Ramadhan: Kesempatan untuk Mempersatukan Umat Islam
BINTANGNEWS.com –
Media PressTV berbahasa Inggris melaporkan,” Allah berfirman dalam kitab suci Al-Quran:
Dan berpegang teguh pada tali Allah bersama-sama dan jangan terpecah belah. Dan
ingat nikmat Allah atas Anda-ketika Anda adalah musuh dan Dia menyatukan hati
Anda dan Anda menjadi, atas bantuan-Nya, saudara. Dan Anda berada di ujung
lubang neraka, dan Dia menyelamatkan Anda darinya. Demikianlah Allah
menjelaskan kepada Anda ayat-ayat-Nya bahwa Anda dapat dibimbing. '
This
verse holds true for Muslims throughout the year but its implementation is
specifically witnessed during the Holy month of Ramadan. Muslims from all sects
undertake fasting and worship in almost identical manner and maintain the same
good conduct. Social bonds are strengthened in an environment of self
reflection, communal worship and charity in this month.
Dan bertentangan dengan sebagian besar
media menggambarkan, di banyak negara sangat umum bagi Sunni dan Syiah untuk
menikah, berdoa bersama di masjid yang sama, berbuka puasa bersama selama
Ramadhan, dan hidup bersama secara harmonis. Bulan Suci Ramadhan adalah
kesempatan besar bagi semua Muslim untuk menjangkau melintasi batas sektarian
dan membangun persatuan abadi.
Perhaps
Muslims should pledge to each other to become united. Most people have friends that are from
different Muslim backgrounds and have no problem mixing. However, the need for masajids to create the
environment where people are made to feel welcome in the masjid of another is
important to fulfill the vision of unity at a structural level. In Iran it is
not allowed to have separate masajids for Sunnis and Shi’as. In Sunni majority areas the Shi’as have to
pray behind a Sunni Imam and vice versa. Can we replicate that in the West?.***
