Peluk Isteri

 Seorang suami yang memeluk isterinya untuk sekurang-kurangnya 10 saat setiap pagi akan panjang umurnya lima tahun. Pakar motivasi Datuk Dr. Mohd. Fadzilah Kamsah berkata, fakta berdasarkan kajian oleh seorang pakar di Jerman mengenai hubungan antara sentuhan dan tahap kesihatan.

`Seseorang itu boleh panjang umur jika memeluk isterinya setiap hari kerana pelukan dan sentuhan boleh menyebabkan tubuh manusia mengeluarkan pelbagai hormon termasuk endorfin yang baik untuk kesihatan tubuh.

`Bagaimanapun, sebagai seorang Islam kita tidak harus lupa ajal dan maut terletak di tangan Allah,” katanya ketika memberi syarahan bertajuk Perkahwinan dan Seks: Penawar dan Rawatan Bagi Banyak Penyakit’ di Persidangan Ketiga Perubatan Daripada Perspektif Islam anjuran Pusat Perubatan Universiti Malaya di Hotel Sheraton Subang.

Hormon endorfin adalah sejenis bahan kimia semula jadi yang bertindak sebagai penahan sakit dan mengurangkan keresahan. Jelasnya, selain mempunyai kesan positif dari segi saintifik dan kesihatan sentuhan, pelukan dan gurau senda antara suami dan isteri juga merupakan sunah Rasulullah s.a.w.

Tambah beliau, ada kajian di Amerika Syarikat (AS) juga mendapati pelukan suami dapat mengurangkan tahap kolesterol dan meningkatkan kesihatan isteri.

`Oleh itu suami yang inginkan isterinya menurunkan berat badan digalakkan peluk isterinya lebih kerap,” katanya disambut dengan gelak ketawa oleh peserta persidangan itu.

Jelas beliau, hubungan seks dalam penuh rasa kasih sayang juga dapat membantu pasangan untuk awet muda dan berketerampilan menarik.

`Wanita yang mempunyai kehidupan seks yang baik dan bahagia akan lebih cenderung untuk menghiasi diri,” kata Fadzilah.

Integrity: Let us always be honest

 THE full-page advertisement on "Integrity " (NST, Nov 6) by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission is to be commended. It was an eye-catching advertisement with a large picture of an eye watching us.
It had the words "Integrity is doing the right thing even if nobody is watching" at the top and the statement "Let's make a difference, fight corruption" at the bottom.

Integrity is defined as the quality of being honest and of always having high moral principles.


This moral element has to be instilled in our thoughts, words and actions.

However, we have people in our workplace who show commitment and dedication only in the presence of their bosses or colleagues. When people are watching, they work hard to impress their bosses and others.

But when there is no one in the office, they slow down and relax.


Integrity, as the catchphrase goes, is doing the right thing even if nobody is watching.

True integrity is displayed by how we act and react to our thoughts and actions.

This is a fundamental element that needs to be given serious thought in the workplace for increased productivity.


Every person should work and give the best all the time, and not just when someone is watching.

In this respect, teachers, as role models and educators of our children, should have the highest integrity and moral principles.

The words "Integrity is doing the right thing even if nobody is watching" can apply to teachers in two aspects.

Teachers should go to class according to the time-table and perform all their academic and co-curricular duties as scheduled.

When the head teacher is in school, teachers work hard.

But the moment the head teacher leaves the school, the teachers relax and congregate in the staff room to do their own work, giving truth to the adage that when the cat is away, the mice will play.

Though this is not a common occurrence in our schools, teachers should work with integrity.

The other aspect is with the usage of stationery provided by the school.

There have been instances of teachers taking more than what is required and using them for personal use.

They usually misuse A4 paper, printers, photocopiers and even the telephones.

Some also use computers, laptops and compact discs for their own use.

Many justify this by saying everyone is doing it.

They also feel they can get away with it as nobody is watching them.

We should do the right thing all the time because God is watching us all the time and we are accountable to Him for our thoughts, words and actions.
