Jihad bukan perang suci,Islam bukan pembunuhan.

   Tajuk di atas aku ambil dari lirik lagu Words I never said yang dinyanyikan oleh Lupe Fiasco feat Skylar Grey.  Hehehe,aku sengaja terjemahkan dari bahasa Inggeris pergi ke bahasa Malaysia kerana itu adalah bahagian aku paling suka dengar. Hari ni mau dekat 10x aku dengar lagu yang membuatkan aku bangga menjadi orang Islam. "Jihad is not a holy war...murdering is not Islam..." dimana ayat ini sangat betul. Orang amerika yang bukan beragama Islam selalu menganggap asal dengar perkataan JIHAD maknanya mesti perang. Excuse me,Jihad bukan maksudnya "perang". Jihad adalah kesungguhan. Kosa kata Jihad ni boleh digunakan secara meluas seperti contoh menuntut ilmu(jihad menuntut ilmu).  Kenapa aku guna contoh menuntut ilmu? Sebab dalam Islam menuntut ilmu dapat pahala. Islam pula bukanlah maksudnya pembunuhan. Islam dari bahasa Arab maksudnya harmoni,sejahtera dan dirujuk dari istilah adalah menyerah diri kepada Pencipta yang maha berkuasa dan mentauhidkannya dengan penuh keyakinan.

   Aku sebenarnya nak ceritakan dari mana aku tahu lagu ini tapi takpalah,aku mesti explain kenapa aku suka bahagian lirik itu.

   Aku baru tahu lagu ni dari blog serius oleh obefiend. Aku memang minat baca blog ni,lepas baca kosmo online,aku akan baca blog serius. Bila aku tengok-tengok entry mana yang paling best untuk dibaca,aku nampak video ni. Jadi tanpa membuang masa aku pergi Youtube dan mencari lirik video lagu ini. Bila aku baca lirik ni,aku terus suka dengan lagu ni. Bagi aku,ini bukan sahaja mewakili orang muslim tapi secara terang-terang mengutuk Amerika.Iyalah Amerika ni memang pelik sikit,mereka berabis nak berjuang berlawan dengan pengganas konon tapi negara sendiri tak terjaga. Akhirnya mengalami kemelesetan ekonomi yang serius,masalah sosial semakin teruk dan orang miskin bertambah miskin manakala orang kaya bertambah kaya. Sistem pendidikan?? Hmm,talk to the hand. Tapi Amerika mempunyai universiti-universiti yang berprestij macam Harvard,Yale dan banyak lagi. Sungguh ironik bagi aku sebenarnya apabila sistem pendidikan sekolah lemah tapi sistem pendidikan universiti kuat. Public Health system? Kalah dari britain yang memang bagus healthcare system mereka. Ok,cukup.

  Macam agak melencong pula perenggan atas tadi.  Tapi tak apa,memang ni maksud lagu "words I never said".

  Di bawah ni adalah music video Lupe Fiasco beserta dengan lirik di bawah sekali. Fahamkan maksudnya kerana Lupe Fiasco bercakap benda betul. Dia pernah menggelar Presiden Obama sebagai pengganas dan tindakan itu sangat berani apatah lagi bagi seorang muslim seperti dia.

"Words I Never Said"
(feat. Skylar Grey)

[Skylar Grey]
It’s so loud Inside my head
With words that I should have said!
As I drown in my regrets
I can’t take back the words I never said
I can’t take back the words I never said

[Lupe Fiasco]
I really think the war on terror is a bunch of bullshit
Just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets
How much money does it take to really make a full clip
9/11 building 7 did they really pull it
Uhh, And a bunch of other cover ups
Your childs future was the first to go with budget cuts
If you think that hurts then, wait here comes the uppercut
The school was garbage in the first place, that's on the up and up
Keep you at the bottom but tease you with the uppercrust
You get it then they move it so you never keeping up enough
If you turn on TV all you see’s a bunch of “what the fucks”
Dude is dating so and so blabbering bout such and such
And that ain't Jersey Shore, homie that's the news
And these the same people that supposed to be telling us the truth
Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist
Gaza strip was getting bombed, Obama didn’t say shit
That's why I ain't vote for him, next one either
I’ma part of the problem, my problem is I’m peaceful
And I believe in the people.

[Skylar Grey]
It’s so loud inside my head
With words that I should have said!
As I drown in my regrets
I can’t take back the words I never said
I can’t take back the words I never said

[Lupe Fiasco - Verse 2]
Now you can say it ain't our fault if we never heard it
But if we know better than we probably deserve it
Jihad is not a holy war, wheres that in the worship?
Murdering is not Islam!
And you are not observant
And you are not a muslim
Israel don’t take my side cause look how far you’ve pushed them
Walk with me into the ghetto, this where all the Kush went
Complain about the liquor store but what you drinking liquor for?
Complain about the gloom but when’d you pick a broom up?
Just listening to Pac ain't gone make it stop
A rebel in your thoughts, ain't gon make it halt
If you don’t become an actor you’ll never be a factor
Pills with million side effects
Take em when the pains felt
Wash them down with Diet soda!
Killin off your brain cells
Crooked banks around the World
Would gladly give a loan today
So if you ever miss a payment
They can take your home away!

[Skylar Grey]
It’s so loud inside my head
With words that I should have said!
As I drown in my regrets
I can’t take back the words I never said, never said
I can’t take back the words I never said

[Lupe Fiasco - Verse 3]
I think that all the silence is worse than all the violence
Fear is such a weak emotion that's why I despise it
We scared of almost everything, afraid to even tell the truth
So scared of what you think of me, I’m scared of even telling you
Sometimes I’m like the only person I feel safe to tell it to
I’m locked inside a cell in me, I know that there’s a jail in you
Consider this your bailing out, so take a breath, inhale a few
My screams is finally getting free, my thoughts is finally yelling through

[Skylar Grey]
It’s so loud Inside my head
With words that I should have said!
As I drown in my regrets
I can’t take back the words I never said
