DIMENSI ILUSI

Oleh: Ramdan Nugraha

Ada secangkir kopi

Di dalamnya bercampur gula dan susu putih

Membawa ku berpindah dimensi

Kesunyian dalam balutan interaksi

Ku tinggal segera menemui keramaian hati

Ku jabat tangan-tangan lembut para sufi

Salam sebagai pembuka untuk sebuah diskusi

Hidup dalam ruang nyata yang tampak seperti ilusi

Namun ini semua nyata, ini terjadi!

Dimensi lain

Dimensi suci

Dimensi ilusi

BERKUALITASLAH!

Oleh: Ramdan Nugraha

Zaman ini ada Tuhan baru bagi sebagian pengikutnya yang loyal “tampak” berakal

Aku mengikuti alur dominan penghuni Bumi

Mendaftarkan nama dan kelengkapan data

Memasuki dunia cerita maya

Namanya “pesbuk”!

Begitulah lidah para penggemar Tuhan baru itu akrab berucap

Kudapati sedikit orang cerdas dengan pengaruh kata-katanya

Kulihat gambar-gambar yang beraneka warna dan kisah

Sebagian membuat hati bergetar

Sebagian menumbuhkan butir-butir emosi memupuk dendam

Namun ada alasan mengapa aku muak mendadak!

Ketika ku dapati begitu BANYAKNYA status dari para pembual

Merajai diri dengan ceramah

dengan visi misi mendapat jempol dan pujian dunia

Memenuhi laman utama “pesbuk” dengan nasehat yang seharusnya untuk dirinya saja

Kiblatnya adalah jalan emas “golden ways” milik seorang pria

Akal dan pemikiran mereka berhenti dalam tatanan angka

Tak ada yang sedikit saja mengandung kualitas didalamnya

Mereka belajar menjadi Tuhan!

Hahahahahaha!

Kadang angan datang begitu saja – seandainya Hitler ada,

Mungkin kelompok yang tak berguna dimusnahkan saja

Berikan waktu mereka yang berguna

yang akan hidup dengan nilai-nilainya

Bukan mereka yang bersedih dan berdoa

Hanya pada dinding ratapan maya tak berjiwa

Tuhan, maafkan mereka yang tak berguna.

Manusia Macam Apa Ini?

Oleh: Ramdan Nugraha

Bergunjing seperti anjing

Ber-teori tak berteman bukti

Menukil tanpa menyemat dalil

Manusia macam apa ini?

Agama dikotori

Ilmu dimanipulasi

Ber-gibah menjadi visi dan misi

Manusia macam apa ini?

Saat orang-orang benar terpengaruh

Kubangan muara fitnah semakin keruh

Terjadi rekayasa moral secara utuh

Iblis saja nampaknya malu tak berani beradu

Menampar Orang Yang Berkamuflase Dengan Agama

Oleh: Ramdan Nugraha

Huuuuuuhhhh,

Ku hela nafas dalam kesadaran

Baru saja Allah memberi sebuah ujian

Dimana iblis memasuki makhluk berpendidikan

Yang menerkam hati dengan cerdik bualan

Biarlah aku terasing namun bertahan

Bertahan dengan keyakinan akan kebenaran

Tingkah anda tak masuk tindakan beretika!

Memberi pembenaran dengan bergunjing seperti gonggong anjing

Sedang aku adalah salah satu gunjingannya

Kini harus ku pertanyakan ilmu anda adopsi dari Adam atau musuhnya?

hanya hati mu yang mampu menjawabnya!

An Ideal Leader with Ideal Leadership

Muhammadiyah, as a big Islamic group in Indonesia has high competence in viewing an ideal leadership based on the leadership character of The Prophet Muhammad saw. which was the leader of Islam and led Moeslims for the short time, but his leadership has influenced people both Moeslim and non-Moeslim around the world to follow his meaningful values in leading individual, community, or even country until the recent time.

There are two terms which are used to define an ideal leadership. The firts, “Amir” which is defined as a person who can professionally lead and decide the state policy for politic, economy, education, health, security, and so on.  The second one is “Imam” who is outstandingly knowledgable in religion and become a spiritual leader. When among Moeslims have different point of view in ritually doing things, the “Imam” will have his knowledge to be put as the solution for kind of problems.

The Prophet Muhammad is the blessed human and both character of “Amir” and “Imam” are found on him. It has meaning that Rasulullah knows how to maintain the state (Islam) very well through the Islamic values which are known and implemented by him as an “Imam” as well. Once, Rasulullah got a question from one of the participants during his speech in a meeting; “When will the doomsday come?” said the participant, but Rasulullah just carried on his speech and kindly ignored the participant until he finished his speech. After that, Rasulullah asked the one who gave him question to listen; “when some foolish people get the trust to lead many people, it is one of the clues that the doomsday has been very close”.

In the current years, we see that Rasulullah statement has been obviously proved by many leaders among us do the wrong things, but they formally act well when they attend the formal occasions. They become someone else when nobody sees them as the functionary or official in the government. This kind of people are called as the formalistic leaders. Although the world seems going wrongly, Muhammadiyah consistently implement the “servant leadership” which means that leader should sincerely serve the citizenry or society. Financial, facilitation, respect, intelligence, are important for leader, but the leader’s dedication for his society is the top after the dedication to Allah swt. as the first priority. Muhammadiyah members will alway dedicate their energy, their thoughts, their money, for Muhammadiyah movements with knowledge and deep understanding of Islamic essential values. Muhammadiyah has deed of work in education field such as university, in this field, the members of Muhammadiyah who have capability or skills and intelligence will be professionally guaranteed to have a better chance to grow up. In conclusion, Muhammadiyah has the point of view that ideal leader is the one who can be an “amir” and “imam” as well. The leaders will also dedicate themselves to give better way of life by implementing Islamic values no matter how hard it is.
