Suatu malam, seorang pemuda datang ke sebuah restoran dan membeli beberapa ketul ayam goreng. Ia membawa ayam gorengnya ke taman, untuk dinikmati bersama kekasihnya di bawah sinar rembulan yang romantis. Ketika membuka bungkusan ayam goreng itu, pemuda itu terkejut Bukan ayam yang didapatinya, melainkan wang hasil penjualan restoran itu sebanyak RM1000. Pemuda itu kemudian mengembalikan wang itu dan meminta ayam goreng sebagai gantinya.Pemilik restoran, merasa kagum atas kejujuran si pemuda, menanyakan namanya dan mengatakan hendak menelefon wartawan Metro dan TV3 agar membuat cerita tentang si pemuda. Ia akan menjadi pahlawan, sebuah contoh nilai kejujuran dan moral yang akan menjadi contoh kepada yang lain!Namun pemuda yang sedang lapar itu menolaknya. "Kekasihku sedang menunggu . Aku hanya inginkan ayam gorengku."Pemilik restoran menjadi semakin kagum atas sikap si pemuda yang begitu rendah hati. Ia terus memohon agar diizinkan menceritakan kejadian itu kepada wartawan. Pada saat itulah si pemuda jujur menjadi marah dan meminta ayam gorengnya."Aku tidak mengerti" kata pemilik restoran. "Anda adalah satu-satunya pemuda jujur di tengah dunia yang tidak jujur! Ini merupakan suatu kesempatan yang baik untuk mengatakan kepada dunia bahawa masih ada orang-orang jujur yang mau bertindak benar. Saya mohon, beritahukan nama anda dan juga nama wanita itu. Apakah ia isterimu?""Itulah masalahnya," kata si pemuda. "Isteriku ada di rumah dan wanita di dalam kereta itu adalah kekasihku. Sekarang berikan ayamku agar aku dapat pergi dari sini." Hohoho jujur apakebendanya...

....Puasa TapI Tak SOlat....

Soalan; ustaz, apakah diterima puasa orang yg sengaja meninggalkan solat? kerana saya melihat ramai orang yg berpusa tapi tidak mengerjakan solat.

Jawapan;

Orang yang meninggalkan solat jika ia meninggalkannya kerana mengingkari atau menolak kewajipan tersebut, maka ia murtad dari agama dengan sepakat (ijmak) para ulamak. Orang yang murtad tidak sah ibadahnya termasuk puasa.Adapun jika ia meninggalkan solat kerana malas atau segan (yakni ia masih mengakui kewajipan solat, cuma ia malas melakukannya), maka para ulamak berbeza pandangan tentang hukumnya;
1. Imam Ahmad berpandangan; ia adalah kafir.2. Jumhur ulamak berpandangan; ia fasiq, yakni tidaklah menjadi kafir, akan tetapi telah melakukan dosa amat besar.Berpegang kepada pandangan Imam Ahmad tersebut, maka sebahagian ulamak hari ini (terutamannya dari Arab Saudi seperti Syeikh Bin Baz, Ibnu Usaimin dan sebagainya) berpendapat; orang yang tidak menunaikan solat fardhu, tidak sah puasanya, malah juga ibadah-ibadahnya yang lain (zakat, haji, sedekah dan amal-amal soleh selainnya) sehinggalah ia bertaubat kepada Allah dan kembali mengerjakan solat. Berkata Syeikh Ibnu Uthaimin; “Jika kamu berpuasa tanpa mengerakan solat, kami ingin menegaskan kepada kamu; sesungguhnya puasa kamu adalah batal/rosak, tidak sah, tidak memberi manfaat kepada kamu di sisi Allah dan tidak mendekatkan kamu kepadaNya…” (Fatawa Ulama’ Baladil-Haram, hlm. 198).Adapun berdasarkan pandangan jumhur ulamak (yang tidak menghukum kafir orang yang meninggalkan solat itu); puasa orang itu sah jika ia memenuhi rukun-rukun puasa yang ditetapkan dan tidak melakukan sebarang perkara yang membatalkan puasa. Maksud sah ialah; dia tidak dituntut lagi mengqadha/mengganti puasanya. Namun perlu dipersoalkan; adakah puasanya itu akan diterima oleh Allah sedangkan ia telah mengabaikan ibadah yang cukup besar dalam Islam iaitu solat? Tidak semua ibadah yang sah diterima oleh Allah. Contohnya, seseorang yang mengerjakan solat dengan riyak; solatnya sah (dari sudut Fiqh) apabila cukup syarat-syarat dan rukun-rukunnya, namun solatnya ditolak oleh Allah kerana riyak tersebut. Kerana itu, ulamak-ulamak al-Azhar (seperti Syeikh ‘Atiyah Saqar (bekas ketua Lujnah Fatwa al-Azhar), Dr. Ahmad asy-Syirbasi (bekas pensyarah di Universti al-Azhar), Dr. Muhammad Bakr Ismail, Dr. Muhammad ‘Ali Jum’ah dan ramai lagi), walaupun pendapat mereka tidak sekeras ulamak-ulamak dari Arab Saudi tadi, tetapi mereka menegaskan; “Orang yang tidak mengerjakan solat sekalipun puasanya sah tetapi tidak diterima Allah (yakni tidak diberi pahala)”. Syeikh ‘Atiyah Saqar menulis dalam fatwanya; “Sesiapa berpuasa tanpa mengerjakan solat, puasanya adalah sah dan tidak wajib ia mengulanginya. Akan tetapi dari segi penerimaan (Allah) terhadapnya, maka hadis Nabi s.a.w. menunjukkan ia tidak diterima…”. Hadis yang dimaksudkan oleh Syeikh ‘Atiyah itu ialah sabda Nabi s.a.w. (bermaksud);“Sesiapa yang tidak meninggalkan kata-kata dusta dan melakukan pendustaan, maka bagi Allah tidak ada keperluan dalam ia meninggalkan makan dan minumnya (yakni Allah tidak berhajat kepada puasanya)” (Riwayat Imam Bukhari, Abu Daud, at-Tirmizi dan lain-lain dari Abu Hurairah r.a.).Jika dengan kerana akhlak mazmumah (dusta dan sebagainya) telah pun menyebabkan puasa ditolak oleh Allah, maka lebih-lebih lagilah dengan meninggalkan solat fardhu yang dosanya amatlah besar, berkali-kali ganda lebih besar dari dosa kerana akhlak mazmumah itu.Wallahu a’lam.

...LoVE sEEMS Like WaItINg FOR a bUS......

Bila bas tu datang, awak nengok bas tu dan awak kata pada diri awak, "Eee... penuhnya... tak de tempat duduk." Jadik, awak katakan pada diri awak, "Saya akan tunggu bas yg lain." Awak pun biarkan bas tu berlalu dan awaktunggu pulak bas yg lain.Kemudian, datang pulak bas yg kedua.Awak nengok bas tu dan awak akan cakap, "Eee... bas ni buruk sgt... mesti tak selesa. Dan mungkin bas ni akan rosak kat tengah jalan." Jadi, awak pun biarkan bas buruk tu berlalu dan awak bercadang untuk tunggu bas yang seterusnya.Setelah beberapa ketika, datang lagi sebuah bas.Bas yg datang tu kosong, tak penuh dan tak seburuk bas yg tadi tapi kali ni awak kata, "Emmm... tak de air-cond... cuaca pulak panas. Lebih baik saya tunggu bas yg lain." Dan sekali lagi awak biarkan bas tu berlalu dan awak bercadang utk menanti bas yg seterusnya.Tiba-tiba awan mula gelap, cuaca semakin mendung dan baru awak perasan yg awak pula dah terlambat rupanya. Awak mula panik dan terus naik bas yg datang ketika itu, walaupun bas itu tak sebegitu sempurna.Dan kemudian barulah awak sedar bahawa... awak dah naik bas yg salah. Jadi, selama ni awak dah membazir banyak masa dan wang untuk menunggu apa yg awak nak.Walaupun yg datang tu adalah bas yang berair-cond, adakah awak dpt pastikan bahawa bas tu tak akan rosak di tengah jalan atau mungkin bas tu tak terlalu sejuk untuk awak?Jadik, mengingini apa yg awak idamkan tu memang tak salah. Tapi, tak salah juga kalau anda sanggup memberi satu peluang pada orang lain, kan?Sekiranya awak dapati "bas" itu tak sesuai dengan awak, apa yg perlu awak lakukan hanya tekan loceng dan turun daripada bas tu.Tapi... saya pasti awak semua tentu ada pengalaman yg macam ni. Awak nampak sebuah bas datang (tentulah bas yg awak nanti-nanti kan), awak tahan bas tu tapi pemandu bas tu pulak buat tak faham dan pura-pura buat tak nampak awak dan terus berlalu tinggalkan awak!... .Bila ada bas yang lalu melintasi saya macam tu, apa yang saya lakukan ialah BERJALAN! Bodoh sebenarnya untuk mengejar bas tu sebab setiap kali, awak akan terjatuh dan menyakiti diri awak sendiri.Jadi, bercinta tu adalah ibarat menunggu bas, sama ada awak nak naik dan beri peluang pada bas tu... semuanya terpulang pada diri awak. Dan bila awak berjalan, awak sebenarnya cuba melarikan diri daripada cinta!

".....pUnK RocK MuSic......"


Punk rock lyrics are typically frank and confrontational; compared to other popular music genres, they frequently comment on social and political issues. Trend-setting songs such as The Clash's "Career Opportunities" and Chelsea's "Right to Work" deal with unemployment and the grim realities of urban life.[ Especially in early British punk, a central goal was to outrage and shock the mainstream. The Sex Pistols classics "Anarchy in the U.K." and "God Save the Queen" openly disparage the British political system and social mores. There is also a characteristic strain of anti-sentimental depictions of relationships and sex, exemplified by "Love Comes in Spurts", written by Richard Hell and recorded by him with The Voidoids. Anomie, variously expressed in the poetic terms of Hell's "Blank Generation" and the bluntness of The Ramones' "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue", is a common theme. Identifying punk with such topics aligns with the view expressed by Search and Destroy founder V. Vale: "Punk was a total cultural revolt. It was a hardcore confrontation with the black side of history and culture, right-wing imagery, sexual taboos, a delving into it that had never been done before by any generation in such a thorough way. However, many punk rock lyrics deal in more traditional rock 'n' roll themes of courtship, heartbreak, and hanging out; the approach ranges from the deadpan, aggressive simplicity of Ramones standards such as "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriendto the more unambiguously sincere style of many later pop punk groups.
In 1976 the Ramones, along with British punk band the Sex Pistols, went on a tour of the United Kingdom. The tour was widely credited for inspiring the first wave of English punk bands such as The Clash, The Damned, and The Buzzcocks. In England, the music became a more violent and political form of expression, represented with the Sex Pistols first two singles "Anarchy in the U.K." and "God Save the Queen". Despite an airplay ban on the BBC, the records rose to the top chart position in the UK. Many in the original punk rock scene claimed that the Sex Pistols and other popular punk bands of the time were compromising a newly emerging underground DIY ethic of punk rock. This phenomenon was the origin of the phrase "Punks Not Dead." The Exploited wrote a song entitled 'Punks Not Dead' which immortalized the saying and claimed that even with the advent of more popular punk rock that hardcore punk was now emerging to raise the level of aggression in punk and take it underground once again. Other bands, like The Clash, were less nihilistic, more overtly political and idealistic. As the Sex Pistols toured America, they spread their music to the West Coast. Before, punk was mostly an East Coast phenomenon in the US, with scenes in New York and Washington D.C.. In the late '70s, California punk bands such as the Dead Kennedys, X, Fear, the Germs, Circle Jerks and Black Flag, gained greater exposure.
Punk's next evolution saw its rise in the underground movement of hardcore punk, a subgenre that originated in North America around 1980. The new sound was generally thicker, heavier and faster than earlier punk rock. Notable bands in this subgenre include Black Flag, Minor Threat and Bad Brains, among numerous others. The songs are usually short, fast and loud, covering topics ranging from apathy, boredom, politics, personal freedom, violence, social alienation, straight edge, war, and the hardcore subculture itself. Hardcore spawned several fusion genres and subgenres, some of which had mainstream success, such as skate punk, melodic hardcore and metalcore.
Since punk rock's initial popularity in the 1970s and the renewed interest created by the punk revival of the 1990s, punk rock continues to fight to remain an underground form of anti-corporate expression. This has resulted in several evolved strains of hardcore punk, such as D-beat (a distortion-heavy subgenre influenced by the UK band Discharge), anarcho-punk (such as Crass), grindcore (such as Napalm Death), and crust punk. The latter of which is a politicized fusion of hardcore and extreme metal which has arguably become a dominant voice for the modern political punk movement. Crust punk is typified by bands such as Doom, Amebix, Nausea, and Behind Enemy Lines. These strains remain largely unrecognizable to the majority of the general public and tend to focus on issues such as anarchism, freeganism, animal rights, sexism, and racism.

" The Supremes"

The Supremes were an American female singing group, and the most successful vocal group during the sixties, second only to The Beatles.[1] Active from 1959 until 1977, the Supremes performed, at various times, doo-wop, pop, soul, Broadway show tunes and disco. The Supremes were the most commercially successful of the Motown Records' signature acts, and charted twelve American number-one hits between 1964 and 1969.[2] Many of their singles were written and produced by Motown's main songwriting and production team, Holland-Dozier-Holland. The mid-1960s crossover success of the Supremes paved the way for future black soul and R&B acts in gaining mainstream audiences.
The Supremes formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1959 and began as a quartet called The Primettes. Founding members Florence Ballard, Mary Wilson, Diana Ross and Betty McGlown, all from the Brewster-Douglass public housing project in Detroit,[3] were the sister act to The Primes (with Paul Williams and Eddie Kendricks, who would go on to form The Temptations).[3] In 1960, Barbara Martin replaced McGlown, and the group signed with Motown in 1961 as The Supremes. Martin left in early 1962, and Ross, Ballard and Wilson carried on as a trio. Achieving success in the mid-1960s with Ross as lead singer, Motown president Berry Gordy renamed the group Diana Ross & the Supremes in 1967 and replaced Ballard with Cindy Birdsong. Ross left the group for a successful solo career in 1970 and was replaced by Jean Terrell.
After 1972, the lineup of the Supremes changed frequently, with Lynda Laurence, Scherrie Payne and Susaye Greene all becoming members before the group ended its eighteen-year existence in 1977.

Comedy has a popular meaning (any discourse generally intended to amuse, especially in television, film, and stand-up comedy). This must be carefully distinguished from its academic definition, namely the comic theatre, whose Western origins are found in Ancient Greece. In the Athenian democracy, the public opinion of voters was remarkably influenced by the political satire performed by the comic poets at the theaters.[1]
The theatrical genre can be simply described as a dramatic performance which pits two societies against each other in an amusing agon or conflict. Northrop Frye famously depicted these two opposing sides as a "Society of Youth" and a "Society of the Old" (The Anatomy of Criticism, 1957), but this dichotomy is seldom described as an entirely satisfactory explanation.
A later view characterizes the essential agon of comedy as a struggle between a relatively powerless youth and the societal conventions that pose obstacles to his hopes; in this sense, the youth is understood to be constrained by his lack of social authority, and is left with little choice but to take recourse to ruses which engender very dramatic irony which provokes laughter (Marteinson, 2006).
Much comedy contains variations on the elements of surprise, incongruity, conflict, repetitiveness, and the effect of opposite expectations, but there are many recognized genres of comedy. Satire and political satire use ironic comedy to portray persons or social institutions as ridiculous or corrupt, thus alienating their audience from the object of humor.
Parody borrows the form of some popular genre, artwork, or text but uses certain ironic changes to critique that form from within (though not necessarily in a condemning way). Screwball comedy derives its humor largely from bizarre, surprising (and improbable) situations or characters. Black comedy is defined by dark humor that makes light of so called dark or evil elements in human nature. Similarly scatological humor, sexual humor, and race humor create comedy by violating social conventions or taboos in comedic ways.
A comedy of manners typically takes as its subject a particular part of society (usually upper class society) and uses humor to parody or satirize the behavior and mannerisms of its members. Romantic comedy is a popular genre that depicts burgeoning romance in humorous terms, and focuses on the foibles of those who are falling in love.

A volcano is an opening, or rupture, in a planet's surface or crust, which allows hot, molten rock, ash, and gases to escape from below the surface. Volcanic activity involving the extrusion of rock tends to form mountains or features like mountains over a period of time.
Volcanoes are generally found where tectonic plates are diverging or converging. A mid-oceanic ridge, for example the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, has examples of volcanoes caused by "divergent tectonic plates" pulling apart; the Pacific Ring of Fire has examples of volcanoes caused by "convergent tectonic plates" coming together. By contrast, volcanoes are usually not created where two tectonic plates slide past one another. Volcanoes can also form where there is stretching and thinning of the Earth's crust (called "non-hotspot intraplate volcanism"), such as in the African Rift Valley, the Wells Gray-Clearwater volcanic field and the Rio Grande Rift in North America and the European Rhine Graben with its Eifel volcanoes.
Volcanoes can be caused by "mantle plumes". These so-called "hotspots" , for example at Hawaii, can occur far from plate boundaries. Hotspot volcanoes are also found elsewhere in the solar system, especially on rocky planets and moons.
