    Faizal Tahir Perjelas Kontroversi Kulit Album; Dituduh “Iluminati, Murtad”

    Penyanyi Faizal Tahir memperjelaskan bahawa kulit album terbarunya berjudul Anatomi ada kaitan dengan beberapa perkara dalam kehidupannya.

    “Sejak kulit album ini keluar banyak tanggapan positif dan negatif saya terima, ada yang kata ia iluminati, freemason dan ada juga yang nampak ia seperti salib dan menuduh saya murtad.

    “Secara dasarnya kulit album Anatomi ini simbolik kepada lagu-lagu dalam album ini dan beberapa benda yang berkaitan dengan kehidupan saya,” kata beliau kepada mStar Online.

    Beliau juga menambah beliau mempunyai kepercayaan yang kuat terhadap Allah dan percaya Allah sentiasa memberi bimbingan kepadanya, tambah laporan mStar Online.

    Penyanyi lagu Assalamualaikum itu menjelaskan kontroversi kulit album baru yang menjadi viral di laman sosial sejak ia dikeluarkan minggu lalu.

    Beliau menerangkan bahawa simbol kuda merupakan lambang tahun kelahirannya, manakala sayap pula berkaitan dengan pasukan bola sepak kegemarannya iaitu Liverpool.

    mStar Online melaporkan bahawa menurut Faizal, gambar wanita berpurdah pula merupakan simbol rasa hormatnya kepada kaum wanita yang menutup aurat dan gambar kanak-kanak berkepala televisyen pula menonjolkan kanak-kanak zaman sekarang yang terlalu terdedah kepada internet dan televisyen.

    “Foto saya empat tangan dan kaki serta tidak berbaju pula adalah lambang lukisan Leonardo da Vincci. Ada juga yang mempersoalkan tentang aurat kerana saya tidak berbaju dalam kulit album ini.

    “Bagi saya ramai lagi penyanyi wanita yang kulit album tidak bertudung dan mendedahkan aurat,” ujarnya kepada mStar Online.

  • Ustaz Abd Al-Halim: The Ummah Should Be More Concerned About ARS

    Ustaz Abd Al-Halim: The Ummah Should Be More Concerned About ARS

    AsSalaam’alaikum!

    I attended the ARS seminar days ago – the first one in English – and cannot shake off the feeling that there is more that needs to be discussed. Though I brought up quite a few issues that need addressing and were responded to, many agree that some of the responses were not assuring. I think that the ummah should be more concerned about the ARS then they are now. I, like others, worry that it is becoming a mechanism for control.

    May Allah swt preserve the well-being of the true knowledgeable ulama and protect the ummah from being misled by the ulama suu’ as well as the asatizahs who actually have little knowledge and yet dare to teach and guide the ummah.

  • Nuradillah Zakbah – Meet The Singaporean Accidental Mediator Who Brought Peace Between An African American And PRC Family In France

    Nuradillah Zakbah – Meet The Singaporean Accidental Mediator Who Brought Peace Between An African American And PRC Family In France

    A Singaporean woman used her language skills to mediate a misunderstanding between an African American man and a group of Chinese tourists in France’s Charles de Gaulle airport on Saturday (Nov 5).

    Ms Nuradillah Zakbah, 31, was in Paris for a seven-hour stopover, enroute to Portugal where she was attending a conference. She works as a creative technologist at an advertising agency.

    She was in a queue at immigration in front of an African American tourist and a group of Chinese tourists when she heard a commotion behind her.

    “As I turned around, this rather tall African American man made eye contact with me and said ‘Can you believe this? This group of people just called me a n**ger!’” she told The Straits Times.

    The Chinese group, comprising of two men and three women, were puzzled as to why they were being scolded, and the two parties started quarrelling, she said.

    “And a man I assumed to be the grandfather of the group was pointing his fingers and shouting back at the American man,” she added.

    “That was when I realised that the Chinese tourists had said the word ‘that’ (na ge) in Mandarin a few times in their conversation, which sounds like the word ‘n**ger’. Therefore the American tourist might have misunderstood them.”

    Ms Nuradillah, who is Malay, told The Straits Times she intervened on the “spur of the moment”.

    “I had to explain to him (the American man) that he misunderstood – and had to explain to him that I understood a little bit of Mandarin to know that they were saying or pointing to ‘that thing’ (na ge) instead of calling him the derogatory term,” she told The Straits Times.

    She also explained the misunderstanding to the Chinese group “in the best broken Mandarin” she could. She asked them to forgive him and move on from the situation.

    After her intervention, both sides were slightly embarrassed and shook hands and apologised.

    She also explained to an airport security guard in her “broken French” that the incident was just a misunderstanding.

    Where did Ms Nuradillah pick up her language skills?

    “I picked up Chinese from friends growing up, reading subtitles on Channel 8 dramas and also went to a basic Mandarin course at 18 – to prepare myself for the workforce back then,” she said.

    Ms Nuradillah recounted the incident on her Facebook on Saturday and the post has since received numerous comments that praise her act

    Through this episode, Ms Nuradillah also realised the importance of living in a multicultural society.

    “I thought that it was just really cool to be able to help others out because I’m a Singaporean. That was the time that I was extremely thankful to have lived and grown up in a place that exposed me to a diversity of cultures and languages,” she said.

    Nasi Lemak Wak Kentut Antara 40 Nasi Lemak Terbaik Malaysia

    KUALA LUMPUR: Nasi Lemak, gabungan citarasa pelbagai kaum, menjadi hidangan yang digemari semua lapisan masyarakat.

    Malah, makanan itu turut mendapat tempat di hati pelancong asing.

    Namun, Nasi Lemak dari kawasan yang berbeza mempunyai keunikannya tersendiri sama ada dari segi rasa dan cara penyediaannya.

    INISIATIF ‘I EAT NASI LEMAK’

    Bagi memperkenalkan keunikan itu, FriedChilies mengambil inisiatif memperkenalkan program ‘I Eat Nasi Lemak’ yang mengumpulkan 40 penjual atau pembekal nasi lemak terbaik dari seluruh Malaysia.

    Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif FriedChilies, Mohd Adly Rizal berkata lebih 100 perniagaan nasi lemak dari seluruh negara dinilai sebelum dipilih bagi menyertai acara itu tahun ini.

    “Kami mengambil masa tiga bulan mencari dan mencuba nasi lemak untuk dapatkan 40 yang terbaik,” katanya kepada Bernama.

    KENTUT BUKAN SEBARANG KENTUT

    Encik Mohd Adly berkata antara ‘hero’ nasi lemak yang dibawa khas daripada luar Kuala Lumpur adalah Nasi Lemak Wak Kentut (Kulai), Nasi Lemak Ujong Pasir dari Melaka, Nasi Lemak Habib (Batu Pahat), dan Che Pah Corner.

    PEMBELI TETAP MAHUKAN ‘KENTUT’

    Menurut pengusahanya Suhirah Sabarin, 39 tahun, perniagaan dan nama unik itu diwarisi daripada bapanya yang diberi gelaran Wak Kentut oleh penduduk sekitar Kulai, Johor.

    “Kami pernah mahu menukar nama, namun pelanggan tetap kami tidak setuju kerana nama itu sudah sebati dalam ingatan mereka.

    “Keistimewaannya adalah nasi lemak itu sendiri diperbuat daripada santan asli yang menjadikannya lebih lemak dan wangi, selain ayam goreng rangup,” katanya.

    NASI LEMAK BANTU GOLONGAN MISKIN

    Bagi pengasas ‘The Nasi Lemak Project’, Mastura M.Rashid, 26 tahun, menjual nasi lemak bukan hanya semata-mata mahu mengaut keuntungan, tetapi beliau turut membantu golongan miskin di bandar memulakan perniagaan mereka.

    “Di bawah projek ini, kami menggalakkan pendapatan isi rumah kurang daripada
    RM900 (S$290) sebulan mempelajari cara memasak dan berniaga nasi lemak bagi menampung kehidupan daif mereka.

    “Kami turut menjalankan perniagaan nasi lemak secara dalam talian, keuntungan itu digunakan dalam kerja-kerja amal membantu gelandangan dengan memberi tuisyen kepada kanak-kanak setinggan dan Projek Perumahan Rakyat,”
    katanya.

  • The Myanmar Times Journalist Fired After Reporting On Military Rape In Rakhine State

    The Myanmar Times Journalist Fired After Reporting On Military Rape In Rakhine State

    A journalist was fired from The Myanmar Times after she reported on military rape in Rakhine State. More staff might be fired; others have resigned/are considering resignation. See: http://frontiermyanmar.net/…/reporters-sacking-followed-moi…

    To publicly indicate their anger and dismay, The Myanmar Times editorial staff took out an ad in their own paper.

    When you face censorship, quiet negotiations don’t address the systemic issue. Closed-door dialogue doesn’t challenge power; you’re playing by the rules of the powerful. You might get a story in the paper this time, or prevented a sacking another time, but it doesn’t mean you’ve won freedom. Here’s to journalists who aren’t afraid to take a stand together, and to let the public know about it.
