Delisa cinta Umi kerana Allah :'))

Assalamualaikum..
I was 'called' to review a movie. Its our neighbour's named Hafalan Shalat Delisa (HSD). Whats about it? Ive heard about it from my baby sister (you know who you are). She told me that its a story about Tsunami and Acheh. Thats it. Not until few days ago I found a link from my friend on FB and I watched it at 230 in the morning last two days. So here I am. Feeling guilty for delaying the review but better late than sorry.

A sneak synopsis on the story line. The setting of HSD took place in Acheh, Indonesia in 2004. The same year that shocked the world of the tragic Tsunami. I was 16 back then and major thing that struck my mind was the image of a mosque that wasnt affected from the incident. Nuff about me.

Please google for synopsis

Ada beberapa perkara yang aku rasa betul-betul mencengkam hati and kalau korang yg tengok jugak tak nangis, I guess there MUST be something wrong with you people. It shares the beauty of Islam... And Acheh too :')

Ni pengkisahan dari sudut Islam secara general:

1) Jangan pernah mengharapkan balasan di atas sesuatu yang kita lakukan. Never, never and never. Kita kena IKHLAS dalam setiap apa jugak yg kita buat. IKHLAS tu umpama semut hitam, di atas batu hitam, pada malam gelap. Kita takkan nampak, tapi kita tahu ia pasti ada :)

2) Sentiasa redha atas ketentuan Allah SWT. Walau macam mana susah and teruk sekalipun kita diuji, sentiasa ucap syukur sebab masih ramai lagi yg nasibnya lebih buruk daripada kita. But in this case, Tsunami adalah mimpi ngeri yg benar-benar membuatkan seluruh umat Islam hampir diseluruh dunia bersatu membantu mangsa dan ia juga antara ujian Allah SWT paling besar pada negara jiran kita, Indonesia. (Juga sebagai peringatan pada yg lain juga)

3) Islam menganjurkan kita berbuat baik sesama manusia, tak kira bangsa atau agama. Aku percaya Om Ah Chan yang sekampung dengan Delisa sekeluarga tu bukan beragama Islam (pertuturannya telo Cina tapi pekat dalam Bahasa Indonesia) tapi layanan mereka sama saja dengan jiran2 Muslim yg lainnya. Saling membantu dan berusaha membaiki kehidupan bersama lepas kejadian.

Dan apa yg dipotraitkan oleh pengarah HSD tentang Muslim di Acheh adalah:

1) Betapa mereka menjunjung agama Islam semenjak daripada kecik lagi. Mak-mak ni sampai ikut anak-anak ke sekolah untuk amali solat. Semangat tunggu dekat luar to show their support and excited gila bila anak lulus :) (Which I hardly seen in Malaysia). Next is, bagaimana seorang ibu mengimamkan solat empat anak perempuannya disebabkan ketiadaan suami yg merantau mencari rezeki. Bukanlah mak-mak kat Malaysia tak imamkan anak-anak diorang tapi entahla bila aku tengok cerita ni aku ada satu perasaan yg sangat halus. Betapa meskipun kesusahan menghimpit, hidup sekadar untuk hari ni, esok belum tentu, tapi cinta mereka pada Allah SWT, MasyaAllah. Dasyat ;)

2) Aurat. Semenjak kecil lagi anak-anak Acheh diajar untuk menutup aurat tak kisahlah dah baligh ke belum. Tutup sempurna atau tak tapi itulah yg jelas aku nampak. Sampai satu scene tu bila Delisa dan Uminya (Nirina Zubir) nak ke pekan, and Nirina pakai tudung agak singkat (tak tutup dada) and anak sulungnya (tak ingat nama) tegur and cakap warna tudung tu tak sesuai dengan baju and bagi sehelai lagi tudung yg lebih sesuai (kononnya) dan semestinya lebih labuh untuk uminya pakai. #Ironi. Delisa, kakak-kakaknya and semua budak kecik perempuan kat dalam cite ni tak nampak kekok langsung pakai tudung.

3) Ketabahan dan kesungguhan mereka meneruskan kehidupan. Seperti yg kita semua maklum Indonesia memang sinonim dengan bencana alam disebabkan kedudukan georgrafinya. Tapi apa yang pasti diorang sikit pun tak mengeluh (sekurang-kurangnya dalam HSD) tak seorang pun yg menyalahkan takdir malah sentiasa positif dan menyokong satu sama lain dalam menghadapi dugaan.


Ini antara beberapa key points yg boleh aku rumuskan dalam HSD. Memang tak dinafikan, sifat kapitalis pasti ada dalam jiwa setiap pembikin filem. Tak banyak, sikit tetap ada TAPI secara peribadi aku rasa HSD adalah sebuah filem yg menyuntik semangat keinsafan dalam diri umat Islam khususnya di negara-negara Islam di nusantara.

Mungkin mesej penghayatan Islam hampir sama dengan Ayat-ayat Cinta atau Ketika Cinta Bertasbih tapi pendekatan yg digunakan sangatlah berbeza. Mengangkat Tsunami 2004 yg kita anggap sebagai bala bencana sebagai suatu medium baru untuk kita lebih mencintai Allah SWT. Garapan yg menarik dengan hanya menggunakan gadis kecil sebagai teraju utama, HSD terasa lebih dekat berbanding cerita ketuhanan yg ada di Malaysia.

Aku melihat media Malaysia lebih bersifat kapitalis sebab lebih banyak cerita-cerita hantu, syirik, tahyul yg diterbitkan berbanding cerita-cerita berunsur 'makanan rohani' macam ni. Ya, Indonesia pun ada jugak cerita hantu bagai semua tu, tapi kenapa Malaysia susah sangat nak hasilkan cerita-cerita macam ni? Itu persoalannya.

Malaysia tak banyak bencana alam so tak perlulah nak terbitkan lagi. Is that so? Kalau itulah jawapannya pada soalan tadi, then I must be very upset. As a media student, Ive gotta see films as one of the BEST mediums to promote all sorta good things. And why must HORROR instead of LOVE TO ALLAH? HUMANITY? What happened to these kinda genres? Oh its by popular demand. Malaysian just love horror. Guess what? That is the most CAPITALIST statement ever.

What else, oh ye. Saya menulis bukan bertujuan mengangkat filem luar dan meremehkan filem tempatan tapi tak salah mengambil sesuatu yg baik as a guidance for future reference kan? Its jez my two cents. Moga-moga ada pembikin filem kat luar sana yg tersinggah and terbaca entry ni terbukak hati nak terbitkan karya-karya yg berunsur Ketuhanan dan 'soul food' macam ni. Seriously dude, Malaysian really need this kinda movie.

So dear readers, please I beg you. Watch this movie. You'll never regret. Meskipun ada a bit slow here and there but overall the message was nicely delivered and they simply taught us to believe in qada' and qadar and to goes on with life even when you lost person you loved the most. Allah knows well and whatever HE plans for us, HE must have create it the BEST for you.


PS: Air muka Delisa ni ada iras-iras Wardina Saffiyah sikit and it jez come to my mind that Wardina's clan is from Acheh :')

Thanks for reading. Till then! Loves, F

Wordless Wednesday

Assalamualaikum!

Okay I guess I have to make clarification on something today. Sorry if I ever made anyone feel left out. Deep inside I was never meant that way. Sorry if anyone think Ive changed. That is because Ive got so many plans on my head and it requires my 200% commitment in achieving them. I am now 24 (not yet, but reaching) I need to be more focus in life. Ive gotta think of my future. Well it is no doubt that when you found someone whom you think would be the person you’d spent the rest of your life with, you’ll absorb more positive vibes around. You’ll start to think of what type of career you should start, a dream wedding, your kind of ideal home and so forth. This aint lie bcoz am started to have all these in my mind lately. That is the time when I am ready for someone to give away my life and confess the willingness of sharing each other`s. That is also the time I need my family the most. Ive already made a list of stuff that I should prioritize more than the others and I’ll not let it out here. Just so you know, guess I am mature enough to classify things. Thats it.

PS: Been regularly watching Ustaz Don at Astro ch 114 lately. Alhamdulillah it sparks more love towards our beloved prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and I’m dying to have meet Him in my dreams. InsyaAllah. Till then people. Have a productive Wednesday!

I hardly posed in this, but hey this is where I work! Cheers! ;)

Life so far

Salam Jumaat semua! Its finally Friday people. And yeah, am still working as I still have a week before I quit my job and here I am. Ranting all alone attempting to share my personal experience towards life. Long enough? Haha okay yg tu baru mukadimmah. No la actually I think today gonna be good for me.Why? Coz its Friday people! Hehe.. Oh well actually my family will host a kenduri akikah for our little princess, Farah Hanani on Sunday. Shes so *cuteadorablelovely* girl (Pls refer to above image) So as usual, Ive gotta be ready to take the lead as runner..Plus Ive facial appointment today at 6. What else? Life been good so far. There are plenty things I'd like to share with you people but as far as I know I still owe you an entry on Milford Sound (God, please spare me time to do a write up on this). Think I cud have started by browsing thru the NZ folder so that I cud get the mood to write!

And yeah, am gonna start my internship very soon. Have to prepare physically and mentally on how working life's will somehow 'change' you. And I really hope it does good to me. I'll take positivity as a MUST. I have to change to become better not the other way round. How to deal with that? Okay here's a true story

SOLAT DI AWAL WAKTU

I hardly practice this back in the days. Bcoz I was so busy getting thru and coping with life and guess that were the lamest excuses I cud ever think of. #Uglytruth. I admit memang susah sangat kita nk fulfill tuntutan yang satu ni which says yes,kita memang solat tapi tu lah. Selagi langit kat luar tak gelap, selagi tu tak semayang Asar. Or selagi jam tak tunjuk pukul 4 selagi tu tak Zohor. Tipu kalau benda ni jadik kat aku sorg (kalau betul, that indicates something T____T). The key point is how you look after your prayer that matters. I aint saying that am good, am still learning but the thing is Ive practiced it. And it changes me in certain ways. To be more productive and positive in my daily life's.

It gives a totally new meaning to perform your salah right after the azan .Badan rasa ringan je bila lepas solat and bila nak buat kerja-kerja lain pun tak rasa rushing nak kejar waktu solat yang lain. Takde dah istilah 'Subuh gajah' ke kan. That was when I feel productive to give the best in whatever I do. In fact everyone knows (I supposed by now, they knew) that pergerakan dalam solat yang kita kerjakan sehari-hari tu pun memberi faedah untuk kesihatan tubuh badan kita jugak. So no more excuse to delay your solah after this. Okay sebelum apa2 like Ive mentioned, aku pon bukan perfect baik segala bagai tapi pesanan ikhlas ni adalah sebagai peringatan untuk diri sendiri dan mereka yang sudi membaca. Salam Penghulu Segala Hari! And yes, Happy Weekend everyone.

PS: Counting days for our Beloved Prophet Muhammad SAW birthday. Selawat dan salam ke atas junjungan besar Nabi Muhammad SAW<3
