Atuk, Kalau Bersin Nak Sebut Apa?

Teringat masa aku masih lagi kecil, arwah atuk pernah cakap: "Kalau kita bersin, tutuplah mulut dan sebut Alhamdulillah, nanti Tuhan bagi kita satu pahala". Ya, betapa mudahnya untuk kita sebagai umat Islam mendapat pahala. Sebut 'Alhamdulillah' selepas bersin pun ada ganjarannya.

Gambar arwah atuk, Rahim Aripin dan aku

Kemudian aku bertanya kenapa kita perlu menutup mulut semasa bersin? Jawapan arwah atuk aku: "Kalau kita tutup mulut masa bersin, takdelah air liur kita tu kena kat orang lain. Kita orang Islam kan mementingkan kebersihan".

Aku pun bertanya lagi ( yelah, budak budak kan banyak bertanya ): "Tu bagi kita orang Islam, macamana pulak kalau orang bukan Islam?" Sambil menonton cerita Hindustan lakonan Amitabh Bachan, arwah atuk aku pun selambe menjawab: "Mat saleh tu semua sebutlah 'Excuse Me' ke, 'Pardon Me' ke, ikut adab dan cara diorang lah".

Bila terkenangkan semula, rindu pula pada arwah atok aku. Arwah meninggal semasa aku berumur 8 tahun kalau tak silap. Segala macam persoalan mengenai hidup dan agama, dia tahu jawapannya insya Allah.

Kalau arwah masih lagi hidup, aku nak sangat tau apa dia cakap kalau orang bersin dan jadi begini? Apa yang perlu disebutkan? Alhamdulillah? Excuse me? Apa hukumnya?

















Ni goalkeeper team Ajax, bersin sampai tertanggal gigi palsu. Sempat lagi ditangkapnya tu! Takde basuh, terus je masuk mulut balik. Hah, apa hukumnya ni? Dapat pahala? Dapat dosa? Makruh? Aku rasa kalau arwah masih hidup, dia akan kata hukumnya 'Gelakkan aje beramai ramai, dapat pahala sebab buat orang gembira'. Hahaha.

Saja je nak post entri yang tidak serius sebegini, selalunya asyik pasal paranormal dan serius aje bunyiknya.

Dihempap Ketika Tidur - Penjelasan Dan Ciri Cirinya

Saya tidak menafikan bahawa kebanyakan daripada kita pernah mengalami kejadian pelik ketika kita sedang tidur. Sama ada ianya ialah mimpi pelik, mimpi ngeri, tidur berjalan dan sebagainya. Tetapi satu topik yang selalu dibicarakan dan menjadi tanda tanya kepada masyarakat umum ialah 'Dihempap Ketika Tidur'.

Gambar hiasan sahaja. Mungkin benar. Hehe

Satu soalan yang selalu dikemukakan kepada saya ialah: "Betul ke bang kalau waktu tidur, kita dihempap dan itu ialah satu jenis gangguan makhluk halus? Atau pun ianya sekadar mainan tidur dan masalah fisiologi dan psikologi sahaja? Kalau benar ianya gangguan makhluk halus, bagaimana kita hendak membezakannya?"

Ini ialah satu persoalan yang mudah penjelasannya. Sejak dahulukala lagi masyarakat Asia telah dimomokkan dengan mitos dan ketahyulan mengenai subjek ini : tiada kaedah dan penjelasan yang jelas. Tidak terkecuali juga perawat perawat tradisional yang tua dan muda, pernah saya tengok tergagap gagap nak menjawab soalan mudah seperti ini. 

Mari kita lihat dari sudut saintifik terlebih dahulu sebelum kita masuk dari segi spiritual.


Sudut Saintifik

Mengikut kaedah saintifik, masalah ini dinamakan Sleep Paralysis. Masalah tidur ini dibahagikan kepada dua iaitu semasa tidur dan selepas tidur ( pre-dormital dan post-dormital form ). Masalah ini merupakan salah satu masalah yang biasa dialami oleh semua orang di dunia ini dan tidak mendatangkan sebarang kesan negatif yang berpanjangan.


Bayi yang di dalam REM Sleep

 Secara umumnya, bila manusia tidur otak kita akan berfungsi dengan kadar yang lebih cepat dan aktif. Ini dipanggil REM Sleep. Ini membuatkan seluruh fungsi badan kita berhenti tapi otak sahaja berfungsi dengan ligat untuk menghasilkan mimpi.

Apabila fungsi badan kita tiba tiba aktif sewaktu bermimpi, maka arahan daripada otak untuk sampai ke seluruh badan menjadi lembab mengakibatkan kita rasa susah untuk bergerak. Cuma selepas beberapa ketika barulah kita terjaga dan dapat bergerak seperti biasa semula kerana arahan daripada otak itu telah sampai ke seluruh badan.

Cuma apabila mereka yang mengalami masalah ini pada waktu itu akan panik dan menggelabah sekejap. Yelah tak boleh nak bergerak, siapa tak menggelabah kan. Tapi bila menghadapi masalah tidur ini, jangan kelam kabut and remain cool sampai anda boleh bergerak semula.

Secara ringkasnya, badan kita ni macam komputer juga. Bila dia nak reboot semula, memakan masa. Kalau kita paksa membuka browser dia akan lembab dan lagging sekejap.

 Sudut Spiritual

Sudut spiritual pula masih tidak dapat mengenalpasti mengapa fenomena 'ditindih' ini berlaku. Selalunya ia disebabkan oleh entiti entiti yang hanya mahu menyakat manusia ketika tidur, ataupun disebabkan sihir dan sebagainya.

Izinkan saya berkongsi dengan anda satu email yang saya terima daripada salah seorang pembaca blog ini. Email yang dihantar menunjukkan ciri ciri tepat simtom dihempap ketika tidur.


Susah bercakap dan bergerak kerana dihempap

"...dapat saya rasakan seperti saya susah nak bergerak, satu badan macam berat nak angkat satu jari pun payah. Selain tu saya rasa mcm ada angin kuat dlm selimut, mcm ada orang kibas2 selimut saya pakai tu. Ada juga dgr suara perempuan dan lelaki mentertawakan saya sedang diganggu. Saya nak baca apa apa surah pun tak boleh, mulut bergerak tapi suara saya tak keluar."

"...rasanya mcm lama diganggu masa tu tapi bila saya tersedar, rasa meremang bulu roma mcm ada mata pandang kearah saya dari satu sudut bilik. Dan saya ada teringat sebelum rasa dihempap tu saya ada bermimpi satu mimpi buruk. Di kaki kanan tempat saya kena pegang tu ada kesan lebam biru."

 Semua ciri ciri dihempap ada disini dan telah saya highlight untuk anda semua. Badan susah bergerak, selimut dikibas kibas, kedengaran suara, ternampak sesuatu, suara tidak keluar bila hendak bercakap, meremang bulu roma selepas terjaga, dan mengalami mimpi buruk sebelum dihempap.

 Walaupun ada persamaan diantara Sleep Paralysis dan Gangguan Tidur ini, kita tetap boleh memberi perbezaan diantara kedua dua perkara ini.

Sleep Paralysis:

1. Badan susah bergerak
2. Halusinasi ( nampak bayangan, lembaga dan lain lain )
3. Badan berfungsi seperti biasa setelah beberapa ketika

Gangguan Tidur:

1. Mimpi buruk / ngeri
2. Badan susah bergerak
3. Halusinasi ( nampak bayangan, lembaga dan lain lain )
4. Terdapat pergerakan disebabkan objek lain ( katil atau selimut bergerak dan lain lain )
5. Kesan fizikal ( lebam di mana mana bahagian badan )
6. Meremang bulu roma selepas bangun tidur ( kesan daya elektromaknetik entiti berhampiran )

 Jikalau anda mengalami masalah Sleep Paralysis, amat digalakkan jika anda membiasakan diri melakukan senaman ringan sebelum tidur dan mendapat tidur yang cukup. Jika anda mengalami masalah Gangguan Tidur, sila pastikan anda mengambil wuduk dan membaca surah Al Fatihah, surah 3 Qul dan ayat Qursy. Bagi yang bukan beragama Islam, anda digalakkan untuk membasuh kaki, muka dan tangan serta membaca mantera suci agama anda.

Kaedah dan langkah langkah diatas cuma sekadar ilmu pengetahuan asas di dalam menangani masalah tersebut jika anda sedang tidur. Jika masalah masih lagi berterusan, saya mengesyorkan supaya anda mendapatkan rawatan doktor atau perawat spiritual peribadi anda.


Kalau Maria Ozawa jadi nurse, aku pun hari hari nak sakit!

Jikalau anda pernah mengalami gangguan atau masalah sewaktu tidur, sila kongsikannya bersama kami di ruangan komen dibawah. Mungkin berguna untuk future reference kepada orang ramai.

Harus diingat bahawa entri ini hanyalah untuk menjawab persoalan anda mengenai isu ditindih ketika tidur dan hanya sebagai panduan / guideline untuk mengenal pasti perbezaan di antara Sleep Paralysis dan Gangguan Tidur bagi mereka yang mengalami masalah dihempap sewaktu tidur.

Bagi mereka yang sudah berumah tangga, kalau 'dihempap' di waktu malam tu dah lain maksudnya. Tak payah pertolongan, tak dapek dah den nak nolong..

Kisah Toyol : Fakta Atau Auta?

Masih terpahat di memori satu kejadian pelik yang berlaku baru baru ini ketika melakukan satu tinjauan paranormal bersama Kru Penyingkap Fakta 666. Memandangkan ianya satu cerita yang agak menarik untuk dikongsikan bersama, maka saya nukilkan disini.

Gambaran media mengenai toyol

Seperti biasa kru 666 mendapat panggilan untuk menyiasat kejadian pelik yang berlaku di sebuah taman perumahan. Mengikut dakwaan, kawasan perumahan tersebut sering diganggu dengan kehadiran toyol. Sejak beberapa tahun lepas beratus ribuan ringgit duit penduduk kawasan perumahan tersebut dicuri toyol toyol tersebut.

Apabila sampai di tapak lokasi kami disambut oleh jawatankuasa penduduk kawasan perumahan. Mereka mula menceritakan kisah yang dihadapi sejak bertahun lamanya. Kami hanya mendengar keluh kesah mereka: salah satu cara untuk mendapatkan info dan maklumat lebih tepat berhubung kejadian pelik ini.


Aku: "Dah berapa lama masalah toyol ini berlaku?"

Penduduk: "Ada lah lebih 10 tahun. Dah beratus ribu duit penduduk sini habis!"

Aku: "Kira kira dalam satu minggu, berapa kali kejadian ini berlaku?"

Penduduk: "Tiap tiap malam ada je rumah orang kena masuk toyol. Tapi tak menentu, kejap disana kejap disini. Makin kerap berlaku sejak kebelakangan ini daripada biasa. Dulu dia curi RM50, sekarang dah naik dan naik sampai ada hilang RM2,000 untuk perniagaan."


Toyol selalu dikaitkan dgn kes wang hilang

 Kalau diikutkan, jikalau setiap malam kejadian ini berlaku maknanya toyol semakin mengganas. Maka kami teruskan bertanya.



Aku: "Abang sendiri pun pernah hilang duit ke sebab dicuri toyol ini?"

Penduduk: "Pernah. Dah lebih 5 kali duit saya hilang. Ingatkan anak saya curi, tapi dia kata dia tak curi. Saya pun cuba sorokkan di tempat yang lebih selamat, hilang juga. Selit didalam Al Quran pun hilang juga. Pelik!"

Aku: "Selama kejadian toyol ini berlaku, siapa pernah melihat atau ternampak kelibat toyol tersebut?"

Penduduk: "Takde sorang pun pernah nampak. Itu yang hairan."

Aku: "Pernah ada panggil ustaz atau sesiapa untuk menolong selesaikan masalah ini?"

Penduduk: "Ada la juga panggil beberapa orang ustaz untuk pertolongan. Elok la lepas tu, tapi sebulan je. Lepas tu jadi balik. Tapi berbeza pandangan setiap yang datang menolong, ada kata toyol dua ekor, ada kata hantu raya, ada kata tiada apa apa.."

Ya, aku semakin pelik. Aku lihat abang Razali juga menggaru kepala yang bersadur besi. Banyak benda yang tak masuk akal disini. Sementara itu abang Mazidul sudah bangun dan mula merakamkan gambar. Aku teruskan bertanya..

Razali 'KTJ' Harun


Aku: "Kaum wanita disini ada pernah nampak, diganggu atau dicuri duit juga?"

Penduduk: "Setakat kami tahu, tak pernah lagi. Selalunya lelaki sahaja yang hilang duit ni. Anak lelaki saya pun pernah kehilangan duit sekali"

Razali: "Duit yang hilang dalam jumlah yang besar seperti RM2,000 itu sudah dilaporkan kepada pihak polis ke? Kan duit untuk berniaga tu. Gunakanlah alasan apa apa agar tindakan undang undang dituduh mencuri duit syarikat tidak berlaku"

Penduduk: "Takde pun kami report kepada pihak berkuasa"

Razali: "Setakat ini, berapa anggaran jumlah wang yang hilang didalam sebulan?"

Penduduk: "Kira kiranya adalah dalam RM10,000 sebulan."

Aku: "Abang ni semua nampak relaks je, macam tak takut ada gangguan toyol disini."

Penduduk: "Dah biasa dah begini sejak 10 tahun lepas. Dah tak tahu nak buat apa dah"


Memandangkan keadaan taman perumahan yang terang dan sesak, kami tidak dapat meneruskan siasatan pada malam itu. Kami hanya mampu mendengar cerita dan dakwaan penduduk perumahan tersebut. Selain dari itu kami takut barang barang kami 'disapu' oleh mereka yang tak bertanggungjawab. Equipment ni pula bukannya murah..

Tapi bila difikirkan semula, banyak fakta dan data tidak masuk akal dan tak kena disini.

1. Dah lebih kurang 10 tahun tapi tiada siapa pernah nampak toyol dakwaan.
2. Kalau sebulan duit yang hilang lebih kurang RM10,000 maka kaya betul tokey toyol tu buat bisnes
3. Cuma lelaki sahaja yang selalu kehilangan duit, wanita tidak.
4. Duit perniagaan yang hilang tidak dilaporkan kepada pihak polis.
5. Perbezaan pandangan dan pendapat setiap mereka yang datang menolong.

Kalau diteliti, nampak seperti ada sesuatu konspirasi yang berlaku di kalangan kaum lelaki di kalangan penduduk di situ. Cuma menjadi satu misteri dan tanda tanya kepada persoalan tersebut. Semasa di dalam perjalanan pulang ke kereta, aku menyuarakan kemusykilan aku kepada abang Mazidul.


Aku: "Macam ada benda tak kena je bro kat sini. Banyak fakta tak tally."

Mazidul: "Memanglah, dekat kawasan ni kan ada port perjudian."

Aku: "Owh patut lah. Cover line lah agaknya semua story toyol tu?"

Suhaimi: "Humph! Semua muka kaki roulette je saya tengok tadi."


Moral pengalaman ini: jangan terlalu cepat percaya kepada sesuatu perkara sebelum faktanya diselidik terlebih dahulu. 

Kesian, toyol juga menjadi mangsa keadaan. Haha.

The New Most Haunted Places In Malaysia

NOTE : I would like to apologize as most of the links in this article is broken. We are sorry for the inconvenience and are deeply sad that most of our research and evidence on the old webpage is gone. I will do a follow up article soon and in the meantime i hope you will enjoy reading this article as i have enjoyed writing it. Thank you.

 I am sure many Malaysians have heard plenty of stories about haunted houses and places when they were growing up. Stories that make our spines chill and give us goosebumps. Yes, it is certainly fun to listen to these stories and urban legends until those horror images comes swirling into your mind in the dead of night. Eerie.

What stalks you in the bathroom?

Not forgetting the youngsters who seek these kind of places. Most of the youngsters nowadays seek these haunted places for the adrenaline rush, suspense and sometimes for research purposes. Undoubtedly there are tonnes of places where one can go to be spooked in Malaysia, and where better to gather such information than searching for it in the World Wide Web!

Did you know that if someone were to search the web using the keyword 'Most Haunted Places In Malaysia' the results for the search would normally be this (picture).


Google search result 1
Google search result 2

Now, if you have tried doing so, try opening some of the links listed in the search results. Read through a few of the links posted there. Of course if you're too tired to use the search engine yourself i have prepared a few of these links for your viewing pleasure ( click here , here , here , and here ). These are all webpages that contains information regarding the most haunted places in Malaysia. Now then, anyone would notice that most of the links posted there contain the same places over and over again. 

Kind of dull and boring, isnt it? Getting the same old information and pictures over and over again. If i didnt know better i swear these posts were copied and pasted from other websites. Furthermore, the question that keeps popping in my mind is that: did the writers of these posts actually did go to these places and try them out for themselves before claiming that these places are the most haunted places in Malaysia?

Well, whatever.

Anyway, lets see these most haunted places in Malaysia and list down the ones that are popular and get rid of those unnecessary ones so we could see which ones are the most haunted. Once again, i have taken the liberty of listing them all down for you from many websites, ranging from the most haunted to the least haunted. Yes, for your reading pleasure.

 1. Pudu Jail, Kuala Lumpur
 2. Bukit Tunku, Kuala Lumpur
 3. Highland Towers, Bukit Antarabangsa
 4. Karak Highway, Pahang
 5. Mona Fandey's 'Aeroplane' House, Cheras
 6. Abandoned Bungalows, Bangsar
 7. Kellie's Castle, Perak
 8. Villa Nabila, Johor Bahru

Well now, as a paranormal researcher and investigator myself i dare say that this is a pretty impressive list of hell holes in Malaysia. Lovely. 

Personally i have been to most of the places listed here with my paranormal crew Penyingkap Fakta 666 ( or just 666 in short ) and i must say that the stories and information given in these posts are mostly exaggerated and sometimes inaccurate. Our crew have been to these places and documented our findings for the public. Bear in mind, however, that we are there to uncover the cold hard facts instead of telling urban legends and creating scary stories to be told to people. If you are looking to be scared shitless, i advise you to stop reading this post and buy a ticket to a horror movie for yourself.

However some of our findings and pictures might just give u a scare and surprise you. Psyche!

THE FINDINGS

1. Pudu Jail, Kuala Lumpur


Now evidently this place is said to be one of the most hardcore places in Malaysia. This is the place where humans were sentenced to death and vicious criminals were kept tucked safely away from the public. According to records, Block D which was built 117 years ago, was the building where they held convicts that were to be sentenced to death. Between 1933 to 1960 up to 180 convicts were sentenced to death by hanging. I have been to this place three times for research pruposes, and it still gives me the creeps.

Fortunately we did catch something on camera and our video during our investigations. It looked like something staring back at us from one of the holding cells. Coincidentally that was infront of the room where they hung humans to death. Read about it by clicking at this link

2. Bukit Tunku, Kuala Lumpur


Previously knows as Kenny Hills, they say the houses in Bukit Tunku are haunted. Stories of mysterious motorcyclist vanishing in the dark of night, to me is just another folklore. Furthermore, most of the haunted houses in Bukit Tunku have been demolished and built anew. There is however an old British colonial house which has remained hidden away there if you can find it. According to history the old English tenant ended his own life there. 

Old house in Tunku Hills

We went there around 3 times and during the first round some paranormal activity did happen. Of course you can read the whole story here by clicking at this link. The second and third visit and research, nothing happened. So much for being ranked at number two most haunted.

3. Highland Towers, Bukit Antarabangsa


The famous Highland Towers! One of the three main blocks crumbled down to mother Earth on 18th December 1993 taking with it 48 victims on that fateful day. Since then, stories of weird dogs chasing cars in the middle of the night and youngsters being possessed while ghost hunting circulated like wildfire until today. Even the police wouldn't dare to go on a patrol there at night!

Some local productions have also made horror movies at this location itself. The movie, titled Highland Towers, is based on a 'found footage' genre about a group of youngsters who got lost during a paranormal documentary. Unfortunately, the movie sucked. I personally wasted 90 minutes of my life watching this terrible movie. You can read the movie review here, written by my friend Feris Othman Yunos who is a producer, by clicking at this link here

Our crew went there and caught something on camera that looked like a flying baby or a lady. You can read the story by clicking here. Oh, did i forget to mention that among the victims were a 77 year old lady and a 6 months old baby? Coincidence?

4. Karak Highway, Pahang


Yes, we all know the tales of the mysterious Volkswagon, weird ghosts suddenly appearing on the road causing accidents and death, so on and so forth. Karak Highway is a staple ghost story in Malaysian culture. Every Tom, Dick and Harry knows about it.

Some of the crews in the Karak investigation

The crew went to investigate this old road but unfortunately due to bad weather, lack of supporting eye witness from the townsfolk who live there and different accounts of exact location makes this place just another Malaysian folklore. I guess whatever it is that supposedly haunted the place has either went away or grew bored of disturbing people. Nevertheless, you can read about our investigation on it here. 

5. Mona Fandeys 'Aeroplane' House, Cheras


I have always seen the picture of this particular house being said that it belongs to Mona Fandey and it is in Cheras. Let me share with you a picture of such claims.



Please know that this house is not located behind Leisurepoint, Cheras. This one particular house is located in Seksyen 12, Shah Alam. I have been to this house with one of my friend Mohd Farid Hamzah twice, we did not get the chance to go in as it is located in the premises of the Selangor Royal Family estate, but it is definitely creepy.  

6. Abandoned Bungalows, Bangsar



This one always cracks me up each time i hear about it. I have been living in Bangsar for the past 13 years and i sure have not seen such abandoned bungalows which are reportedly haunted. So dear readers, there are no such claims of haunted bungalows, but there is a haunted bungalow (no plural) here in Jalan Turi. According to old police record, the security killed two American children and the maid, cut their bodies up intp pieces and dumped them in the sewage tank. Yes, this is a true story.

Some of the evidences found in the house

Been here numerous times. Evidence of the kids school books and toys are still there. A piece of advice: if anyone is going for ghost hunts at the house, please leave the things as they are so other people can see the evidence as well. You can read the story of our visit to the house here. I once personally saw a silhoutte of a child waving at me from the balcony when i was driving home a while back. Nice eyh?


UPDATE

There is a new update regarding this legendary Jalan Turi house in Bangsar. To see the updated entry and pictures, click here

7. Kellie's Castle, Perak



Reports of strange screaming at nights, doors closing on their own and sightings of a little girl that was reported to have died there. Have been there once without the paranormal crew. I asked the keeper of the place about the weird things happening there, he just shrugged his shoulders and said "We have not had those things happening in years now. Probably it has gone away".

Since he does not give permission to conduct an investigation, i guess i shall have to believe his words then. Maybe one day soon, who knows eh?

8. Villa Nabila, Johor Bahru



The infamous Villa Nabila, situated in Danga Bay. Lots of stories here. History says that the previous tenants of the house were killed in a house robbery and since then its been haunted. Some paranormal investigators went 'missing' inside the house and only got out just right after dawn.



The recent case of 23 kids disappearing at the Villa Nabila haunted house in Johor Bahru shocked the whole nation, even though it was a hoax. Nevertheless, a government servant who was at the scene the day after took a weird picture of himself.. with a 'face' in the background. Pictures and story can be read by clicking here

 So there you go. The old 'Most Haunted Places In Malaysia' updated with evidence and proof. For the time being i think i shall continue with the conclusion of this entry in the next post. If you are interested in seeing some Random Paranormal Snapshots in Malaysia, click here
