JAKARTA Memories of today, nine years ago the Minister of Religion (Menag) Lukman Hakim Saifuddin emphasized that a da'wah must be enlightening and not provoking. He revealed that provocative da'wahs only brought a lot of harm.
Previously, no one could control the lecture material of a cleric. Sometimes the material presented can also be a threat to the government. The view regarding hatred towards the government can be seen when the trumpet case is made from the cover of the Koran.
Each cleric has their respective characters when preaching. Some have a passionate character. There are also those who are so calm in revealing the contents of their lectures. This condition allows Muslims to have their own options in choosing their role models.
Most nothing is wrong. Problems arise when the character of the preacher tends to be conservative. They believe in the truth of their own religion radically. This condition makes lectures that previously had educational content, so they are exposed to provocation.
Ulama who should be able to calm the people, actually worsen the situation. Sometimes also deny fellow Muslims. Supporters of scholars have no other choice but to be exposed to provocations.
Take for example in the case of the spread of trumpets made from the cover of the Koran at the end of December 2015. The problem became a big polemic because the trumpets had spread everywhere. The Ministry of Religion was also asked to take responsibility because the cover of the Quran scattered came from the project.
This condition provoked criticism from everywhere to the Ministry of Religion. There are also scholars who are considered by the Ministry of Religion to be ignorant. The Ministry of Religion's actions are considered to be able to ignite the anger of Muslims. The trumpet case made from the cover of the Koran became a topic of da'wah. This condition resulted in a lot of criticism to the Ministry of Religion.
"Given the printing and circulation of the Qur'an's mushaf, it must go through the process of correcting the Lajnah Pentashih Mushaf of the Koran of the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia. Why did this happen? Muslims must be vigilant with the efforts of irresponsible parties by inciting and making them restless.
"To the police not to consider it a trivial thing and to do omission. Given that this kind of case has happened repeatedly and has the potential to anger Muslims," explained the Chairman of the Central Java Ansor GP, Ikhwanuddin as quoted on the okezone.com page, December 30, 2015.
The trumpet problem is increasingly opening the eyes of the Ministry of Religion that scholars must finalize the topic of their lecture. The Minister of Religion, Lukman Hakim Saifuddin, revealed that preaching was not only a matter of explaining the problem on January 11, 2016.
