Notice:
1. Strictly for Muslim reader. I not playing any racist issue here, just this is a latest problem related to us. For non Muslim, you will find this posting relatively boring. So, lebih baik jangan baca…but again, your pc, your internet line, your hand… your own choice…suka hati kau lah.
2. Kena berfikir, kalau rasa malas… tak perlu baca.
Tahniah kepada kerajaan yang mengambil 1st step untuk mengurangkan Freedom of Speech yang membabi buta. Aku dah tulis article ni lama, aku rasa sekarang time paling cantik untuk post.
Many believe blogging never as popular as now. Not just blogging as blogspot or wordpress, but personal page like Myspace, Friendsters, Multiply and many more. Blogger.com now is the most popular visited site beside search engine.
With the popularity of blog, muncul lah another term Celebrity Blogger. Simply means, blog owner yang blog dia popular dan ada pengikut sendiri. That person become famous simply because of his/her blog. Jeffooi, Kenny Sia, Liew CF, just to name a few. They are professional blogger, maksudnya memang kerja mereka full time blogging. Mereka dapat duit daripada laman blog mereka, how? I know in theory but simply have no idea how to achieve that.
Names yang aku beri sebagai contoh adalah blogger non Muslim dan mereka pun tidak menjadikan agama sebagai bahan utama untuk menulis. There are a fews blogger glamour yang beragama Islam.
What the hell this scenario related to Islam?
When they become celebrity and have they own follower, means there are someone that treat them as their idol. Pembaca mereka sanjung apa sahaja yang mereka lakukan. Sama seperti artis, pemimpin dan tokoh-tokoh masyarakat yang lain. But for artist and other celebrities, media yang glamorkan mereka. So, sort like everybody know what they doing and even ulama will comment and advise if they did anything against Islam rule. But for blogger, nobody monitor their writing and most importantly nobody powerful enough to advise or tegur mereka.
Some, they not just blog about current issue, politic or their interest but also their life style. Their daily life, and they try to make as cool as possible. Mabuk sana, minum arak sini, main perempuan, tipu orang… all sort of negative thing la. Then, if they comment current issue pun, without hesitate they will kutuk all parties sesuka hati including ulama or ustaz. Freedom of speech, so mereka will freely express their voice. And of cause their follower will agree and admire their idea. Sedikit sebanyak these blogger menyumbang kepada pemikiran masyarakat kita. Most of these blogger are very knowledgeable and some I bravely said genius. Their view and comments sememangnya menarik, logic but ‘bahaya’.
Maybe this problem not in critical stage yet since just few thousands reader read blog everyday. But experts believe the number will only increase due to rapid development in blogging world. Government in particularly Jabatan Agama Islam must start looking at this scenario sekarang and prepare something to handle it in the future.
For those who think it is not very much a problem yet, and I just being paranoid, please read these blog entries:
Rape Me Because I Wear Shorts Skirt – The Boinq
I’m an apostate or a Muslim – The Boinq
Gay and Lesbian Crash Harussani House – Malay Male
They are a lot more blogs yang ‘menarik’ tapi sedikit ‘bahaya’. But these 2 blog owner aku rasa cool enough to smile with this posting. They will not take it personally. For Sharina and Amir, please understand… I have nothing against you guys. You guys are very cool in your own unique way. Aku pun suka baca blog kau untuk tersenyum, ketawa sambil berfikir. I not hoping government will arrest you or what. It just as a Muslim, or as you said orthodox, conservative Muslim; I think it is my responsibility to highlight this scenario.
Happy blogging…!
P/S: Seperti dilaporkan dalam Metro selalu, terdapat banyak juga blog yang menggalakkan ajaran sesat di Internet.
