[M3B] Janji Nabi Muhammad kepada Umat Kristen
Satu artikel lagi, tentang dialog antariman, satu lagi, tulisan Muqtedar Khan. (entah kuota posting saya masih ada atau tidak, tapi kan saya moderator hehe) Pada tahun 628M, delegasi Nasrani mengunjungi Nabi Muhammad dan meminta perlindungan. Dan inilah janji Rasul yang mulia itu kepada umat Kristen: This is a message from Muhammad ibn Abdullah, as a covenant to those who adopt Christianity, near and far, we are with them. Verily I, the servants, the helpers, and my followers defend them, because Christians are my citizens; and by God! I hold out against anything that displeases them. No compulsion is to be on them. Neither are their judges to be removed from their jobs nor their monks from their monasteries. No one is to destroy a house of their religion, to damage it, or to carry anything from it to the Muslims' houses. Should anyone take any of these, he would spoil God's covenant and disobey His Prophet. Verily, they are my allies and have my secure charter against all that they hate. No one is to force them to travel or to oblige them to fight. The Muslims are to fight for them. If a female Christian is married to a Muslim, it is not to take place without her approval. She is not to be prevented from visiting her church to pray. Their churches are to be respected. They are neither to be prevented from repairing them nor the sacredness of their covenants. No one of the nation (Muslims) is to disobey the covenant till the Last Day (end of the world). Masihkah kita berharap syafaat Rasulullah di Padang Mahsyar nanti, ketika gereja-gereja tidak dapat kita lindungi? salam, http://www.middle-east-online.com/english/?id=36388 First Published 2009-12-28 Prophet Muhammad’s Promise to Christians The document is not a modern human rights treaty but even thought it was penned in 628 A.D. it clearly protects the right to property, freedom of religion, freedom of work, and security of the person, says Muqtedar Khan. Muslims and Christians together constitute over fifty percent of the world and if they lived in peace, we will be half way to world peace. One small step that we can take towards fostering Muslim-Christian harmony is to tell and retell positive stories and abstain from mutual demonization. In this article I propose to remind both Muslims and Christians about a promise that Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) made to Christians. The knowledge of this promise can have enormous impact on Muslim conduct towards Christians. Muslims generally respect the precedent of their Prophet and try to practice it in their lives. In 628 AD, a delegation from St. Catherine’s Monastery came to Prophet Muhammed and requested his protection. He responded by granting them a charter of rights, which I reproduce below in its entirety. St. Catherine’s Monastery is located at the foot of Mt. Sinai and is the world’s oldest monastery. It possesses a huge collection of Christian manuscripts, second only to the Vatican, and is a world heritage site. It also boasts the oldest collection of Christian icons. It is a treasure house of Christian history that has remained safe for 1400 years under Muslim protection. The Promise to St. Catherine: This is a message from Muhammad ibn Abdullah, as a covenant to those who adopt Christianity, near and far, we are with them. Verily I, the servants, the helpers, and my followers defend them, because Christians are my citizens; and by God! I hold out against anything that displeases them. No compulsion is to be on them.

No one of the nation (Muslims) is to disobey the covenant till the Last Day (end of the world). The first and the final sentence of the charter are critical. They make the promise eternal and universal. Muhammed asserts that Muslims are with Christians near and far straight away rejecting any future attempts to limit the promise to St. Catherine alone. By ordering Muslims to obey it until the Day of Judgment the charter again undermines any future attempts to revoke the privileges. These rights are inalienable. Muhammed declared Christians, all of them, as his allies and he equated ill treatment of Christians with violating God’s covenant. A remarkable aspect of the charter is that it imposes no conditions on Christians for

Subhanallah, saya pikir yang kirim artikel teman dekat saya Dedi Soegardi, makanya saya panggil Kang' dedih.. Terima kasih Mas Dwi Soegardi, atas artikel dan informasi situs Google yang dapat men-stranslate alih bahasanya, alhamdullilah jadi semakin luas pengetahuan kita... Amin.

Sesungguhnya saya, pelayan-pelayan, penolong, dan pengikut saya membela mereka, karena Kristen adalah warga saya, dan oleh Tuhan! Aku bertahan melawan sesuatu yang tidak menyenangkan mereka. Tidak ada paksaan adalah menjadi pada mereka. Hakim mereka juga tidak akan dihapus dari pekerjaan mereka atau rahib mereka dari biara mereka. Tidak seorang pun adalah menghancurkan sebuah rumah dari agama mereka, merusak itu, atau untuk melakukan apa dari itu bagi kaum muslimin 'rumah. Kalau ada orang yang mengambil ini, ia akan merusak perjanjian Allah dan mematuhi Nabi-Nya. Sesungguhnya, mereka adalah saya punya sekutu dan aman charter terhadap segala sesuatu yang mereka benci. Tidak ada yang memaksa mereka untuk melakukan perjalanan atau mewajibkan mereka untuk melawan. Itu Muslim berjuang untuk mereka. Jika seorang wanita Kristen menikah dengan seorang Muslim, tidak akan terjadi tanpa persetujuan. Dia tidak akan dicegah dari mengunjungi gerejanya untuk berdoa. Gereja-gereja mereka harus dihormati. Mereka tidak harus dicegah dari memperbaiki mereka dan tidak kesucian perjanjian mereka. Tidak ada salah satu bangsa (umat Islam) adalah untuk tidak mematuhi perjanjian sampai Hari terakhir (akhir dunia).
