Ucapan Penghulu Peserta Sdr. Syukur

Program ini juga bukan hanya bersandar kepada perlunya pemahaman erti bulan Ramadhan dan al-Quran tetapi pada masa yang sama pemahaman ketaqwaan yang baik dalam melahirkan generasi yang matang beritisarikan al-Quran dan as-Sunnah sebagai penerus atau pelapis kepimpinan negara serta peradaban negara pada masa hadapan yang baik.



Para Peserta Mendengar Ceramah Yg Disamapaikan Tn. Hj Lamsin

Ini dapat dilihat hasil didikan terhadap Sultan Muhammad al-Fateh berlunaskan elemen syariah dan berjaya melahirkan pemimpin terbilang dengan ketaqwaan yang tinggi sehingga berjaya menakluk Kota Constantiple pada usia 21 tahun.

Maka, untuk misi ini ia memerlukan kekentalan sifat taqwa kepada ALLAH swt. Ketamdunan Islam lalu ditegakkan atas nilai ketaqwaan yang tinggi sehingga mencapai zaman keemasan pada kurun ke 8 hingga 15 menyaksikan menguasaan pelbagai bidang ilmu dan kuasa ekonomi yang menjadi titik puncak zaman Renaicess di era zaman pertengahan benua Eropah.

Kepimpinan bersifat demikian diperlukan dalam usaha pembinaan negara kita yang tercinta seperti dasar Transformasi 1 Malaysia ke arah keberhasilan berpendapatan tinggi negara dengan mendukung Wawasan 2020 status negara maju yang progresif.

Program ini telah bermula pada minggu pertama Ramadhan iaitu 6 Ogos 2011 yakni melibatkan dua buah sekolah dalam gugusan Daerah Putatan manakala sebuah sekolah lagi dari Daerah Papar.

Sekolah terakhir adalah sekolah SMK (A) Tun Datu Mustapha, pelajar yang menghadiri program ini mencatatkan jumlah yang terbesar iaitu berjumlah 140 orang pelajar yang memberangsangkan dan telah mendapat kerjasama dari pihak sekolah yang bertempat di surau sekolah tersebut.

Program ini perlu diteruskan pada masa akan datang dan perlu diperbanyakkan untuk memberi ruang kepada peserta khususnya para pelajar bagi membentuk belia yang bertaqwa sebagai elemen terpenting dalam menggemudi negara pada masa hadapan disamping menerapkan berkepimpinan dengan nilai berintergriti dan termasuk dalam membina kesedaran dalam diri golongan muda akan kepentingan mempertingkatkan penghayatan terhadap bulan Ramadan dan ibadah puasa serta memahami dan menghayati al-Quran.

Antara kawasan fakir miskin yang terpilih dalam sesi Program Singgah Sahur adalah sekitar Kg. Ulu, Putatan & Kg. Contoh, Putatan.

Kelvin Presiden MBS.

Ini membuktikan inspirasi semangat 1 Malaysia dalam gagasan oleh Y.A.B Perdana Menteri, Dato’ Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak. Semangat inilah yang ditunjukkan & dipratikkan oleh MBS dan ABIM Daerah Putatan serta ABIM Sabah khususnya dalam program tersebut.

a) Putera Aliif Al-Ain Bin Jasni (Exco Ekonomi ABIM Sabah)
b) Basri Bin Abbas (Exco Perancang Strategi ABIM Sabah)
c) Kasmayanah Binti Aco (S/U Agung MPP Kolej Yayasan Sabah)

Moderator : Muhd KamaluYasir (Presiden SISMA ABIM Sabah)


Pada 25 Jun 2011, ABIM Daerah Putatan telah mengadakan Program SEMINAR MEMPERINGATI TOKOH III : ”LUQMAN AL-HAKIM ” bertempat di Dewan Kinabalu, SMK Putatan yang turut di hadiri oleh pelajar-pelajar SMK TANSAU & SMK BAHANG. Surah luqman merupakan surah yang khusus membicarakan keperibadian dan nasihat luqman pada anaknya serta manusia seluruhnya agar kembali pada kekuatan asas dalam pendidikan dan keperibadian.



Ucap utama :
KONSEP KEPERIBADIAN LUQMAN AL-HAKIM

Y.Bhg Sdr. Tn. Hj Mustapha Hj Sakmud
WADAH Sabah

Dan sesungguhnya telah Kami berikan hikmah kepada Lukman, yaitu: "Bersyukurlah kepada Allah. Dan barang siapa yang bersyukur (kepada Allah), maka sesungguhnya ia bersyukur untuk dirinya sendiri; dan barang siapa yang tidak bersyukur, maka sesungguhnya Allah Maha Kaya lagi Maha Terpuji". (Surah Luqman :12 )



Program ini bertujuan bagi memberi semangat dan motivasi dalam bentuk nasihat-nasihat yang berhikmah lontaran bicara seorang tokoh yang berkhudwah hasanah tinggi iaitu Luqman Al-Hakim, yang terpatri dalam Al-quran. Menyeru pelajar dan masyarakat kembali pada fitrah pendidikan yang bertunjangkan kehanifan ilmu.



Era modenisasi menyaksikan golongan remaja menjadi sasaran utama dalam arus budaya hedonisme. Statistik yang telah dikeluarkan oleh Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara amat mengejutkan ramai pihak di Negara ini kerana sebanyak 257000 kes anak luar nikah yang telah berdaftar dilahirkan dalam tempoh empat tahun ini manakala statistik yang dikeluarkan oleh HELWA ABIM Kebangsaan pula, menunjukkan setiap 17 minit anak luar nikah dilahirkan di Negara ini sekaligus memberi cerminan betapa rapuhnya akhlak golongan muda mudi pada masa ini..



Ekoran itu, Abim daerah putatan ingin tampil untuk membantu golongan remaja agar melalui pelaksanaan Program “Seminar Nasihat Luqman Al-Hakim” bagi membantu golongan ini agar mampu membimbing diri dengan nasihat yang berhikmah. Pendekatan yang jitu dan mapan perlu diambil bagi memastikan fenomena ini tidak menjadi barah dalam masyarakat di Negara ini hingga mampu meranap peradaban dunia bangsa.

Mr. Notowiguno said: “In response to the multi-dimensional crisis that struck Indonesia in 1997, a non-profit institution, Pos Keadilan Peduli Ummat (PKPU) was founded on December 10, 1999. On 12 September 2000, PKPU was approved as a charity organisation by Indonesian Social Ministry's decree No. 2000.40405.916.

PKPU learnt that zakah, infaq and sadaqa (Islamic compulsory and voluntary alms) could play a very significant role in Indonesia, a country with the biggest Muslim population in the world. Having gained more and more trust from the people, in two years time after its establishment, PKPU was then appointed as one of National Zakah Collectors by Indonesian Religion Ministry through its decree No. 441 on 8 October 2001. It is one of benefit and hard work to serve the community by trusteeship, sincerely and professionally.”

For the programs, plans and branches PKPU Director gave the following information:

“To actualise its function in the community, PKPU has drawn up various program plans, implemented in its 13 branches throughout Indonesia. This will be described briefly in this profile document. We believe that this document is informative, useful and serve its purpose to give insights on what we are actually doing to help the community in Indonesia to stand up on their own feet and to recover from bankruptcy. To assist them to survive the difficult times, we propose cooperation based on honesty and sincerity. Finally, we also hope that this document would be able to convey our message for the
awareness of the fate of our brothers/sisters who are being put to the test by The Almighty.”

For his part, UNIW General Coordinator Jihangir Isbilir thanked PKPU officials for sponsorship and this kind visit stating: “Indeed, calamities and problems is chance for us to make prayers.
