Yup...minggu kemarin tanggal 18 Jan 2009 aku kembali bisa mengikuti demo, kali ini untuk anak anak di Palestina....jam 12 siang udah siap siap, sarapan dan makan siang (lagu lama) and then sholat duhur kemudian bernagkat bareng suami....hari itu aku udah janjian kopdar sama seorang Indonesian sister yang baru pindah dari australia 4 bulan yang lalu.....katanya sih dia udah denger namaku dari banyak orang yang dia temui di demo minggu sebelumnya tapi kok dia gak pernah ketemu?....lha kok aku 'terkenal'? karena temen temenku hanya kenal 1 Indonesian saja, siapa dia?...jreng jreeng....diriku...hehe.....so kalau ada orang Indonesia yang baru mereka kenal langsung mereka nanya :"Do you know ame?" hehe.emang orang Indo di Lonon gw doang??? hmm...gak tahu kenapa yah, apa mereka yang emang gak pernah ketemu orang Indonesia atau ibu2 indonesia yang sembunyi diantara orang orang Indonesia saja :) atau emang aku aja yang gak ngenalin orang2 Indonesia ke mereka???hehe.....tak tahulah...
so setelah minggu sebelumnya saling menelpon ria dengan mba K**** kita sama sama setuju untuk ketemu di demo...jamnya sih gak pasti.....dan sesampainya di TKP *iih ngeri* aku udah nerima 2 misscall, artinya aku gak denger pas dia-nya nelpon, ku telpon balik gak di angkat....lagi lagi lagi dan lagi, gak ada jawaban meski ada nada ringing....akhirnya aku menikmati orasi dari seorang sister yang membacakan surat dari akhwat di Ghazza. benar benar luluh airmataku...tak terbendung..menangis seperti anak kecil.....sedih, sakit dan terluka.....subhanAllah.....ditengah tangisan penuh luka itu *cieee* aku dapat call lagi dari mba K, yesss....akhirnya dia bilang: "saya di dibelakang sendiri, bawa double pram dekat sama taman, pakai kerudung kuning" aha.....aku langsung bisa menemukan sosoknya....langsung kita berpelukan dan mulailah obrolan itu mengalir..tak terasa acara marching (berjalan) mulai...akupun berjalan beriringan dengan dia sambil membawa Plakat/poster bertuliskan bahasa arab: Aynal Jundul Muslimin? Littahriir filistin, sedang dibaliknya aku gak inget what exactly is written, Ya Jabban ya Al Ameel Amerikaan. kayaknya sih begitu....sedang mba K harus mendorong push chair alias pram dimana kedua anaknya duduk manis....
Kami berjalan menyusuri jalanan kecil melewati Kedutaan besar Syria, Saudi dan Mesir....memang demo kali ini jalurnya beda dengan minggu sebelumnya.....kalau sebelumnya kita melewati jalanan besar untuk membuat penduduk Edgware road aware, tapi kali ini kita berkonsentrasi untuk mengirim pesan kepada Arab Ruler (pemimpin arab) di ketiga negara tersebut....sambil meneriakkan yel yel aku selingi ngobrol dengan mba K.
disepanjang perjalanan banyak kamera profesional dan amatir yang nge-shoot barisan...satu kamera yang dipegang oleh seorang laki laki tinggi besar dengan peci bundarnya nampak mengikuti barisan, masuk keluar barisan dan juga nampak pewawancara sengaja berada dalam barisan dan menanyai beberapa demonstran.
Tujuan terakhir kami adalah Syrian Embassy, sesampainya disana ditutup dengan doa dan para demonstran dipersilahkan sholat asar. aku pun melaksanakan sholat asar *kali ini gak pake sepatu dan gak begitu dingin,hehe* setelah sholat asar, tiba tiba ada seorang sister cantik mendekati kami dan bertanya sesuatu.....mba K menjawab dan kemudian aku diberi giliran untuk mengungkapkan pendapatku, setelah selesai dia bilang: "Sis...That's the point that I want to hear, please try to remember those answer and I will ask the cameraman to shoot after the other sisters finished"
what??????kita (aku dan mba K) kaget!! loh dia jurnalis tho???? tak kira cuman demonstran yang bertanya saja makanya kita jawab aja apa adanya....disaat yang sama suami udah nelpon ke HP bolak balik ngajak pulang.....lalu aku kasih tahu kalau ada jurnalis yang ingin mendengar komentar kami.....so we asked her: "which TV programme are you from sis? and then she said: "I am from Islam Channel, we have programme called City Sister" and we want to interview sisters from different background and country, where are you from sis? kami jawab bareng "Indonesia..." mashaAllah this is good" kata sister tadi
"Cuty sister??? ah...I know that programme, I like it, few young sisters host it right? very funky, relax but yet full of information!" Komentarku.
"Thanks you, yeah we tried to make the show appealing for young muslim" si sister melengkapi
sambil nunggu cameraman aku sempetin say Hello ke beberapa teman yang lama tak kujumpai....
akhirnya sang kameraman datang...dan langsung lah dia mulai:
I am Aisha from City Sister, now I am with sisters who come all the way from Indonesia to support the demonstration today.
okay sister, the demonstration that is happening lately really show that Muslim all over the world are united, they have one voice, what do you think we shall do to maintain this unity after this demonstration?
kesempatan pertama diberikan untuk mba K, so mba K menjawab begini (seingatku): "I think demonstration is only one of many activities we can do to show the unity amongst Muslim and of course after all this we need to go to the ummah and discuss with them, make them aware what is excatly going on and whether Israel stop bombing or not, there is ceasfire or not we will keep continue to demonstrate because what we want is liberation of Palestine, giving back the land of palestinian to whom it's belong"
kemudian mic dipindah kepadaku: "what about you sister?" tanya sister Aisha
dengan gugup aku jawab:"I completely agree with the sister that Demo is not only activity that we can do to help palestinian. rather this is a small step amongst all the step we need to take to promote the best solution for the holy Land. after the demo we have to keep continue to create awareness amongst the Muslim Ummah who is the true Israel, we discuss with neighbours and friends, we attend regular meeting to enhance our political awareness and also at the end we will be able to understand the main issue why this things happen. it's all because the true unity is not exist, what is the true unity? the establishment the word of Allah in the muslim land under 1 leader.
I was crying a lot when I heard the letter from Ghaza being read, I feel hurt, I feel that sisters who died in palestine are my sister, children who have been killed are my children, It's painful to watch all of those things. at the same time it's remind me a story in the time the Khalifah Mu'tasim Billah where there was one muslim sister whose honoured being transgressed by a non muslim, I am not sure who he was and the sister was screamed, Ya Mu'tashim!! where are you? there is one of your citizen whose honour has been transgressed! as soon as Khalifah Mu'tashim heard that , he sent an army whose length more than the march today! subhanAllah....look at that example. Nowdays in Gaza it's not only one sister and not only the honour being transgressed, but it's the blood of muslim women and also children's life and sadly no muslim armies defend them! thats one of the reason why I choose the Demo done by Hizbut Tahrir, they bring unique Idea, they are not calling for ceasefire because it's not the solution but they ask for arab rulers to send their army to defend helpless people in Ghaza. and one day we want this armies unite under the same leader that is amirul mukminin under Khilafah State! one more thing...if muslims all over the world have been asked to defend the muslims in ghaza, I am sure there are many would do so but the only one who will stop this is The muslim rulers!
"Thank you sis"....sambut aisha. "My pleasure sis" jawabku sambil bengong, kok panjang banget yah jawabanku, kayaknya aku terlalu bersemangat deh..apa karena aku makan 2 telur sebelum berangkat demo yah????
