The
Middle East is a central of Islam in the world. But a lot of problems are
happening there, which regard of religion, belief, and politic. For instance, Syria
armed conflict between Sunni and Shiah that has been beginning 2 years ago up
to now. Syria is headed by Bashar Al-Assad who is Syiah and also whose family has held the presidency in Syria since 1971.
There is ongoing debate about the core of this problem whether this conflict is
happening because holding a brief for Islam or politic interest or Kabilalism.
It
is believed that if someone who is death in the war in holding a brief for
Islam, it means that they become a Mujahidin and they will be entered to the
heaven. This doctrine becomes a big influence in reaching military. It is
proven by victims, according
to various opposition activist groups, around 72.960 to 96.430 people have been
killed, of which about half were
civilians, but also including 58.500 armed combatants consisting of
both the Syrian Army and rebel forces, up to 1.000 opposition protesters and 1.000 government
officials. By October 2012, up to 28.000
people had been reported missing, including civilians forcibly abducted by
government troops or security forces.
Furthermore,
politic interest also becomes a prognostic. Because, Bashar Al-Assad’s regime
has held the presidency in Syria since 1971, up to now and He is Syiah. By these
complications, the Syrians are doing demonstration in making against as
manifestation of abhorence to Bashar Al-Assad’s. Mostly, the demonstration or opposition
of government is Sunni. The world has being knowing Sunni and Syiah are two
followers of Muhammad who never live peacefully.
Addition,
according to Komaruddin Hidayah the war is still occurring in Syria because of
kabilalism. Actually, the definition of Kabilalism has many meanings. But according
to Komaruddin hidyat kabilalism is the
action that the two groups are killing each other. For instance, the government
(Bashar Al-Assad) attacks to the opposition which has 10 victims in that brunt.
And of course, the opposition will do the same action; it is attacking to the
Al-Assad’s with intending has the same victim. On the other hand, they are
taking vengeance up to now.
To
sum up, Mujahidin and calling Allahu Akbar are being dogma to face a good life
in Syria, but actually, it is opposite with the reality in Syria, they are
assassinating each other because politic interest and Kabilalism.
