sehingga jauh aku dari Keagungan Cinta!
Aku!
Ah!
Berlari mencari kiblahMu,
Berdiri penuh syahdu,
Sujud setulus kalbu,
Menangis tersendu-sendu,
Ya Allah!
Aku hambaMu,
Aku kembali memcariMu,
Setelah sekian kali hanyut dalam tempias nafsu,
Aku!
Gersang seluruh kalbu,
Dari cucuran air ketenangan,
Kerana jauh dari Al-Quran,

Aku!
Wahai Allah,
Seperti Muhammad berkata selalu,
“Demi jiwaku di tangan Mu”
Maka begitu juga aku,
“Demi jiwaku di tanganMu”
Rentaplah tanganku sekuat Kau mahu,
Pegang imanku dengan RahmatMu,
Bawa aku mencariMu kembali,
Agar aku tidak terdorong lagi,
Terlucut jatuh dari peganganMu,
Sehingga sukar untuk bertatih kembali,
Menyusun zikir cinta untukMu,
Merembes air mata tanda taubatku.

Aku!
Wahai Tuhan,
Ujianmu semakin sukar ku fahami,
Semakin bingung aku hadapi,
Semakin tenat aku jiwai,
Sehingga aku menangis sendiri.

Maafkan aku Tuhan,
Pintaku sekian kali,
Bukan ku menempik firmanMu,
Bukan ku bantah perintahMu,
Agar tetap sabar dan sabar dengan ujianMu,
Tapi….
Aku semakin lemas dalam kepiluan ini,
Aku semakin kecewa dengan kekalahan ini,
Aku KALAH TUHAN.

Ya Allah………..
Aku memanggilMu tanpa jemu,
Aku menjerih sedalam kalbu,
Aku merintih berduka nyilu,
Akhirkan semua ini….
Aku…………
Aku……….
Aku……….
Hanya ingin mencari damai,
Hasil imanku kepada Mu,
Damai sebuah hati yang tenang,
Agar cintaku padaMu kembali datang,
Menghanyutkan aku dalam lautan keinsafan,
Membangkitkanku menegakkan syiar Islam,

Tuhan………
Engkaulah penolongku selama kehidupan,
Engkaulah harapanku tidak pernah padam,
Tuhan……….
Rintihanku kabulkanlah,
Aku…….
Semakin sakit dengan kegagalan,
Semakin hanyut dalam nafsu kehidupan,
Aku semakin hina sebagai hambamu Tuhan,
Kerana aku tenggelam dalam kegagalan.

Tuhan,
Izinkan aku kembali lagi,
Dengarlah rintihku dari kedalaman hati,
Berilah aku peluang untuk kembali,
Takdirkan aku hidup dalam cintaMu,
Rahmatkan aku bahagia limpahmu,
Setelah lama aku hanyut dalam sendu,
Untuk melepaskan ingatan masa lalu.

Tuhan,
Matikan aku dalam CintaMu,
Matikan aku dalam sujud kepadaMu,
Matikan aku dalam tangis taubatku,
Matikan aku saatku rindu bertemu denganMu.
Maafkan aku Tuhan,
Sering gagal dalam berjuang,
Membunuh nafsu semakin kuat mencengkam,
Memercik hangat darah-darah kepahlawanan,
Sehingga kering dari wangian pentarbiahan,
Tenggelam dalam nanah nafsu syaitan!

Allah,
Tiada lagi suara memanggilMu,
Hanya hati menjerit pilu,
Kembalikan aku kepada Mu,
Panahi hatiku dengan hidayahmu,
Lepaskan aku dari belenggu nafsu,
Kuatkan imanku memerangi kejahatan,
Yang bersemadi dalam jiwa yang kusam,
Agar mampu aku bangkit kembali,
Membangun ummah yang lentok dalam kejahilan,
Khayal dalam kemaksiatan,
Buta dalam perjuangan Islam…

Kembalikan aku kepada semalam,
Semalam yang menuntutku untuk mati,
Mati dalam kemenangan
Menegakan syiar Islam.
Ya Allah Ya Rahman,
Makbulkan doaku ini,
Aku dizalimi nafsu sendiri,
Aku dicaci oleh imanku sendiri,
Aku semakin hanyut mencari diri,
Diri seorang hambaMu yang sejati,

Ya Allah…..

MALAYSIAN CULTURE: MOSAIC OR MELTING POT?

Malaysia, before the glorious of its independent on 31th August 1957 has relished juxtaposes of diverse multiculturalism. This is anticipated to the policy of the colonial power-British- that liberated the coming of the immigrants from outside Tanah Melayu especially from China and India in order to suit the employment vacancies in industrial and estate fields (the British brought in Chinese and Indians to work in on the mines, plantations and fill up the void in professional expertise.) On the other hands, Malays at the very beginning as the original people of the land were subjugated under British rules to dominate the traditional workplaces. Tanah Melayu at that time witnessed the impact of the detachment of the work fields by British which the economic gap vastly wide spread between indigenous people and the immigrants; that is Chinese immigrants successfully dominated the wealth of industrial field while on the opposite, Malays greatly struggle on their own land to survive difficultly in traditional workplaces especially in villages.

The history of multiculturalism after Malaysia reached its independent is not a romantic idea to enjoy. The multiculturalism depicted through the media very idealistic but in reality, it is not easy to live side by side in multiculturalism practices, different religions and beliefs, customs as well as language are among sensitive things that always raise riot among the multi-communities in Malaysia. The black day of 16 Mei racial riots of 1969 is one of the crucial results of ethnic tensions that if possible tried to erase from the history of Malaysia, and even the Malaysians do not willing to remember those societal disaster as they already adapted to the view of romantic multiculturalism. It sought to address the significant imbalance in the economic sphere where the minority Chinese population had substantial control over commercial activity in the country.[i]

Malaysia enjoys the large number of population in its multi-cultural identity, multi-ethnic, multi- lingual as well as multi religions society with Malays comprises 52% out of more than 27 millions of the whole populations, followed by Malaysians of Chinese descent with 23.7%, Malaysians of India descent comprises 7.1% of the population and others, consists of various tribal groups especially from Sabah and Sarawak comprise 11%.[ii] Does this scenario of Malaysia landscape of diverse ethnicity able to sustain its peace in the pipeline? Does Malaysia experience of multiculturalism turns its cultural landscape into mosaic instead of melting pot? Malaysia is on its way to the architecture of mosaic culture- a multitude of different cultures in a society or some areas in a city where people of different cultures coexist and they should preserve their cultures and the different cultures should interact peacefully within one nation- [iii] that will blissfully keep the juxtaposes of diverse community without melting their customs or beliefs to another product of culture (melting pot).

In the first place, history of Malaysia throughout its 52 years of independent proves the economic sectors always dominated by the Chinese. Chinese in their sustainable success and domination in economic sectors shows that the wealth of the country should not be shared by other ethnics. They may live side by side with Malays or India, but there still vast gap economically that giving people from different ethnicity that Chinese will forever control the economy of Malaysia, especially. The worst riot of Mei 16 of 1969 between Chinese and Malays lead to the introduction of the New Economic Policy which aimed to reduce the economic disparities between ethnic groups. Since that, more new policies introduced to encourage the unity among the ethnic groups in Malaysia such as Rukunegara and promoted the festival such as Deparaya and Kongsi Raya.[iv] Furthermore, the intensive policies made by government seem hard to merge the ethnicity groups to understand the need of having balance economic distribution of wealth. It may due to the attitudes of the Chinese whom widely known as hardworking nation compare to Malay stigmatized by all people as lazy. Thus, Malaysia economically distribute to the widespread of the cultural mosaic, where the diverse ethnicity can still live side by side in harmonious way, but fail to merge and share the prosperities own by particular ethnics. Malay as the majority population and the Bumiputera should be noted as a nation that is well- kin to their customs and heritage.

Second, cultural mosaic in Malaysia will keep on going due to the political factors that seem imbalance distribution of power for the non-Malay or Bumiputera but is regarded as high privilege of the Bumiputera to maintain its domination in the country especially in the governmental positions. Malaysia implemented democracy parliamentary system that the king (Yang Di-Pertuan Agong) held the highest position followed by the prime minister. The power of Agong in the religion and custom should not be questioned by the citizens since it is very sensitive issue for the Malay communities. But, this privilege given to Bumiputera does not terminate the position in ministry level to be employed by the non-Malays. The political struggles among politicians to hold the important position in government indicate the disintegration of same thought as Malaysian. The non- Malay communities feel pessimistic on the selection of the Prime Minister for 5 decade to be Malay men. Though the selection is done by democracy election, but they still feel that Malay Prime Minister will only serve for the Malay communities and he will struggle the best to sustain the right of the Bumiputera regardless in some occasions denying the right of non-Bumiputera. It gives a view that every ethnic wanted to have their own representative in the governmental making-decision levels that fortunate or unfortunately force the government to at least vacant some positions in the government to the non-Bumiputera. This is to avoid the ethnic tensions that may rise due to the prejudice and unsatisfactory among the diverse non-Malay ethnic groups. It depicts the multiculturalism that shapes the cultural mosaic of ethnicity group in Malaysia as something tensions and to be worried in the future. Every ethnic group does not want to submit to any policy that requires imbalance power distribution in the national level. This is among the main reasons lead to the manifestation of politics by the citizens such as Hindraf and ISA strike, recently.

Third reason leads Malaysia to nurture its mosaic culture is through the identity of the ethnicity itself. Each of the ethnicity members want to be recognized as one of their ethnicity group. A sense of belonging to the particular group in Malaysia is strong and it seems the hope of the current Prime Minister, YAB. Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak of his ‘1 Malaysia’ is worth for nothing. People from different communities in Malaysia will not regard themselves as truly Malaysia. They merely choose to be recognized by their inherit descent nations. Malays, Chinese and even Indian would rather be called as Malay, Chinese and Indian though they admit the advantages and disadvantages carried by their own nations. The Malay will forever say Malaysia formally known as Tanah Melayu as their native land and other ethnicity who hundred years ago known as immigrants believe Malaysia is only the land of Malay people. Question rises, does 1 Malaysia would finally turn Malaysia into melting pot culture which everybody in the future voluntarily admit their nationality as truly Malaysian? Or it will drown as time goes by in future as what already experience to the previous motto of the former prime ministers to unite the diverse ethnicity as one- One Malaysia-?

In Addition, the official language of the Malaysia is Bahasa Melayu. The word Bahasa Melayu changed for several time. At one time, the official language of Malaysia known as Bahasa Malaysia which connoted the idea of regardless of any ethnicity comprise the population of Malaysia, everyone should master Bahasa Malaysia. Bahasa Malaysia at one time is used to promote the unity of the different communities under one language that is Bahasa Malaysia. This is to ensure every language speaker of different communities not to feel isolated and no language spoken in Malaysia superior over one another. But, the citizens still regard Bahasa Malaysia belongs to the Malay community. The official as well as the masses language are spoken and written in Malay. After revealed the fact to ‘Malaysialization’ of Bahasa Melayu failed to unite the diverse ethnicity living in Malaysia, the government finally bit their tongue by changing Bahasa Malaysia to Bahasa Melayu. Again, does this idea able to reunite the multi-ethnicity in Malaysia? Does Bahasa Melayu able to unite the country with people unconsciously puzzle into mosaic culture? Or it is a great indicator that language fail to unite the people? ‘Satu Bahasa, Satu Bangsa dan Satu Negara’ had been promoted before is viewed as idealistic to the country that enjoys the multiculturalism like Malaysia. Language is regarded by its native speakers as prestigious, honorable and an identity of particular nations. Everyone intuits to preserve his/her own language. ‘Bahasa Jiwa Bangsa’ is a very strong proverb to indicate the pertinent to preserve the language of the community. There lay a hope to maintain the existence of the nation, because where there is a language spoken, there live the nation.

Furthermore, when we talk on culture, we cannot run away from the custom practicing by diverse communities and ethnicities in Malaysia. The custom of the people are greatly shaped by the religions and beliefs they confess to. The dissimilarity in practicing the religions somehow leads to the social tension when people fail to understand the culture of others. The issue of the pig farm always disturbing Malay communities. They want to have not any pig farm projects in Malaysia because they regard pig as haram (prohibited) and dirty as truly Islam determined about it. But the issue is what about the Chinese people who regard pork as their everyday meals? And plus eating pork does allowed by the Buddhism or other ideologies practicing by them. The lack of understanding and self-prejudice among another are the reason lead to this problem unsolved. The policy of government that make a compulsion to wear a batik shirt and dress once a week for the governmental official look ideal from the outside appearance, but does it really indicates those different people from different background willingly melting their custom to suit with the government policy?

Last but not least, a very sensitive issue among others is the official religion in Malaysia that is Islam. Though Islam is universal religions that widely spread all over the world but, in Malaysia, people still regard Islam is the religion of Malays, not Chinese or Indian. The pessimistic idea play in non-Malays minds that Islam will ultimately become official religion as long as the country governed by the Malay Prime Minister. As mention earlier, the Agong symbolizes a pertinent role in maintaining Islam as the formal religion of the country and nothing can change the custom except the monarchy institution demolish which seems impossible. If monarchy institution happens to be demolished by anti-Malay parties, Malaysia will face big disastrous riots in future and the idea of romantic multiculturalism will turn to blood and sword. This is to say that, apart from living harmoniously in multicultural country and shaping the mosaic culture, any disagreement emerges among diverse ethnicity may lead to the chaos of the country, economically, politically as well as socially.

In conclusion, the multiculturalism has greatly shaped the country to experience the mosaic culture. Multiculturalism is always regarded as a glorious for the country that successfully able to bring different people from different ethnicity, religions and beliefs, customs as well as different language to leave side by side in a harmonious environment under one flag. But, it is not an easy task for the government to maintain the peace in the post-independent period after 5 decades of its independent. Malaysia is a country that experiencing the mosaic culture realizes that it is not something to be proud of in multiculturalism country. Many social tensions are emerged from this mosaic culture. This mosaic culture is like a beautiful rainbow, different colors live side by side harmoniously, but the process of combining and uniting the different ethnicity is not solute over a night. It may successfully maintain the peaceful and may unfortunately create a chaos for the country that welcoming multiculturalism, like Malaysia.

Puing-Puing Berserakan

Dikedaerahan jiwa,
Terungkap satu rindu hamba,
Untuk kembali mencari Yang Esa,
Setelah lama hati menyirna.

Hamba itu mengerti,
Bukan mudah membina keyakinan,
Di atas puing-puing berserakan,
Untuk terus mengenggam cinta ilahi.

Tidak pernah jemu mencari,
Walau hari terus berganti hari,
Dan dosa masih belenggu diri,
Bukan mudah mengusir tabi’i.

Tetapi si hamba yakin pasti,
Sang Tuhan masih menerima diri,
Biar seluas mana dosa menghinggapi,
Sang Tuhan sedia memaafi,
Kerana syurga tercipta menanti,
Untuk si hamba menjejak kaki,
Itu janjiNya pasti.

Si hamba mengorak langkah pengharapan,
Di atas celahan puing-puing berserakan,
Mencari redho Sang Ilahi,
Moga wajahNya mampu membiasi,
Segenap jiwa yang merindui,
Keabadian sejati,
Bersama ALLAH Sang Rabbi.

Early Marriage" Is it practicable Nowadays?

We have gone through the Prophet's life, we know Rasulullah S.A.W married a 9 years old girl namely Aisyah [Radiallahu anha].

If we say prophet's practice is not necessarily to be conformed, then we should refresh our shahadah.

But, how should we do to convince and open the eyes of the world about the truth? The truth that Rasulullah’s practice is always practicable and flexible?

By the way, in my humble opinion, when we ponder the practice of Rasulullah, we cannot deny the reality we are living in now, plus, that above practice is not obliged upon Muslim to follow, it is recommended as a part of Rasulullah Sunnah.

Many people who get married early [in Malay culture, marry during study is considered as early] such as below 20 always give a reason, 'we follow the sunnah', and in Islam it is encourage to marry early , to avoid bad things happen.

But, does that reason is applicable for a couple who are poor, want to marry early but an orphan, where to get money, how to survive?

I’m strictly not condemning sunnah!I LOVE MY RASULULLAH

many times we do not follow sunnah, we follow the culture but we credit our ction as 'we follow the sunnah!"

How long should we use the sentence 'we follow the sunnah!" to hide our real intention?'

We marry early to follow the sunnah’, but in reality they want to avoid the maksiat and to make things forbidden becomes allowable.

Means, before marriage they can be together, already touch the heart but yet fail to touch the body. When they married..ah..You know it right.

I’m not being sarcastic here, i just want to realize we should not use 'we follow the sunnah' just to hide our real intention.

Back to the topic,

in Arab countries, early marriage is a culture. When they decide to study in Malaysia, they already get marriage, in most cases.

It is good!

Can we apply it in Malaysia? in our Malay community? OF COURSE!

What prophet did is capable for us to follow.

But, nowadays if we let our sister at the age of 9 or 15, do you think they can survive with their new life as a wife?

Most probably, during Prophet’s time, girl already mature at early age, like our ancestors who married early.

Can we use that time to compare with our time?Our time where girl does know to taken care even herself, to cook the rice or to wash the plates.

What they know is playing with the doll, pondok-pondok and etc.

my point here is strictly not to go astray from al-Quran and Sunnah, just trying to open up the mind of us, how easily we as in identity card stated as Islam, taking 'we follow the sunnah' as for granted!

Like a husband who wants to marry a second wife 'i just follow the sunnah!'

But deep in his heart, he just follows the nafsu.

But...Allah is Almighty; He can do anything to us, who know sister our sis get married early, she changes to be better.

-Wallahua'lam-
