Harini duduk dalam lab dari pukul 10 pagi sampai 3.30 petang. Keluar hanya untuk makan dan solat je. Orang lain seronok duduk rumah tapi saya kat Penang masuk lab. Takpe, FYP punya pasal. Redah je laaa.
Masa nak keluar lab petang tadi, berlaku conversation antara saya dan kawan, dengan co-supervisor kitorang; Husam. Husam ni student dari Iraq yang tengah buat PhD kat usm.
“When will you come again?”“Maybe next Wednesday inshaAllah. Because on Monday and Tuesday are public holidays for Thaipusam and Maulidur Rasul.”“Ohh yaa Maulidur Rasul. By the way, do you have any special celebration for Maulidur Rasul? Maybe in your hostel, mosque, or perhaps with your friends?”Nodded.“Yes, usually we have celebration in the mosque with talks about the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.”“I see. What about your personal celebration? Maybe you can sit together with your friends and talk about our Prophet. Just to remember our Prophet.”“Why we can’t have special celebration here for Maulidur Rasul like the Chinese celebrating Chinese New Year? With so many lights and fireworks.”“Maybe because there are so many Chinese living here in Penang. That’s why.”“Yeah but still there are Muslims here too, right? Just a special celebration to remember Muhammad s.a.w”“You find it is different here from your country? Maybe the celebration and the surrounding is a bit different.”“Yeah different. Same goes with Eid Adha and Eid Fitri. During that time, the road is crowded. And we can feel the celebration. But not here.”“You know, I’ve asked people here about our Prophet but they don’t know. They are Muslim but yet they don’t know about Muhammad s.a.w. Allah said that Islam is the best religion, right? But the people here...”
Nampak sangat muka dia sedih masa cakap pasal ni dengan kitorang tadi.
Nampak muka dia sedih.
Nampak mata dia merah.
Sedih laa. Sedih. T____T
Haih do you know how it feels here in my liver?
Masa part dia cakap beza perayaan Muslim dengan Cina kat Penang, boleh la lagi nak bagitau dia yang majoriti penduduk kat sini Cina. Tempat lain lagi meriah agaknya. Tapi bila fikir-fikir balik, betul jugak. Masih ada lagi Muslim yang duduk kat Penang ni.
Kita dah dibiasakan kalau ada sambutan Maulidur Rasul mesti ada perarakan, mesti ada pertandingan sepanduk paling cantik. Bukanlah nak cakap cara-cara tu salah, tapi apa gunanya kalau lepas berarak berselawat bagai, lepas tu lepak kedai kopi sambil hisap rokok? Tell me, please? Hadith mana pulaknya yang bagitau nabi buat benda tu?
No, I’m not blaming those smokers. Tapi nak cakap yang perbuatan tu macam ‘tak kena’. Kalau betul mengaku Muslim dan sayangkan Rasulullah, ikutlah apa yang baginda lakukan.
*Reminding my ownself*
Teringat rancangan ‘Law Kaana Baynana’ kat tv al-Hijrah masa dia interview sorang perempuan. Pengacara tu tanya apa dia akan cakap kalau Rasulullah ada pada waktu sekarang ni dan baginda dok sebelah kita? Dan perempuan tu terus menangis tak boleh nak kata apa dah. MashaAllah T____T

Tak terjangkau tinggi pekertimuTidak tergambar indahnya akhlak muTidak terbalas segala jasa muSesungguhnya engkau Rasul mulia
Lagi satu, bila dia cakap pasal Eid Adha dan Eid Fitri tu, memang dalam hati mengaku yang perayaan-perayaan tu takde la semeriah mana kalau nak banding kat negara diorang. Di Malaysia ‘ruh’ tu tak terasa sangat, tempat diorang lagi hebat agaknya. Kalau kat Malaysia ni, orang sibuk pergi bazar je petang-petang. Dekat nak raya pulak sibuk buat persiapan raya.
Masa ni terus teringat satu quote dalam Contengan Jalanan,
“Orang patutnya kejar Lailatul Qadar, tapi orang Malaysia selalunya kejar Laitatul Kamdar”
Haih tiba-tiba rindu sangat nak ber-Ramadhan. Sempat ke tak ni? Allah, tolong panjangkan nafas kami hingga ke Ramadhan. Ameen.
Fi Amanillah ^__^
Allahumma solli 'ala sayyidina Muhammad.
