Just a few days ago, I managed to watch "Syurga Cinta" (yeah, finally!), the movie that was said to be an Islamic movie. Well, what can I say I say other than these people try to make fun of the religion? They are claiming it to be Islamic when truth is none of the elements are relevant to the real Muslimah that they are trying to portray. Whatever they are drawing there are absurd and doesn't make any sense at all.
This is my review of what they call to be the heaven of love that each of us must have, "Syurga Cinta"
1) The producer, director or anyone related to the film making obviously never live in the actual world of a muslim. They never know how to contact with the real muslimah. In this movie, it seems like to get woman wearing hijab is so easy, it's easy to bring them outside of the house and to send them home so late at night and with parents being all okay about it. That is their myth and tale. Reality check, it's not easy for real muslimah who keeps her ikhtilat to go out and to date even with the presence of this little "adik". And real muslimah doesn't go out so easily with a guy. If they ever been in the world of Muslimah even for awhile, they will understand that a girl should not go out with a boy accompanied by little child who rarely lingering around them and send the girl home late at night.
2) They try to portray that very girl in tudung are a good muslimah and have all the wisdom and talking about it like they really mean it. Reality check number 1-not all girl in tudung quiet understand why they are wearing tudung and some of them even did sin worst that those who did not wearing tudung. I am not saying that you should not wearing tudung but if you wear tudung, understand by heart why you are wearing it. That relates to reality check number 2 which is majority who wear tudung do not understand Islam totally. Even the hijab in that movie does not follow what was thought by Islam teaching which is to wear it until you cover your chest.
3) I really like how they use a beautiful quotation but they way they use it is not real. It seems…. Fake. Well, what am I expecting? This is movie that involves acting and acting involves faking a characters.
4) At the end of the movie, the guy proposed to her. Did you see how he proposed to her? SO NOT Islamic! What kind of Islamic proposed that requires the guy to get down on his knee and ask the girl's hand in marriage with ring? That is so NOT Islamic! Whatever happens to "merisik"? And for a single girl, it should go through her parents (or in this movie's case, her grandpa), not like this! 1stly, this is western way of proposing. 2ndly, she is not a widow or divorcee.
5) And the beginning of the movie, showing scene at the club with women wearing something like nothing, dancing that involves heavy touching and drinking and smoking. What was that??? Those were so inappropriate to be shown to little kids. I was so embarrassed that I skipped that part as I was watching it with 8 and 10 years old my brothers. Okay, that was on the CD I can definitely skip, what about those who bring the whole family to cinema? Obviously, they, the film maker, did not put their head totally while making the movie. They should learn from Western where they really study the environment, the history. Like how they made Kingdom of Heaven, they really study the characters of Salahuddin Al-Ayubi. I really want to ask the producer, did they study the image, characteristics of the real, total muslimah who practice religion totally? Later they will claim Islam is rigid when the truth of is, they are the one who refuse to study Al-Quran, how Allah wants protect a woman's dignity not the way they are depicting.
This movie honestly lower down the value of a muslimah who practice Islam in total. They honestly have no respect to those who really practice the religion. People will think muslimah is stupid cause easily fooled and have no self respect for without difficulty, fell for a guy just because he wants to learn about religion.
Bak kata orang melayu, terhutang diri, tergadai body.
Unrelevant at all…
