    Funeral Prayer For Allahyarham Nadzrie After Friday Prayers At Al-Khair Mosque

    Salam semua. Insyallah jenazah pegawai polis, Allahyarham Nadzrie akan di solatkan selepas solat jumaat di Masjid Al-Khair. Bagi yang kelapangan, harap dpt hadir untuk solat jenazah beliau disana.

    Hadis Abu Hurairah r.a katanya: Rasulullah s.a.w telah  bersabda: Sesiapa yang menghadiri jenazah sehinnga jenazah itu disembahyangkan, maka dia seolah-olah mendapatkan satu qirat (qirat adalah kinayah bagi ganjaran pahala yang sangat banyak) dan sesiapa yang menghadirinya sehingga jenazah itu dikuburkan, maka dia mendapat dua qirat. Sahabat bertanya: Apakah dua qirat itu? Baginda s.a.w bersabda: Seumpama dua gunung.

    Harap dapat spread message ini ye. Kalau kiter tak dpt pergi, orang lain yang pergi, kiter pun turut dapat pahalanya. Ameen. Alfateha.

     

    Translated to English:

    Greetings everyone. Insyallah , there will be a prayer for our late police officer Nadzrie after Friday prayers at the Al-Khair Mosque. For those who have the time, your presence at the prayers is truly appreciated.

    Guidance from The Prophet (saws)

    Hadrat Abu Hurairah (r.a.) reported: The Messenger of Allah (saws) said, “Whoever follows the funeral procession and offers the funeral prayer for it, will get a reward equal to one Qirat, and whoever attends it till burial, will get a reward equal to two Qirat.” It was asked, “What are two Qirat?” He (PBUH) replied, “Equal to two huge mountains.”

    Please help to spread this message. If we are unable to attend, but others go instead, we will also be rewarded. Ameen. Alfateha.

    Seeing His Way Blocked,Frustrated Man Persistently Honked Outside Surau During Friday Prayers, Attacked By Mob

  • Pioneer Leader Othman Wok Gets Special Mention During Friday Prayers At Mosques

    Pioneer Leader Othman Wok Gets Special Mention During Friday Prayers At Mosques

    The late pioneer Cabinet minister Othman Wok was remembered by Muslims at prayers on Friday (April 21) in mosques across the island.

    Mr Othman, who died on Monday (April 17) at the age of 92, received special mention in the second sermon for his contributions to racial harmony in Singapore.

    “Racial harmony does not come easy. It requires courage, countless sacrifices, and careful planning from various individuals and community leaders. Among those who have significantly contributed to the growth and development of this nation is the late Mr Othman Wok,” the sermon said.

    “His efforts in spearheading the development of multiracial policies have established Singapore as a successful pluralistic society.”

    Mr Othman was the first Malay Cabinet minister in independent Singapore and was committed to multiracialism, despite intense pressure from Malay supremacists in the 1960s.

    In the sermon, which was prepared by the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) to be delivered by imams at all 71 mosques in Singapore, worshippers were reminded of their role in preserving the peace that Mr Othman worked to build.

    “Maintaining peace and harmony is especially crucial for a country with a multiracial society like Singapore. As such, it is imperative that we continue playing our roles in ensuring the preservation of peace and harmony that we have so enjoyed thus far,” the sermon said.

    The racial riots of the 1960s are a reminder of the importance of socio-religious harmony, and maintaining this is a shared national responsibility, not just that of the country’s leaders, the sermon also said.

    “We need to ensure that future generations have the opportunity to enjoy the peace and harmony that we have so inherited… May the efforts of the late Mr Othman Wok spark interest in our hearts and the future generations to contribute to the betterment of our state and religion,” it added.

    Mr Othman received a state-assisted funeral, and was buried at Choa Chu Kang Muslim Cemetery on Tuesday. A memorial service was held in his honour on Wednesday at Victoria Concert Hall.

  • Imam At Masjid Jami’ Chulia Allegedly Cursed At Christians And Jews During Friday Prayers

    Imam At Masjid Jami’ Chulia Allegedly Cursed At Christians And Jews During Friday Prayers

    This is a video, from the 6th January 2017, of the imam at Jami’ Chulia Mosque cursing Christians and Jews. This was during the Friday khuthbah. He did it again today.

    In summary, he said, “God Grant us victory over the disbelievers, God Grant us victory over the polytheists, God Grant us victory over the hypocrites and the people of envy, God Grant us victory over the Jews and the Christians, God Grant us victory over the Jews and the Christians …” The last part was repeated twice as an emphasis.

    This is 2017, and we still have unlettered people leading prayers in the mosque and supplicating as if we are all living in the Crusades and there is a huge religious war. How is this acceptable in the context of Singapore? It is only because he said it in Arabic that most people in the congregation likely did not realise.

    Islam is not at war with people of other faiths, particularly the Ahl al-Kitab, People of Scripture. This is an unbecoming relic of a different age. We should not encourage this sort of thiking or condone this sort of supplication

    ====

    Mr Terence Hekiaon Nunis, the contributor of the video confirmed in an online interview that this was not the only time he heard such supplications made in the mosque and reaffirmed that everything he wrote was factual.

    “It should be noted, also, that this was not a solitary occurrence. It was first noted on the 17th January and then again, on the day I posted this.

    Some people went there for Friday prayers. At the end of the sermon, this is what was recited as a supplication. The first few lines are innocuous and paraphrased from the Qur’anic supplication. The last part about overcoming the Jews and Christians is his own, or likely, taken from some similar supplication elsewhere, and is not from Scripture.

    The word used is “fanswurna” which I have translated as “grant victory over”, but more accurately means, “to overcome”. Translating from Arabic to English is not always easy because there are words which have no direct translation without losing the flavour of the meaning.

    In this case, the flavour is far from benign and the implicit meaning is more than just being better than them, the Christians and Jews, but to dominate them.”

  • Ingin Bantu Pelarian Syria Harungi Musim Sejuk? Semua 70 Masjid S’pura Kumpul Dana Khas Mulai Jumaat Ini

    Ingin Bantu Pelarian Syria Harungi Musim Sejuk? Semua 70 Masjid S’pura Kumpul Dana Khas Mulai Jumaat Ini

    Kita di Singapura, Malaysia dan Indonesia sedang mengalami cuaca dingin yang nyaman. Namun para pelarian Syria kini dibelenggu oleh cuaca amat sejuk, yang menggigit rantau Timur Tengah.

    Bermakna, para pelarian Syria kini memerlukan lebih banyak bantuan dan kelengkapan bagi melindungi diri mereka, selain keperluan lain seperti makanan.

    Lantaran itu, mulai Jumaat ini (3 Feb), semua 70 masjid di Singapura, dengan kerjasama Yayasan Rahmatan Lil Alamin (RLAF), akan mengadakan kutipan derma khas sempena musim sejuk, bagi membantu para pelarian Syria.

    KERJASAMA RLAF, UNHCR & MAHASISWA S’PURA DI JORDAN

    Konflik dalam negeri dan peperangan di Syria yang sudah berlarutan hampir enam tahun amat menjejas para penduduknya.

    Lebih empat juta rakyat Syria sudahpun melarikan diri dari negara itu dan mendapatkan perlindungan di negara-negara asing seperti Eropah, Turki, Jordan, Lubnan, Iraq dan Mesir.

    Di Jordan sahaja, terdapat 650,000 pelarian dan jumlah yang tinggi itu menjejas ke atas sumber-sumber di negara yang juga sedang berusaha memenuhi keperluan rakyatnya sendiri.

    Oleh itu, RLAF akan bekerjasama dengan UNHCR dan badan mahasiswa Singapura di Jordan untuk menghulurkan bantuan dalam program bantuan musim sejuk serta program-program pendidikan bagi kanak-kanak Syria.

    KEMPEN KUTIP DANA BERLANGSUNG SELAMA SEMINGGU

    Kotak-kotak derma RLAF akan diletakkan di semua 70 masjid dari Jumaat ini sehingga Khamis 9 Februari 2017 dan akan tertera tulisan “Special Winter Collection in Aid of Syrian Refugees”.

    Orang ramai boleh menghulurkan derma mereka secara tunai ataupun menerusi cek. Semua derma menerusi cek perlu diberikan kepada “RLAF” dan ditulis “Special Winter Collection in Aid of Syrian Refugees” pada bahagian belakangnya.

    Sumbangan wang tunai dan cek boleh dihantar ke Bangunan MUIS di Hab Islam Singapura, No 273, Braddell Road, Singapore 579702.

    Selain itu, orang awam juga boleh menyumbang secara online menerusi https://zakat.sg/ePayment/donations.aspx.

    RLAF PERNAH BANTU 4,000 KELUARGA SYRIA

    Pada tahun 2014, RLAF dan masjid-masjid di Singapura berjaya mengumpulkan lebih $400,000 menerusi dua usaha mengumpul dana bagi para pelarian Syria.

    Dana itu digunakan untuk mengagihkan makanan yang sudah dimasak, keperluan bagi lebih 4,000 keluarga Syria, peralatan sekolah bagi kanak-kanak pelarian Syria di tiga buah sekolah di Turki serta kit ubat-ubatan bagi klinik-klinik untuk merawat mereka yang cedera dan kurang upaya.

    Yang paling penting, RLAF dengan kerjasama Projek ASRIT (Bantuan untuk Pelarian Syria di Turki) berjaya menubuhkan Pusat Pendidikan Temasek di Kilis, selatan Turki yang mengambil 500 pelajar Syria dari peringkat tadika sehingga pos-menengah setiap tahun. Sehingga kini, pusat ini masih lagi beroperasi.
