We and all of you may already know from history, about the entrance and spread of Islam in
The "Wali Songo" that have a large contribution in the spread of Islam in Java, tried to penetrate and understand these traditions. So, introduce in the teachings of Islam, they use methods that are received by the local community. The scholars of Islam does not teach this in frontal and use violence. They changed the way of peace and a high tolerance for others. They combine the tradition and then is enhanced with Islamic teachings. Because the most important teachings of Islam and can be received into their hearts. One example is as Sunan Kalijaga. He teaches Islamic art and the use of puppet show, so accepted by society at that time.
Indeed, what is done by the "Wali Songo" is set en example to the Prophet Muhammad. He teaches Islam with tenderness and tolerance. There is no compulsion in religious. God sent messengers to the world is not perfect but for a noble character. When the apostle insisted heart, the unbelievers will avoid of himself, and from the teachings of Islam. So, the propaganda methods here does not become effective. Once again, that the Islamic world to present this as a "rahmatan lil 'alamin."
How do you think, whether agree if we will teaches a dogma, then we should be The way of peace, tolerance and maintain the character of our people? You may agree or not. Please comment in my opinion!
