CERAMAH WACANA INGGRIS

Assalamualaikum wr.wb.

What do you feel? Look around you. Observe the world you are living in. Can you
feel the beating of a thousand desperate hearts? Can you see the fear for tomorrow in the
looks of people? Can you hear the cries of a thousand mothers who are losing their children
each day?
There is a question that always be asked by others, Muslims or Non-Muslims. “Why
did Muhammad go to war?”
The Prophet, did not initiate war against anyone who offered to make peace with him.
War is a last resort in Islam for the physical defense of the community and it is not a means to
force people to enter Islam. Peaceful coexistence among different religions is highly
preferred over conflict. For example, the war between Muslim and Quraish in Muhammad’s
era.
Since the start of hostilities or the state of war, every individual of Qureish or the
Meccans was a public enemy of the Muslims and liable to be treated as such in his person and
property, except those who were unable to take part in the hostilities, or, as a matter of fact,
abstained from engaging in them. It was different with Quraish treatment to enemies
(Muslims). Muslims were tortured at the hands of the ungodly and fierce Quraish. And the
Muslims who became prisoners, are not given the properly fed and other services.
Islam strictly forbids such inhuman actions. During our captivity, the prisoners must
be treated kindly. We have to be properly fed, clothed and looked after.
We can take the lesson from the victory of Muslim in war, was not of man's glory but
humility, not of power but of service, not an appeal to vanity but a realization of Allah's
mercy.
Now, we have known that war in Islam is different with another wars in this world.
And I think, today, war isn’t a choice. Because, the war isn’t for defend but just for the
personal interests of a country, enriching themselves, or expanding the territory of the
country.
Ladies and gentleman…
I wanna ask you one question, “What are we fighting for, and why?” Please, look at
them, look at the victims of war, and the children. They loose their parents, they loose their
families, they loose their friends, they loose their dreams, and they loose their smiles. We
should live in peace. So let’s come together as one in unity. With the heart, sincerity, and
hand in hand, we can give hope for them and with the hope, we can stop the war. So please,
stop the war and violence, spread the love and peace. I believe, in every problems, there
always be the solutions, so let’s become the part of that solutions. Together, we can make this
world as a better place.
Thank you for your best attention.
