Benarkah Iskandar Bukan Zulqarnain?

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

Okay, this is a post about a review of a book. Yang baru saja aku habis baca tadi.
Well, thanks to abg Aedie kerna sudi pinjamkan buku ni kat aku.
Walaupun da lama aku mintak, tapi lama jugak la dia baru ingat nak bagi kat aku! Haha
Tapi, da lama plak aku pinjam, this semester break baru aku baca. Hehe bzzz seblom neh.
What it is about ?
The title of the book is BENARKAH ISKANDAR BUKAN ZULQARNAIN?
Did you ever heard about Iskandar Zulqarnain or Alexander the Great?
If you said NO, so sila²lah ambil tahu. Hehe it is too long to story here.
But if you said YES, you should know that Iskandar actually IS NOT Zulqarnain!
Okay, so here is the review.

Tajuk : Benarkah Iskandar Bukan Zulqarnain
Pengarang : Afareez Abd Razak Al-Hafiz
Penerbit : PTS Millennia Sdn Bhd
ISBN : 978-983-3604-07-4
Mukasurat : 200 Halaman
Harga : Sem. M'sia RM17.50   Sabah/Sarawak RM19.50

Sejak sekian lama, kita mempercayai Iskandar Zulqarnain adalah individu yang hebat dalam sejarah. Beliaulah yang kita namakan Alexander the Great. Namun, kita tidak pernah tahu sama sekali bahawasanya Iskandar dan Zulqarnain adalah dua individu yang berbeza. Benarkah kenyataan itu? Buku ini ada jawapannya. Buku ini dimulakan dengan kupasan mengenai empat raja agung dunia purba mengikut turutan sejarah hidup mereka iaitu Raja Namrud, Nabi Sulaiman, Raja Bukhtanasar dan Zulqarnain. Ketiga-tiga raja pertama dipanggil dan diketahui dengan nama mereka sendiri sedangkan Zulqarnain pula adalah satu gelaran yang disandarkan kepada beberapa tokoh hebat termasuklah Raja Iskandar (Alexander). Siapakah mereka? Bilakah mereka memerintah? Siapakah yang dahulu dan siapa pula yang datang kemudian? Diskusi di dalam buku ini membantu anda bagi lebih memahami sejarah silam. Namun, di sebalik segala persoalan itu, yang lebih penting adalah persoalan, adakah sesuai jika disandarkan gelaran Zulqarnain kepada Raja Iskandar?


Quran menceritakan mengenai ciri-ciri Zulqarnain yang mana jika dikaitkan dengan sejarah hidup Raja Iskandar, ia adalah bercanggah. Buku ini memuatkan perbincangan serta hujah-hujah yang sesuai bagi mengaitkan tokoh yang paling hampir dan sesuai dengan gelaran Zulqarnain. Bukti hidup daripada peninggalan Zulqarnain adalah tembok yang dibinanya bagi menghalang Yakjuj Makjuj. Siapakah mereka ini dan siapakah yang mereka kacau sehingga Zulqarnain membina tembok serta di manakah tembok itu?
***********
After I read this book, I think that I got more knowledge about earlier historians. Besides, this book also have lots of moral values! So you have to grab a chance to do a read of this book!

HAPPY READING!  : D

Kuasa! Design Power Asia. wREGA Design Conference 2009


Hello there. It's quite late to post this.
But it is ok : ) since I want to share it to whom it may concern.
This is about a design conference held on 8-9 August in Kota UM Campus, Jalan Tun Ismail, KL.
I was selected(xnak actually! hahaa) by my Head of Department (Tuan Haji Ab Razak Shamsuddin) with 2 other friends, Attilia & Syalida to attend the conference.
We were there to listen and learn from some of the most awarded and accomplished design speakers in Asia, that talk about what inspires them, their life's work, and what's in store for the design industry.



Me with Syalida, Sudhir Sharma (Design Consultant from India) & Attilia.


There are 6 speakers of the day. Ahn Sang-soo (South Korea), Sudhir Sharma (India), Freeman Lau (Hong Kong), Hermawan Tanzil (Indonesia), Little Ong (Singapore), and Tarek Atrissi (Lebanon/Netherlands).
