The history of the establishment of Aisyiyah Muhammadiyah
The history of the establishment of Aisyiyah Muhammadiyah
THE ROOTS OF Aisyiyah's establishment cannot be separated from historical roots. The spirit of the founding of Muhammadiyah has inspired the establishment of almost all autonomous organizations in Muhammadiyah, including Aisytyah. Since establishing Muhammadiyah, Kiai Dahlan has paid great attention to the development of women. Potential girls are fostered and educated to become leaders, and are prepared to become administrators in women's organizations within Muhammadiyah. Among those educated by Kiai Dahlan were Siti Bariyah, Siti Dawimah, Siti Dalalah, Siti-Busyro (his own daughter), Siti Dawingah, and Siti Badilah Zuber.
The girls (even though they are only around 15 years old) have been invited to think about social issues. Before Aisyiyah was concretely formed, the nature of the women's coaching movement was just a group of girls who liked to gather, then were given guidance by KHA Dahlan and Nyai Ahmad Dahlan with religious teachings. This group of children is not yet an organization, but a group of children who are given recitations. Kiai Dahlan and his wife (Nyai Dahlan) also conducted education and guidance for women who were old. Islamic religious teachings do not allow neglect of women. Given the important role of women who must get a proper place, Kyai Dahlan with KHA. Dahlan founded a women's study group whose members consisted of girls and old women. In its development, the women's study group was named Sapa Tresna.
Sapa Tresna is not yet an organization, only a recitation movement. Therefore, to provide a concrete name for an association, KH Mokhtar held a meeting with KHA. Dahlan who was also attended by H. Fakhrudin and Ki Bagus Hadikusumo and other Muhammadiyah officials at Nyai Ahmad Dahlan's house. Initially , the name Fatimah was proposed for the Muhammadiyah women's association, but the meeting did not accept that name.
Haji Fakhrudin then suggested the name Aisyiyah which was later accepted by the meeting. The name Aisyiyah is seen as more appropriate for this women's movement because it is based on the consideration that the women's struggle that will be rolled out is expected to imitate the struggle of Aisyah, the wife of the Prophet Muhammad, who always helped the Prophet in preaching. Aisyiyah's inauguration was held at the same time as the commemoration of the Isra' Mi'raj of the Prophet Muhammad on 27 Rajab 1335 H, coinciding with 19 May 1917 M. The Isra' Mi'raj commemoration was a commemoration held by Muhammadiyah for the first time. Furthermore, KH Mukhtar provided administrative and organizational guidance, while for the guidance of his religious soul he was directly guided by KHA. Dahlan.
Kiyai Dahlan's message after the Aisyiyah management was officially formed was as follows:
1. With sincerity, fulfilling her duties as a Muslim woman in accordance with her talents and conversations, not wanting flattery and not taking a step back because of being criticized.
2. Full of conviction, that charity must be knowledgeable.
3. Do not make excuses that are not considered valid by the Lord God just to avoid a given task.
4. Determined to defend the sanctity of Islam. 5. Maintaining brotherhood and unity of co-workers and fighters In 1919, two years after its establishment, Aisyiyah started early education for children under the name Frobel, which was the first Kindergarten founded by
Indonesian nation. Furthermore, this kindergarten has the same name as Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal Kindergarten, which currently has 5,865 kindergartens throughout Indonesia.
The movement to eradicate ignorance which became one of the pillars of Aisyiyah's struggle was proclaimed by carrying out the eradication of illiteracy for the first time, both Arabic and Latin literacy in 1923. In this activity the participants consisting of girls and housewives studied together with the aim of increasing knowledge and increasing women's participation in the public world. In addition, in 1926, Aisyiyah began publishing an organizational magazine called Suara Aisyiyah, which was originally established using the Javanese language. Through this monthly magazine, Aisyiyah, among other things, communicates all of its programs and activities including the internal consolidation of the organization.
In terms of the national movement, Aisyiyah was also one of the organizations that took part in initiating and giving birth to the formation of a women's organization in 1928. In this regard, Aisyiyah along with other women's organizations rose up to fight to liberate the Indonesian people from the shackles of colonialism and ignorance. This federation body was named the Indonesian Women's Congress which is now KOWANI (Indonesian Women's Congress). Through this federation various efforts and forms of national struggle can be carried out in an integrated manner.
Aisyiyah is growing rapidly and finding its form as a modern women's organization. Aisyiyah has developed various programs for coaching and educating women. Among Aisyiyah's activities are female students who are tasked with fostering and developing girls outside of school as Aisyiyah cadres. At the 20th Muhammadiyah Congress in 1931, Female Praja Students were changed to Nasyi'atul Aisyiyah (NA). Apart from that, Aisyiyah also established Madrasa Affairs in charge of managing girls' special schools/madrasas, Tabligh Affairs which takes care of religious broadcasting through recitation, courses and dormitories, and Wal'asri Affairs which seeks scholarships for underprivileged students. In addition, Aisyiyah in 1935 also established the Adz-Dzakirat Affairs which was tasked with seeking funds to build the
Aisyiyah's further development in 1939 experienced a very rapid point of progress. Aisyiyah added the Assistance Affairs (PKU) tasked with helping the common misery. Because more and more girls' schools had been established, the Teaching Affairs was established in Aisyiyah. Apart from that, Aisyiyah also established a Family Consultation Bureau. Thus, Aisyiyah became an Islamic women's movement that broke the ice of feudalism and gender inequality in society at that time, and at the same time advocated women's empowerment.
