A certain Jewish king, the same who is referred to in the Sura "Signs of the Zodiac," I made up his mind to utterly exterminate the Christian faith, and with that view he set up a huge idol, and issued commands that all who refused to worship it should be cast into the fire. Thereupon his officers seized a Christian woman with her babe, and as she refused to worship it, they cast the babe into the fire.

Sekitar empat jam setelah saya upload versi pertama tulisan ini, admin#2 situs ini menelepon saya. Ia yang sangat saya kasihi itu membagikan informasi sangat berharga tentang penerjemahan istilah bahasa asing dan pedoman pembentukan istilah dalam bahasa Indonesia. Ia juga mengkritik –dengan cara yang sangat manis, tentunya—alur bertutur saya yang kali ini, menurut ungkapan puitiknya, agak ‘bergeletar’ (you know why, Dear). Tapi yang paling membuat saya jadi terpacu –tanpa kehilangan pijakan-- adalah ketika ia menutup pembicaraan panjang kami dengan statement yang sungguh khas dia, statement yang takkan keluar dari kritikus atau editor manapun, saya yakini itu! Ia berkata: “Tulisanmu cantik, Stella. Cantik sekali. Aku mau kamu jadikan dia lebih dari itu. Jadikan dia jelita, seperti dirimu.” Anything for you, mon amour éternel! |

by Jalal ad-Din Rumi A certain Jewish king used to persecute the Christians, desiring to exterminate their faith. His Vazir persuaded him to try a stratagem, namely, to mutilate the Vazir himself, and expel him from his court, with the intent that he might take refuge with the Christians, and stir up mutual dissensions amongst them. The Vazir's suggestion was adopted. He fled to the Christians, and found no difficulty in persuading them that he had been treated in that barbarous way on account of his attachment to the Christian faith. He soon gained complete influence over them, and was accepted as a saintly martyr and a divine teacher. |
