Some time we ask, why terorism
arise recently, after event of WTC destruction. Whereas, terorism may arise
before. I think it has any relationship with George Bush statement after WTC
destruction, that the crusade has begined. So, what is the source of radicalism
in Islam ?
If we note some recently event,
some people (expert) try to look for what is the main reason of radicalism in Indonesia. They discuss this
popular theme in several conference, and the conclusion is, the source of
radicalism in Indonesia is material teaching in pesantren, that include islamic
ideology and exlusive doctrine. The solution of this problem is change the
fuction of pesantren, that at first as spreader of ideology to only as educator
of islamic material not islamic ideology and the pioneer of economical growing.
If we back to about 1300 years
ago and later, at this time, Islamic caliphate became the central of culture
and civilization in the world, especially in Fatimid. In this era, all of
religion free to worship to each their God. So with the islamic sect, they are
free to do their sect, only in field of law, they have to follow Shia concept.
Moreover, there are public officials with christian religion, but they expert
in it fields. In this period, all people feel safe, properous, and the nation
grow up in all field, politic, economy, knowledge, agriculture and other. There
is no radicalism from Islam as majority people to other. We know, that islamic
ideology hold strongly by Shia. But it is not become a reason of arise ofradicalism. So, islamic ideology not one of a reason of radicalism.
If we note to the event later.
There is much effort from several person/community to excommunicate Islam.
Something that avoid in Islam, done by them, like making caricature of the
prophet, burning of al-Quran, spread insult film like “innocent of Islam”, and
the other. Of course, this deeds, make moslems in the world angry, and motivate
them to provide resistence. In the other case, moslems always be considered
wrong when moslems try to guide the purity of Islam. When there are some people
who claim to be a prophet after Muhammad, then moslems try to avoid this,
because has tarnish of purity of Islam doctrine that state there is not prophet
after Muhammad, the moslems will be judged wrong, because they have against the
expression freedom. Let we think. What will we do if some people insult our
family ?, just quiet or defend our family. Likewise, some case, rise the movement
that named himself as Islam, but the
doctrine so far from real Islam, like Lia Eden, Ahmadiah, and other. This movement can make Islam
doctrine not clear. The moslems feel have obligation to guide the purity of
Islam, and it be called as radicalism in Islam by other group.
The conclusion of this analysis
is, the source of radicalism in Islam is not the islamic ideology its self, but
the source of radicalism in Islam is intolerant from other group, that
deliberate ignite the angry of moslems. If all of people in this world have the
same thought, to secure the world, there is no will to distrube the other, and
effort all of interest with justice way, we sure there is radicalism in the
world.
