Syaitan Sedang Menggoda

Kebelakangan ini syaitan banyak menggoda aku dengan “dunya”, yakni dunia. Syaitan sering berbisik kepada aku
“hidup di dunia ni kalau asyik fikir tentang maruah diri dan agama je tapi kalau tak ada duit, tak guna”.

Kadang-kadang secara jujurnya aku mengaku, godaan itu sangat kuat. Tersangatlah kuatnya sampai aku hampir tewas.
Godaan itu datang dalam bentuk yang biasa digunakan syaitan untuk melemahkan manusia, lebih-lebih lagi
lelaki iaitu, perempuan dan harta dunia.

Apa yang membuatkan aku belum lagi tewas adalah kepercayaan aku kepada Tuhan bahawa aku yakin Tuhan Maha Mengetahui
apa yang aku dah buat dan sedang buat.

Aku rasa tak salah apa yang aku buat sekarang. Meninggalkan kesenangan (dari segi wang ringgit) demi kerana
tidak mahu bersubahat dengan orang yang aku rasa hampir sama dengan penjual agama dan pembuli bangsa.

Aku mengaku aku ni bukannya pandai sangat dalam hal-hal agama. Tapi aku taklah sampai sanggup menggunakan nama
agama untuk berniaga, untuk meraih wang ringgit. Puluh-puluh ribu pulak tu. Ada yang ratus ribu ringgit.

Syaitan ada juga cuba mempengaruhi fikiran aku supaya menyesal dengan tindakan aku. Tapi Alhamdulillah aku
masih kukuh dengan pendirian aku. Terima kasih kepada Tuhan kerana masih mengizinkan hati dan jiwa aku kuat.

Rezeki ada mana-mana la. Takyah la risau. Tuhan Maha Adil la.

Izul Mekje Linda, dan rakan-rakan yang lain yang sedang menghadapi cabaran hidup dunia, harap-harap korang tabah
dan cekal menghadapinya k. Jangan risau. Tuhan sentiasa menolong beb. Sape yang tahu apa yang Tuhan tengah
buat sekarang ni untuk manusia yang yakin dengan Dia, memang akan terkejut dan seronok sampai mati beb :D

Hidup Di Dunia Bukan Untuk Diri Sendiri Sahaja

Isnin lalu aku dah buat satu keputusan yang agak besar. Mungkin juga pelik. Mungkin juga mengikut emosi.

Tapi yang nyatanya aku buat keputusan itu bukanlah 100% untuk kepentingan diri sendiri.

Keputusan yang aku buat itu sebenarnya lebih banyak dipengaruhi oleh kerana aku dah tak tahan melihat penderitaan jiwa rakan-rakan aku.

Aku sedih. Aku kecewa. Aku sangat kecewa. Aku tak sanggup lagi melihat rakan-rakan aku dilayan sesuka hati bagaikan mereka tiada kehidupan yang lain.

Jadi akhirnya aku memutuskan untuk pergi, agar aku tidak lagi dapat melihat riak wajah sedih mereka yang seringkali tertekan dengan keadaan di situ.

Four Reasons to Quit Right Now

“For long decades we were shackled by a system under which no worker could quit work of his own accord… it was an insane piece of daring to protest in the place where you lived or worked.”

Alexander Solzhenistyn , The Gulag Archipelago

1. There is nothing to fear but fear itself

“But I can’t leave this job” you say! Perhaps this job is not as bad as your last and you’re afraid that your next move could end up taking you backwards? Or perhaps you fear that your next step will be onto a career escalator that will whisk you upwards faster than you can cope?

Aung San Suu Kyi has had a great deal to be scared of in her fight to overturn the brutal military dictatorship in her native Burma (now renamed Myanmar). Her party won the election of 1990, but as she had been placed under house arrest since 1989 she was not allowed to take power. Suu Kyi says, “Free men are the oppressed who go on trying”. This observation had been already codified in the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights. It states that “every individual and organ of society” should strive to promote the basic rights and freedoms to which all human beings are entitled, regardless of who they are or where they found themselves.

By exercising your right to quit your job and biting the hand that holds your lead, you will leave behind whatever holds you back and crushes your spirit, action that will make the world a better, more liberated place. In stark contrast, deciding to do nothing, to stay put or give in your anxiety about moving on and you become just another means for despair and stagnation to gain a firmer foothold on society and the world at large.

2. Quitting your job is an exercise in freedom

Alexander Solzhenistyn, the Soviet dissident who catalogued the ‘full loathsomeness’ of the Soviet state, observed that one of totalitarian society’s favourite techniques is the restriction it places on the freedom to choose where to work and when to leave. Resigning simply was not possible in the Soviet Union. Workers had to stay in their assigned job until they were given another, retired or died. Stirring up too much trouble (or any trouble at all) would mean forced relocation to an unbearably harsh prison camp, years of hard labour and almost certain death. People have lived, worked and died without the freedom to quit their job as and when they choose. Even if you believe that it is practically or financially impossible for you to escape a particular job, your situation is infinitely better than many people in the past could have dreamed of.

Quitting is the purest expression of personal freedom at work and one of the few means of protesting against poor conditions or stupid management. Big business has longs for flexible employment markets that are compatible with the economic liberalisation and frictionless flow of capital that exists between companies and nations. Organisatons that are free to hire and fire employees at will have an advantage over their more cautious competitors: they can shed personnel to boost profits in hard times and limit the cost and rights of employees when the order book is full once more. This dual strategy of fragmenting, disarming and then shrinking the workforce at will has flourished wherever workers have become disunited and unable to organise themselves effectively.

Of course, it was never meant to turn out like this. One conception of the flexible workforce relied on well-trained employees who were able to adapt to changing commercial conditions and technology throughout their working lives. In fact, this may be the case for portfolio people with qualifications and connection who are able to spread themselves thinly across a number of projects. Unfortunately, for the rest of us, flexibility means that employers prefer to dip into the labour pool when they know workers can be laid off or given unfavourable terms and longer hours. The training that any meaningful career relies upon is dispensed with as an unprofitable luxury – several studies have argued that a ‘flexible labour market’ and the ‘learning society’ our politicians insist is the way forward are mutually exclusive.

Employees need to think about adopting a similarly ruthless approach when dealing with their employers. Corporations currently benefit from many of the legal rights that people enjoy, but as an individual, YOU are what matters in the sort of society most people would prefer to live and work in. If you think you are a valuable employee but are being treated on a par with stationery or office furniture, it’s time to go somewhere better. Your present employer will surely reap what they sow eventually, why stick around?

3. Winners Quit

You wouldn’t be visiting I-resign.com and you certainly would not be reading this article if you were entirely happy with your present circumstances. No, you’d probably rather be somewhere else right now, doing something more interesting, surrounded by people you like and respect. Well, what are you waiting for? Are you pushing that pen or is it pulling you into the grave? After all, winners do quit. Successful, contented people do not waste their time doing things they don’t like or leave them hopeless. Continued to exposure to a bad job and nasty boss can ravage the mind and body with stress related ailments and so it’s absolutely imperative that you get out under your own power before you die with your tie on.

A human being at rest generates a kilowatt of heat. There is no internationally recognised unit of human potential, talent or imagination but the chances are that your employer is not paying what they owe you. Convince yourself of your worth and charge accordingly. Even if you have a rotten personality and looks that would cheer two tied sacks of shit, for the sake of millions of years of painstaking evolution, make the best of yourself. Is your current job setting you up for a bright future in fertile, sunlit uplands or is it a rocky slope down to the shadowy gully of career extinction?

4. You’ll actually enjoy handing in your notice

Quote Of The Day

“It is better to die on your feet than live on your knees”

Aku Lebih Islam Dari Kau

Pernahkah anda mendengar pernyataan begitu? Pernah ada sesiapakah yang menyatakan ayat tersebut kepada anda?

Rasanya tidak ramai yang pernah mengalaminya. Aku pun tidak pernah.

Tapi pernahkah anda berjumpa dengan sesiapa yang berperangai seperti di dalam lubuk hatinya berkata “Aku lebih Islam dari orang lain”

Yakni orang yang kononnya merekalah yang hebat, merekalah yang alim, dan merekalah yang “benar-benar Islam”.

Malahan mereka juga merasakan yang ilmu agama mereka lebih tinggi daripada Ustaz ataupun Ustazah yang benar-benar bertauliah.

Dan dengan tertanamnya sikap “Aku lebih Islam dari kau” di dalam hati mereka, mereka memandang rendah orang lain. Dengan sewenang-wenangnya menilai orang lain walaupun baru saja mengenali seseorang itu dalam tempoh yang singkat.

Dengan sesuka hatinya mereka menggelar orang lain (termasuk yang baru pertama kali bertemu) sebagai bohsia, serta lain-lain perkataaan / gelaran yang negatif.

Mengapa perlu bersikap begitu?

Apakah maksud “lebih Islam dari orang lain”?

Ingatlah, walaupun kita ini bersembahyang, berkawan dengan Ustaz / Ustazah / orang-orang alim, ataupun memiliki ilmu yang tinggi berkenaan agama, namun, janganlah sesekali menanamkan pemikiran “Aku lebih Islam dari kau” di dalam lubuk hati.

Sedangkan Nabi kita pun tidak pernah berkata;

“Aku lebih Islam dari manusia lain”

K bye.

Berani Kerana Benar

berani kerana benar, takut kerana salah. apabila anda yakin anda memang betul, tapi dalam masa yang sama anda merasakan tiada sesiapa yang dibelakang anda, maka ingatlah kepada Allah Tuhanmu. Allah sentiasa bersama kamu. Allah Maha Mengetahui. yakinlah kepadaNya.

Yakinlah.

Pasti satu hari nanti, yang benar akan menang, dan yang berpura-pura akan tewas, sama ada secara mendadak, ataupun secara perlahan-lahan.

Maka yakinlah kepada Allah Tuhanmu.

Assalamualaikum ;)
