Lama membiarkan blog sepi..berhabuk sikit..maaf ye, hanya halwa telinga begini..saya kepenatan baru lepas pulang dari Kedah..syok nya..syoknya (nada mat kool) .. lagipun lagu ni best.memaparkan bagaimana muslimin di sana berjuang menjaga maruah agama dan diri.. dengan meyakini bahawa tiada apa yang perlu ditakutkan dan dirisaukan apabila merasakan Allah bersama..kadang-kadang bila kita punya kebebasan melakukan ibadah dengan penuh selesa kita jadi lalai kerana tidak riasau akan apa-apa gangguan di tempat kita hingga mengabaikan tanggungjawab seorang Muslim..namun apabila berada di satu tempat yang kita sukar untuk menjalankan ibadah barulah terasa betapa payahnya untuk beribadah seperti solat, menutup aurat, menjaga pergaulan.. di situ jugalah terasa berharganya nikmat kebebasan itu.. saudara-saudara kita di luar sana begitu menghargai nikmat iman dan islam, bagaimana pula kita? adakah bila ditimpa ujian kita menjadi semakin kuat dan tabah atau lemah dan hilang pegangan?
Baru-baru ini saya membaca majalah al-Islam.isu yang menarik mengenai Islam dan apakah kita sedar bagaimana keadaannya saudara-saudara kita di Uighur? Kenalkah kita akan mereka? Ditindas oleh pemerintah hinggakan mencampuri bab agama mereka.. apakah pemerintah itu faham akan Islam hingga meletakkan peraturan yang bukan-bukan? di manakah kebebasan beragama buat etnik Uighur? Mereka menderita di tanah kelahiran sendiri.. sekali lagi penindasan.. di barat dan di timur juga berlaku.. kadangkala apabila terlalu kerap dipampangkan berita mengenai penderitaan mereka kita menjadi biasa.. ala, selalu sangat baca..! selalu sangat tengok gambar macam ni..apa je boleh buat..?! Mudah-mudahan Allah memberi kelembutan pada hati kita agar penindasan umat Islam tetap menjadi sensitiviti kita..
Saya baru sahaja mencari lirik lagu ini..sebelum ni dah dengar tapi tak faham pun..hehe..

I am not afraid to stand alone
If Allah is by my side
I am not afraid to stand alone
Everything is gonna be alright
I am not afraid to stand alone
Going keep my head up high
I am not afraid to stand alone
If Allah is by my side
Everything is going be alright
Going to keep my head up high
Single mother raising her children
And Now she's a Muslim
Started praying and wearing a headscarf
It Was a healing for her heart
Struggling with no one to lean on
But with prayer she would be strong
Had a job but then she was laid off
Got a better education and it paid off
She was called for a job that she dreamed of
Close by, great pay -she was in love --
They brought her in -- told her shes the 1 pick
You got the job, but you gotta lose the outfit"
It's a tough position that you put me in
Cause look at my condition, and my two children
But I'll continue looking for a job again
Cause my faith and my religion I will never bend
I am not afraid to stand alone
I am not afraid to stand alone
If Allah is by my side
I am not afraid to stand alone
Everything is gonna be alright
I am not afraid to stand alone
Going keep my head up high
I am not afraid to stand alone
If Allah is by my side
Everything is going be alright
Going to keep my head up high
Peer pressure, they were insisting
And I was resisting
Some days.... I felt I would give in
Just wanted to fit in
I know.....when I'm praying and fasting'
They be teasing and laughing
So I called to my Lord for the power
For the strength every day, every hour...
one day there's a new Muslim teacher
Single mom and the people respect her
Just seeing.... her strength I get stronger
They can break my will no longer
You don't see me sweatin' when they're jokes cracking
Never see me cussing' with my pants saggin'
I aint never running Yo Im still standing,
sorry I aint jumping on your band wagon, cause...
I am not afraid to stand alone
I am not afraid to stand alone
If Allah is by my side
I am not afraid to stand alone
Everything is gonna be alright
I am not afraid to stand alone
Going keep my head up high
I am not afraid to stand alone
If Allah is by my side
Everything is going be alright
Going to keep my head up high
Now, I'm a tough one, who can bear their blows
The rest play dumb, they don't dare say no
Scared of being shunned, but its clear they know
I aint never gonna run, I aint scared no more....
Man, these sisters be resolute
Never stressed when the rest say they wasn't cute
And the get the respect of the other youth
Come best with the dress yo and thats the truth
These sisters are strong gonna hand it down
So me Im a brotha gotta stand my ground
No fear, Im tough Im the man in town
Peer pressure no more, its my planet now
Others may fall, but Im hold my own
With Allahs help I'll be strong as stone
And I'll be the one to let Al Islam be shown
Cause I am not afraid yo to stand alone
I am not afraid to stand alone
I am not afraid to stand alone
If Allah is by my side
I am not afraid to stand alone
Everything is gonna be alright
I am not afraid to stand alone
Going keep my head up high
I am not afraid to stand alone
If Allah is by my side
Everything is going be alright
Going to keep my head up high
