"..supaya dia mati dengan serta merta'

Posted: 10 Jul 2012 09:28 PM PDT


Today the Star has published a list of Past deviationist happenings.  This is after yesterday's report about the guy who attacked the PM's Department with samurai swords on Monday. The Star's list includes seven other weird characters who all believed about the same things as the guy who attacked the PM's Department. 

I have a question for everyone, especially the Muslims, to ponder.  All these people ended up believing the same weird things (more or less). None of them knew each other, they were not friends or neighbours. So where did they all go to learn all these similar deviant beliefs? 

Think very carefully. Did they all go to a special 'sekolah ajaran sesat'? Are there special 'sekolah ajaran sesat' which teach them all these strange things? The answer is a flat NO.  

There is no special "sekolah ajaran sesat" in the country.  So where do they go to learn these strange things? Think carefully. Where would the "samurai man" have learned his deviationist teachings?  They listen to the same religious teachers and preachers. They listen to the same ceramah  that everyone else does. They listen to the same ideas that everyone else listens to as well. 

Dont believe me? Here is the evidence :  after the Kampong Memali clash the PAS declared 'Ibrahim Libya' a syahid. Why? Because PAS and Ibrahim Libya believe in the same things. They read the same books.  

The only thing that is preventing many others from becoming equally deviant is because 

i.     we have regular 9-5 jobs or we run businesses
ii.    we have a Western based education
iii.   we live in a modern world and 
iv.   we are forced to interact with other human beings, especially non Muslims. 

All these things keep us sane and sound and on the straight path.  If we dont have i - iv above, tak tahulah what will happen. Maybe samurai swords all the way.

The title of this Blog "..supaya dia mati dengan serta merta" is not aimed at the samurai sword man. Not at all. This is a translation of a verse in the Quran - from Surah Al Haqqah or Surah No. 69.  This is a warning that was issued to the Rasul or Prophet.  Allah threatens to kill the Prophet  "....supaya dia mati dengan serta merta".  

My dear Muslim friends, why does Allah threaten to kill the Prophet of Islam ?  

There is a great lesson here for all Muslims.  First let us look at the 10 relevant verses from Surah Al Haqqah ie verses 38 until 47. (Surah 69 : 38 - 47).  

To avoid accusations of being selective in choosing translations etc I have extracted the verses from FIVE different translations ie three English translations, one Malay translation and one Indonesian translation. Here they are :

1. Malay translation (from readthequran.org)  Surah 69 : 38 - 47


38 Maka Aku bersumpah: Demi segala yang kamu melihatnya, -
39   Dan segala yang kamu tidak melihatnya, -
40 Bahawa sesungguhnya Al-Quran itu ialah yang disampaikan oleh Rasul yang mulia.
41 Dan bukanlah Al-Quran itu perkataan seorang penyair  amatlah sedikit kamu beriman.
42 Dan juga bukanlah Al-Quran itu perkataan seorang pawang amatlah sedikit kamu mengambil peringatan.
43 diturunkan dari Allah Tuhan sekalian alam.
44 Dan kalaulah (dia) mengatakan atas nama Kami sebarang kata-kata rekaan
45 Sudah tentu Kami akan menyentapnya, dengan kekuasaan Kami
46 Kemudian sudah tentu Kami akan memutuskan tali jantungnya (supaya dia mati dengan serta-merta);
47 Maka tidak ada seorangpun di antara kamu yang dapat menghalang daripada menimpanya.


Here is the Indonesian translation :


2. Indonesian translation (from readthequran.org)


38 Maka Aku bersumpah dengan apa yang kamu lihat.
39 Dan dengan apa yang tidak kamu lihat.
40 Sesungguhnya Al Qur'an itu adalah benar-benar wahyu  (kepada) Rasul yang mulia,
41 dan Al Qur'an itu bukanlah perkataan seorang penyair. Sedikit sekali kamu beriman kepadanya.
42 Dan bukan pula perkataan tukang tenung. Sedikit sekali kamu mengambil pelajaran daripadanya.
43 Ia adalah wahyu yang diturunkan dari Tuhan semesta alam.
44 Seandainya dia mengada-adakan sebagian perkataan atas (nama) Kami (taqawwala alaina)
45 Niscaya benar-benar kami pegang dia pada tangan kanannya.
46 Kemudian benar-benar Kami potong urat tali jantungnya.
47 Maka sekali-kali tidak ada seorang pun dari kamu yang dapat menghalangi (Kami), dari pemotongan urat nadi itu.

Here is an English translation 



5. Translation by Abdullah Yusuf Ali


69:38 So I do call to witness what ye see,
69:39 And what ye see not,
69:40 That this is verily the word of an honoured apostle;
69:41 It is not the word of a poet: little it is ye believe!
69:42 Nor is it the word of a soothsayer: little admonition it is ye receive.
69:43 (This is) a Message sent down from the Lord of the Worlds.
69:44 And if the apostle were to invent any sayings in Our name (taqawwala alaina)
69:45 We should certainly seize him by his right hand,
69:46 And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his heart:
69:47 Nor could any of you withhold him (from Our wrath).




6. Translation by Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall :


69:38 But nay! I swear by all that ye see
69:39 And all that ye see not
69:40 That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger.
69:41 It is not poet's speech - little is it that ye believe!
69:42 Nor diviner's speech - little is it that ye remember!
69:43 It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.
69:44 And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us,
69:45 We assuredly had taken him by the right hand
69:46 And then severed his life-artery,
69:47 And not one of you could have held Us off from him.

7. Translation by Shakir 

69:38 But nay! I swear by that which you see,
69:39 And that which you do not see.
69:40 Most surely, it is the Word brought by an honored Apostle,
69:41 And it is not the word of a poet; little is it that you believe;
69:42 Nor the word of a soothsayer; little is it that you mind.
69:43 It is a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.
69:44 And if he had fabricated against Us some of the sayings,
69:45 We would certainly have seized him by the right hand,
69:46 Then We would certainly have cut off his aorta.
69:47 And not one of you could have withheld Us from him.

Verses 38 until 47 of this Surah Al Haqqah (by the way Al Haqqah means 'The Certainty' or 'The Sure Reality') are actually an oath or swearing by Allah the Creator.  

Allah says He calls to witness "by all that you can see and by all that you cannot see." This covers the entire universe. It is the biggest oath that Allah the Creator is swearing upon. Which means this oath by Allah the Creator is very, very big and important. So what is this oath that Allah is swearing upon?

That the Quran is certainly the word of a honored Messenger (innahu la qawlu rasoolin kareem)

Innahu    -  Most certainly
la qawlu -  this is the speech 
rasoolin -  of a Rasul / Messenger
kareem -   who is honored 

The Quran is not the word of some soothsayer or a poet.  If the Rasul had invented any sayings and then attributed them to Allah (taqawwala alaina) then the Rasul would have been in trouble. The Quran says :

69:46 And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his heart (Yusuf Ali)

69:46 Kemudian sudah tentu Kami akan memutuskan tali jantungnya (Malay)

69:46 Kemudian benar-benar Kami potong urat tali jantungnya. (Indonesian)

The Malay translation also adds inside brackets  (supaya dia mati dengan serta-merta).

So my dear Muslim friends who can think : please figure this out.  After receiving this type of a death threat from Allah Almighty, do you think that the Rasul would dare to tell the people, 

"Dear Muslims, I have something extra to add, and this is also from Allah.."

So the enxt time your hear your ostat telling you :

i. mengikut kehendak Islam
ii. mengikut kehendak syariat
iii. mengikut pandangan si polan si polan
iv. mengikut this and mengikut that

please bear this in mind :  

69:44 And if the apostle were to invent any sayings in Our name (taqawwala alaina)
69:45 We should certainly seize him by his right hand,
69:46 And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his heart:
(Abdullah Yusuf Ali)

Another Kidnap - Police Act Super Fast

Posted: 10 Jul 2012 07:27 PM PDT


Here is The Star :

  • JOHOR BARU: Alert bystanders led to the arrest of a man who had jumped into a Mini convertible and driven off, taking its female driver with him.
  • A police team rushed into action and managed to rescue the woman about an hour after the incident.
  • The 35-year-old man was arrested and a revolver was seized from him.
  • ..the drama began when the 26-year-old businesswoman was getting into her car in Taman Sentosa.  The woman was believed to have just returned from a late supper.
  • "The man who was armed with a .38 pistol hopped into the convertible and forced her into the passenger seat.
  • "He then sped off with the woman still in her seat. Fortunately, we were informed by the public and immediately launched a manhunt.
  • "car was found in Jalan Tampoi Lama, about 16km away. arrested the suspect and seized .38 Revolver along with three live bullets" 

OK first of all lets not get caught up in technical crap whether this was an abduction, a kidnapping, an attempted robbery etc (which all carry different jail terms and punishments). The guy jumped into the woman's car, he then drove off with her. He also had a gun with three bullets.  This is a very, very bad guy.

I believe this guy can be sentenced to death just on the gun and bullets alone. Kidnapping also begets a mandatory hanging. So just hang him and please publicise the fact. Maybe we should have one of those Taliban style public hangings in the stadium.

Only then will other kidnappers be aware that you can hang for kidnapping, abduction, possession of a gun etc.  Lets not waste time on this.

First of all condolences are due to the victim who must have been traumatised. Women must really take care and dont put yourselves at easy risk. Driving late at night in an expensive  open top car is surely inviting trouble. Be careful.  Senantiasa gunakan akal.

Congratulations are due to the people who acted fast and called the Police and gave the right information. And congratulations are due to the Police who acted fast and nabbed this culprit and also rescued the woman safe and unharmed.

This is a big success for the public and the Police.  We still have to ask ourselves why are there so many kidnappings?
