So many things to say but somehow couldn't find the time to write. Was wondering whether you ppl are still up for the next semester (Sem 1 08/09) to start? Have you guys get so caught up with work that y'all are starting to get hung up over it? I actually have more questions. Been doing a lot of thinking lately. Well, since after lack of Dr. Arif's strive to wake up, I only know about the world occasionally, which I find, slowly, I'm turning into a loser for that.
However, seeing and observing the lives of others (ppl I know and don't) have always been, to my philosophical mind (he he), is one of the integral part of learning. I did use the word 'see' and 'observe' cause I don't think I need so much of those two to retrieve whats obvious (only at times intense questioning and investigation are used on a particular subject).
I've just learnt that I hate the guys that doesn't go for Friday prayers, esp. when they have the cheat and nerve to show up in public yet feel good about it. Most give the excuses like 'i am working, no choice'. As much as I hate that, I just realized that I am doing the same kind of crime by showing up in public not wearing a 'hijab'. To reason, both acts are accountable in the humiliation of the divine name of Islam even though the punishment is not of the same kind, and what is worst is that we are showing, giving the impression to Muslims and Non-Muslims that it is OK to do what we do . and so will our generation and the generation after.
How could I be so blind and throw all sorts of accusations at these ppl when I am also committing what my mind perceive as 'cemarkan nama suci Islam'? I know this is a simple kind of observation, and I am pretty sure all of you have figured it before me, but I will still write it as drastically I feel like a minor. as I thought I have always known to throw relevant, solid facts/reasons behind my every accusation or my every dislike.. turns out I am far from learning the right 'think'.
My journey to discovery is nothing close to reaching its peak. This shall be continued..
