Pisang Objectives
Jumaat, 3 Julai 2009
PISANG is the acronym for Professional Islamic Support and Nurture Group. It is a not-for-profit organisation registered in England.
PISANG provides services to everyone regardless of religion, sex, age or race. Although we follow Islamic guidelines in providing our services, you do not have to embrace the Islamic faith to benefit from our services.
1. To promote Islamic Medical Practice. Pisang believes that some diseases are caused by Jinn (unseen creation of God) and these creatures can cause physical illnesses or psychological changes in human behaviour. The western medical discipline does not recognise Jinn can cause illnesses. This is a weakness in their disease diagnosis methodology, making it impossible to give the correct treatment if the diagnosis itself is wrong.
Pisang view that those affected by Jinn can also display a change in behaviour and in most cases will require proper support and counselling. Pisang promotes the use of alternative therapy using Islamic medical practice which has no side effect on the patient. This will be combined with proper counselling service to fasten the path to recovery.
Through our research activities, our research section aims to bridge the western medical discipline and Islamic medical treatment discipline.
2. To provide support and nurture. Pisang believes that people can be moulded to be an asset to the community through proper and systematic support and nurture programme. Pisang will use Islamic values and teachings in the programme with emphasis on community relations between Muslims and non-Muslims, and the need for Muslims to be proactive in the British community and be partners in nation-building.
Pisang promotes Civilisational Islam. Civilisational Islam is a holistic approach of Islam, taking account of various aspects including human capital development, knowledge enhancement, and other disciplines needed for nation-building. Civilisational Islam can be an effective method of convincing our youth to think about problem-solving and nation building and move away from unproductive rhetorics that can lead to extremism.
The following individuals are advisors to Pisang on Civilisational Islam:
a) Prof. Dr Sidek Baba, International Islamic University Malaysia. He is also a member of the advisory panel on Civilisational Islam for the Malaysian government.
b) Prof. Dr. Yusof Othman, Director of Institute of Civilisational Islam, National University of Malaysia. He is also a member of the advisory panel on Civilisational Islam for the Malaysian government.
3. To provide counselling services.
Over the years Pisang members have contributed in various aspects to the community:
1. Mobilisation of the resident Malay community in the UK to be more pro-active in their local community, regardless of ethnicity or religion (since 2002)
2. Nurturing Muslim youths (Malays and non-Malays) (since 2003)
3. Leadership programme for girls (2008)
4. Intellectual Discourse on Civilisational Islam (2008)
5. Provide marital counselling
6. Provide parenting counselling to single parents
7. Leadership training for Malay students
8. Teaching Islam to disconnected (hard-to-reach) Muslim converts
9. Counselling for youth with family problems
