Ekstremis Islam Serang Umat Katolik yang Berdoa Rosario
Jakarta (AsiaNews) -Sekelompok orang yang terdiri dari ekstremis Islam
menyerang orang-orang Katolik yang sedang berdoa Rosario 11 Oktober lalu dan
mengancam akan membakar rumah di mana mereka berkumpul. Para penyerang, yang
mengkleim diri mereka bagian dari Front Pembela Islam (FPI) menyerbu rumah
salah seorang komunitas Katolik dari Paroki Kristus Juru-Selamat (Salvator) di
Jakarta Barat.
Para penyerang itu memaksa agar doa rosario dihentikan segera, sambil
mengancam akan membakar tempat tersebut. Mereka memaksa semua yang hadir
termasuk Ketua Lingkungan agar menandatangani suatu pernyataan bahwa mereka
tidak akan menyelenggarakan lagi doa rosario di rumah-rumah di lingkungan
tersebut.
Serangan tersebut menambah ketakutan dan keprihatinan di antara umat
Katolik Indonesia yang takut akan tindakan-tindakan bermusuhan lebih lanjut
dari FPI. FPI juga menjadi otak ditutupnya 24 rumah- tempat ibadah di Jawa
barat.
Bagi orang-orang Katolik di seluruh dunia, termasuk di Indonesia, bulan
Oktober dan Mei adalah bulan-bulan yang didedikasikan kepada SP Maria. Di
Indonesia, umat beriman menyatakan iman mereka dengan berziarah ke
tempat-tempat ziarah Maria di negeri itu dan dengan mendoakan doa rosario di
paroki-paroki.
Pertemuan untuk mendoakan doa rosario bersama, lebih dikenal dengan Doa
Rosario Bersama., biasanya diselenggarakan sekali seminggu di salah satu rumah
komunitas.

Islamic extremists attack Catholics reciting rosary
The attack took place on 11 October in a private house. Armed men broke
in and threatened to burn the place down if the prayer went ahead. Fears are
rising about further violence against Indonesian believers.
Jakarta (AsiaNews) - A group composed of Islamic extremists attacked
Catholics praying the rosary on 11 October and threatened to burn down the
house they were gathered in. The assailants, who claimed to be part of the
Islamic Defender Front (Front Pembela Islam, FPI), invaded the house of one of
the Catholic community belonging to the parish of Christ Salvator in western
Jakarta.
The men forced the marian prayer to stop immediately, threatening to burn
the place down. They forced all those present including the Ketua Lingkungan
(informal parish leader - ed. note) to sign a declaration that they will not
hold any more rosary gatherings in houses in the area.
The attack has fuelled fears and apprehension among Indonesian Catholics
who fear further possible hostile moves from the FPI. The front is also behind
the closure of 24 home-churches in western Java.
For Catholics all over the world, including those in Indonesia, October
and May are months dedicated especially to the Virgin Mary. In Indonesia,
believers manifest their faith by undertaking pilgrimages to the country's
Marian shrines and by reciting the rosary in parishes.
Meeting to recite the rosary together, better known as Doa Rosario
Bersama, is usually organised once a week in one of the houses of the community.
