reflection knocks 4: agama dan impossibility manusia

Assalamualaikum :)




---


Somehow, soalan yang ditanya sebulan lepas, hari ini ditanya kembali. Kali ini, kita yang bertanya pada diri? Is it that easy? Fading feelings.


Bila difikir lama-lama, mungkinlah. Betapa mudahnya hati manusia ni untuk dibolak-balikkan. Mungkin sebab itulah.


Jadi, their survival may not be due to unfading feelings, tapi mungkin sebab both make it works. Both try to make sure it works and maintain that. Hmm ni dunia luar betul. Yang kita, heh hal budak-budak kecik je. Still, whatever it is, no matter how small and insignificant it seems, these small things affects life. Thus, shaping you. Me. Us.


Conclusion untuk ini? Entah, still under maintenance. For now, maybe we need to consider about making up again. Untuk kali ke beberapa ratus, selamanya haha.

Khayalan tingkat tinggi, heh. So cerita kanak-kanak. So how are you? Okay bye.

So one day, terjadilah suatu conversation yang sepatutnya short and sweet tapi turns out to be a bit persistent and complicated. Maka tersentaklah semua pihak. Ehh tapi ada dua pihak je sebenarnya haha eh tiga -- me, me!


Kenapa jadi complicated? Sebab isunya pasal agama. Sensitif. One side memula just want to make the other party to think and reflect on some words about Islam, which later dragged into the issue of converting into Islam. Ehem too fast, too much pressure, too persistent and too much. *Cing* (what did i do at that moment? Too shocked to pause that conversation)


So then, of course, the other party felt offended and replied (somewhere, indirectly) regarding that matter. Which later invited several responses and I (somehow, unintentionally) read them. And felt sad. Not angry, just sad. Because that conversation ignites some religious hatred. Perhaps because I wasn't expecting such responses. And when it happened, ouch i cried (literally).



A friend once said, "Kita sebenarnya racist, tapi sopan."

Samalah dengan religion mungkin :(



Quoting one site about this -



" Some Muslims have also developed misinterpretations on other religions as well. These misconceptions have also produced many crimes of hatred and prejudice against non-Muslims.




But it is not the misinterpretations that create the hatred among us, it is the ignorance and lack of tolerance of other religions. As illogical as at it may seem, many people tend to believe anything that is portrayed to them and use that misinterpretation to attack or hurt innocent people.




It is time that people around the world take the time to study other religions and realize how similar we actually are. Outwardly, religions may seem significantly different through rituals and practices. However, the heart of every religion has the same message.




It is essential that we discover that. Religion was intended to unite humans, but instead it has been used to segregate us. We cannot allow this discrimination to flow in our society any longer. Healing can begin if Muslims and non-Muslims become aware about these stereotypes and view each other as brothers, sisters, and friends. "


For me, takpelah. Hidayah tu bukan milik kita. If Allah wills it, then it will be la. Kita, jaga diri baik-baik and try to be the best version of Muslim la kalau mampu (which honestly now macam jauuuuh je lagi). Try faham agama orang dan make it easy for others to understand agama kita jugakla. No paksa-paksa, kalau hidayah tu nak dimasukkan dalam hati dia, adalah nanti insyaAllah. Toleransi sesama kawan dalam hal agama dan know our limit jugaklah (sebab kita pun masih cuba bertatih nak jadi baik haha asyik jatuh je). Hmm serius betul.



Tak nak cakap dah.

Jalan-jalan tadi dengan harapan boleh turunkan berat badan secara mendadak haha, lepas tu penat lulz dan terus terduduk di so-called playground.


Satu anak foreigner yang mungkin dah pandai cakap melayu ajak sorang adik melayu ni main.


"You go first." "Saya nak main bola." "Jom."


Kawan melayu dia ni ikut dan enjoy je main. Dia naik buai, si kawan dia tolak. Cuba monkey bars, sama-sama main dan jatuh. Comelnya.


Waktu kecik, nak main dengan sesiapa pun boleh. Takde gaduh pasal racism atau religion (lulz tak move on lagi rupanya haha maafin). Nak lompat ke lari ke, semua mampu. Takde halangan, semua seems possible. Dan kitalah orang yang hebat yang datanglah apa sekalipun, kita boleh go through.


Bila besar, ini susah. Ini tak mampu, impossible. Hah lemah dah kita.


Quoting surgeon R quoting his favourite Quran translation kot, "Human are the best creation of Allah."





Indeed, We have created the human being upon the best of forms. Then we reduced him to the lowest of the low, except those who believe and do good, for they shall have an unending reward. So who henceforth will give the lie to you about the judgment? Is not Allah the Best of Judges? [Sūrah al-Tīn: 4-8]



Conclusion?

Hmm entah, fikir lah sendiri, wahai insan yang selalu nak give up dan rasa tak boleh dan tak mampu dan rasa kita paling last dalam hidup ni. Jangan putus asa dalam hayat (uuu, it reminds me of that '5Hayat' sobs) dan jangan lupa self-reflection tu. Okay sayounara.
