Rockers adalah reformis…dan reformis berjuang bukan untuk pangkat dan jawatan. Apa yang dimahukan hanyalah kebebasan untuk berkarya..kebebasan untuk berexpressi. Demonstrasi tahun 98 adalah perjuangan rockers untuk kebebasan. Tetapi matlamat itu tidak kesampaian secara keseluruhan. Rockers yang menyokong Barisan Alternatif, dengan harapan BA akan memberikan ruang kebebasan kepada mereka tetapi apabila BA berkuasa, ruang untuk mereka disempitkan.Semakin banyak benda-benda remeh yang diharamkan. Anak muda hanya dihidangkan dengan nasyid, nasyid, nasyid. Manakala rockers yang membantu menaikkan BA dipandang hina. Akhirnya BA lingkup apabila rockers beralih angin.
Tahun 2008, rockers memberikan peluang kedua kepada BA, dan dengan kelemahan UBN, BA menang cemerlang. Tetapi selepas menang…perangai lama kembali berulang. Konsert rock dihalang. Rockers dianggap tidak bermoral…tidak beriman. Seniman-seniman dipandang rendah dan tiada siapa yang memperdulikan mereka.
Tetapi rockers a.k.a reformis ini bukanlah golongan yang mahu menuntut jawatan atau pangkat. Mereka tidak menuntut jawatan Menteri Besar, tidak menuntut jawatan EXCO atau pun YDP MPSP. Apa yang mereka mahukan hanyalah ruang kebebasan. Apakah itu cukup sukar untuk disediakan?
Rockers/reformis ini kini sudah mempunyai satu lagi ruang untuk mengekspressi diri…Blog. Bukan disediakan oleh Pakatan Rakyat atau Barisan Nasional tetapi diperolehi melalui revolusi teknologi.
Dan rockers a.k.a reformis a.k.a bloggers ini sudah kembali merapatkan diri untuk berjuang demi kebebasan. Dan mereka tidak peduli..BN atau PR. Bagi rockers/reformis ini, perjuangan menuntut kebebasan akan diteruskan dan siapa yang menghalang atau menekan mereka…mungkin akan tersungkur.

ReplyDeleteAmina Wadud
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Amina Wadud was born September 25, 1952 in Bethesda, Maryland. Her father was a Methodist minister and her mother descended from Muslim slaves of Arab, Berber and African ancestry dating back to the 8th Century. She is considered by many as a controversial Islamic feminist and scholar. She received her her B.S, from The University of Pennsylvania, between 1970 and 1975. In 1972 she pronounced shahadah and accepted Islam by choice, not knowing of her maternal ancestry. She received her M.A. in Near Eastern Studies and her Ph.D. in Arabic and Islamic Studies from the University of Michigan, in 1988. During graduate school, she studied advanced Arabic in Egypt at the American University in Cairo, she studied Qur'anic studies and tafsir at Cairo University, and took a course in Philosophy at Al-Azhar University.
She is currently visiting Scholar at the Starr King School of the Ministry, Berkeley CA. She achieved Full Professor of Islamic Studies at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) in Richmond, Virginia, in 2007. She is now retired from there as of 2008. She joined VCU after a three year contract as Assistant Professor at the International Islamic University Malaysia, between 1989 and 1993. Wadud's research specialities include gender and Qur'anic studies. She wrote a book on the subject, Qur'an and Woman: Rereading the Sacred Text from a Woman's Perspective. The first edition of the book, published by Fajar Bakti, an Oxford University Press Subsidiary in Malaysia while one of the founding members of Sisters in Islam in Malaysia continues to be used all over the world as a basic text for activists and academics alike.
Friday Prayer
ReplyDeleteWadud was the subject of much debate and Muslim juristic discourse after leading a Friday prayer (salat) of over 100 male and female Muslims in the Episcopal Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York on March 18, 2005, breaking with the tradition of having only male imams (prayer leaders). Three mosques had refused to host the service and the museum that had agreed to host it pulled out after a bomb threat. (The event was not the first time in the history of Islam that a woman had led the Friday prayer. See Women as imams for a discussion of the issue.)
In August 1994, Wadud delivered a Friday khutbah (sermon) on "Islam as Engaged Surrender" at the Claremont Main Road Mosque in Cape Town, South Africa. At the time, this was largely unheard of in the Muslim world. As a result, there were attempts in Virginia by some Muslims to have her removed from her position at Virginia Commonwealth University.
There has been objection and some support from Muslims around the world to Wadud's imamate. In spite of the criticism, Wadud has continued her speaking engagements, and has continued to lead mixed-gender Friday prayer services. On October 28, 2005, following her talk at the International Congress on Islamic Feminism in Barcelona, Spain, she was invited to lead a congregation of about thirty people.
The majority of the Islamic community, whether laymen and Islamic scholars, are opposed to the idea of women leading mixed gender congregations, but allow women to lead women only.[1] However, some jurists, such as the Iranian Shi'i jurist Mohsen Kadivar have espoused her view on the permissibility of female imams. It must be clarified, however, that most Shi'is do not agree with Kadivar's views.
P/S:Siapa Aminah Wadud ni?
Beliau antara pengasas Sisters in Islam selain zainah anwar
Pernah jadi imam solat jumaat dengan 100 makmum terdiri daripada lelaki dan wanita di Episcopal Cathedral of St. John the Divine di New York.
Kepada mereka yang waras dan cintakan Islam tidak akan sekali-kali membela Sisters in Islam ini.Pandangan SIS tentang hukum hudud,poligami dan aurat pula mengelirukan orang ramai.amat dikesali tokoh seperti dr mahathir dan lain lain lagi sanggup membela SIS ini.Elok disiasat juga ahli-ahli jawatankuasa atau ahli SIS ini.Sudah sampai masanya diharamkan SIS.PKR dan DAP sepatutnya tidak mudah menghentam PAS kerana ini berkaitan urusan agama Islam.Biarlah Majlis Fatwa Kebangsaan dan JAKIM buat keputusan kerana ini melibatkan kepentingan umat Islam.tok cadangkan sesiapa yang mengetahui tentang SIS,boleh kongsi di sini
Lepas ni untuk elakkan kekeliruan sesama pemimpin PR,eloklah mereka berunding atau berbincang terlebih dahulu sesama mereka sebelum keluarkan kenyataan dalam media totok umno.sekarang dah moden..ma.tak faham isu kerajaan perpaduan,hello je dia.bukan payahpun.
ReplyDeletetindakan mengeluarkan kenyataan dalam media totok umno merugikan kita semua dan terbaru kenyataan karpal singh yang mendesak PAS tinggalkan PR bukan sahaja menyentuh hati penyokong PAS kerana majoriti ahli PAS termasuklah TG Nik Aziz menolak idea kerajaan perpaduan ni.lebih sudu daripada kuah karpal singh ni.
Perbincangan lebih baik daripada mencari publisiti.
UMNO dan BN ketika ini sangat lemah dan tibalah masanya PR menjadi pilihan rakyat Malaysia.
karpal singh tu keling totok... cakap ikot sedap mulut dia je....
ReplyDeletesesuka hati nak PAS keluar dari PR...
Isu agama Islam tak seharusnya dicampuri oleh Bukan Islam.Puncanya kegagalan kerajaan pusat yang didominasi UMNO mengambil tindakan awal dan membendung SIS daripada mempengaruhi orang ramai.Inilah padahnya jika bijak dalam akademik tapi dalam ilmu agama macam hampeh.cakap pulak ikut suka hati.
ReplyDeleteApa fungsi JAKIM dan Jabatan Agama Islam Negeri.Pelik juga kenapa majlis fatwa kebangsaan mendiamkan diri selama ini?Paling penting apa yang UMNO buat?
Bahasa sendiri gagal dijaga,kini urusan agama Islam juga diabaikan kerana UMNO hanya tertarik kepada kuasa.
Sebagaimana umat Islam menghormati agama Bukan Islam,begitu jugalah Bukan Islam kena menghormati agama Islam dan jangan komen sesuka hati.Ini bukan persoalan kebebasan bersuara atau tidak demokratik semata-mata.
UMNO dah lama gagal dalam peranannya menjaga kepentingan agama Islam dan bangsa Melayu.PAS ingin menjaga kepentingan agama Islam agar tidak dicemari oleh anasir tak diingini

ReplyDeleteWASTED YEARS.
From the coast of gold across the seven seas
Im travellin on far and wide
But now it seems Im just a stranger to myself
And all the things I sometimes do
It isnt me but someone else
I close my eyes and think of home
Another city goes by in the night
Aint it funny how it is,
You never miss it til its gone away
And my heart is lying there
And will de til my dying day
So understand
Dont waste your time always
Searching for those wasted years
Face up... make your stand
And realise youre living in the golden years
Too much time on my hands, I got you on my mind
Cant easy this pain so easily
When you cant find the words to say
Its hard to make it through another day
And it just makes me wanna cry
And throw my hands up to the sky
aku ni low profile saja...
