Indonesia, Some people judge that there are many religious doctrines placing
female as a lower creature than man. The Muslimah of Hizbut tahrir Indonesia,
women organization of Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia, undertake an awarness dedication
of the position and role of women in Islam and invites Muslims to be regualted
by Syariah Islam. In other words, religion fundamentalism is an intens booster
of their movement. The Islamic political movement with international
leadership outside Indonesia is unprecedented in Indonesia political life. The ideas
adopted by its movement seems like anti-capitalism, liberalism and secularism. So the movement of this organization is claimed as a radical movement. In fact, the MHTI is an anti-violence organization and braves in conveying aspirations as well as can break arguments
adressed to them. According to MHTI, all of accusations adreessed to them is
the source of misery of Muslims. MHTI always performs rally, dialogue such as
seminar and cinference as means of awakening women to the Islamic law. The recent agenda of the MHTI was the International Women’s Conference,
which was attended by 1,750 influential women, from Turkey to the United
Kingdom.
By applying historical approach and verstehen's analyzes
aimed at revealing the motives behind MHTI's actions in all its activities, It
was found that the MHTI movement gave the role of progressively influencing the
women's perspective on social life, politics to the level of government policy
and other aspects of life with Islamic point of view. Islamic political
awareness activities as well as criticism of government policies that are
contrary to Islamic sharia that began in 1983 in Indonesia, created the awakening
of Indonesian Muslim women's thinking as well as being a source of criticism of
the Indonesian government's status quo. So that it causes many hostilities from the mainstream of security of Indonesia’s
