Knowledge Management in Islam

Life is all about planning, managing and organizing. Nowadays, every single thing including tiny programs in our daily life needs proper management technique and skills. It is very crucial to each and every one of us. Key point here is how smart are you in managing something.

Knowledge is very general and wide; it is like an asset to us, not only important but also comprises a range of strategies and practices to manage. We will gain knowledge explicit or implicitly by any means regardless of time and place. Knowledge involves creating, identifying, capturing, organizing, disseminating, reusing and sharing the knowledge among communities. If once upon a time before we suffered from lack of information, today, information flows at an unprecedented rate. We have thus moved from shortage to, in some cases, glut or excessive knowledge. How to deal with too much information is a major challenge for knowledge management.

According to a journal that I’ve read, KM started earlier in Europe and Australia. However, Islam has long started knowledge management by converting Al Quran verses into the explicit Al Quran today. The first KM in Islam started when Muhammed (saw) first commit the Revelation of Quran to memory after Jibreel (as) had conveyed it to him. Quran was not transmitted in one single shot but was documented stage by stage; this shows how well Allah has managed the knowledge. Since the first ayat that had been revealed to prophet until how he delivers the knowledge to believers, it had been organized efficiently and precisely by our beloved prophet. Skills are important.

The life of a Muslim has been pretty well defined with clear boundaries and limitations to enable us to focus towards the hereafter. Without proper management, knowledge may harm human. People make use of knowledge to do harm which won’t benefit others but themselves. They misuse the knowledge that had been given by Allah not to benefit mankind but to create disaster to ruin community throughout universe. Thus, knowledge is needed to enhance the teaching, methods and practices of QURAN and HADITH create good value for all mankind. The need to manage knowledge and encourage discussions in KM in Islam is to provide the platform for us to go back to basic - to QURAN and HADITH. KM in Islam will highlight the malpractices of Muslims today - the government, politics, economy, social system, legal practice, ethics, banking, cultural etc. With indigenous Islamic knowledge, we will be able to initiate a global KM in Islam and ultimately set some standards according to Islamic perspective

Pentingnya tidur dalam usaha pengurangan berat badan

Hampir semua orang memiliki pendapat sama tentang penyebab obesitas (kegemukan). Kalau tak berkaitan dengan makanan berlebih, pastilah pembakaran kalori yang terlalu sedikit kerana kurang aktiviti seharian

Para saintis sekarang banyak menganggap obesiti tak ubahnya semacam epidemik dengan gaya hidup dan pola makan yang salah. . Sebuah jurnal internasional tentang obesiti belum lama ini menjelaskan beberapa hal yang bisa memicu terjadinya obesiti disamping masalah makanan.

Sedikit berbeda dengan pendapat banyak orang bahkan kalangan ahli medis yang menyatakan kalau kurang tidur dapat menyebabkan tubuh bertambah kurus, penelitian yang dilakukan para ahli dalam bidang obesitas ini mengatakan sebaliknya, dan tentu saja dengan penjelasan menyangkut bukti-bukti yang boleh membuktikan pernyataan itu.

Dari penelitian tersebut, didapatkan orang yang tidur kurang dari 7 jam sehari memiliki risiko mendapatkan BMI (Indeks Massa Tubuh) lebih besar daripada orang yang tidur dengan jam lebih banyak. Data awal yang dihimpun US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey ini didukung US Nurses Health Study yang mengadakan studi terhadap 68 ribu wanita usia 16 tahun dan menemukan diantara responden tersebut yang memiliki jam tidur rata-rata 5 jam memiliki berat badan lebih dibanding kelompok yang tidur selama 6 jam dan lebih rendah lagi pada kelompok 7 jam sehari.

Bukti ini mereka hubungkan secara timbal balik dengan teori bahwa obesiti turut mengganggu tidur dimana salah satu pengaruhnya adalah mengurangi kualiti tidur seperti susah bernafas atau sering terjaga. Sedangkan tahap awal yang menjelaskannya merupakan salah satu peranan hormon Leptin yang berfungsi menghambat pengaturan sinyal lapar, bangun dan selera makan menurun sementara Ghrelin sebaliknya meninggi pada keadaan kurang tidur, ini memiliki hubungan dengan kurangnya kualitas tidur setelah metabolisme berlebihan. Kadar Leptin ini dijumpai menurun sekitar 18% sedangkan Ghrelin meningkat 28%, akibatnya sering menimbulkan rasa lapar.

Hasil ini belakangan turut didukung National Sleep Foundation pada surveynya menemukan kebanyakan penduduk AS mengalami penurunan jam tidur pada tahun-tahun belakangan berpengaruh pada peningkatan kes obesiti di negara tersebut. Semua makhluk berdarah panas termasuk manusia memiliki pengaturan temperatur tubuh berdasarkan lingkungan melalui metabolisme dan pengeluaran peluh. Sistem penjagaan ini memerlukan energi kecuali kita berada dalam zon termonetral sekitar 27 darjah Celcius.

Perubahan temperatur yang terjadi pada beberapa dekade terakhir akibat berbagai sebab pada iklim alam ternyata diperkirakan turut penting, dimana pengaturan iklim termasuk penggunaan mesin pendingin dan pemanas ruangan ikut mempengaruhi berat badan kita. Pada iklim nyaman yang berbeza2 untuk setiap individu energi yang dikeluarkan untuk pengaturan tersebut lebih sedikit. Pengeluaran peluh membakar energi seperti yang banyak diketahui dan cuaca panas berperanan dalam menahan nafsu makan manusia.
