The Spirit Rennaisans of NU


AL-Muhafadhotu 'ala Qodiimis-Salih Al-akhdu wa bil jadiidil ashlah, citing one of the principles formulated by the fonding father NU, the author would like to reflect on these rules to fight historical amnesia. Keeping good traditions and accept modernity better to make the Nahdlatul Ulama '(NU) as the pioneer of the largest religious social organizations that still exist in Indonesia. Keeping the traditional values ​​and culture of the archipelago's typical combined with a spirit of renewal is a brilliant formula.
Forum annual meeting nahdliyyin "prestigious" in the NU getting closer, this grand forum, an important moment for revitalizing again the values ​​of NU's All that has been reduced by a variety of material things. To reinvent the NU khittah like when the conference was held in situbondo which resulted in a strategic decision regarding the future progress of NU Khittah back to 1926. Back to khittah 1926 NU. NU returned to his personality means comprehensive, both in terms of faith, muamalah, Syari’ah, manhaj (paradigm), are also planning public relations and religion as manifested Hasyim (National halaqoh June 11, 2014).
Muktamar NU 27th held in Situbondo was heated due to the differences and contradictions of various sides in the NU. Cross different thinking between acceptance of Pancasila as the foundation of the organization and also the refusal. The final decision to produce a new breakthrough in the NU, which is better known as khittah NU 1926 meant the return of an organization that is engaged in the socio-religious break away from practical politics. Achmad Siddiq was selected as the Rais' Aam and Abdurrahman Wahid as chairman Tanfidhiyah has opened the tap of new thinking for the dynamics of thought NU. NU has not become a political party, in the spirit of returning browse for the purpose of establishing the history of this organization, an important breakthrough for receiving pancasaila as an organizational principle is an important achievement in this organization.
When this Congress also have an important role in welcoming NU 100 years standing in the archipelago. Nahdlatul Ulama 'undeniable become the largest Islamic organization in quantity, but it is not accompanied by the quality of its members. This also highlighted various circles outside and from within his own organization. In quality intellectual and NU stagnant economy, caused by the spread ketidakmeratanya intellectual quality and economy, which is only felt by the holders of power shoots NU.
With the theme "Islam Nusantara, caring Indonesia, to build the civilization of the world", NU wants to reaffirm its role as the Indonesian Islamic organization. "This we Indonesian people are Moslem, not the Muslims who happen to live in Indonesia," said Musthofa bisri (Rais' Am NU). Islam archipelago in question is Islam wal Jama'ah ahlussunnah who maintain traditional values ​​and culture of the archipelago without losing the purity of Islam itself. Consequently, we should be able to sort out which one is really the teachings of Islam, which is biased traditions and Arab culture.

Islam Nusantara, caring Indonesia
entering the archipelago before the Islamic religion is a great nation that has civilization advantage compared with other nations. Through historical and cultural heritage that until now can be perceived existence. After the Islamic religion in through various channels of trade and by the Wali Songo, the archipelago entered a new phase as a nation that largely embrace to the religion of Islam with its cultural roots. Archipelago with various traditions and cultural richness that has been rooted in synergy with the religion of Islam produce embryos forerunner to the establishment of Nahdlatul Ulama '(NU).
NU as a religious social organization which is based traditions of the archipelago, plays an important role as guardians of the culture and traditions of the people of Indonesia. This is evidenced by amaliyah Nahdliyin (nahdliyyin) is full of culture and tradition of the archipelago, but the esensi is Islam. NU became custodian of the nation's culture and traditions of Indonesia that was not cut off from their cultural roots, through the rejection of Westernization and the Arabization of the more vigorous attack Indonesian nation. NU has a civic attitude embodied in the 1926 NU khittah namely, tawassuth (moderate) and i'tidal (straight), tasammuh (tolerant) and tawazzun (balanced). It is not wrong NU appreciate and preserve the culture and traditions of Indonesian nation before the advent of Islam.
The attitude of Nu is tolerant and moderate supposedly manifested in life and living civilisation, to make forward of Indonesia. Indonesian caring efforts have been done through a variety of everyday amaliyah nahdliyyin, but there are weaknesses in the implementation of this amaliyah. Absence makes the effort to reform the process of taking care becomes stagnant. This can’t be allowed to continued if it does not want NU become Islamic organization that is trapped in stagnation and conservatism. NU must continue to move dynamically follow the developments and challenges of an increasingly modern era while maintaining the culture and tradition of the archipelago. This is the core of the rules above the breath of the effort to care for ddan maintain a good tradition in the spirit of modernization and renewal for the better.
Towards a World Civilization
Undeniably, the central role of the leader in the advancement of the organization, to meet the challenges kedapan, through this conference to-33, needed a helmsman is revolutionary in menahkodai NU. The figure who mastered the science of religion, social sciences and know in depth the roots of the culture and traditions of Indonesia and can communicate with the changing times that will bring progress to the NU and Indonesia in the eyes of the world.
The periode from Rennaisans of NU begins when chaired by Abdurrahman Wahid (Gus Dur), NU rise from adversity (they became parties) to return to the "rails" of a socio-religious organization. NU rapidly growing intellectually and economically, through liberation and creative thinking for young people NU release of stagnation. Gus Dur is able to consolidate the young and the old to jointly promote NU. NU known to the world through him as an Islamic organization that is tolerant and not radical. In the previous conditions, NU known simply as a collection of people who are stuck in old-fashioned mysticism and stagnation.

Presumably in welcoming this conference, we need a review of the history of the congress in situbondo as a starting point rennaisans NU era. Pick up and reflect the values ​​of the spirit manifested in progress for the upcoming conference. Hopefully, with the theme "Islam Nusantara, Caring Indonesia towards world civilization" was able to bring NU become an icon of the pioneers of Islam "smile" into the world civilization. personally berkeyakian NU will bounce back towards world civilization. Will history repeated?
