She has been a widow for 11years now with 2 children studying in local university. Her husband is still around but they never officially divorce (according to her, husband is a educated and good man but not sure why sudden change of attitude and she still regard her husband highly and even told her children that their father is a great man). She is not really in good condition as she suffering from diabetes and high blood pressure & she didnt take medicine for 1 month due to financial difficulties. Apart form that, she is suffering from gout, stress & waist pain. Doctor advise her to take supplement & some equipment like Elken colustrum ig6 vege cap, Elken spirulina, insulin, Needles, alcohol, cottons, blood tester and others medicine for stress, migraine & joint pain.
When we met her yesterday, she hasn't took any food for 3 days because she do not have money and yet she have to support her 2 children in University. She order fried rice when we invite her to eat with us but she just ate 3-4 spoon and the rest she took home for dinner and for breakfast too. Although her elder son just obtain PTPTN and just recently receiving RM1,100 (if not mistaken) for his daily expenses and study fees but her elder son put the money into her drawer without her realizing. She only realize it when her son call her from his University that he has put RM1,000 for her to use and medication.
KAK M : Along nak makan apa kalau semua duit Along bagi kat mak?
Along : Takpe lah Mak, Along boleh puasa sebab Mak lebih memerlukan duit tu. Pandai pandai lah Along cari makan nanti yang penting Mak ada duit utk bagi kat adik di Universiti dan untuk perbelanjaan rumah.
I can saw KAK M breaking down in fronts of my eyes and without me realizing, my tears drop out too after hearing this. Even without any financial support from husband and working part time as her health doesnt permit her to work long hour, she managed to get her 2 children to University. She also has a debt of RM13,000 where she borrow from friend, neighbours and relatives to support her children until University throughout this 11years.
In the meantime, she didnt pay 4 month rental and is now facing the possibility of being homeless and no one to rely too. She intend to sell off all the electrical equipment & furniture to raise fund to start her very own small business & to finance her 2 children study but again HOW MUCH SHE CAN GET FOR SELLING THOSE ITEMS?
Again, I personally hate to say this but it has become a norm of a needy person like KAK M applying to religious department and Lembaga Zakat Selangor since the last 2 years but but been rejected because of incomplete documentation BUT THE PROBLEM IS WHEN THE TIME SHE SUBMIT HER APPLICATION, THE OFFICER TOLD HER EVERYTHING IS IN ORDER!!! A more funnier is that sometime different officer will give her different kind of form and document required so now which is which and what took them so long?
At one point, she really come to the extend of committing suicide not because of her problem but to WAKE ALL THE RELIGIOUS DEPT & ESPECIALLY LEMBAGA ZAKAT UP that when people like her is going there to ask for help that mean they really need it urgently and LEMBAGA ZAKAT IS THEIR LAST HOPE. She has wrote her will and statement and plan to jump from her flat where is staying so other people will get the attention of LZS and do not need to suffer like her.
(illustration purpose)WHAT ARE YOU, LEMBAGA ZAKAT SELANGOR IS DOING??? YOU ARE ANSWERABLE TO ALLAH IN AKHIRAT FOR YOUR FAILURE TO CARRIED OUT YOUR DUTY TO HELP!!!

p/s On her request, we do not put up her real name and photo for some personal reason. Jazakallah Khairan & May Allah bless everyone who help her even with a simple doa to Allah to make thing easy for Kak M.
In my opinion..i see there are so many doubt n weaknesses in this K.M case..the furnuture,her educated husband, her diabetes (showing poor diet or can be unhealty food), her poor intention of commiting suicide (that showing how poor her iman is).. thinking rasionally, there are so many point to ponder upon. Anyway the help could help her to better condition. but dont forget a quote saying "if we give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime." May anybody can help to bring or mybe to teach for religious class also. There are so many nikmat when being in poor condition, and not many people can realize that. Wallahualam.
ReplyDeletequoted: There are so many nikmat when being in poor condition, and not many people can realize that.
Deletecan you say that to those people who are poor and didn't it for 3 days? think.
what i meant, is eat.
Deletetak boleh gak cakap macam tu.. kan dia ni revert mungkin iman memang tak kuat.. kalau dia memang layak dapat zakat kembalikanlah hak tersebut.. apa kita nak jawab kalau dia terpesong akidah? mana lagi berat banding bagi duit zakat? yang boleh bantu berilah bantuan, biar Allah yang tentukan hal lain2.. :)
ReplyDeleteYang menentukan kekuatan iman is hak Allah swt dan bukanlah manusia kerana Allah Maha Mengetahui. Bantulah apa yang boleh dan berikanlah apa yang boleh kita mampu baik dari segi duit, sokongan, doa ataupun berkongsi mengenai nasibnya agar lebih banyak orang menolognya.
ReplyDeleteHi first anonymous poster,
ReplyDeleteWe have not been stress test by Allah and thus we can say whatever we want. She has gone thru quite enough trials and tribulations and anyone in the same situation might already have falter.
As a muslim, it is not in our place to judge one's level of iman as that is only for Allah. What we should do is what we can to help this lady to ease her burden. Critisizing won't do any good at all.
Hurrmmm..Jika aku orang kaya di seluruh dunia, akan aku dermakan hartaku kepada engkau.Tapi apa boleh buat, aku pun kurang bkemampuan. :(
ReplyDeletebagi setakat yg mampu. klau dapat sedekah seringgit pon ok.
Deletekalau seribu org sedekah seringgit tak ker dah jadi seribu ringgit.
I would like to donate some food item to Kak M. At the same time i suggest someone to take her to the government clinic. They give health attention for free. If condition is bad can go to government hospital. I was in a extremely poor financial state once, and I don't even have enough money to pay for the birth of my child, but alhamdulillah, the government provides health treatment for free or for so much lesser. Relying on LZS is not the only solution.
ReplyDeleteWe must help Kak M to first get some means of sustaining her health before finding more means to help her find some sustenance for her livelihood. Perhaps we can help her get on some work from home under jabatan wanita & kebajikan masyarakat.
semoga allah mudahkan segala urusan. saya akan cuba fikirkan apa yang boleh saya bantu..
ReplyDeleteGive what we can, as we are doing good without any doubt.Even giving her some guidance is worth it.May allah bless n guide us all through this.
ReplyDeleteFirdaus Wong Wai Hung what is ur cell no??how to text u later??
ReplyDeleteok2 sorry i wasn't go through the text fully...no need to answer my previous post...

Insyaallah, at the very least, I will put an effort to spread the word. Allow me the permission to link and share your blog on my profile in Facebook.

setiap org ade ujian n dugaan dlm idup. kita sbg manusia tidak layak untuk menghukum.
ReplyDeletesehebat mane pn ilmu kita or kalo kite rs kite ni sgt bk n kuat iman, xsure lg msk syurga. ntah2 last2 kite akan jd lbh truk dr kak M nauzubillah (minta di jauhkan). ntah2 kak M yg kite ckp lemah iman ni nnti die di beri petunjuk oleh Allah, Allah angkat darjat die jd wanita plg beriman, sape tau???alhamdulillah (segala puji bagi Allah).Allah berkuasa ke ats setiap sesuatu.
kak M..pada saya seorang yang sgt bertuah coz di pilih Allah tuk di uji coz ape yg sy tau itulah tanda kasih syg Allah pda hamba-Nya. hanya hamba Allah yang terpilih saje akan di beri ujian. namun Allah tidak membebankan hamba-nya dengan sesuatu di luar kemampuanya.jadi sape kate kak M xkuat?? mungkin kak M belum lg jmpa kekuatannya n insyaAllah akan jd kuat suatu ari nnti dengan segala ujian yang die hadapi. amiin..
dari segi rohani kitalah yang bertanggungjawab tuk bimbing die supaya jd lebih kuat iman die n dengan iman yg kuat die akan mampu harungi segalanya.
dari segi fizikal mungkin kita boleh membantu ape yg mampu. sesungguhnya rezeki yang Allah bg kt kite xkn berkurang bile kite bersedekah kpd yg memrlukan bahkan makin bertambah tnpa kite sedari..insyaAllah.
mungkin juga kita bleh ajar die cara berdikari untuk die menjaga diri sendiri di smping bntu die coz kite xselamanya dpt bantu die n dpt bersama die. bantulah die tuk berdikari supaya kalo xde kite lps ni die xkan hilang pedoman n mampu harungi kehidupannya sendiri.
salam sayang dari saya buat mereka yg sedang bersedih moga mereka berbahagia..
