A reminder

"Wahai
orang² yang beriman! Jika datang kepada kamu seorang fasiq membawa
satu
berita, maka selidikilah (untuk menentukan) kebenarannya, supaya
kamu
tidak menimpakan sesuatu kaum dengan perkara yang tidak diingini -
dengan
sebab kejahilan kamu mengenainya - sehingga menyebabkan kamu
menyesali apa
yang telah kamu lakukan."

(Surah Al-Hujrat
: 6)

-----------
Miejr sent this email but how many of us really comprehend the verses.
Ambil lah iktibar dan selidikilah sesuatu sebelum buat assumptions dan
menuduh sesuatu secara membuta-tuli. Assumption and allegations w/o
facts are the mother of all f***k ups (ayat gaban) or screw-ups (ayat proper).

I know for a fact because I did it too and all hail broke loose. It was a lesson learned. So now i've become wary and careful when talking to people (even those who are close to me). Not to assume things and judge people based on one side. I try to listen to both and deduce. This goes with the reshuffling exercise too. There are irresponsible person(s) who tries to disrupt the exercise and thinks negatively about everything.
