JACK (age 3) was watching his Mom breast-feeding his new baby sister. After a while he asked: 'Mom why have you got two? Is one for hot and one for cold milk?'

MELANIE (age 5) asked her Granny how old she was. Granny replied she was so old she didn't remember any more. Melanie said, 'If you don't remember you must look in the back of your panties. Mine say five to six.'

STEVEN (age 3) hugged and kissed his Mom good night. 'I love you so much that when you die I'm going to bury you outside my bedroom window.'

BRITTANY (age 4) had an ear ache and wanted a pain killer. She tried in vain to take the lid off the bottle. Seeing her frustration, her Mom explained it was a child-proof cap and she'd have to open it for her. Eyes wide with wonder, the little girl asked: 'How does it know it's me?'

This particular Sunday sermon...'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust...' He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

Sudirman - Nama Seindah Wajah

2009-08-04T13:56:00.002+08:00

Sebuah lagu yang cukup popular pada zaman 80'an dari Allahyarham Sudirman tapi tidak dimasukkan di dalam mana-mana CD kompilasi Sudirman... pelik!...

Lirik:

Kalau ku dapat mendaki gunung
Akanku seru kulaungkan
Oh namamu, kuserukan oh namamu
Pasti nanti
Bergema namamu di pergunungan
Bergema namamu di seluruh maya

Indahnya namamu seindah wajahmu
Bagai bidadari di dalam mimpi
Indahnya namamu seindah wajahmu
Kaulah pilihan hati

Kalau ku dapat mengepul awan
Akan kupintal ku jadikan
Oh namamu ku tuliskan oh namamu
Pasti nanti
Tertulis namamu di kepulan awan
Kan jelas terlihat di seluruh maya

Indahnya namamu seindah wajahmu
Bagai bidadari di dalam mimpi
Indahnya namamu seindah wajahmu
Kaulah pilihan hati

Hospital: Anwar sodomy case report 'looks genuine'

2008-07-31T10:11:00.001+08:00

By EILEEN NG

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — A medical report that appeared to prove Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim's innocence in a sodomy case "looks genuine," an official said Wednesday.
Anwar was accused last month of sodomizing his male aide, who filed a police complaint after being examined at two hospitals, first at the Pusrawi Hospital and then at the government's Kuala Lumpur General Hospital.
Anwar — who has consistently denied this sodomy allegation, the second against him in a decade — says he is a victim of a political conspiracy by the government to stop him from seizing power.

On Tuesday, Anwar cited a purported Pusrawi Hospital medical report, published by several news portals on the Internet, in which the doctor who examined the 23-year-old aide wrote he found no evidence of sodomy. The hospital confirmed Wednesday the report was authentic.
"It looks genuine," said Kamaruddin Ahmad, the medical director of the partly government-owned Pusrawi Hospital. But he told reporters that a sodomy examination must be done by a specialist.
The new accusation surfaced as Anwar seeks to unseat the government.
Anwar plans to contest a by-election in a northern state in a bid to return to Parliament about 10 years after his rising career was shattered by sodomy and corruption allegations. He is believed to be nurturing ambitions to be Malaysia's next prime minister.
Anwar's accuser went to the hospital on June 28, complaining of a stomach ache and a painful anus, and was examined by a general practitioner who is a Myanmar national but "not qualified to make any conclusions on sodomy."
He suggested the patient go to the government hospital and file a police report.
The accuser went to the government hospital for a second examination. It is not clear what transpired there, but the accuser filed a complaint at a police station against Anwar the same day.
Anwar is currently out on bail after being arrested on suspicion of committing sodomy, which punishable by up to 20 years in prison.
He was barred from contesting general elections in March — when his coalition made spectacular gains — because of a previous corruption conviction. The ban expired in April.
He was also charged with sodomy in 1998, but that charge was overturned in 2004.
Associated Press Writer Vijay Joshi contributed to this report.

ANWAR STORIES

2008-04-12T01:23:00.001+08:00

Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim was Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia from 1993-1998. He also served as Minister of Finance for Malaysia from 1991-1998. Highly respected for his principled stance against corruption and his skillful management of the Malaysian economy during the turbulent period of its financial crisis, Anwar is also viewed as one of the forefathers of the Asian Renaissance and a leading proponent of greater cooperation among civilizations. He is an ardent supporter of democracy and is an authoritative voice bridging the gap between East and West. Anwar was invited to join the United Malays National Organization (UMNO), the ruling political party in Malaysia, and the government in 1982, by then Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad. His rise in the party and in the government was meteoric. He was elected in 1984, as Leader of UMNO Youth and in 1986, became a Vice-President of UMNO. He served as Minister of Culture, Youth and Sports in 1983; Minister of Agriculture in 1984; and Minister of Education in 1986, prior to his tenure as Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister in the 90s
.

Active on the national front, Anwar has also been highly engaged in the international arena. He has been a strong advocate for civilizational dialogue and has worked tirelessly towards the ideals of Convivencia, the mutual coexistence of civilizations and the interplay of different social, cultural, and spiritual ideas.

Anwar also was Chairman of the Development Committee of World Bank and International Monetary Fund in 1998. During his tenure he strongly endorsed the initiatives of debt cancellation and reprieve for poor countries, particularly those in Africa.

Throughout his career in public service, Anwar was unrelenting in his campaign against corruption and has been committed to the ideals of empowerment, justice, and equity. He has stressed the need for internal reforms in order to reinforce civil and democratic institutions and to expand the democratic space. As acting Prime Minister in 1997 he introduced the controversial but effective Anti-Corruption Legislation. His emphasis on social justice, poverty eradication, education and civil society has guided his government involvement to the end.

During his tenure as Finance Minister, Malaysia enjoyed unprecedented prosperity and economic growth and joined the ranks of other Asian countries as an “Asian Tiger.” Anwar’s impact on the economy was immediate. Shortly after becoming Finance Minister, Euromoney named him as one of the top four finance ministers and in 1996, Asiamoney named him Finance Minister of the Year.

In the midst of Asian Financial Crises of 1997, Anwar was hailed for guiding Malaysia through this period of instability. He backed free market principles and called for “creative destruction”, highlighting the need to reconsider the proximity of business and politics in Malaysia. He advocated for greater accountability and refused to offer government bail-outs to companies facing bankruptcy. He also instituted widespread spending cuts and gut government expenditure on mega projects. These prescriptions saved the Malaysian economy and earned Anwar many accolades, including the title “Asian of the Year” by Newsweek International in 1998.

As Anwar amplified his calls for reform in 1998, fearing that he was losing his grip over the country, then Prime Minister Mahathir dismissed Anwar from the government and had him tried on trumped up charges. Anwar’s trial and subsequent conviction were widely discredited in the international community. Amnesty International stated that the entire trial proceedings “. . . exposed a pattern of political manipulation of key state institutions including the police, public prosecutor’s office and the judiciary. . .” Many world leaders including US Vice President Al Gore as well as the US Senate called for his release from prison. His conviction was overturned by the Malaysian Supreme Court and Anwar was finally released from solitary confinement on September 2, 2004.

Since 2004 he has held lecturing positions at St. Anthony’s College at Oxford, the School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University and at the School of Foreign Service in Georgetown University. Anwar was recently appointed as Honorary President of the London-based group accountability as well as Chairman of the Beirut-based Foundation for the Future. Anwar is also currently advisor to the People’s Justice Party (Keadilan), Malaysia.

He is an internationally renowned speaker on the subjects of democracy, freedom, governance, Islam and democracy and the need for accountability. He resides in Malaysia with his wife and six children.

What this year's UMNO General Assembly might focus on

2007-11-07T07:28:00.000+08:00

Malaysia’s ruling party, the United Malays National Organization or UMNO, which is led by Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi will hold its general assembly this week.

This is the last congress that UMNO will have ahead of the general election that is expected before April next year.

According to UMNO’s vice president, Muhyiddin Yassin, Prime Minister Abdullah will focus on ways to enhance cooperation between the races on the economic, social and educational spheres.

To find out more about what PM Abdullah will focus on at this year’s UMNO general assembly, Shereena Sajeed spoke with Dr Ooi Kee Beng, Fellow at the Institute of South-East Asian Studies in Singapore.

OKB: I think he will be talking about national unity. I think that’s what he talked about yesterday, in an interview. I think it will be national unity that he will try to bring up and I think that’s one of the ways that he can use to calm things down because tat the moment the feeling on the ground in Malaysia is rather bad. There’s a lot of tension and there’s a lot of distrust about the government, which is basically UMNO is willing and not willing to do where reforms are concerned, especially with the judiciary as you know, and then this very strange thing of one top policeman coming out against another top policeman, well it might make good reading, but it’s a bit scary for the country.

What is one of the main issues that will be discussed at the annual meeting, taking into consideration elections are just around the corner?

OKB: I suspect, here I can be totally wrong. I suspect that Abdullah will try not to talk about the general elections. For one thing, we have to remember that this UMNO assembly should have had a general elections and that was postponed. And I’m sure there were very good reasons why UMNO decided to postpone their elections. The main reason I think that it is to, again calm things down and make sure that within UMNO itself, there won’t be too bickering and internal competition so by postponing the party elections, they’re managed to do that. And Abdullah does not have to call elections for over a year yet, you know and we are just speculating that he will call one early. I mean a year is quite a long time. So I don’t think he will, unless he is forced to, I don’t think he will bring it up on his own initiative to talk about the general elections. He will in an obtuse way of course, by talking about national unity and all that. There are certain consequences, certain significance for the general elections.

What are some of the challenges that Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi or any of the UMNO delegates may face at the meeting?

OKB: I think UMNO is basically not a party that is going to, at this point in time, it’s not a party that will challenge the leadership in any way and I think that Abdullah’s soft leadership, if you like, a leadership of violence, if you want to call it, suits many people in the middle rank of UMNO, it gives them a lot of space and for these people, wannabes climbing up and trying to get themselves into positions of patronage, Abdullah is perfect for them so I don’t expect any challenges to come from within UMNO.

Do you think we will see a repeat of what happened last year when things spun out of control?

OKB: No. No I think they’ve learnt their lesson. For one thing, they won’t have it telecasted in anyway I think. What would be interesting would be the role of Hishammuddin, UMNO youth leader when he goes up there. I think he is probably sitting at home now and listening to advice whether to wave the kris or not. I think that’s what people will be looking for and that will be the highlight of the assembly. Will Hishammuddin do it again? He’s done it two years in a row now and it’s become a matter of honour for him now I suppose and the honour of UMNO youth to not cave in from pressure from non-Malays, to not wave the kris so we will see whether they will wave the kris or not.

Football: Malaysia make it to final

2007-08-28T11:01:00.000+08:00

By ERIC SAMUEL

PETALING JAYA: Striker Safee Sali scored two goals to help Malaysia beat Singapore 3-1 in the semi-finals of the 39th Merdeka Tournament at the MBPJ Stadium in Kelana Jaya here last night.

The victory put Malaysia through to a match for the title against defending champions Myanmar at the Shah Alam Stadium tomorrow.

Myanmar advanced with a 3-1 win over Zimbabwe in the other semi-final.

Malaysia have won the tournament 10 times and their last success was in 1993, beating South Korea B 3-1 in the final.

First blood: Mohd Khyril Muhymeen (No.14) celebrates after scoring Malaysia’s first goal against Singapore yesterday. Malaysia won 3-1. – By KAMAL SELLEHUDDIN/The Star
Their last appearance in the final was in 2000, losing 0-2 to New Zealand.

Malaysia adapted better to the wet conditions last night to end Singapore's unbeaten run in the tournament.

Mohd Khyril Muhymeen opened accounts in the 14th minute and Safee Sali, returning from a one-match suspension, went on target in the 18th and 76th minutes.

Agu Casmir scored for Singapore in the 48th minute.

The victory and scoring a goal was sweet indeed for Khyril. He has made up for a missed penalty that gave Singapore a 4-5 win in the shoot-out of an Asean Football Federation (AFF) championship semi-final match seven months ago.

Khyril brought the cheers to the 10,000-odd home fans in the 14th minute when his curling free kick from 30 metres out sailed into goal. Four minutes later, Safee latched on to a deep cross from Norfarhan Mohamed to beat onrushing goalkeeper Hassan Sunny.

The Lions pulled a goal back with Agu goal scoring off a goalmouth melee in the 48th minute.

It was a nail-biting finish as Singapore came close to getting the equaliser on a few occasions.

But Safee brought relief to Malaysia when he met a low cross from Mohd Zaquan to regain a two-goal lead in the 76th minute.

Yan Paing was the hero for Myanmar, scoring a brace in the 32nd and 57th minutes.

Substitute Yazar Win Thein scored the other goal for the defending champions in the 87th minute. Zimbabwe got their goal through Mutshumaveli Moyo in the 51st minute.

Petikan Dari Blog http://rockterusrock.blogspot.com/

WALAUPUN tidak segah Search, Wings, Sweet Charity atau Lefthanded, rasanya ramai rockers yang mengenali DRiyadh. Band yang dianggotai empat anak muda dari
Gopeng, Perak ini mula dikenali selepas menjuarai pertandingan band Bintang Box Office pada lewat 80-an dulu sebelum disambar label PMC dan menghasilkan album
sulung Media 88-89.Line-up yang terdiri daripada Akhil (vokal), JP(gitar), Eman (bass) dan E.E (dram) mudah menarik perhatian khalayak kerana selain berbakat, muka puncute dan hensem!

DRiyadh dah lama berkubur. Impaknya pun tak la sebesar mana, tapi nama ini terus menjadi sebutan. Inikerana Akhil atau nama sebenarnya Akhil Abdul Hayy,37, yang sudah berhijrah dan kini cukup popular sebagai ustaz, penceramah dan pendakwah bebas.

Atas bantuan saudara Aliph (rakan serock aku), kami berdua sempat duduk berborak-borak dengan Ustaz Akhil sementara nak tunggu waktu Maghrib di sebuat mesjid
dekat Cheras, tak lama dulu.Mungkin ramai dari korang yang pernah baca kisah Akhil
ni kat mana-mana majalah atau surat khabar. Tapi yang ni aku cuba fokuskan pada zaman rock dia dulu, bila mendapat hidayah dan pengalamannya.

Apa aktiviti sekarang?

Saya kini aktif sebagai pendakwah dan penceramah bebas. Saya banyak mengadakan ceramah sempena Israk Mikraj, Maulidur Rasul dan macam-macam la event Islam.
Tapi itu antara yang bermusim la. Boleh dikatakan hampir setiap hari terdapat undangan ceramah ke merata surau, masjid, sekolah dan pusat motivasi di seluruh
negara termasuk la Singapura.Saya juga masih menyanyi sebenarnya, tapi dalam aura
keislaman. Baru-baru ini saya pernah ke Thailand mengadakan konsert kesenian Islam bersama In Team.Selain tu, saya mengajar al-Quran di Ipoh di samping
mempunyai perniagaan di sana. Dan, saya juga menetap di Ipoh.

Dulu, macamana boleh terbabit dengan band rock ni?

Biasa la, tahun 80-an adalah era ekplosif muzik rock,kan? So, saya pun ikut sama terpengaruh. Mula-mula biasa la kan, rock kapak mesti start kat kenduri
kahwin kan? Pengalaman pertama DRiyadh kat kenduri kahwin la. Lepas tu pada 1988 kebetulan Ali Bakar anjurkan pertandingan band Bintang Box Office dan
kitorang cuba nasib. Tak salah saya masa tu ada 113band rock dari seluruh negara yang bertanding.Alhamdulillah, kami menang dan dapat offer recording contract daripada PMC.Konsep asal yang kami nak ialah heavy metal. Ye lah,masing-masing influence Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden,Loudness, Poison, Motley Crue, tapi terpaksa ikut cakap record company. So, buat la muzik apa yang diorang nak. DRiyadh sebenarnya tak top mana pun.
Kami bertahan tak sampai tiga tahun. Lagipun masa kami keluar album, kebetulan Wings baru meletup. So,diorang betul-betul pukul habis la! Tak terlawan la masa tu.

klip video seroja

DRiyadh tu apa? Bukan ibu negara Arab Saudi ke?

Heheh saya adalah keturunan Rawa yang banyak bermastautin di daerah Gopeng. Dalam bahasa Rawa, YADH tu bermaksud garisan. Jadi, maksudnya adalah DIRI dan GARISAN = DRIYADH. Kalau dengar balik intro beberapa lagu kami, ada pengaruh muzik Arab sebenarnya. Saya pulak ada basic dalam pengajian al-Quran, so, lenggok nyanyian pun lebih ke arah itu.

Masa mula-mula buat band dulu macamana?

Susah jugak. Kami takde sapa-sapa yang sponsor. Semua keluar duit sendiri. Cara nak dapatkan duit, kami jual durian kat kampung. Heheh rasanya cerita jual durian
tu ada keluar dalam majalah dulu. Life masa tu pun asyik pikir nak seronok je. Hari-hari lepak kat shopping complex. Biasa la masa tu dah tak duduk dengan orang tua, kira nak cari life yang betul-betul rock la.

Dalam banyak konsert DRiyadh, yang mana satu yang tak
boleh dilupakan?

Konsert di Stadium Darulmakmur, Kuantan, Pahang pada 1990. Kami bersama Rahim Maarof dan Gersang jadi opening act untuk Search. Crowd memang ramai gila!Penuh satu stadium tu!! Memang best betul. Paling best sebab semua artis masa tu pegi naik bas khas dari KL.Dan, konsert tu sebenarnya adalah sebahagian daripada babak dalam filem Fenomena arahan Aziz M Osman. Tapi yang keluar Search aje la Err sekarang pun saya masih mengikuti perkembangan muzik rock tempatan. Saya masih ambil tahu walaupun
saya dah macam sekarang ni.

DRiyadh pun tak lama kan?

Ha ah Lepas juara Bintang Box Office tu, Ali Bakar offer untuk album kompilasi Hikayat Rok, lepas tu album Pancakara Cakrewala dan kemudian baru la keluar
full album debut kami iaitu Media 88-89. Lepas tu memang banyak problem, bermula dengan drummer, E.E yang menarik diri. Lepas tu cuba cari drummer lain,tapi semuanya tak kena, tak ngam sehinggalah kami jumpa Aah, bekas drummer Ikrar. Sambil tu kami dalam proses nak lahirkan album baru, tapi tak jadi sebab banyak sangat problemnya.
Akhirnya kami tinggal bertiga. DRiyadh pun dah takde dan kami tubuhkan band trio iaitu Lang Asia.Konon-konon band tu cool la, nak buat stail busking.Dan, masa tu dah rasa otai dan rambutnya pun dah panjang gila. Kira cool abis la! Hahaha! Masa tu kami
dengan label Muzik Matahati, milik Pak Hussein, bapak kepada Ruhil. Dia pun merata-rata bawak kami dan janji nak buatkan album, tapi banyak sangat problem dan
antaranya ialah duit. Akhirnya semua tak jadi dan habuk pun tarak!Bagaimanapun, kami nekad jugak nak buat album, tapi tak jadi jugak sampai la Lang Asia pun berpecah. Saya pulak cuba-cuba nak buat album solo selepas ditawarkan oleh seorang produser, Yusri Yusuf. Dan, nasib saya malang lagi apabila projek tu pun tak menjadi.

Bagaimana penghijrahan itu berlaku?

Lepas Lang Asia berpecah dan projek album solo saya tak menjadi, saya membuka gerai makan di Taman Beringin, Jinjang pada hujung 1991. Ok la jugak,tempat tu kira jadi port mat-mat rock la. Walaupun minat dalam bidang seni tu masih ada, tapi saya dan
blur, dah boring serta tak tau mana arah tuju pasal apa yang diharapkan dalam bidang seni semuanya tak menjadi.Saya rasa penghijrahan yang sebenar terjadi pada awal
1992. Masa tu saya rasa dah tak sesuai duduk di KL.Jadi, saya nekad tinggalkan perniagaan gerai makan,tinggalkan muzik dan terus balik kampung di Gopeng,
Perak. Saya kembali jadi budak kampung dan tak buat apa-apa, duduk rumah je. Tapi saya jejak kaki balik ke masjid, dengar kuliah agama dan sebagainya.Alhamdulillah, saya memang sejak kecil dididik arwah abah dengan agama dan itu saya memang tak pernah lupa,walaupun sebelum itu ia kerap saya tinggalkan. Kira back to basic la
Lepas tu arwah abah bawa saya belajar di Madrasah al-Mustafawiyah atau Pesantren Purba di Sumatera Barat, Indonesia. Di sanalah saya buang segala sifat mazmumah saya yang selama ini terleka dengan dunia.Pengisian peringkat pertama dalam diri saya adalah disana. Peringkat kedua adalah selepas pulang ke Malaysia dan arwah abah mula mengajar bagaimana untuk membawa jemaah haji ke Mekah sehinggalah saya mampu
menguruskannya sendiri tanpa pengawasan abah.Selain diri sendiri, arwah abah adalah orang yang memainkan peranan besar dalam mengembalikan saya ke
pangkal jalan. Dia la pembuka jalan yang sebenarnya.Selain tu arwah datuk saya iaitu Haji Daud Nordin. Dia pun banyak ajar saya.

Bila pulak start berdakwah secara serius?

Tak salah saya tahun 1994 ketika bekerja sebagai guru al-Quran di Pusat Pembangunan Keluarga (PPK), Ipoh.Banyak la ajar al-Quran terutama di pusat-pusat pemulihan akhlak. Dalam masa yang sama PPK juga mendidik saya menjadi penceramah. Ceramah pertama saya adalah di Kuala Kangsar pada 1996. Lepas tu orang mula kenal dan kedudukan saya sebagai penyanyi sebelum tu sebenarnya membantu jugak. Bagaimanapun orang betul-betul kenal saya selepas mengadakan ceramah di Kajang pada 1998. Ha bermula dari situ orang sudah mula mengundang saya secara solo, tidak lagi sebagai
penceramah undangan. Sebelum tu banyak jadi opening act untuk alim ulama lain.
Macamana keadaannya masa mula-mula dapat turning point atau taufik dan hidayah tu?
Masa tu muzik pun tak nak dengar dah! Buat pertama kalinya dalam hidup saya, jiwa saya tak boleh menerima muzik. Tapi ye lah, kita masih hidup di alam nyata dan
belum lagi di syurga. Jadi, ada cara hidup di dunia yang boleh membuatkan kita tidak terlalu asing di mata masyarakat. Jadi, dalam masa saya memantapkan diri,mengaji, saya masuk ke dalam masyarakat. Dalam erti kata lain, saya adalah umat pertengahan tidak terlalu fanatik dan tidak terlalu mengambil tahu.Yang penting, apa yang Allah swt perintahkan, kita mampu untuk lakukannya, maka lakukanlah. Simple je.
Allah swt akan tunjukkan mana yang baik dan tidak.Saya memilih untuk terus menyanyi, tapi dengan aura keislaman kerana saya tahu seni adalah salah satu alternatif yang boleh mengajak remaja.

Pandangan ustaz mengenai generasi baru rockers ni?

Dulu tak semua rockers yang berpendidikan tinggi macam sekarang. Tapi saya perhatikan banyak rockers sekarang ni mudah terpengaruh kepada perkara-perkara tak betul
terutama ajaran sesat. Kita kena agak-agak la, dalam mengenali Islam ini tiada jalan pintas. Bukan just terus berubah je! Kena duduk dulu beruzlah.Saya nampak rockers sekarang ada visi, tapi mudah sangat terikut-ikut. Jadi, kalau dah ada basic agama
tu boleh lah balancekan. Kalau tidak boleh terjerumus sehingga sampai ke peringkat di mana dia boleh katakan apa saja yang dilakukannya adalah dakwah, tapi dia tak
tau haram itu tetap ada. Prinsipnya kena memahami,bukan main belasah je. Kalau belasah saja tu la yang melingkup tu!Ceritakan keindahan di pentas rock dan pentas dakwah.

Mesti banyak perbezaannya, kan?

Tentu sekali. Bagi saya, pentas rock hanya untuk orang muda saja. Dulu kalau show kita ramai yang datang,crowd pulak sporting dan kita dapat menghiburkan orang
lain dengan muzik rock, itu sudah dikira sebagai satu keindahan dan kepuasan maksima. Kira zaman tu apa yang poison dengan Motley Crue buat, kami pun nak buat sama!
Tapi pentas dakwah ni lain. Pertama, kena berhati-hati kerana saya bercakap mengenai hukum agama. Di depan saya pula adalah alim ulama yang lebih senior dan lebih berpengalaman. Alhamdulillah setakat ini saya belum pernah menerima teguran daripada mereka.Itu memang cabaran besar bagi saya kerana saya tak punya apa-apa. Lebih-lebih lagi dengan latar belakang saya sebelum ini. Tentulah saya akan dipandang sebelah
mata oleh golongan terbabit. Tapi syukur kerana dengan pertolongan Allah swt, ceramah saya terus diterima.Keindahan sebenarnya itu kita kaitkan dengan agama pada jalan dakwah dan jangan hipokrit. Cakap apa yang dirasakan perlu, tapi perlu diisi dengan ilmu tarbiyah dari segi penyampaian supaya ia boleh diterima ramai.Indahnya juga apabila perhimpunan atau majlis ilmu itu dinaungi malaikat. Saya juga tahu di mana level saya sebagai penceramah di mana khalayak akan menilai saya.Bagaimanapun, saat paling indah ialah apabila semua pengunjung ceramah saya sama ada orang tua, muda dan
kanak-kanak berzikir bersama. Itu menunjukkan perpaduan dan itulah ketenangan yang tidak saya dapat semasa membuat persembahan di konsert rock dulu. Dulu bila bawak lagu When The Smoke Is Going Down dah rasa tenang, rileks, tambah pulak diiringi crowd yang beramai-ramai menyalakan pemetik api. Memang la tenang, tapi bukan as-saqinah seperti yang kita dapat ketika khusyuk dalam sembahyang.

Selain berceramah, ustaz masih menyanyi lagi. Dalam masa yang sama terpaksa berhadapan dengan alim ulama lain di depan pentas. Rasanya susah jugak ye?

Memang susah terutama untuk menyesuaikan diri.Kadang-kadang jadi dilema. Contohnya dalam satu majlis persembahan, ramai penontonnya adalah di kalangan remaja dan dalam masa yang sama ada juga golongan alim ulama. Saya tak boleh lebih-lebih sangat. Golongan remaja itu pulak tak mahukan stail tok-tok guru kalau saya berkonsert, diorang nak saya sebagai artis! Saya perlu tackle semua orang. Memang susah dan
jawapannya saya tak boleh. Sebagai manusia biasa, saya memang tak mampu jika dalam situasi begitu. Cuma pada saya, jangan jadi hipokrit dan buat apa yang terbaik.
Alhamdulillah, golongan alim ulama itu tidak menolak hiburan. Mereka cuma menjaga kepentingan masyarakat supaya kita sama-sama ingat bahawa berhibur itu boleh,
tetapi sama-samalah kita kawal.Sebenarnya kedudukan saya ni susah jugak. Dulu orang
dah kenal saya sebagai penyanyi rock, tapi dengan keadaan sekarang ini saya masih menyanyi. Mungkin ada yang ingat saya membawa pengaruh baru walaupun saya
sudah berserban dan berjubah. Tapi alhamdulillah selepas 16 tahun saya berdakwah, semua orang boleh terima saya dengan baik. Maknanya saya yakin dengan apa yang saya buat. Niat saya suci dan ikhlas untuk mengajar orang dan saya jaga batasannya sehingga akhirnya boleh diterima orang.

Ahmad : aku lihat tahi aku sudah tak ada.
Hassan : ada.
Ahmad : aku pun tertanya-tanya.
Hassan : tanya.
Ahmad : siapa makan tahi aku?
Hassan : aku....

ENGLISH JOKE

What men really mean when they say...
"I'm going fishing."
Really means...
"I'm going to drink myself dangerously stupid, and stand by a stream with a stick in my hand, while the fish swim by in complete safety."

"Woman driver."
Really means...
"Someone who doesn't speed, tailgate, swear, make obscene gestures and has a better driving record than me."

"It's a guy thing."
Really means...
"There is no rational thought pattern connected with it, and you have no chance at all of making it logical."

"Uh huh," "Sure, honey," or "Yes, dear."
Really means...
Absolutely nothing. It's a conditioned response like Pavlov's dog drooling.

"My wife doesn't understand me."
Really means...
"She's heard all my stories before, and is tired of them."

Really means...
"I have no idea how it works."

"It's got guns, knives, fast cars, and Heather Locklear."

"That's women's work."
Really means...
"It's difficult, dirty, and thankless."

"Go ask your mother."
Really means...
"I am incapable of making a decision."

"I do help around the house."

"I once put a dirty towel in the laundry basket."

"I can't find it."

"It didn't fall into my outstretched hands, so I'm completely clueless."
