REBORN

Assalamualaikum…

Many years have been  passed through, and  I have been so silent these lately by writing nothing. Yet, here I am, back  to the world!!  sharing  my thoughts which is incredibly too complicated to be kept and hidden by myself. According to me, writing is like drawing every details of imaginations, showing what people can  not see, and  making a deaf can listen carefully. What a magical instrument, right ?

By writing, we can create an eternal life. How can it be ?

Pramoedya Ananta Toer has said “Orang boleh pandai setinggi langit, tapi selama ia tidak menulis, ia akan hilang di dalam masyarakat dan dari sejarah. Menulis adalah bekerja untuk keabadian.” (A person could be a smart as high as the sky, but as long as he is not writing, he will be lost in the society and from history. Writing is working for an eternity.)

I believe with this golden ideology, here I give you a simple example, how will the world of medicine growing so fast if Ibn Sina or Avicenna did not write The Book of Healing and The Canon of Medicine, the first medical knowledge in the world ?  Many researchs about medicine then finally grow so fast. The basic principles of medicine which is written in Ibn Sina’s book are still used to cure the people until now, hunderds years after He passed away, and it is still used and developed. It proves how eternal writing is. How strong it is, till make Ibn Sina never sink so far beneath the time. So, is there any reason  to stop writing ? Here I am, Silvia Handika, reborn, to write, again.

By writing, we share. There will be nothing derogate, if we share our knowledge. Allah has commanded us, written in Surah Al Alaq 96: 1-5, who said how important reading and writing.  

اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ

خَلَقَ الإنْسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ

اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الأكْرَمُ

الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ

عَلَّمَ الإنْسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ

“Read in the name of your Lord Who created. He created man from a clot. Read and your Lord is Most Honorable, Who taught (to write) with the pen. Taught man what he knew not.” (Al Alaq 96: 1-5)

Al Alaq 1-5 shows us how important to read and write is, how important to gain knowledges, and as a moslem, we must share the knowledges we have, one of them is by writing and sharing.

So guys, let’s we write, let’s we share, let’s we learn together, to be a better one, to be a better moslem, I hope this little article, may motivate myself to continue writing, motivate all the readers to spread knowledges and sciences, motivate all the writers not to stop writing, and hopefully there is something usefull you may get. Thankyou for visiting my blog. May Allah bless us. Aamiin Ya Rab. (slv)
