Eh rupanya dah 3 kali aku beraya tanpa keluarga di sisi. Yang pertama, ketika di Perth 2 tahun lepas. Aku membuat keputusan yang tidak masuk akal - balik lewat untuk merasa beraya di perantauan. Beraya bersama Halim. Cukup seronok sebab dapat pengalaman baru...
Raya kedua pula, di Dublin. Tiba di Malaysia Hall agak lambat, tapi dapat juga tempat untuk solat sunat Aidilfitri, itu pun setelah menyelit-nyelit antara saf-saf. Meriah juga, tetapi agak lain berbanding tahun lepas, mungkin tahun ini banyak rakan-rakan senasib.
Raya ketiga, paling lain sekali. Aku pun tidak tahu kenapa. Agaknya kerinduan terhadap keluarga sedikit sebanyak merencatkan sel-sel otak aku. Heh. Walaubagaimanapun, raya tahun ini pada pendapat aku, paling meriah sebab banyak menziarahi kenalan serta senior dan super senior yang boleh dianggap sebagai keluarga di sini.
Buat bonda & ayahanda sekeluarga, Salam Aidilfitri.
...
Hmmm... timbunan kerja semakin bertambah. Al maklumlah peperiksaan bakal kunjung tiba. Kadang-kadang rasa banyak lah pula yang ditelaah. Alahai...
Minggu lepas, bersua dengan rakan yang sedang menuntut di tahun 3. Tiba-tiba tersembul soalan dari dia : What does Islam says about violence? Aku menjawab : That's a very broad. How can I go about on that? Setelah beberapa detik dia memperincikan apa-apa yang hendak ditanya, aku cuba menjawab beberapa soalan dengan seberapa yang aku mampu. Ia berkenaaan jihad, terrorisma, dan beberapa isu semasa misalnya pembunuhan Margaret Hasan. Di akhir perbualan, dia rupanya hendak mengajak ke majlis perbincangannya Jumaat nanti. Ada perbincangan sihat katanya, bertajuk : Can violence be justified?
Begitulah suasana di sini. Memang banyak perbualan sebegitu. Harap tak disia-siakan begitu saja. Adakalanya benar-benar menguji kesabaran, kerana perbincangan hendak disertai dengan niat yang ikhlas. Tanpanya, tiada manfaat yang boleh digarap. Buang air liur saja dek masing-masing punya fiil. Beberapa kali juga terjumpa manusia semacam itu. Asyik nak undermine orang. Jadi bertikam lidah pula.
"Don't tell me that a crazy named Muhammad has come up with a so-called Holy Koran!"
"Please, do you think I'm buying it? These guys, are very much like him, beat their wife, chop hands and do all other crazy stuff..."
Itulah sampel-sampel dari bicara yang tidak ikhlas. Tiada saling hormat menghormati. Buang masa aku saja melayan orang sebegini.
Hmmm... aku pun bukannya banyak ilmu. Apa yang kita mampu buat, kita buat, tak begitu?
...
Oh yes, after the ISOC meeting, Alhamdulillah I feel much better now. It is good to see people working together for good cause, isn't it? More people means lesser headache. Why? Because I feel so relieved seeing many brothers and sisters showing their enthusiasism on doing the work. It is just sometimes when things are getting blurry, there are people that willing to shed some light to make things clear. Jazakallah to those people...
Hmmm... now the work has to commence from now : Palestine Appeal, Islamic Awareness Week, End The Occupation Conference.
Wallahu'alam.
Syawal I
Syawal dah tiba... now what? Fikirkanlah ya?
Oh ya, mahu promosi sedikit :
Perhimpunan Ukhuwwah Islamiyyah Seluruh Ireland PUISI 2004 - http://www.gundala.com/puisi2004
Winter Retreat - http://www.winter-retreat.com
...
Raya tahun ini lebih meriah? Agakla. Mana takya, ratusan Dubliners bertakbir & bertahmid di Malaysia Hall Dublin pada pagi 1 Syawal. Sayu...
Setelah selesai khutbah Aidilfitri dan ucapan terakhir Mr Ambassador kita, Datuk Ali, Dubliners yang berketi laksa banyaknya 'menyerang' nasi impit, lodeh, rendang serta kuih-muih yang terhidang. Terima kasih Cikgu Sulaiman! Semoga jasamu Allah balas banyak-banyak.
Wallahualam.
Ramadan III
Saban hari kami keresahan menunggu keputusan bila jatuhnya 1 Syawal. Dalam pukul 5.30 petang Jumaat lepas, berderit-derit bunyi handphone dek pesanan teks yang lebih kurang bunyinya begini:
"Saya mewakili Imam Masjid Clonskeagh (atau Slongskis menurut sebutan Jinggo), mengisytiharkan, bahawa Hari Raya Aidilfitri jatuh pada Sabtu, 13 November 2004 (dengan nada Penyimpan Mohor Besar Raja-raja)."
Terus bersemangat nak bertakbir...
Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar
La ilaha Illahu Wallahu Akbar
Allahu akbar Walillahil Hamd
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri
Maaf Zahir & Batin

Ramadan Mubarak II
//Berwudhu di Howth - Di mana bumi dipijak, di situ tempat kita boleh solat...
Ramadan dah pun tiba ke 10 malam yang terakhir. Cepat sungguh masa berlalu...
Ooppss dah lambat untuk terawih nih. Beransur dulu ya!
Ramadan Mubarak
Tup tup, pejam celik, pejam celik, Ramadan menjelma kembali. Kenapa? Tak percaya?
Tahun ini rasa lain benar dari Ramadan sebelumnya. Tahun lepas lain. Tahun sebelumnya lain. Semasa di sekolah? Lain. Pada aku, lain tak lainnya Ramadan ini bergantung pada empunya diri.
Bulan Ramadan ini bolehlah dianalogikan sebagai suatu pondok di tepi jalan. Pondok ini sangat istimewa. Ada heater, air conditioner, dan segala kemudahan. Bahkan, ada lagi orang yang hidangkan makanan untuk sesiapa yang tumpang berteduh. Dengan kemudahan sebegitu, sudah tentu nak lepak di situ pun mudah. Tak kena hujan, tak kena panas. Nyaman sentiasa. Tenang dirasa.
Tapi, ada pula orang yang dalam perjalanan, dia rasa tak nak singgah pula. Ish. Gila apa? Pondok berteduh serba lengkap. Tak kena rugi namanya kalau tak nak menumpang sebentar. Internet pun ada. Jadi, nak check email dan surfing pun boleh. Ishh ishh rugi. Memang buta, tak pun dah mati saraf-sarafnya. Sanggup dia bersusah payah, berbasahan dek hujan, berpeluh keringat kepanasan, walaupun pondok berteduh itu depan matanya sahaja. Rugi rugi...
Ramadan oh Ramadan. Banyakkan pahala kurangkan dosa. Bukan bermaksud sebulan dalam keinsafan, selepas itu lain pula ceritanya. Bukankah hipokrit namanya itu?
...
I just miss the atmosphere I had when I break my fast at Dublin Mosque yesterday (and almost everyday!). Its so cosy to be with people from all walks of life. Sometimes I don't even know them, but they keep being friendly with me all the time. It is the chatter that does the magic. It really heals the stress, not to mention cuts & bruises I have after surviving from the hustle and bustle of the day. What a relieve!
During the breakfast, we sit cross-legged encircling a tray of rice and tandoori. The joy and the merry are there, and you couldn't get the chance to experience it elsewhere I presume. I wish I could be in the place like this forever!
After it's all over, I affirm that all these are truly the blessing of Ramadan. It is just the matter making the full use of it. And that includes filling up empty stomach eh? After all, It is for our own good isn't it?
...
Sudah 3 minggu di first med. Huh. Rasa penuh sentiasa kepala. Itu ini begitu begini. Life kene goes on. Tanggungjawab kena laksanakan. Amanah wajib digenggam erat. Tugas kenalah setelkan...
Selamat Memanfaatkan Ramadan.
Selamat Merindui Ramadan.
Selamat Tidak Terlalu Ghairah Untuk Aidilfitri.
Wallahu'alam.

Idealistic, Realistic?
Sometimes it's really to see the line between these two. That's why some people definitely will falter. But that's not the reason why we are so hesitant on making a progress, is it?
Just give it a go, and pray for the best. Should you bounce off the wall, let your mind ponder about doing it in again in different tactics. Maybe this time, you will deliver the result Insya Allah.
...
Ketibaan pelajar-pelajar baru semalam cukup melegakan hati. Alhamdulillah semuanya selamat, berkat doa semua. Sedang aku dikolej, aku teringat adanya taklimat anjuran pelajar-pelajar yang tua... hmmm.
Bagi pelajar baru di sini, aku rasa inilah saat bermulanya kehidupan. Tidak lupa diriku yang bakal menjadi penuntut tahun pertama di sini - satu lagi permulaan baru.

Dreaming of Morocco
Yesterday I dreamt about having a tour in Morocco. Although I could never recall the glimpse of what I saw in the dream, yet I could feel the urge of going there until now. Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria... hmmm...
Ibnuhazam, Insya Allah I'll pay you a visit while you're still there.

We are so sorry for 9-11
We are so Sorry for 9-11
September 11, 2004
By Kamal Nawash
This September 11 marks the third unforgettable anniversary of the worst mass murder in American history.
After September 11, many in the Muslim world chose denial and hallucination rather than face up to the sad fact that Muslims perpetrated the 9-11 terrorist acts and that we have an enormous problem with extremism and support for terrorism. Many Muslims, including religious leaders, and ?intellectuals? blamed 9-11 on a Jewish conspiracy and went as far as fabricating a tale that 4000 Jews did not show up for work in the World Trade Center on 9-11. Yet others blamed 9-11 on an American right wing conspiracy or the U.S. Government which allegedly wanted an excuse to invade Iraq and ?steal? Iraqi oil.
After numerous admissions of guilt by Bin Laden and numerous corroborating admissions by captured top level Al-Qaida operatives, we wonder, does the Muslim leadership have the dignity and courage to apologize for 9-11? If not 9-11, will we apologize for the murder of school children in Russia? If not Russia, will we apologize for the train bombings in Madrid, Spain? If not Spain, will we apologize for suicide bombings in buses, restaurants and other public places? If not suicide bombings, will we apologize for the barbaric beheadings of human beings? If not beheadings, will we apologize for the rape and murder of thousands of innocent people in Darfour? If not Darfour, will we apologize for the blowing up of two Russian planes by Muslim women? What will we apologize for? What will it take for Muslims to realize that those who commit mass murder in the name of Islam are not just a few fringe elements? What will it take for Muslims to realize that we are facing a crisis that is more deadly than the Aids epidemic? What will it take for Muslims to realize that there is a large evil movement that is turning what was a peaceful religion into a cult?
Will Muslims wake up before it is too late? Or will we continue blaming the Jews and an imaginary Jewish conspiracy? The blaming of all Muslim problems on Jews is a cancer that is destroying Muslim society from within and it must stop.
Muslims must look inward and put a stop to many of our religious leaders who spend most of their sermons teaching hatred, intolerance and violent jihad. We should not be afraid to admit that as Muslims we have a problem with violent extremism. We should not be afraid to admit that so many of our religious leaders belong behind bars and not behind a pulpit. Only moderate Muslims can challenge and defeat extremist Muslims. We can no longer afford to be silent. If we remain silent to the extremism within our community then we should not expect anyone to listen to us when we complain of stereotyping and discrimination by non-Muslims; we should not be surprised when the world treats all of us as terrorists; we should not be surprised when we are profiled at airports. Simply put, not only do Muslims need to join the war against terror, we need to take the lead in this war.
As to apologizing, we will no longer wait for our religious leaders and ?intellectuals? to do the right thing. Instead, we will start by apologizing for 9-11.
We are so sorry that 3000 people were murdered in our name. We will never forget the sight of people jumping from two of the highest buildings in the world hoping against hope that if they moved their arms fast enough that they may fly and survive a certain death from burning.
We are sorry for blaming 9-11 on a Jewish or right wing conspiracy.
We are so sorry for the murder of more than three hundred school children and adults in Russia.
We are so sorry for the murder of train passengers in Spain. We are so sorry for all the victims of suicide bombings.
We are so sorry for the beheadings, abductions, rapes, violent Jihad and all the atrocities committed by Muslims around the world.
We are so sorry for a religious education that raised killers rather than train people to do good in the world.
We are sorry that we did not take the time to teach our children tolerance and respect for other people.
We are so sorry for not rising up against the dictators who have ruled the Muslim world for decades.
We are so sorry for allowing corruption to spread so fast and so deep in the Muslim world that many of our youth lost hope.
We are so sorry for allowing our religious leaders to relegate women to the status of forth class citizens at best and sub-humans at worse.
We are so sorry.
postscriptum: Few days beforehand, there was a movie (not a documentary) shown : The Hamburg Cell - a so-called behind-the-scene of September 11 tragedy. Hmmm... too much Hollywood I suppose.

5 guys, 2 universities and 1 happy place : Dublin
Alhamdulillah, the first batch of the juniors are here now. There are 2 groups - one bound for NUI Galway, and the rest for UCD. Glad to meet Nuzul too, who was my boss (he's the top guy in co-op) in school. The best news is - Haikal, Syafiq, and Hafis will be flying off to Dublin as well! Man, it is small world after all isn't it? 5 people in Dublin, hmmm maybe that a new record I would say.
Finally I'm officially moved to my new home few minutes away from here. Phew!
Hmmm teringat ucapan org MSD Eire tadi. Kerajaan belanja juta-juta utk hantar pelajar ke sini. Oleh sebab nak hantar punya pasal, jalan kat kampung tak boleh tar, sekolah lambat siap, buku teks tak cukup, dll; sebab the goverment believes education is the essence of nation development. In our position, we know that we're merely pawns in this whole game, but bear in mind we're a part of a gargantuan jigsaw puzzle. I suppose I'm off the tangent now... my bad!
Okay... ade hal at 10.00 am pagi nanti. It is 20 minutes to 2 am...

A Day Like Another
Hmmm... didn't feel good for the whole day. Maybe dehydration really takes a toll on me. Also disappointed for not able to attend an important event today too. Sigh. So I took couples of Panadol to relieve some headache. Hopefully I'll get better soon, by grace of Allah.
More and more Dubliners are back here: Ipin, Azli, Azlan, and today probably Izzuan and Zulfakar will be here by tomorrow noon. I reckon more juniors are flying here too this week. Can't wait to fetch those freshers out at the airport!
Being full time coach potato here, I spent some time reading Nil Mengalir Songsang in the morning. It is an excellent masterpiece of Zaid Akhtar indeed. Read it here.
