إندونيسيا: المسلمون يتظاهرون رفضا لمسابقات ملكات الجمال غير الأخلاقية

- خبر من مصادر إنجليزية.

لا يزال المسلمون يواصلون تظاهراتهم بالعديد من مدن "إندونيسيا" ذات الغالبية المسلمة، وذلك إعرابًا عن رفضهم لمسابقة ملكات جمال العالم التي تتضمن العديد من المخالفات الشرعية وغير الأخلاقية.

وقد أكد المتظاهرون أن إقامة هذه المسابقة بالبلاد الإسلامية نذير شؤم ومستلزم نزول عقاب الله تعالى.

وقد أصدر مجلس العلماء الإندونيسي قرارًا في أغسطس الماضي يدعم فيه العلماء الذين يرفضون استضافة الحكومة لنحو هذه المسابقات المخالفة للشريعة الإسلامية، وهو الاعتراض الذي لقي التأييد من المجالس والجمعيات الإسلامية وأفراد المجتمع؛ حيث يبلغ المسلمون في "إندونيسيا" نحو 240 مليون مسلم. المصدر: شبكة الألوكة.

Indonesians Protest “Immoral” Miss World

Indonesian Muslims ramped up their protests against Miss World pageant on Wednesday, September 4, as protests began to spread across the Muslim majority country days before the contest starts.

“Miss World is an immoral event,” one protester shouted to the crowd in Bandung, Agence France Presse (AFP) report on Wednesday, September 4.

“If it goes ahead, we will all be punished by God,” he added as some 300 protesters responded with chants of “God is great”.

Anger has been growing at the decision to stage the Miss World beauty pageant in the world's most populous Muslim-majority nation.

Yesterday, about 200 protesters marched to the MNC Tower, the building that houses the local organizer of the contest, in the Indonesian capital Jakarta.

They held up banners with “Reject Miss World that exploits women” and “Go to hell Miss World” on them, and shouted “Allah akbar,” or God is great, outside the building, which was guarded by 300 police.

"The contest will invite danger and vice. Muslims must never let this happen," one protester shouted to the crowd.

"We call for war against Miss World. We urge the Indonesian government to call off the Miss World event," added Irfan Awwas, chairman of the Indonesian Council of Mujahideen.

Protests spread on Wednesday across the country when more than 600 demonstrators took to the streets in two other major cities on the main island of Java - Surabaya and Bandung.

In Surabaya, about 350 Muslims took to the streets.

They brandished banners reading “Do not sully Indonesia with the Miss World event” as well as banners reading "Boycott Miss World sponsors.”

Earlier in August 2013, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) voiced support to scholars opposing the government’s decision to host the Miss World beauty pageant.

Deemed the highest Islamic authority in the country, the MUI urged the country's Muslims, more than 90 percent of the 240 million population, not to watch the pageant on television.
