Nik Aziz mahu jumpa mufti Perak

Mac 8, 11 11:15am

Kongsi 91

Mursyidul Am PAS, Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat telah menghantar surat rasmi menyatakan hasrat mahu bertemu dengan mufti Perak, Tan Sri Harussani Zakaria.

Surat yang dihantar pagi tadi itu antara lain mahu mufti Perak itu menjelaskan kenyataannya sebelum ini yang mendakwa Nik Aziz yzng juga menteri besar Kelantan, pernah berkata 'undi PAS masuk syurga'.

Tulisan mufti itu disiarkan oleh akhbar Mingguan Malaysia 6 Mac lalu, iaitu hari pengundian bagi pilihan raya kecil dewan undangan negeri Kerdau dan Merlimau.

"Hari ini saya telah menghantar surat rasmi kepada sohibus samahah Tan Sri Harussani, mufti Perak memohon penjelasan di atas tulisan beliau di dalam Mingguan Malaysia 6 Mac 2011.

"Saya memohon supaya beliau menjelaskan bilakah saya menyatakan bahawa undi PAS masuk syurga," katanya melalui Facebook hari ini.

Kedua-dua tokoh itu sering bercanggah pendapat berhubung isu agama dan jika pertemuan yang dicadangkan itu menjadi kenyataan, ini adalah kali pertama berlaku mereka akan duduk semeja.

Beri respon

"Semoga beliau memberikan respon,"kata Nik Aziz lagi.

Semalam, Dewan Pemuda PAS Perak juga telah menghantar surat jemputan kepada Harussani berhubung perkara yang sama.

Mereka menawarkan diri untuk menjadi orang tengah bagi menjayakan pertemuan tersebut.

Menurut Pemuda PAS Perak, sudah tiba masanya untuk kedua-dua tokoh itu bersemuka dengan cara yang lebih terhormat dan beradab bagi menjernihkan keadaan dan menyelesaikan kemelut yang hanya merugikan umat Islam.

Mereka berpendapat, dengan menghormati ilmu Harussani, pihaknya merasakan kaedah itu adalah yang terbaik bagi menidakkan semua pandangan yang telah dikemukakan secara terbuka.

Pemuda PAS Perak juga sebelum ini antara yang tidak senang dengan beberapa pandangan mufti itu khususnya dalam isu ancak membabitkan Menteri Besar Perak, Datuk Seri Zambry Abd Kadir.

Between a rock and a hard place..

For once , a 'Minister or his deputy is actually talking sense instead of talking thru his small orifice at the rear end. And as usual the 'public servant' is at the receiving end,which i am sure, acted on the behest of his political masters.... article below courtesy of Malaysiakini.

P'raya kampus: Timbalan menteri jumpa pelajar UPM

Timbalan Menteri Pengajian Tinggi, Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah hari ini mengadakan pertemuan berasingan dua kumpulan mahasiwa Universiti Putra Malaysia berhubung isu berbangkit dalam pilihan raya kampus di UPM Isnin lalu. Dua kumpulan mahasiswa tersebut ialah kumpulan Pro-Aspirasi UPM dan Persatuan Mahasiswa Islam UPM.

Dalam satu kenyataan, Saifuddin berkata, dalam kedua-dua pertemuan tersebut beliau menekankan bahawa pilihan raya kampus (PRK) seharusnya dijadikan medan terbaik memberikan pendidikan politik dan demokrasi kepada mahasiswa.

Menurutnya, pendidikan politik dan demokrasi seharusnya merintis ke arah amalan demokrasi yang lebih matang di negara ini.

"Dalam konteks PRK, Kementerian Pengajian Tinggi (KPT) berkecuali dan tidak memihak kepada mana-mana kumpulan mahasiswa atau mana-mana individu yang bertanding," tegasnya.

KPT juga, tambahnya, mahu PRK menjadi gelanggang politik yang sihat dan menyuburkan idealisme mahasiswa; dijalankan dengan, licin, telus dan adil; serta meningkatkan partisipasi mahasiswa dalam proses tersebut.

"Berhubung dengan isu di UPM, saya telah menghubungi Naib Canselor, Prof Dato' Ir. Dr Radin Umar Radin Sohadi pada pagi 23 Februari 2011, apabila dimaklumkan bahawa kemenangan sekumpulan mahasiswa dalam PRK (pada 22 Februari 2011) telah dibatalkan oleh pihak universiti atas alasan yang tidak munasabah.

"Saya ingin ulangi kenyataan saya sebelum ini, bahawa saya “tidak mengarahkan” Naib Canselor, sebaliknya “memberi pandangan” kepada pihak universiti tentang cara terbaik mengatasi isu tersebut.

"Pada saya, alasan membatalkan kemenangan sekumpulan mahasiswa itu tidak wajar kerana:

"Alasannya ialah kumpulan tersebut berkempen secara kumpulan. Saya anggap alasan ini tidak munasabah kerana umum tahu bahawa pihak yang membuat bantahan itu sendiri adalah sebuah kumpulan juga. Ini diakui sendiri oleh seorang daripadanya dalam perbincangannya dengan saya hari ini.

"Pembatalan itu dibuat tanpa memberi peluang pihak yang dibatalkan itu untuk membela diri.

"Jika berlaku pembatalan atas alasan yang tidak munasabah ini, saya bimbang kita akan dilabelkan sama seperti Burma yang tidak mengiktiraf kemenangan Parti Liga Demokrasi Kebangsaan pimpinan Aun San Su Kyi dalam pilihanraya pada 1990, atau AS, EU dan Israel yang tidak mengiktiraf kemenangan Hamas dalam pilihanraya Palestin pada 2006.

"Saya memuji kesediaan dan keterbukaan naib canselor UPM bertemu
dan mendengar aduan kelompok mahasiswa yang tidak berpuas hati dengan keputusan tersebut. Malah keterbukaan beliau telah berjaya menyelesaikan isu tersebut dengan baik," tegasnya.

Bagaimanapun, katanya, beliau kesal kerana terdapat juga sesuatu permintaan sekumpulan mahasiswa yang diinginkan daripada pegawai tertentu, tidak dilayan sehingga menyebabkan insiden yang tidak diingini berlaku.

"Saya bukan menyokong permintaan mahasiswa itu, saya cuma kesal ia tidak dilayan.

"Saya juga kesal dan tidak bersetuju dengan tindakan sekumpulan mahasiswa yang menyebabkan kerosakan harta benda awam.

"Pun begitu, saya percaya jika permintaan kumpulan tersebut dilayan, maka insiden tersebut mungkin tidak akan berlaku," tegasnya.

Semalam, pintu kaca bangunan pentadbiran UPM yang menempatkan pejabat Timbalan Naib Canselor Hal Ehwal Pelajar (HEP) Prof Dr Mohd Fauzi Ramlan, pecah selepas dirempuh sekumpulan mahasiswa pro-M.

Mereka dilaporkan bertindak demikian selepas Dr Mohd Fauzi enggan memberikan penjelasan mengapa kemenangan calon mereka dalam pilihan raya kampus itu kelmarin dibatalkan. Difahamkan mereka berkumpul di bangunan selama 19 jam - sejak jam 10 malam kelmarin.

Ia ekoran keputusan pentadbiran universiti menarik balik pembatalan kemenangan 11 calon pro-M selepas menolak tiga bantahan kerana "tidak berasas disebabkan di luar skop pemilihan Majlis Perwakilan Pelajar (MPP) UPM 2011 dan kesalahan teknikal".

TNC HEP kemudian memanggil beberapa wakil pelajar untuk berbincang dan beliau bersetuju untuk mengadakan perbincangan lanjutan dengannya mereka pagi ini.

Bagaimanapun, ia dibatalkan atas permintaan pro-M 'kerana susana masih panas'.

Sebaliknya, mereka mencadangkan pertemuan itu diadakan selepas solat Jumaat esok di Kolej Kediaman 13.

Menurutnya, cadangan tersebut telah dimaklumkan kepada pegawai TNC HEP dan telah dipersetujui.

Antara yang akan dibincangkan, katanya, adalah mengenai cadangan mereka berhubung penambahbaikan pilihan raya kampus.

Harakahdaily: Apa yang menyebabkan saudara Bob terdorong untuk memilih dan menyertai PAS?

Bob Lokman: Sebab saya rasa ada masalah dengan sistem kehidupan. Saya nak mendidik anak saya dengan jalan Islam tetapi dia ada masalah dengan sistem persekolahan, sistem pergaulan, dan sistem masyarakat.

Bila saya di rumah suruh dia sembahyang, di luar ada kumpulan yang suruh dia buat benda lagha. Masa saya muda dulu saya tak sedar, dan itu berlaku pada anak saya sekarang, dan sekarang sara rasa tanggungjawab pada anak.

Tengok anak kita tidak menjadikan Allah nombor satu... dia duk ikut ‘rakyat didahulukan pencapaian diutamakan’, pada hal Allah nombor satu, takwa diutamakan tapi anak-kita tak tahu.

And 'Bob Lokman' continued ~ 'Saya serahkan rezeki saya bulat-bulat pada Allah, yang penting saya dapat selamatkan kehidupan anak saya di dunia dan saya tak masuk neraka," kata Bob Lokman.'

My sons & daughters , learn a thing or two from brutha 'Bob Lokman' and not 'Bob da Builder' here ... :D

First confession and first impression of a parish priest

Priest’s Retirement Dinner courtesy of 'Kosong cafe'

A Priest was being honored at his retirement dinner after 25 years in the parish. A leading local politician and member of the congregation was chosen to make the presentation and to give a little speech at the dinner.

However, since the politician was delayed, the Priest decided to say his own few words while they waited:

‘I got my first impression of the parish from the first confession I heard here. I thought I had been assigned to a terrible place The very first person who entered my confessional told me he had stolen a television set and, when questioned by the police, was able to lie his way out of it. He had stolen money from his parents, embezzled from his employer, had an affair with his boss's wife, taken illegal drugs and gave VD to his sister. I was appalled. But as the days went, on I learned that my people were not all like that and I had, indeed, come to a fine parish full of good and loving people’.

Just as the Priest finished his talk, the politician arrived full of apologies at being late. He immediately began to make the presentation and gave his talk:

‘I’ll never forget the first day our parish Priest arrived, said the politician’. ‘In fact, I had the honor of being the first person to go to him for confession...’

Who's afraid of the Muslim Brothers?

"Islamism" has been sending jitters through Western political corridors over recent years readily aided and abetted by Arab autocrats who have exaggerated and harnessed the "Islamist" threat to prolong their iron-fisted rule. In the case of Egypt, the biggest bogeyman in this long-running battle over political supremacy with the state is the Muslim Brotherhood (the Ikhwan al-Muslimun) whose influence extends across the Arab and Islamic world. With the Middle East and North Africa currently convulsed by popular uprisings against political repression, the Muslim Brotherhood has been thrust into the limelight, not only by those seeking a better insight into the origins and goals of the movement as they try to peer into Egypt's future, but also by those whose entire raison d'etre consists of demonising the Ikhwan for ulterior political ends. "I'm fed up" of ruling Egypt, complained Hosni Mubarak to an American news channel on February 4 as protests against his 30-year presidency accelerated. "But if I resign now, there will be chaos. And I'm afraid the Muslim Brotherhood will take over," he warned. In a couple of short sentences, Mubarak wonderfully encapsulated the fear that his regime has generated over three decades in order to maintain control. With little concern for the sentiments of his people, Mubarak played directly to the fears of his Western backers: Either support my despotism, whatever its limitations, he was saying, or face having to deal with the "Islamists". While leaders in the US and the EU stutter over how to respond to the new realities in the region, unfortunately for Mubarak, the people of Egypt are refusing to buy into his fear-mongering. The Muslim Brotherhood - whether Mubarak's regime and his backers like it or not - is part and parcel of Egyptian society. The Ikhwan is the "father" of Islamic political activism, tracing its roots back to 1928 when it emerged as a movement advocating a return to Islamic morals. Its early political activism was against British rule in Egypt when it opposed the Westernisation of the country. While its formative years were devoted to overcoming imperialism, its history has been marked by challenges to the political status quo and, thus, to fending off state repression. The Muslim Brotherhood has alternately been tolerated, outlawed, its leaders assassinated and/or executed. Despite the suppression, its popularity has grown owing mainly to a network of medical, legal, social and charitable services that it continues to provide. Where the state has failed Egyptians, the Ikhwan has helped prop up peoples' lives. Such is its influence that it has spawned offshoots in Algeria, Tunisia, Sudan, Libya and Somalia in Africa, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine and Israel in the Levant, across the Gulf States and further afield in places such as Pakistan. Misconceptions in the West about the movement do not detract from the Brotherhood's popular following in Egypt and beyond. Milestones to where? One of the most seminal works to emanate from the ranks of the Ikhwan, one which led the Egyptian regime at the time to clamp down massively against the movement, was Milestones, written by a powerful Brotherhood ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, in 1964. The publication of Qutb's book, which called for the reinstatement of Sharia as the basis of Egyptian law and for the overthrow of what he labelled the "Jahili" (i.e. pre-Islamic) system prevalent in the country, led to his execution. That Milestones is today considered the principal reference book for a myriad of armed Islamic groups across the world is testament to its influence. The book was used to discredit the entire Muslim Brotherhood with accusations that it advocated the violent overthrow of secular regimes. Anti-Ikhwan proponents felt little need to explain the circumstances under which Qutb penned his treatise: The fact that he was utterly disillusioned with the prevailing system after being subjected to years of solitary confinement and torture for his political beliefs made little difference to his opponents who sought to characterise his rejectionism as representative of Islamic political movements in their entirety. Despite proclaiming to be a bottom-up "reformist" movement and eschewing violence, the charge of extremism has subsequently hung over the Brotherhood. Given the historical antipathy of the Ikhwan to the West, furthermore, Western governments have easily bought into the Egyptian regime's claims that the movement is a threat to their way of life. The old fears of, and tricks against, the Ikhwan are once again being employed as the most organised challenger to Mubarak's despotism joins (not leads) protesters in calling for his removal. Although depicted as a regressive movement, the Brotherhood's membership is anything but unenlightened. The top tier of the movement is made up of doctors, lawyers, engineers and teachers, or the crème de la crème of the Egyptian middle class. The Ikhwan's social activism is derived from its members' ability to live and breathe the problems that average Egyptians face. It is essentially a grassroots movement campaigning for the betterment of Egyptian society. That the movement gained an impressive 88 seats in the 2005 parliamentary election, or 20 per cent of the total, despite widespread electoral fraud (in 2010 it lost all its seats after Mubarak's National Democratic Party massively rigged the election once more, this time leaving nothing to chance) speaks volumes about its popularity. Even in districts that are predominantly Christian, many voters opted to back the Ikhwan against the regime. Christian protesters are as resolute against Mubarak's dictatorship as their Muslim counterparts and many have expressed little worry about the Muslim Brotherhood despite the fear perpetuated by the regime. In talks with senior US officials in 2006, the newly-appointed Egyptian vice-president, Omar Suleiman, termed the Ikhwan's parliamentary success in 2005 "unfortunate". Private US cables released by Wikileaks (from where the previous quote was taken) reveal starkly the obstacles that the Brotherhood has faced under Mubarak. Opponents of the movement will continue to stoke fears about its apparent "clandestine" motives. The cry of "one man, one vote, one time" will be heard loudly and relentlessly from those seeking to deny the Brotherhood a role in Egypt's political future. This is one scare tactic, however, that the people of Egypt will not fall for. Political Islam is a force with strong roots in the country and in the wider Islamic world and will continue to remain so. Algeria set a precedent in the early 1990s of the levels to which opponents of Islamic movements will sink to deny them a political role. A brutal civil war was the cost of voting for the Islamic Salvation Front back then. The people of Palestine are similarly being ostracised by the "international community" for voting in Hamas, an offshoot of the Ikhwan. However, the people of Egypt, and only the people of Egypt, will decide what part the Muslim Brotherhood will play in Egypt's future development. What will its detractors do in response? Scream, shout, curse and maybe try to prevent such an eventuality, if recent history is any guide. Mohammed Khan is a political analyst based in the UAE.
