Tuhan, jagakan dia
"The planet does not need more 'successful people'. The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of all kinds. It needs people to live well in their places. It needs people with moral courage willing to join the struggle to make the world habitable and humane and these qualities have little to do with success as our culture is the set."
[Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama]

It was raining throughout the day. Instead of having an afternoon nap, I decided to do some blog walking and I came across a touching and eye-opener blog entry. The entry is about those prostitutes who are forced to be in that kind of business. The writer shares her conversation with her friend regarding that issue. I found the conversation interesting as they both commented on how these girls are actually morally good and have more humanistic values in comparison to those who are perceived as good or religious by the society. They noted how some respected and religious people often think themselves as noble and tend to judge others. Mudah menghukum daripada cuba memahami. But hey, it's not just only them. Believe it or not, we too do the same. We tend to judge people and think bad of them when they do something wrong. The writer and her friend both believe that rather than to simply judge, we must learn to think good about these people. Husnu dzon. Bersangka baik. Probably they have problems, and probably they are forced. Probably they want to stop being that but they don't know how. Probably they are waiting for help but it never came. Probably. We don't know. But you know what is wrong with most people nowadays? Stigma and mentality.

Hadis Abu Hurairah r.a: Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. bersabda:
"Sesungguhnya seorang wanita pelacur melihat seekor anjing sedang mengelilingi sebuah telaga pada hari yang sangat panas. Anjing itu berusaha menjelirkan lidahnya keran kehausan. Beliau kemudian menggunakan kasutnya yang dibuat dari kulit iaitui khuf untuk mengambil air telaga tersebut sehingga anjing tadi dapat minum. Oleh kerana perbuatannya itu, dosa wanita tersebut diampunkan."
