Ya Allah! Apa ni?
Saya menggeleng kepala. Salinan kad pengenalan si Zamri amat memeranjatkan saya. Apatah tidaknya. Nama penuh di dalam MyKad itu berbeza dengan namanya dalam salinan sijil kelahirannya. Yang manakah yang betul ni?
Something fishy is going on... begitulah komen seorang cikgu apabila saya menyuarakan masalah
"Kamu tahukah ada beza nama kamu di antara Kad pengenalan dengan sijil kelahiran kamu?" saya bertanya padanya.
Zamri mengangguk perlahan. Badannya besar, lebih besar daripada saiz biasa pelajar Tingkatan 2.
"Tau, teacher..." jawabnya.
"Bapa kamu tak tanya pegawai yang keluarkan MyKad kamu, mengapa nama penuh kamu ini berlainan?"
"Ada, tapi mereka cakap tak boleh buat apa.. tak boleh ubah."
Saya menyuruhnya kembali ke tempat duduk. Pening. Kes yang agak berat sebab selama ini, semua rekod persekolahan Zamri menggunakan nama penuhnya dalam Sijil kelahiran, iaitu Mohd Zamri bin Mohd Ariffin Tan [bukan nama sebenar].
Mungkinkah pihak JPN tersilap, sebab bapa kandungnya seorang mualaf Cina, yang memegang kad pemaustatin tetap? Pelik juga, pemastautin tetap yang negara asalnya Malaysia? Ibunya seorang warganegara Malaysia berbangsa Melayu.
Saya bandingkan salinan surat beranak Zamri dengan salinan pelajar-pelajar lain. Hmmm, ada sedikit perbezaan rupanya.
Tandatangan pelapor dalam sijil kelahiran Zamri mempunyai 2 tanda tangan, iaitu ibu dan bapanya. Terdapat juga cop yang tertera,'permohonan seksyen 13.'
Setelah selesai meng-google seksyen 13 itu, rupa-rupanya sangkaan saya ternyata benar.
Zamri adalah anak sulung ibu bapanya,kemungkinan besar dilahirkan kurang daripada 6 bulan setelah mereka bernikah. Zamri anak ltak sah taraf.
Oleh sebab itulah, pihak JPN telah memasukkan nama bapa kandung Zamri dalam ruang bapa dalam sijil kelahirannya. Lahirlah Mohd Zamri bin Mohd Ariffin Tan.
Namun begitu, apabila Zamri memohon Kad Pengenalan semasa berumur 12 tahun, dia telah diberikan nama baru, iaitu Mohd Zamri bin Abdullah.
Kasihan dia. Bayangkanlah sekiranya anda di tempat Zamri, selama 12 tahun diajar menulis nama sebagai AA, kemudian bila mendapat MyKad, disuruh pula tulis nama sebagai AB. Tentu akan tertanya-tanya. Mungkin juga kawan-kawan serta guru turut bertanya, yang manakah namanya yang betul?
Saya diberitahu, itulah polisi Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara. Kononnya untuk mengelakkan anak itu malu sebab sebelum ni, dalam ruang bapa, akan ditulis "Tiada Maklumat" walaupun bapa kandungnya telah bernikah dengan ibunya semasa dia dalam kandungan ibu.
Bagi anak luar nikah beragama Islam yang dilahirkan sekarang, ada pihak memberitahu saya bahawa mereka akan diberikan nama bapa kandung juga tetapi tanpa perkataan 'bin'. Misalnya Noranita Abdul Halim sahaja. Bukan lagi Noranita binti Abdullah atau Noranita binti Abdul Halim.
Apa-apapun, saya berharap biarlah hanya satu nama saja dalam kedua-dua surat beranak dan kad pengenalan si anak itu.Tak perlulah sehingga anak itu mempunyai 2 nama. Menyusahkan dirinya dan memeningkan pihak sekolah.
Kasihan Zamri.
Sijil UPSRnya tertera nama penuhnya mengikut surat beranak, sebab ketika itu dia belum mendapat kad pengenalan.
Semua rekod persekolahan Zamri sekarang masih mengekalkan nama mengikut sijil kelahiran sebab dia didaftarkan di sekolah menengah mengikut nama dalam sijil kelahirannya itu, dan sebab itulah namanya dalam data PPD serta Kementerian Pelajaran berbinkan bapa kandung.
Kini pihak sekolah pula pening.
Zamri perlu didaftarkan untuk PMR pada tahun hadapan, menggunakan nama penuhnya dalam kad pengenalan, yang tidak sama dengan namanya dalam sijil kelahiran.
Ini bermakna dia mungkin menghadapai masalah memohon kerja kelak sebab nama dalam kad pengenalan dan sijil PMR/SPM berbeza dengan sijil berhenti sekolahnya [jika masih dkekalkan namanya mengikut sijil kelahiran]
Semua hanya sebab ibu dan bapa kandungnya membuat satu kesilapan - mereka 'bersama' sebelum bernikah!
Walaupun mereka tetap berkahwin kemudiannya, kesilapan lama tetap memberi kesan sepanjang hayat pada diri anak sulung mereka.
Walaupun mungkin mereka telah bertaubat..
Kesannya masih ada..
Anak sulung mereka yang menjadi mangsa keadaan.
Malunya dia, Allah sahaja yang tahu.
Fikir-fikirkanlah...
Keputusan Muzakarah Jawatankuasa Fatwa Majlis Kebangsaan Bagi Hal Ehwal Agama Islam yang menyatakan tentang status anak yang dikandung ibunya di luar pernikahan yang sah, iaitu:
‘Perempuan yang mengandung anak luar nikah harus dinikahkan tetapi anaknya tidak boleh dinasabkan kepada lelaki itu, tidak dapat pusaka daripadanya, tidak menjadi mahram kepadanya dan lelaki itu tidak boleh menjadi walinya’.
‘Anak zina atau anak luar nikah (anak tak sah taraf) sama ada diikuti dengan perkahwinan kedua pasangan ibu bapanya atau tidak, hendaklah dibin atau dibintikan kepada Abdullah’.
Two roads diverged at thirty-five, and I - I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference.

INTRODUCE HIM TO OTHERS, DON'T BE SELFISH LAAAA
Assalamualaikum,
Busy week but I'd like to share this wonderful video clip with everyone...
On Maulidur Rasul, for many years including 2012, groups of Muslims have been going around with roses, chocolates and books about prophet Muhammad SAW. No, it's not to commemorate Valentine's Day but to introduce Muhammad SAW to non-Muslims and share with them his story, and why Muslims revere him so.Wish I were around to help but had to be with the children that day.There are also other pictures but need to ask the photographer's permission before putting them here.
I wrote about this project back in the year 2010, which was a great success. I was told that the gifts were specially prepared and cost about RM10 each [book, rose and choc]. Donations are most welcomed, for next year's project :)
Congratulations to IPSI [Islamic Propagation Society International], Ustaz Kamarudin Abdullah and the groups of youngsters who were brave to approach non-Muslim strangers and talk about our beloved prophet.
They did not walk in processions with banners. They did not sang nasyeed song nor recited the selawat loudly that day. Instead they walked in shopping centres and streets in small groups with gifts for English-reading non-Muslim strangers.
I can imagine how nervous they must had felt as they approached a stranger. Would he/she be happy to accept their gift? Or would that person frown when he/she sees the title of the book and start to accuse them of trying to convert people to Islam? How many of us Muslims would dare to do like those Muslim missionaries ?

STEAMBOAT AND YEE SANG
As a Chinese Muslim, I have always tried to expose my husband and children to suitable Chinese culture. This year, for Chinese New Year, I decided to have a steamboat party especially as I have just bought a new multi cooker. I asked Husband to invite his close friends and usrah members to come over to the house on the 5th day of Chinese New Year. Just a small group of about 18 people as it was the first time for us as hosts. Alhamdulillah, they turned up with their family members.
"How do I eat this?"
"What do you call this?"
I was more than happy to answer their questions. There was plenty of food for the steamboat. We did two variety- original Chinese soup base and Husband's tomyam soup. He said that some Malays might find the original taste too bland. I had to show them the correct way of putting the ingredients into the pot and how to eat the cooked food. As it turned out, my soup was more popular than Husband's, hehehee.
"Dessert.. ginkgo baloba," said Husband when I put bowls of the sweet dessert on the table for the guests.
"The Hokkien Chinese call this 'pek kueh'. the Cantonese call it 'pak koh'" I explained, telling them that the dessert made of gingko, red dates and dried longan is famous during Chinese New Year. And I also showed them the uncooked and unpeeled gingko, as they had never eaten it before.
"When shall we eat that, dear? Everyone's waiting!" Husband sounded very eager to try out the food that I had arranged on a big plate.
"Ok, we can eat now."
"What's this called?" asked a friend.
"It's yee-sang. Made of dried yam, pomeloes, carrots, etc. Don't worry, it's halal.. see, it's written on the label ,'vegetarian yee sang." I explained as I showed them the label of the prepacked yee sang bought at the hypermarket..
"How to eat ?"
"Follow me. Everyone hold the chopsticks like this and toss the food as high as you can.. mix the ingredients together.. Chinese say 'loh hei, loh hei' as they do this," I demonstrated. Everybody started to follow suit.
"Nice.. sedap laaa." they commented, tasting the yee sang for the first time in their lives.
While eating, the Malay guests asked me many questions about the Chinese custom during this special day, the do's and don'ts and what would be considered syirik. I explained as much as I could, based on my knowledge and experiences.
Alhamdulillah, thanks to Allah SWT for allowing us to have the special Chinese New Year lunch with friends and helping everyone to learn and appreciate Chinese culture. This is very different from my first Chinese New Year day as a Muslimah back in February 2007 which I had to spend it alone in my empty hostel because I was barred from returning home by my still-angry parents.
note: Been busy with Ihsan's sickness [tonsillitis - alhamdulillah, recovering], Ikram's activeness, and yours truly's current poor health :(

BUKAN TAK MAU POTONG LAAAA..
"Daripada Abu Hurairah katanya, bahawa Rasulullah SAW bersabda yang bermaksud: “Ada lima perkara yang dikategorikan sebagai fitrah (sifat semula jadi) seseorang manusia iaitu berkhatan, mencukur bulu kemaluan, memotong kuku, mencabut bulu ketiak dan menggunting misai.” (Hadis riwayat al-Bukhari dan Muslim)
"Errr, doktor.. sini ada buat khatan tak?"
Saya memandang doktor lelaki itu dengan wajah serius. Kesempatan berada di klinik sebab demam dan batuk perlu digunakan sebaik-baiknya. Bertanya untuk nak dapat ilmu dan bantu orang lain.
"Ada.. saya sendiri yang lakukannya untuk orang dewasa dan kanak-kanak," kata Dr.Aziz [bukan nama sebenar].
"Berapa harga untuk berkhatan?"
"Antara RM250 hingga RM300. Untuk kanak-kanak separuh harga."
"Mengapa sampai Rm200 lebih, doktor? Guna laserkah?"
"Di sini kami buat cara biasa aja, tapi untuk orang yang nak berkhatan terutama lelaki dewasa, saya suruh buat appointment dulu. Kena buat pemeriksaan fizikal. Mahal sikit sebab ubat bius yang diberikan lebih banyak berbanding dewasa dan ubat-ubat juga perlu lebih kuat dan mencepatkan penyembuhan. Maklumlah orang dewasa mesti kerja, paling lama pun cuti seminggu untuk sembuh.," doktor itu tersenyum. Suaranya tenang saja.
Saya angguk tanda faham.
"Kanak-kanak biasanya buat masa cuti sekolah, dapatlah berehat lebih lama di rumah. Orang dewasa, susahlah sikit. Sebab itu ubat yang kami berikan di sini lebih kuat dan mahal.Lepas seminggu, suruh dia datang semula untuk periksa keadaan."
"Mana lebih baik, guna pisau biasa atau laser?"
"Bergantung, tetapi jika cara klamp, susah nak tengok sebab tertutup.. bila dah klamp terlebih potong, kena pergi hospital pula. Jika guna pisau, masih boleh betulkan sedikit," terangnya lagi.
"Hmmm, pernahkah lelaki muallaf buat di sini?"
"Ada, kami biasa terima lelaki dewasa dari kalangan saudara baru yang mahu berkhatan. Ada kawankah yang nak buat?"
"Ada juga yang bertanya.. biasalah, kami ni kumpulan kecil tetapi sering berkomunikasi dalam internet."
Kini gilirannya pula senyum. Saya mengucapkan terima kasih sebelum meninggalkan bilik consultation.

Hmmm, RM300 untuk berkhatan? Mahal juga rupanya... maklumlah bukan mudah nak lakukan untuk orang dewasa.. tentu ubat bius dan sebagainya pun lebih banyak berbanding untuk seorang kanak-kanak.Jikalau clamp, dengar kata mencecah sehingga RM600!
Jikalau seorang muallaf lelaki dewasa tidak mampu untuk membayar harga yang sesuai [Rm100 hingga RM600] untuk amalan wajib ini, apakah yang perlu dibuatnya? Tak tahu pula saya sama ada pihak jabatan agama Islam sediakan majlis berkhatan beramai-ramai untuk muallaf lelaki di Malaysia, huhu.. sebab tak pernah saya baca/dengar tentang hal ini ketika melawat ke sana.
Tatkala ramai orang Islam yang suka bertanya saudara baru lelaki 'sudah sunat ker belum?' berapa orangkah yang benar-benar ikhlas nak tolongnya jika dia mengaku belum bersunat?
Temankan dia ke klinik? Bantu dia semasa dia sedang sembuh daripada luka? Bantu dia dari segi kewangan, makanan, pengangkutan ke klinik dan sebagainya?
Atau sekadar menggelengkan kepala apabila si muallaf baru itu berkata,"belum lagi la abang, saya belum cukup duit nak berkhatan." lalu memarahinya dengan kata-kata "Tak sah solat jikalau tak berkhatan tau! Issshhh buat apa tunggu lagi, pergi la klinik, minta doktor potong! Sakit kejap je! Takkanlah awak takut?"

Syukurlah saya tidak dilahirkan lelaki, tak peninglah saya dengan perkara ini.
Kasihanlah saudara seagamaku yang miskin harta.. bagaimana nak lakukan amalan wajib ni? Ada siapa nak sponsor jika terdapat mereka yang memerlukan?
