CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
EXPLAINATION
From Abu Hurairah ra, he said: "There was someone who came to see
the Prophet Muhammad. and ask, "O Messenger of Allah, to whom
should I do good?" He replied, "To your mother!" The person asked
again, ‘Then who else? The Prophet answered, 'Your mother.' Then he
repeated his question, and the Prophet continued to answer, 'To your
mother!' He asked again, 'Who else then?' He replied, 'To your father!'
"(Bukhari: 5971, Muslim: 2548)
And indeed in Islam it is taught that Allah created his creatures in
pairs, as explained by al-Quran surah Fatir verse 11 :
“And God created you from the land of the semen, then He made you
pairs (male and female). And no woman conceived nor gave birth, but
with His knowledge. And it is not extended to the age of a person who
is long and does not reduce his age, but (has been determined) in the
Book (Lauh Mahfuzh). Surely this is easy for God.”
From some of the Islamic views above regarding gender equality,
we can know, that Islam supports gender equality. Even Islam since its
birth has provided protection and safeguarded the honor of women.
How beautiful Islam is as a religion, because every rule and order that
is available is always beneficial and based on the good of its people.
In the Vinaya Pitaka text, gender is divided into four namely men,
women, hemaphrodites (intersex) and homosexuals or kathoey. In
Buddhism, Kathoey is considered karma. They the kathoey consider the
reincarnation of humans who have committed major sins. Therefore, all
people according to Buddhism are more tolerant to Kathoey. Even a
kathoey according to Buddhism is permitted to become a monk to atone for
his sins. These rules make Buddhism seem tolerant of the ladyboy or
Kathoey.
Even though the Buddha's teachings set the requirements for kathoey,
some people and the social environment did not accept it right away, so
they only accepted kathoey. Kathoey in Thailand is not really free. They
are still trying to declare themselves as same-sex lovers.
In fact in the teachings of Islam, it is taught that there are two sexes,
namely women and men. and as explained above, also in fatir surah verse
11, Allah created people and their creatures in pairs. From this we can take
lessons, and we also do not have to follow the recognition of the country of
Thailand.
Even though in our own country there is or has been a transgender like
love and many more. as human beings we should also remind each other.
but if it is not touched in his heart. enough God is the one who turns the
hearts of his people.
CHAPTER III
CONCLUSION
Gender refers to the roles and responsibilities of men and women that are
created in our families, our societies and our cultures. The concept of gender also
includes the expectations held about the characteristics, aptitudes and likely
behaviours of both women and men (femininity and masculinity).
From some of the Islamic views above regarding gender equality, we can
know, that Islam supports gender equality. Even Islam since its birth has provided
protection and safeguarded the honor of women. How beautiful Islam is as a
religion, because every rule and order that is available is always beneficial and
based on the good of its people.
