JAKARTA - Video clips of Zein Assegaf or Habib Kribo about Arabic have no honor if there is no Kaaba with a long tail. This Wednesday evening the hashtag Catch Zein Kribo #TangkaZeinKribo is a trending topic.

Netizens protested Habib Kribo's statement which allegedly contained insults to the Arab nation. As of this writing, there have been more than 3,000 tweets that have included this hashtag.

"An insult to the Arabs. Hopefully, the Arabs in Indonesia. Report this provocateur. He causes commotion," said a netizen with the @Riskiar**** account with the hashtag #TangkaZeinKribo

"We are still waiting for the good faith of the Kribo to apologize, not because the Kribo's actions have made international polemics and damaged Indonesia-Arab bilateral relations," replied the account @cybsq****

"Don't let us be judged as a nation that is hostile to the Arabs. Because the Arabs have never troubled the Republic of Indonesia, let alone its NATUNA claims or anything. Let's support and tell the Arabs that we don't support Kribo," said the account @Helmi_Fe****.

The hashtag for this arrest stems from a video clip of Habib Kribo that was spread on social media. The video shows Habib Kribo having an opinion about the Arabs.

“Arabs without the Kaaba have no honor, what are the Arab cultures? Nothing," said Habib Kribo.

“A nation that never gave birth to intellectuals, who are Islamic intellectuals from Arab? No one," he said again.

"Islam there is still far from perfect, so don't pretend to be Islamic," he said.
