  • No Muslim Should Join PinkDotSG

     

    SyedDanialpicbadge1

    I have a dream.

    It is late-June. The day of the Pinkdot activity at Hong Lim.

    Muslims are also gathering. By the thousands. But not at Hong Lim. But at numerous stadia around Singapore – Bedok, Hougang, Tampines, Yishun etc stadia. We gather to celebrate the Sanctity and Sacredness of the Family in Singapore.

    It is a fun and festive atmosphere. Families are having picnics. Amidst that, Asatizahs give talks.

    As the sun sets, we all gather for salatul Maghrib. Those who can, stay on till Isha. Its the first night of Ramadhan and we all pray tarawikh.

    Prior to the day itself, our Mufti makes a strong stance against the LGBT movement. Emphasis is made that no Muslim should join the Pinkdot activity. As it is tacit approval to acts so heinous in the sight of Allah azzawajal.

    In conjunction with PERGAS, a series of ‘roadshow’ talks are held in the satellite mosques, talking about the dangers of the LGBT movement and Liberal Islam. At the same time, there is full publicity for the show of support in the stadia on the same day of the Pinkdot gathering. The legion of Social Media enthusiasts encourage the youths to attend the gathering in support of the Sanctity and Sacredness of the Family.

    This is my dream.

    It is not impossible. Subhanallah. MUIS has great potential to lead our community. They organised the salat istisqa. I was at Razak mosque. A VAST MAJORITY of Singaporeans stayed back after Jumuah salat to perform the Istisqa in Jemaah and stayed back for the khutbah.

    Lo and Behold, the next day Allah azzawajal sent the rain.

    Imagine what Allah azzawajal will be willing to do if we close ranks and show our resolve to push back against acts heinous in Allah’s eyes. If we sit back and continue in our state of docility, the pinkdot mvt will keep on pushing their agenda. And pretty soon, there will be Gay Pride parades down Jalan Sultan and Orchard Road, with images of gays in drag being beamed across the world, and the Sultan Mosque is the backdrop. A stark reminder of our docility, when we should be struggling for the Deen of Allah.

    I have a dream. It can be a reality. If MUIS and PERGAS decide to wake up from their slumber. And truly lead the community.

    Wallahua’lam. Have a wonderful night in the remembrance of Allah. Let my dream be our collective dream. And let us make sincere doa that Allah azzawajal sends his Nusrah. And protect our Aqeedah and that of our progeny for many generations to come.

  • Muhammadiyah’s Response Towards the LGBT Developments in Singapore

    308008_160330077379979_6131534_n

    KENYATAAN MEDIA
    26 Mac 2014


    Perkembangan gejala LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender) di Singapura telah memberi tekanan kepada masyarakat. Persatuan Muhammadiyah serta ahlinya sangat prihatin terhadap permasalahan ini.

    Sebagai badan yang didasari ajaran Al-Quran dan As-Sunnah serta memperjuangkan kemurnian agama Islam, Persatuan Muhammadiyah dan ahlinya secara total menolak pengamalan homoseksual ataupun LGBT yang jelas bercanggah dengan syariat Islam serta hukum alam.

    Kelakuan homoseksual atau LGBT telah dikecam oleh Allah s.w.t melalui firman nya dalam Al-Quran “Mengapa kamu mendatangi jenis lelaki di antara manusia, dan kamu tinggalkan istri-istri yang dijadikan oleh Tuhanmu untukmu, bahkan kamu adalah orang-orang yang melampaui batas”. (Surah Assyuara : 165 – 166)

    Rasulullah s.a.w. juga telah membuat penegasan tentang perkara ini dengan sabdanya “Sesuatu yang paling saya takuti terjadi atas kamu adalah perbuatan kaum Luth dan dilaknat orang yang memperbuat seperti perbuatan mereka itu, Nabi mengulangnya sampai tiga kali: “Allah melaknat orang yang berbuat seperti perbuatan kaum Luth; Allah melaknat orang yang berbuat seperti perbuatan kaum Luth; Allah melaknat orang yang berbuat seperti perbuatan kaum Luth,” (HR. Ibnu Majah, Tirmidzi dan Al Hakim).

    Manusia diciptakan secara berpasangan untuk saling lengkap melengkapi dan memenuhi fitrah berzuriat dan berkeluarga. Maka gejala LGBT mengancam dan bakal merosakkan fitrah berkeluarga serta memporak-perandakan keutuhan moral insan yang mulia.

    Demi untuk menjaga keharmonian dan kemakmuran negara Singapura, gejala LGBT tidak sepatutnya dibiarkan menular dan menyusup masuk ke dalam masyarakat kita. Tindakan proaktif perlu diusahakan untuk menangani dan membantu mereka yang terjebak dalam permasalahan ini, baik mereka yang mengamalkan gaya hidup LGBT atau mereka yang menyokongnya.

    Kami menyeru dan menasihatkan umat Islam Singapura agar tidak menganjurkan atau menyokong gerakkan LGBT. Ini termasuk menghadiri pesta dan perkumpulan yang meraikan gaya hidup LGBT.

    Semoga Allah s.w.t melindungi masyarakat Singapura dari segala macam bencana serta menjadikan kita masyarakat yang bermoral, bertamadun dan berbudaya tinggi

  • Up Close with Former Gay Activist

    Erin atau nama sebenar Mohd Khairiri Ramli akui kasih sayang antara punca berlaku kecelaruan identiti golongan berkenaan.
    Erin atau nama sebenar Mohd Khairiri Ramli akui kasih sayang antara punca berlaku kecelaruan identiti golongan berkenaan.

    Last night, I was fortunate to have attended a talk by Cikgu Mohd Khairiri Hj Ramli, a Malaysian teacher who is now renowned for his efforts in helping former gays to reform and return back to the fold of Islam. A former gay himself, Khairiri shared how he developed inclinations towards the same sex at a relatively young age. He struggled with the conflict of gender identity for more than two decades of life; cross-dressing, wearing thick make-up, spending so much money on plastic surgery and, to cap it all, engaging in prostitution along the dark alleys of his own hometown.

    It was only after experiencing a great calamity in his life that Khairiri decided that it was time to make a change. He was abused and beaten up by his gay partner until his nose broke. The mental effects of that violent episode persist till today and it did much to scar him permanently. He began to think about the many years of sinful life that he had led.  And yet, reforming himself to be a good Muslim was not easy.

  • Homosexuality and Liberal Islam are Dangerous to Singapore

    NUS Professor Syed Khairudin Aljunied

    I was recently made aware of the uproar over my dear friend Prof Dr Syed Khairudin Aljunied and his post on the wall of his personal Facebook account.I do not see why is there a need to make a big fuss over his post in the first place. There were some who took offence as they see it as him replying in his official capacity just because the word “prof” appeared. I find it daft really. It was the questioner who addressed him as “prof”. Prof K was replying in his personal capacity and nowhere did he say he is replying in his official capacity. (note that I too personally address him as Prof K)

    Next, there are those who took offense at the words “diseases”, “cancerous” and “cleanse”. The ones starting the petition are being mischievous when they took those words out of context. It is literally putting words into his mouth when they angle it the way they are doing it now. The hypocrisy……

    And if he edited the post, isn’t it good in some sense as perhaps he did see value in some of the complaints brought forth and corrected it accordingly. Or perhaps he realised it himself. I am just speculating here.

    Most seem to fail to note who the post was addressing it to. Prof K was addressing it to the Muslim faithful. A Muslim not adhering to the teachings of Islam can’t be called the faithful can he? Nor can a Non-Muslim be part of the Muslim faithful. He is addressing to the in-house crowd. (though what Prof K is suggesting can be used by the other religions in their own religious context).

    He is replying to a Muslim. How do you expect him to reply then? There is no way we can compromise on the issue. Islam abhors homosexual acts and we can’t condone nor compromise on it. As a scholar, he is obligated to stand up to deviant ideologies and practices. Read below:

    “Scholars and religious teachers (asatizahs) must speak up and write against these ideologies and practices. They are obligated to explain to the public the true meaning of what Islam is and sexuality as defined by the Quran and Sunnah. When the scholars and asatizahs are silent about these issues, corruption will spread like wild fire.”

    Same goes to Liberal Islam as they bring about a dangerous ideology that runs contrary to the teachings of Islam. They discard 1400++ years of scholarly research, debate and rulings and bring in instead deviant interpretation of the religion claiming that theirs is most up to date. And most of them who are advocating it are not even learned enough in the knowledge of Islam in order to make any new rulings. The ideas and ideals brought forth by the proponents of these ideologies and practices brings about many social ills and it is detrimental to the well being of any society. Any part of the body that is not normally there and brings diseases to it is cancerous. Then there is a need to cleanse it. Cleanse not in the sense of killing them but to do it spiritually in the context put forth by Prof K.

    If we do not make a stand, society will degenerate faster that it is now. What next? If the pedophiles decided to form a lobby and lobby for the age of consent to be lowered further, what do we do? Do we let them be coz it is their rights? Freedom to love mah…Some European countries approve of Bestiality and some in fact have animal brothels. If ever we have a bestiality lobby here, do we allow them through also?

    Where do we draw the line on the morality of society?

    Many too failed to notice the words that come before and after those words mentioned above. They also fail to see the overall meaning he is conveying. Put it in context people! Nowhere is he spouting hatred for a certain group of minorities. It is conveniently angled in such a way by the authors of the petition. He is in fact advocating early detection and seeking early treatment. Read below:

    “Parents and school teachers must be made aware of these challenges. They must detect early signs of waywardness from their children and students. Give advice, send them to proper religious classes and seek help from counsellors, if necessary. Win over the hearts of the misled youths and explain to them what’s right with knowledge and wisdom.”

    We condemn homosexual acts but we do not condemn those who have homosexual tendencies or those who are transsexuals. We welcome them with open arms,always ready to listen to them and offer them advice if need be. We will accept them as who they are but we will never fail to remind them to return back to the true path. Coz we love ’em.

    Peace.
