Segala puji bagi Allah Tuhan Pemelihara Seluruh Alam, Salawat dan Salam semoga tetap dilimpahkan kepada sebaik-baik Nabi Rasul Muhammad SAW dan seluruh pengikutnya sampai hari pembalasan.

Selanjutnya, kalau anda belum pernah melihat seseorang, atau kelompok/jama’ah dari dekat, dengan bersahabat atau dengan partisipasi, anda tidak dapat menghukuminya dengan pandangan yang benar. Sebab sudab jelas bahwa apa saja yang anda dengar dari orang-orang itu belum tentu benar dan tepat. Maka dari itu Allah memerintahkan kita:

“Apabila seseorang fasiq datang membawa berita kepadamu, maka selidikilah …“

Rasulullah bersabda:“Cukuplah seseorang dikatakan pembohong, bila ia memberitakan segala yang ia dengar”.

Soalnya, apakah ada sesiapa dari kalangan kerajaan Malaysia yang berani melanggar "Pakatan Kuasa Besar Barat"? - AL FAEDAH

25/11/2014 LAPORAN HELME HANAFI [AD] - Perhimpunan Agung UMNO (PAU2014) diminta membahas dan meluluskan resolusi mendesak supaya Malaysia diberikan hak sebagai anggota Pasukan Siasatan Bersama (JIT) nahas udara MH17.

Dr Chandra Muzaffar mengemukakan cadangan tersebut dalam satu tulisannya yang disiarkan oleh laman web terkemuka GlobalResearch.

Dr Chandra berharap Perhimpunan Agung UMNO - mesyuarat tahunan parti yang merupakan tulang belakang kepada kerajaan - yang akan berlangsung dari 25-29 November,  membahaskan dan menerima pakai resolusi yang menyokong permintaan supaya Malaysia menjadi anggota JIT.

MH17: Why is Malaysia Not Part of the Joint Investigation Team? (Berserta Terjemahan Bahasa)

By Chandra Muzaffar (Berserta Terjemahan Bahasa Malaysia)

Why is Malaysia not in the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) probing the MH 17 crash of July 17 2014?

Aren’t there guidelines that spell out which parties should constitute the probe team in the event of a disaster of the magnitude of MH 17? As the owner of MH 17 it is logical and sensible that Malaysia is part of the probe. Malaysia has more rights to be in the JIT than some of its present members. One can understand why Ukraine is in the team since that is where the plane was shot from the sky. We can understand the Netherlands’ membership of the JIT since the flight originated from Amsterdam. But why is Belgium in the JIT?

5. HADITS 12 Khalifah/Amir.
6. HADITS Asoib Timur.
 


Maulana Yusof rahmatullahu 'alaihi  – 73 firqah: Ada orang bertanya pada Maulana Yusof, dizaman ini semua gerakan Jemaah dan kumpulan2 org Islam menyatakan bahawa merekalah golongan ASWJ yg selamat dan paling benar dari 73 golongan (rujuk hadis), maka mengikut pendapat Maulana, firqah manakah yg paling tepat/betul dan berjaya?

Jawab Maulana Yusuf rahmatullahu 'alaihi: Firqah tersebut adalah golongan yg berusaha untuk menyatukan baki 72 golongan yg lainnya. 

Telah mengeluarkan Thabarani dalam Al Ausat, dari Ibnu Umar bahwa Nabi SAW telah mengambil tangan Ali dan bersabda (mafhumnya): “Akan keluar dari sulbi ini pemuda (Ali) yang memenuhi dunia dengan keadilan (Imam Mahdi).

Bilamana kamu melihat yang demikian itu, maka wajib kamu mencari Putera dari Bani Tamim, dia datang dari sebelah Timur dan dia adalah pemegang panji-panji Al Mahdi”.
(Dari kitab Al Hawi lil Fatawa oleh Imam Sayuti). 

Darihal Hadits Asoib Timur menyerahkan kuasa pada Imam tanpa sebutan Pemuda Bani Tamim dari kitab Sunan Ibnu Majah: 

Telah menceritakan kepada kami Harmalah bin Yahya Al Mishri dan Ibrahim bin Sa'id Al Jauhari keduanya berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami Abu Shalih Abdul Ghafar bin Daud Al Harrani telah menceritakan kepada kami Ibnu Lahi'ah dari Abu Zur'ah Amru bin Jabir Al Hadhrami dari Abdullah bin Al Harits bin Jaz`I Az Zabidi dia berkata, "Rasulullah sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda:
 

"Sekelompok manusia datang dari arah timur lalu menyerahkan kekuasaannya kepada Al Mahdi."

حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْمِصْرِيُّ وَإِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو صَالِحٍ عَبْدُ الْغَفَّارِ بْنُ دَاوُدَ الْحَرَّانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَابِرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنَ جَزْءٍ الزَّبِيدِيِّ قَالَ

There are only two suspects in the shoot-down of the MH-17 Malaysian airliner over Ukraine on July 17th: the separatist rebels, whom the Ukrainian Government charge had shot it down mistaking it for one of the Ukrainian Air Force bombers that routinely drop bombs onto the separatists and their families and indiscriminately onto everyone else in that region; or otherwise the Ukrainian Air Force itself, as a means for President Obama to be able to win increased international sanctions against Russia for Russia’s support of those blamed rebels.

November 8, 2014 Rakesh Krishnan Simha

"The Russian President is using asymmetrical strategies to stop – and ultimately bring down – the enemies of the Russian state."

There are 7.2 billion people in this world but the United States fears only one man – Vladimir Putin. That’s because on virtually every front of the new Cold War, the Russian President is walloping the collective challenge of the West. Fear can make you do strange things. Forbes magazine has named Putin as the most powerful person on the planet for the second year running.

It is said about the Russians that they take a long time to saddle their horses but they ride awfully fast. After slowly nursing the collapsed Russian economy back to health, Putin is now going for broke. In Syria, Crimea and Ukraine, the West has melted away at his approach and has faced humiliating setbacks. In the field of energy, it will be Russian – not western – pipelines that will dominate the Eurasian landmass.

But instead of scorekeeping, a more instructive exercise would be to try and understand how Putin has managed to keep Russia ahead in the game. 

He knows their DNA

First, the Boeing came under gun fire and then the cockpit was hit by an air-to-air missile, its right engine and the right wing were hit by a heat-seeking missile.
MOSCOW, November 14. /TASS/. Russia’s television Channel One said on Friday it had a photo presumably made by a foreign spy satellite in the last seconds of Malaysia’s MH17 flight over Ukraine.
 Channel One showed Ivan Andriyevsky, the first vice president of the Russian Union of Engineers, demonstrating a photo sent by a George Beatle, who had introduced himself as an air traffic controller with a 20-year working record.

According to Beatle, the Malaysian Boeing was shot down by a fighter jet that followed it. First, the Boeing came under gun fire and then the cockpit was hit by an air-to-air missile, its right engine and the right wing were hit by a heat-seeking missile.

November 07, 2014

RT, one of my favorite news sources, has fallen for a fake story put out by the Pentagon to support the fantasy story that a SEAL team killed Osama bin Laden, who died a second time in Abbottabad, Pakistan, a decade after his first death from illness and disease.  http://rt.com/usa/202895-navy-seal-shot-binladen/ 

This fake story together with the fake movie and the fake book by an alleged SEAL team member is the way the fake story of bin Laden’s murder is perpetrated. Bin Laden’s alleged demise at the hands of a SEAL team was a propaganda orchestration, the purpose of which was to give Obama a hero’s laurels and deep six Democratic talk of challenging his nomination for a second term.

Evidence Is Now Conclusive: Two Ukrainian Government Fighter-Jets Shot Down Malaysian Airlines MH17. It was Not a ‘Buk’ Surface to Air Missile

By Eric Zuesse
November 05, 2014


This important article was first published in August 2014.  Its assessment is broadly correct.

We’ll go considerably farther than has yet been revealed by the professional intelligence community, to provide the actual evidence that conclusively shows that (and how) the Ukrainian Government shot down the Malaysian airliner, MH-17, on July 17th.

The latest report from the intelligence community was headlined on August 3rd by Robert Parry, “Flight 17 Shoot-Down Scenario Shifts,” and he revealed there that,

“Contrary to the Obama administration’s public claims blaming eastern Ukrainian rebels and Russia for the shoot-down of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, some U.S. intelligence analysts have concluded that the rebels and Russia were likely not at fault and that it appears Ukrainian government forces were to blame, according to a source briefed on these findings. This judgment — at odds with what President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry have expressed publicly — is based largely on the absence of U.S. government evidence that Russia supplied the rebels with a Buk anti-aircraft missile system that would be needed to hit a civilian jetliner flying at 33,000 feet, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity.”

It’s actually based on lots more than that; it’s based not on an absence of evidence, but on positive proof that the Ukrainian Government shot the plane down, and even proving how it was done. You will see this proof, right here, laid out in detail, for the first time.

Empire or Republic: Imperial Wars, Scaremongering and the Ebola Epidemic
By Prof James Petras


Washington escalates its military interventions abroad, launching simultaneous air and ground attacks in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan; multiplying drone attacks in Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia; training, arming and financing proxy mercenaries in Jordan, the Gulf States and Iraq; and dispatching National Guard battalions to West Africa, ostensibly to combat the Ebola epidemic, though they lack the most elementary public health capabilities.  All in all the US spent $3.5 trillion for military invasions over 6 years.

SIS PERTUBUHAN SESAT YANG HALAL DI MALAYSIA
5 Januari 2011 

Sisters In Islam (SIS) ditubuhkan pada tahun 1990, apabila Dr Amina Wadud dan sekumpulan wanita yang sealiran dengannya yang merasakan wanita Islam tidak mendapat keadilan dari segi hukum Islam, bersepakat untuk menubuhkan sebuah NGO bagi memperjuangkan hak yang didakwa mereka.

Zainah Anwar menjadi Pengasas dan ketua SIS. Tujuan menubuhkan SIS diterangkan oleh Zainah:

"We are fighting for justice, (for) an Islam that is just, an Islam that upholds the principles of justice, equality, freedom and dignity of the human being, be it man or woman. But certainly, given the experience that we've gone through, our focus is on the rights of Muslim women." (Ibid: 11).

31 Oktober 2014 - Hari ini, badan bukan kerajaan (NGO) Sisters In Islam memfailkan semakan kehakiman terhadap keputusan fatwa Selangor mengharamkan pertubuhan itu kerana dianggap sesat.

Menurut laporan The Malaysian Insider, pertubuhan yang lebih dikenali sebagai SIS, menamakan tiga responden iaitu Jawatankuasa Fatwa Negeri Selangor, Majlis Agama Islam Selangor (MAIS) dan kerajaan Selangor.

Semakan tersebut difailkan pada jam 10.30 pagi tadi dan dibuat melalui Tetuan Azzat dan Izzat. Dalam permohonnnya, SIS mahu membatalkan pengisytiharan haram itu.

Pertubuhan itu juga memohon supaya ia diiktiraf sebagai badan yang dijamin mengikut Akta Syarikat 1965 dan tidak terikat dengan fakta itu.

Menurut Pengarah Eksekutif ISIS, Ratna Othman, SIS juga memohon mahkamah mengiktiraf NGO itu terjamin kedudukannya di bawah perlembagaan.

by Simon Black

Earlier this week some of the biggest financial news of the year made huge waves all over Asia. Yet in the Western press, this hugely important information has barely even been mentioned. While this is ignored in the US so far, it’s front page news in Asia. So what’s the news? The Chinese government announced that the renminbi will become directly convertible with the Singapore dollar… effective immediately.

Singapore and China to start direct currency trading

Agreement to strengthen financial cooperation between China and Singapore was reached at the 11th Joint Council for Bilateral Cooperati... thumbnail 1 summary

Agreement to strengthen financial cooperation between China and Singapore was reached at the 11th Joint Council for Bilateral Cooperation in Suzhou, co-chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean and Chinese Vice Premier Zhang Gaoli.

BEIJING: China will allow direct trading between its currency and the Singapore dollar from Tuesday (Oct 28), making it easier for companies here to do business with their Chinese counterparts.

The Sing dollar will be added to the China Foreign Exchange Trade System (CFETS) platform, which currently offers transactions between the yuan and 10 foreign currencies. The announcement came on Monday (Oct 27), after an agreement at the Joint Council for Bilateral Cooperation (JCBC) in Suzhou, co-chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean and Chinese Vice Premier Zhang Gaoli.

Previously, companies that wanted to convert a large amount of Sing dollars to renminbi (RMB) or vice versa had to do so via an intermediate currency such as the US dollar.

"This will lower foreign exchange transaction costs and encourage greater use of the two currencies in cross-border trade and investments," the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) said in a news release on Monday.

DPM Teo called this is a "major and significant" development which will reduce the cost of doing business and make it more convenient.

Last year, China was Singapore's biggest trading partner, while the city-state was China's top foreign investor. Mr Teo also noted that Singapore is a major RMB hub for the internationalisation of the Chinese currency.

"I still remember my first visit to China 30 years ago, the currency was not even unified then. We had foreign exchange certificates, and you know, it was just not tradeable at all. And today we have direct trade between the renminbi and the Sing dollar, and that's quite a major and a significant development," DPM Teo said.

"Berfikir tanpa kotak"

Ar Ra'isul Mutakallim, Tabligh Ki Zabaan (Lidah Tabligh) Hadrat Maulana Umar Palanpuri Rahmatullahu 'alaihi berkata: "Orang yang kuat adalah orang yang sanggup bertahan dalam arus kerosakan. Orang yang lebih kuat adalah orang yang sanggup melawan arus kerosakan. Namun orang yang paling kuat adalah orang yang sanggup merubah arah arus kerosakan hingga menjadi akannya arus kebaikan.”

“Dajjal bersama tenteranya mempunyai kekuatan yang amat istimewa dan amat tersusun. Begitu juga Yakjuj dan Makjuj membuat huru-hara di seluruh dunia. Kehebatan mereka tiada siapa yang dapat melawan dan orang beriman berundur dengan hanya makan zikir dan tasbih."

"Allah zahirkan kudratnya hanya dengan labah-labah yang kecil dijadikan asbab untuk menggigit tengkuk-tengkuk mereka hingga mati. Mayat mereka begitu busuk diseluruh dunia. Orang beriman tidak tahan terus berdoa pada Allah. Allah ta'ala hantarkan hujan dan banjir menghanyutkan mereka ke laut. Inilah yang akan berlaku di akhir zaman nanti."

"Amalan dakwah memisahkan hak dan batil seperti air menghanyutkan sampah dari emas dan logam-logam yang lain. Namun pekerja² agama jika wujud cinta dunia dalam hati mereka seperti emas dan disaluti logam-logam lain, maka banyak masalah yang akan timbul.”
