Assalammualaikum...
As a person who calls himself muslim, and as a human being.. it is with great honour and responsibility that I want to share what I have experienced and learn during the Malam Kemanusiaan Palestine 2009 at Dataran PJ on 31 January 2009.
I actually did not know anything about this event until the morning of 31st January... when I accidently checked my never opened YahooMail... (to those who want to sent me email, please don't sent it to my yahoomail, sent it to silver_rayz89@hotmail.com)
I went there with the hope of learning more about the issue in Palestine, because for once in my life... I honestly and passionately became interested in this issue since the MASSACRE in Gaza earlier this year.
Morning - I didn't join this, but they did a convoy of 100 CARS with stickers "free Palestine". There's even this one Kembara car with a sticker "HAMAS OFFICIAL CAR".. :)
6.00pm- Arrived there by LRT, all alone... not other people from Taylor's... so bored, saw all these people wearing that "scarf" (I don't know what it's called actually... the white clothes you wrapped around your neck with the blocks on it... )
7.30pm- Maghrib prayer in jamaah
8.15pm- Eat and I bought that scarf to get in the mood of everyone else wearing that scarf~!!
9.00pm-Start off with chanting by some group of people lead by an oversea muslim brother, he said
"this is the chant we, the muslim, jewish and christian in UK chanted in our demonstration" . The words are good.. I'm gonna post the video of the chanting soon... can't upload it yet...
Free free Palestin
Gaza Gaza dont you cry
We shall never let you die
1 2 3 4
we dont want your bloody war
5 6 7 8
stop the killing stop the hate
Israel Israel you will see
Palestine will be free
From the rivers to the sea
Palestine will be free
Stop the killing stop the crime
Israel out of Palestine
Occupation is a crime
From Iraq to Palestine!!
9.30pm-Brother Mu'adz... an artist came upstage singing 2 very nice song... 1st song is Amrullah (Baitul Maqdis) a song about the hadith of the prophet that for me is very inspiring!!
“The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) said, ‘A group from my nation will remain adhering to religion victorious by it, and conquering their enemy. Not (the least) harmed by those who desert them, except for the hardship they suffer until the Command of Allah (the Last Day) comes to pass while they are still so.’ They (the Companions) asked, ‘O Messenger of Allah! Where are they? He answered, ‘In Baitul-Maqdis (Jerusalem) and the environs of Baitul-Maqdis.’”
or easier to understand malay translation...
Akan sentiasa ada wujud sekumpulan dari umatku yang terus menegakkan kebenaran dan tegas mendepani musuh. Tidak memudaratkan perjuangan mereka walau dipinggirkan dan dirintangi kesusahan kecuali ujian (Ilahi) sehinggalah datang ketentuan Allah. Mereka akan tetap sedemikian.
Sahabat bertanya “Di mana mereka itu?”
Baginda menjawab “Mereka berada di Baitul Maqdis dan di kawasan sekitarnya”
another song is "Stand Up" which is also great!! During the singing, there were a lot of big palestinian flag waving in the air... it's really great!! Love the waving of the flag by the kids, both cute and very spirited little sons and daughters waving that flag... Allahuakbar!!
You can hear Mu'adz song in Youtube

10.00pm - The forum started... I was waiting for this moment, to learn more about Palestine... the first speaker's speech was very informative, he gave 4 points to counter Israel's false claims that Palestine was theirs.
1) Phrophet Ibrahim a.s (Abraham) was originated from Mesopotamia.
2) Bani Israel (Children of Israel) never really breed and live in Palestine, as their first generation have migrated to Egypt before Bani Israel could establish and breed in Palestine.3) The original people of Palestine was a race called Can'an (i dont know how to spell it actually), these people are there b4 prophet Ibrahim a.s came, and this people are already there b4 the liberation of the jewish in egypt by phrophet Musa a.s (Moses). When the jewish came, they accepted judaism, when romans came, they accepted christianity and when the muslim came, most of them embraces Islam. Which is now we can see muslim, christian and jewish there and all of them are the natives people of Palestine.
4) About 90% of the jewish now in Israel claiming that Palestine is their original land, are actually of a race that came from southern Russia that accepted Judaism as their main religion. In other words, they have no connections culturally and historically whatsoever to Palestine, if they say they want to return to their homeland, then return to Caucasus (their original country not Palestine).#I'm still trying to find this speaker's point on the internet as a clearer references... When I found it, I'll post it in my blog... InsyaAllah. For now you can search the youtube and many non-zionist-propagandists speaker will tell you about who really deserve Palestine.11.00pm- Representative from NGOs, church, non-muslims in Malaysia and even a real Palestinian gave speech. Much love and respect to the non-muslim who manage to see the truth that this is not just a religious problem, it is a humanitarian problem. The speech from the Palestinian brother was really an eye-opener. One of the stories he told was about his own experience treated by the Zionists...
"It was during his highschool exam, he has to pass several (7 if I'm not mistaken) checkpoints to reach his school, and at one of his checkpoint, he was without any reason taken by the Zionists and was placed in a cage which is so small that he cannot stand straight (he has to bend) from the morning until Asar (evening). Then, the Zionist realeased him and told him to kneel down and lick the Zionist's shoes. He said that he did not kneel down and told them "just shoot me".... Alhamdulillah, the brother survived that incident and was able to share with us his and other Palestinian stories that night..."
11.30pm- The program closed with another chanting similiar to earlier one, I chanted as loud as I can this time!! Takbir... Allahuakbar!!
It was certainly a very valuable experience for me to be able for the first time attend such event!! For all those involved in organizing this very beneficial event, including the representatives from the non-muslim organization like the church, chinese and indian community, thank you very much... May Allah bless all of you~
Allow me to share one opinion by the speaker on our role in helping Palestinian:
"I call for each and every one of us to spend a couple of hours per week to fill the airways (the media, internet.. blog... youtube etc.) with words of truth about what is happening in Palestine... spread the truth!!"
For me... very true!! Bcoz we need to counter the false Zionist Propaganda that has twisted the facts and allow this massacre and oppresion to continue in this world!!
Our supplication towards them should be accompanied by our action to help them with all our might...
Boycott~!!
Spread the truth ~!!
Donation~!!
and many other we can do... it's WAJIB (compulsory) brothers and sisters, as a muslim and also as a human being even to the non-muslim.
The most important thing is, do something!!
and
do not do anything to support the Zionists... like buying their products...
We shall be victorious~
Humanity will see the truth~
Peace will be there in Palestine for muslim, christian and jews!!
