Speaker certification? Rejected public and failed miserably. The people consider it a form of control & restriction. Speakers will feel monitored and monitored. In the New Order era aja not until then, why now tightened?
Failed to certify, Kemenag released 200 preachers. Criteria? Have competence, good reputation, have a national commitment. Meaning, the lecturer outside 200 is incompetent, his reputation is bad and has no national commitment?
The number 200 is temporary, can still add. As soon as Kemenag answers. The public then asked: if not completed yet, why has it been released? Why is it spread in the media? Why not professional?
Then, what does this Release Kemenag release? Do you want to assert that 200 preachers are pro-government, others do not? Are others considered too critical to the government? Or suspected to smell radical? Or just talkative, because there are bombs exploded in Surabaya and Riau? Let be considered to play a role against radicalism? Or because his lectures were too critical of the government? In order to appear diplomatic, Menag replied: "Not to be included, to be considered" and other class.
After the release of 200 Kemenag version speakers, there appeared release of non-Kemenag speakers. Concerning the competence, reputation and national commitment, the names of these figures are not lost. This is evidence of strong protests and rejection from Muslims.
This situation can actually divide between scholars and jama'ah. Do not let Kemenag be considered as a source of division. And this is counterproductive to the efforts of many parties who are trying to reduce social noise & knit ukhuwah nationality.
The MOM step became a blunder because it was not consolidated well with mass organizations, Islamic institutions and scholars.
Do not let the release of 200 preachers have the impression politicians preachers. If this impression strengthens, the fear of the assumption that Kemenag participate in politics and turned into a political institution will surface. In the end, there is a clerical petition, ustaz and lecturer asked Kemenag to be removed. Finally, your master's weapon.
