A very interesting piece of information or shall I say advice to be shared.
Happy 1430 Hijria.
Happy? But situations in the Muslim world is still sad as it was 500 years ago since we relaxed our quest for knowledge. Because of that influence and power shifted to the Christian world - and have remained there ever since.
The figures are speaking themselves very loudly but we refuse to listen. Some thoughts - Extracts of speech by Hafez A.B. Mohamed. Director-General, Al Baraka Bank.
Demographics:
o World Jewish population: 14 million
o Distribution: 7m in America
5m in Asia
2m in Europe
100 thousands in Africa
o World Muslim population: 1.5 billion
o Distribution: 1 billion in Asia/Mid-East
400m in Africa
44m in Europe
6m in the Americas
o Every fifth human being is a Muslim.
o For every single Hindu there are two Muslims
o For every Buddhist there are two Muslims
o For every Jew there are 107 Muslims
Yet the 14 million Jews are more powerful than the
entire 1.5 billion Muslims...
Why..?
Here are some of the reasons.

o Cognitive therapy: Aaron Beck - Jewish
o Contraceptive pill: Gregory Pincus - Jewish

Nobel Prize Winners

Why are they powerful and why are Muslims powerless?
Here's another reason... We have lost the capacity to
produce knowledge.
o In the entire Muslim world (57 Muslim countries) there
are only 500 universities
o In USA alone, 5,758 universities
o In India alone, 8,407 universities
Not one university in the entire Islamic World features
in the Top 500 Ranking Universities of the World
o Literacy in the Christian world - 90%
o Literacy in the Muslim world - 40%
o 15 Christian-majority countries' literacy rate - 100%
o Muslim-majority countries with 100% - None
o 98% in Christian countries completed primary education
o Only 50% in Muslim countries completed primary education
o 40% in Christian countries attended university
o In Muslim countries, a dismal 2% attended university
o Muslim-majority countries have 230 scientists per million
o The USA has 5000 per million
o The Christian world - 1000 technicians per million
o Entire Arab world - only 50 technicians per million
o Muslim world spending on R&D - 0.2% of GDP
o Christian world's R&D - 5.0% of GDP
Conclusions
The Muslim world lacks the capacity to produce
knowledge.
Another way of testing the degree of knowledge is the
degree of diffusing knowledge.

Conclusion.. .
Muslim World is failing to diffuse knowledge.
Applying knowledge is another such test.
o Exports of high-tech products from

o Tiny Singapore (4mil pop.) : 68% ...!
Conclusion.. .
Muslim world is failing to apply knowledge.
What do you conclude? No need to tell... The figures are speaking themselves very loudly but we are unable to use the ears Allah gave us to listen and eyes to let us see...
Advice
Please educate yourself and your children. Excuses like lack of money, ability or opening are nothing more than that - excuses.
Always promote education, don't compromise on it. We hate to be weak, illiterate and poor but are we too weak to give our children the opportunity to break the curse?
Don't ignore your children's slightest misguidance from education... and please, for Allah's sake, don't use your personal contacts to promote your children in their
education. If they fail, let them because it will make them learn the sweetness of success. Remember... if they can't do it now, they can't ever.
With knowledge comes power, and with it even the small can rule over the big. We are world's biggest but sadly NOT strongest nation.
All we need is to identify and explore our inner selves. Insha-Allah, our weapon to victory, our duty to spread God's words and our opportunity save all humankind is best through knowledge, creativity, literacy.... And nothing else.
.... Wake up O khalifahs of the land ...
.... Wake up ....

I’d been asked by my friend that question.
Seems like easy to answer, but in fact it is very though.
What is the purpose of this life?
"Untuk apa aku diciptakan? Untuk belajar, bekerja, bekeluarga dan mengumpul harta semata-mata? Aku dilahirkan dalam keadaan serba serbi ada dan mewah. Aku dibesarkan dalam keadaan yang amat selesa. Ibu bapa yang amat memahami dan ‘supportive’. Rakan-rakan yang berilmu. Sekolah yang hebat. Universiti terulung.Namun, aku merasakan tujuan hidupku kelam. Aku hanyut dalam dunia yang sementara."
Sahabat-sahabat, mari kita kaji kenapa Allah hidupkan kita di muka bumi ini. Ciptaan Allah bukanlah sia-sia bahkan ada tujuan yang tersendiri. Dalam Al-Quran, Allah telah jelaskan bahawa tujuan Allah ciptakan jin dan manusia adalah untuk beribadat kepadaNya. (Surah Az-zariyat:56). Inilah jawapan yang paling kukuh mengapa Allah ciptakan kita.
Tujuan beribadat bukanlah ‘ibadat’ khusus semata-mata yang kita kebanyakan kita faham. Kita faham bahawa ibadat ini hanya tertumpu pada solat,zakat, haji dan puasa semata-mata.Tidak sama sekali. Ibadat sebenarnya terbahagi kepada dua iaitu ibadat khusus dan umum. Ibadat khusus itulah amalan-amalan yang telah ditetapkan pensyariatannya sebagai contoh solat dan puasa. Ibadat umum pula adalah perkara-perkara baik yang dilakukan dalam kehidupan seharian kita. Makan,minum,tidur,riadhah, jika diniatkan kerana Allah, semestinya dikira sebagai ibadat disisi Allah. Sungguh Allah Maha Pemurah dan Penyayang.
Jika kita seorang pelajar,belajar kita adalah ibadat..
Jika kita seorang pekerja,pekerjaan kita adalah ibadat..
Jika kita seorang peniaga,perniagaan kita adalah ibadat..
Jika kita menolong sahabat yg dlm kesusahan,pertolongan kita adalah ibadat..
Jika kita melangkah ke kuliah untuk menuntut ilmu,langkah kita adalah ibadat..
Jika kita memasak untuk ahli rumah,masakan kita adalah ibadat..
Subhanallah.. banyak rupanya cara nak beribadat kepada Allah sebenarnya..=)
TETAPI
Dengan syarat,semua amalan baik mestilah disertai dgn niat.. Sesungguhnya setiap amalan mestilah bermula dgn niat.
Mudah aja.. Niatkan setiap perkara baik untuk mendapat redha Allah. Dalam pada masa yg sama, jika hati selalu terdidik dgn berniat, kita akan menghindari melakukan dosa.. kerana tiada dosa yang diniatkan untuk mendapat redha Allah..
Oleh itu,marilah kita menjadikan kehidupan kita sebagai ibadat kepada Allah..=)
Allah Maha Pemurah dan Penyayang terhadap hamba-hambaNya.. sekian,selamat beramal =)


Kisah ini berlaku pada bulan September lepas di pekan tempat tinggal saya. Saya dapat melihat nilai-nilai Islam dalam diri pak cik berbangsa Cina ini. Pada pagi tersebut, ayah saya telah menghantar saya ke stesen bas Triang. Seterusnya saya akan mengambil bas ke Temerloh dan seterusnya ke
Dalam pada itu, datang seorang pak cik berbangsa Cina menaiki motorsikal dan berhenti betul-betul dihadapan pak cik berbangsa
“Lu mau pegi mana?”
“Saya mau pegi
“Oo..Lu mau pegi
“Tak tau”
“Aiyaa..itu bas express terus ke kl la..tiap-tiap hari ada..Dekat balai bomba itu
“Tak tau la pakcik..”
“Aiya..mari wa tunjukkan.. Wa boleh angkat lu sama naik belakang motor.. Tapi lu mesti malu punya..”
Sunyi seketika.
“Pakcik jalan slow-slow la..saya ikut belakang ok”
“ok..lu ikut wa pelan-pelan..”
Dia terus menunggang motor perlahan-lahan sambil memerhatikan saya melintas jalan besar. Saya pun terus melangkah secepat mungkin. Sampai la saya tidak dapat melihat kelibatnya lagi. Terdetik dalam hati..”Pak cik ni tipu aku ke?? Habisla..huhu”..Rupanya dia ada dihadapan menunggu aku berjalan menghampirinya. Jam hampir menunjukkan 8.00 pagi. Akhirnya sampailah saya ke stesen bas tersebut.Dia masih menunggu sehingga kaunter tiket dibuka dan menyuruh saya membeli tiket. Dia juga menunggu saya naik ke atas bas dan sehinggalah bas meninggalkan stesen tersebut. Sebelum saya melangkah naik ke atas bas, beberapa orang berbangsa Cina menegurnya.Mungkin bertanyakan siapa saya.. Dan mungkin mereka ingat saya ini anaknya..Almaklumlah, saya ini ‘chinese look’ (hehe..=).
Itulah kisah saya berjumpa dengan pak cik tersebut. Nilai baik yang ditunjukkan membuatkan saya rasa terharu dan memikirkan alangkah indahnya jika pak cik dapat mengenali Islam.. Semoga Allah beri hidayah pada pak cik..Terima kasih pakcik!
