The world has been rocked with a breaking news about Swine Flu virus. The vector has been spreading over Mexico and the States currently. This brought the whole world in full blast to prevent the outbreak of the flu epidemic. In Christchurch itself, there are four people identified to have been coming back from the States and are suspected to have been infected by the virus since there were a few shcool kids on the same plane with them to Christchurch from LA. New Zealand is one of the countries that is classified to be in danger. Probably, there are quite number of people who came into NZ have just been in the North America in last few weeks when the Swine Flu virus started to spread.
I am still thinking about the probability that the outbreak may be one of the disasters that Allah wants to teach all of the people on this Earth. With the increase of social problems all over the globe, we do not realize that many crises occurred are attributed to our attitudes that take Allah's reminders for granted. If Allah wants to give us a lesson, it's either He shows it directly to ourselves or by giving the troubles to other people and it is our responsibility to learn from what has happened to the people. Nonetheless, we're too much close to Satan instead of Allah, thus, the whisper of Satan penetrates deeper into our cochleas, and when Satan is already in our nerves, we begin to be controlled by him. The Satan is too clever to make fool of us, but we are too fool to be fooled by the best 'jester'.
Right now, the Swine Flu alert has been raised from phase four to phase five out of six. This new update should be taken seriously by everybody especially the medical organizations. The human-to-human method of virus infection can put anyone at stake, for we don't know that probably the person who's sneezing beside us is the virus carrier. Nauzubillah minzaliq... May Allah protect us from such 'disaster'. Amen. Well, the thing I would like to emphasize here is that about the rationality of the order from Allah for not allowing us to eat non-halal foods such as pork. It is not my job to verify each and every order of Allah to all of His creations since all of the orders are non-negotiable and we only have to believe that Allah's orders are by all means, for the best of everyone. However, the non-muslims always need supporting facts for any Islamic fact raked up by the Muslims. If I were asked by them, my answers are very parallel to our logical thinkings and of reflections to our lives.
Before we go in depth upon the Islamic arguments, let's see the source of Swine Flu (H1N1) virus... The scientist said, it was sourced from pigs in Mexico farmlands. This has been verified by the UN health agency experts. As a matter of fact, beforehand, we had been startled by the appearance of H5N1 virus which was also from pigs. People still in their sleeps for not realizing the terrible things caused by pigs or pork that they eat. See Bank of New Zealand money box give away, they use a pig image to be the money box as known as Piggy Bank. They thought the animal is so cute that they can make it to be the money box. What so animal!
Now, let's heed on what Islam says about pigs and pork. Allah outlined the negative effects of eating porks in Quran. It is indeed that porks affect our health. I will not be going into scientific stuff since I'm not into Biology, but as Allah's servant, what we need to do is simply accepting and believing what He told us to do. He said don't eat pork, then we shouldn't eat it. Don't touch wet or damp pigs, then we shouldn't do that. Allah knows what we don't know. No argument is necessary actually when it comes to hukum Allah. The kafiruns are very stubborn to accept Islam even though at times, they have already known that Islam is always for goodness. The WHO can still confirm to all over the world that porks are still safe to be consumed at this while. It's up to them... It's all about themselves. The more kafiruns go to hell, the better it will be. We must believe that there will come the time when Islam rises up again to its heyday (before the last day) and that's the time when the number of kafiruns will be going down to the foot of the bell graph hill.
We must notice that this Swine Flu outbreak is the sequential disaster after the global recession. On surface, we look at the matters as economics and health problems. However, it is not all about worldly thingy. I must say that it's undeniable that all of the disasters on this Earth are created by the human themselves, but, it's due to their lack of knowledge on how to manage the Earth properly as ordered by Allah in the Quran. Human do not manage the Earth (tho' only the land) by referring to the Quran and sunnah, but they use their brains solely. They never thought who created the brain... Time is running out to improve the situation, unless we unite to take an action. Oh God, to relate world issues with Islamic elements can't be finished in one day or in one entry like this. There are infinite things to say and human's knowledge is very limited to know about everything. Ya Rabb, please forgive me, your humble, small servant...
All in all, the consequences of Swine Flu must be taken soberly by all and sundry. Our Malaysia High Commission First Secretary, Puan Siti Jalilah Abd. Manap has urged the medical students in NZ to study and take this opportunity to observe how the NZ government handles this situation. In the meantime, let's pray so that Allah will always protect us and our loved ones from the unwanted troubles. Amen.
