Dewasa ini, kes pembuangan bayi yang semakin menjadi-jadi amat membimbangkan ibarat cendawan yang tumbuh selepas hujan . Berdasarkan statistik yang diperolehi daripada Jabatan Kebajkan Masyarakat (JKM), sebanyak 50 kes pembuangan bayi dicatatkan sepanjang Januari hingga September 2008. Lebih menyedihkan lagi, permasalahan pembuangan bayi semakin menjadi-jadi malahan majoritinya ia membabitkan pasangan Melayu yang mencatatkan jumlah sebanyak 36 kes. Terdapat beberapa faktor yang mengundang kepada berlakunya permasalah ini, oleh itu, kami beranggapan hukuman berat harus dilaksanakan bagi membendung gejala ini.
Seperti yang kita sedia maklum,Islam telah menetapkan garis panduan dalam mengawal penganutnya dari terpesong ke jalan yang dimurkai oleh Allah. Peraturan yang ditetapkan sudah cukup untuk menghalang seseorang itu untuk melakukan sesuatu yang boleh merosakkan akidah serta keturunan umat manusia itu sendiri. Hukuman hudud adalah hukuman yang sangat setimpal bagi membalas segala perbuatan keji lagi mungkar yang dilakukan oleh sesetengah manusia yang buta akan ilmu agama. Mereka beranggapan bahawa hukuman yang ditetapkan oleh hukum syarak adalah tidak releven dan lapuk dek arus kemodenan.
Hukum hudud adalah satu hukuman yang ditetapkan oleh Allah bagi menaikkan kegerunan untuk pelaku maksiat agar menjauhi perbuatan zina. Mengikut surah An-Nur ayat 2 yang bermaksud “perempuan dan lelaki yang berzina,hendaklah kamu sebat tiap-tiap seorang dari keduanya seratus kali sebat;dan janganlah kamu dipengaruhi oleh perasan belas kasihan terhadap keduanya dalam menjalan hukum agama Allah, jika benar kamu beriman kepada Allah dan hari akhirat; dan hendaklah disaksikan hukuman seksa yang dikenakan kepada mereka itu oleh sekumpulan orang-orang yang beriman. Maka, jelaslah disini bahawa Allah amat melarang perbuatan zina kerana ianya merosakkan masyarakat. Jadi, sebagai umat islam kita seharusnya kembali kepada paksi-paksi agama kita.
Dalam pada masa yang sama, pihak-pihak yang berwajib haruslah memainkan peranan bagi membendung permasalahan ini daripada terus berlaku. Antara tindakan yang boleh dilakukan adalah seperti mengawal pusat hiburan, memperkatatkan peraturan iklan yang menghairahkan, mewajibkan pelajar Islam memakai tudung, mengawal pergaulan bebas, kempen menutup aurat, dan kempen jauhi zina. Selain itu, penekanan dalam aspek pendidikan juga harus dititik beratkan dan pembendungan penyebaran media negatif seperti bahan pornografi harus dipertingkatkan.
Kesimpulannya, hukuman yang sedia ada haruslah diperketatkan lagi agar ianya menjadi kegerunan kepada masyarakat sekaligus gejala pembuangan bayi dapat dibendung. Ketua Polis Negara, Tan Sri Musa Hassan pernah menyarankan bapa kepada bayi yang dibuang diseret ke muka pengadilan dan menerima hukuman sama sepertimana wanita terbabit. Penzina juga harus menerima balasan yang setimpal kerana membuang anugerah tuhan yang amat bernilai hanya untuk menutup malu mereka tanpa memikirkan perbuatan yang mereka lakukan menghina agama, bangsa dan negara .

Saidatina Aisha r.a
Aisha Binti Abu Bakar Al-Siddiq was born in Mecca in 614 CE to Umm Ruman and Abu Bakar Al-Siddiq. Aisha was the third, youngest and favorite wife of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Most accounts report that Aisha was six years old at the time of her marriage and nine when the marriage was consummated. Although the bridal age of Aisha sometimes draws criticism, child marriages in 7th century Arabia were culturally and morally acceptable.
Aisha was reported to have been very beautiful. In fact, she was also called as “al-humaira” which means pinky bright, due to her bright colored skin. However, it is her piety, intelligence and remarkable memory that make her a notable figure in Islamic history. She absorbed vast religious knowledge from the Prophet (peace be upon him) including memorizing the entire Qur'an. She also witnessed a lot of the early histories of Islam, and she preserved the details of those events, as well as the details of the private and public life of Muhammad (peace be upon him) by narrating more than two thousand hadith.
Aisha was only 18 when the Prophet (peace be upon him) passed away, but she was already regarded as a religious scholar. Over the next four decades, until her own death, Muslims consulted Aisha for her extensive understanding of Qur'an, Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh), Islamic teachings and traditions (Sunnah). She helped in educating Islamic scholars and took custody of some orphans to raise them in Islam. Aisha r.a has contributed a lot during those days. Besides being a reference for her extensive understanding of Quran, people of those days especially women always sought for her advice in many things. It is also reported that she joined the Prophet (peace be upon Him) in many wars against the enemy to protect Islam.
Aisha passed away in 678 at the age of 65. Her scholarly contributions to Islam, as well as her pious example, have earned her special status among the “Mothers of the Believers,” a term of honor given to all the wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him).

The Everlasting Peace of Taiping
Taiping is a town located in the northern area in Perak. It is also called ‘the rain town’ as it receives the highest amount of rain compared to other towns in Malaysia. Taiping has been developed since 1874 with the concept of Traditional Iron Grid. The name Taiping means “the everlasting peace” was taken after the word Tai Peng. Ages ago, Taiping is known as Klian Pauh. The town was developed by a Malay man named Long Jaafar. He opened a tin dredge in Larut. The name was changed to Taiping after the Larut War in 1874. Taiping used to be the main city in Perak and the oldest city in Malaysia. Thus, this town has been developed much earlier than we ever thought.

Over the years, it has served as various establishments including as Larut Matang administrative centre, as a court for the prosecution of Dato Maharaja Lela and Dato Sagor for the killing of J.W.W Birch, the first teacher’s training college, the first national school, Japanese headquarters, and presently as the Kota Ngah Ibrahim Historical Complex.

tHiS anD tHaT
Alright, for starters let me introduce myself as the writer for this web log. My name is Siti Aishah Hasibuan binti Muhammad Shahrumi. I was born and raised in Perak. Currently, I am studying at
To be honest, when it comes to a part when I have to write a little description about myself or anything related to me, I am lost. Of course, I have got something to mention, but then, too much to mention here.
Let us just imagine myself as someone who is outspoken yet decent, brave yet cautious, ambitious yet humble, rebellious but can be agreeable at times, a person of many personalities as I can fit myself to many different situations. I always have the ability to surprise myself and other people around, a good entertainer, a fast learner and I always know how to motivate myself. Sounds perfect right? I know there is no way on earth a person can be this perfect. But in this post, I am (or at least I believe so)
This web log is created in the first place for assignment purposes. Hence, the posts will be more on the educational kind of things (sounds a bit boring, I know) But do not worry folks. I will change or add new fun applications in this web log from time to time so that there will always be something new to look at. Besides, I will not kill the readers with stressful texts. I will keep my laid back style of writing although the topics are so stressful. You are welcome to post suggestions or comments regarding my posts or this web log. However, just bear this in mind, the rules for postings are simple: mutual respect and clean language. So, do not hesitate to be my follower, let us share so many information in so little time.
Happy reading!! :)
