    Ustaz Sallim Jasman Sudah Keluar Hospital, Rehat Sebulan Dari Kuliah

    BERITAMediacorp: Pendakwah veteran yang juga seorang kadi terkenal, Ustaz Sallim Jasman, sudah dibenarkan keluar dari hospital, dan kini perlu berehat selama sebulan daripada tugas-tugas seperti menjalankan kuliah.

    Ustaz Sallim, yang mengalami masalah injap (valve) jantung, menjalani pembedahan memasukkan alat perentak jantung ketika dirawat selama lima hari di Hospital Besar Singapura (SGH).

    Demikian dedah anak beliau, iaitu Ustaz Muhammad Ma’az Sallim, semasa dihubungi BERITAMediacorp bagi mendapatkan perkembangan terkini mengenai keadaan Ustaz Sallim, yang keluar hospital kelmarin (4 Jan).

    Ustaz Sallim, yang kini berusia awal 70-an tahun, dimasukkan ke SGH pada Sabtu lalu (31 Dis) setelah beliau mengalami lemah-lemah badan.

    MASIH RAJIN MENGAJAR, NIKAHKAN ORANG WALAU KURANG SIHAT

    Ustaz Ma’az berkata, keluarganya menasihatkan ayahnya itu untuk menjalani pemeriksaan di hospital, setelah melihat keadaan kesihatannya itu tidak begitu baik.

    “Beliau mengalami masalah jantung yang lemah sebelum ini. Dan akhir-akhir ini, beliau aktif mengajar di kuliah-kuliah dan baru pulang dari umrah. Di samping itu, beliau juga masih menikahkan sehingga lebih 10 orang dalam seminggu,” kongsi Ustaz Ma’az.

    Disebabkan lemah jantung, Ustaz Sallim “harus memasang alat perentak jantung bagi menangani keadaan jantungnya itu,” jelas Ustaz Ma’az lagi yang juga mengikut jejak langkah ayahnya dengan menjadi naib kadi, selain memikul tugas selaku Imam Eksekutif Masjid Al-Taqua.

    Menyusuli pembedahan tersebut, Ustaz Sallim dinasihatkan oleh pihak hospital supaya banyak berehat, tambah beliau. BERITAMediacorp diberitahu, tiada pasangan yang dijadual bernikah yang terjejas dengan gangguan kesihatan Ustaz Sallim itu.

    KELUARGA MOHON MASYARAKAT DOAKAN KESIHATAN USTAZ SALLIM

    Ustaz Sallim Jasman, pernah menjadi Presiden Kanan Mahkamah Syariah dan bersara pada tahun 2006 setelah sekitar 40 tahun berkhidmat di mahkamah tersebut. Beliau kini terus aktif mengajar, antaranya di Masjid Darul Ghufran, Masjid Al-Iman, dan Masjid Assyafaah.

    Seorang yang peramah dan rajin tersenyum, perkataan ‘bersara’ nampaknya juga tiada dalam kamus Ustaz Sallim, dan merupakan antara golongan asatizah perintis Singapura sejak negara ini mencapai kemerdekaan.

    Beliau lulusan Diploma Pendidikan dari Kolej Islam Malaya. Di tengah-tengah negara berdepan dengan isu pengganasan, Ustaz Sallim juga berkhidmat sebagai salah seorang daripada kaunselor Kumpulan Pemulihan Keagamaan (RRG).

    “Kami mohon doa daripada semua agar beliau diberi kesihatan dan sokongan supaya dapat terus berbakti dan memberikan sumbangan kepada masyarakat Islam,” pinta Ustaz Ma’az menerusi BERITAMediacorp.

  • ‘My Name Is Noordin But I Am Not Muslim’

    ‘My Name Is Noordin But I Am Not Muslim’

    GEORGE TOWN: No thanks to an old error in his identity card, 34-year-old Johann Lim Noordin has been forced to put off plans to marry his girlfriend and buy property.

    And those are just two of the problems he faces, all because his name sounds Muslim although he is not.

    Lim was born to Buddhist parents in Penang and has never changed his religion. But on his MyKad, he is Johann Lim Noordin bin Billy Noordin and his religion is given as “Islam”.

    The errors were made when he applied for his MyKad at the age of 12 and he has had to live with them since.

    His problem first came under the media spotlight three years ago, but Lim said even that failed to help him resolve his problem.

    “I am not getting any younger,” he said in an interview with FMT. “Why should I have to go through so many obstacles to get my IC fixed? It should have been done easily.

    “No religious department in the country has any record of my being a Muslim. I have signed a statutory declaration proclaiming I am not Muslim. Why am I now told to go to the shariah court when I am not a Muslim?

    “My constitutional rights have been violated. No one dares to do anything to help. All they do is keep telling me to go to the shariah court.”

     

    Lim said his father was never a Muslim.

    He said an oral complaint was immediately made at the NRD when he received his MyKad in 1994.

    “When I first received my IC when I was 12, the family wanted it changed immediately,” he said. “But the department required both parents to give consent and my father at the time was living and working overseas. So we thought we would get to it when he came back.”

    Lim’s father, Billy Noordin, 64, works with drug enforcement agencies in the United States and Saudi Arabia. He is of Chinese and Indian descent.

    His mother, Lim Jee Yew, 65, is Chinese and a housewife in Penang.

    When he was 21, Lim went to the NRD to upgrade to the new MyKad. He also asked the NRD to remove his Muslim status.

    “The officer told me I could not use the name on my birth certificate. He told me to get a different name. At the time, I thought it ridiculous of the NRD to ask me to change my name; so I decided to ignore it.”

     

    More recently, he misplaced his wallet and had to get a replacement MyKad. However, the NRD told him he would have to cancel his 2011 application to amend his name in order to get a replacement.

    In desperate need of his MyKad, Lim agreed to the cancellation with a heavy heart. “So here I am, having to start all over again,” he said.

  • McDonald’s Singapore: Only Halal Cakes Allowed In Our Outlets

    McDonald’s Singapore: Only Halal Cakes Allowed In Our Outlets

    Due to the recent news of McDonalds Malaysia banning non-halal birthday cakes on their premises, McDonalds spokesman Faz Hussen has clarified on the issue to the local mainstream news.

    Mr Hussen said that although McDonalds does not allow outside food on their premises, birthday cakes are an exception. However, birthday cakes brought into the premises have to been halal certified and this practice has been in place since McDonalds received their halal certification in 1992.

    He added that as a halal certified food establishment, McDonalds Singapore has to strictly follow the regulations set out under the halal certification to ensure their food complies with halal requirements so that it is permissible for muslims in Singapore to patronize.

    During the food preparation process, McDonalds Singapore takes precaution to ensure their food products are not mixed with non-halal certified products.

  • Stop Telling Muslim Women to Have Children

    Stop Telling Muslim Women to Have Children

    I just like to advise the public especially fellow Muslims that people should stop telling us women to have kids. I for one have decided on this a long time ago.

    The endless cycle of family members, relatives, long-distance aunties and uncles, masjid aunties and even strangers asking mede me feel as though i am obligated to produce an offspring for them to look at and adore, as if they invested money in me and waiting for their returns. I tell you i am going to explode anytime soon and it just make me so frustrated. Honestly i am tired of saying InsyaAllah just to please them, when i actually dont even want to settle down and have kids.

    I dont hate men or any Malay man. I dont dislike children too. But i hate the fact that people’s mindset of women it for that very purpose.

    So now i fight my case and hope these reasons will give confidence to other women facing the same dilemma and give them the confidence they need.

    1. You don’t need any reason to not have children.
    2. No one has the right to dictate whether or not you reproduce. Simply put, no obligation to give your parents grandchildren.

    Lastly, please stop asking such question like “Don’t you feel incomplete? Like something is missing?” or “Adik tak sunyi ke?” or “I will pray for you to get married and have children.” or “Adik tidak memenuhi pegangan Islam adik” because this is what i want, that’s why.

  • Muslims Nowadays Easily Swayed By Liberal Thinking Due To Various Reasons

    Muslims Nowadays Easily Swayed By Liberal Thinking Due To Various Reasons

    Ramai orang yang saya kenal di masa mudanya merupakan seorang salafi dan Islamis, tetapi di masa tua ia menjadi modenis dan liberal. Ada dua kemungkinan mengapa hal ini berlaku:

    Pertama, ia menjadi salafi/Islamis semata-mata kerana pengaruh persekitaran dan sebenarnya tidak yakin dengan apa yang diwacanakan. Kedua, ia faham dan yakin dengan wacana tersebut tetapi tuntutan zaman merubah fikirannya untuk lebih pragmatik dan mementingkan survival diri. Dalam kedua-dua situasi ini ia gagal memiliki kerangka berfikir yang teguh dan mantap yang diinginkan oleh Islam.

    Hal ini menunjukkan begitu besar pengaruh dan mudahnya merebak pemikiran liberal kepada masyarakat Muslim. Di sinilah pentingnya kita mempersiapkan diri dengan pandangan alam (worldview) Islam supaya kita dapat memelihara diri kita daripada terpengaruh dengan pandangan alam yang boleh merosakkan Aqidah dan jati diri kita.
