INVITATION LETTER

To all concern people of the world, especially, Media Practitioners, Human Rights Activists, Cultural Activists,
Civil Activists, Peace Activists, Social Activist, Art Activists and Legal Activist and of different kinds of activists.

Historically, legally and politically, Sulu Sultanate was never subjugated and conquered by any foreign colonizers,
including the current neo-colonial Republic of the Philippines.

Sulu Sultanate was annexed to the Philippine Republic on the 4th of July 1946 by the colonialist through Treaty of
Peace signed in Paris on 10 December 1898 with the payment of twenty million dollars.

EDITORIAL
THE ANSWER OF OPTIONS IS INDEPENDENCE?
United Tau Sug People, the citizens of the Sultanate
of Sulu Darul Islam have always believed, it is only
independence that could solve the economic, social and
cultural problems in Sulu Archipelago. But many oth-
ers don’t believe it so, especially the “professionals”
Tau Sug abroad.
The Tau Sug in abroad said to be keeping their pro-
fession by working abroad because they don’t want
to waste the time, money and efforts they spent to get
their degree under the Philippines to support the Sulu
independence. Accordingly Sulu government can nev-
er give them salary and it is impossible to get the Sulu
independence. That’s what they believed.
Impossible or not, it doesn’t matter. What matters is
the spirit of believing that independence in Sulu shall
come. It is not the people who will give victory. God
will give the victory to the people who work for truth,
justice and freedom. Free from Riba in terms of eco-
nomic endeavour, truth for the old-age struggle of non-
ending-zigzag direction and justice for the victims of
oppression.
The masses shall understand that independence is free
from any form of tag from foreign dominion and domi-
nation. It is also having a free trading market system of
Riba, free economic, social and cultural traditions. It is
a trading from mutual understanding not by the force of
the enforcement of non-Islamic human-created policy
for unequal business interest and charges. The spirit of
independence is by the way of non-haram monetary
and free trade market.
Sultanate of Sulu sovereignty and de jure sovereign na-
tive people don’t belong to the Philippines. So Philip-
pines have no rights to give independence of the Sul-
tanate of Sulu and hold its sovereignty. The ingredient
of independence is “will of the people” to freedom and
self-determination under international law. It is basic
human rights granted from Allah.
Prof. Umar Ibrahim Vadillo once said, “God will you
give you victory, Sulu is too small to free itself, but too
big to free the world. You can save Nusantara by using
Shariah Currency, the Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham.”-

...Dark Justice
The incident happened a day af-
ter the Armed Forces of the Phil-
ippines shelled and bombed ad-
jacent barrios on the Feast Eid Il
Fitr Day, forcing Muslims to skip
the special prayers and celebra-
tions due to intense bombard-
ments, killing innocent civilians
and work animals. A battalion
of AFP soldiers tried to ambush
the MNLF contingent in the area
by taking positions at a nearby
mosque before dawn prayer. The
alibi was, as usual, allegedly the
presence of “Abu Sayaf Group”
(ASG) in the area. Unfortunate-
ly, they were spotted by a civil-
ian who arrived at the mosque
ahead of others, who in turn
alerted the MNLF forces. Being
masters of the local terrain, the
MNLF forces managed to encir-
cle and inflict severe damage to
the attacking government forces
in the ensuing encounter after the
break of dawn. The US service-
men, accordingly, were advisors
to AFP troops that were poise to
take over the MNLF Camp in
the vicinity, without prior notice
or arrangements. They thought
the MNLF forces had left af-
ter a heavy barrage of artillery
and heavy bombs dropped in
the campsite. But to think that
those American servicemen were
only a private and a sergeant, it
is unlikely they could provide
any better advice to high rank-
ing AFP officers some of whom
were trained in West Point, USA,
unless they were - Gikap 4 ...

MANIFESTO
In the name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Merciful
We, the United Tausug Citizens (UTC) hereby declare the restoration of the de jure government and
assertion of the independence of the Sultanate of Sulu based from the TRUTH, RIGHTS, JUSTICE,
FREEDOM and LIBERTY as guaranteed under the provisions of the United Nations Charter.
The President and government officials of the United States have promised that the sovereignty, in-
dependence and integrity of our homeland, the Islamic Nationhood of the Sultanate of Sulu would be
honored, respected, and protected as embodied in the treaty known as the BATES TREATY of 1899
entered into between the United States of America and the Sultanate of Sulu.
The Islamic State of Sultanate of Sulu is an unconquered nation, and its relation with the United States
was thru treaties of friendship. The illegal incorporation of the Sultanate of Sulu to the newly created
Republic of the Philippines was in gross violation of the 1787 United States Constitution, and blatant
abused of the human rights of the Bangsa Sug or Tausug People.
Based on the principle of Right of Self-Determination as embodied in the United Nations Charter which
provides that; “ All peoples have the right of self-determination. By virtue of that right they fully deter-
mine their political status and freely pursue their economic, social and cultural development.” Thus, the
United Tausug Citizens (UTC) of the Sultanate of Sulu invoke the right of self defense to achieve our
mission as recognized by the United Nations Charter under Article 51 which states: “that nothing in the
Charter shall impair the inherent right of indviduals to collective self-defense.”
Our noble aspiration to reassert the nationhood of the Sultanate of Sulu shall be done with totally peace-
ful movement, diplomatic and democratic process, avoiding all kinds of temptations, persuasion and
suggestions for the employment of force and violence to achieve our goals.
We are therefore earnestly appeal to the peace loving peoples here and abroad to assist us to restore the
Statehood of the Sultanate of Sulu in accordance with the principles of the United Nations.
With our full confidence and conviction, the restoration of the sovereignty and independence of the Sul-
tanate of Sulu will finally achieve genuine peace, prosperity, and political stability in Sulu archipelago
and its nearby territorial jurisdiction.
So help us God. Done on the 17th day of November 2009, at Freedom Hall Capitol, Patikul, Sulu.

even without the usual immigration and other normal clearances, through the facilities of the
US Embassy inManila. This episode created the impression that Meiring was the suspected
bomber, closely monitored by the FBI/CIA and the US Embassy in Manila in cahoots with
the AFP/GRP.
The Sipadan Episode
The plotters of the Sipadan hostage drama was also careful not to include Americans among
the hostage taken from the island off Sabah East Coast and brought to the initially unin-
volved Abu Sayyaf Group in Jolo.
The Misuari Saga
Misuari was so far a very good and honest leader. In the beginning, he was a very simple
unassuming Maas(elder) of everyone. He was the only leader I know who can afford to travel
without money in his pocket. But after an accidental journey which separated him from his
assistant who had the money, now he won’t go out unless he has more than enough in his
credit cards. But that was long ago. Now, he is a really transformed man, a leader who cannot
take other’s opinion as opposed to his own. As a consequence, those that he did not purge
from the MNLF leadership have deserted him too. Now the people around him are classified
as minnows, never been known or seen anytime before in the company of the Mujahideen
Moro. For that matter, he can hardly win any fair election apart from the one where he first
ran for governor of ARMM. President FVR virtually rigged that election to make him win so
that he could surrender more of the Moro people’s ancestral rights, the people proud of their
ancient heritage, sovereign in their own right and never been conquered. Today he seems vir-
tually isolated, shunned by the majority of the MNLF old guards, his leadership repudiated
although still holding a slight respect by the OIC for being signatory to several Agreements
and important documents. Otherwise, majority of the MNLF leaders and Moro masses have
already resolved to find a new leader, even unheard of before, who speaks the truth and stand
by his word. Misuari may decide to migrate to other countries rather than to stay in an inde-
pendent Sulu Sultanate ruled by the officers he had earlier purged from the MNLF
The prime movers of the ‘de-colonization’ of the Sultanate of Sulu are however thankful
of Misuari because his leadership blunders have made it easier for the new movement to
prosper and achieve peoples’ support and acceptance beyond expectation. Many of the dis-
gruntled MNLF officers and members have jumped ship to join the Sulu Sultanate’s band-
wagon. Therefore, it is only a matter of time that the proponents of the new movement will
eventually declare the assertion of the Sultanate’s sovereignty and independence from the
Republic of the Philippines.
As Misuari, together with a few aspiring sultans allied to him and the neo-MNLF personnel
have no part in the re-institution of the Sulu Sultanate, it is feared they may be tapped by the
GRP to distract and subvert the peaceful transition of the monarchy to independence. Hope-
fully, however, he will not stoop so low as to swallow enemy atrocious maneuvers to destroy
the fabric of Moro society within the Sultanate of Sulu that he was supposed to lead, but
which he had chosen to ditch, hook-line-sinker. (http://camlun.multiply.com)

....EDITORIAL
“...it is only a matter of time that the proponents of the new movement will eventually de-
clare the assertion of the (Sulu) Sultanate’s sovereignty and independence from the Republic
of the Philippines.” Hadji Zakaria Abdullah concluded.
“Tausug people have never agreed or signed any document on the Sulu Sultanate becoming
part of Philippines, and of course they never accepted to be called Filipinos, a slave name
given after the disgraceful king of Spain Philip II who died from syphilis 400 years ago,
until today Tausugs issue their own birth certificates stating their citizenship not as of Philip-
pines but of the Sultanate of Sulu Darul Islam.” An Economist from Kazakhstan, Mr. Ghany
Aoueskahnov commented.
Sultanate of Sulu is hoped to be one of the centers of the Islamic revival in Southeast Asia
through restoration of paying Zakat using by Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham. The month of
Ramadan, fasting month of the Muslim around the world is the month of paying Zakat Fitra.
Zakat simply cannot be paid by using fiat money.
The answer is only within the Tau Sug whether to do or never the assertion of independence!
It is not impossible that Sultanate of Sulu Darul Islam cannot become a free trading island
country of Southeast Asia of Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham.
17th November 2010 will be part of the written historical significant facts in the books of
peace journey of the Sultanate of Sulu as the beginning of the victory and glory of Tau Sug.
The United Tau Sug People, the citizens’ declaration is assertion of independence. Recogni-
tion from the United Nations is different story. What is important they are right now recog-
nizing their independence from the Philippines, whether the Philippines like and wanted it
or not!
If the Filipinos insist that Sultanate of Sulu is theirs, they shall come to choose to let Sulu
free and kill the people. As Tau Sug have been saying to the Philippine government to “free
us or kill us”, “give us death or give us freedom” and “please out now or please kill us now”.
...Zakat
tembaga. Haram hukumnya menerima uang yang bukan emas dan perak sebagai zakat atau
kharaj.
Apa Kesimpulannya?
Dari berbagai fatwa hukum para imam madhhab di atas sangat jelas bahwa zakat harta dan
perniagaan tidak dapat dibayarkan kecuali hanya dengan Dinar Emas atau Dirham Perak.
Bagaimana Cara Menghitung dan Membayarkan Zakat dalam Dinar-Dirham?
Bila Anda memiliki harta uang kertas atau turunannya (deposito, saham, cek, dsb), harus
Anda takar nisabnya dengan Dinar atau Dirham. Harta yang dihitung hanyalah yang telah
memenuhi haul-nya, yakni tersimpan selama setahun. Nisab zakat mal adalah 20 dinar emas
atau 200 dirham perak. Zakatnya adalah 2.5%-nya.
Kewajiban zakat 2.5% dari total harta Anda yang telah tersimpan selama setahun terse-
but kemudian ditukarkan dengan salah satu mata uang syar’i ini, Dinar Emas atau Dirham
Perak. Dengan Dinar Emas atau Dirham Perak inilah baru Anda dapat membayarkan zakat.

Lost & Found
Rasul Alam
Simple and meaningful but reasonable phrase, often controversial to all universities and
schools and even in job places. Some will say “ it’s normal”or “gossips”. If things were lost,
we search and if we found, return to the right owner. Search and Return words were combi-
nation in our daily needs. Critics words like “what you know and to whom you know” and
“you saw but you ignore it” these are good combination phrases. Anybody might surprise to
read these words because its normal or gossip but they heard it before , ignored and forgot.
Wide readers can finish five sets or more pocketbooks in a day, do they understand or have
they measure their ability to read?It’s amazing also” like traditional politician or “TRAPO”
(mean RUG in English), their term of office had expired but join politics even in the man-
ner of side benches because LOST of confidence among young generation in politics and
unsolved cases which they previously involved? Just remember the young is our hope in the
future. Anyway you have your own sovereignty in your country!
LOST United Kingdom of Sulu is not a gossip but history, somebody engineered its genuine
existence specifically its peoples deprivation,territorial grabbing, disabling its government ,
misinterpret its SOVEREIGNTY and not granting its INDEPENDENCE.
Some of our TAU SUG brothers and sisters TAU SUG who LOST from the sights of its
love ones for three to six months detain of the charged for SELF -DETERMINATION that
they were TAU SUG.Are they really a lawbreaker citizens? or somewhat on your mind!
“Stateless person”means a person who is not a national by any State under the operation of
its law and thereby Protected by International Laws that adopted on 28 September 1954 by
a Conference of Plenipotentiaries convened by Social Council Resolution 526A(XVII) of
April 1954 which enter into force 6 June 1960. “What do you know and from whom do you
know about the TAU SUG” ?
You have been ignorance throughout your life! “PILAK” was the past and future currency
of our country, its means that when you pay monthly to us in different currency rather than
“PILAK”, you push us to LOST our identity of being a “TAU SUG”.Some said “we will
respect “TAU SUG” if their flag will wave in United Nation ground”,my dear brother you
know that but you just ignoring and not accepting it. TAU SUG CITIZENS are colonial
people and SULTANATE of SULU is a colonial country and we do for a living in normal
and simple way and we are human being also.
FOUNDING the Truth of history, Sultanate of Sulu, Darul Islam, are ready for Declaration
of Independence on 17th November 2010. According to U.N. General Assembly the second
International Decade for the Eradication of Colonialism(2001 - 2010).Wake up my dear
fellow countrymen, it’s our opportunity to withstand our Independence in a PEACEFUL

Pesanan ini penulis khususkan kepada Paduka Wazir UTC (Raja Bendahara) Negeri Sabah,
Malaysia, para Paduka Daera (Paduka Bendahara), para Panglima UTC, Paduka UTC dan
rakyat Tausug di seluruh Sabah.
MEMATUHI KANUN DAN TAAT KEPADA PEMIMPIN
Sepanjang perjalanan penulis bersama rombongan pendaftar dari Kota Kinabalu ke Kunak,
iaitu setiap kali penulis dijemput untuk bercakap sepatah dua di hadapan warga Tausug, pen-
ulis senantiasa mengingatkan beberapa hal penting yang tidak penulis tulis dalam KANUN,
• Bahawa, mereka yang diberi jawatan untuk menjaga dan mentadbir warga Tausug
di Sabah bukanlah satu keistimewaan dan kesenangan tetapi adalah satu tanggungjawab be-
sar kerana memikul kalimah “La ilaha illallah muhammadurrasulullah”. Salah guna kuasa
akan menerima padahnya dihadapan Allah SWT di Padang Mahsyar dan pasti di dunia lagi
akan menerima hukumannya.
• Sebarang permainan politik kotor dan khianat kepada Bangsa, Negara dan Agama
samada dalam kepimpinan atau yang dipimpin akan diadili oleh rakyat dan Mahkamah
Syari’ah iaitu pengadilan Kesultanan Sulu Darul Islam tanpa mengira mereka Keluarga
Diraja atau Hamba Rakyat. Kalau bukan sekarang, dakwaan akan dikenakan setelah ke-
merdekaannya kelak.
• Pemimpin yang melakukan kesilapan dan tidak diingini oleh rakyat lagi
wajib”Maglupus Kawasa” (Melupuskan Kuasa) yakni turun dari jawatan untuk diganti pe-
mimpin yang lebih layak dan bertanggungjawab tanpa perlu menunggu diturunkan oleh
kuasa rakyat.
• Bahawa, Sabah atau North Borneo adalah masih dalam tangan PEMAJAK wajib

The First Publication of the Sulu Sultanate Darul Islam
The first ever conflict that involved Muslims on account of this issue was during the incipi-
ence of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) as the Messenger of Allah, when he and his supporters
had to engage their pursuing adversaries who were from their own city of Mecca, which
culminated in the Battle of Badr (Muhammad Fathi Bakkoush, The Great Battles of Islam).
This would, of course, start the series of battles that they had to fight during the early Is-
lamization process, which spilled over into later times as Islam made its inroads into Africa,
Asia and European continents.
The root of resistance in the domestic arena has been basically similar, which is the on-
slaught on Islam. This was intensely commenced by the Spaniards and later happily taken
over by the Americans. Some people, however, have come in with their preferred explana-
tions, mostly self-serving, and have created an entanglement of the causes, most of which
being used to muddle the issue. T.J.S. George tried to pry it loose in his Revolt in Mind-
anao, and came up with “assault on Islam” as still the basic provocation. Others in his list:
“an oppressed minority asserting against the majority”, “a result of economic and social
grievances”, “immoral politicians and their politics”, “foreign meddlings”, “communist
influence”, “CIA role”, and “government ineptitude”.
Except for communism, which is dogmatically diametric to Islam, all the other factors
could be rightfully considered as auxiliaries to the predominating religious fervor. Singling
them out and playing their respective role up would be like paying unnecessary attention
to the twigs, bushes and trees that make up the forest; they do not make any difference, for
from a distance the forest has a glaringly overwhelming presence.
Spain believed that Islam was a false religion, in that it was an embodiment of everything
hateful. Apparently this was carried out with all fierceness since a royal letter of instruc-
tions, dated 1565 and signed by King Philip himself, was sent to the colonial administration
in Manila, to wit: “We give you permission to make such Moros slaves and seize their prop-
erty. You are warned that you can make them slaves only if the said Moros are such by birth
and choice…But in no way or manner shall you enslave the Indios.” (George). Because
the year 1565 was only the arrival of Legazpi in Cebu, logically Philip had not had enough
bases for judgment as to the nature of the Moros. The bigotry therefore was generated from
the Spanish abomination of the Moors who had ruled them for about 800 years.
The Spanish campaign against the Moros was not carried only in the battlefield. In the
christianized areas where they had lorded it over and where their words were the law, they
primed the minds of the Indios that the Moros were the natural enemies of the Christians.
These were done during religious instruction, town rallies or assemblies; and through the
Moro-Moro, a theatrical presentation used to depict Spaniard-Moro encounters, with the
Moros ending as the slay-worthy villains. The result was a mass hysteria triggered even
by a mere mention of the word “moro”. All Christian natives also now had looked at the
Muslims with indescribable hatred. They even became the core of Spanish warriors against
these erstwhile brothers of theirs, and per dictation from their Spanish masters, they carried
out similar ferocity, relishing merciless massacres, and even chained and branded the Mus-
lims in captivity. Corollary to this, if the prejudiced Max Soliven (may he rest in peace) of
the Philippine Star were any smarter, he should not have written this line in his column of
April 12, 2000: “Remember the attitude of the Moro fundamentalists who’ve been taught
to hate Christians from infancy—and that slaying of Christian infidel is the fastest passport
to paradise.” This superannuated guy had apparently confused the cause and the effect in
the issue.

Muslim Unrest in the Philippines
Dr. Benjamin Bangahan
How Do You Solve That Problem When the Cause Is Not Recognized?
Unless an adjustment in the posture of the peace protagonists into a more realistic one is initi-
ated, any effort toward an appeasement of the Muslim unrest in the Philippines will just stay
futile, for, there is no exact meeting of the minds of the government and the Muslims—that
is, the majority and the minority—as to what is precisely the problem that needs solving. As
expected, the desire to solve the problem and achieve peace, will remain just that—a desire.
There is never a problem solved even by argument geniuses unless there is a prior identifica-
tion of THE problem. That is, of course, a basic mathematical rule of thumb that participants
giggly enjoy violating as well as gaining advantages from. They appear as all-agog and as
concerned peace advocates and report the “points of achievements” as a good media mile-
age. But at the recesses of their minds, this is nothing but a perfectly vicious but enjoyable
little circle. They cannot wait to do it again and ‘exhaust” all their energies in, in the “pursuit
of peace”.
And the Muslims always remain the butts of this.
What borders on asininity is that the government panel, whoever the chosen members are
and whichever Muslim group it is dealing with, is bent on arriving at a solution from that
standpoint, which is a simple euphemism for their passion to ram their solution down our
throats. But while some Muslim panels have been “touched” by the government in its at-
tempt to ensure that its solution get across—which makes it more ludicrous—many Muslims
are now wary about the government hunky-punky.
By “exact meeting of the minds” is meant the recognition of the very problem that leads to
the unrest and then the concoction of an apropos solution, in that everyone must ready his
face to get splattered with mud in the process in order for him to stare at the problem face
to face.
BACKGROUND
The Muslims have always had their steam fueled by an unbreakable Islamic dogma and a
keenly claimed right version of history. Islamic teachings dictate that Muslims in an adver-
sarial situation with a non-Muslim majority that happens to orchestrate a form of religious
suppression (hence, in a state of dar al harb) are enjoined to fight against the oppressors. For
this purpose, a total of 33 Qur’anic verses can be collated and all together made as bases for
arriving at the why, when, how, who and even the prize of it; they are scattered as follows:
a total of 7 verses in Surah II; 4 verses in Surah IV; 2 verses in S. VIII; 9 verses in S. IX;
3 verses in S. XXII; 5 verses in S. XLII; 2 verses in S. XLVII; and 1 verse in S. XLVIII.
Therefore, in the Philippines non-Muslims should not wonder why Muslims have always
resisted against all invaders, right since Magellan alighted in these islands up until now. And
elsewhere in the Islamic world where a semblance of suppression is done, similar Muslim
reactions are observed, with some even done so extensively that the West calls them “acts
of terrorism”.
Rightfully the confrontational status is to last till victory (when dar al harb is transformed to
dar al Islam), or a total defeat (when the Muslims get subjugated and have no choice but to
submit to the oppressors and accept conversion, which has never happened). - Gikap 12...

extent that, even the Christianized Indios who subsequently revolted, had hated the Span-
iards so much that in disposing three friars they had captured in Imus, one was doused with
petroleum, another was cut into pieces and the third one pierced through his body with a
bamboo split (George).
Hispanization was done side by side with the conversion of the natives to Catholicism. With
military force as the Spanish winning factor, a big portion of the northern people became
Christianized, becoming the so-called Indios. A clear sectarian line effectively dichotomized
the natives, with the unconverted and unconquered half pejoratively called Moros because of
their similarity in religious fervor with the once-Spanish-tormentors, the Moors, for whom
the Spaniards still had a built-in wrath.
The naming of the conquered portion of the islands Filipinas (from Felipe) or its anglicized
form Philippines, was passionately motivated by the basic drive to Christianize. Philip was
like an icon of Catholicism, and impressing his name on everything and everyone the Span-
iards had conquered amounted to a catholic trade marking. Incidentally, the spin-off term
Filipino to refer to the people was first applied to the full bloodied Spaniards born in the
Philippines (which would correspond to the Creoles). This later included the half-breeds, and
finally, the Indios. The parameter that would qualify one to be called Filipinos was obviously
the Catholic religion. The unchristianized people, as one can see, were never called Filipinos.
Going by the context, therefore, we do not qualify nor deserve to be called one, for we do
not belong. In fact, as claimed by Bauzon, the term Filipino, more than anything, formalized
the psychological, cultural and political division between the two peoples. It would therefore
follow that between Magellan and Lapu-Lapu, the former had better bases for claiming prox-
imity to the Filipinos; Lapu-Lapu never had any.
Perhaps the basis for the subsequent encompassing of the unchristianized natives by the
term Filipino was the illicit sale of the Philippines to the Americans by the Spaniards, but
which included even the unconquered area, which was not a vassalage of Spain. The sale, in
effect, illegally subsumed the latter. For US$20 million, the Americans gladly consummated
the transaction as embodied in the Treaty of Paris, never mind if the Moro portion was not
legally part of it. Were it not for military coerciveness, no amount of stretching the moral
and legal flexibility could make that anomalous sale binding because it involved “some com-
modities that were not part of the commerce”. Therefore, historically and religiously, and
morally and legally, the unchristianized areas and peoples were not Filipinized.
The new Whites had their own shrewd plan on how to subjugate the Muslims, whom they
compared to their Indians back home but were looked with more disdain. “The only good
Indian is a dead Indian” shifted to a new battlecry: “The only good Moro is a dead Moro”.
The Moros confronted the new white oppressors with similar determination as they did the
Spaniards, for to them these Americans were just new replacements in the same team, and
no new rules were set in the game. Meanwhile, the Americans started with their own brand
of inferno which the Moros fought hard against with whatever they could, producing unsung
Moro heroes and writing Moro history that have not been fully brought to light because of
the distortion the white people have effectively crafted.
WHY THE CONTINUED RESISTANCE
What moves a Muslim to pursue a prolonged and continuous resistance, by tradition, is
primarily the defense of his religion and his family honor and dignity (Martabbat), and this
would last for as long as necessary. As described earlier, this is a comprehensive defense that
is bolstered not just by values but also by Qur’anic dogma. - Gikap 18 ...

generations that propagated in Sulu. However, Islam became more understood and estab
lished when Karimul Makhdum arrived in Sulu in 1380 (Saleeby). The two Muslim teachers,
but more especially the Makhdum, have been considered Awliya’ or Sufists, who were also
called Ahlul Suluk or People of the Path (Al-Attas, The Mysticism of Hamza Fansuri) and
who included the subsequent Sufi teachers who arrived to teach, from which term Suluk or
Sulu sprang, which later transformed to Suk and Sug (Bangahan).
It has been claimed by Muslim chroniclers that Islam was welcomed with joy and relief
(George). Najeeb Saleeby even quoted a manuscript that showed that the people were very
impressed by the visitors’ supernatural ability. Islam then spread and made Sulu a major
trading partner of the maritime powers at that time. In fact when the first Sultan, Shariful
Hashim, set the Sultanate of Sulu in the middle of the 15th century, Sulu became an Islamic
power while at this time Manila and Cebu were still in a struggling stage.
Bauzon in his book, “Liberalism and the Quest for Islamic Identity in the Philippines”, ex-
plains that the facility with which the ancient people had embraced Islam was due to the
adaptation of the religion to their customs and traditions, which means that Islam did not
attempt to make drastic changes. The original social set-up, the baranggay, became the root
of the sultanate through confederation, and made them generate into an Ummah in the land,
which brought them pride to declare the area as dar al Islam. This engendered kinship and
sense of brotherhood with other Muslims in the world and made Islam an ideology. Sulu na-
tion evolved and had all the makings of sovereignty.
THE COMING OF THE SPANIARDS
There is no doubt that the passion for Catholicism was the primary drive behind the Spanish
colonization. We can trace this to Charles I and Ferdinand Magellan and later to Charles’ son
Philip II and Legazpi. When Charles became the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V in 1519,
he assumed that he was an instrument chosen by the Almighty to promote the supremacy of
the Catholic Church (George). So when Magellan set his sail after obtaining the patronage
of Charles, his mission was appropriately to check Muslim sea power in Africa and India.
In Cebu, he initiated the conversion of the local leaders and men into the Catholic faith.
Then he met Lapu-Lapu, who resented his cross and interferences and caused him his death.
(There are some claims to the big probability that Lapu-Lapu was Muslim, or at least Islam-
conscious).
Charles’ passion, however, was nothing in comparison to that of his son Philip, who gener-
ated rigidity and tyranny and was ruthless with non-Catholics, earning him the monicker
“Black Legend” among the protestant countries. In spite of his Catholic zealotry, he married
four times, according to T.J.S. George.
Legazpi, Philip’s explorer, recognized Manila as the target instead of Cebu when he arrived
in 1565, for the place would make an ideal command post. The Manila Muslim ruler, Rajah
Sulayman, would not submit, but nonetheless welcomed Legazpi and his men with dignity,
which had led into a friendship that was solemnly established through a blood compact.
This would prove to be one of the antecedents of treachery between Spaniards and Muslims,
for before even the blood used in the compact could dry up, Legazpi sprang to attack Rajah
Sulayman and conquered Manila, forcing the people into Catholicism. Ironically, treachery
as a dishonor has never been imputed to Legazpi or the Spaniards by those western writers;
always the Muslims were being unfairly called the traitors, even if theirs were just reactions
