"If I die someday, have a willingness to be a prayer leader Hamka my corpse." (Sukarno)
Haji Hamka, intimates called Buya Hamka. Kalam holy Divine, diligently, he repeated from memory. Spelling out verse after verse. Contemplating one by one interpretation, to seal, entirely fulfilled. No emotion was blue. There were tears plated happy smile, there. God seemed so close.
Ibn Taymiyah like old times. Befriend a piece of paper, ink and pen following. Points incised inscription perenunangan results. Multivolume works out from behind bars. People came, asked for a fatwa. From behind bars, in the dark he replied. Be volumes Majmu Fatawa there. There was no fear at all. Whereas in prison for him, is heaven.
In the evening is filled with standing, bowing, prostrating. Really, there are imprisoned there. His soul is free. Nobody confined there. His hands were agile write a meaningful message. Natural wandering thought, contemplating KemahaanNya.
Or like the Like companions in arms in the other hemisphere, Egypt, Sayyid Qutb. Tyrant regime was able to silence the natural thought, although the remains imprisoned. Bertemankan sheet of paper, a pen too. Thus was born the monumental work Fii Dzilal Tafsir Al Quran.
Buya Hamka, almost similar. Tafsir Al Quran 30 Juz who later called Tafsir Al Azhar he finish with, accompanied by the cold iron bars, in the leadership of Sukarno. The regime change, the old order to change the regime called new order. Not unexpectedly, Buya Hamka can breathe free air.
Buya Hamka and Soekarno == ==
After his release from prison, Hamka did not know the news of Sukarno, the ruler who imprisoned him at the time. Her memory jumps back in time backward. When he straightforwardly criticized the government will enforce the application of the system of guided democracy.
"..Trias Politica faded in Indonesia ... .Demokrasi guided is totalitarianism ... The National Front is a State party ..." shouted Hamka echoed in the Assembly building in 1959, when advancing Islam as the state of Indonesia in formulating trial basis for the State. Shortly, was dismissed by Soekarno. Masjumi (Shura Council Muslimin Indonesia), Buya Hamka shelter temapat party was forcibly disbanded. Its leaders arrested, thrown in jail.
Hamka political dissent known Islamist, Soekarno whose secularist, deepened with the arrest and imprisonment of his political rivals. Even so, no profanity that came out of a Buya Hamka to the leader at the time. When picked forced to immediately thrown into prison without trial, Hamka just resigned, put my trust in Allah Almighty.
Even after smoking, no grudges there. There was no sense want to reply, demanding, or otherwise act in self-defense. In fact, when the books by Buya banned by the government. There was no resentment there. Nothing to complain, or expletives. All he handed over to God, the best of helpers.
Indeed, so great desire to Hamka met Sukarno. Thanksgiving, therefore, he could finish Tafsir Al Azhar from behind the prison. Therefore, he could be so close to God. Therefore, the way his life is so beautiful, though a full range of exams.
Sukarno, where now he is? Not tahu..Begitu miss, Hamka wanted to meet him. There was no upset of a Buya. Lama..telah has been a long time, even if Soekarno give sorry, have long heart sorry opened the door as wide as possible. In fact, there is gratitude there.
But where? Where Soekarno now? Buya eager to meet him. The question unanswered, but not the usual answer. June 16, 1970, Suharto's aide, Maj Soeryo came to Hamka in Kebayoran, holding a piece of paper. A message - arguably the last message - from Soekarno. She looked vague the paper, then read slowly.
"If I die someday, ask Hamka's willingness to be a prayer leader jenazahku."
Eyes were so clear, like glass to read this article. A message, from a former helm of the country. Where? Where Soekarno now? So longed to meet her. Maj Soeryo said, "Ia..Bapak Sukarno had died in the army hospital. Now the body was taken to the guesthouse Yoso. "
The semkin eyes glazed. Not sempat..rindu is reciprocated. Hamka can only be met with the figure that his body was already lying dead. Want to taste, the tears flow, but he must be brave. He kissed the Proclaimers, with prayer, he ask forgiveness for the sins of the former ruler, the sins of the person who put her in jail.
Now, before him, lay the bodies of Sukarno. Indeed, death is so close. With takbir, he began to lead the prayer bodies. To fulfill the last wishes of Sukarno. Perhaps, this gesture of apology Soekarno on Hamka. Sobs of emotion, sounding all around.
After Salah, had finished praying, there were to ask the Buya, "What Buya no grudges against Sukarno, who had arrested Buya so long in prison?"
Gently, the Buya replied, "Only God knows the person is a hypocrite or not. Clearly, until his death, he remains a Muslim. We are obliged to keep the body well.
I never grudges against those who have hurt me. Revenge is a sin. For two years and four months I was arrested, I felt it a gift from God to me, so that I can finish the Book of Tafsir Al Quran 30 Juz. When not in custody, there may not my time to work on and finish the job. "
Indeed, tears dripping hear an explanation Buya. So extensive soul, to the problem, for him is a speck of ink, which dripped into the vastness of the ocean. There was no trace there. There was never any animosity at all. With a smile and calm, he underwent all the twists and turns of life.
An Exemplary Story shown Buya Hamka and Sukarno in national political fragments, utopian thing seems to be found in today's political world
