Mental Rotation

Researchers claimed that men are better compared to women in doing mental rotation..

But, I think, personally, it depends on the individual.. whether you are a man or woman, we are the same..eheh..(pls noted: i'm not feminist or sexist)

=)

Ok, that is not the point. The point here is, we want to give 'soul' to this mental rotation.

My penny's opinion says, we should and always should looking to all perspectives about one issue in order to get a complete puzzle. Doing this mental rotation, actually looking to others' perspectives about ONE shape only.

If you look a book through a mirror for example, you will see the text or the font of the book is reflected thus it will make you difficult to read the text. But, it is the same book, and it is just a different way to look at the book (by using the mirror). Hence, it will give you a new view/perspective which it is also TRUE about the book.

There are many 'moral of the stories' that you will get from it, right?
I just rest my case~

Job n Satisfaction

Once upon a time, there was an old couple. They were working as vegetable seller in a market almost 30 years in order to raise their five kids. They were going to work every day every morning. All of their kids were successful in their own life and gave the pocket money to their parents every month and never fail to do so. The question is, why was the couple still working hard as vegetable seller although they had enough money? The answer is simple, by working hard every day, it made them feeling fulfil in life and they were satisfied with their job although only as vegetable seller. It was not the money reason.

This story makes us think that money is not the only matter to make people who are working satisfied with their jobs. It is more to feeling of happiness with the job and how far the hardest job is, it never make us feeling unmotivated or giving up to continue struggling with the job. In Islam, sincerity and intention are the primary factors that make people satisfied with whatever we are working for. Islam teaches the Muslims and actually to all people, to set the intention before doing something good because of Allah in order to get reward from Him. But, if we look closer, getting rewards is not the only reason in order to satisfy, getting motivated by setting the ‘good intention’ also can lead to satisfaction in working and life as well.

Saidina Ali dan ilmu forensik

Sebenarnya, sudah lama ilmu forensik berakar umbi dalam Islam. Ketika zaman Khalifah Umar, terjadi suatu peristiwa di mana seorang wanita Ansar telah meminati seorang lelaki yg amat tampan rupanya. Wanita tersebut telah berusaha bersungguh-sungguh untuk memenangi hati lelaki tampan itu. Namun usahanya hanya sia-sia.

Pada suatu hari, dek kerana terlalu mahukan lelaki tersebut, wanita berkenaan telah menuduh lelaki itu mahu memperkosanya dengan menunjukkan kesan air mani di pakaiannya. Beberapa wanita telah memeriksa pakaian wanita tersebut dan mereka semua mempercainya bahawa kesan kotoran itu adalah air mani yang telah kering. Khalifah Umar juga hampir-hampir mempercainya sehinggalah Saidina Ali menuangkan air panas yang mendidih ke atas pakaian wanita tersebut.

Wanita Ansar tersebut menggelabah setelah kesan kotoran tersebut telah bertukar menjadi pepejal yang berwarna putih dan akhirnya dia mengaku bahawa telah menggunakan putih telur dan mengesatnya ke atas pakaian dan pehanya.

Nah, peristiwa ini bukan sahaja menunjukkan kebijasanaan Saidina Ali tetapi Saidina Ali telah menggunakan ilmu forensik dalam mencari kebenaran.
