Everyone is talking about equality and justice, including the Minister and the MP, and of course not least the women ulama. Some 500 of them, most of them religious leaders and teachers at the grassroots level. They had no qualms, no hesitation to declaring haram to child marriage and sexual violence. They were amazing. And that's because they are so rooted to the ground and see the suffering of women and girls on a daily basis. The Minister in his closing speech committed himself to pushing for legislative change to raise the minimum age of marriage to 18. Musawah is so proud that all our Indonesian friends who are behind this national congress are a part of our movement and the immense preparation and consultations they held and the feminist principles they used in working with the women religious leaders from all over Indonesia to prepare for this hugely historical congress. They started their gender training of grassroots religious leaders (men and women) some 20 years ago and this is the culmination of that persistent grassroots work. | Everyone is talking about equality and justice, including the Minister and the MP, and of course not least the women ulama.

And we should all be proud that they used the Musawah Framework for Action to justify each fatwa they produced - grounding it in Islamic arguments, lived realities, constitutional guarantees of equality and non-discrimination and human rights principles. Way to go! Nana (Kamala Chandrakirana), Nani (Zulninarni), Nur Rofiah. Faqihuddin AK, Kyai Hussein Muhammad were among the key brains behind this national congress and others involved in our Global Life stories pilot project were also a part of this. So it was a great reunion too to meet them all again. They really should be so proud of themselves. | And we should all be proud that they used the Musawah Framework for Action to justify each [[fatwa]] they produced - grounding it in Islamic arguments, lived realities, constitutional guarantees of equality and non-discrimination and human rights principles.

A thousand kudos for inspiring us all, fellow Indonesian Advocates. I am attaching two photos of the moving opening ceremony where they had women religious leaders from different provinces standing on stage, one person (woman in green on the right) holding a Qur'an, next to her, a woman holding a book of hadith, another the national constitution, another holding up CEDAW !!!!!!! pledging their belief in equality and justice based on these sources, and nurtured by water (woman holding the jug) and a plant to nurture growth and protect the environment. How cool is that!!!! | A thousand kudos for inspiring us all, fellow Indonesian Advocates.
