I heard loudly the propaganda of "reject foreign ideology" was being uttered.
What is targeted of course that is now on the rise, namely; Khilafah.
Under the pretext that the "Khilafah" is a foreign ideology, it must be rejected.
From the beginning, the propaganda was wrong. Because the Khilafah is not an ideology, but a method for realizing ideas.
Islam as a great idea, produces a set of values called shari'ah.
To realize Shari'ah as a whole requires a tool called the state system, namely; Khilafah.
So the Khilafah is only a method of Islam.
It's the same with democracy.
Democracy is a method to run the idea of secularism.
The idea of separation of religion from the country was born from the great idea of "Vox populi vox deil" which means "The voice of the people (replacing) the voice of God"
To make it real, it takes a method called democracy.
The people elected representatives through the election, then the people's representatives made the law replace the law of God.
Back to the question of propaganda "anti-foreign ideology". The word "foreign" is also ambiguous. Foreign to you is not necessarily foreign to me.
Khilafah as a method of upholding Islamic law is certainly not foreign to Muslims.
Even in the history of the archipelago, the Khilafah is not foreign. Starting from Kasultanan Aceh, Demak, to Mataram, related specifically to the Ottoman Caliphate
What about Democracy?
All know, democracy is not the creation of the Empu Gandring or Sultan Agung.
Democracy is the fruit of Greek thought reproduced by Montesquieu during the French revolution.
The idea of democracy driving nation-state slipped into the native sense of the archipelago through the education of "politics of reprisals" of the Dutch, the invaders of the archipelago hundreds of years.
From a cultural, geographical and religious point of view, democracy is clearly not a local product. That's a fact.
However, the truth of Islam is not local or imported. But its conformity with facts, with human nature, prospering, glorifying, reassuring, and surviving to the afterlife.
