that will, no doubt, horrify you, and I apologize if any reader is harmed
because of this."


 "During this holiday, the Jew must prepare very special pastries, the
filling of which is not only costly and rare - it cannot be found at all on
the local and international markets."


 "Unfortunately, this filling cannot be left out, or substituted with any
alternative serving the same purpose. For this holiday, the Jewish people
must obtain human blood so that their clerics can prepare the holiday
pastries. In other words, the practice cannot be carried out as required if
human blood is not spilled!!"

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] The moments when the Israeli soldiers were beaten up on Mavi Marmara

[Mohamed Fudzail]

*The deadly raid on the Gaza aid flotilla triggered a propaganda war between
Israel and pro-Palestinian activists. Surprisingly, it was Turkish newspaper
Hürriyet that published the most spectacular photos.*

On Friday, June 4, an agitated man with a bald head and full gray beard
walked into the headquarters of the Muslim aid organization IHH in Istanbul.
The 53-year-old man identified himself as Kevin Neish, a peace activist and
amateur photographer from Victoria, Canada. Four days previously he had been
on board the Turkish ship *Mavi Marmara*, he said. He had taken photos that
night when Israeli soldiers stormed the vessel. "Do you have a computer?"
Neish asked breathlessly and handed a memory card containing digital photos
to a surprised office worker.

*Exposed Arab political, military and moral bankruptcy *

By Latheef Farook

Israel’s barbaric attack on the humanitarian Gaza aid flotilla once again
demonstrated to the world the blind complicity of the United States led
Europe and exposed the political, military and moral bankruptcy of the Arab
dictators.

In the face of Zionist Jewish crimes all cherished human values, human
feelings and human kindness disappear from Western leaders who shamelessly
defend all Israeli crimes or face humiliation as it happened, to cite an
example, in the case of former US President Bill Clinton who was humiliated
by Monica Lewinsky affair.

Palestinians enjoying a water pipe while looking out into the Mediterranean
Sea. The waters off the Gaza Strip could get busy this summer.

By Charles Hawley

A group of German Jews has stepped up efforts to send a humanitarian mission
to the Gaza Strip in defiance of the Israeli sea blockade. Increasingly, it
looks as though the group will have plenty of competition. The waters off
Gaza promise to be busy this summer.

For years, the waters just off the coast of the Gaza Strip have been
relatively quiet. Ever since Israel imposed an air, land and sea blockade on
the region following the ascent of Hamas to power in 2007, fewer and fewer
visitors have risked the trip. Even the local fishing industry has suffered
mightily.

Foundations of the air force

The small Israeli team in Singapore was augmented by professional military
advisers for the various corps. The chief armored corps officer, Major
General Avraham Adan, arrived to give advice on procuring armored vehicles.
In 1968, Adam Tzivoni, a retired colonel who had been head of the planning
and weapons branch in the air force, was appointed adviser to the Singapore
Armed Forces in regard to the creation of an air force.

"As compensation for the hasty departure of the British army, the British
government gave Singapore a grant of 50 million pounds to acquire
British-made aerial systems: planes, helicopters and surface-to-air
missiles," Tzivoni relates. "The British didn't like me at all. My first
task was to approve the deals. It turned out that the English tried to sell
Singapore junk. Apart from a deal for Hunters, I vetoed all the deals."

When the Hamburg resident Nader El Sakka, 58, tried to board the *Challenger

four-page document pledging that he would not engage in violence and that he
possessed no weapons. He also had to provide the name and telephone number
of a family member in case of an emergency. If he didn't sign, he was told,
he wouldn't be allowed on board the Gaza-bound convoy.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Mindanao - Shattered Lives

[Mohamed Fudzail]

Mindanao has been annexed to Philippine since 1948. Historically, Mindanao
was never part of so-called Philippine. With aggression (similar to Israel
regime) by Manila regime, the local Mindanao people is now minority and the
so-called Autonomous Region of *Muslim Mindanao* (ARMM) only covering not
more 30% of the whole Mindanao island.

Fr. Roberto C. Layson, a P*arish Priest of Pikit, North Cotabato during the
Interreligious Dialogue Conference in Bali, Indonesia said *“in Mindanao,
when you ask a Muslim boy what he wants to become when he grows up, he tells
you that he wants to become a rebel to fight the military. When you ask a
Christian boy what he wants to become when he grows up, he tells you that he
wants to become a soldier to fight the rebels”.





 PHILIPPINES: SHATTERED LIVES BEYOND THE 2008-2009 MINDANAO ARMED CONFLICT

 *“We inherited an age-old conflict in Mindanao, exacerbated by a
politically popular but near-sighted policy of massive retaliation. This
only provoked the other side to continue the war.”*

 - President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo during her State of the Nation Address,
27 July 2009

  AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL INDEX: ASA 35/006/2009

  *REPORT SUMMARY*

  Yet another round of fighting between the Philippine government forces and
the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) has ended on 29 July 2009. The
2008-2009 hostilities, which displaced more than 750,000 persons in total
and led to numerous human rights abuses, officially ended with an agreement
to resume peace negotiations. One year after renewed violence between
government security forces and armed groups, Mindanao is finally beginning
to see a possible end to the unrest and uncertainty— and perhaps even an end
to the 40-year armed conflict.

Terutama kalau aku belum nyanyuk untuk bercerita sebuah biografi kepada
anak-anak dan cucu-cucu. Kalau juga aku masih bernafas dan tidak dihantar ke
rumah kebajikan orang-orang tua.

Selagi serebrum, serebellum dan batang otak berfungsi untuk menyimpan jutaan
memori, tidak akan aku lupakan satu hari yang mengubah perspektif mengenai
apa yang dikatakan ‘fear’ atau ketakutan. Mengubah tanggapan mengenai
faktor-faktor luaran yang selama ini ditakuti kerana ia tidak diketahui.
Banyak perkara yang menakutkan. Bermula dari kegelapan. Hantu. Ular-ular.
Ketinggian. Kegagalan. Mati. Masa depan.

Ah! Juga cinta. Menakutkan kalau dalam prasangka dan pernah kegagalan. Aku
mahu berdepan dengan ketakutan yang selalu menyebabkan aku mengundur. Tidak
mengambil kesempatan dan membiarkan peluang berlalu begitu sahaha. Melihat
hidup dari satu pandangan sehala. Jalan yang selamat, sudah terbiasa dan
diketahui tidak akan menggagalkan. Mahu membuat pelbagai advencer, tetapi
sekadar advencer biasa-biasa sahaja. Bukan sesuatu yang memberi kejutan,
yang membuatkan tunggang terbalik dan boleh menambahkan komplikasi.

Mesti berfikir secara lateral. Di luar lingkaran takutkan risiko. Takut
tanpa justifikasi dan analisis kualitatif.

Aku memerlukan advencer penuh adrenalin, sebuah advencer luar biasa dalam
advencer biasa-biasa. Menyemarak satu eksplorasi yang bermula dari satu
idea. Idea yang juga bermula dengan kelucuan. Sangkaan awal, tidak mungkin
sekali ianya menjadi realiti. Idea bodoh dan membodohkan.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] 7 ways to keep your memory sharp at any age

[Mohamed Fudzail]

As we grow older, we all start to notice some changes in our ability to
remember things.

Maybe you’ve gone into the kitchen and can’t remember why, or can’t recall a
familiar name during a conversation. You may even miss an appointment
because it slipped your mind. Memory lapses can occur at any age, but we
tend to get more upset by them as we get older because we fear they’re a
sign of dementia, or loss of intellectual function. The fact is, significant
memory loss in older people isn’t a normal part of aging—but is due to
organic disorders, brain injury, or neurological illness, with Alzheimer’s
being among the most feared.

Good afternoon all Honourable Members of the House, ladies and gentlemen.

First of all, I would like to record our most sincere gratitude having been
given this honour of presenting this memorandum before this esteemed House.
Today, marks a moment of honour for the people of Sabah, the former North
Borneo, for having been accorded this rare opportunity to present a
Memorandum a matter of grave significance, a matter which affect our fate as
the people of the Federation of Malaysia. We see this as a historical event,
a moment granted by God’s grace, in which we can communicate under this
honourable roof, to reminisce a milestone of history half a century ago
which was followed by sad events that in too many instances happened with
numerous misgivings.

For decades now, we the people of Sabah, have been haunted by ghosts of
history dating back to August 31, 1963, the day we gained independence from
Great Britain. Malaysia was conceptualised and constituted with the best of
promises, endearing in us hopes and dreams for a greater future. It is with
sadness that I stand here to witness that what had transpired since
September 16, 1963 had been a series of events that had led us to the
present situation in which we can justly proclaim to be a situation of
shattered hopes and broken dreams!

of tourists who visit Dubai surpasses those who visit the Great Pyramids of
Egypt, and the Tunisian and Lebanese beach resorts combined. In fact the
number of tourists who visit Dubai stands at five times the number of
pilgrims who visit Mecca to perform the hajj.

Dubai is a city visited by 15 million people a year, with foreigners
constituting 90 percent of its residents, and therefore it is only natural
that security would be a chief concern. Mahmoud al-Mabhouh, who was
assassinated in the Al Bustan Rotana Hotel and who was a leading Hamas
figure working undercover, entered Dubai using a forged passport. He was
trailed by 11 professional who were members of an Israeli commando team.
They entered Dubai Airport at a corresponding time using forged passports.

These nine men are the Standing Committee of the Communist Party of China.
They control the value of China's currency.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Unforgettable Love Story

[Mohamed Fudzail]

She was one of the noblest women of her time, coming from a very prominent
family. She was also quite beautiful and the holder of a considerable amount
of wealth, for she successfully ran her own business. To marry her would
have been a great feat for any man, and indeed, quite a few of the most
prominent and wealthy men in society had asked for her hand. Yet, she
rejected them all; already being a widow, she had lost the desire to marry
again.

Until he came into her life. He was young man of 25, and although he was
also of a noble family, he was an orphan and was not a man of many means. He
had made a meager living tending sheep in the hills surrounding the city.
Yet, he had an impeccable moral character, and he was widely known as one of
the most honest men around. That is what attracted her to him: she was
looking for someone honest who could conduct business for her, as she – a
woman in a fiercely patriarchal society – could not do it herself. So, he
started working for her.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Doubling traffic fines is not usury: Scholar

[Mohamed Fudzail]

In the ongoing debate taking place on the issue, a leading scholar argues
that doubling traffic fines is not considered usury.

Dr. Saleh Al-Sadlan, Professor of Islamic Jurisprudence “Fiqh” in the
Postgraduate Studies Department at Imam Muhammad Islamic University in
Riyadh, said the doubling of traffic fines does not fall under the
jurisdiction of usury in Islamic law.

This view supports an edict made by Dr. Abdul Mohsen Al-Obikan, the adviser
at the Royal Court.

However, it is in disagreement with a ruling made by the Kingdom’s Grand
Mufti Sheikh Abdul Aziz Aal Al-Sheikh who ruled that the doubling of fines
for traffic violations is usury.

Assalaamo Alaikum, that is, peace be with you!

Worshipful Master, distinguished brethren and brethren: I am pleased to
submit my dissertation with some trepidation, as I feel unequal to doing
justice to this complex subject in a space of 20 odd minutes. But, I was
persuaded to take up the challenge by the encouragement and assistance of W
Bros Shiva Banerjee and Ronald Ng, whom I could not disappoint.

Islam has been much in the limelight these days. I have been diligent in
attending to my duties as both, a mason and a Muslim and have come to
realise that Islam and masonry are indeed compatible. Freemasonry may even
be considered complementary to Islam as its principles only go to reinforce
a Muslim brother�s own faith; contrary to the misconceptions widely held
among my Muslim brethren from various sects. The distrust perhaps arises
from the fact that masonic symbols are derived from segments of the Old
Testament such as the Temple of King Solomon, which gives the uninstructed
world the erroneous impression that masons are Zionists. It is serious
enough for masonry to have been brought into question in Malaysia in the
late 70s. Yet, the Old Testament is not excluded from the beliefs of Islam.
On the contrary, King Solomon is considered to have been a follower of Islam
*1* ! More of this later � Anyway, masons are obligated to submit to the
laws of the VSL, which, in the case of the Muslim brethren in the Craft, is
the Holy Quran, if they so desire.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Muslim youngsters and Music Addiction

[Mohamed Fudzail]

 We�ve all seen them: youngsters with i-pods and headphones, eyes closed,
humming in time to the beat in their mind; blasting music from cars on the
streets or from the confines of their rooms, lost in a world of their own.
It�s scary to see the number of Muslim youngsters who are either already
addicted to music, or on their way to becoming hopeless junkies who cannot
pass even a few hours in relative silence.

If you think this is hyperbole, take a minute to talk to your friendly
neighborhood music �enthusiast� and watch them confess that music is their
�buzz�, their �high�, or even their �life.� Interestingly, most 
parents who
would be alarmed if their offspring were involved in substance abuse, see no
harm in indulging and actively feeding a music addiction, viewing it as a
�harmless phase� that they will �automatically outgrow.�

How �harmless� is popular music? How do we identify a music addiction? And
most importantly, how does one break the habit if they�re hooked?

Summary
When AirAsia X was first dreamt up, the vision of a long haul low cost
travel was cheered � so why has the dream now evaporated?
Analysis
AirAsia X had initially identified using Dubai International Airport as the
regional �hub-of-choice� to deploy its *ridiculously over-crowded* Airbus
A330-300s on flights to Europe and beyond.
 Quickly realising that Emirates would *absolutely annihilate* this fanciful
child-like fantasy, AirAsia X switched attention to the neighbouring emirate
of Abu Dhabi � again, hoping it�d be able to set up a hub to poach business
into Europe and Africa.
And now, AirAsia X has �ruled out� setting up a hub there.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Malaysia - Looking to the Middle East

[Mohamed Fudzail]

Besides business deals, Najib�s trip to the Middle East also gave him the
opportunity to reflect on Malaysia�s situation in terms of race relations
and human capital development.

As a good example of his 1Malaysia concept, Najib pointed to the 6,000
Malaysians in the UAE. �Malaysians of every race and religion are
represented here and all of them have done well in giving Malaysia a good
name,� he said.
Looking to the Middle East By LEONG SHEN-LI

PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak�s recent tour of
two countries in the Middle East reinforces the importance of the region to
Malaysia in terms of business as well as cultural, spiritual and even
personal bonds.
 Much interest: Najib looking at an illustration of the Burj Khalifah in
Dubai recently. � Bernama

Saudi Arabia and especially the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have been
targeted by Malaysia as major sources of investments and both countries have
already put significant amounts of money here. At the same time, many
Malaysian companies have made inroads into the two countries, especially in
the UAE where they are involved in construction projects.

Yet, in line with Najib�s constant reminders of the dangers of businesses
resting on their laurels, there is no letting up in the push to attract more
business to Malaysia and to open up further avenues for Malaysian companies
in the region.

Najib�s three days in Abu Dhabi, the largest of the seven emirates in the
UAE, and side trip to Dubai gave him the opportunity to savour the successes

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Islamic Banking and Profit Fairness

[Mohamed Fudzail]

Islamic finance is a moral financial model based on divine principles, the
most important of which is justice. There are many Quranic verses and
Hadiths that deal with this, such as: "We sent aforetime our messengers with
Clear Signs and sent down with them the Book and the Balance (of Right and
Wrong), that men may stand forth in justice," [Surat al Hadid; Verse 25].
There is also: "And the Firmament has He raised high, and He has set up the
Balance (of Justice)" [Surat al Rahman; Verse 7]. God Almighty also said,
"Allah commands justice," [Surat al Nahl; Verse 90]. In a Hadith Qudsi the
Prophet [pbuh] narrated the word of God, saying "My servants, I have
forbidden injustice for myself and I have made injustice forbidden to you.
Do not be unjust to one another." Renowned Islamic scholar al-Izz Ibn
Abdul-Salam said that Verse 25 of Surat al Hadid represents the essence of
Islam.

Nabataean rock-cut tombs at Madain Saleh, near Al Ula, are Saudi Arabia’s
equivalent of Petra in Jordan, but receive only a trickle of visitors. Amar
Grover for The National

When I announced a visit to Saudi Arabia, my friends’ reactions ranged from
surprise to consternation. Why, they wondered, and what was there? Others
were less receptive. The consensus was that visiting would be an academic
exercise at best and, for western women wrapped in the obligatory abayas, a
chore. The Saudi enigma seemed couched in severe and not particularly
positive terms even, or perhaps particularly, by those who had never
visited.

Yet for people who are curious about a place that seems at once familiar (we
can all conjure a mental picture, and most can place it on a map) and yet
enigmatic (just what is there?) – or simply seek a destination few people
have visited – Saudi Arabia is just the ticket.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Islam mempengaruhi kehidupan masyarakat Russia

[Mohamed Fudzail]

*ISLAM di Russia bukan lagi dianggap ganjil dan sukar diamalkan secara
terang-terangan, malah jumlah yang menganut agama Islam semakin bertambah.*

 *Kebangkitan kerohanian secara meluas petanda Moscow jadi wilayah jihad
tanpa pertumpahan darah*

PENGERTIAN Islam Russia ialah sesuatu yang susah dibayangkan atau ungkapan
yang tidak mencerminkan keadaan nyata. Setengah abad yang lalu ungkapan
'Muslimin Russia' amat ganjil. Islam dianggap agama orang berbangsa Tatar
saja.

Penasihat wakil Presiden Russia di kawasan persekutuan Volga, Sergey
Gradirovsky dalam beberapa wawancara terus terang menyatakan bahawa bumi
Russia mempunyai sektor Islam sendiri dan sektor itu akan bertambah dan
meluas.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Dagestani pilgrims’ journey of faith real test of patience

MAKKAH: Haj 2009 may have come and gone, but for Abdul Fattah Dove, a
30-year-old pilgrim from the Republic of Dagestan in the Russian Federation,
this journey will remain in his memory for the rest of his life.

Dove said his journey to Makkah took him a month because his car was old and
unreliable. He said it took him years to save up the money for the most
affordable Haj visa, the one that doesn’t come with transportation, room and
board.

“I refused to marry so as not to lose anything of the amount of money I had
collected,” he said.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Swiss Controversy : Misunderstanding the minaret

[Mohamed Fudzail]

THE controversy over the Swiss vote against the construction of new minarets
seems to emphasize political and constitutional issues, notably the
restructuring of many right-wing parties around the issue of a
“European-Christian” identity standing against an “Islamization of Europe”
and the possible conflict between the democratic right to make decisions by
voting and the constitutional principle of freedom of faith. Yet the main
argument suggested to support the ban position is rarely discussed.

The basic reasoning of the ban position is presented in a flyer prepared by
the “Federal Popular Initiative Against Minarets”, which is initiated by a
provincial “Egerkinger Kommittee”, and it focuses on the significance of the
minaret. The key idea lays in the following assertion: “The minaret is an
expression of willingness to have politico-religious power.” The two-page
flyer suggests that this is the case because the minaret “has nothing to do
with faith,” and also because of what Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip
Erdogan said in 1997 when he compared, playing with the words of a 1912
Ottoman poem, the minarets to “the bayonets” in an Islamist march to power.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Zunar as Top Malaysia's Political Cartoonist

[Mohamed Fudzail]

CARTOONING in Malaysia started back in 1940s. Cartoonist like Peng started
to draw editorial cartoons for local newspapers. In the 60’s, Lat, Mishar,
Rejabhad and Nan started the new era in cartooning and were considered as
the pioneers in the Malaysian cartoon landscape.

But only in the late 70’s did the cartoon industry in Malaysia started to
blossom when a humor magazine, Gila-Gila, a local version of the ‘Mad
Magazine’, was formed in 1978. That created a space for great cartoonists
like Jaafar Taib, Zainal Buang Hussien, Tazidi, Don, Kerengge, Ujang, Reggie
Lee, Fatah, Rossem, CW Kee, to name a few.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Thailand, Bahrain better than Malaysia for expats to live

[Mohamed Fudzail]

Looking to work overseas? Head to Canada, Australia or Thailand, according
to an annual global survey which found recession-hit Britain was one of the
worst locations to live for expatriates.

The second annual Expat Experience survey, commissioned by HSBC Bank
International, revealed that expats in Canada have the best quality of life
and found it among the easiest places in the world to integrate with the
local population.

Australia and Thailand also came in the top three in the survey of 3,146
people working in 30 different industries and 50 countries, even though
Thailand was one of the countries worst-hit by the recession for expats.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Singapore as the world’s most efficiently managed company

[Mohamed Fudzail]

Like scores of journalists, I attentively listened as Singapore Prime
Minister Lee Hsien Loong delivering his closing remarks, and for the last
time answering journalists’ questions. It was the conclusion of 17th APEC
Economies Leaders’ Meeting in Singapore, on November 15, and Prime Minister
Lee was clearly tired, although unruffled.

Lee is an impressive man. He has a commanding presence and is very
articulate, despite his soft poise and humble demeanor. He speaks with the
confidence of a leader of a great nation, not an island city-state, the
smallest nation in Southeast Asia.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Iskandar Malaysia - Please do not fail us!

[Mohamed Fudzail]

I applaud such an initiative especially we need a new growth centre after
the failures of MSC, PKFZ, Cyberjaya, to name a few and other projects under
the 'Satu lagi projek kerajaan Barisan Nasional' which had wasted billions
of our money and fund for the future generations. Those failures are not in
the annual Auditor General's report on the wastage and perhaps our MPs can
voice our concerns in the parliament.

I do not how much has been spent to date in getting IM on the ground. How
much more to be spent to move and complete the project. The planners must
have adequate study on the cost of such project and the return of investment
for the benefits of people (not only those Umno cronies who may have been
the biggest benefactors).

Being personally involved with several mammoth projects in Dubai, from the
initial planning to execution and delivery, I would say, those people who
had been chosen to lead and manage IM must be capable, experienced and
forward thinking in executing the plan. I am very much impressed with IM and
have a very high regards as well as hopes.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] Dumbest Thieves in the UAE

[Mohamed Fudzail]

Brief's case

When panties hung out to dry started to mysteriously disappear from villas
in mid- 2007, it didn't take long for residents of Ras Al Khaimah's Al
Nakheel area to realise that a thief with a lingerie fetish was on the
loose. However, given the embarrassing nature of the theft, nobody reported
the matter. Finally, an angry Egyptian woman who had seven briefs stolen in
almost as many days decided enough was enough and alerted the authorities. A
trap was set with CID sleuths putting up fancy women's underwear in houses
around the vicinity as bait. The cops waited all night and just when they
were about to call it a day, they saw a man walking around uncomfortably. It
was a dead giveaway. When the 29-year-old was searched, the police found him
wearing five sets of panties. Another five bags full of stolen lingerie were
recovered from his closet.

 *Catatan awal menyatakan Sultan Mansur Shah berhasrat ke Tanah Suci tetapi

IBADAT haji di negara ini dipercayai bermula sejak kedatangan Islam ke
gugusan Kepulauan Melayu pada abad ke 13. Namun, catatan sejarah yang jelas
mengenai perkembangan haji di negara ini sukar diperoleh secara terperinci
kerana tidak banyak maklumat mengenainya.

Dipercayai orang Melayu yang berkemampuan dan terbabit dalam aktiviti
pelayaran ialah kelompok terawal menunaikan haji, namun tiada catatan atau
apa-apa penunjuk aras mengenainya ditemui.

Help Palestine [hidayahnet] US's top arms buyers in 2009

[Mohamed Fudzail]

It is also not unusual to know that the top buyers in fiscal 2009 were the
UAE ($7.9bn), Afghanistan ($5.4bn) and Saudi Arabia ($3.3bn), followed by
Taiwan ($3.2bn), Egypt ($2.1bn), Iraq ($1.6bn), NATO ($924.5m), Australia
($818.7m) and South Korea ($716.6m).

With the current situation (beside other problems faced by earthlings, of
course, for peace, arms demand is booming, fed in part by regional tensions
fanned by nuclear and ballistic missile programs in Iran and North Korea.

In case you have not noticed, 5 muslim nations are amongst the top buyers
with accumulated purchase of $20.3 billion.
