JAKARTA History today, 11 years ago, November 21, 2014, Vice President (Wapres), Jusuf Kalla (JK) emphasized that the sale of heaven is the estuary of religious conflict. He considers this phenomenon to make a person move to kill or be killed for the reward of heaven.

Previously, the world was shocked by the emergence of jihadist groups, Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). The group is known to be brutal and brutal. They lawfulize all means to achieve their goals. Sometimes by killing.

The democratic system presents many disappointments. Moreover, in the Middle East. Many think that the democratic system only produces figures who are incompetent to sit in government. This condition brings one thought: Democracy must be changed.

Misalafah-style leadership is being echoed. Many want a country to become an Islamic country only. Abu Bakar al-Baghdadi tried to bring the narrative. He then tried to make ISIS in 2014.

He and his followers are trying to launch an attack on those political officials close to the United States in Iraq. Gradually they tried to control parts of Iraq and then Syria. However, the control carried out was full of blood.

The Islamic State group is famous for it. They did not hesitate to kill by sharpening and burning their opponents alive. All in order to achieve the goal of upholding the banner of the Islamic state. The existence of ISIS is echoing everywhere because of the massive news.

Instead of many condemning ISIS, in fact many are also interested in joining ISIS. Take for example in Indonesia. Those who want to fly to Syria are part of ISIS are not small. This condition raises concerns. Because, when they go back to their country with radical understanding.

Since being founded by Al Baghdadi in 2014 in Syria and Iraq, ISIS understands that ISIS has spread to many parts of the country, including Indonesia. The National Counterterrorism Agency stated that initially this understanding entered through the internet in the form of news, articles, and videos.

One of the people who are most diligent in spreading ISIS in Indonesia is Aman Abdurrahman alias Oman Rochman. In early January 2014, Aman took allegiance to ISIS and ordered the delivery of his followers there," wrote Nuria Reny Hariyati and Hespi Septiana in the book Radicalism in the Specification of Critical Discourse Analysis (2019).

The ISIS conflict reached the JK family on November 21, 2014. The vice president considers the emergence of ISIS and other radical religious groups because religious leaders like the sale of heaven. They are like Abu Bakar al-Bagdadi selling cheap heaven with the teaching of killing.

Whoever kills will be rewarded with heaven. As a result, ISIS followers are hoarding. They no longer think about world affairs. They just thought of getting heaven and then committing suicide bombings.

JK considers that understanding to be straightened out. He considers the government should be able to cut down injustice so that radical groups do not emerge. Because, usually when injustice occurs, resistance arises.

"Ada di antara pemimpin agama yang menjual murah selatan, banyak belajar dengan membunuh dan dibunuh, terbakar itu masuk selatan, karena itu banyak hal terjadi sebenarnya kurang dipahalami oleh kita."

"People do suicide bombings, they don't make money but (go into) heaven easily, people kill each other, of course they don't look for money, position, but kill to go to heaven quickly, meaning let's broadcast and actually go to heaven is not that easy to kill people easily. ISIS It's because of the sale of heaven, I always say our experience in Poso, Ambon, Aceh," said JK at the 5th World Peace Forum in Jakarta as quoted by the website. , November 21, 2014.
