DAVID MOYES interview: I used to just want to get out of Old Trafford alive... but this is my team now, I'm in charge
DAVID MOYES interview: I used to just want to get out of Old Trafford alive... but this is my team now, I'm in charge
He is less than a month into his tenure as Manchester United manager and already David Moyes is beginning to understand what it means to be in charge of the world’s most famous football club.
Having spent the last 13 days in Thailand, Australia and now Japan, Moyes has already found himself having to handle the ongoing issue surrounding Wayne Rooney while trying to land the first major transfer of his reign, Barcelona’s Cesc Fabregas.
Here, in his first detailed interview with daily newspapers, Moyes takes time out to talk about the pressures of succeeding Sir Alex Ferguson, dealing with the club’s superstars players and how badly he wants to bring United their first trophy of his era.
David, the start to your Barclays Premier League season is not easy. How are you feeling about that?
It could map out our whole season, which is why we are trying to get ourselves right for the opening games. We have to play some of the better teams at the early stages, so we have to make sure we are in good form, but the same applies to them.
Do you have butterflies in your stomach?
Yeah, that comes with the excitement of the job, but it’s more to do with the magnitude of Manchester United and following arguably the greatest manager that football has ever known. You can’t see any manager thinking that would be an easy job, but in the same breath it is a great one because of what I have available and what Sir Alex has left.
I'm in charge: David Moyes (centre) gives his squad a rollicking in Bangkok at the weekend
My team: Moyes talks to his Manchester United players
At ease: David Moyes looks happy and relaxed in Tokyo and (below) tells his new Manchester United players what he expects of them

Maybe if I'm at United for 26 years, we'll end up having 'Moyesy time'
How long before it is ‘your’ team? Is it automatic or does it take six months or maybe a season?
It is my team now. I have taken over, I’m in charge. As I have said, I will use the ex-manager as much as I can because of his knowledge, but it is my team now and I have to take responsibility for that.
Sir Alex said to the supporters after his last home game that it was important to get behind the new manager. How important was that?
Sir Alex said to the supporters after his last home game that it was important to get behind the new manager. How important was that?
I have got to say it showed unbelievable class. Change can be difficult for people but importantly he gave me the confidence and hopefully from that the supporters will give me the opportunity to get started. It was good for the players, too.
Will it be a defining moment when people stop asking you about Sir Alex? Will that be a sign you’ve moved on?
Yes, in a way. I don’t want to mention Sir Alex in every conversation I have but in the same breath I would hate to think in any way that I was disrespecting someone of his level. But I will always respect him, as will Manchester United.
Making his point: David Moyes is settling in as manager of Manchester United
Running the show: But can you spot Moyes among the players and staff
There has to come a time when Manchester United is primarily associated with David Moyes, though, doesn’t there?
Yes, it has to be a new era. Whatever we say, my job now is to make my history. I’m going to follow someone who has made incredible history. I think about Matt Busby’s history and then Alex Ferguson’s history - they could do a film about it. I have to make sure now that my history and my time is something which the fans and people in the future talk about.
So it’s about toeing that line between being respectful and saying this is my time?
Yes it is. It is difficult but I think Sir Alex knows that we’re here to follow good managers. But the one thing about it is he left me with the best team in England and essentially said: ‘Go on, take it on, build on it and try and make it better’.
Does it make the job easier in sense that there have been major changes at rivals too?
They’re new managers coming into new clubs so things can change. I think the Premier League is going to be a little bit more unpredictable than it’s been in the past. I just hope the predictability about it is that Manchester United are beating everybody you expect them to beat.
How does it feel for you now that everyone wants to beat Manchester United?
It’s going to be new to me and something I’m going to have to come to terms with. But I feel comfortable in my position, I feel as if I can be in the job. I’m not saying it’s all going to be right because I don’t think (there) is any manager who always gets it right. But I do feel that I’m in a position I think I can deal with.
A new era: David Moyes gives instruction to star striker Robin van Persie
It'll be no different at Manchester United to how it was at Preston
Do you have to change your mind-set to address these kind of players? Players like Ryan Giggs etc...
A little bit because I’m looking at players who have been in an incredibly successful team over the years. I’ve got to make sure I learn from them. I don’t know it all.
Do you sense that they are judging you?
I think every footballer who I’ve worked with judged the manager. They want to see if he can earn his stripes, they want to see if they can coach, if they can make decisions.
Do you actually manage more or less than you used to?
Maybe a little bit less in many ways. I don’t need to shout as much any more, I’m not quite as intense as I was. But I actually think it’s because the level of player, the level of the standard, steps up and I’m feeling that here as well. There’s been a couple of things I’ve had to say here so far to correct things and the response is, like: ‘Yeah, OK, we’re on with that, we’ve got it done.’ That’s great.
You were 34 and were still playing at centre half when you took over at Preston 16 years ago. Was that as big a challenge as this in some ways?
I’ve got to say I didn’t win many games at the start when I took over at Preston. But when I got the job I just worked and I tried to prepare the teams and it’s the winning which gets you a chance to be involved in the next game. Then win another game and that maybe gets you another month and if you keep going you might actually get a chance of being around the top. So it’ll be no different at Manchester United.
Man in charge: Moyes put his player through their paces in Japan
Why have you recruited Ryan and Phil Neville?
You know that I did want to keep Rene Meulensteen and I wanted Paul Scholes. Paul Scholes, in time when he’s ready to come back, there will be a position for. I wanted to have something which was really involved with Manchester United.
But I also needed it to be David Moyes’s era now so that meant me taking some of my own people. I couldn’t do it without the help of Ryan Giggs while Phil Neville had known a little bit at both clubs. But more importantly he probably knew how I worked at Everton. Phil and Ryan are young so it’s really important in this job that you also keep young open-minded thoughts around you because you don’t want to get too old in your ways.
You have a reputation for driving players hard in training and placing an emphasis on physical fitness. Will that be the same here?
I think I’m going to drive, and I’m going to demand, the best out of players. I’m going to demand that they give me more, or as much as I can get from them.
You have been doing double sessions out here. That’s more than they are used to.
Yeah but I think if you asked them I think they would all say that’s good. They’ve enjoyed it. It’s nothing that I can’t do and that’s the way I judge it really. It’s nothing I couldn’t do.
Listen to me: Danny Welbeck is given guidance by his new manager
If we win the Community Shield, that'll be one of Sir Alex's trophies
Do you sense that the players have been invigorated by your arrival?
I think sometimes when there is a change - and I heard some of the players saying it - you have to impress the new manager. You’ve got a chance...I have got to say I have been incredibly impressed about how the players have gone about their work, I really have.
There’s not been a day when I’ve had people ‘throwing out’ [slacking off]. I think, if anything, they’re enjoying it and they’re asking for more in a way. And to go back to an earlier question, they could be testing me, to see if I’ve got the materials to do the job, because that’s what top footballers do.
Pictures emerged of you rollicking the players in training in Thailand. What was that about?
I just wanted them to make sure they kept doing things right and there were a couple of things I wanted them to make sure they were on top of.
Does it matter to you when you win your first trophy? Does it matter which one it is?
It matters because it’s important I do that and get it put to bed. And it does matter what trophy it is because, if I’d won the Singha Cup in Bangkok it would have been very good, but you know it wouldn’t have counted.
Do you count the Community Shield, like some managers do?
I would have thought that’s a trophy that, if Manchester United went on to win, that would be one of Sir Alex Ferguson’s, because he got the team there. I’m actually hoping to look at the other trophies, that’s my target.
A new generation: Moyes is excited to be taking over from Sir Alex Ferguson
Fergie's time is over: Sir Alex Ferguson waves goodbye at the end of his 26 years at Manchester United
Describe what it was like to bring a team to Old Trafford to play? And how you would like it to be for other managers to bring teams to play you there now...
You came to somewhere that was always full and you knew you were playing, certainly the biggest club in England and arguably the biggest club in the world. So from that point of view you knew that it was also a daunting challenge. Anybody who went there it was like: ‘Oh no, we’re going to Manchester United’.
What were the last 10 minutes there like as an opposing boss? You want that to continue under you?
I want it to continue that way. I remember going there as a manager. You want to get out of Old Trafford alive, that used to be our saying, you know.
You clearly need that fear factor to continue...
We do. I think the players do that, the crowd, the stadium.
We have had ‘Fergie time’ at the end of games for years. Will we get ‘Moyesy time’ now?
Maybe if I’m at Manchester United for 26 years I’ll be able to control it as much as Sir Alex! But at the moment I still see myself as one of the young coaches and young managers in the Premier League. I don’t see myself as one of the old ones. So I think I’ve got a few more years before I get that level of control.

Hired help: Phil Neville (left) and Ryan Giggs are both part of Moyes's coaching set-up
Being manager of Manchester United has to come with an element of fear
What’s the one thing someone said to you since taking the job, that’s stuck with you?
Someone said: 'You’ll do it easy'. But I’m not saying who it was. I don’t take that as a given, because I know it’s going to be really hard at Manchester United. I know that.
Do you want to carve your own dynasty as a Scottish Man United boss after Busby, Ferguson etc?
I’d really like that. I think there has been a succession of Scottish managers - Bill Shankly, Jock Stein, Sir Matt, George Graham - you could go on and on, I’ve probably missed a few out. There have been some really good Scottish managers at the highest level, so if I could in some way be tagged on to the end of that list, because I’d been successful at Manchester United, then I’d be delighted.
Is there extra pressure because of that great lineage of Scottish managers?
Not pressure but I think they’re actually saying: ‘We’re passing the baton on to you, it’s for you take the baton up and be successful’. I think that’s the way it’s been.
Despite the backing of Sir Alex, is there any element of fear of failure?
There’s not that, but I tell you, there’s not one person who would turn around and say: ‘Taking over Manchester United, you think you can walk in there and breeze in and think you can do it easily’. Of course not. There has to be an element of fear that comes with managing a club like Manchester United. It keeps you working, it keeps you focused and helps you try not to take your eye off the ball.
Star attraction: Moyes was upstaged in his press conference in Yokohama by Japan midfielder Shinji Kagawa
Have you looked back through the history of the club in detail?
I will need to get the history books on Manchester United because I wouldn’t be the first person to be able to turn around and tell you every cup final or every game we’ve been involved in or all the players. I couldn’t do that.
But I want to try to get myself as knowledgeable as I can. Looking at the history of the club, of what’s happened, the players, it’s incredible. So I’m really looking forward to getting myself up to speed with that. But hopefully 26 years might give me the chance to get up to speed.

Fabregas for United?
United close in on Fabregas as vice-chair Woodward leaves pre-season tour to push through move for former Gunner
Manchester United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward has left the club's pre-season tour of Australia to push through a move for Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas.
United remain confident of securing the services of Fabregas despite Barca's insistence he wants to remain at the Nou Camp and Arsenal having a £25million first refusal on their former captain.
Senior figures within the Barclays Premier League champions' camp are of the opinion Fabregas wishes to join them, although it may take more than the £26m they bid for him earlier this week.
Target: Manchester United want to add former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas to their midfield
Fabregas played for Arsenal between 2003 and 2011 but has a long-running admiration of the Old Trafford club.
Speaking to a Sunday newspaper ahead of a Champions League semi-final between Arsenal and United in 2009, Fabregas admitted: 'I'm a massive Man United fan. I have no problem saying United are one of the best clubs in the world – even though I want to beat them. They are the best side in the world at the moment – a top, top side and we respect them a lot.'
Woodward's departure comes on the same day United revealed they had turned down a bid from Chelsea for striker Wayne Rooney - a player boss David Moyes has maintained is not for sale.
Bold move: Chelsea have made a bid for Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney
Sportsmail understands the initial offer on Tuesday was £10m cash plus David Luiz or Juan Mata but Chelsea deny involving the two players in their bid.
The London club then returned with a second offer of £22m outright - but that was also rejected by United, who told their Premier League rivals not come back with another offer.
In addition, Everton duo Leighton Baines and Marouane Fellaini have been strongly linked with moves to join their old boss Moyes.
Leaving on a jet plane: Ed Woodward (second right) is no longer in Australia as United try to land Fabregas
There is an acknowledgement at United that the massive shake up during the summer, with the departures of both manager Sir Alex Ferguson and chief executive David Gill have left the club with a bit of catching up to do in the transfer market.
Thus far, the only signing of the summer has been Uruguay Under 20 defender Guillermo Varela, who has not even reported for duty yet.
Thiago Alcantara and Kevin Strootman, who were both strongly linked with United, have opted to join Bayern Munich and Roma respectively, leaving Moyes still needing to sign the additional midfielders he believes are required.

Trial of detective corporal Hassan Hj Ali Basar
Sulu durjana
Cop recounts three meetings with Sulu prince in Tanduo
KOTA KINABALU: In the trial of a policeman for failing to submit information relating to terrorism acts yesterday, a senior police officer testified that he met the self-styled crown prince of the Sultanate of Sulu, Datu Agbimuddin Kiram, thrice to inform him that he (Datu Agbimuddin) had violated the sovereignty of Malaysia.
Senior Assistant Commissioner (SAC) Zulkifli Abd Aziz, 53, told High Court judge Ravinthran N. Paramaguru that the meetings between him and Agbimuddin were held at a house in Kampung Tanduo in Lahad Datu.
“The first meeting was on February 14, 2013 at 2pm. I, together with my two personnel, namely, Assistant Superintendent (ASP) Zulhani Borhan and Corporal Salsagap, went to meet Agbimuddin after I managed to call him the next day after reaching Lahad Datu on February 13, 2013,” he testified during examination-in-chief by DPP Dato’ Nordin Hassan in the trial of the accused, detective corporal Hassan Hj Ali Basari, 58.
The accused, who was attached to the police special branch in Lahad Datu, is alleged to have committed the offence at the office of the special branch chief at Lahad Datu police station between January and March, 2013.
The offence under Section 130M of the Penal Code carries for a maximum jail of seven years or with a fine, or both, on conviction.
To a question from Nordin, the fourth prosecution witness recalled that during the first meeting he had informed Agbimuddin that his action to intrude into Kampung Tanduo with his followers was against Malaysian laws.
“After explaining to Agbimuddin, he thanked me for taking care of Sabah for the past 50 years and said that now is his turn to take care of Sabah,” said Zulkifli, who was then deputy chief of Sabah Special Branch 1.
Zulkifli, who is now the ESSCOM intelligence chief of staff, recalled further that during the first meeting Agbimuddin had given him five documents.
“After he gave me the five documents (which were tendered to the court and marked as exhibits), Agbimuddin said, he would not leave Kampung Tanduo until his brothers, namely, Datu Jamalul Kiram and Datu Ismail Kiram, told him to do so, as civilians had no authority to give him any instructions,” he said.
To another question from Nordin, Zulkifli testified that during their second meeting on February 15, 2013, at 11am, he, together with Datuk Rashid, ASP Noraidin, Inspector Yusri and corporal Salsagap had again advised Agbimuddin and his followers to leave Sabah.
“His response was the same and he said that he is a prince and only his brothers have the authority to tell him to leave Sabah,” Zulkifli recalled, adding that several documents were also given to him during the meeting.
On the third meeting, he said, they again failed to persuade Agbimuddin to leave Sabah immediately before any bloodshed happened and Agbimuddin replied that for them to die is just an ordinary thing as Sabah belonged to the Sultanate of Sulu.
“After that, I met the Sabah Police Chief to discuss this matter and I gave him a suggestion to resolve this crisis by scattering safe passage brochures in the area where Agbimuddin and his followers stayed to ask them to surrender,” he testified further, but none of them surrendered.
Zulkifli recalled that at the time Kampung Tanduo was under tight security where the area was guarded by Royal Sulu Force (RSF), who wore camouflage uniform, and armed with various weapons like M16, M14, Garren, Carbin, pistol and machetes.
In response to another question from Nordin, he said he had never revealed any information in the documentary exhibits orally or written.
He said the information in these documents involved national security.
When asked whether information obtained from several telephone interceptions had been submitted to him, he repleid: “That information was too important but I was never informed about it.”

Transfer target no 1 : Thiago Alcantara
Barca hold crisis talks with Thiago as United agree £5.5m-a-year deal for Spanish star
Barcelona will hold last-ditch talks with Thiago Alcantara to try and persuade the Spain midfielder to turn down a move to Manchester United.
The Premier League champions have agreed personal terms of £5.5million-a-year with Thiago and his father, former Brazil World Cup winner Mazinho, and are confident of wrapping up a £17m transfer.
Barca still hope to persuade the 22-year-old that he will be a ‘leader’ at the club for years to come but he remains unconvinced after struggling to secure a first-team place.
In demand: Thiago Alcantara, with the U21 Euros trophy, has agreed terms with Manchester United
Crisis talks: Barcelona will hold discussions with Thiago in an attempt to get him to stay at the Nou Camp
Thiago has gone on holiday leaving his father and representatives to hold talks with the Spanish champions, and they are expected to tell Barcelona that he wants to quit the Nou Camp for Old Trafford.
United have even gone to the effort of gathering character references on the player and are aware that both Manchester City and Bayern Munich could make a counter offer.
They are understood to have no interest in Napoli striker Edinson Cavani but are continuing to monitor Cristiano Ronaldo’s contract standoff with Real Madrid.
The former United star has been offered £12m-a-year net to stay at the Bernabeu but wants £5m more and is unhappy over a recent comment by Real president Florentino Perez that ‘everything has a limit’.
Hero's return? United are looking into the possibility of re-signing Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo
New boss: David Moyes is looking to stamp his mark on United's etam in his first season in charge

Doa dikabul hidupkan malam nisfu Syaaban
Doa dikabul hidupkan malam nisfu Syaaban
Rasulullah galak umat melakukan solat pada satu pertiga malam, beriktikaf
Pada malam nisfu Syaaban atau pertengahan bulan Syaaban ditekankan supaya umat Islam melakukan solat sunat tahajud dan solat sunat taubat kerana malam itu malam terbaik untuk meminta pengampunan serta rahmat daripada Allah.
Baginda Rasulullah SAW juga menggalakkan umatnya melakukan solat pada satu pertiga malam, serta beriktikaf sepanjang malam kerana tidak mahu amalan diangkat ketika sedang tidur mahupun lalai.
Cara hidupkan malam nisfu Syaaban
Walau bagaimanapun, cara menghidupkan malam nisfu Syaaban seperti dilakukan sebahagian negara Arab seperti Mesir, Syria dan Yaman tidak berlaku pada zaman Rasulullah SAW serta sahabat.
Menurut Dr Yusuf al-Qaradawi dalam menjawab soalan berhubung malam nisfu Syaaban: “Tidak pernah diriwayatkan daripada Nabi SAW dan sahabat bahawa mereka berhimpun di masjid untuk menghidupkan malam nisfu Syaaban, membaca doa tertentu dan solat tertentu seperti yang kita lihat pada sebahagian negeri orang Islam. Bahkan di sebahagian negeri, orang ramai berhimpun pada malam itu selepas maghrib di masjid. Mereka membaca surah Yasin dan solat dua rakaat dengan niat panjang umur, dua rakaat yang lain pula dengan niat tidak bergantung kepada manusia, kemudian mereka membaca doa yang tidak pernah dipetik dari golongan salaf (sahabat, tabiin dan tabi’ tabiin). Ia satu doa yang panjang, menyanggahi nusus (al-Quran dan Sunnah) juga bercanggahan dan bertentang maknanya.
Perhimpunan (malam nisfu Syaaban) seperti yang kita lihat dan dengar berlaku di sebahagian negeri orang Islam adalah bidaah dan diada-adakan. Sepatutnya kita melakukan ibadat sekadar yang dinyatakan dalam nas. Segala kebaikan itu ialah mengikut salaf, segala keburukan itu ialah bidaah golongan selepas mereka, dan setiap yang diadakan-adakan itu bidaah, dan setiap yang bidaah itu sesat dan setiap yang sesat itu dalam neraka.”
Namun, sebahagian ulama di Arab Saudi dan Nusantara tidak bersetuju dengan fatwa dikeluarkan oleh Dr Yusof al-Qardhawi. Mereka menyatakan amalan menghidupkan malam nisfu Syaaban dengan membaca al-Quran, berzikir, berdoa dan qiamulail tidak jauh beza dengan apa dilakukan tabiin daripada penduduk Syam seperti Khalid bin Ma’dan dan Makhul yang termaktub dalam kitab al-Mawahib al-Ladunniyah karangan al-Qasthalani.
Amalan tak menyalahi syarak dibenarkan
Oleh itu, sesuatu amalan yang tidak menyalahi hukum syarak adalah dibenarkan bergantung kepada tahap kemampuan masing-masing.
Baginda Rasulullah SAW juga menggalakkan umatnya melakukan solat pada satu pertiga malam, serta beriktikaf sepanjang malam kerana tidak mahu amalan diangkat ketika sedang tidur mahupun lalai.
Saidatina Aisyah meriwayatkan Nabi tidak tidur pada malam itu seperti diriwayatkan oleh Imam Al-Baihaqi: “Rasulullah SAW telah bangun pada malam (nisfu Syaaban) dan bersembahyang dan sungguh lama sujudnya sehingga aku fikir beliau telah wafat. Apabila aku melihat demikian aku mencuit ibu jari kaki Baginda dan bergerak. Kemudian aku kembali dan aku dengar Baginda berkata dalam sujudnya: “Ya Allah aku pohonkan kemaafan-Mu daripada apa yang akan diturunkan dan aku pohonkan keredaan-Mu daripada kemurkaan-Mu dan aku berlindung kepada-Mu daripada-Mu. Aku tidak dapat menghitung pujian terhadap-Mu seperti kamu memuji diri-Mu sendiri.
Setelah Baginda selesai sembahyang, Baginda berkata kepada Saidatina Aisyah: “Malam ini adalah malam nisfu Syaaban. Sesungguhnya Allah telah datang kepada hambanya pada malam nisfu Syaaban dan memberi keampunan kepada mereka yang beristighfar, memberi rahmat ke atas mereka yang memberi rahmat (membuat amal makruf dan nahi mungkar) dan melambatkan rahmat dan keampunan terhadap orang yang dengki.”
Malam dikabulkan doa
Malam nisfu Syaaban juga digelar malam dikabulkan doa. Imam as-Syafie dalam kitabnya al-Umm berkata: “Telah sampai pada kami bahawa dikatakan sesungguhnya doa dikabulkan pada lima malam iaitu malam Jumaat, malam Aidiladha, malam Aidilfitri, malam pertama pada bulan Rejab dan malam nisfu Syaaban.”
Banyak kelebihan bagi yang menghidupkan malam dengan beribadah seperti firman Allah SWT: “Dan pada sebahagian malam, lakukanlah sembahyang sunat tahajud sebagai satu ibadah tambahan bagimu. Mudah-mudahan Tuhamnu mengangkat kamu ke tempat terpuji.” (Surah al-Israk, ayat 79)
Keajaiban Kaabah Menurut Kajian Saintifik
Firman Allah Ta’ala yang bermaksud: “Allah telah menjadikan Kaabah, rumah suci itu sebagai pusat bagi manusia” (Al-Maa’idah:97)
Makkah ataupun Mekah dengan nama penuhnya Makkah al-Mukarramah terletak lebih kurang 73km daripada timur Jeddah. Makkah merupakan tempat lahirnya Islam serta Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. dan juga tempat baginda menerima wahyu daripada Allah s.w.t.
Makkah ialah kota paling suci bagi umat Islam. Lima kali sehari, lebih kurang 1.5 bilion Muslim tidak kira di mana mereka berada, pasti akan menghadap kiblat di Kota Makkah untuk bersembahyang. Sekurang-kurangnya sekali dalam seumur hidup seseorang Muslim akan mengerjakan haji pada bulan Zulhijjah setiap tahun di tempat tersebut.
Di sini juga terletaknya Al Masjid Al Haram yang mana terdapatnya Kaabah. Mekah merupakan tanah suci di mana berdirinya sebuah struktur hebat iaitu Kaabah yang menjadi lambang dan panduan qiblat untuk semua umat Islam di seluruh dunia.
Menurut sejarah Islam, Kaabah dibina semula 12 kali. Para akademik dan sejarahwan berkata Kaabah dibina semula antara lima hingga 12 kali. Pembinaan pertama Kaabah dilakukan oleh Nabi Adam as. Allah SWT menyatakan dalam al-Quran Kaabah adalah rumah pertama dibina untuk manusia menyembah Allah SWT. Selepas itu, Nabi Ibrahim as dan Nabi Ismail as membina semula Kaabah, seterusnya pembinaan semula Kaabah oleh kaum Quraish Rasulullah mengambil bahagian dalam salah satu daripada pembinaan semula ini sebelum baginda menjadi Rasul. Maka berlakulah beberapa rentetan peristiwa pembinaan semula Kaabah selepas itu.
Berikut adalah 16 perkara tentang Kaabah menurut kajian sains yang tidak diketahui ramai:
1. Mekah adalah kawasan yang mempunyai graviti paling stabil.
2. Tekanan gravitinya tinggi, dan di situlah berpusatnya bunyi-bunyian yang membina yang tidak boleh didengar oleh telinga.
3. Tekanan graviti yang tinggi memberi kesan langsung kepada sistem imun badan untuk bertindak sebagai pertahanan daripada segala serangan penyakit.
4. Graviti tinggi = elektron ion negatif yang berkumpul di situ tinggi.
5. Apa yang diniatkan di hati adalah gema yang tidak boleh didengar tetapi boleh dikesan frekuensinya. Pengaruh elektron menyebabkan kekuatan dalaman kembali tinggi, penuh bersemangat untuk melakukan ibadat, tidak ada sifat putus asa, mahu terus hidup, penyerahan diri sepenuhnya kepada Allah.
6. Gelombang radio tidak boleh mengesan kedudukan Kaabah.
7. Frekuensi radio tidak mungkin dapat membaca apa-apa yang ada di dalam Kaabah kerana tekanan graviti yang tinggi.
8. Malah teknologi satelit pun tidak boleh meneropong apa yang ada di dalam Kaabah. Frekuensi radio tidak mungkin dapat membaca apa-apa yang ada di dalam Kaabah kerana tekanan graviti yang tinggi.
9. Tempat yang paling tinggi tekanan gravitinya, mempunyai kandungan garam dan aliran anak sungai di bawah tanah yang banyak. Sebab itu lah jika bersembahyang di Masjidilharam walaupun di tempat yang terbuka tanpa bumbung masih terasa sejuk.
10. Kaabah bukan sekadar bangunan hitam empat persegi tetapi satu tempat yang ajaib kerana di situ pemusatan tenaga, graviti, zon magnetisme sifar dan tempat yang paling dirahmati.
11. Tidur dengan posisi menghadap Kaabah secara automatik otak tengah akan terangsang sangat aktif hingga tulang belakang dan menghasilkan sel darah.
12. Pergerakan mengelilingi Kaabah arah lawan jam memberikan tenaga hayat secara semula jadi daripada alam semesta. semua yang ada di alam ini bergerak mengikut lawan jam, Allah telah tentukan hukumnya begitu.
13. Peredaran darah atau apa saja di dalam tubuh manusia mengikut lawan jam. Justeru dengan mengelilingi Kaabah mengikut lawan jam, bermakna peredaran darah di dalam badan meningkat dan sudah tentunya akan menambahkan tenaga. Sebab itulah orang yang berada di Mekah sentiasa bertenaga, sihat dan panjang umur.
14. Manakala bilangan tujuh itu adalah simbolik kepada tidak terhingga banyaknya. Angka tujuh itu membawa maksud tidak terhad atau terlalu banyak. Dengan melakukan tujuh kali pusingan sebenarnya kita mendapat ibadat yang tidak terhad jumlahnya.
15. Larangan memakai topi, songkok atau menutup kepala kerana rambut dan bulu roma (lelaki) adalah ibarat antena untuk menerima gelombang yang baik yang dipancarkan terus dari Kaabah. Sebab itu lah selepas melakukan haji kita seperti dilahirkan semula sebagai manusia baru kerana segala yang buruk telah ditarik keluar dan digantikan dengan nur atau cahaya yang baru.
16. Selepas selesai semua itu baru lah bercukur atau tahalul. Tujuannya untuk melepaskan diri daripada pantang larang dalam ihram. Namun rahsia di sebaliknya adalah untuk membersihkan antena atau reseptor kita dari segala kekotoran supaya hanya gelombang yang baik saja akan diterima oleh tubuh.
Wallahu’alam….
