Muhammad the Reformer

Ever heard of Karen Armstrong? He became a Catholic nun go roma for years before becoming a scientist. He melakuhkan serious research and writing about God more seriously about the Historiy of God. He investigated again Paul's life, not as an adherent of the Catholic, but as a neutral researcher and produced a series of controversial TV show: The Firs Christian. Finally, he tried understand Islam by studying the main character, the prophet Muhammad SaW.Ia report the findings in Muhammad: A western Attempt to Understand Islam.

When reporting the life Paul, a former Catholic nun that describes Paul as a critic. As reported Muhammad, he became a defender of the Prophet Muhammad. Extraordinary. With persistent errors he describes the view west of Rasululah Saw. He defended the honor of the noble Prophet sharper and more clearly than Temple.

One of the objections most people west of the Prophet personally. It is his involvement in various political activities. How could a figure of spiritual purity participate in activities related to the temporal power? How could a prophet kill fellow human beings in wars? Check out how Karen armtrong answer questions or charges:

"After Muhammad migrated pasa in 622, a small Islamic msyarakat had first stepped into political power. Ten years later the Muslims mengusai almost the whole of Arabia and has laid the foundation for a new Arap political system, which allows the Muslims mengusai a vast empire for thousands of years. Contain political success has been the difficulty and the struggle continued. The years were tumultuous in Medina and shows how difficult and how dangerous trying to rebuild society according to the plan of god.

Muhammad had difficulty menerjemakan the holy word of God into human language, which kadanng sometimes fall apart because of the divine. The struggle to unearth the word of God in human society has brought the mulim the limits of his patience and awareness of them so much that sometimes they are on the brink of decision-tops and sometimes the verge of leaving the prophet at all. However, the best evidence indicates keberhasilanya on outstanding policy and konversial.

The decision to fight in Badr, to repel and kill the Jewish tribes or make an appointment at Hudaibiyah, he did not get a direct revelation from God. He asked for help and bermusyawaroh and use common sense. Al-Qur'an, Islam does not ask people to leave common sense or sit back memunggu God to save them with a miracle. Islam is a religion of practical and realistic, which saw human intelligence and divine revelation coexist and work together in harmony.

Menjelanng 622 years, seemed as if the will of God will occur in Arabia. Variety with so many previous prophets, Muhammad was not only teach men and women of vision of a new hope, but also bear the task of trying to save human history and creating a fair masyiarakat, which creates realistic opportunity to every human being, male and women, the sebenarnnya actualize its potential.

Political success of the people have almost become a kind of sacrament for the Muslims. This is the birth sign of the invisible presence of God in the midst of a sacred responsibility and success of Islamic rule in the future be a sign that humanity as a whole can diselamatklan.

From the traveled way that is not worldly Galiela surrounding hills, preach and heal like Jesus in the Gospel, Muhammad hurus involved in the political struggle to reform society and his followers vowed to continue this perjungan.

Instead seluhnya attention on efforts to restructure their personal lives in the context of the pax Romana, like the earlier Christians, Muhammad and his companions tried nenyelamatkan their society, that without struggle there can be no moral or spiritual progress. However, individual safety can not be achieved if a series of endless bloodshed and repression continue in Arabia. A corrupt society and the helter-skelter, can not, will give birth to stagnation and the immorality of the people, except the seal intir hero. So, the situation Arabia abat to go according to plan social safety and individual well.

Madina Muhammad succeeded in creating a strong society and escape the turmoil around him. Other tribes began to join the group, although not entirely komindan mighty, but Muhammad was not the main purpose of political power but to create a good society.

Challenge to the will of god mewujutkan takakan in human history never ends. There will always be dangers and new problems to be faced. Muslims sometimes have to fight, sometimes they have to live in peace, but they have started a project to save the history of the individual as well, to make what should mmenjadi hidmup reality in this dinia.
