Kisah-kisah Al-Quran > Kisah Penyembelihan
1-Setelah Nabi Ibrahim Al-Khalil a.s berpindah dari negeri kaumnya, beliau memohon kepada Allah s.w.t supaya dikurniakan seorang anak yang soleh, lalu Allah s.w.t mengembirakannya dengan mengurniakan seorang anak yang cantik iaitu Nabi Ismail a.s yang dilahirkan ketika Nabi Ibrahim a.s berumur 86 tahun. Setelah Nabi Ismail a.s meningkat dewasa, Nabi Ibrahim a.s telah bermimpi menyembelih anaknya, dimana telah ditetapkan bahawa mimpi para Nabi adalah Wahyu. Ini merupakan ujian yang besar daripada Allah s.w.t terhadap Nabi Ibrahim a.s sebagaimana firman Allah s.w.t:
(قَالَ يَابُنَيَّ إِنِّي أَرَى فِي الْمَنَامِ أَنِّي أَذْبَحُكَ فَانْظُرْ مَاذَا تَرَى)
Yang bermaksud: Wahai anak kesayanganku! Sesungguhnya aku melihat di dalam mimpi bahawa aku akan menyembelihmu, maka fikirkanlah apa pendapatmu. Lalu Nabi Ismail a.s menjawab sebagaimana firman Allah s.w.t:
(قَالَ يَاأَبَتِ افْعَلْ مَا تُؤْمَرُ سَتَجِدُنِي إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ مِنَ الصَّابِرِينَ)
Yang bermaksud: Wahai ayahku! Jalankanlah apa yang diperintahkan kepadamu, insya Allah engkau akan mendapati aku dari kalangan orang-orang yang sabar. Dikatakan kedua-duanya telah berserah diri sebagaimana firman Allah s.w.t:
(فَلَمَّا أَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهُ لِلْجَبِينِ)
Yang bermaksud: Setelah keduanya berserah bulat-bulat (menjunjung perintah Allah itu) dan Nabi Ibrahim merebahkan anaknya dengan meletakkan iringan mukanya di atas tompok tanah. (Kami sifatkan Ibrahim dengan kesungguhan azamnya itu telah menjalankan perintah kami). Setelah kedua-duanya berserah diri untuk menjalankan perintah Allah dan berazam dengan bersungguh-sungguh, Allah s.w.t telah menyeru dan memberikan khabar yang mengembirakan melalui Malaikat. Sebagaimana firman Allah s.w.t:
أَنْ يَاإِبْرَاهِيمُ، * قَدْ صَدَّقْتَ الرُّؤْيَا إِنَّا كَذَلِكَ نَجْزِي الْمُحْسِنِينَ، * إِنَّ هَذَا لَهُوَ الْبَلَاءُ الْمُبِينُ، * وَفَدَيْنَاهُ بِذِبْحٍ عَظِيمٍ، * وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِي الْآخِرِينَ، * سَلَامٌ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ، * كَذَلِكَ نَجْزِي الْمُحْسِنِينَ، * إِنَّهُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Yang bermaksud: Wahai Ibrahim! Engkau telah menyempurnakan maksud mimpi yang engkau lihat itu, demikianlah sebenarnya Kami membalas orang-orang yang berusaha mengerjakan kebaikan, sesungguhnya perintah ini adalah satu ujian yang nyata dan Kami tebus anaknya itu dengan seekor binatang sembelihan yang besar dan Kami kekalkan baginya (nama yang harum) dalam kalangan orang yang datang kemudian, salam sejahtera kepada Nabi Ibrahim, demikianlah Kami membalas orang-orang yang berusaha melakukan kebaikan, sesungguhnya Nabi Ibrahim itu dari hamba-hamba Kami yang beriman. Setelah tercapai maksud ujian terhadap Nabi Ibrahim a.s dan anaknya Ismail a.s serta mereka berdua bersegera untuk menunaikan perintah Allah s.w.t lalu Allah Taala mengantikan dengan seekor kibas putih yang mempunyai mata dan tanduk yang sempurna sebagai tebusan daripada menyembelih anaknya. Nabi Ibrahim a.s mendapati kibas tersebut terikat di sebatang pokok berhampiran bukit Thabir lalu menyembelihnya di Mina. Tempat ini telah dijadikan sebagai tempat mengerjakan ibadat Haji dan sunat berkorban bersempena dari peristiwa Nabi Ibrahim Al-Khalil a.s dan anaknya Nabi Ismail a.s serta berterusan sehingga kepada nabi kita Muhammad s.a.w.
Jenis-jenis Haji
Haji Tamattu`
Haji Tamattu' ialah berihram Umrah pada bulan-bulan Haji. Setelah selesai mengerjakan Umrah dan telahpun bertahalul, orang haji akan berniat Ihram Haji pada hari Tarwiah dan dia dikenakan menyembelih Dam.
Haji Qiran
Haji Qiran ialah berniat Umrah dan Haji secara serentak dan orang Haji tidak boleh bertahallul dari Ihram sebelum melontar Jamrah Aqabah serta bercukur atau bergunting. Dia dikenakan menyembelih Dam.
Haji Ifrad
Haji Ifrad ialah berniat Ihram Haji sahaja dari miqat kemudian hendaklah kekal di dalam Ihramnya sehingga ke hari Nahar (korban). Orang Haji yang mengerjakan Haji Ifrad tidak dikenakan Dam.
Umrah
Ibadat Umrah
Umrah ialah Haji kecil, ia diambil dari perkataan al-I'timar iaitu (ziarah). Orang yang mengerjakan Umrah akan berniat Ihram Umrah dari miqat, mengerjakan Tawaf Qudum, bersaie dan seterusnya bertahallul dari Ihramnya dengan bercukur atau bergunting.
Haji dan Umrah
Umrah (ﻋﻤﺮﻩ) ialah mengunjungi Baitullah di Makkah dan melakukan ihram, tawaf, sa'i dan bertahallul mengikut tertib.
Umrah adalah fardhu seperti Haji. Ini adalah pendapat al-Imam as-Syafie r.a. yang al-Azhar. Ijmak Ulama mengatakan bahawa hanya wajib dilakukan sekali sepanjang hayat bagi orang yang mampu kecuali orang yang bernazar, maka dia wajib memenuhi nazarnya.
Dalil daripada al-Quran ialah firman Allah Taala: Dan sempurnakanlah ibadat Haji dan Umrah kerana Allah (Al-Baqarah 196).
Sabda Nabi yang diriwayatkan Ibnu Majah, Al-Baihaqi dan sanad yang sahih daripada Aisyah r.a. katanya:
Aku berkata : "Wahai Rasullah,apakah wanita wajib berjihad?". Sabda Baginda: "Ya, jihad yang tiada peperangan padanya iaitu haji dan umrah".
Niat Ihram, Tawaf dan Sa'i tidak boleh dilakukan di mana-mana tempat lain melainkan di tempat yang ditetapkan. Iaitu niat ihram di Miqat, tawaf 7 pusingan mengelilingi Kaabah di dalam Masjidil Haram dan bersa'i 7 kali bermula di bukit Safa dan berakhir di bukit Marwah. Terakhir sekali bertahallul iaitu bercukur atau mengunting rambut sekurang-kurangnya 3 helai selepas itu, segala larangan dalam Ihram menjadi halal sepertimana sebelum beliau berihram.
Beza Umrah dengan Haji ialah Umrah boleh dilaksanakan sepanjang tahun tetapi Haji hanya boleh dilakukan pada bulan haji iaitu bulan Zulhijjah sahaja, dan hari kemuncaknya ialah pada hari Tasyrik 9,10,11,12 dimana jemaah berkumpul di Padang Arafah dan Mina.
Pada zaman sekarang Kerajaan Arab Saudi menetapkan mana jemaah umrah mestilah mengikut muassasah umrah dan memohon visa umrah melalui agensi umrah. Tiada lagi permohonan Visa umrah dapat dilakukan di Kedutaan Arab Saudi secara individu.

Roket versus Penyapu
Tajuk Yang Disukai Bulan Ini - ‘Broom award’
‘Broom award’ draws flak
KUALA LUMPUR: The Selangor Mentri Besar's awarding of brooms to under-performing local councils and state agencies to remind them to buck up has drawn flak from many quarters.
Many find his “broom bouquet” for poor performance in poor taste and crude.
The “broom award” was even brought up in Parliament on Tuesday.
The civil service umbrella union Cuepacs said it received calls from its members from other states complaining about the broom.
Cuepacs president Omar Osman said members asked if there was indeed no other way for Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Khir Toyo to express his dissatisfaction.
On Monday, at an excellence awards ceremony Dr Khir gave a broom each to the Hulu Selangor District Council and Hulu Selangor Land Office for failing to collect assessment for 2006 above the stipulated 50% mark.
Dr Khir also warned agencies that failed to hit the target for 2007 to expect the same “present”.
“We can understand the feelings of the civil servants attending the ceremony. The brooms were given openly, without even trying to disguise these by wrapping them,” said Omar on Tuesday.
“We cannot accept such an act. Although we support the Mentri Besar’s intention for all civil servants to improve their performance, there is a better way of doing it, such as giving the agencies a low star ranking or a reminder letter.”
As civil servants who form the backbone of the Selangor state government were loyal staff, they did not deserve such a treatment in public, Omar said.
Public Services director-general Tan Sri Ismail Adam declined to comment, except to say that “there are many ways of telling civil servants how to do their jobs.”
“You can tell them directly or issue them a directive. There are many ways to ‘skin a cat’ but you have to find one that is appropriate,” he said.
In Parliament, Datuk Raja Ahmad Zainuddin Raja Haji Omar (BN-Larut) questioned whether presenting a broom, which is linked to bad luck, was appropriate as an award.
“There must be other ways to motivate the staff. Certainly not a broom,” said Raja Ahmad.
Deputy Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Azizah Mohd Dun, in her reply, also said that she did not agree with giving out brooms.
“But I am sure the Selangor Mentri Besar, who is intelligent, would know its suitability,” said Azizah (BN-Beaufort).
In Penang, Deputy Health Minister Datuk Dr Abdul Latiff Ahmad said that when a person had done something good, he should be praised in public but if he has failed to perform, then he should be rebuked in private.

'Broom award' for two agencies
Unenviable award: Hulu Selangor District Council chief Tukiman Nail (right) getting the ‘broom award’ from Dr Khir at the Dewan Jubli Perak in Shah Alam Monday.
The “broom award” was printed in the programme book as Special Award Performance For Revenue Collection 2006.
SHAH ALAM: Two state government agencies were publicly rebuked when they were presented with a broom each on stage by Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Khir Toyo for failing to collect assessment above the 50% mark required for 2006.
Hulu Selangor District Council chief Tukiman Nail received the broom worth RM3.80 at the Selangor Excellence Awards at the Dewan Jubli Perak yesterday.
The other recipient, Hulu Selangor Land Office former district officer Mislan Tugiu who is now Klang Municipal Council president, is overseas and a representative received it on his behalf. He avoided pressmen after leaving the stage.
Earlier, officers had tried to keep the two brooms away, hoping that Dr Khir would forget, but he asked for them despite the unease among the several hundred government staff who attended the event.
Many staff members shook their heads when the brooms were presented to the recipients.
“The broom is not meant to shame the officer but it is a reminder that the government wants all departments to buck up and improve to become results-oriented,” said Dr Khir.
“Many times, we have called for improvement but it has fallen on deaf ears. When agencies knew they would receive the brooms, they automatically collected their revenue, hitting 90% for 2007.
“But the broom was for 2006 and it had to be given so that officers would know that I mean business,” he stressed.
Dr Khir said that agencies which fail to hit the 2007 performance target would also get the broom.
“We can’t have those with a lackadaisical attitude,” he said.
Aku lagi tak faham khir oi, apa yang hang dok buat ni. Come on, we're living in the new millenium, ini sudah tahun 2007, bukan zaman kesultanan Melaka, di mana datuk dan panglima boleh buat apa saja...... this is not the jungle age man.... ini zaman micro cips, dan orang Malaysia pun dah sampai ke angkasa lepas lagi....
Alamak what is happening...
I hope Pak Lah is taking note of this event close to his heart and mind......
takutlah orang lain buat contoh..
Action speak louder than words.... so words khir ni tak siapa peduli tapi aksi dia hahhhhh! terlampau kan?
Nasib baik yang kena pun orang yang dia sendiri pilih duduk di kerusi tu, if not lagi kesianla.........
Kawan buat kat kawan..... ha ha
satu soalan lagi....
Awat! Pak Lah pun dok buat macamni ka?
Pemimpin tertinggi dok tunjuk jalan betul, yang bawah over tak tentu hal...
Hai gerammmmmmmmmm...nye!
Hulu Selangor diberi Anugerah Penyapu
PERLU TINGKAT KUTIPAN: Dr Mohamad Khir (kiri) menyampaikan penyapu kepada Yang Dipertua MDHS, Tukiman Nail, sebagai simbolik pada majlis anugerah sempena Bulan Kualiti 2007 di Shah Alam, semalam.
SHAH ALAM: Pejabat Tanah dan Daerah (PTD) Hulu Selangor serta Majlis Daerah Hulu Selangor (MDHS) menjadi penerima pertama 'Anugerah Penyapu' daripada kerajaan negeri kerana gagal mencapai sasaran kutipan hasil cukai semasa dan tunggakan tahun lalu.
Anugerah Khas sebatang penyapu yang diikat riben itu disampaikan Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Khir Toyo kepada wakil jabatan dan agensi berkenaan pada majlis anugerah sempena Bulan Kualiti 2007 Pentadbiran Setiausaha Kerajaan Negeri, di sini, semalam.
PTD Hulu Selangor dan MDHS hanya memungut 55 peratus cukai semasa dan 56 peratus cukai tertunggak, manakala MDHS memungut 66.9 peratus hasil cukai semasa dan 23.4 peratus cukai tertunggak tahun lalu.
Kerajaan Selangor menetapkan semua sembilan PTD serta 12 PBT memungut 90 peratus hasil cukai semasa dan 70 peratus hasil tunggakan cukai setiap tahun.
Dr Mohamad Khir berkata, anugerah itu diberi sebagai simbolik kepada PTD Hulu Selangor dan MDHS supaya berusaha membaiki prestasi untuk memenuhi sasaran yang ditetapkan kerajaan.
"Anugerah ini bukan bertujuan memalukan, menjatuhkan atau merendahkan semangat individu atau jabatan kerajaan dan PBT, tetapi memberi kesedaran supaya berusaha membaiki prestasi pada masa datang.
"Kita dapati tiada tindakan diambil oleh pegawai terbabit walaupun gagal mencapai tahap minimum yang ditetapkan," katanya.
Dr Mohamad Khir berkata, anugerah penyapu itu sebagai simbolik dan peringatan kepada pegawai atasan jabatan kerajaan dan PBT supaya membersihkan sikap tidak produktif kakitangan bawahan.
Katanya, sejak dimaklumkan pemberian Anugerah Penyapu itu awal tahun ini, PTD Hulu Selangor dan MDHS menunjukkan prestasi membanggakan sehingga September lalu.
Tujuh PTD dan PBT mencatatkan kutipan melebihi sasaran ditetapkan tahun lalu didahului PTD Sepang yang mengutip 112 peratus hasil cukai semasa dan 73 peratus cukai tertunggak diikuti PTD Hulu Langat, Majlis Perbandaran Subang Jaya (MPSJ), Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam (MBSA), Majlis Perbandaran Sepang (MPSp), Majlis Perbandaran Ampang Jaya (MPAJ) dan Majlis Bandaraya Petaling Jaya (MBPJ).
Semua jabatan dan agensi terbabit dibawa mengadakan lawatan ke Melbourne, Australia, selama lima hari pada pertengahan April lalu sebagai insentif.
** If it's me, I won't go up the stage to receive that award... not of embarassment but more on upright principle. I think all of us are brought up to aknowledge that brooms brings no luck or meaning you are cursed if a broom comes into hitting contact upon you for any reasons. This award is a hit with the most hitting impact! Well, that man up there in the picture is all cursed up..... believe me and i wouldn't want to be in his shoes.**

Nurin Jazlin Jasimin
It a very emotional weekend for most of us who has been tracking the episod of the lost nurin. A lot has been done by the family, relatives, neighbours, friends and those who cares eventhough they have no linkage at all with Nurin Jazlin Jasimin who went missing since one month ago.
There must be a hikmah here for such a dreadful thing to happen, especially to someone who is as helpless and innocence.
We pray that Allay, bless her and her parents and gives them the courage to move on in life as they have other children to take care of. Love them more now, since you have less to love now.
Al-Fatihah

Still on DNA -
This is an article taken from - http://nurinjazlin.blogspot.com
A number of readers suggested that a second DNA should have been taken to erase all doubts.
This was what our stand initially as well upon being bried on the DNA report by the PJ OCPD at 10.00 p.m., 20th September 2007.
However, as explained in my earlier post, it was the parents who had decided to rely on the DNA coupled with the dental records in their decision to claim the body (of which now has been confirmed as Nurin) along with the acceptance that the body had various other similar features to Nurin indeed in the wee hours of Friday, 21st September 2007.
With that decision, the earlier arrangement made with IPD Petaling Jaya for a second DNA test coupled with veryfing the body against Nurin's medical records, thumb print etc on that Friday morning was called of.
When the parents informed the Police that we are now would be claiming the bosy instead, the body was then prepared accordingly to Islamic rites (mandi mayat).
When we arrived at the mortuary to collect the body, it all clear to everyone, including Jazimin that the body was no other than Nurin.
This might sound like coming from a religious movie script, but that is the fact, the face was now recognisable eventhough just a day before it was not.
There is a "hikmah" in this, the act of the parents agreeing to the DNA results (which was made available to them last), had sort of avoided the body to continue to be in limbo for a few more days.
Therefore, the family is genuinely certain that the body claimed was none other than Nurin, and there is no necessity for a second DNA test.
It is rather unfortunate that there are some parties who are trying to cast doubts to the mother's mind by continuosly asking whether she was certain of the body was Nurin and not someone else.
They had actually "integorated" her at the burial grounds itself, at a time when one was in their lowest point.
They have actually succeeded in getting some "confessions" from the mother that fits their agenda to paint the Police force as an (one) "unreliable" and "despicable" force that works around conspiracy theory.
So readers, if you are to come across any notion of such in any press (or article) reports within the next few days, please take my word, you can actually chuck the whole newspaper into the dustbin as the journalism practice in getting that news scoop was totally deplorable.
No one should be casting any doubt that Nurin has been safely buried at 2.45 pm 21st September 2007 at the Ibu Kota Muslim Burial Grounds, Kuala Lumpur.

Nurin laid to rest

Norazian Bistaman sprinkling holy water on her daughter Nurin's grave.
She was buried at around 2.25pm after which the talqin (burial rituals) was recited at 2.32pm.
KUALA LUMPUR: The body of the missing girl Nurin Jazlin Jazimin, 8, was finally laid to rest at the Ibu Kota Muslim Cemetery in Taman Danau Kota on Friday.
It was an emotional scene as scores of solemn faces of all races paid their last respects to Nurin and offered condolences to the family.
Tears and sweat trickled down Jazimin's face as he eventually broke down and hugged his wife Norazian Bistaman, who was crying and did not utter a word throughout the funeral.
Earlier in the day, Jazimin, Nurin's father, was calm and composed when he claimed Nurin's body at the Hospital Kuala Lumpur mortuary at around 11.15am.
Jazimin, who was clad in a baju melayu and black trousers, was accompanied by family members and relatives.
He evaded reporters and sped off in a hearse that was carrying Nurin's body.
They arrived at the the Madrasah As Sa'adah in Section One, Wangsa Maju where Nurin's body was brought for the prayer for the deceased at around noon.
Jazimin told reporters that he willingly accepted the DNA results, which proved that his wife's DNA and his matched that of the body found stuffed in a sports bag on Monday.
The prayer for the deceased was conducted after the Friday prayers before Nurin's body was brought to the burial ground.
At least 400 people including family, relatives, friends and well-wishers regardless of race and age expressed their condolences at the madrasah.
Roads leading to the madrasah were congested with a few police personnel manning the traffic and there was a long queue of cars looking for parking.
On Thursday, Selangor police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar confirmed that the results of the DNA test done on the blood sample taken from the dead girl matched that of Jazimin, 33, and his wife Norazian, 35.
Both parents were at first adamant that the body found stuffed in a sports bag was not their daughter, saying the body did not look like Nurin.
The parents said that Nurin had a scar on her thigh and that her teeth did not have gaps like that found on the body.

"Moses has revealed the existence of God to his nation. Jesus Christ to the Roman world, Muhammad to the old continent... "Arabia was idolatrous when, six centuries after Jesus, Muhammad introduced the worship of the God of Abraham, of Ishmael, of Moses, and Jesus. The Ariyans and some other sects had disturbed the tranquility of the east by agitating the question of the nature of the Father, the son, and the Holy Ghost. Muhammad declared that there was none but one God who had no father, no son and that the trinity imported the idea of idolatry...
"I hope the time is not far off when I shall be able to unite all the wise and educated men of all the countries and establish a uniform regime based on the principles of Qur'an which alone are true and which alone can lead men to happiness.
" Sir George Bernard Shaw in 'The Genuine Islam,' Vol. 1, No. 8, 1936.
"If any religion had the chance of ruling over England, nay Europe within the next hundred years, it could be Islam." "I have always held the religion of Muhammad in high estimation because of its wonderful vitality. It is the only religion which appears to me to possess that assimilating capacity to the changing phase of existence which can make itself appeal to every age. I have studied him - the wonderful man and in my opinion far from being an anti-Christ, he must be called the Savior of Humanity."
"I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it the much needed peace and happiness: I have prophesied about the faith of Muhammad that it would be acceptable to the Europe of tomorrow as it is beginning to be acceptable to the Europe of today.
"Sir John Bagot Glubb "Khalif (Caliph) Al-Ma'mun's period of rule (813 - 833 C.E.) may be considered the 'golden age' of science and learning. He had always been devoted to books and to learned pursuits. His brilliant mind was interested in every form of intellectual activity. Not only poetry but also philosophy, theology, astronomy, medicine and law all occupied his time."
"By Mamun's time medical schools were extremely active in Baghdad. The first free public hospital was opened in Baghdad during the Caliphate of Haroon-ar-Rashid. As the system developed, physicians and surgeons were appointed who gave lectures to medical students and issued diplomas to those who were considered qualified to practice. The first hospital in Egypt was opened in 872 AD and thereafter public hospitals sprang up all over the empire from Spain and the Maghrib to Persia." On the Holocaust of Baghdad (1258 C.E.)

"Arabia was idolatrous when, six centuries after Jesus, Muhammad introduced the worship of the God of Abraham, of Ishmael, of Moses, and Jesus.

Muhammad declared that there was none but one God who had no father, no son and that the trinity imported the idea of idolatry...

Pond squat issue: Settled, all is forgiven
The dust has settled over the infamous "pond squat" issue and SMK Bawang Assan school warden Wee Yim Pien has been forgiven.
She has also apologised to the families for forcing some 170 girl boarders into a fishpond last week.
Wee, 27, who is also the schools' English teacher, with a Master's degree, had meted out the punishment over repeated dumping of sanitary pads in the school's toilet bowls.
The school’s parent-teacher association chairman Jimmy Kiu said: "Everybody has forgiven her."
He added that the parents and the students wanted the teacher to stay.
"We do not want the students to suffer as the PMR examination is coming.
“The incident is settled in good faith.It is hoped that there is no more a repetition,” Kiu said in a telephone interview on Thursday.
This followed a meeting attended by Kiu, Wee, school principal Kandon Ngadi, Sibu divisional education officer Charles Tiong. parents and Deputy Education Minister Datuk Noh Omar’s special representative Shashim Shah on Wednesday.
An emotional Wee was seen hugging some of the parents and shook hands with others as the episode came to an end.
Kiu said it would be up to the state Education Department to decide whether action should be taken against Wee. (Masih tak puas hati kot)
Shashim said the department’s report on the investigation into the incident had been sumbitted to the Education Ministry, which would decide if any action would be taken against Wee.
Asked if Wee would continue as the warden, Kiu declined to comment, saying that this was the school’s administrative matter. The school has more than 500 students, including some 300 borders.
An earlier report by the same newspaper
1. Teacher in ‘pond squat’ case not suspended
KUCHING: The SMK Bawang Assan warden who forced 200 schoolgirls to squat in a pond as a form of punishment is not under suspension.
State education director Rabiah Johari clarified that Wee Yim Pien, also the school’s English teacher, had not gone on leave as reported.
“She is back teaching at the school,” she told reporters after receiving anti-bullying posters for schools. “A police report has not been lodged.”
Rabiah said the department would decide on the next course of action when the probe was completed. She said the department did not condone what Wee had done but pointed out that teachers needed to take disciplinary action against errant students.
“We don’t want teachers to not discipline students as this will lead to social problems. In a case like this, we do not look only at the teacher’s actions but also whether she was feeling pressured or stressed.
“After all, according to reports she had been trying for three years to get the students to dispose sanitary pads properly and not clog the toilets,” she said.
The Sarawak Teachers Union (STU) has come out in support of its members accused of meting out harsh punishment on students.
Its president William Gani Bina noted that teachers and school heads were helpless as they could not reply to the accusations thrown at them in public.
“No teacher or school head who is in the right frame of mind would mete out excessive punishments,” he said adding that student indiscipline was on the rise.
He said there were an increasing number of students who have total disregard for school authority, and disobeying orders and directives.
Meanwhile the school’s parent-teacher association chairman Jimmy Kiu said Wee had apologised to the parents in a meeting yesterday.
Following the apology, he said the parents withdrew their demand (wow, depa bayaq gaji kot)for Wee to be transferred out.
2. Ministry to probe squatting incident
The Education Ministry will carry out a thorough investigation into a claim that 200 girl boarders in Sarawak were forced into a fish pond as punishment because one of them left a sanitary towel in a toilet bowl.
Education Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein said an investigation was under way to establish what actually happened.
It was reported that the girls from a secondary school in Sibu were forced to squat in the murky fish pond for an hour.
The Form One to Form Five students were allegedly forced into the pond inside the school compound from 4pm on Wednesday by a woman warden.
The warden watched over them with an umbrella as it was raining.
“We do not want to point fingers at anyone now but we will take action against those who are wrong,” Hishammuddin told reporters after attending the convocation of 500 teachers at the Teachers Training Institute here yesterday.
In Kuching, Assistant Minister in the Chief Minister’s Department Fatimah Abdullah said the case should be brought to the school’s disciplinary board and a report handed over to the state education department.
Fatimah said any punishment meted out must be in accordance with the school’s rules and regulations.
“But I’m sure the punishment for those caught throwing a sanitary pad into the toilet bowl is not asking them to squat in a pond.”
The school's parent-teacher association chairman Jimmy Kiu who runs the school canteen, witnessed the incident and contacted a local daily to expose the incident.
Describing the punishment as “harsh”, Kiu said he would speak to the parents before deciding on the next course of action. (Ini bahasa orang nak bakar lemang sampai rentung)

Tips By Datuk Dr Fadzilah Kamsah
These are extra tips for all as given by Dr. Fadzilah Kamsah in a seminar
Tatacara makan & minum
=====================
Sebelum tidur, maafkan semua orang tak kira siapa Insya-Allah, Allah lipat gandakan rezeki.
Sebelum tidur, berdoa, depends on apa yg kita hendaksepanjang tidur, otak akan generatekan all of our wish & Insya-Allah,kita akan work towards it (ada semangat) dikeesokan harinya.
Makan buah sebelum breakfast, lunch & dinnerikut Sunnah & dapat pahala & also boleh rujuk kpd pakar pemakanan, vitamin C dari buah2an yg dimakan selepas breakfast, lunch & dinner yang akandiperolehi adalah approaching 0%.
Jangan minum air semasa sedang makan (breakfast,lunch & dinner).Minum air selepas 15-30 minit selesai makan.
Untuk minum, bagi tegukygpertama sahaja, biarkan air dlm mulut about 10s then baru telan.Teguk kedua & seterusnya boleh minum terussebab air liur ada enzyme yg boleh membunuh kuman dlm pankreas, perut,& so on yg akan dibawa oleh air tegukan pertama.Seelok2nya makan malam sebelum maghribikut sunnah (Rasullullah makan sblm maghrib kecuali bulan Ramadhan sajaie masa maghrib), sebab, bagi yang tegah study (or anak2), otak akan berfungsi excellently(senang absorb ilmu) around 2 hrs selepas makan so, if makan at 8:30pm,around 10:30pm baru start study and most probably hanya boleh bertahan hingga jam 12 tegah malam saja, jadi, tak banyak yang boleh dipelajari berbanding kalau makan pukul 6:30 (org Cina take dinner around this hour). Juga, kita tak tidur dalam kekenyangan (yg mana boleh menghindar dari membuat sembahyang malam)
Tatacara di bilik air===============Selepas buang air kecil, berdehem 3x (teran sikit)boleh elak daripada dapat batu karangSemasa buang air besar, mengiring sedikit ke kiriikut sunnah sbb bila mengiring ke kiri, perut akan tekan bladder and senang buang air besar
Tatacara didik anak================Antara tips untuk dapat anak bijak/genius, ajar anak(baby) tidur mengiring ke kanan ~ sebab jantung (yg terletak sblh kiri)akanlebih "lapang"/"lega" dan mudah berdegup (perjalanan darah okay) and otakanak akan develop excellently.* Bagi anak2 yang dah azalinya active or hyper-active, kurang (or jangan)pakaikan baju warna orangesebab warna ini boleh merangsang secara actifnya tindak tanduk anakTatacara didik diri sendiri====================Rasullullah (saw) bersabda, sesuatu amalan yg diamalkan sekitar 21-30 hari, continuously, akan menjadi tabiat and kalau tak, ilmu itu akan mati.Buang segala rasa hasad dengki, dendam & lain2 yg negatifemosi2 ini akan membenarkan otak release excessive adrenaline,cortisone & toxine yg mana boleh membawa kepada beberapa penyakit cepat letih, wajah cepat nampak tua (tua sebelum waktunya), selalu sakit perut & etc
Ada 3 kategori manusia :-
1. BERJAYA: Hari ini lebih baik daripada semalam

"Apabila kita kejar dunia, dunia akan lari; tetapi apabila kita kejarakhirat, dunia akan mengejar kita" Just to ambil iktibar untuk mendidikdiri & family. Usia dunia sudah terlalu hampir ke penghujungnya, terlalu!So, it's good if we can remind each other because in Rasulullah's lastsermon, baginda pun did mention that all those who listen to him (on thatday) shall pass on his words to others, and those to others again; and may the last ones understand his words better that those who listen to himdirectly...
Yang baik datang dari Allah & yang kurang itu is from my weaknesses.
Do impart this knowledge & you'll lose nothing.

KEMERDEKAAN MALAYSIA
Sempena Bulan Kemerdekaan.........detik-detik bersejarah.....
Pilihan raya umum yang pertama ditandingkan pada tahun 1955. Parti-parti seperti PAS, Parti Negara di bawah pimpinan Dato' Onn bin Jaafar, Parti Buruh, Parti Progresif Perak, Parti Perikatan UMNO-MCA-MIC dan sebagainya bertanding dalam pilihan raya umum tersebut.Parti Perikatan UMNO-MCA-MIC memenangi 51 kerusi daripada 52 kerusi yang dipertandingkan. 1 kerusi lagi dimenangi oleh PAS. Dengan kemenangan dalam pilihan raya, kabinet kerajaan telah dibentuk. Tunku Abdul Rahman menjadi Ketua Menteri yang pertama. Pada tahun 1956, Tunku Abdul Rahman mengetuai suatu rombongan ke London untuk membincangkan perkara-perkara mengenai kemerdekaan. Rundingan ini mengambil masa tiga minggu di London. Perjanjian London 1956 ditandatangani pada 8 Februari 1956 yang menyatakan persetujuan memberi kemerdekaan kepada Tanah Melayu. Sekembali ke Tanah Melayu, Tunku Abdul Rahman mengumumkan tarikh kemerdekaan di Melaka.
Pada tahun 1956, suatu Suruhanjaya Perlembagaan Komanwel ditubuhkan untuk menggubal perlembagaan. Suruhanjaya Perlembagaan Komanwel atau lebih dikenali sebagai Suruhanjaya Reid yang dipengerusi oleh Lord Reid dari Britian terdiri daripada pakar-pakar undang dari negara Komanwel. Laporan yang dikeluarkan oleh Suruhanjaya Reid dipinda oleh Jawatankuasa Kerja dan diluluskan oleh Majlis Undangan Persekutuan. Bendera Union Jack iaitu bendera British diturunkan di hadapan Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad, Kuala Lumpur pada tepat pukul 12 malam 31 Ogos 1957. Kemudian, Perdana Menteri Persekutuan Tanah Melayu, Tunku Abdul Rahman mengisytiharkan kemerdekaan di Stadium Merdeka. Jemaah Menteri diumumkan juga pada hari pengisytiharan kemerdekaan.
Pengistiharan Kemerdekaan
Apabila tarikh Kemerdekaan telah ditentukan, Tunku telah mengarah Jabatan Kerja Raya untuk membina sebuah stadium terbuka yang akan dijadikan tempat pengistiharan Kemerdekaan. Tunku memilih sendiri lokasinya, di sebuah bukit yang rendah berdekatan Jalan Birch dan stadium itu dinamakan 'Stadium Merdeka'.
Stadium Merdeka 5.00 pagi, 31 Ogos 1957, hujan turun dengan lebatnya. Dato' Abdul Razak yang melawat Stadium pada pagi itu gelisah dengan takungan air di tengah-tengah padang di mana Askar Melayu akan mengadakan perbarisan kehormat. Dato' Razak adalah Timbalan Pengerusi, Jawatankuasa Persiapan Kemerdekaan dengan Tunku sendiri adalah Pengerusinya.
7.00 pagi, hujan mulai reda. Dato' Razak menalipon Tunku dan melaporkan keadaan di stadium. Beliau mencadangkan agar ketibaan Raja-raja Melayu, Duke serta isteri dan Pesuruhjaya Tinggi dilewatkan satu jam.
9.00 pagi, langit mulai cerah, rintik-rintik hujan semakin mengecil dan hilang dari pandangan. Perabut dan perhiasan mula dibawa keluar dengan kadar segera. Tunku telah bersiap sedia di rumahnya. Berbaju Melayu hitam, berkain samping, berselitkan keris bersarong gading dipinggang serta bertengkolok songket, Tunku menantikan saat untuk bertolak.
Di Stadium Merdeka, Tunku berdiri gagah menerima ketibaan Duke of Gloucester yang memakai pakaian istiadat ketenteraan British berpangkat Field Marshall. 'God Save The Queen' berkumandang ketika Duke of Gloucester yang merupakan pakcik Queen Elizabeth II masuk da mengambil tempat. Duke telah diiringi oleh Pesuruhjaya Tinggi British, Sir Donald MacGillivray.
Raja-raja Melayu pula duduk dipayungi oleh sembilan payung kuning, Yang DiPertuan Agong pula duduk di tengah-tengah, di kirinya Tunku dan di kanannya Duke.
Duke kemudiannya menyerah 'Instrumen Kemerdekaan' yang mana merupakan suatu pengakuan British bahawa ia menyerahkan kedaulatan Pulau Pinang dan Melaka kepada negara baru ini dan seterusnya menarik balik 'perlindungan' yang diberikan kepada negeri-negeri Melayu.
Tunku kemudiannya membacakan pengistiharan Kemerdekaan yang antara lainnya menyebut "Dengan nama Allah, Persekutuan Tanah Melayu untuk selamanya sebuah negara yang demokratik dan Merdeka".
Acapkali suaranya tenggelam dan pekikan Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka! oleh rakyat sebuah negara baru yang lahir dari suatu perjuangan yang suci.
Seorang anak bangsa yang menyaksikan segalanya di depan mata, menghuraikan pengalamannya, Hujan renyai-renyai menghiasi pagi. Tanpa disedari linangan air mata membasahi pipi. Stadium Merdeka dibanjiri oleh anak-anak bangsa yang datang dari setiap pelusuk negeri. Masing-masing hadir dengan harapan yang tinggi. Menjadi saksi, satu peristiwa yang penuh bererti, yang tidak akan dilupai tersemat disanubari sampai mati.
Merdeka telah kita miliki 'Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!

Farewell Keetha
At last, its time to say farewell to Miss Keetha, a DELC officer seconded by the Education Ministry to perform her responsibility in the remotest district in Penang. She's been here in Jawi for one and a half years, standing in for Miss Dot Mckenzie, who decided to leave her job and take a more interesting offer in the Middle East, February last year.
Since then we came to know Keetha and day by day the experience which this lady brings along with her has given us a very useful insight of what ELT is really all about. The teachers in the district are more relaxe with her, and she made herself useful to them by visiting the schools and helping teachers whenever the need arises. Workshops are conducted more often. Teaching clinics are prompted and the teachers here find that these are more interesting than the usual teaching courses that they have attended.
Keetha has also shown us that our syllabus is too heavy for the mid-ability pupils to follow. Hence, she made the teachers understand that few is not too little, and many does mean you cannot handle it, and nor does your pupils.
I remember vividly how she gasp when she learned the number of new words that a child in year three learns in a week. "No,no,no too many..... , it's too much. They cannot... they just can't.... ." She has said these and I believed, yes they are too many, but we cannot stop here and bring down the the level because we are way out there in front competing with the little singaporean that has gone too far ahead of us.
So to Keetha, thanks for the contribution, sharing of ideas, experience and most of all the warmth that you so willingly spend and shared with us through these one and a half years. We cherished the fond thoughts and hope you never forget us wherever you are. And at the same time we wish you all the best in whatever and wherever you may be.

NUTP dakwa kenyataan Hon ‘membuta tuli’
Kesatuan Perkhidmatan Perguruan Kebangsaan (NUTP) semalam membidas Timbalan Menteri Pelajaran, Datuk Hon Choon Kim yang didakwa mengeluarkan cadangan ‘membuta tuli’ membabitkan guru seolah-olah tidak menghormati sumbangan guru selama ini.
Presiden NUTP, Anuar Ibrahim, berkata kenyataan Hon yang mahu tempat makan guru tidak diasingkan dengan murid bagi membolehkan tiada perbezaan kualiti makanan disediakan pengusaha kantin, memperlihatkan beliau gagal melihat sumbangan dan pengorbanan guru kepada murid selama ini.“Kami rayu janganlah mana-mana timbalan menteri melontarkan cadangan yang kadang-kadang tidak menghormati maruah guru seperti dikeluarkan timbalan menteri berhubung soal mengatasi kes keracunan makanan di sekolah,” katanya ketika dihubungi semalam.
Beliau berkata demikian ketika diminta mengulas cadangan Hon kelmarin yang menyebut adalah tidak praktikal sekiranya ruang makan pelajar diasingkan daripada guru kerana ia boleh menyebabkan penyediaan dua kualiti makanan berbeza mengikut kuasa beli.
“Saya tidak nampak rasional mengasingkan tempat makan di kantin, termasuk menyediakan bilik khas untuk guru. Bagi saya ia tidak praktikal kerana akan menyebabkan pengusaha kantin memberi khidmat dan kualiti makanan berbeza yang mengutamakan guru,” kata Hon.
Beliau berkata, cadang Hon itu boleh dilaksanakan jika menteri atau timbalan menteri sanggup tidak diasingkan ketika menikmati makanan dalam majlis atau keraian yang dianjurkan kerajaan mahu pun pihak lain.
“NUTP cadangkan supaya semua menteri dan timbalan menteri tidak lagi disediakan meja atau bilik khas untuk semua jamuan yang dianjurkan dan perlu beratur untuk mengambil makanan sendiri. Adakah Hon sanggup?“Kami tidak mengharapkan yang bukan-bukan, tetapi hormatilah sedikit maruah kami dengan tidak mencadangkan sesuatu secara membuta-tuli tanpa menghiraukan perasaan semua guru. Perkara ini mungkin kecil bagi sesetengah pihak, tetapi lama kelamaan jika dibiarkan ia mampu melunturkan semangat guru,” katanya.
Beliau berkata, cadangan sebegitu tidak akan timbul sama sekali jika Hon memahami konsep yang diterapkan kepada lebih 10,000 kantin sekolah di seluruh negara.
“Adalah tidak adil meletakkan tanggungjawab semua perkara kepada guru apabila terjadi sesuatu perkara seperti keracunan makanan. Takkan semua guru nak jadi ‘food tester’ kantin sekolah dan kalau tak mati baru nak umumkan makanan selamat dan suruh murid makan?
“Orang yang mencadangkan perkara sedemikian sebenarnya tidak faham apa yang berlaku di semua kantin sekolah seluruh negara. Kebanyakan guru makan apa yang dimakan murid kerana pihak kantin menyediakan makanan sama tetapi mungkin ada tambahan lauk sedikit.
“Guru juga berhak mendapat ruang makan berasingan untuk menjarakkan sedikit hubungan antara guru dan pelajar bagi mewujudkan perasaan hormat. Apa lagi memang ada guru yang gemar makan bersama murid mereka dan kebanyakan sekolah luar bandar juga tidak mempunyai ruang makan berasingan,” katanya.
Anuar berkata, Hon sebenarnya tidak menyedari kewujudan Jawatankuasa Kantin di semua sekolah seluruh negara yang dianggotai semua guru yang memantau penyediaan makanan kepada murid setiap hari.“Guru akan makan makanan yang disediakan setiap hari dan ia dicatat dalam laporan khusus, jadi tidak logik jika mengatakan makanan guru dan pelajar mereka berbeza,” katanya.
Presiden NUTP, Anuar Ibrahim, berkata kenyataan Hon yang mahu tempat makan guru tidak diasingkan dengan murid bagi membolehkan tiada perbezaan kualiti makanan disediakan pengusaha kantin, memperlihatkan beliau gagal melihat sumbangan dan pengorbanan guru kepada murid selama ini.“Kami rayu janganlah mana-mana timbalan menteri melontarkan cadangan yang kadang-kadang tidak menghormati maruah guru seperti dikeluarkan timbalan menteri berhubung soal mengatasi kes keracunan makanan di sekolah,” katanya ketika dihubungi semalam.

Anuar berkata, Hon sebenarnya tidak menyedari kewujudan Jawatankuasa Kantin di semua sekolah seluruh negara yang dianggotai semua guru yang memantau penyediaan makanan kepada murid setiap hari.“Guru akan makan makanan yang disediakan setiap hari dan ia dicatat dalam laporan khusus, jadi tidak logik jika mengatakan makanan guru dan pelajar mereka berbeza,” katanya.
