"Rasulullah s.a.w. sedang duduk bersama Sayidina Abu Bakar As-Siddiq. Datang seorang lelaki lalu memarahi dan mencaci hamun Sayidina Abu Bakar. Sahabat mulia itu diam sahaja, tenang mendengar tohmahan dan seranah yang dihamburkan kepadanya. Melihatkan Sayidina Abu Bakar tidak bertindak apa-apa, lelaki itu menjadi semakin berang.
Suaranya semakin lantang mengherdik dan menengking Sayidina Abu Bakar. Namun, caci dan makian itu tidak juga menyebabkan Sayidina Abu Bakar marah. Beliau duduk diam sahaja di samping Rasulullah s.a.w. Dibiarkan lelaki yang tidak dikenali itu terus galak dengan perangai bodohnya.
Barangkali berasa malu kerana gagal membuatkan Sayidina Abu Bakar bertindak sesuatu, lelaki itu mencaci sekali lagi. Kali ini lebih hebat dan lebih keras. Dituduh, dikeji dan difitnah dengan pelbagai tuduhan serta bahasa yang sungguh kesat, sehingga sahabat mulia itu berasa maruahnya tercabar.
Akhirnya perlahan-lahan Sayidina Abu Bakar bingkas. Melihat Sayidina Abu Bakar bangun, Rasulullah s.a.w. yang sedari tadi berdiam tenang pun ikut bangun. Spontan menarik perhatian Sayidina Abu Bakar, lalu beliau pun bertanya, "Wahai Rasulullah! Adakah kau juga mahu membelaku?"
"Tidak," jawab Rasul sepatah, "Waktu engkau berdiam diri tadi, malaikat berdiri di sampingmu untuk menafikan kata-kata lelaki itu. Tetapi apabila engkau bangkit untuk menjawab caciannya, malaikat pun beredar meninggalkanmu. Sekarang yang datang adalah syaitan".
"Untuk apa syaitan datang?". "Untuk mengapi-apikan lagi suasana yang sudah mulai panas. Untuk melaga-lagakan lagi keretakan yang sudah mulai pecah dan menyerpih".
Allah s.w.t. mengingatkan dalam firmanNya:
"Dan apabila mereka mendengar perkataan yang tidak berfaedah, mereka berpaling daripadanya dan berkata, "bagi kami amal-amal kami dan bagimu amal-amalmu, kesejahteraan atas dirimu, kami tidak ingin bergaul dengan orang-orang yang jahil. (Al-Qassas : 55)

English is A Confusing Language
pening2 cari article utk BEL313, accidently found smtg.. quite interesting[4 me..]
s0o, copy+paste+post kt cni :)
This humourous poem about the the inconsistencies in English grammar and vocabulary has to be one of the most forwarded emails.
While it pokes fun at English and the English, the poem also captures the frustrations a student faces in the process of learning English as a foreign or second language.
Does anyone have the answer to the question: “If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?” Enjoy!
We’ll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes,
But the plural of ox becomes oxen, not oxes.
One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese.
You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice,
Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice.
Then one may be that, and three would be those,
Yet hat in the plural would never be hose,
And the plural of cat is cats, not cose.
We speak of a brother and also of brethren,
But though we say mother, we never say methren.
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
But imagine the feminine: she, shis and shim!
AND IF PEOPLE FROM POLAND ARE CALLED POLES THEN PEOPLE FROM HOLLAND SHOULD BE HOLES AND THE GERMANS, GERMS
If the plural of man is always called men,
Then shouldn’t the plural of pan be called pen?
If I speak of my foot and show you my feet,
And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
Why shouldn’t the plural of booth be called beeth?
Let’s face it – English is a crazy language.
There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger;
neither apple nor pine in pineapple.
English muffins weren’t invented in England.
We take English for granted, but if we explore its paradoxes,
we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square,
and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.
And why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing,
grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham?
Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend.
If you have a bunch of odds and ends
and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?
If teachers taught, why didn’t preachers praught?
If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?
Sometimes I think all the folks who grew up speaking English
should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane.
In what other language do people recite at a play and play at a recital?
We ship by truck but send cargo by ship.
We have noses that run and feet that smell.
We park in a driveway and drive in a parkway.
And how can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same,
while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?
You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language
in which your house can burn up as it burns
down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out,
and in which an alarm goes off by going on.
And, in closing, if Father is Pop, how come Mother’s not Mop?
huuuuu.. tolong la jmp article yg sesuai utk BEL313.. art with fallacies!!!
ni asik tjumpe bnd x bkaitn je.. huhu
tp, thank God, lecturer extended the deadline.. :)
