Assalamualaikum and welcome everybody to Infinitesane Daily, keeping you sane. I promised that I will post this entry 2 weeks ago, but due to the busy schedule or I just forgot, I finally manage to post it right now. It almost Saturday here, but it's still Friday in certain part of the globe. This time I really need to make an explanation about this issue. Because some people have misunderstood about what Jihad is.

For somebody who's not a Muslim (or maybe some Muslim don't really know), Jihad portray violence, armor, fight, killing innocent people and many other negative perception. I will briefly explain to you right here. I'm not gonna tell you in-depth since I'm afraid you're not ready to "swallow" the input I try to give to you. I will just tell you the general idea about Jihad so that you will not see Jihad as a bad thing. Do you know what I'm doing right now is a Jihad?

Jihad derived from the Arabic word: Jahada. means that to do something wholeheartedly to achieve something. So basically, protecting religion, life or dignity is also counts as a Jihad. Spreading the good teaching, like what I did right now is also count as a Jihad. I try my best to convey my kind and warm message to you, I try to urge you to do good things, is also a Jihad. Students, study to be closer to Allah, also a Jihad. The one who died in a war to protect religion is called "syuhada" or in English, a martyr. If a mom died giving birth to a child, she got the reward same as the martyr.

So, did you get the idea of Jihad in Islam? Basically, the concept is to protect. That's why it is forbidden for a Muslim (supposedly) to kill innocent people in a war such as women, children and older people. The concept is to protect. It's beautiful, not Barbaric.

I think that is all for now. I need to get some rest, I almost recover right now.

See you later,
Jumpa lagi,

Assalamualaikum and a very good day to all Infinitesane daily visitor. It's been a while since my last entry, at least an English entry. It is "Techy Tuesday" and accidentally I've flipping around newspaper today and found an article about eBook at Japan.

We realize that amazon had realease kindle as an eBook reader device. It's been used widely across America at least. However, that's not what happen in Japan, a well-developed country. They still prefer the old-school physical book rather than eBook.

On the contrary, in Malaysia, don't bother try to sell kindle widely here. Because most Malaysian (not all) didn't read much. They only read when they have to. Some of them buy book just to keep their shelf occupied and look good.

For me, personally, I also prefer to have a old-school physical book. It is a great feeling when I flip the pages. That cannot be replace by artificial flipping sound by the device. But, it's just a subjective opinion. Maybe other people didn't think the same way as I am.

I think that's all for now, I still trying to get back my "writing touch". I am now really not feeling well. I'm "attacked" by flu, a little fever and a toothache... I hope I can get well as soon as possible...wish me the best...

See you later,
Jumpa lagi

Assalamualaikum dan salam sejahtera buat siapa sahaja yang masih sudi singgah ke blog ini. Sudah terlalu lama blog ini tak dikemaskini. Saya lihat masih ada sedikit pengunjung yang sudi mengunjung blog ini. Hari ini adalah "Mega Monday" dan saya akan berkongsi pendapat saya tentang apa yang kurangnya filem Malaysia.

Sebentar tadi semasa saya sedang menikmati makan malam saya di sebuah gerai, saya terlihat sebuah trailer filem Melayu Malaysia yang bertajuk "Pada Suatu Cinta Dahulu". Sejujurnya, saya tak ingin menonton filem tersebut berdasarkan apa yang dipaparkan di trailer tersebut.



Suatu perkara yang sangat penting untuk menjual sebuah produk (dalam kes ini, filem) adalah "first impression". Bukan nak mengajar David Teo, beliau sangat berjaya, saya pula tak punya apa. Tapi trailer filem beliau kebanyakannya tak menarik. Dalam kes ini, trailer. Bila trailer filem tersebut tak menarik, secara automatik penonton tak akan tertarik atau tertunggu-tunggu untuk filem tersebut keluar. Lihat sahaja trailer filem-filem hollywood. Bukan nak membandingkan epal dan oren, tapi di hollywood, ada pihak yang tugas mereka khas untuk membuat trailer. Di Malaysia kalau anda lihat, kebanyakan trailernya hanya seperti tangkap muat sahaja.

Pernah saya tertonton filem yang biasa-biasa sahaja, tapi kerana trailernya yang meyakinkan, saya tertarik untuk menonton. Walaupun saya rasa tertipu, tapi bukankah tujuan menjadi businessman (secara umum, untuk orang Islam, lain perspektifnya) adalah untuk mengaut keuntungan?

Kesimpulannya, buatlah trailer itu bersungguh-sungguh dan terbaik. Sampai di sini dahulu buat masa ini, Jumpa lagi di masa hadapan.

Jumpa lagi,
See You,
Hasta Luego
