For The Moeslim in The World

NEW Year OF ISLAM
New Year 1432 H. At the turn of the year in which the Hijri new year a few days earlier than the solar year. BC where the new year was celebrated with great fanfare, orgies everywhere, fireworks mark the sinking of the sun come a year earlier on the eastern horizon marking the arrival of the new year.

Muslims are now welcome the new year 1432H, earlier than in AD. Aware of the nature of the new year pilgrimage, Muslims as a people should be the best and good role models to others must have a way and manner that upholds the doctrine of revelation in welcoming the new year hijra, in order to distinguish the ways and customs of others.

As the Muslim Ummah, the Ummah of Prophet Muhammad SAW, we should welcome the New Year is determined by God as the year used in determining the time in running the Islamic Shari'a. How To commemorate the new year as sabdakan Prophet: "Whoever fasted the day at the end of the month Dzuhijjah and fasting day at the beginning of the month of Muharram, he really has shut down years ago with the fast and the opening years to come with fasting.

In the early dawn of the Islamic Hijri that is beginning to dawn at the start with the Pilgrimage of the Prophet Muhammad with the sabiqulan awwalun from Mecca to Medina. That milestone in the history of Islam, the Muslims, proclaimed to the world. The arrival of the Islamic new year due to a rather quiet for so long oppressed Muslims and exaggerated use of the hijra calendar in BC than in everyday life. This culture led to the Muslims themselves do not remember the months in Islam except Ramadan, Shawwal and Zulhijjah only.

This among other big businesses destroy the kuffar and Muslims away from the heart of Islam, including Muslims sure do not appreciate the years of pilgrimage in life. Rather rare Muslims congratulate the new year, the Muslim culture has been colonized by the kuffar. Could it be that Muslims are capable of initiating the re-use of the new year hijra. The answer lies in action and realize the seriousness of Muslims. If the use of too hard then maybe we emigrated we are able to move from system to system ignorant of Islam.

Let us emigrated from ignorance to Islam, from falsehood to haq, from system to system kufar Islam, from the Darul Darul Islam kufar, kufr to faith, weak to strong, lost to truth, darkness to light, the reward of sin, backward to forward . Therefore let us realize that if we want to restore the spirit moved, as was done by the Prophet Muhammad and his companions so that Islam can rule the world then we must return to Islam in the "kaffah" or totality in all aspects of life. As we all know hijra of the Prophet Muhammad `alaihi wasallam shallalahu from Mecca to Medina has brought great changes to the civilization of mankind, a change from the time of ignorance towards civilization madaniah under the auspices of the divine light in other words the Prophet sallallaahu` alaihi wasallam most fundamental change in life, of life that has no civilization to the life of the gracious forgiveness and compassion.

The example given by the Prophet sallallaahu `alaihi wasallam to us all, providing an important inspiration to build a new civilization in the future, we can take heed how he began to build the civilization of Islam induvidual levels to better social level. At the individual level Rosullalah hakidah Nafsiah enforce the upholding hakidah within every human being. This implies that everything we want to change it must begin by making a change from yourself. And more widespread changes to build a shared commitment toward the creation of an order of life that is applied to the Medina.

Rasullalah shallalahu `alaihi wasallam build a concept of` sya `yah riah istima the legal concept that includes law enforcement community, social, political, security, culture and civics. In Medina, we are witnessing what is known as equality before the law and government, practiced in a dignified and civilized, in Medina, we also see how the law is enforced in a straightforward, as well as cooperation among groups of different religious beliefs, of course there are many valuable lessons we learn from the Prophet, because that's not an exaggeration if I use a very happy occasion, to menyeruhkan to all Muslims in this country to always learn, explore and actualize these things in everyday life.

Among the variety of important Islamic events, events that move actually occupy the main position. Therefore, this event not only marks a new chapter established the Islamic calendar by Umar bin Khattab, but also a turning point in Islamic civilization constructed brilliantly. That's why, each year we commemorate the events of the Islamic new year move. The hope, of course, in addition to roll back the cliches phenomenal event, it is also trying to pick up the actual meaning of hijra and contextual.

The peak moment of the glories of Islamic history through Hijriyah should be regarded as a non-violent revolution is the first time in history. In a short amount of time could change the face of Muhammad Madina city of a discriminatory pattern of society, primordialist-be fanatical and exclusive community is open, egalitarian, and filled with the values ​​of brotherhood. The city of Madina who initially always covered by the conflict between the tribes into a community filled with the spirit of the collective to establish a new civilization.

The success of this very reason that Michael Hart in The 100: A Ranking of the Most influental Person in History has placed Muhammad in the first place. Muhammad not only successfully build a new civilization of Islam but also able to combine the secular and religious elements in a concoction of civilization Madina. Muhammad did not just appear as a religious teacher who always donated his spiritual message, but he also appears as a just and wise statesman, remember!! A statesman who is able mememimpin people. Islam has been put not only as a religious ritual, which contains guidelines, but also as an ethical-moral is always live in the community. Because that's Apostle sent not only to take care of the ritual, but is capable of enforcing law sebagaikholifatullah-running legal and regulatory laws based on the Quran and Sunnah.

Realize the majesty of history "migrated" this is not err when Muslims set a new year with reference to the history Hijriyah. This means that Islam is not a new chapter opened with the grandeur of a figure such as with the birth of the Prophet. Islam, however, begin each new piece with the spirit of the birth of a new civilization of Islam in Madina.

What maketh Hijriyah as expected with the Islamic new year? On the 1st of Muharram 1433, which later on December 7, 2010 to coincide with the re-Muslims commemorate the sacred history. Already one thousand four hundred twenty-seven years of this event passed. However, since it is also the spirit Hijriyah never eaten old age because it is always alert and refreshed with the celebration every year. Therefore, whenever the Muslims celebrate the new year once it refreshed the spirit of Islam.

Each year the Muslims again reminded of the golden memory of its history. And, every year the spirit and meaning of this Hijriyah will be a revitalizing force and able to encourage the spirit of Islam. Surely the spirit of emigration is expected to be a new spirit for Muslims in history to start at this moment and in the future. Therefore, must be internalized within the meaning Hijriyah ourselves and processed into a noble and dynamic attitude in arranging a better future.

Indonesia view of this fact seems to undergo the legal history of a civilization. Surely these people do not interpret "emigrated" to the physical movement like "move" his Prophet leaving Makkah. What can be done by this nation is a meaningful move. That is, the Indonesian people need the spirit of "migrated" from the economic downturn, social, political and legal to enlighten civilization. Civilization that better ensure the welfare society, openness and respect for human values.

The new year was supposed to be a momentum Hijriyah to reflect on the existence of Indonesia at the nadir point. For this reason, Hijriyah which is observed by Muslims and also the nation Indonesia this time is expected to be a reflection of this nation long to knit the actual change, which is substantive, productive and populistik. The spirit of emigration will be the capital to restore the excitement of the change initiative. Therefore, it is lost and wasted when Hijriyah we will commemorate together was limited to the ceremonial reflection.

At this moment the Indonesian people the opportunity to uncover the meaning and spirit of civility Hijriyah for himself. Hijrah means, the change to build a new civilization as the Prophet left Mecca and form a new community of civilized. May the nation Indonesia is able to "migrate" from the suffering that membelitnya toward civilized nation.
