Tok Guru Nik Aziz in Conversation...[ In 'French' ]

Pulai Melaka is around 12 kilometres away from Kota Bharu town centre. Once a sleepy hallow some 50 years back more well known due to it's proximity to Kedai Lalat, a nearby kampong notorious for 'hitmen' and 'gedebes' ready for hire. Now if you mention Pulau Melaka to anyone in KB, the name conjures a'gedebe' of a different kind: Tok Guru Nik Abdul Aziz or in short TGNA, an ulama' par excellence, a man who practises what he preached and preaches what he practised. TGNA, a model of simplicity,frugal living, accountability and an excellent example of a God-fearing man.

I was in Gunong, Bachok last weekend overseeing final preparation by my 'boys' from the TMKN Endurance equesrian team in our bid to yet again win big at the now International Sultan's Cup, an annual do in Teganun. We had already beaten the Agong's team thoroughly,three times over consecutively, and looking forward to trouncing them again fair and square for the fourth time, come what may, in Teganun on their very own turf.In whatever I do in the endurance sports,I go for the 'jugular' and put aside reverence and protocol. In between training session a long time friend of mine, Deng, invited me to drop in for Zohor prayer at TGNA's surau." If we are in luck we could even catch a glimpse of the old man ", Deng said.

I jumped right away at that kind of opportunity as I know this could be a one time chance to meet the Tok Guru as I was told by my medical colleague, Dr Razali Omar, the 'electrcian- plumber', of IJN [ my student anyway ] who looks after him ,that the old man is 'quite frail'....A 'weak' heart with an implantable defibrillator.We doctors do not need euphemism: TGNA is in frail health, fullstop.

Saddled by recent problems of ongoing imbroglio within the palace, broad and far-reaching division within his party on the issue of 'to be or not to be' with respect to Amenu and Pakatan, and more so recently, trouble within Perbadanan Mentri Besar involving his own family member, contributed partly due to his political naivety and blind spot.In spirit and 'organically' speaking one can surmise TGNA has reason and reasons to be in frail health. Lesser mortals would have been long torn apart but TGNI is no ordinary mortal.

You talk to any ordinary Kelantanese, whether he be Chinese, Malay ,card carrying members of PAS or non card carrying,fence sitters or even Amenu, TGNA is 'adik sikit pada wali kalau tidak wali'!Even if you talk to 'frogs' like Ibrahim Ali, he would not dare differ very much! This is gospel truth in KB today! Dare say otherwise you run the risk of 'funny' looks and the possibility of not being invited for the next kenduri!

We were in luck.Tok Guru did Zohor with his tahfiz boys[ some 100 of them studying the Quran at his pondok,surviving on public donations and TGNI'own salary cut] that Sunday cutting short his punishing routine at Kota Darul Naim [ KB's equivalent of Putrajaya ] for he was feeling under the weather.His face lighted up on seeing Deng and myself and lo and behold, we were invited to have lunch at his house , just some 40 feet away from the surau's mimbar. Reminded me of Masjid Nabawi 1450 years ago! It transpired much later to me that Deng is close to Tok Guru since the stormy 90's when as a post grad student in Jordan he acted as a tourist guide to Tok Guru when the later needed to visit Lebanon for an important conference.

TGNA's house is a small wooden shack by Putrajaya's standard. Painted with an understated yellow on the outside and light green interiorly.Dr M or Pak Lah I am sure would not want to be caught 'dead' in TGNI's wooden old house!Madame R would not even let her chickens live in it.Too small to even keep her massive wardrobe by her standard probably. That was my first thought. The guest hall is a spartan 12' by 15' area with an equally spartan wooden settee set which any young up and coming executive in KL would not be caught buying at any cheap sale in Court Mammoth.The young chap would receive hell from his wife.

After some minutes of brief formality, TGNI invited us to a simple lunch of lkan kering, budu , some ulam and tomyam. He himself went back into the kitchen to brew himself a cup of green tea. The dining hall was a wee bit bigger than the guest area. In one corner an exercise bike, a floor to roof cabinet full with books , amongst which I cannot help noticing, a full volume of Prof Hamka's Tafsir Al Azhar.A small dining table for six, equally spartan as the settee in the guest area.

A study of simplicity, frugality and accountability.A man who 'is truly just stopping under a shady tree' before he carries on his onward journey! I was inwardly ashamed of myself....By TGNI's standard, my small unassuming Subang Jaya house is excessive opulence, in size and furnishing!..This is the true meaning of zuhud living....a 'life' examined...a 'life' in continuous contact with Allah from dusk till dawn!

Dr Amin Rais in Conversation : Liberal Islam and Religious Pluralism

Lately there have been too many 'clowns', local and overseas, who should know better, who profess to speak for Islam, speaking to the gallery [ secular minded 'so called Muslims' and non Muslims ],who seemed mixed up and utterly confused in their aqidah. This exceprt of an interview with Indonesian intellectual,current doyen of the Muhammadiyah Movement , Dr Amin Rais, hopefully would clarify further the 'blurring' of vision and minds of the so called liberal "Islamists ". [ if there are such 'animals' that can be both liberal and Islamist at the same time!....just my after thought...as we all know there is only one brand of Islam: The way of Muhammad.. ]

Political correctness, an American exported disease, seem to be more important to our new intellectuals, rather than their aqidah!....Mashallah!!!


Excerpt from an interview with Dr Amin Rais by Majalah Tabligh, March Edition, 2010:

Pandangan Anda mengenai aliran pluralisme?
Akhir-akhir ini saya melihat istilah pluralisme yang sesungguhnya indah dan anggun justru telah ditafsirkan secara kebablasan. Sesungguhnya toleransi dan kemajemukan telah diajarkan secara baku dalam Al-Quran. Memang Al-Quran mengatakan hanya agama Islam yang diakui di sisi Allah, namun koeksistensi atau hidup berdampingan secara damai antar-umat beragama juga sangat jelas diajarkan melalui ayat, lakum diinukum waliyadin. Bagiku agamaku dan bagimu agamamu. Dalam istilah yang lebih teknis, wishfull coexistent among religions, atau hidup berdamai anatar umat beragama di muka bumi.

Tidak ada yang keliru dari aliran pluralisme ?
Nah, karena itu tidak ada yang salah kalau misalnya seorang Islam awam atau seorang tokoh Islam mengajak kita menghormati pluralisme. Karena tarikhnabi sendiri itu juga penuh ajaran toleransi antar beragama. Malahan antar-umat beragama boleh melakukan kemitraan di dalam peperangan sekalipun. Banyak peristiwa di zaman nabi ketika umat nasrani bergabung dengan tentara Islam untuk menghalau musuh yang akan menyerang Madinah.

Apa yang dibablaskan ?
Saya prihatin ada usaha-usaha ingin membablaskan pluralisme yang bagus itu menjadi sebuah pendapat yang ekstrim, yaitu pada dasarnya mereka mengatakan agama itu sama saja. Mengapa sama saja ? Karena tiap agama itu mencintai kebenaran. Dan tiap agama mendidik pemeluknya untuk memegang moral yang jelas dalam membedakan baik dan buruk. Saya kira kalau seorang muslim sudah mengatakan bahwa semua agama itu sama, maka tidak ada gunanya sholat lima waktu, bayar zakat, puasa Ramadhan, pergi haji, dan sebagainya. Karena agama jelas tidak sama. Kalau agama sama, banyak ayat Al-Quran yang harus dihapus. Nah, kalau sampai ajaran bahwa “semua agama sama saja” diterima oleh kalangan muda Islam; itu artinya, mereka tidak perlu lagi sholat, tidak perlu lagi memegang tuntunan syariat Islam. Kalau sapai mereka terbuai dan terhanyutkan oleh pendapat yang sangat berbahaya ini akhirnya mereka bisa bergonta-ganti agama dengan mudah seperti bergonta-ganti celana dalam atau
kaos kaki.

Apakah kebablasan pluralisme karena faktor kesengajaan atau rekayasa?
Saya kira jelas sekali adanya think tank atau dapur-dapur pemikiran yang sangat tidak suka kepada agama Allah kemudian membuat bualan yang kedengarannya enak di kuping: semua agama itu sama. Jika agama itu sama lantas apa gunanya ada masjid, ada gereja, ada kelenteng, ada vihara, ada sinagog, dan lain sebagainya.

Yang dimaksud dengan think tank ?
Saya yakin think tank itu ada di negara-negara maju yang punya dana berlebih, punya kemewahan untuk memikirkan bagaimana melakukan ghazwul fikri(perang intelektual terhadap dunia Islam). Misalnya, kepada Dunia Islam ditawarkan paham lâ diniyah sekularisme yang menganggap agama tidak penting, termasuk di dalamnya pluralisme, yang kelihatannya indah, tapi ujung-ujungnya adalah ingin menipiskan aqidah Islam supaya kemudian kaum Muslim tidak mempunyai fokus lagi. Bayangkan kalau intelektual generasi muda Islam sudah tipis imannya, selangkah lagi akan menjadi manusia sekuler, bahkan tidak mustahil mereka menjadi pembenci agamanya sendiri.

Sepertinya aliran pluralisme itu sudah masuk ke kalangan muda Muhammadiyah, pendapat Anda ?
Kalau sampai aliran pluralisme masuk ke kalangan muda Muhammadiyah, ini musibah yang perlu diratapi. Oleh karena itu, saya menganjurkan sebelum mereka membaca buku-buku professor dari Amerika dan Eropa, bacalah Al-Quran terlebih dahulu. Saya sendiri yang sudah tua begini, 66 tahun, sebelum saya membaca buku-buku Barat, baca Al-Quran dulu. Karena orang yang sudah baca Al-Quran, dia akan sampai pada kesimpulan bahwa berbagai ideologi yang ditawarkan oleh manusia seperti mainan anak-anak yang tidak berbobot. Jika meminjam istilah Sayyid Quthb, seorang yang duduk di bawah perlindungan Al-Quran ibarat sedang duduk di bukit yang tinggi kemudian melihat anak-anak sedang bermain-main dengan mainannya. Orang yang sudah paham Al-Quran akan bisa merasakan bahwa ideologi yang sifatnya man-made, buatan manusia, itu hanya lucu-lucuan saja. Hanya menghibur diri sesaat, untuk memenuhi kehausan intelektual ala kadarnya. Setelah itu bingung lagi.

Kenapa paham pluralisme itu bisa masuk ke kalangan muda Muhammadiyah? Apa karena Muhammadiyah terlalu terbuka atau karena sistem kaderisasi?
Hal ini perlu dipikirkan oleh pimpinan Muhammadiyah. Saya melihat, banyak kalangan muda Muhammadiyah yang sudah eksodus. Kadang-kadang masuk ke gerakan fundamentalisme, tapi juga tidak sedikit yang masuk Islam Liberal. Islam yang sudah melacurkan prinsipnya dengan berbagai nilai-nilai luar Islam. Hanya karena latah. Karena ingin mendapatkan ridho manusia, bukan ridho Ilahi. Oleh karena itu, lewat majalah Tabligh, saya ingin menghimbau kepada anak-anak saya, calon-calon intelektual Muhammadiyah, baik putra maupun putri, agar menjadikan Al-Quran sebagai rujukan baku . Saya pernah tinggal di Mesir selama satu tahun. Saya pernah diberitahu oleh doktor Muhammad Bahi, seorang intelektual Ikhwan, ketika saya bersilaturahmi ke rumah beliau, beliau mengatakan, “Hei kamu anak muda, kalau kamu kembali ke tanah airmu, kamu jangan merasa menjadi pejuang Muslim kalau kamu belum sanggup membaca Al-Quran satu juz satu hari.” Waktu itu saya agak tersodok juga, tetapi
setelah saya pikirkan, memang betul. Kalau Al-Quran sebagai wahyu ilahi yang betul-betul membawa kita kepada keselamatan dunia-akhirat, kita baca, kita hayati, kita implementasikan, kehidupan kita akan terang benderang. Tapi kalau pegangan kita pada Al-Quran itu setengah hati. Kemudian dikombinasikan dengan sekularisme, dengan pluralisme tanpa batas, dengan eksistensialisme, bahkan dengan hedonisme, maka kehidupan kita akan rusak. Sehingga betul seperti kata pendiri Muhammadiyah dalam sebuah ceramah beliau, “Ad-dâ’u musyârokatullâhi fii jabarûtih”. Namanya penyakit sosial, politik, hukum, dan lain-lain, itu sejatinya bersumber kepada menyekutukan Allah dalam hal kekuasaannya. Obatnya bukan menambah penyakit, yakni dengan isme-isme yang kebablasan, tapi obatnya itu, “adwâ’uhâ tauhîddullâhi haqqa”obatnya adalah tauhid dengan sungguh-sungguh. Jadi, saya juga ingat dengan kata-kata Mohammad Iqbal: “The sign of a kafir is that he is
lost in the horizons. The sign of a Mukmin is that the horizons are lost in him.”. Saya pernah termenung beberapa hari setelah membaca pernyataan Mohammad Iqbal yang sangat tajam itu. Karena betapa seorang mukmin akan begitu jelas, begitu paham, begitu terang benderang memahami persoalan dunia. Sedangkan orang kafir, bingung dan tersesat.

Sepertinya Muhamadiyah mulai terseret arus pluralisme, contohnya pada saat peluncuran novel Si Anak Kampoeng. Penulisnya mengatakan sebagian dari keuntungan penjualan akan digunakan untuk membentuk Gerakan Peduli Pluralisme, pandangan Anda ?
Saya tidak akan mengomentari apa dan siapa. Cuma adik saya yang anggota PP Muhammadiyah, pernah memberikan sedikit kriteria atau ukuran yang sangat bagus. Dia bilang begini, “Kalau orang Muhammadiyah sudah tidak pernah bicara tauhid dan malah bicara hal-hal di luar tauhid, apalagi kesengsrem dengan pluralisme, maka perlu melakukan koreksi diri.” Apakah itu tukang sapu di kantor Muhammadiyah, apakah tukang pembawa surat di kantor Muhammadiyah, apakah profesor botak, sama saja. Kalau sudah tidak kerasan berbicara tauhid, mau dikemanakan Muhammadiyah? Muhammadiyah ini bisa bertahan sampai satu abad, tetap kuat, tidak pikun, dan masih segar, karena tauhidnya. Implementasi tauhidnya di bidang sosial, pendidikan, hukum, politik, itu yang menjadikan Muhammadiyah perkasa dan tidak terbawa arus.

"How can the blind be equal to the seer?"...The Quran.



"Among them there are some who listen to you. But can you make the deaf hear incapable as they are of understanding? Among them there are some who look at you. But can you guide the blind, bereft as they are of sight? Allah does not wrong people in any way; rather it is people who wrong themselves. On the day We gather them together-when it will seem as if they had tarried no more than an hour of a single day-they will recognize one another. Those who denied the meeting with Allah and did not follow the right path will be lost.".... (Surah Yunus: 42-45)

"The sign of a kafir is that he is lost in the horizons. The sign of a mukmin is that the horizons are lost in him".....Iqbal

....Tan Sri, we can use the ISA !..

And they say: If only this Qur'an had been revealed to some great man of the two towns? (31) Is it they who apportion thy Lord's mercy? We have apportioned among them their livelihood in the life of the world, and raised some of them above others in rank that some of them may take labour from others; and the mercy of thy Lord is better than (the wealth) that they amass. (32) And were it not that mankind would have become one community, We might well have appointed, for those who disbelieve in the Beneficent, roofs of silver for their houses and stairs (of silver) whereby to mount, (33) And for their houses doors (of silver) and couches of silver whereon to recline, (34) And ornaments of gold. Yet all that would have been but a provision of the life of the world. And the Hereafter with your Lord would have been for those who keep from evil. (35) And he whose sight is dim to the remembrance of the Beneficent, We assign unto him a devil who becometh his comrade; (36) And lo! they surely turn them from the way of Allah, and yet they deem that they are rightly guided; (37)

...Surah Al Zukruf , 43 : 31-37
*********************************


That reminded myself,2 years back I wrote about a conversation between two 'movers and shakers' of society in Down Town Makkah:


Wednesday, May 14, 2008:-



Consider this conversation in corporate Arabia , in a coffee house , some 1400 years back :

A, A Tan Sri, :" Dato , Who is this chap I heard going around in the market place saying that he is the new 'Ibrahim' ? Havent we got enough of this nonsense already ?Anyway what is his background ? Has he gone to Harvard or Oxbridge ? Must be one of the son of that Hashemite oil trader ?"

B : "No lah Tan Sri , from what I heard he did not even know how to read .This chap did not even go to school even though his root is not bad.Somehow his 'servicing' must be good otherwise how can one explain that, that rich widow ,apakahnama diadah, falls head over heels in love with him ....The message he is spreading is another thing...amongst the workers and ignorant fellas ,in my estimation... Tan Sri... could be damaging for big business . Any way that we could coerce the Home Minister to apply the ISA on him ,Tan Sri ?Already half of my workers have gone AWOL !

A :Ehhhhh,... ISA is not advisable yet lah Dato!. Too early for that. What would his people and followers say. We cannot make him a hero rightaway .Try to use the soft soft approach Ist lah .Pass the word around that this is a mad fellow, and try to discredit him some way or other. Check his sex life . His funny habits, likes and dislikes. This chap cannot be perfect, Dato' ... .If this does not work ,only then we use the big stick ...

" And other faces on that Day with dust upon them [40] Veiled in darkness [41] These are the disbelievers , the wicked [42]
Surah Abasa , 80 : 40-42

How succinct the above conversation .Could be even now .Is he from Harvard or Oxbridge ? No lah Tan Sri ,just from an unknown pondok somewhere in Kelantan ...apakahnamadiadah ....Nik something...and then somehow this chap go somewhere in India to one of those pondok school and then got polished in Al Azhar. Small chap ,does not look clever at all. In fact looked fairly stupid in his kopiah, now they even called him Tok Guru....Giving us a lot of problem though !
......and that conversation was some 40 years back, in another coffee house in Down town KL, also between a Tan Sri and a Federal Datuk.

Anjakan Paradigma (Paradigm Shift)

Friends,

The beauty of life as a Muslim is that we already have a revealed,proven template for excellence.Excellence in Islam is just not a measure of material wealth.Very far from it. Not just limited to the 'Here'.The 'hereafter' is equally important, if not more important.In Islam we need to aim for excellence in both the 'here' and the 'hereafter'.That is ideal.

When Tariq Ziad some 1300 years ago crossed the treacherous Strait of Jabal Tariq into southern Europe, he then burn down all his long boats and never looked back. That single act of burning his only 'bridge' back to Morocco was indeed a paradigm shift for barbaric Europe.The early Muslims brought renaisance and civilising influence there.

Now and in the past 200 years the Europeans, and my God, lately even the newly, almost self declared 'Imperial' Americans, have repackaged the Message and busily shafting down our parents'throats, our throats and in future, our children's and children children's throats, their 'corrupted and debased values.Wrongs become right and right become wrong. Political correctness more important than truth and justice. All topsy turvy.....

Nonetheless, Steve Covey's 7 habits of Highly Effective People is a superb, albeit ,semi Jewish, semi secular world view of looking at things. In the 60's we had Carnegie and Reverend Norman Vincent Peale[ my guru in my 'lonely' 'standard 4' days as I was orphaned early in life ].

We have here a young man, 'Ustaz Hasrizal' who has 'Islamised' Stephen's Coveys 7 Habits.We need not reinvent the wheels. We just need to reorient ourselves to look at knowledge through the Islamic world view:"Rabbana atina fiddunya hasanah, wafil-a khiratihasanatan wakina azabannar"...God, give us excellence in the 'here' and 'hereafter',remove us away from the 'hellfire'...This in essence is the Islamic world view: EXCELLENCE in the "HERE" and the "HEREAFTER".

One can be a billionaire or PM or, both a PM and a billionaire, but if one's 'hereafter' is not taken care off in the 'here', one is worse than a pauper!

We, young and old , all of us, need to reinvent and refresh ourselves, and insyaallah, make that quantum leap to success in the 'here' and more importantly, in the 'hereafter'. Enjoy the tapes........

Dr Nik Howk

"This life of the world is but a pastime and a game. Lo! the home of the Hereafter - that is Life, if they but knew."...[Surah Al Ankaboot , 29 : 64]

"...O my dear son! Lo! though it be but the weight of a grain of mustard-seed, and though it be in a rock, or in the heavens, or in the earth, Allah will bring it forth. Lo! Allah is Subtile, Aware. (16) O my dear son! Establish worship and enjoin kindness and forbid iniquity, and persevere whatever may befall thee. Lo! that is of the steadfast heart of things. (17) Turn not thy cheek in scorn toward folk, nor walk with pertness in the land. Lo! Allah loveth not each braggart boaster. (18) Be modest in thy bearing and subdue thy voice. Lo! the harshest of all voices is the voice of the ass. (19) See ye not how Allah hath made serviceable unto you whatsoever is in the skies and whatsoever is in the earth and hath loaded you with His favours both without and within? Yet of mankind is he who disputeth concerning Allah, without knowledge or guidance or a scripture giving light. (20) And if it be said unto them: Follow that which Allah hath revealed, they say: Nay, but we follow that wherein we found our fathers. What! Even though the devil were inviting them unto the doom of flame? (21) Whosoever surrendereth his purpose to Allah while doing good, he verily hath grasped the firm hand-hold. Unto Allah belongeth the sequel of all things. (22) And whosoever disbelieveth, let not his disbelief afflict thee (O Muhammad). Unto Us is their return, and We shall tell them what they did. Lo! Allah is Aware of what is in the breasts (of men). (23) We give them comfort for a little, and then We drive them to a heavy doom. (24) If thou shouldst ask them: Who created the heavens and the earth? they would answer: Allah. Say: Praise be to Allah! But most of them know not. (25)"
