Perlu perelok ilmu dan adab kita - 17 Mac 2010

SEMENJAK masyarakat kita 'diisytiharkan' berada dalam keadaan pincang, saya menjadi begitu ghairah dan kian meneliti kehidupan dan tabiat masyarakat kita dengan lebih mendalam.

Saya lihat ada segolongan masyarakat kita yang belum lagi berusaha atau cuba memperbaiki diri mereka demi kebaikan mereka sendiri.

Saya ingin berkongsi beberapa pengamatan yang mungkin dianggap remeh namun sebenarnya sedikit sebanyak mencerminkan sikap dan amalan masyarakat kita.

Contoh, setelah adanya badan-badan agama Islam seperti Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (Muis) dan Persatuan Ulama dan Guru-Guru Agama Islam Singapura (Pergas), masih ramai yang mudah dipengaruhi khabar yang belum tentu kesahihannya.

Lihat sahaja ancaman gempa bumi dan desas-desus tentang sijil halal Pastamania.

Ini hanya menunjukkan betapa kurang matangnya masyarakat kita. Yang menyebarkan khabar tanpa usul periksa dan yang menerimanya juga sama.

Bukankah Islam mengajar kita agar mencari kebenaran sesuatu berita yang tidak pasti sebelum membuat sebarang andaian?

Kemudian kita lihat tanggapan masyarakat kita tentang persidangan iklim yang diadakan di Copenhagen tahun lalu. Sedihnya ramai yang tidak ambil peduli.

Lihat sahaja majlis perkahwinan, para tetamu datang menjamu selera dan mengambil sebanyak mungkin makanan. Kemudian makanan itu tidak dapat dihabiskan, dibuang dan berlaku pembaziran.

Jelas kepentingan persidangan itu tidak langsung bererti di dalam masyarakat ini. Bukankah Islam itu mengajar agar jangan membazir? Adakah kita tidak berhati perut terhadap mereka yang kelaparan kerana ditimpa bencana alam dan kemiskinan?

Kemudian kita lihat perdebatan tentang Maulidur Rasul. Saya hairan melihat umat Islam bertengkar tentang perkara ini sehingga ada yang berani mengeluarkan fatwa dan hukum sendiri.

Singapura mengamalkan keharmonian kaum, bangsa dan agama. Namun di antara umat Islam sendiri pertelingkahan berlaku. Mengapa? Benar, kita mencari kebenaran tetapi cara berdakwah bukannya dengan memaksa.

Rasulullah saw mengajar kita mengongsi ilmu dengan akhlak dan hikmah. Siapakah kita untuk menentukan azab atau pahala yang diterima? Jika mahu diberi pesan dan nasihat, lakukan secara hikmah dan doa kepadanya agar dipelihara Allah swt.

Pokoknya, setiap perubahan harus bermula daripada setiap individu agar dapat menjadi contoh kepada keluarga dan teman-teman.

Jika kita tidak dapat mengubah diri sendiri, bagaimana kita dapat mengubah masyarakat kita?

Kini, pemerintah telah melakar pelbagai rancangan bagi pertumbuhan ekonomi kita bagi tahun ini dan beberapa tahun mendatang. Apakah kita akan tetap dibelenggu masalah sama dan terus terkebelakang?

Saya harap kita dapat sama-sama memikirkan dan mengambil peluang ini agar masyarakat kita dapat bangkit dan membuat anjakan minda serta memajukan diri.

Salam alaik everyone!

So sorry for the uncalled 'hiatus'. Its just that, with the recent handover of posts during AGM, we've had to sort certain things out first.

Yes, administration stuffs and the like.

Just to inform you, Taman Ilmu will commence on the..

10th of July 2009.

Yes, this time round, Taman Ilmu sessions will be held every FRIDAY @ 530 to 7 insyaAllah.

For this year, Taman Ilmu will be held as a mixture of a formal class and also a sharing session.
After every topic was brought about and elaborated by the speaker, we will form an usrah circle in which everyone is entitled to voice their opinions, ask questions and discuss on the issue at hand.

Taman Ilmu is currently undergoing a new process of having its own research team to research on the materials needed for any upcoming sessions. Reason being is that, we would like Taman Ilmu tu be self-sufficient upon its own resources instead of relying too much on asatizahs.
Asatizahs will still be invited down occassionally to share their input on various topics, insyaAllah.


So, on behalf of the Ahlul 'Ilm Intifadha (Taman Ilmu Research Team), we hope to see you on the 10th of July. Further details will be put up on this blog insyaAllah, so please do look here constantly for updates(:

Jazkallahu khairan
Fi amanillah barakallahu feekum
=)

SPMLS AGM 2009/2010

Thursday, May 14, 2009

Apologies

Assalaamu'alaikum everyone!

Firstly, we'd like to welcome all the Muslim freshmen to SP! May Allah swt Bless your quest to seek knowledge. 
Anas (RA) said: the Messenger of Allah (SAAW) said:

"He who leaves his home in order to seek knowledge, he is in Allah's path
until he returns [to his home]."

(At-Tirmidhi, Sunan, An-Nawawi, Riyad As-Salahin)

Secondly, we seek your forgiveness for our long absence. It is really due to our own shortcomings that we weren't able to organise more Taman Ilmu sessions in the previous academic year. We also apologise for the lack of updates.

The 36th exco is currently busy with preparations for our upcoming Annual General Meeting, but if anyone wishes to kickstart an informal Taman Ilmu session, be it a tazkirah or an usrah or a halaqah or a tadarus Al-Qur'an session, feel free to come by our clubhouse and start one, whether or not you're a member. 

We have several copies of the Qur'an, and translations as well as a collection of books on Islam if you need to refer to anything.

Oh yes, we're serious. =D 
Sometimes our sessions start from an impromptu discussion, so we're okay with that =)

By the way, if you are unsure of where the Musollahs are around your schools' area (SB or MM or BE etc), please don't hesitate to ask around. 

We apologise to our Kem Wajar participants for not showing you around the school due to limited time, so please do ask us if you wish to know where the Musollahs are. Insya'Allah if we have the time, we'd bring you to the Musollah personally. =)

Insya'Allah we will be reviving Taman Ilmu again this year, and we seek your support in making that possible.

Please do visit SPMLS's Facebook Group by clicking here for updates of our forthcoming activities!

Thank you!

Jazaakallahu Khair =)

The Seven Wonders of the Muslim World

Assalaamu'alaikum!

Dzulhijjah is nearing, and as we eagerly wait for Aidil'adha to arrive, let's take a look at some of our most important mosques.



Let us pray for the safety of our fellow Muslim brothers and sisters who are/will be performing their hajj. May Allah s.w.t. Protect them. Amin. (:

You can find the rest of the series on youtube!
