ZULFIKAR : PEDANG MUHAMAD DAN ALI

http://www.ezsoftech.com/islamic/badr.asp
“Dari semua agama besar yg dimiliki umat manusia, hanya Islam yg lahir dlm pedang di tangan. Islam dari dulu menggantungkan diri pada pedang, dan selama 1300 tahun para mullah berkotbah Jumat di mesjid sambil mengenakan pedang, pun kalau terbuat dari kayu, sbg lambang kepercayaannya.” — Sir Valentine Chirol dlm majalah Foreign Affairs, vol. i. No. 3.

Dlm bab kesimpulan dari buku fenomenal Sir William Muir berjudul Life of Mahomet (Kehidupan Muhamad), ia mengatakan :
pedang adalah hukuman tidak terelakkan bagi penolakan terhdp Islam” dan : “Pedang Muhamad dan Quran adalah musuh fatal, yang paling besar yg pernah dikenal dunia, bagi peradaban, kebebasan dan kebenaran.” 1


Ketika Khalid menang atas suku Bani Jazma, sebelah selatan Mekah, dan membantai tawanannya, ia mendapatkan julukan “Pedang Allah” (Saiful Allah) dari bibir Mohamad, walau ia tidak setuju 100% atas tindakannya. 3 Diantara kaum Arab kuno, pedang selalu menyandang sebuah karakter. Zaid ibn ‘Ali membanggakannya :

“The wielded sword-blade knows my hand, the spear obeys my lusty arm.” (“Pedang saya mengenali tangan saya, tombak saya mematuhi lengan kuat saya.” )

Sementara ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib, pahlawan terbesar Islam, memiliki syair2 utk memuja pedangnya, yg dikutip dimanapun di semenanjung Arab utk menunjukkan keperkasaannya dlm pertempuran :

“Our flowers are the sword and dagger,
Narcissus and myrtle are nought;
Our drink is the blood of our foemen,
Our goblet his skull when we’ve fought.”
4

(Bunga2 kami adalah pedang dan keris,
Bunga narsis dan pohon myrtle (?) hanya nol;
Minuman kami adalah darah musuh kami,
Cangkir kami adalah tengkorak musuh yg kami perangi.)

Mereka yg pernah tinggal dgn kaum Badui gurun pasir akan sering mendengar pernyataan2 khas ini, “Sejarah pedang adalah sejarah umat manusia,” dan ; “Tanpa adanya pedang, maka hukum Muhamad juga tidak akan eksis.”

Pelancong terakhir ke Yaman, Ameen Rihani, menulis: “Saya tidak melebih2kan kalau saya mengatakan bahwa perang terus menerus, dgn interval damai pendek, adalah kondisi yg ada di Al-Yaman. Selama rejim Turki, Saif-ul-Islam (Pedang Islam) tidak pernah menganggur.” 5

Kerajaan Ottoman: Bendera2 dgn pedang Zulfikar

Bendera Selim I

Pedang berbentuk gunting diatas itu (sandjak merah) adalah milik sultan Ottoman, sultan Selim I, melambangkan pedang Zulfikar. Bendera ini dibawa ke Mesir oleh Selim I (1466-1520) dan kini bisa dilihat di Musum Topkapi, Istanbul. Selama abad2 XVI & XVII, bendera2 Zulfikar tersebar luas dlm angkatan bersenjata Ottoman dan bendera2 merah Zulfikar yg tertinggal dlm pertempuran2 di Eropa bisa dilihat dlm museum2. Bahkan di Doge Palace di Venesia, anda dapat melihat Zulfikar dlm bendera merah, segi tiga.

Kamus2 bahasa Arab mencatat ribuan kata bagi pedang. Dan dinasti2 Arab dari abad pertama Islam sampai sekarang selalu jatuh bangun lewat pedang.

Perang Badr
Kemungkinan Muhamad mendapatkan pedang pertamanya dari hasil jarahan Perang Badr. Ini distribusi hasil jarahan tsb, sbgm dijabarkan oleh Muir (hal. 113):

“… Hari berikutnya didekat Safra, barang jarahan dibagi2kan secrara adil kpd seluruh pasukan, setelah dikurangi dgn 1/5 yg diperuntukkan bagi nabi. … Mohamad mendapatkan onta terkenal milik Abu Jahl DAN SEBUAH PEDANG BERNAMA ZULFIKAR. Pedang ini dipilihnya sesuai dgn statusnya sbg nabi, menurut adat yg mengijinkannya memilih apapun yg disukainya dari barang jarahan sebelum dibagikan..” (Cf. Sahih Muslim, ed. Constantinople, 1329, Part IV, hal. 146.)

Dlm hadis2 lain, pedang terkenal itu dikatakan diberikan kpd Muhamad oleh Jibril. Kemudian ia mewariskannya kpd menantunya, ‘Ali, yg membelah kepala Marhab, pejuang raksasa Yahudi di benteng Khaibar. 7 Bentuk anehnya itu nampaknya memang sesuai dgn tradisi, dan gambar pedang itu bisa ditemukan dimanapun didunia Islam dari Maroko ke Cina. Gambar pedang tsb dijadikan sbg lambang perisai pangeran2 Zaidit dari Yamn , dan juga bisa dilihat dari salah satu bendera pasukan Turki, sekitar 8 meter, yg direbut oleh Don Juan dari Austria dari Turki dlm pertempuran Lepanto. 8

Gambar depan kami adalah reproduksi Cina dari sebuah gambar ttg pedang Mohammed, diterbitkan di Beijing. 9 Disebelah kiri ada tulisan Cina yg singkatnya berisi :
(ali5196 : sorry, gambarnya tidak dimuat dlm artikel asli, jadi kami tidak dapat memasukkannya kesini)

“Ada seorang pemberontak bernama Abu Sufyan yg memimpin pasukan berjumlah 7000 tentara. Ia menginginkan jubah kekuasaan Medinah yg diterima Mohamad dari Allah. Sesuai dgn perintah Allah 3000 infanteri berdiri tegak dan melindungi Mohamad dlm pertempuran berdarah. Yg paling terpuji, ‘Ali, dikirim utk memimpin kaum beriman, namun pedangnya tiba2 patah, namun Allah dlm sebuah keputusan yg dikirim malaikat Jibril mengirimkan sebuah pedang magis bermata dua, Dhu’l-Faq ar (Zulfikar), dari langit, yang penuh hiasan. Ini ia turunkan kpd nabi, yg kemudian memberikannya kpd ‘Ali, yang paling terpuji. Jadi dgn pedang ini ia mampu membantu infanteri dan menghancurkan musuh, dan terlebih lagi, mengalahkan mereka secara total. Setelah itu ia berhasil menghentikan dan meng-eksterminaasi setiap pemberontakan dgn kekerasan dan membuka jalan bagi kebenaran …”

Huruf Cina dipinggir pedang berarti: “utk menghindari pengaruh yg tidak diinginkan,” yg berarti bahwa gambar pedang ini dimaksudkan utk dipakai sbg jimat. Pada permukaan ceper pedang yg berbentuk aneh ada kata2 “La fata mithl ‘Ali, wa la saif mithl Dhu’l-Faq ar,” yg berarti “Tidak ada pahlawan spt ‘Ali, dan tidak ada pedang spt Dhu’l-Faq ar.” Di bagian kiri pedang dlm gambar itu terdpt gambar tasbih nabi, dan disebelah kanan lambangnya.

Dlm seni Persia, tidak ada tokoh yg lebih terkenal selain ‘Ali dgn pedangnya yg tidak kalah kemasyurannya, Dhu’l-Faq ar. Sebuah reproduksi pedang itu, diambil dari sebuah kotak kaca Persia, bisa dilihat dlm Encyclopædia of Islam (vol. i. p. 961). Dlm ensiklopedi itu, ada artikel yg ditulis E. Mittwoch yg mengatakan bahwa, menurut tradisi, pedang itu adalah bekas milik seorang kafir bernama Munabbih b. al-Hajjaj. Nama pedang itu berhubungan dgn ekspresi Saif Mufaqqar, “sword with the notch.” Ini disebut dlm sejumlah hadis yg dikumpulkan, misalnya oleh Ibn Saad, ii. 2 diantara Shama’il dlm seksi fi Suyuf al-Nabi. Menurut tradisi, pedang ini diukir tulisan merujuk pada uang darah (diyah), yg berakhir dgn kata2 “la yuqtal muslim bi kafir” (“Tiada Muslim yg akan dibunuh bagi kafir”).

Menurut tradisi umum, pedang ini termasuk kepemilikan nabi yg paling berharga. Dan tiada orang yg lebih berhak utk mewarisi pedang tsb kecuali ‘Ali. Ia saudara sepupu dan menantu nabi, ia menjadi Kalif keempat setelah kematian Muhamad. Ia menerima 16 luka di Ohod, dan mengangkat bendera pada hari kemenangan atas Khaibar. Ia menghancurkan patung2, gambar2 dan MERATAKAN KUBURAN di Medinah. 12 Ia menghukum kafir dgn kematian lewat api. 13 Dan dari legenda2 ttg dirinya ia digambarkan sbg pejuang berani dan orang suci. (????) :shock:

Dlm gambar ini, spt kebanyakan ilustrasi ttg Ali, ia memegang salah satu ciri khasnya : pedang bermata dua, Zulfikar.


Dlm pertempuran Siff ia dikatakan telah membunuh 523 lelaki dlm satu hari dgn pedangnya ini. Banyak lagi cerita2 fantastis ttg dirinya : bgm ia memisahkan kepala dari tubuh musuh dan membelah tubuh2 musuh dgn pedang kesayangannya, Dhu’l-Faq ar. 14



Terlepas dari cerita2 fantastis dan tidak dapat dibuktikan kebenarannya, fakta menunjukkan bahwa sejak jaman dahulu kala, para khotib di mesjid berkotbah sambil memegang sebuah pedang atau tongkat. Ini dicatat dlm komentar ttg buku doa Al-Ghazali oleh Al Murtada, 17. Ini karena pedang menunjukkan bahwa kota itu telah direbut lewat pedang, contoh : Damascus. “Jadi, jika kau memalingkan diri dari Islam, (pedang ini) masih berada dlm tangan Muslim utk berperang melawanmu sampai kau kembali kpd Islam.”

Di setiap kota yg diambil secara damai, contoh : Kairo dan distrik2nya, tongkat kayu yg digunakan. “Namun para pakar berbeda pendapat dan mengatakan bahwa setengahnya Kairo direbut secara paksa dan setengah lainnya direbut secara damai, oleh karena itu prakteknya adalah membawa pedang kayu utk menyatukan kedua kenyataan ini..” 18

Karena kebiasaan membawa pedang atau tongkat kedlm mesjid pada setiap Jumat siang, kami memberikan pengamatan mendetil Lane ttg Mesir. 19 Katanya, begitu suara azan selesai, pengikut berdiri dan lalu “pembantu mesjid yg disebut dgn ‘Murakkee,’ membuka pintu lipat di bagian bawah tangga mimbar, mengambil dari belakangnya sebuah pedang kayu lurus dan, berdiri disebelah kanan pintu masuk dgn bagian kanannya menghadap kpd qiblat, ia menggenggam pedangnya di tangan kanan dng ujungnya menghadap tanah. Dlm posisi ini ia mengatakan, ‘Sesungguhnya Allah dan malaikat2nya memberi rahmat kpd nabi. …’ lalu seseorang atau lebih yg disebut ‘Muballigh,’ yg berposisi di dikkeh, melafalkan : ‘Ya Allah, berikan rahmatmu dan selamatkan yang paling tersuci diantara para Arab dan ‘Agam (orang asing), Imam Mekah dan El-Medinah ….’dst dst . . . sang khotib berdiri dan memegang pedang kayu spt cara Murakkee, menyampaikan doa yg disebut dgn khutbet el-wa‘az.”

Orientalis Jerman, C. H. Becker, dlm pengamatannya juga menjelaskan pentingnya adat yg digambarkan oleh Lane diatas. 20 “Sang pengkotbah naik ke mimbar dgn sebuah tongkat atau pedang atau tombak atau panah di tangan kanannya.”

Penyelidikannya menyimpulkan bahwa mimbar ini dulunya tempat duduk nabi saat berperan sbg hakim. Ia memulai adat ini sekitar 7M. Pedang atau tongkat dan mimbar dari dulu merupakan lambang kekuasaan. Mereka disebut al-‘ud ani, yi kedua barang dari kayu dan dijelaskan bahwa dulunya merupakan sebuah “mimbar an-nabi wa- ‘asahu,” yi mimbar dan tongkat nabi. Kata Becker: “Sebuah tongkat oleh bangsa2 primitif dianggap sbg lambang superioritas atas mereka yg tidak memilikinya. Barang siapa memiliki tongkat sbg senjata bisa menyerang, bisa menghukum. Sang tongkat kemudian menjadi lambang kekuasaan di tangah Allah atau ketiga wakilnya (nabi, imam atau raja). . . . Kemudian, tongkat itu menjadi pedang.”

Solat Jumat tidak pernah komplet tanpa pedang atau tongkat ditangan khatib saat ia berkotbah. Adat ini adalah universal dan bisa ditelusuri pada contoh Muhamad sendiri di mimbar mesjid di Medinah . Kemudian para kalif sering menegaskan hak mereka utk menaiki mimbar dgn pedang atau tongkat. 21

Charles M. Doughty: “Pedang adalah kunci dari surga dlm bayangan mereka. Orang2 Arab yg nampak tidak suka perang namun senewen ini, berlarian spt serigala yg siap mencabik2 negara2 diperbatasan. . . . Agama pedang Arabia harus dipuaskan dgn pedang ….” 22

Mari kita melihat Quran.

Kata pedang (saif) tidak ada dlm Quran, kecuali sebuah ayat yg dikenal sbg Ayat Pedang (9:5) atau Ayatu’s-Saif. 23

[9.5] Apabila sudah habis bulan-bulan Haram itu, maka bunuhlah orang-orang musyrikin itu di mana saja kamu jumpai mereka, dan tangkaplah mereka. Kepunglah mereka dan intailah di tempat pengintaian. Jika mereka bertobat dan mendirikan salat dan menunaikan zakat, maka berilah kebebasan kepada mereka untuk berjalan. Sesungguhnya Allah Maha Pengampun lagi Maha Penyayang.


Dlm bukunya ‘the Historical Development of the Quran,’ Canon E. Sell mengatakan:

“Dikatakan bahwa ayat terkenal ini atau Ayatu’s-Saif, atau ‘ayat pedang,’ mengabrogasi (membatalkan) restriksi yg tidak mengijinkan Muslim utk memulai perang.

“Terlebih lagi, ayat ini juga mengabrogasi 25 ayat2 bersifat damai selama periode Mekah :

‘Dispute not unless in kindly sort with the people of the Book.’ Suratu’l-Anakabut (xxix) 45. . . .”

Ayat Pedang ini menjadi dogma Islam yg begitu penting sampai mengabrogasi bukan hanya satu atau dua ayat, namun ratusan ayat2 dlm Quran yg mengajarkan pengampunan dan kebakan terhdp kafir. Memang, tidak ada satupun ayat yg paling penting dlm seluruh Quran spt prinsip2 abrogasi (nullification) dari ajaran2 sebelumnya.

Ayat2 yg diabrogasi, spt yg dijelaskan oleh Anwar-ul-Haqq, adalah sbb:

26 2:133; 2:188; 2:214; 2:257 (“Tidak ada paksaan dlm agama”); 3:19 (“Kewajibanmu hanya berdakwah”); 4:66; 4:82; 4:92, 93; 4:86 and 90; 5:2; 5:99; 6:66; 6:91; 6:104; 6:106, 107, 108, 112, 136, 138; 6:159, 160; 7:179, 198 ("Make the best of things and withdraw from the ignorant”); 8:73; 9:7; 10:99 (“Betulkan kalian akan memaksa orang menjadi pengikut”); 10:102, 108; 10:42, 47; 11:15 (“Kau hanya memperingatkan”); 13:40; 15:3; 15:85, 89, 94; 16:84; 16:126, 128; 17:56; 17:110, 19:40; 19:76, 87; 20:130, 135; 22:48, 55, 67; 23:56, 98; 24:53; 25:64; 27:94; 28:55; 29:49; 30:60; dan 50 ayat lainnya yg dikatakan telah diabrogasi oleh Ayat Pedang ! Itu sekitar lebih dari 110 ajaran yg diabrogasi oleh Ayat Pedang — pedang Allah dan Mohamad.

Pada permulaan karirnya, Muhamad mengajarkan Islam dgn mengajar, berkotbah dan dgn argument. Tetapi begitu ia merebut kekuasaan, ia meridhoi penggunaan pedang. Oleh karena itu tidak aneh bahwa dlm Surat 9 yg mengandung Ayat Pedang ini, ia menggunakan kalimat menakjubkan : ‘Allah dan rasulnya’ tidak kurang dari 16 kali. .

Evolusi doktrin pedang ini ditelusuri oleh pakar Islam (Ibn ‘Abidin, vol. iii. p. 237, dikutip F. A. Klein, The Religion of Islam, p. 174) sbb:
“Ketahuilah bahwa perintah utk bertempur diwahyukan secara bertahap, karena nabi tadinya diperintahkan utk menyampaikan pesannya, lalu mendiskusikannya dan mencoba meyakinkan kafir lewat argumen2 ; lalu kaum beriman diijinkan utk berperang; tadinya mereka diperintahkan utk berperang kecuali di bulan2 suci, lalu kemudian, tanpa pembatasan apapun.”

Pendeta C. C. Adams, Ph.D. dlm tesisnya ttg The Modern Reform Movement in Egypt, menulis artikel yg muncul dlm Al-Urwah al-Wuthqah dari Tarikh Muhammad ‘Abduh (vol. ii. pp. 250 seq.) ttg ajaran masa kini:

“Adalah kewajiban semua Muslim utk mempertahankan otoritas Islam dan kekuasaan Islam atas negara2 yg dulu pernah Muslim dan mereka tidak diijinkan dlm keadaan apapun utk bersikap damai ataupun mencapai konsensus dgn siapapun yg ingin menguasai mereka, sampai mereka mendapatkan otoritas sepenuhnya tanpa membagikannya dgn siapapun.”

Dan oleh karena itulah sampai sekrarang, jihad adalah “kewajiban umum semua Muslim lelaki, bebas (bukan budak), dewasa, sehat dlm pemikiran dan memiliki kemampuan utk mencapai pasukan Muslim. . . . Dan ini harus dilanjutkan sampai seluruh dunia berada dibawah kekuasaan Islam . . . Islam harus dirubah secara keseluruhan kalau doktrin Jihad ingin dihilangkan.” 27

The penis is mightier than the sword :

A century ago Muslims represented about 12.4% of the world's population. Today it is almost 25%. By 2025 it will be the world's dominant religion. By 2100 it will be the only religion, assuming the Democrats stay in power.

A rather bold assertion. But consider this: the average Muslim woman has 6 children. A Muslim man with 4 wives can have dozens of these little buggers. Non-Muslims are hardly reproducing at all. Do the math.

Osama bin Laden is one of 52 to 57 children, no one knows the exact number. Osama is wasting his time with swords, here, the penis is mightier than the sword. Islam will do with sheer numbers what no weapon can ever accomplish.

Dari situs Islam, tanya jawab.

Islam disebarkan dgn pedang ? Mana mungkin ! Lihat nih betapa damainya kami !!! :butthead:

http://www.islamqa.com/index.php?ref=43087&ln=eng

The defeatists among the Muslims come out to defend Islam, and they want to disavow Islam of this so-called lie, so they deny that Islam was spread by the sword, and they say that jihad is not prescribed in Islam, except in the case of self-defence. There is no such thing in Islam as taking the initiative in fighting in their view. This goes against what the Muslim scholars have stated, let alone the fact that it goes against the Qur’aan and Sunnah.

Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said in Majmoo’ al-Fataawa, 28/263.

The purpose is that all religion should be for Allaah alone, and that the word of Allaah should be supreme. The word of Allaah is a comprehensive phrase that refers to His words that are contained in His Book. Hence Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“Indeed We have sent Our Messengers with clear proofs, and revealed with them the Scripture and the Balance (justice) that mankind may keep up justice” [al-Hadeed 57:25]

The purpose behind sending the Messengers and revealing the Books was so that mankind might keep up justice with regard to the rights of Allaah and the rights of His creation. Then Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And We brought forth iron wherein is mighty power (in matters of war), as well as many benefits for mankind, that Allaah may test who it is that will help Him (His religion) and His Messengers in the unseen” [al-Hadeed 27:25]

So whoever deviates from the Book is to be brought back with iron, i.e. by force. Hence the soundness of the religion is based on the Qur’aan and the Sword. It was narrated that Jaabir ibn ‘Abd-Allaah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) commanded us to strike with this, meaning the sword, whoever turns away from this, meaning the Qur’aan.

Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in al-Faroosiyyah (p.18):

Allaah sent him – meaning the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) – with the guiding Book and the conquering sword, ahead of the Hour, so that Allaah alone would be worshipped with no partner or associate, and his provision was placed beneath the shade of his sword and spear. Allaah has established the religion of Islam with proof and evidence, and with the sword and spear, both together and inseparable.

This is some of the evidence from the Qur’aan and Sunnah. The evidence clearly indicates that the sword is one of the most important means that led to the spread of Islam.

1 – Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“For had it not been that Allaah checks one set of people by means of another, monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques, wherein the Name of Allaah is mentioned much would surely, have been pulled down. Verily, Allaah will help those who help His (Cause). Truly, Allaah is All-Strong, All-Mighty” [al-Hajj 22:40]

“And if Allaah did not check one set of people by means of another, the earth would indeed be full of mischief. But Allaah is full of bounty to the ‘Aalameen (mankind, jinn and all that exists)” [al-Baqarah 2:251]

2 – Allaah has commanded us to prepare the means of fighting against the kuffaar and frightening them. He says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And make ready against them all you can of power, including steeds of war (tanks, planes, missiles, artillery) to threaten the enemy of Allaah and your enemy, and others besides whom, you may not know but whom Allaah does know” [al-Anfaal 8:60]

If Islam was only spread by peaceful means, what would the kuffaar have to be afraid of? Of mere words spoken on the tongue? In al-Saheehayn it is narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “I have been supported with fear as far as a month’s journey.” Would the kuffaar be afraid of being told, “become Muslim, but if you do not then you are free to believe and do whatever you want”? or were they afraid of jihad and the imposition of the jizyah and being humiliated? That may make them enter Islam so that they may be spared this humiliation.

3 – When the Messenger called people to Islam, his call was accompanied by the sword, and he commanded his leaders to do likewise, so that when the people saw the serious of the Muslims in calling people to their religion, that dispelled any confusion.

Al-Bukhaari (3009) and Muslim (2406) narrated that Sahl ibn Sa’d (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said on the day of Khaybar: “Tomorrow I will give the banner to a man at whose hands victory will come, one who loves Allaah and His Messenger, and Allaah and His Messenger love him.” The people spent that night wondering which of them would be given the banner and all of them were hoping for it. Then he (the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)) said, “Where is ‘Ali?” It was said, “His eye is hurting.” So he spat in his eyes and made du’aa’ for him, and he was healed, as if there had not been anything wrong with him. Then he gave him the flag and he [‘Ali] said: “Shall I fight them so that they will be like us?” He said: “Go ahead, until you reach their encampment, then call them to Islam and tell them what they are obliged to do, for by Allaah if Allaah were to guide a man at your hands that would be better for you than having red camels [the best kind].”

So this call to Islam was accompanied by the force of arms.

Muslim (3261) narrated that Buraydah said: When the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) appointed a commander to lead an army or a raiding party, he would advise him to fear Allaah with regard to himself and the Muslims with him, then he said: “Fight in the name of Allaah and for the sake of Allaah. Fight those who disbelieve in Allaah, fight but do not steal from the war booty (before it is shared out), betray, or mutilate. Do not kill children. If you meet your enemy of the mushrikeen, call them to three things, and whichever one of them they respond to, accept that from them and leave them alone. Then call them to Islam and if they respond, accept that from them and leave them alone. If they refuse but they pay the jizyah, then they have responded to you, so accept that from them and leave them alone. If they refuse then seek the help of Allaah and fight them…”

So the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told his commanders to call the kuffaar to Islam whilst wielding their swords over their heads. If they refused to become Muslim then they should pay the jizyah with humility. If they refused then there was nothing left for them but the sword – “If they refuse then seek the help of Allaah and fight them”

4 – The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “I have been sent ahead of the Hour with the sword so that Allaah will be worshipped alone, and my provision has been placed in the shade of my spear, and humiliation has been decreed for those who go against my command, and whoever imitates a people is one of them.” Narrated by Ahmad, 4869; Saheeh al-Jaami’, 2831.

The fact that the sword and power were means of spreading Islam is not a sources of shame for Islam, rather it is one of its strengths and virtues, because that makes people adhere to that which will benefit them in this world and in the Hereafter. Many people are foolish and lacking in wisdom and knowledge, and if they are left to their own devices they will remain blinded to the truth, indulging in their whims and desires. So Allaah has prescribed jihad in order to bring them back to the truth and to that which will benefit them. Undoubtedly wisdom dictates that the fool should be prevented from doing that which will harm him, and should be forced to do that which will benefit him.

Al-Bukhaari (4557) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: “ ‘You (true believers in Islamic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah) are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind’ [Aal- Imraan 3:110 – interpretation of the meaning].” He said: “You are the best (i.e., the most beneficial) of people for mankind, you bring them in the chains that are around their necks until they enter Islam.” Can people be brought in chains except in the case of jihad??

This is something for which Islam deserves to be praised, not condemned. :shock: :shock: The defeatists should fear Allaah lest they distort this religion and cause it to become weak on the basis of the claim that it is a religion of peace. Yes, it is the religion of peace but in the sense of saving all of mankind from worshipping anything other than Allaah and submitting all of mankind to the rule of Allaah. This is the religion of Allaah, not the ideas of any person or the product of human thought, so that those who promote it should feel ashamed to state its ultimate goal, which is that all religion (worship) should be for Allaah alone. When the ideas that people follow are all produced by human beings and the systems and laws that control their lives are all made up by human beings, then in this case each idea and each system has the right to live safely within its own borders so long as it does not transgress the borders of others, so the various ideas and laws can co-exist and not try to destroy one another. But when there is a divine system and law, and alongside it there are human systems and laws, then the matter is fundamentally different, and the divine law has the right to remove the barriers and free people from enslavement to human beings…

Fiqh al-Da’wah by Sayyid Qutb, 217-222.

It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah (12/14):

Islam spread by means of proof and evidence to those who listened to the message and responded to it, and it spread by means of force and the sword to those who were stubborn and arrogant, until they were overwhelmed and became no longer stubborn, and submitted to that reality.

And Allaah knows best.

In case it isn't clear because of all of the usual extraneous nonsense, their answer is a proud and defiant "yes!"

Fight those who disbelieve in Allaah, fight but do not steal from the war booty (before it is shared out), betray, or mutilate. Do not kill children…

Of course they ignore this command.

The defeatists should fear Allaah lest they distort this religion and cause it to become weak on the basis of the claim that it is a religion of peace. Yes, it is the religion of peace but in the sense of saving all of mankind from worshipping anything other than Allaah and submitting all of mankind to the rule of Allaah.

:lol: :lol: That sums up the Religion Of Peace very nicely.

DLm artikel di harian Arab London, Asharq Al-Awsat tgl May 2, 2004, Kamal Najjar melaporkan bahwa pemimpin2 Islam terkemuka selalu mengutip ayat Quran, spt "Tidak ada paksaan dlm agama."

Namun ia juga mengatakan bahwa imam2 itu juga bersikeras bahwa ayat2 (damai) ini di-abrogasi oleh ‘Ayat Pedang.'"

Salah satu tokoh adalah ulama berpengaruh Saudi, Musa Al-Qarni, muftinya Bin Laden. ... Ia tampil dlm TV Saudi, IQRA utk membahas penyebaran Islam lewat pedang.

"Kita harus menyadari bahwa Allah mewajibkan kami utk menyebarkan agama ini keseluruh dunia," katanya. "Pertama, harus disebarkan lewat dakwah, lewat bujukan. … Namun kalau kami menghadapi seseorang yg menghalangi jalan kami ini dan mencoba utk menghalangi penyebaran agama benar ini, dan menghalanginya mencapai orang2 lain, dlm hal ini adalah kewajiban (Muslim) utk MELAWAN orang macam ini."

Sheik Qarni, yg sering tampil dlm pers Saudi menambahkan; "Kami tidak setuju dgn mereka … yg mengatakan bahwa agama [Islam] tidak menggunakan pedang. Tidak. Islam menggunakan pedang saat tidak ada alternatif lain… Kalau tidak ada guna bagi pedang, maka adalah bijaksana utk menggunakan pedang." (?)

"Islam terdiri dari dua bagian, Quran dan pedang," demikian kata
Abu Bakar Bashir dari Indonesia tgl August 21 dlm wawancara dng situs Al-Jazeera. "Quran memiliki semua aturan, norma, hukum dan hukuman yg kami perlukan. Penerapan Shariah adalah dgn pedang."

Pidato 1942 Ayatollah Khomeini : "Islam mengatakan: Bunuh [non-Muslims], bawa mereka ke ujung pedang dan hancurkan [tentara mereka]. … Rakyat tidak dapat dibuat patuh kecuali dgn pedang ! … Ada ratusan ayat Quran dan hadis … yg mendesak agar Muslim menghargai perang dan bertempur. Apakah ini berarti bahwa Islam adalah agama yg menghindari orang utk berperang ? Saya meludahi orang2 tolol yg mengatakan itu."

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

For almost a thousand years ... Europe was under constant threat. In the early centuries it was a double threat—not only of invasion and conquest, but also of conversion and assimilation. All but the easternmost provinces of the Islamic realm had been taken from Christian rulers, and the vast majority of the first Muslims west of Iran and Arabia were converts from Christianity. North Africa, Egypt, Syria, even Persian-ruled Iraq, had been Christian countries, in which Christianity was older and more deeply rooted than in most of Europe. Their loss was sorely felt and heightened the fear that a similar fate was in store for Europe.[1]

Dari buku tua Persia : ilustrasi Jibril, Muhammad dan Ali sedang memegang pedangnya yg berujung dua, ZULFIKAR. Perhatikan tubuh yg dibelah dua (sebelah kiri) dan sebuah kepala yg berhasil dipenggalnya (sebelah kanan).

enam-pedang-nabi-muhammad-dipamerkan-di ... jo-t34366/

Mon Aug 17, 2009 9:41 am

SIDOARJO - Menyambut bulan suci Ramadan, enam pedang Nabi Muhammad SAW, dipamerkan di Convention Hall Sun City Sidoarjo, Jawa Timur. Pameran ini merupakan hasil kerja sama Piramid Commucation dengan Kedutaan Besar Turki.

Enam pedang nabi tersebut bernama Dzu Al Faqar, Al Qadib, Al Rasub, Al Battar, Al Ma'thur, dan Al Qol'i. Selain pedang nabi, busur panah dan terompa (alas kaki) Nabi Muhammad saat berjalan dari masjid Al Aqsa juga ikut dipamerkan.

Second Secretary Kedutaan Besar Turki, Ali Kilicarslan Topuz menyatakan pedang-pedang Nabi yang dipamerkan, adalah persenjataan yang dulu digunakan dalam peperangan.

"Jumlah pedang Nabi yang masih tersimpan di Istana Topkapi Istambul Turki berjumlah sembilan buah, beserta barang peninggalan Nabi lainnya. Semuanya masih tersimpan rapi dan terjaga," ujar Ali.

Pameran ini, lanjutnya, bertujuan untuk memberikan pengetahuan lebih baik kepada masyarakat Indonesia akan sejarah Islam, terutama di wilayah Eropa. "Banyak masyarakat Indonesia yang belum mengetahui tentang perkembangan Islam di Eropa," tukasnya. :rolling:

Sementara itu, Humas Convention Hall Sun City Sidoarjo Ovi Sofianti menyatakan pameran dibuka sejak kemarin hingga H-2 Idul Fitri. "Pameran berlangsung selama 40 hari," ujarnya.

Koleksi yang dipamerkan dalam acara ini beberapa di antaranya bukanlah barang asli, melainkan hanya replika. Tiket masuk ke ruang pamerang dibandrol Rp10.000 untuk setiap pengunjung.
