When competitors compete in their respective events,
they actually gather different attentions. First from people who admire their
talents, and second, media and personnel who exploit their sexuality. Anna
Kournikova might not have won any tennis Grand Slams, but her sexy images is
exploited every pages of men magazines. Wikipedia: “Sports Illustrated is an
American sports media franchise owned by Time Incorporated. The magazine has
over 3 million subscribers and is read by 23
million people each week, including over 18 million men”, especially in its
swimsuit issue which publishes images of sexy female athletes. And wonder why
women beach volleyball is the most watched events in the Olympic games? Then
you also have the top sexy categories such as “Top 20 sexiest female athletes”
or “top 10 sexiest female swimmers”, or “top 10 hottest female gymnast” and
even “top hottest male athletes” and “top 10 hottest footballers” coming out
every year. Does a fly prefer to feed on covered meat or exposed meat? Does a
mosquito prefer to bite someone with clothes on or without clothes? If a
competitor competes in the aforementioned events, i.e. events which require
them to expose their body parts, they must be aware of the risks, and should
not blame those who make fun on their sexuality. These liberal systems are so
decadent and so exploitative.

Sex on the back of a camel, why not? - a failure to understand Arabic idioms
Many people fail to understand the Arabic language or its idioms. One cannot simply take the literal meaning upon translating to other languages.
One hadith mentioned about “into the lizard’s hole”
The prophet (S.A.W.) said, "You will surely follow the ways, steps, or traditions of those who came before you, span by span and yard by yard (very closely) even if they entered into a lizard's hole you will enter it." The companions asked, "O prophet, you mean the Jews and Christians?" He replied, "Who else!?" [Reported by Imaam Bukhaari]
The hadith does not mean literally “enter the lizard hole”, rather do whatever other people do, even stupid as it may seem, like entering the lizard hole.
Similarly, “onto the camel’s back” does not mean literally riding on the camel. The meaning for the Arabs at that time is “while travelling”, as camels were used as a means of travelling. And on the camel’s back means while travelling, be it on a cruise ship, on wheeled vehicles including stoppage at some fancy hotels and rest houses, before reaching the destination.
And last and not least, camel toe does not mean the toe of the camel, it means something else. So be careful about the camel, this animal has so many idioms that people often forget.
To begin with the Arabic language, do not take its literal meaning.
Make ready for them all thou canst of (armed) force
and of horses tethered, that thereby ye may dismay the enemy of Allah and your
enemy, and others beside them whom ye know not. [TMQ, Pickthall translation, al-Anfaal:
60].
In this verse, it mentions horses, for the army to
gather their horses of war, to strike fear against the enemy. Horses were used as
a mobile vehicle in the time of war, in the time of Holy Prophet Muhammad
(SAW), as much as tanks, armoured vehicles, jet-fighters used now in modern
warfare.
This verse does contain references to horses as a mobile vehicle, but
in modern warfare, this is not acceptable. Any modern army will not resort
horses as a means of weapons, the use of horses will not inflict fear on the
hearts of the enemy. Therefore the use of “horses” in the verse cannot be taken
literally, as “on the camels’ back” must not be taken literally. For those who have
no knowledge on Arabic language, despite the zeal to use the Arabic word “Allah”
in the Bible text, the effort to study the Arabic language is simply absent

Under house arrest on Fridays – a rebuttal
The writer, attacks and frowns upon the punishment of
those muslims who skip Friday prayer, and suggests that those who do must
remain under house-arrest. He does not include the divine text which supports
these punishments of individuals who skip Friday prayers, it is unsure whether
he is aware of this, or otherwise.
Islam is a complete system, it has punishment systems
which its adherent must obey. Just as a secular country, who implement
punishment systems to whoever who transgress upon it. If anyone found guilty of
possession of dangerous drugs, is punishable, and these laws established in a
secular-surrogate institution, i.e. parliament, which gives human the authority
on how to run society.
Missing Friday prayers, is punishable according to
Islamic divine rules, because it is an act of mungkar. Those who fail to enjoin
the punishment is also committing an act of sin, as they do not enjoin the
right and forbid the mungkar.
“Those who when we establish them (in authority) in the
earth they establish the Salah, collect the Zakah, enjoin all that is Ma.roof
and forbid all that is Munkar, and to Allah belongs the return of all
matters..” (TMQ al-Hajj, verse 41)
“Nay, by Allah, you have to enjoin the ma’roof and forbid
the munkar, and hold at the hand of the tyrant, and force him on the truth and
restrict him to the truth.” [Reported by Abu Dawud and Tirmizi].
Ahmad narrated on the authority of Abu Bakrah that the
messenger said: "If the people see the Munkar (evil, wrong doing) and they
do not change it, Allah will take them with a punishment".
“He who amongst you sees a Munkar should change it with his hand; and if
he has not enough strength to do so, then he should change it with his tongue;
and if he has not enough strength to do so, (even) then he should change it
with his heart, and that is the weakest of faith.?” (Reported by Muslim on the
authority of Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri) This honorable hadith obliged any Muslim who
sees a Munkar to
change it with his hand; if he is unable to do so, then he should change it
with his tongue; and if he is unable to do so, then he should change it with
his heart, and that is the weakest degree of faith. Hence, any Muslim who is
able to carry out the highest degree of faith should not resort to the weakest
one.
The Qur’an mentions some of the main characteristics of the believers: “(Triumphant) are those who turn repentant (to Allah), those who serve (Him), those who praise (Him), those who fast, these who bow down, those who fall prostrate (in worship), those who enjoin the right and who forbid the wrong and those who keep the limits (ordained) of Allah…” (At-Tawbah 9: 112)
Just as the Ever-Glorious Qur’an praised those who enjoin Ma`ruf and forbid Munkar, it also dispraised those who fail to do so. Almighty Allah says, “Those of the children of Israel who went astray were cursed by the tongue of David, and of Jesus, son of Mary. That was because they rebelled and used to transgress. They restrained not one another from the wickedness they did. Verily evil was that they used to do!” (Al-Ma’idah 5: 78-79)
The Muslim is not merely a righteous human being who does good actions and forsakes wrong ones, while living in his own circle, paying no attention to the decrease of good actions in his world and the sharp increase of evil actions around him; the real Muslim is the righteous human being who is keen to rectify others and help them to be righteous. He is the one depicted in the following Surah of the Qur’an: “By the declining day, Lo! man is in a state of loss, Save those who believe and do good works, and exhort one another to truth and exhort one another to endurance.” (Al-`Asr 103).
And so judge (you O Muhammad SAW) between them by what Allah has revealed and follow not their vain desires, but beware of them lest they turn you (O Muhammad SAW) far away from some of that which Allah has sent down to you. And if they turn away, then know that Allah's Will is to punish them for some sins of theirs. And truly, most of men are Fasiqun (rebellious and disobedient to Allah). [TMQ” al-Maidah: 49]
Therefore, muslims must judge their lives on the Quran and Hadith of Rasulullah, and must not follow the vain desires of those (such as the secularist authors of Malay Mail Online,) who wish to delude from the obedience of Allah.

Hudud can decrease crime rates
Former Chief Justice Tun Abdul Hamid Mohamad claims that countries which
implement Hudud punishment laws are still lagging in reducing crime rates. Nd
crime rates in countries such as Pakistan, Nigeria and Sudan are still high. He
also claims that Hudud implementation in holy cities like in Makkah dan Madinah
could not be used as a yardstick as an indicator of the success of such
punishment laws.
Before that, former ambassador, Datuk Noor Farida
Ariffin made an outrageous claim that sexual criminals will flock to Kelantan,
if such punishments laws are implemented.
Claims of Tun Abdul Hamid Mohamad that the
Hudud implementation in Makkah dan Madinah cannot be used as an indicator of
such laws is indeed refutable. Madinah was the capital of the first Islamic
State established by Prophet Muhammad (SAW) in the year 623, and continued to
be the capital during the time of Khulafah ar-Rashidiin for many years fter its
establishment. Therefore Madinah, then, has been the city which organized
foreign policy, commerce and agriculture. Even now, holy cities such as Makkah
dan Madinah is full of human activities and transactions with hotels, banks and
shopping complexes, where humans perform their daily activities not only
personal worship in Masjidil Haraam and Nabawi. There are still no reports that
sexual criminals are flocking to Brunei, or Makkah dan Madinah.
The crime statistics in 2014 however refute the
claims of both individuals, Tun Abdul Hamid Mohamad and Datuk
Noor Farida Ariffin.
The
top 10 countries with the highest crime rates in the world in 2014:
1). USA
2). Canada
3). Germany
4). Poland
5). South Africa
6). Italy
7). Zambia
8). Uganda
9). Korea
10). Ethiopia
The
top 10 dangerous cities in the world in 2014:
1). London (England)
2). Distrito Central (Honduras)
3). Birmingham (England)
4). Rio de Janerio (Brazil)
5). Ciudad Juarez (Mexico)
6). Mumbai (India)
7). Cape Town (SouthAfrica)
8). Florida (USA)
9). Caracas (Venezuela)
10). Chicago (USA)
The
top 10 countries with the highest murder crime in the world in 2014:
1). USA
2). Belgium
3). South Africa
4). Italy
5). Japan
6). United Kingdom
7). France
8). Germany
9). Thailand
10). India
The
top 10 countries with the highest rape crime in the world in 2014:
1). India
2). Spain
3). Israel
4). USA
5). Sweden
6). Belgium
7). Argentina
8). Germany
9). New Zealand
10). Poland
The worse crime rates in the whole world are in
countries which DOES NOT implement Hudud, and NOT in countries which implement
Hudud. However, the effective implementation of Hudud, and all other Syariah
laws which organises human transaction such as economy, social, punishment
systems will be effective only in an Islamic State (Khilafah), and not in a liberal democracy secular
countries, where in such, the wide gap between the rich and poor, and the
economy which is still based on riba and paper money.
Hudud boleh mengurangkan kadar jenayah
Hudud boleh mengurangkan kadar jenayah
Bekas Ketua Hakim Tun Abdul Hamid Mohamad membuat kenyataan bahawa negara
yang melaksanakan hukum Hudud masih tidak dapat mengurangkan kadar jenayah. Dan
kadar jenayah di negara yang majoritinya muslim seperti Pakistan, Nigeria and
Sudan masih mempunyai kadar jenayah yang tinggi. Beliau juga melanjutkan bahawa
perlaksanaan Hudud di Makkah dan Madinah tidak boleh digunakan sebagai
kayu-ukur tentang keberhasilan hukum tersebut untuk mengurangkan kadar jenayah.
Sebelum itu, bekas duta Negara, Datuk Noor Farida
Ariffin mengatakan bahawa perlaksanaan Hudud akan menyebabkan pelaku jenayah
seksual berkerumun ke Kelantan.
Dakwaan Tun Abdul Hamid Mohamad
mengatakan perlaksanaan Hudud di Makkah dan Madinah tidak boleh digunakan
sebagai kayu-ukur adalah dakwaan yang meleset. Sebabnya Madinah pernah menjadi
ibukota Daulah Islam yang pertama yang ditubuhkan oleh Rasulullah (SAW) pada
623 Masehi dan juga ibukota Khulafah ar-Rashidiin yang berlangsung selama
puluhan tahun, maka seseungguhnya Madinah pernah menjadi kota yang menguruskan
polisi luar negara, perdagangan, sektor ekonomi dan pertanian. Pada zaman moden
ini juga, bandar seperti Makkah dan Madinah dipenuhi oleh gedung-gedung
perdagangan, bank-bank dan hotel-hotel, di mana manusia menjalankan kehidupan
biasa seperti di bandar-bandar lain, dan bukan sahaja amal ibadah di dalam
masjidil Haraam dan Nabawi. Juga belum ada lapuran penjenayah seksual
berkerumun ke Brunei, ataupun bandar Makkah dan Madinah.
Statistik kadar jenayah pada 2014 sebenarnya
menyangkal dakwaan kedua-dua individu tersebut.
10
negara yang mempunyai kadar jenayah yang tertinggi di dunia
1). USA
2). Canada
3). Germany
4). Poland
5). South Africa
6). Italy
7). Zambia
8). Uganda
9). Korea
10). Ethiopia

bandar di dunia yang paling merbahaya untuk diduduki
1). London (England)
2). Distrito Central (Honduras)
3). Birmingham (England)
4). Rio de Janerio (Brazil)
5). Ciudad Juarez (Mexico)
6). Mumbai (India)
7). Cape Town (SouthAfrica)
8). Florida (USA)
9). Caracas (Venezuela)
10). Chicago (USA)
10
negara yang mempunyai kadar kes bunuh yang tertinggi di dunia
1). USA
2). Belgium
3). South Africa
4). Italy
5). Japan
6). United Kingdom
7). France
8). Germany
9). Thailand
10). India
10
negara yang mempunyai kes rogol yang tertinggi di dunia
1). India
2). Spain
3). Israel
4). USA
5). Sweden
6). Belgium
7). Argentina
8). Germany
9). New Zealand
10). Poland
Di kesemua senarai tersebut, kadar jenayah yang
paling tinggi adalah berada di negara-negara yang TIDAK melaksanakan hukum Hudud,
dan bukannya di dalam negara yang melaksanakan hukum Hudud. Walaupun begitu, kami
berpendapat, bahawa hukum yang mengaturkan manusia di dalam kehidupan masyarakat,
seperti sistem ekonomi, sosial, hukuman termasuklah Hudud hanyalah dapat
dilaksanakan secara efektif di dalam sistem Khilafah Islam, dan bukannya di
dalam negara demokrasi liberal, di mana jurang kekayaan yang sangat tinggi dan
sistem ekonomi yang berasaskan riba dan wang kertas.
