CPR December: One God, One Ummah.
Thursday, December 4, 2008
Cakap Pasal Remaja Season Finale! We'll discuss about Unity, Silaturrahim, Identity, Oneness and One Destination. Grab your friends along for this "big bang" season finale of Cakap Pasal Remaja (CPR)!
Cakap Pasal Remaja "One God, One Ummah" Date: Wed, 24 December 2008 Time: 4.30pm-7.00pm Venue: Auditorium Masjid Sultan
The CPR committee would like to say thank you kepada mereka (about 500 youths) yang telah datang ke program Night of Power and witnessed the skit @ CPR. i'm sure we all enjoyed the session *mcm byk yg nangis terisak-isak je :p*. hopefully pengajaran disebalik sketsa yang dilakonkan Ustaz2 dan belia2 kita stays in the heart and mind. it was fun overnight-ing and ramai2 bgn waktu Qiyam!not forgetting watching the video yang menginsafkan.that also, the CPR committee hope has an everlasting effect on all of u. teruskan usaha untuk menjadi orang dan Muslim yang lebih baik. ingat pesanan CPR, Al-Quran itu adalah petunjuk bagi kita (Al-Qur'an Hudallinnas).
" Malam semalam saya hadiri CPR di Masjid Sultan. Bukan CPR pernafasan mulut ke mulut tu tau! Para remaja perlu tahu CPR ni kalau tak termasuk di kalangan orang yang rugilah dia. CPR yang saya maksudkan di sini ialah Cakap Pasal Remaja. Satu program interaktif yang disusun khas untu remaja hasil inisiatif para pegawai pembangunan belia (YDO) masjid-masjid di Singapura. Program ini biasanya disertai dengan sketsa, persembahan muzik (live!) dan juga sesi talk show mengikut tema2 yang telah disusun lebih awal.
Tapi bagi sesi semalam terdapat kejutan besar pada format CPR yang diadakan sempena dengan RYC (Ramadan Youth Challenge) dan dianjurkan serentak dengan Night of Power (aktiviti Qiyam). Maknanya lepas CPR belia2 ni akan qiyam semalaman di Masjid Sultan. Hebat kan? Memang hebat, acara semalam penuh auditorium. Saya rasa ada dlm 500 belia hadir.
Kejutan yang saya maksudkan ialah sesi semalam melibatkan pementasan lakonan pentas atau teater bertemakan Quran Petunjuk Buat Manusia (juga tema bagi RYC tahun ini) hampir sejam setengah ini melibatkan pelakon rata-rata daripada para asatizah muda! Ia disertai dengan alunan muzik live dan nyanyian latar oleh Ustaz Sofyan (Imam Eksekutif Masjid Mydin). Power kan? Memang power gilerr!!! Teringat pulak saya macam film There's Something About Mary :)
Story board dia memang menarik, penuh dengan pendekatan baru dan kreatif. Saya tak tahulah sape punya idea. CPR ni dimulakan dengan MC pada malam tu yang juga merangkap storyteller atau Tok Selampit iaitu Ustaz Effendi from Masjid An-Nahdhah. Wow, he's so talented man..cant believe it..really. Effendi memainkan peranan beliau dengan cukup baik sebagai host dan pada masa yang sama sebagai pencerita. Dengan membahasakan dirinya sebagai AKU, beliau menjadi pencerita antara babak2. Secara tak langsung beliau sebenarnya berlakon juga..cara beliau berintraksi dengan penonton. Superb! Intonasi suara beliau kadangkala lembut, kadangkala pula keras sehingga penonton tersentak!Terkujat pun boleh.. Adegan dimulakan dengan babak 4 sekawan, Dini (Ustaz Aminuddin-ex pegawai Masjid Al-Iman) Mimi (Ustaz Fairuz, YDO Masjid Al-Ansar), Jeff (Ustaz Ahmad Khushairi, YDO Darul Ghufran) dan Ilhan (Ustaz Syakir, Imam Eksekutif Masjid Al-Iman) berkain pelekat merancang untuk ponteng belajar mengaji, mereka kemudian lepak sambil berkongsi cita-cita mereka apabila sudah besar nanti. (cita2 mereka menjadi kisah utama sketsa ni). Mereka kemudian sepakat untuk bersama-sama seperti adik-beradik walau apa jua keadaan.
Move fwd, kesemua mereka membesar dengan nasib yang berbeza (diceritakan dlm bentuk flashback), Jeff (cita2 masa kecil dulu nak jadi model, konon dlm cerita ni dia paling hensem lah) akhirnya menjadi playboy rosakkan anak gadis orang, Mimi (cita2 dulu nak jadi ketua dalam apa sahaja perkara) akhir jadi ketua samseng bergelar Mimi parang- yang akhirnya dipermainkan oleh teman2 sendiri. Dini (cita2 dulu nak jadi Ustaz) bila besar pulak jadi anak derhaka, akibat terpengaruh dengan teman2 hingga jadi penagih. Tinggallah Ilhan (cita2 nak bantu orang yg susah) yang sentiasa muncul dlm flashback teman2 nya untuk membantu rakan2 yg tersesat jalan.
Cerita disudahi dengan penuh tragis, di mana akhirnya Ilhan meninggal dunia krn mengidap penyakit serius, tetapi sebelum beliau meninggal sempat utuskan satu warkah buat teman2 nya (yang dianggap adik beradik) supaya bertaubat dan insaf.
Komen saya, sketsa yang dilakokan sungguh cemerlang, penghayatan watak baik dari pelakon utama hingga ke watak kecil (cameo role) sungguh hidup dan berikan kesan yang mendalam kepada para penonton yang kebanyakannya terdiri daripada para belia dan remaja. Penonton di sebelah saya sendiri mengesat air mata..
Saya rasa tema yang ingin ditonjolkan berjaya disampaikan dengan baik, dimana di setiap adegan atau babak keinsafan disudahi dengan skrin yang mengandungi terjemahan ayat Quran dan diselangi dengan nyanyian lagu2 dakwah seperti 'anak derhaka, pintu taubat masih terbuka...' oh sungguh menyentuh kalbu rasanya.
Konsep tempat duduk juga tiada percampuran antara lelaki dan perempuan, terdapat watak lakonan pelakon muslimah, seorang sebagai ibu (ibu kepada Dini) seorang lagi pula berlakon sebagai Farah (Norizan) temanita Jeff (Norizan ialah isteri Ustaz Ahmad Khushairi sendiri) wah2 sungguh romantik dan manja sebagai kekasih.. : ) Sporting betul lah..
Story yang disampaikan juga tidak stereotype, budak madrasah tak semestinya baik dan boleh tersesat jika tidak berhati2, begitu juga dengan kerja dakwah bukan hanya satu tugas eksklusif untuk asatizah shj. Ia tanggungjawab semua individu Muslim. Siapa kata drama remaja tidak boleh diselitkan dengan unsur dakwah serta tidak bercampur unsur2 syubhah ataupun haram? Melihat dari segi impak nya kepada penonton, malah di babak akhir sungguh klimaks dengan ketiga2 watak utama menangis teresak2 dengan pada masa yang sama kami semua mendengarkan isi kandungan warkah yang dibaca oleh Ilhan (Ustaz Syakir) dengan bait yang tersusun rapi, intonasi suara yang terkawal. Sungguh menyayat hati..5 ***** dari saya."

CPR June: Invitation To Z.O.U.Q (With a Q not a K :p)
Thursday, June 19, 2008
Assalamualaikum aspiring youths,
We are pleased to inform that YoungMuslims.sg will be organizing another episode (our 3rd that is) of Cakap Pasal Remaja (CPR) at Al-Iman Mosque.
This month's topic is 'Z.O.U.Q' & it will touch on the various issues relating to youth and entertainment. As we know, the reality is that youths today are pre-occupied with the various modes of entertainment, be it in the physical form, virtual or otherwise. The forum aims to put the outlook of entertainment from Islamic perspective. We are pleased to invite everyone to join us in this forum.
Details are as follows:
Date : 21 June 08 Time : 4pm - 6.30pm Venue : Basement, Masjid Al-Iman, 10 Bukit Panjang Ring Road S (679943)
Our dish for the week : Performances by the infamous Ustaz Sofyan & his aspiring musicians, and a session with Al-Iman's youth band, Puritania. Lets go together and show CPR our support..!
Have you heard of CPR? It is not mouth-to-mouth resuscitation as commonly known. CPR is an acronym for the talk show of ‘Cakap Pasal Remaja‘. It is scheduled to be held on a monthly basis at different mosques with different themes and contents. It is customized to youth’s needs and interests by providing enlightening information regarding issues that are very close to their hearts.
It creates awareness of the Muslim youths’ behaviours via the highly interactive talk shows with specialists pertaining to our religion. It provides knowledge on Islamic contents, economy and news around the world. It has various entertaining programmes such as live performances, skit/video, games and many more.
The theme for the first series of Cakap Pasal Remaja is “Young Muslims United”. This was held at Masjid Hasanah on 4 April 2008 after Isya'. What do we mean by Young Muslims United? We realise that nowadays, the Muslim youths would rather spend their precious time with their friends at the bars or shopping malls than at the mosques or studying at home. We notice that they would prefer to do things that they find to be cool such as gang fights, having intimate relations, unruly behaviours such as shouting vulgarities and inappropriate attires.
The show began with a live performance by Ustaz Sofyan and his aspiring musicians. They played guitars, representing the youths’ coolest instruments, and sung a cover of M.Nasir's "Apocalyse".
The unique part of the whole programme is when the Youth Development Officers, or YDOs, from various mosques dressed trendily and communicated in the youth lingo in a mixture of Malay and English. This is to attract the youths’ attention so that they will not regard this as a form of lecture.
The specialists present discussed the current issues faced by the youths. They motivated them to frequent the mosque by changing their mindset of treating the mosque as a place for worship. It can be the youth hub where they can congregate and participate in fun activities that are being held.
“The reason why we focus on the youths is because they are our future leaders who would maintain law and order. These youths would be the ones changing the world,” commented Asatizah Nor Hayati. She also emphasized on identity, ambitions and motivation. She found that the youths nowadays choose to be ignorant of their surroundings, do not want to share their true identity and leave the public to figure out the answer for themselves. They do not have ambitions and behave like moving corpses with no inspirations. These youths, especially the Muslims, tend to give up easily. To them, all exams are difficult and if they fail, there is no point in trying again.
Next was a slide presentation on an interview with teenagers who suggested spending time in CCAs, reading books and beneficial activities out of school. The talk ended with another performance, this time by Darussalam Youth Gang. They sang a song ’Sebelum Cahaya’. “It was very touching and meaningful”, said the host, Ustaz Faisal of Masjid Hasanah.
So, what are you guys waiting for? Do attend the upcoming and subsequent ‘Cakap Pasal Remaja’!
