Tumblr: Celoteh Malam #4

-
For these last couple of days, I basically bombarder my posts by linking Mr. Nouman Ali Khan’s videos. Haha just can’t help it because I find it interesting, intriguing, and responding to my queries this whole time. Often, I feel like it directly answering my questions or discussions I had recently with a friend. I would not say that I completely agree with him in every matters, but mostly I do. He tried to explain issues in a rationale and fair manner without putting rationality as the ultimate truth (you know what I mean?), unlike prescriptive khutbah (sermon) that I used to listen when I was a kid. Honestly, that kind of prescriptive speech, I would say, also contributed to the distance I had been taking from learning Islam. It simply didn’t satisfy me.
IMHO, we need to transform our learning process into more participatory, treat kids as an active learner, and avoid taqlid (follow things unquestionably). I believe Allah’s messages in the Qur’an are not for nothing, they must be revealed for certain reasonings (thus, I believe critical thinking is also encouraged). For me, Allah is The Greatest teacher who teaches us throughout experiences in our lives. Same core modules, different teaching method, different point of view which then resulting in different lessons learned (different perspective >> different takeaways).
Therefore, for every teaching taught, we need to have filter and considerations with Allah still as the ultimate truth. That’s our anchor while searching: faith that Allah is exist. No other God, but Allah, the One and Only. This implies that we should employ “Islamic worldview” as Allah revealed in the Qur’an and Rasulullah exemplify in the Hadith to keep us in the right path. Hopefully, Allah will guide us and not let us being astray..

ASP: Akuntansi Masjid vs Gereja

Grateful for Every Little Thing

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Makers of 'vegan' tiramisu that killed Italian woman, 20, with severe dairy allergies are set to go on trial for manslaughter | Daily Mail Online This morning, I read this article. And once again, I realise how ingrateful we can be most of the time. The "little" things that we take for granted, i.e., in this case, not having any allergic reaction to specific ingredients or medicines. How easy and comfortable for me to be able to go to any restaurant and order any (halal) things that I like, without needing any extra precaution to safeguard my LIFE. A (may seem to be simple) thing for most of us, milk and cheese, can be deadly for someone else. Alhamdulillah yaa Rabbi, for every single blessing You have been bestowing upon me. Alhamdulillah bini'mati taatimmusshalihaat. Help us to remember all the blessings, yaa Rabbi.. help us to be among Your grateful servants. -- On a side note, it also makes me realise how big of a deal to ensure food saf...

Terdapat dua model umum pelaporan keuangan yaitu Anglo- American Model atau Anglo- Saxon Model dan Continental Model. Anglo- Saxon Model lebih cenderung didominasi oleh peran profesi akuntansi, sedangkan peran pemerintah terbatas. Selain itu juga menekankan pada kepentingan pasar modal dan penyajian yang jujur, wajar, dan dapat diaudit. Kebalikannya, model continental lebih cenderung didominasi oleh peran pemeran dan peran profesi akuntansi cukup terbatas. Anglo- American Model United Kingdom Sebelum tahun 1981, Companies Act focus pada disclosure.
