One in a million, A Story about a Bangladeshi Taxi Driver

Saturday, January 16th, 2010

As a immigrant, a minority in the New York city does not change a taxi driver from Banglasdesh, Mohammad Mukal Asadujjaman to become an unhonest man.

In a city where money is everything, where people only think for them self, there are still a few honest man arround.

Some people even called them stupid just because they are honest people.

And one of the honest people is Mohammad Mukal Asadujjaman.

What did he do? That his story make a headline in many media news like in BBC and Foxnews.

What he did is actually a very simple thing, that maybe a very common thing to do in his origin country, but because he did it in New York city, suddenly it make a headline.

He only returned money that left over in the back seat of his taxi.

Something that is very common in Bangladesh, but a very rare thing in New York city.

As a medical student, and as a taxi driver, he is broke. If he did not return the money, he can have more time for study and less time in the street.

But no, he choose to return the money, and refused the thanks you reward.

What an honest man.

And he is a muslim.

What we need is good muslim like Mohammad Mukal Asadujjaman.

May Allah bless you, always.

They say that Muslims are bad people

Monday, September 17th, 2007

When browsing the web, I run across many forums and websites that full of hatred towards Islam and Muslim.

This is one of the website that full hatred towards Muslims, thereligionofpeace.com. They have more hatred in their heart than any other people that I know. Forget the Nazi’s, they look like kindergarten kids compare to this hateful people. (Warning, please be prepare when you about to enter that hateful website).

They say that Muslims are bad people, and Islam is not a good religion.

One of the example they gave is that terrorist attack in several places in Indonesia (including Bali) .

This is my logic.

Based on wikipedia that there are more than 222 million Muslims in Indonesia (1988).

Less than 100 or maybe less than 1000 Muslims in Indonesia going nuts and start blow things up.

And they start screaming that Muslims are bad people? And Islam is not a good religion?

What happen with the rest of the Muslim in Indonesia? They are still more than 222 millions Muslims in Indonesia that live their normal live just like any other people in any countries? They don’t blow things up?

Doesn’t that count?

If I can found more than thousands white racist in USA, with the same logic as they use, can I say that all white people in America are racist?

Knock, knock

Is there any brain in your head?

There are many, many Muslims are against terrorism. Here are some of the voices from Muslims that against terrorism.

Warning: Excessive thinking may damage your brain.

Does muslim allowed to sing?

Saturday, August 18th, 2007

The title of this post may be funny, why, does somebody else says that muslim not allowed to sing?

This blog not about muslim or Islam, but when someone ask me about this in one of internet forum, it hit me.

Why someone else saying that singing is not allowed in Islam? They also bring a few hadiths to prove it.

After a few questions and search in google, I found out that there are muslim that believe that singing is not allowed, but there are others who believe that singing is allowed.

This is a good reading about singing in Islam, specially the last one about the word ‘Haram’.

We do have differences in Islam, just like Syah and Sunni, Muhammadiyah and NU. But after all, we all Muslim, we all brothers.
