Commission VIII of the Indonesian House of Representatives has\naffirmed that the views and fatwas of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI)\nregarding the management of dam (penalty) for Hajj must be considered as\nthe primary reference. As the religious authority in Indonesia, MUI\u2019s\nposition is considered crucial in ensuring that the Sharia aspects of\nthe Hajj pilgrimage are maintained.<\/p>\n
This statement comes amid discussions on optimizing the use of Hajj\ndam livestock so that it can be brought back to Indonesia and\ndistributed to those in need. Commission VIII emphasizes that every\ntechnical policy taken by the government must be in line with the\nIslamic legal framework established by religious scholars.<\/p>\n
A member of Commission VIII of the Indonesian House of\nRepresentatives stated that in matters of worship, the government,\nthrough the Ministry of Religious Affairs, should not act alone without\ninvolving careful consideration from MUI. This aims to ensure that\ninnovations in Hajj management do not violate established Islamic\njurisprudence.<\/p>\n
\u201cMUI\u2019s views on Hajj dam represent the religious authority. We must\nrespect this as the main foundation before moving on to technical or\nadministrative policies,\u201d said one of the leaders of Commission VIII\nduring a working meeting at the Parliament Building.<\/p>\n
One of the points that continues to be promoted is the mechanism for\nslaughtering and sending dam livestock from Saudi Arabia to Indonesia.\nMUI has provided its views on the validity of distributing sacrificial\nmeat or dam outside the area where the slaughter takes place (for a\nbroader benefit).<\/p>\n
Commission VIII of the Indonesian House of Representatives hopes that\nthe government will soon formulate an efficient technical scheme while\nstill referring to the Sharia standards that have been validated by MUI.\nThe following are the crucial points that are of concern:<\/p>\n
With the synergy between Commission VIII, the Ministry of Religious\nAffairs, and MUI, it is hoped that the implementation of this year\u2019s\nHajj pilgrimage will not only be successful operationally but also have\na significant economic and social impact on the Indonesian nation\nthrough professional dam management.<\/p>\n
The Ministry of Religious Affairs has issued a circular that\naccommodates differences of opinion (khilafiyah) among scholars\nregarding the place of dam slaughter.<\/p>\n
