Steve Jobs, pengasas Apple, Berketurunan Muslim?

Tadi aku terbaca satu artikel disini. Penulis blog terbabit mendedahkan bahawa bapa kepada mendiang steve jobs berketurunan muslim. Urm. Aku tatau based on what dia mengatakan bapa kepada mendiang steve jobs ialah muslim. 

Artikel di bawah neh dikatakan sebagai sandaran kepada hujah terbabit ;

On the list of biological parents who gave up children who went on to become famous is Abdulfattah John Jandali, the biological father of Apple genius Steve Jobs.

Like his son, Jandali is a workaholic. He is vice-president of a Reno casino and has no interest in retirement, according to New York Post writer Georgina Dickinson. He is 80. And he would love to see Jobs before one of them dies. 

“This might sound strange, though, but I am not prepared, even if either of us was on our deathbeds, to pick up the phone to call him,” Jandali told Dickenson. “Steve will have to do that, as the Syrian pride in me does not want him ever to think I am after his fortune.”

Jobs, 56, stepped down as CEO of Apple after launching the age of the digital lifestyle by democratizing computers. His inventions upended personal computing, the music industry, publishing and Hollywood, putting what were once powers held by only a few into the hands of the masses.

Jandali and his girlfriend, Joanne Carole Schieble (later Simpson), met at the University of Wisconsin, where he was a professor and she was a student, according to previous press reports. They wanted to marry, but Simpson’s father wouldn’t let her marry a Syrian immigrant, Jandali said. Simpson left and when their son was born in 1955, she gave him up for adoption. A few months later her father died and she married Jandali.

“If we had just held off for a few months, then we would have been able to raise Steve as our own, but sadly, that was not the case,” Jandali said.

“We often spoke of our son and how we both wished he was with us, especially when Joanne gave birth to Steve’s sister, Mona. But nothing to do with Joanne and I was ever meant to be.”-Sumber asal-

Baca betul2 artikel di atas, tang mana satu yang mengatakan bahawa Abdulfatah John Jandali beragama islam? Adakah kerana dia berasal dari syria maka dia automatik jadi orang islam? Bagi pandangan aku, mengatakan abdulfatah sebagai orang islam hanya bersandarkan ;

1. Namanya = abdulfatah

2. Negara asalnya = syria

Adalah penghujahan yang lemah. Bukan apa, sebab si abdulfatah neh ;

1. Terlibat dalam perniagaan kasino

2. Melakukan seks di luar perkahwinan yang sah

Ini kan memburukkan imej muslim? Pada asalnya nampak macam nak bangga sebab steve jobs seorang usahawan dan peniaga serta pencipta yang sangat berjaya rupanya ada kaitan dengan keturunan seseorang yang menganuti islam tapi pada akhirnya last2 islam kena ketuk balik.

Lebih tepat jika dia dikaitkan berketurunan arab [syria] berbanding muslim. Berdasarkan cara hidup bapa mendiang, aku tak rasa dia seorang muslim ataupun penganut islam. Kalau ye pun dilahirkan sebagai seorang muslim, mungkin itu dulu tetapi dia tidak mengamalkan lagi ajaran terbabit [keluar dari islam]. Lagipun andai benar dia muslim, sudah tentu ia akan diwar2kan. Ini satu benda yang barat cukup suka hebahkan.  

Tapi neh pandangan peribadi aku. Namun lain orang lain pandangan mereka. Cuma rasa tertarik nak menulis sebab terbaca hebahan artikel berkenaan isu neh di facebook. Siap ada orang yang rasa bangga lagi. Hahaha.. nak bangga apa tah. Aku pun hairan. 

Kreativiti dan inovasi steve jobs memang memberikan impak yang besar kepada dunia tetapi janganlah buat lawak sampai mengaitkan semua benda dengan islam. Nanti orang menyampah. Sikit2 nak kaitkan dengan islam. Asal yang hebat2, bagus2 mesti ada kaitan dengan islam. Kalau benda betul, takpe. Ini benda yang rasanya macam tak betul je.

Apa pun, mendiang memang hebat. Walaupun dia bukan orang islam, itu tidak menjadikan aku tak boleh kagum dengan bakat dan kepandaian yang dimiliki mendiang. Sekian.
