Ghaib di Mekah, muncul di Pahang (Ikhtibar)
 
Cerita ini adalah ringkasan daripada sebuah cerita yang saya dengar melalui seorang Ustaz terkenal yang tidak mahu namanya disiarkan.Kisahnya mengenai seorang jemaah haji, saya namakan Ahmad yang hobinya suka berjalan-jalan. Memanglah tujuan seseorang pergi menunaikan fardhu haji bukan untuk berjalan-jalan makan angin, melancong atau membeli-belah tetapi untuk beribadat dan memohon keampunan daripada Allah.Sebaik selepas sembahyang, tawaf atau sai dia lesap entah ke mana hinggakan kadang-kadang 2-3 hari tak nampak batang hidung. Bila ditanya, dia akan menjawab,"Eh, tak pergi mana-mana.Saya ada.Tadi pergi jalan-jalan kejap".Lama-lama hobinya
itu semakin mengasyikkan.Dari kota Makkah dia merayau-rayau sehingga keluar kota sampai ke padang pasir.Suatu hari rakan jemaah melaporkan si Ahmad ini tak balik-balik tanpa memberitahu sesiapa.Berbagai usaha dijalankan untuk mencari Ahmad tapi tak berhasil.Akhirnya pada suatu hari mereka dikejutkan apabila menerima panggilan telefon dari tanahair. Rupa-rupanya Ahmad yang
menelefon dari Malaysia."Saya sihat ni,dah balik ke Pahang",dia memberitahu.Dia meminta maaf kerana kehilangannya telah menyusahkan rakan-rakannya. Menurut cerita Ahmad,dia pulang ke Malaysia bukan menaiki kapal terbang atau kapal laut tetapi berjalan kaki mengikut sebuah lubang di padang pasir semasa berada di tanah suci.Ahmad bercerita, semasa dia tersesat,dia cuba mancari jalan pulang tetapi gagal sehingga semakin jauh pula perjalanannya.Setelah kepenatan,tiba-tiba dia ternampak satu lubang besar di tengah padang pasir itu dan juga terdapat seseorang yang melambaikan tangan ke arahnya.Dia mengikut lelaki itu dengan harapan dapat pulang ke hotel penginapannya.Semakin jauh dia berjalan terasa perjalanannya semakin asing dan bukan di kawasan padang pasir lagi.Akhirnya dia menemui sebuah perkampungan di bawahnya.Keadaan di sekitarnya tidak ubah seperti di kampung halamannya di Pahang.Rupa-rupanya memang benar dia telah berada di kampungnya dan terus berjalan pulang ke rumahnya.Yang menghairankan,! siapakah lelaki yang membawanya masuk ke dalam lubang di padang pasir itu?Jinkah?Ibliskah?Atau malaikat?Sesungguhnya tiada siapa dapat memberikan jawapannya dengan tepat kecuali Allah jua.Oleh itu,walau apa pun pekerjaan
yang kita buat, nawaitu kita mesti betul.Apatah lagi semasa mengerjakan haji.Sebelum berangkat ke tanah suci,awal-awal lagi hendaklah kita berniat:Bahawa aku pergi ke Makkah ini hanyalah untuk mengerjakan haji,bukan untuk berjalan-jalan atau melancong dsb.SEKIAN,TERIMA KASIH

Important: Microwave poisoning (Awas!)
 
As a seventh grade student, Claire Nelson learned that di(ethylhexyl)adepate (DEHA), considered a carcinogen, is found in plastic wrap. She also learned that the FDA had never studied the effect of microwave cooking on plastic-wrapped food Claire began to wonder: "Can cancer-causing particles seep into food covered with household plastic wrap while it is being microwaved?" Three years later, with encouragement
from her high school science teacher, Claire set out to test what the
FDA had not.Although she had an idea for studying the effect of microwave radiation on plastic-wrapped food, she did not have the equipment. Eventually, Jon Wilkes at the National Center for Toxicological Research in Jefferson,Arkansas, agreed to help her. The research Center, which is affiliated with the FDA, let her use its facilities to perform her experiments, which involved microwaving plastic wrap in virgin olive oil. Claire tested four different plastic wraps and "found not just the carcinogens but also xenoestrogen was migrating into the oil." - Xenoestrogens are linked to low sperm counts in men and to breast cancer in women. Throughout her junior and senior years, Claire made a couple of trips each week to the research center, which was 25 miles from her home, to work on her experiment. An article in Options reported that "her analysis found that DEHA was migrating into the oil at between 200 parts and 500 parts per million. The FDA standard is 0.05 parts per billion." Her summarized results have been published in science journals Claire Nelson received the American Chemical Society's top science prize for students during her junior year and fourth place at the International Science and Engineering Fair (Fort Worth, Texas) as a senior "Carcinogens-At 10,000,000 Times FDA Limits" Options May 2000. Published by People Against Cancer, 515-972-4444 On Channel 2 (Huntsville, AL) this morning they had a Dr. Edward
Fujimoto from Castle Hospital on the program. He is the manager of the Wellness Program at the hospital. He was talking about dioxins and how bad they are for us. He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This applies to foods that contain fat. He said that the combination of fat, high heat and plastics releases dioxins into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body. Dioxins are carcinogens and highly toxic to the cells of our bodies. Instead, he recommends using glass, Corning Ware, or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results without the dioxins So such things as TV dinners, instant saimin and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else. Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper. Just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc.He said we might remember when some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.

Pass this on to your friends....

To add to this: Saran wrap placed over foods as they are nuked, with the high heat, actually drips poisonous toxins into the food. Use towel
instead.

Five Great Lessons (Motivasi)
 
FIVE GREAT LESSONS - forgotten too many times:

Use them at work and at house especially.

1 - Most Important Lesson

During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions, until I read the last one:

"What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?" Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade. "Absolutely," said the professor. "In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say 'hello'." I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy.

Never forget people - even those whose tasks seem small.


2 - Second Important Lesson - Pickup in the Rain

One night, at 11:30 PM, an older African American woman was standing on the side of an Alabama highway trying to endure a lashing rain storm. Her car had broken down and she desperately needed a ride. Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car.A young white man stopped to help her, generally unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960s. The man took her to safety, helped her get assistance and put her into a taxicab. She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his address and thanked him.Seven days went by and a knock came on the man's door. To his surprise, a giant console color TV was delivered to his home. A
special note was attached. It read: "Thank you so much for assisting me on the highway the other night. The rain drenched not only my clothes, but also my spirits. Then you came along. Because of you, I was able to make it to my dying husband's bedside just before he passed away. God bless you for helping me and unselfishly serving others."

Sincerely,
Mrs. Nat King Cole.

No matter what colour, race or religion.


3 - Third Important Lesson -Always remember those who serve

In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10 year old boy entered a hotel shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him. "How much is an ice cream sundae?" he asked "Fifty cents," replied the waitress. The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied the coins in it. "Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?" he inquired. By now more people
were waiting for a table and the waitress was growing impatient. "Thirty-five cents," she brusquely replied."The little boy again counted his coins. "I'll have the plain ice cream," he said. The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and left. When the waitress came back, she began to cry as she wiped down the table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were two nickels and five pennies.

You see, he couldn't have the sundae because he had to have
enough left to leave her a tip.


4 - Fourth Important Lesson - The Obstacle in Our Path

In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the king for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the stone out of the way. Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded. After the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the king indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway.

The peasant learned what many of us never understand. Every obstacle
presents an opportunity to improve our condition.


5 - Fifth Important Lesson - Giving When it Counts

Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little
brother, and asked the little boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, "Yes, I'll do it if it will save her." As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheek. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, "Will I start to die right away?"

Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all his blood.
