Hukuman berat mampu membendung masalah pembuangan bayi


Permasaalahan pembuangan bayi yang kian meruncing di Negara ini adalah sesuatu perkara yang amat mendukacitakan bagi sesebuah Negara Islam. Malah, Kebiasaannya, mereka yang terlibat dalam jenayah itu adalah dari orang Melayu yang beragama Islam. Hanya pasangan yang belum berkahwin sahaja yang tergamak membuang bayi, dimana mereka ingin menutup malu ataupun tidak mahu menangung beban untuk menjaga bayi tidakkan mudah diambil iaitu buang bayi. Mungkin hukuman yang ada sekarang ini masih belum cukup menakutkan mereka. Tetapi tidak sedarkah mereka akan tindakan yang mereka lakukan ini dengan balasan yang akan menimpa mereka kelak.

Berhubung dengan hukuman syariah yang menyatakan mana-mana lelaki atau perempuan yang melakukan zina sekiranya disabitkan kesalahan boleh didenda tidak melebihi RM5000, atau dipenjara selama tiga tahun atau disebat tidak melebihi enam kali sebatan atau mana-mana kombinasi hukuman itu. Begitu juga dengan hukuman yang diletakkan bagi seorang wanita yang melahirkan anak yang cukup sifat dalam tempoh kurang enam bulan qamariah daripada tarikh pernikahannya atau hamil luar nikah akibat persetubuhan. Cuma jumlah hukuman penjara tidak melebihi tiga tahun. Malah, jarang sekali kita lihat seseorang itu disabitkan kesalahan berikut jika dibandingkan dengan jenayah yang berlaku.

Apakah hukuman yang diletakkan mahkamah syariah ini berpatutan dengan jenayah yang mereka lakukan? Dimanakah letaknya nilai kemanusiaan sekiranya nilai nyawa bayi yang teraniaya dibayar dengan wang ringgit sahaja? Menurut statistik yang diperoleh dari Ibu Pejabat Polis Bukit Aman, kes pembuangan bayi dari tahun 2000 hingga 2006 adalah seramai 580 bayi. Manakala, statistik yang diperoleh dari Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara pula menyatakan seramai 257,411 sijil pendaftaran kelahiran anak tidak sah taraf dicatatkan dari tahun 2000 hingga julai 2008.

Jumlah yang dicatatkan ini amatlah membimbangkan kerana ia kian bertambah dari masa ke semasa. Ini membuktikan mereka semakin berani menentang undang-undang yang sedia ada. Hanya sekiranya kita mempraktikkan hukuman Islam yang sebenar iaitu Hudud dalam sistem perundangan syariah Malaysia maka jenayah ini dapat ditangani. Hukum hudud bagi pesalah zina yang sudah berkahwin adalah rejam dengan batu sehingga mati dari empat penjuru dengan seluruh badan mereka ditimbus dengan tanah. Penzina yang belum berkahwin pula disebat sebanyak 100 kali dikhalayak ramai. Kes pembuangan bayi pula boleh menyebabkan seseorang itu dianggap sebagai pembunuh dan hukuman yang dikenakan bagi pembunuh ialah qisas dimana hukuman yang dijatuhkan adalah dibalas dengan bunuh juga.

Hukuman Hudud ini sebenarnya bukan sesuatu yang kejam seperti yang dinyatakan oleh sesetengah pihak. Hukum hudud adalah bersifat mencegah dari mengubati. Hal ini kerana tiada siapa yang berani untuk menghadapi hukuman tersebut dan mereka pastinya akan mengelakkan diri dari terjebak ke lembah yang boleh membinasakan diri mereka. Hukuman ini juga akan dijadikan pengajaran kerana setiap hukuman hudud dilakukan dikhalayak ramai. Oleh itu, hukuman ini perlu diaplikasikan kepada seluruh umat manusia, baik kaum muslimin mahupun sebaliknya kerana syariat Islam diturunkan untuk seluruh manusia. Kita sebagai muslim haruslah yakin bahawa undang-undang Allah sahajalah yang akan membawa keharmonian dan berusaha untuk mengakkan syariat Islam dimuka bumi ini.

The Curse of 'Mokhtar Dahari'

image from : google.com

There is any kind of curse in this world? Most people must not believe about those kinds of things. Yes, it is true we can curse something as we please. But is it really happening? That is what I like to express here and let all of you my reader to make a deep thought about it. Before I start any further about ‘The Curse of Mokhtar Dahari’, I better off give out some introduction about late Mokhtar Dahari. I know many people out there that have not been heard about his name before. Actually he is already passed away 17 years ago. It may not nice to talk about someone that already passed away, but I have no bad intentions when writing this story. I just want to share something that seems to be related between him and football in Malaysia.

Back to the introduction about him, he is a great football player have ever lived in Malaysia and also known as ‘Supermokh’ by the local here. There is no one can take his place in the field and until now, no other football player in Malaysia can compare to him. He was one of the best players in Asia in 1970s. In international games, he helped the Malaysia national football team score a total of 125 goals in 167 caps.

The question here is why Malaysia football team today is so weak compare to the olden days. Normally, everything will always getting better from time to time. This is where I would like to relate the curse that Mokhtar Dahari made in his life. Well, hard for me to say whether it is true or not because I cannot get the authentic evidence out of this matter. From what I heard, a rumour told he said that Malaysia football industry will never make a progress because back in the days, Malaysia refuses to send their football team to a World Cup tournament. There also a rumour said that Malaysia football team will be at the same level as long as Mokhtar Dahari was not crowned by any title like ‘Datuk’ or ‘Tan Sri’. Sometimes, I also wonder why the local government did not give him any title even he has praise the name of Malaysia in the world of sports. An addition to that, I’m very disappointed with Football Association Malaysia which did not take any action to reminisce about him. If ‘Bacaan tahlil’ ceremony could be held for artist like Sudirman, P. Ramlee and etc, why not the same thing for our late Mokhtar Dahari.

I know it may not make sense to some people but we could not put any possibility aside even it may sound silly. Just think about it, Mokhtar Dahari is a legend and has strived Malaysia football team until international. The question is where is his title or ownership? He should be awarded with ‘Datuk’ or ‘Tan Sri’ but until now, he has not gained any. This may be the curse of Mokhtar Dahari where the performance of Malaysia football team is nowhere to be proud of. Think about it…

Lomography

Hello everyone. It seems like we meet again in my second post. This time I would like to promote you all about lomography. So what lomography is? I bet many of you out there never heard about it before. First let me tell the history of lomography. It is start when two students in Vienna, Austria in the early 1990s discovered a small complex Russian camera which is known as Lomo Kompakt Automat and starts a new style of artistic photography in unusual way. It is not about perfection, sharpness and definition but it is all about how we defining life in the way we see it.


Basically, lomography is based on the photography which cameras are uses as the main device. But it is not the same as a normal camera like DSLR. The function and effect of this lomo is different. It is also not a digital device which uses film negative to snap a photo. The film that’s uses is different in every lomo camera. Both of the camera and the film are hard to find and that is the major problem for lomography industry to get well known in all over Malaysia. However, I think most people can afford to buy lomo camera because the price is not so expensive.


The lomography world has its own rule which is call as ‘10 Golden Rules’ that define their philosophy and approach towards photography. They are:
1. Take your camera everywhere you go
2. Use it any time
3. Lomography is not interference in your life, but part of it
4. Try the shot from the hip
5. Approach the objects of your lomographic desire as close as possible
6. Don’t think
7. Be fast
8. You don’t have to know beforehand what you captured on film
9. Afterwards either
10. Don’t worry about any rules

Lomo product begins with LC-A which is the most popular among the lomographers. Other than that are Diana+, colorsplash, fisheye, frogeye, supersampler, oktomat, litos and much more. Every lomo camera has its own affect that bring the beauty of image which is unpredictable, soft, vignette, multi image, and other normal flaws like distortion. Below, I will provide all of you with a few sample images of lomo camera and its affect.

The future of lomography is a bright one, judging from upcoming activities and the good mainstream attention that it gets. Even though I have not own any of this lomo camera yet, I know how interesting those lomo are. I hope one day I can own one of those or maybe make a full collection of lomo. So what else you all waiting for? Let’s go for LOMO.
