UNDILAH BERDASARKAN CALON BUKAN PARTI

Berikut adalah temubual dengan S.S Dr Mohd Asri bin Zainul Abidin, Mufti Kerajaan Negeri mengenai siapakah calon yang patut dipilih oleh seseorang dalam Pilihanraya Ke-12 ini. Apakah dengan melihat kepada parti yang diwakili atau kualiti diri calon berkenaan?

S: S.S Dr, apakah soal pengundian ini mempunyai nilainya dalam agama?

Dr. MAZA: Ya, sudah pasti. Pengundian boleh menentukan masa depan rakyat dan negara. Keputusan yang betul akan menyelamatkan masa depan umat dan negara. Sementara keputusan yang salah akan menjerumuskan negara ke dalam kebinasaan, atau penyelewengan. Justeru itu Allah berfirman Surah an-Nisa' ayat 58: (maksudnya) : "Sesungguhnya Allah menyuruh kamu memberikan amanah kepada yang berhak menerimanya dan apabila kamu berhukum di kalangan manusia maka hendaklah kamu berhukum dengan adil. Sesungguhnya Allah memberikan pengajaran yang sebaik-baiknya kepadamu”. Maka pengundian ada nilai yang besar dalam agama ini.

S: S.S Dr, adakah ini bererti anggapan yang menyatakan undian itu mempunyai nilai dosa dan pahala boleh diterima?

Dr. MAZA: Ya, sesiapa yang tahu bahawa undiannya atau pemilihan terhadap calon tertentu itu boleh membawa kerosakan atau keburukan kepada negara dan umat tetapi dia tetap lakukan atas kepentingan diri, atau suka-suka maka dia berdosa. Demikian sebaliknya, jika dia memilih calon yang berkelayakan, maka dia menunaikan arahan Allah tadi, ini bererti dia mendapat pahala. sabda Nabi s.a.w “Adakalanya seseorang kamu berucap dengan sesuatu kalimat yang diredhai Allah, padahal dia tidak menyangka ianya akan sampai ke tahap sedemikian, lalu dengannya Allah mencatatkan keredhaan untuknya sehingga hari dia bertemu Allah. Adakalanya seseorang kamu pula berucap dengan sesuatu kalimat yang dimurkai Allah, padahal dia tidak menyangka ia akan sampai tahap sedemikian, lalu dengannya Allah mencatatkan kemurkaaan untuknya sehingga hari dia bertemu Allah”. (Riwayat Malik dalam Muwata`). Satu undi sama dengan satu kalimat bahkan lebih, ianya boleh mengundang keredhaan Allah atau kemurkaannya.

S: Ciri-ciri calon yang patut seseorang pilih, apakah merujuk kepada kualiti calon, atau parti yang diwakili?

Dr. MAZA: Saya tidak bersetuju mengundi hanya berdasarkan jenama parti semata. Ini adalah cara fikir yang menghalang proses kemajuan negara. Akhirnya, rakyat menjadi fanatik parti dan tidak menggunakan lagi akal fikiran menilai siapakah yang diundinya. Jika semua pengundi berfikiran demikian maka tidak akan berlaku persaingan kualiti calon. Ini boleh menyebabkan ‘si bodoh’ atau ‘perasuah’ atau orang yang rendah moralnya akan terpilih dek kerana parti yang diwakilinya. Ini adalah cara fikir yang tidak berdaya saing dan jumud.

S: Tidakkah parti yang diwakili oleh seseorang mempunyai nilai kepada dirinya?

Dr. MAZA: Ya mungkin, tapi itu bukan segala-galanya. Tidak munasabah dalam negara yang rakyatnya berpelajaran lalu kita katakan kepada pengundi : “jangan guna akal fikiran anda, cukuplah dengan hanya melihat lambang atau jenama”. Ini pemikiran kanak-kanak tadika yang belum tahu mengeja dan membaca, lalu hanya bergantung kepada gambar-gambar yang dipapar. Jika itu cara fikir kita, elok kita buka pengundian kepada kanak-kanak bermula dari umur lima tahun. Mereka juga rakyat Malaysia. Yang penting mereka dapat mengenali lambang parti-parti yang diajar kepada mereka. Islam menyuruh diberikan amanah kepada sesiapa yang layak. Yang akan memikul amanah adalah orang, bukan parti. Parti itu terbentuk kerana wujudnya orang yang mendokong. Bukan wujud parti dulu, kemudian wujudnya orang. Wujudnya individu-individu dulu, kemudian baru mereka wujudkan parti. Jika orang tidak berkualiti, bagaimana hendak dikatakan parti itu berkualiti. Maka kempen saya: “pilihlah calon, bukan pilih parti”.

S: Apakah ini padangan agama?

Dr. MAZA: Bagi saya inilah sikap seseorang yang beragama. Bebas dari fanatik atau taklid buta tanpa menggunakan akal. Agama menyuruh kita berfikir. Sebab itu seperti mana yang kita tahu bahawa Nabi s.a.w sayangkan Abu Zar r.a. seorang sahabat baginda yang begitu soleh. Namun apabila Abu Zar meminta jawatan, baginda bersabda: "Wahai Abu Zar, sesungguhnya aku melihat engkau seorang yang lemah, sesungguhnya aku suka untuk engkau apa aku suka untuk diriku. Maka jangan engkau menjadi ketua ke atas dua orang dan jangan engkau uruskan harta anak yatim". (Riwayat Muslim). Jika berdasarkan kepada hubungan baik dengan Nabi s.a.w, maka Abu Zar patut dilantik. Namun dalam pemberian jawatan tidak ada soal kroni, atau fanatik hubungan kumpulan, sebaliknya soal kelayakan.

S: Jadi, apakah ciri-ciri yang sepatutnya seseorang calon itu diberikan undi untuknya?

Dr. MAZA: Secara umumnya mudah sahaja, mesti memiliki dua aspek. Seperti yang disebut dalam al-Quran: (maksudnya): “Sesungguhnya orang yang paling baik yang kamu ambil untuk bekerja ialah yang kuat lagi amanah” (Surah al-Qasas: 26). Maka pertama; al-Quwwah atau kuat, dalam bahasa kita kemampuan, kewibawaan, kemahiran yang menjadikan dia mampu memimpin. Kedua: al-Amanah; ada kesolehan peribadi yang akan memelihara dirinya dari melakukan penyelewengan dan pelanggaran hukum. Jika kedua-dua ciri ini kelihatan pada penampilan calon, dia patut kita pilih.

S: Jika kesemua calon ada ciri-ciri ini, bagaimana S.S Dr?

Dr. MAZA: Kita pilih sesiapa kita rasakan paling tinggi kualitinya kepimpinan dan amanahnya. Tentunya tidak sama. Jika kita rasa sama, maka tidak salah kita pilih yang mana-mana pun selagi kita yakin dia yang terbaik mampu menunaikan tugas.

S: Jika kesemua calon tidak memenuhi ciri-ciri ini?

Dr. MAZA: Kita pilih yang paling kurang mudaratnya dan paling ringan bahayanya. Pada zaman Nabi s.a.w., apabila Rum berperang dengan Parsi, orang-orang Islam lebih sukakan kemenangan Rum dibandingkan Parsi. Walaupun kedua-duanya bukan Islam, tetapi agama Kristian yang dianut oleh orang Rum menjadikan mereka lebih dekat kepada umat Islam dibanding ajaran Majusi menyembah api yang dianut oleh Parsi. Allah menyebut dalam Surah al-Rum ayat 4: (maksudnya) “Pada hari tersebut (kemenangan Rum ke atas Parsi, maka orang-orang mukmin bergembira”.

S: Bagaimanakah jika kita tidak kenal latar calon?

Dr. MAZA: Wajib kita kena kenal calon yang hendak kita undi. Firman Allah dalam Surah al-Isra ayat 36 (maksudnya): “Dan janganlah engkau mengikut apa yang engkau tidak mempunyai pengetahuan mengenainya; sesungguhnya pendengaran dan penglihatan serta hati, semua anggota-anggota itu tetap akan ditanya tentang apa yang dilakukannya”. Seseorang wajib mencari maklumat mengenai calon. Masa diberikan oleh pihak pilihanraya. Ini bukan zaman batu. Selidiki sebelum membuat undian. Jika kita gagal mengetahui siapakah yang berkualiti, dia sekurang-kurangnya hendaklah pastikan calon yang jika diundinya tidak memberi mudarat kepada masyarakat dan umat. Jangan undi yang ada rekod buruk.

S: Akhirnya, apakah pesanan S.S Dr. kepada rakyat, khususnya umat Islam?

Dr. MAZA: Sesungguhnya undi yang kita berikan kepada seseorang calon adalah perlambangan kepada diri kita sendiri. Jika kita seorang yang inginkan kebaikan, tentu kita akan memilih mereka yang mampu membawa kebaikan dan kesolehan. Begitulah sebaliknya. Jika kita memilih calon yang buruk dari segi kepimpinan dan agamanya, sedangkan ada yang baik, itulah identiti kita sebenarnya. Sabda Nabi s.a.w dalam hadis al-Imam Muslim: “Ruh-ruh itu adalah tentera yang dihimpunkan; apa yang mereka kenal, maka mereka berpadu. Apa yang mereka tidak kenal, maka mereka bertentangan”. Nilailah siapakah yang jiwa dan ruh kita cenderung kepadanya, maka itu nilai ruh kita. Maka, pilihlah berdasarkan calon, bukan parti!

THE DEATH OF BENAZIR BHUTTO

Benazir Bhutto was killed as she left a campaign rally in Rawalpindi, near the capital, Islamabad, where she had spoken to an audience of thousands ahead of next month's general election.

A member of her PPP party, Mohammad Zaman, told the BBC what happened next:

"The meeting went perfectly well. She delivered her speech, she came down the stage and got on the land-cruiser.

Map: Scene of the assassination

"She started coming out, we heard three [shots] fired, and after that the bomb blast went [off].

"And when I came down the road I saw there was loads and loads of injured. And I really thought that her vehicle was safe and left the place safely. I was hoping she would be OK."

A BBC correspondent at the rally, Shahzad Malik, said Ms Bhutto had got out of her car to wave to a group of supporters who were chanting slogans in her support near the main gate of the park where the rally had been held.

It was then that the bomber struck.

"I heard a blast. I rushed across to where so many people were lying injured and dead," our correspondent said.

 

Police officer Mohammed Shahid gave this account: "The man first fired at Bhutto's vehicle. She ducked and then he blew himself up."

Ms Bhutto was taken to hospital. But emergency surgeons failed to save her life.

Officials say Ms Bhutto was shot in the neck, but it is not clear if the shots, the blast, or a combination killed her.

Crying and hugging

There were emotional scenes outside the hospital, with some people crying and hugging each other, and others shouting "Dog, Musharraf, dog" - a reference to the Pakistani president.

The BBC's Haroon Rashid reported from outside the hospital that hundreds of her party workers were still gathered there hours after her death was announced.

He said that others were coming from inside the building urging them to go on the rampage to show their feelings.

"What good are you doing standing around here?" they were asking.

Not long afterwards, lights went out and no police were in view. Our correspondent says getting Ms Bhutto's body out of the hospital for her funeral will present a huge logistical challenge.

Mobs and fires

As news of the death spread, reports emerged of protests breaking out around Pakistan.

As well as trouble in Rawalpindi itself, where Bhutto supporters burned election posters belonging to the ruling party, there were demonstrations in the north-western border city of Peshawar, and in Karachi, where shopkeepers closed their businesses as thousands of people poured out onto the streets.

The unrest was most fierce in Ms Bhutto's home province, Sindh, and security forces were on red alert there, as in the rest of Pakistan.

Whereas, credit card, you have the credit limit and you can use it as you wish.But  you have to pay every month to the bank. So, Visa Debit Card is the best way to bring small amount of cash.

There are a few bank that offer Visa Debit Card, such as Public Bank Visa Electron Card and BSN Matrix Debit Card , from personal experience applying for Public Bank Visa Card, just forget it. After sending all the document required, not any of the staff contacted me for approval or confirmation. I thought my application is rejected until I read on LiewCF blog that you have to attached Pos Money around RM 50. It's not even stated in the website.

5 Blogging Mistakes

It happens so often it's almost like clockwork. Business blogs are started with high hopes and then disillusion sets in when the results aren't what they hoped for. A lot of it has to do with these simple but common mistakes.

Not Asking For Comments
Bloggers always agonize over the lack of comments. But the problem is not that people don't read the blog or don't want to comment but the blogger hasn't given the opportunity for readers to comment. Just like asking for people to order a product, you've got to coax people to spend their 3 or 4 precious minutes to comment on your blog. Ask for opinions. People love giving it. Ask for reader's experiences, input or help to accomplish something. Ask people to suggest something to you e.g. You're getting incorporated, ask people for suggestions, tips and recommendations. Asking also tells people you're open to suggestions and alternative views, further improving the image people may have of you.

Not Hosting On Their Own Domain
Give thought into your blog. Don't just jump on the bandwagon. You need to figure out where it's taking you before you hop on for the ride. Like any web site you may build, think of your blog as a long term marketing communication channel. A Blogspot or Typepad URL is not only unprofessional, you don't own it. Nothing against these blogging services; they're excellent tools but for long term marketing purposes, go for your own domain.
This way you control where you want to publish the blog to. Tomorrow, if you outgrow these services, you can easily export your blog to another tool, another host without losing too much established traffic. A domain is also easier for people to remember and easier for you to publicize.

Not Maximizing Their Blog Content
Many businesses quit blogging because they feel it's too much work. True, like everything else, you gotta work on a blog but you don't have to break your back over it. Sometimes you may have a paragraph here and there about a topic that just isn't big enough for an article. You know what? You're going to have many more of these impromptu thoughts and ideas – publish it to your blog. Later, you can come back and gather these paragraphs, compile them into a complete article or even a book.
That's only one way of maximizing your work. Have you written articles in the past? How about e-courses, audio transcripts or books that aren't in publication anymore? Recycle. Break them up and post them on your blog. In fact, if you have lot's of this type of content, you can even get your assistant to post them for you.

Publishing Too Often
I know what you're thinking. This sounds like complete the opposite of everything you've ever learnt about blogging. Truth is, the blogging world changes. What works yesterday may not today. This is one of them. There are countless blogs already jostling with you for your reader's time. More are being started by the day.
Who has the time to read so many blogs? It's come to a point people are forced to cherry pick the blogs they read. Even when they do read yours, you're not safe yet. If they can't keep up with your blogging pace, they'll drop you no matter how good your information is. Keep a balance. Feed information to your readers not dump a truckload on them. Every market is different. Some can tolerate higher number of posts a week, some can't. You should know your market and test accordingly.

Falling For Short Term Methods
Ah, this is my favorite. If you can have a favorite pet peeve that is. Every week, you hear about people dishing out the newest, coolest blogging tactic, best blogging tool that's sure to sky rocket your business to success or bull doze your way to the top search engine listings. Consider how any offer will help you advance your business two, five or tens years from now. Is it really in line with your marketing direction? If it isn't drop it. It also helps a lot if you can have a reliable source whom you can consult and help put things into perspective for you. One of the most powerful qualities of a blog has nothing to do with search engines, tagging or pinging. These things do have a place, but they aren't as powerful as the relationship opportunities between you and your customers.

Although these mistakes are common, they are also very easily rectified and don't cost much money. All of these suggestions are born out of my own trial and error and they've worked out nicely. Try it yourself.

Funny jokes from Sex Advice Blog

 So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband.

The 1st floor sign on the door reads:

Floor 1: These men have jobs.
The 2nd floor sign reads:

Floor 2: These men have Jobs and Love Kids.

The 3rd floor sign reads:

Floor 3: These men have Jobs, Love Kids and are extremely good looking.
“Wow,” she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the 4th floor and the sign reads:

Floor 4: These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and help with Housework.
“Oh, mercy me!” she exclaims, “I can hardly stand it!”
Still, she goes to the 5th floor and sign reads:

Floor 5: These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, help with Housework and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.
She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the 6th floor and the sign reads:

Floor 6: You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor.
There are no men on this floor.
This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please.
Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.

To avoid gender bias charges, the store’s owner opens a New Wives store just across the street.

The 1st first floor has wives that love sex.

The 2nd floor has wives that love sex and have money.

The 3rd,4th, 5th and 6th floors have never been visited
