Recently @amriadits made a video commentary on the women's soccer tournament in Aceh. The tournament was initiated by the Menpora which indeed received reactions from various layers of society.
For example, in the Amriadi Al Masjidiy Youtube channel, he considered women's football was not beautiful in the country of the Shari'ah. He also asked the Menpora to review every tournament held, not to make anxious in the community.
According to him, women's soccer will be something strange and become a source of study that leads to slander against women. In addition, it is also not in accordance with the culture and customs in Aceh which incidentally as the country of the Veranda of Mecca.
At the end of the video, he also asked the Menpora to cancel the tournament. He also had the chance to propose for Menpora to hold a tournament that matched the Princesses like Tata Boga. In addition, he also proposed that archery can be an alternative in women's tournaments.
Previously it was like being slapped by acehfootball.net that for the first time, women's football was officially performed in Aceh. Four women's football clubs have taken part in the Menpora Cup U-17 Women's Football League Level in Aceh Province.
Aceh Province Men and Youth League Under-17 Women's Coordinator 2019, Ishak Rizal to ACEHFOOTBALL said, "We are very impressed with the success of this activity because we did not expect the ability of girls (Aceh) to cultivate round skin on a green field. It turned out that their appearance and game did not lose much to male players in general. This proves that Acehnese women, especially many students, enjoy soccer. "
But it turned out that this activity received a rejection from the community. Communication Forum for Civil Society Organizations and OKP Guards for Islamic Shari'a in Lhokseumawe City criticized the existence of the U-17 Women's Soccer League held by the Indonesian Student Football League (BLiSPI) Agency some time ago at the former PT Arun Batuphat Stadium in Lhokseumawe.
The coordinator of the CSO and CSO Communication Forum Guards for the Islamic Shari'a of Lhokseumawe City, Tgk Sulaiman Lhokweng, when holding a press conference in front of the Great Mosque of Islamic Center on Thursday (4/7), said that they criticized the existence of women's soccer league in Lhokseumawe.
So that a number of attitude statements were issued, including rejecting all forms of activities that were contrary to Islamic law and the local wisdom of the Acehnese people.
H. Sudirman alias Haji Uma, DPD RI member from Aceh joined in criticizing the Kemenpora Cup national level U-17 Women's Football event held at the Pertun Arun Gas Stadium, Lhokseumawe, Aceh, from July to September 2019.
This was conveyed by Haji Uma on Thursday (04/07/2019) night, after learning about the event from the news of one of the local media in Aceh.
Because of that, Haji Uma hoped that the Kemenpora and the implementing party would stop the event for the considerations mentioned above. According to him, at this time there has begun to appear a reaction of resistance from elements of society in Aceh. If it continues, it will give birth to turmoil in the people of Aceh.
In addition, the Aceh Ulama Consultative Assembly (MPU) also spoke up in response to the women's soccer competition which took place in the city of Lhokseumawe (30/6). The Deputy Chair of the MPU, Teungku H. Faisal Ali, said that it was unlawful for soccer to be played by women, especially in Aceh.
"In general, the atmosphere in the area (Aceh) of women playing football is unlawful," said Lem Faisal. The law of haram is not only for women but also applies to men who play without closing their genitals. Moreover, it is played by women by displaying their bodies and being watched by everyone.
Meanwhile, the Head of the Aceh Government Public Relations and Protocol Bureau, Rahmad Raden responded to the same thing. He said, there were no rules for women's football in Aceh.
"We are in the area of Islamic law, there is no need to force all branches of sports to be in Aceh," he said. Regarding the circular letter on the rules, Rahmad said, so far the government has not issued an appeal.
"There is local wisdom in Aceh, so far there has been no circular letter," said Rahmad. []
