    Malaysia’s Prime Minister Najib Razak To Issue Statement On US Recognition Of Jerusalem

    MALAYSIA will make an official statement on the United States’ decision to recognise Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, a move that is certain to have repercussions in the Middle East.

    Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the Prime Minister would be making an announcement on the matter.

    He told reporters this after a 30-minute meeting with Hamas Political Bureau member Dr Maher Salah on the sidelines of the Umno general assembly here yesterday.

    Dr Maher said such a move would cause more concern among the Arabs and asked the Organi­sation of Islamic Cooperation to intervene.

    “This move is in contravention with international laws and the rights of the Palestinians. Jerusalem is the capital of Palestine and belongs to Islam.

    “I laud the Deputy Prime Min­ister’s stand on this issue,” he added.

    It was reported that US President Donald Trump would be declaring a formal recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and move its embassy from Tel Aviv.

    Later yesterday, Dr Ahmad Zahid launched the Home Ministry’s booth at the Putra World Trade Centre for the assembly.

    The booth will offer services from all agencies under the ministry, including the police, Prisons Dep­artment, Immigration Depart­ment and National Registration Department.

    He also unveiled a 238-page book on the ministry’s achievements and performance since he became Home Minister.

    Dr Ahmad Zahid, who is also Umno vice-president, took time off to sit in debates at the Umno Youth, Wanita Umno and Puteri wings.

    Singer Sheila Majid Got into Trouble Because Of Her Tweet…

    Umno information chief Tan Sri Annuar Musa says that iconic singer Sheila Majid, who tweeted about the rising cost of living, was mistaken.

    The Barisan Nasional Backbenchers Club portal reported Annuar as saying that much of what Sheila said was not true.

    “A lot of it is wrong, because this is not her field,” said Annuar.

    However, he said that he respected the views and responses of the rakyat and would have a positive attitude about it.

    “We must respect the voices out there, we must give them our attention, and the Government must be positive about it,” he said.

    On Tuesday, Sheila tweeted her disappointment about the rising cost of living which many Malaysians are facing.

    “Food is expensive, the ringgit is weak, the cost of living is high and jobs are scarce,” read part of her tweet.

    Sheila also said that many Malaysians want the Government to focus on getting the country back on track.

    Earlier Wednesday, Puteri Umno executive committee member Khaidhirah Abu Zahar took a jab at actress Fathia Latiff at the Umno annual general assembly here.

    “If she really wants to talk about the struggles of the people, then go on the ground like Puteri Umno. If she just wants to simply type words using her smartphone, then there’s no need,” said Khaidhirah.

    “There’s no need to meddle in government affairs,” Khaidhirah said in her speech at the assembly.

    In a recent Instagram post, Fathia had posted a tribute to former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, saying that his contributions to the country seemed to have been forgotten.

  • Muslimahs At Workplaces – Gain Your Bosses’ Trust First

    Muslimahs At Workplaces – Gain Your Bosses’ Trust First

    Some workplace, tak benarkan kita pakai pakaian yang “terlalu” muslimah (baggy clothes/tudung labuh).

    After 11 years of working and jumping around few MNCs and gov offices, first time, boss aku talk to me about “professional attire”.

    Aku is vendor. Engineer dari lain company giving service to another company. So he told me, dia nak aku dress professionally and deliver expertise aku accordingly. Aku faham apa dia trying to say bila dia tengok aku atas bawah.

    He shared with me, dia taknak ada incident where he will be asked not to take “muslimah” again sebab diorang pernah encounter banyak problem with the previous muslimah.

    Waktu solat takes forever.
    Bila bercakap, tak tapis. Nak jaga with non mahram sampai appear rude.
    Dressing terlalu labuh/extreme.
    Datang kerja lambat.
    Buat kerja selalu ada mistakes.
    Bila ada mistakes, tak own up. Argue.

    Aku pernah ada staff muslimah.
    Bila kerja, mulut dia kumat kamit. Prolly berzikir.
    I dont have any problem with that.
    I dont have problem with dressing as well.
    But kita selalu kena be mindful of other religion and race. Nak baca apape.. jangan lah sampai macam tengah berjampi. Maybe ada orang tak selesa.

    And masa tu, aku was fronting auditors for my team. And tiap kali auditor spot a mistake, mesti it comes from this lady. Everyday datang lambat. Masuk waktu solat, hilang almost 45 mins. Pastu argue je.. dengan boss. Dia try to gunakan aku as a shield but aku, time kerja, kerja. Time friends, friends.

    So aku share skit, aku stick to black bila masuk office. So “nampak” professional. Tudung je tukar2 color. Try to wear baju office gi office. Baju kurung ke, jubah ke, maybe boleh pakai on Friday. On weekdays, you can wear palazzo/skirt and tops labuh.

    But one thing aku paling jaga is timing pergi balik office and work performance. Jangan lambat masuk office. Orang benci those yang tak datang on time tapi nak balik on time.
    Those yang tak jaga break time. Tak pernah ada dekat desk. Kalau nak gi solat pon, tu bukan company bapak kita. So plan your time wisely. Jangan sampai mulut orang kata “amik muslimah, nak kena put on radar. Because they are so irresponsible”.

    Bila boss aku amik aku, he told me honestly that dia akan put aku on radar, and aku baru dapat lepas his hook sebab aku selalu available bila clients ke customer carik.

    Jangan busukkan nama muslimah. Be a professional productive muslimah.

    Then once boss da percaya, nak pakai sari gi kerja.. pakailah..

  • (Russia) ‘Halal’ Bitcoin May Be Coming To A Muslim Community Near You

    (Russia) ‘Halal’ Bitcoin May Be Coming To A Muslim Community Near You

    Cryptocurrency as a tool of Islamic banking is being discussed by the Muslim community and could be created within the next two or three years, according to the adviser on Islamic economics and finance of the Russia’s Muftis Council Madina Kalimullina.

    She told TASS that based on the cryptocurrency characteristics, the coin can be halal [permissible – Ed.]. “Sharia standards do not cover this issue yet, but in the perspective of two or three years they can be developed,” Kalimullina said after a conference in Kazan.

    “This topic is now very popular in the Russian Islamic community, particularly in the Caucasus, it is constantly discussed at the meetings of Islamic economists,” she added.

    There’s already a so-called ‘meet-coin’ in Kazan for settlements in the livestock business.

    Kalimullina said bitcoin exchanges have been opened in some Muslim countries. Middle East’s first wallet BitOasis which opened for UAE customers, and is now available in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman. Indonesia’s Bitcoin and Malaysia’s Coinbox also offer services linked to cryptocurrencies.

    The absence of a single regulator for cryptocurrencies is one of the major issues which confuses followers of Islam, according to Kalimullina. “Among the main arguments against bitcoin is a high degree of risk (maisir) and uncertainty (garar), a lack of provision of real assets and state guarantees,” she said.

    The expert added that it is not forbidden to conduct bitcoin operations for Muslims if they access all the “risks and the high probability of garar and maisir.” The UAE has recently started issuing a new cryptocurrency, secured with gold, she said.

    Islamic banking requires banking activities following the religious teachings of Islam. Maisir and garar are forbidden by Islamic law. Sharia law requires a currency to be tangible or to have evidence of existence. Islam forbids the use of a money that is tied to debt, and prohibits the charging and profiting from interest paid out on loans. For a currency to be halal, it must be deflationary in nature meaning that it is resistant to inflation and has a steady market price.
