Sejarah Kongres Perempuan • Umat Muhammadiyah

Menelisik Sejarah Dibalik Hari Ibu Nasional dan Kongres Perempuan Pertama di Yogyakarta

Memperingati Hari Ibu Nasional bagi sebagian orang hanya terpacu pada Surat Keputusan (SK) Presiden No 136 tahun 1959. Namun, di balik dari SK tersebut terdapat sejarah lain yang melandasi tercetusnya Hari Ibu Nasional pada tanggal 22 Desember, yaitu pada Kongres Perempuan I di Yogyakarta pada tanggal 22-25 Desember Tahun 1928.

Disampaikan Ketua Umum Pimpinan Pusat ‘Aisyiyah Siti Noordjannah Djohantini,  salah satu pencetus adanya Kongres Perempuan I di Yogyakarta yaitu ‘Aisyiyah, bersama organisasi perempuan Indonesia lainnya. Dalam kongres tersebut 'Aisyiyah diwakili Siti Munji'ah dan Siti Hayinah. “Sebagai organisasi perempuan Muhammadiyah, ‘Aisyiyah adalah salah satu inisiator dari Kongres perempuan pertama di Yogyakarta tersebut,” ucap Noor, Jum'at (22/12). Selain itu, pada tanggal 22 Desember 1928 merupakan dimulanya para perempuan melalui rintangan dari kaum kuno yang masih mencintai adat tua. Hal itu ditandai dengan keberhasilan Kongres Perempuan I. “Kaum kuno pada masa itu menyatakan bahwa kaum istri (perempuan) tidak perlu berkongres-kongres, cukup di dapur tempatnya, kaum perempuan belum matang dan belum bisa berdamai dalam perkumpulan,” ujar Noor.

Noor juga mengatakan, jika berbicara Hari Ibu tidak terlepas dari betapa besarnya peran kaum perempuan di dalam berjihad pada persoalan-persoalan bangsa Indonesia yang lebih luas. “Karena tujuan dari kongres tersebut yaitu untuk mengambil peran perempuan dalam perjuangan memajukan bangsa Indonesia,” ucap Noor.

Noor juga berpesan agar peringatan Hari Ibu di Indonesia tidak disamakan seperti peringatan Hari Ibu di negara lain, walaupun lanjut Noor, seorang Ibu memilki keluar biasaan yang sama. “Karena perempuan pada dasarnya memiliki tanjung jawab utama dan pertama dalam mengawal generasi yang akan datang,” ucap Noor.

Hari Ibu di Indonesia, tegas Noor, harus diperingati dalam konteks memajukan bangsa Indonesia. “Hari Ibu jangan hanya dijadikan seremoni semata, namun mari kita jadikan sebagai kebangkitan perempuan dalam mengambil peran memajukan dan mensejahterakan bangsa Indonesia,” tegas Noor.

The Mandatory Bathing Method for the Right Woman According to Islam

In Islamic teachings, to carry out worship which is part of the pillars of Islam and its nature habluminnaullah (dealing directly with Allah, in the form of rituals) it is obligatory to be pure and clean. Not just clean and holy when carrying out ritual worship, more than that Islamic teachings do indeed order the people to always keep themselves clean. As in a hadith it is stated that cleanliness is part of faith. This, as stated in the Koran: "O ye who believe, if you are going to pray, then wash your face and your hands up to your elbows, and sweep your head and (wash) your feet up to both ankles, and if you junub then take a bath, and if you are sick or deep traveling or returning from a toilet or touching a woman, then you do not get water, then mix with good soil (clean); brush your face and your hand with the land. God does not want to trouble you, but He wants to cleanse you and perfect His blessings for you, so that you will be grateful. "(QS: Al-Maidah: 6) Prohibiti...

The Law of Eating Food for the Rest of Others in Islam

On the previous occasion, we have briefly reviewed some of the ways of eating the Prophet, one of which is to spend the remaining food on a plate or tray where you eat. Spending the rest of the food actually has its own philosophy of appreciating the blessings given by Allah SWT. Islam forbids his people from wasting the sustenance obtained. And therefore, as Muslims we must respect every drop of water and every seed of food that is available by not wasting the food or drink and using it for a positive purpose. The rewards that we give to food or drink are actually a form of our gratitude for God's favor. Therefore in one of the narrations of the Prophet sallallaahu ahu alaihi wasallam always licked the leftover food stuck to the fingers of his hand. From Jabir bin ‘Abdillah he said that the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wasallam said, "Don't sweep his hand with a napkin before he licks his finger. Because he doesn't know which food brings blessings. "(Narrated by M...

The trumpet is Jewish Culture

The trumpet is Jewish culture. But that is what the Muslims did on New Year's Eve, just following Jewish culture. Don't believe? Please reflect on the following hadith.
