Daily Ummat ■ Habib Rizieq Shihab (HRS) previously planned to hold a Da'wah Safari to a number of areas in the country. Initially, the Grand Imam of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) wanted to campaign for a Moral Revolution.
However, HRS's efforts then became the public spotlight after mass demonstrations in Megamendung, Bogor and Petamburan, Jakarta. Until finally HRS chose to rest.
The latest news is that in a number of areas there has been resistance to the presence of HRS. This rejection came from a number of small groups such as Banten, Bekasi and Medan.
When asked for Akbar Faizal's response to this matter, the Secretary General of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) Munarman said that the rejection did not come from the community.
Munarman admitted that he had investigated the refusal. For example in Bekasi. "After tracing it, it turns out that someone regulates it, there are provisions from certain parties," he said in a video broadcast on Akbar Faizal's YouTube channel without censorship, quoted on Tuesday, November 24, 2020.
In fact, this rejection actually met with resistance from various elements of society. As is known, Laskar Pendekar Banten had apologized for the refusal because it was brought by a certain group.
"Yes, I saw construction." They deliberately made it up to be nudged by the lower classes, ”he said.
In his conversation with Akbar Faizal, Munarman told about the FPI movement in the 1998-2005 period. Although he only joined FPI around 2010, Munarman gathered information from his seniors at FPI.
During this period, FPI intensively carried out various acts of sweeping or raids on places of immorality.
He said that the action was actually directed by a person or group of people who provided information to FPI. Armed with this information, FPi took action by taking action to the place of immorality.
"It is said that the person in charge of providing information finally asked the manager of the immoral place. He billed the manager. If you don't want to be raided, then you pay the deposit. This is not a high-ranking official," but from the lower class, "he said.
Even funnier, he continued, the person who provided the information brought a number of media crews. Then blame the FPI. "It's the same person," said Munarman with a laugh. (**)
