Mengurai Nasionalis-Separatis dan Relijius Terorisme

Akademika, 2016

Tulisan ini membuktikan bahwa bina damai terorisme yang dilakukan di dalam Lembaga Pemasyarakatan (Lapas) dan di luar Lapas dapat berjalan baik dengan pendekatan nasionalisme keagamaan. Keberhasilan strategi bina damai ditandai kesediaan narapidana terorisme bekerjasama dengan pemerintah untuk memberi informasi jaringan dan kepatuhan terhadap Pancasila sebagai dasar negara Indonesia. Tulisan ini menggunakan pendekatan teori konflik dan teori identitas sosial dalam menganalisis pelaku tindak pidana terorisme dan masyarakat partisipan. Pelaku teror merupakan kelompok minoritas yang mengalami kekecewaan akibat tidak terakomodirkepentingannya.

Indonesia adalah negara yang paling majemuk. Harus diakui bahwa pengelolaan terhadapnya merupakan pekerjaan yang tidak mudah. Apalagi meleburkan dalam sebuah pemahaman bahwa dalam kemajemukan tersebut ada kesatuan yang harus dipegang dan diperjuangkan bersama. Oleh kjarena itu, Sumpah Pemuda yang didengungkan pada 28 Oktober 1928 adalah prestasi luar biasa yang patut mendapatkan apresiasi. Demikian pula, kesanggupan para pendiri bangsa, terutama yang berbasis agama Islam, untuk dan demi nasionalisme kemudian mereka menundukkan egoisme karena adanya posisi mayoritasnya juga harus mendapatkan penghargaan. Hanya saja, belakangan ini, di beberapa kalangan semangat nasionalisme sedikit mulai melemah justru karena dipicu oleh semangat keagamaan. Mengingat kondisi demikian, maka perlu ditumbuhkan semangat nasionalisme berbasis spirit agama sehingga menjadi seorang pemeluk agama sejati adalah seorang nasionalis sejati

Perbincangan nasionalisme sepertinya akan mudah digiring berlawanan dengan doktrin keislaman. Padahal, doktrin heterogenitas suku, bangsa, ras, dan bahasa dalam Islam, berumur dan tertulis lebih tua dari siapapun yang pertama kali memproklamirkan nasionalisme. Mesti dibedakan antara nasionalisme sebagai "produk politik" dan nasionalisme sebagai salah satu bagian dari implementasi keislaman.

Identity, as what defines one’s self directly, touches on the question of human existence: how we identify ourselves and affirm our identity and group admist plural reality as with the nation of Indonesia. Indonesian citizens affirm their identity which is religious and at the same time national. As citizens, on the one hand, we give rational reasons when making political demands, and not simply emotional preferences. On the other hand these reasons have a public quality, that is need to be capable of convincing people of various beliefs and nations. For this to take place there needs to be a discernment process between what is a personal faith matter and those convictions that need to be defended in the public square.

Structural Da'wa is characterized by strengthening the Da'wa message on the power structure. Religious nationalism is a form of structural Da'wa strategy appropriate for plural societies such as the Indonesian people. It emerged from resistance to colonization. In Indonesia, religious nationalism played a role in the formation of a constitution that formulated "a Godhead" as the basis of the State. The 1945 Constitution develops legal products that do not conflict with the message of Islamic Da'wa . Another role of religious nationalism is a network of tolerance based on justice by placing State sovereignty above religious sovereignty.
