For Moro people of the Sulu Sultanate?

According to press report carried out by the Ma-nila Bulletin dated June 9, 2010, the Philippines Depart-ment of Justice has ordered the arrest of of cers of theMoro National Liberation Front (MNLF) in Jolo, Sulu for allegedly planting improvised explosives that caused thekilling of two US servicemen and a Filipino soldier onSeptember 29, 2009.

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.

This was signed between Spain a nd United States of America that was ever known as Treaty of Paris. In accor-dance with the treaty, Spain surrendered to the United States of America after defeated from the mock war!

Sulu Sultanate had signed the international treaty with United States of America, known as Bates Treaty that wassigned in 22 August 1899. The treaty was abrogated in 2 March 1904 with illogical reasons.

It was claimed that the Sulu Sultan had failed to quell Tausug resistance and hindrance to the effective Americancolonial administration, where in fact these reasons were not part of the provisions of the treaty Sulu Sultanateindeed UNCONQUERED!

The citizens adhere to the provisions of the UN General Assembly Resolution, Universal Declaration of HumanRights. Article 15, (1) Everyone has the right to a nationality. (2) No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his national-ity nor denied the right to change his nationality.

Those of Sulu people that are having their Filipino citizenship are right now shifting into Tausug or Sulu citizenship.Tausug are not Filipinos and Filipinos are not Tausug. Filipino is an imagined nation whereas Tausug is a realnation that existed long before the birth of Filipino nation.

Tausug is the name applied geographically to the people of Sulu Archipelago, the territories of the Sulu SultanateDarul Islam of having different ethnicities. Every ethno-dialectical people here are called Tausug or Bangsa Sug.

The national language is Bahasa Sug or Sulu Language. There are many dialects in Sulu Archipelago. Tausug iscitizenship and Bangsa Sug is nationality as part of the Darul Islam (Dar Al-Islam).

So much for that, the United Tau Sug People, the Citizens of the Sulu Sultanate Darul Islam is inviting everyone towitness the historical momentous event that would be held at Buansa City, Jolo Island, Sulu Sultanate Darul Islam.

This would be the signi cant beginning of the journey for the international peace and security in the Sulu SultanateDarul Islam territories - land, sea and air beyond boundaries.

The Sulu citizens declare the Assertion of Independence of the Sulu Sultanate Darul Islam is to regain and executetheir long lost-stolen to exercise government of their own.

This greatest historical event will be the Sulu Citizens declaration of Assertion of Independence of the Sultanateof Sulu on 17 November 2010.

This event shall stick to the principle of international peace and security by Denouncing War and Renouncing Ter-rorism!

The incident happened a day af-ter the Armed Forces of the Phil-ippines shelled and bombed ad-

by taking positions at a nearbymosque before dawn prayer. Thealibi was, as usual, allegedly the

MANIFESTOIn the name of Allah, The Bene cent, The Merciful

We, the United Tausug Citizens (UTC) hereby declare the restoration of the de jure government andassertion 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 of cials 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 behonored, respected, and protected as embodied in the treaty known as the BATES TREATY of 1899entered 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 Stateswas thru treaties of friendship. The illegal incorporation of the Sultanate of Sulu to the newly createdRepublic of the Philippines was in gross violation of the 1787 United States Constitution, and blatantabused 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, theUnited 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 theCharter 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 andsuggestions 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 theStatehood of the Sultanate of Sulu in accordance with the principles of the United Nations.

With our full con dence and conviction, the resto ration of the sovereignty and indepe ndence of the Sul -tanate of Sulu will nally achieve genuine peace, prosperity, and political stability in Sulu archipelagoand its nearby territorial jurisdiction.

So help us God. Done on the 17th day of November 2009, at Freedom Hall Capitol, Patikul, Sulu.

mandates of the Tausug People).

EDITORIAL

THE ANSWER OF OPTIONS IS INDEPENDENCE?

United Tau Sug People, the citizens of the Sultanateof Sulu Darul Islam have always believed, it is onlyindependence that could solve the economic, social andcultural problems in Sulu Archipelago. But many oth-ers dont believe it so, especially the professionalsTau Sug abroad.

The Tau Sug in abroad said to be keeping their pro-fession by working abroad because they dont wantto waste the time, money and efforts they spent to gettheir degree under the Philippines to support the Suluindependence. Accordingly Sulu government can nev-er give them salary and it is impossible to get the Suluindependence. Thats what they believed.

Impossible or not, it doesnt matter. What matters isthe spirit of believing that independence in Sulu shallcome. It is not the people who will give victory. Godwill 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 freefrom 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 isa trading from mutual understanding not by the force of the enforcement of non-Islamic human-created policyfor unequal business interest and charges. The spirit of independence is by the way of non-haram monetaryand free trade market.

Sultanate of Sulu sovereignty and de jure sovereign na-tive people dont belong to the Philippines. So Philip-

pines have no rights to give independence of the Sul-tanate of Sulu and hold its sovereignty. The ingredientof independence is will of the people to freedom andself-determination under international law. It is basichuman rights granted from Allah.

Prof. Umar Ibrahim Vadillo once said, God will yougive you victory, Sulu is too small to free itself, but too

big to free the world. You can save Nusantara by usingShariah Currency, the Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham.-

...Dark - planning to install sophisticated missiles or military equipment in the area.The exact number of AFP casualties was not readily available but knowledgeable sourcesclaimed there was almost a shortage of plastic bags for the corpses, and helicopter sortieswere quite frequent in transporting the dead and wounded troopers from Jolo to ZamboangaCity.

By right the government should not have faulted the MNLF for the death of Americans andFilipino servicemen in that instance. They had breached the peace earlier and the people inthat area had the right to deter enemy forces from entering their place of abode. They had

been subjected to a heavy military operation earlier, and then a barrage of air and artillery bombardments, without any valid reason while the cease re is supposedly still holding after the signing of the Final Peace Accord (FPA) in 1996.

Event in 2004 In 2004, a composite group of Philippine Army-Marine and other units of the AFP staged adawn massacre of civilians in Ipil, Maimbung, Sulu that included three minors and a preg-nant woman. Although the incident was documented by the United Nations Commissionon Human Rights as an outright massacre of civilians, the military investigation quashedthe UNCHR report and declared the killings as justi ed. A number of American militaryadvisers were also seen aboard the boat that raided the seaside community after midnightalthough did not participate in the shooting. The pattern then seemed to be to exposed Ameri-

can servicemen to danger so that when they sustain casualties, they will make good in their participation to declare war against the Moro rebels. Fortunately, it did not happen as theAmericans seem to have another ulterior motive in establishing foothold in the Sultanate of Sulu. So far, there had been no attempt to declare war on the American contingent since they

just con ne themselves to their barrack. The problem with the AFP is that they dont seem to respect any Peace Agreement betweentheir government (GRP) and the MNLF. Impartial observers are of the view that the GRP has been plotting for the total involvementof the US Army in their ght against Moro freedom ghters. Unfortunately, the Americansrefused to be drawn into the Moro liberation war. It started with the beheading of G. Sobrero, an American serviceman on holiday in Min-danao who was reportedly snatched by the Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) from Basilan. Therewas no reason to behead Sobrero, but ASG sources say the AFPs Deep Penetrating Agents(DPA) that had in ltrated the ASG were the ones demanding for it, allegedly to create fear amongst relatives and solicitors of kidnapped victims. This was followed by the roadside bomb blast that killed another American serviceman inZamboanga City in 2002, and then a series of bombings throughout Mindanao that killedmore than 90 civilians and wounding hundreds of others. Unfortunately, the last bomb blast-ed the suspected bomb-maker in a hotel room in DavaoCity, crippling Terrence MichaelMeiring who was suspiciously airlifted out of Davao Specialists Hospital - Gikap 4 ....

even without the usual immigration and other normal clearances, through the facilities of theUS 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 withthe AFP/GRP.

The Sipadan Episode The plotters of the Sipadan hostage drama was also careful not to include Americans amongthe 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 simpleunassuming Maas(elder) of everyone. He was the only leader I know who can afford to travelwithout money in his pocket. But after an accidental journey which separated him from hisassistant who had the money, now he wont go out unless he has more than enough in hiscredit cards. But that was long ago. Now, he is a really transformed man, a leader who cannottake others opinion as opposed to his own. As a consequence, those that he did not purgefrom the MNLF leadership have deserted him too. Now the people around him are classi edas minnows, never been known or seen anytime before in the company of the MujahideenMoro. For that matter, he can hardly win any fair election apart from the one where he rstran for governor of ARMM. President FVR virtually rigged that election to make him win sothat he could surrender more of the Moro peoples 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 repudiatedalthough still holding a slight respect by the OIC for being signatory to several Agreementsand important documents. Otherwise, majority of the MNLF leaders and Moro masses havealready resolved to nd 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 of cers he had earlier purged from the MNLF The prime movers of the de-colonization of the Sultanate of Sulu are however thankfulof 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 of cers and members have jumped ship to join the Sulu Sultanates band -wagon. Therefore, it is only a matter of time that the proponents of the new movement willeventually declare the assertion of the Sultanates sovereignty and independence from theRepublic of the Philippines. As Misuari, together with a few aspiring sultans allied to him and the neo-MNLF personnelhave no part in the re-institution of the Sulu Sultanate, it is feared they may be tapped by theGRP 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 destroythe fabric of Moro society within the Sultanate of Sulu that he was supposed to lead, butwhich he had chosen to ditch, hook-line-sinker.

...Zakattembaga. Haram hukumnya menerima uang yang bukan emas dan perak sebagai zakat ataukharaj.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), harusAnda takar nisabnya dengan Dinar atau Dirham. Harta yang dihitung hanyalah yang telahmemenuhi haul-nya, yakni tersimpan selama setahun. Nisab zakat mal adalah 20 dinar emasatau 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 syari ini, Dinar Emas atau DirhamPerak. Dengan Dinar Emas atau Dirham Perak inilah baru Anda dapat membayarkan zakat. WAKALA INDUK NUSANTARA

....EDITORIAL

...it is only a matter of time that the proponents of the new movement will eventually de-clare the assertion of the (Sulu) Sultanates sovereignty and independence from the Republicof 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 namegiven after the disgraceful king of Spain Philip II who died from syphilis 400 years ago,until today Tausugs issue their own birth certi cates stating their citizenship not as of Philip -

pines but of the Sultanate of Sulu Darul Islam. An Economist from Kazakhstan, Mr. GhanyAoueskahnov commented.

Sultanate of Sulu is hoped to be one of the centers of the Islamic revival in Southeast Asiathrough 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 at 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 islandcountry of Southeast Asia of Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham.

17th November 2010 will be part of the written historical signi cant 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 itor not!

If the Filipinos insist that Sultanate of Sulu is theirs, they shall come to choose to let Sulufree and kill the people. As Tau Sug have been saying to the Philippine government to freeus or kill us, give us death or give us freedom and please out now or please kill us now.

PILAK: SULU CURRENCY IS PHYS-ICALLY COMING BACK! - Neldy Jolo -

Citizens of the Sulu Sultanate have been using theDinar and Dirham as their money. Sulu SultanateCurrency is called Pilak. Even today, Sulu peo-

ple still calling the money they are using as Pilak even it is Peso or Ringgit.

This is the living proof that Sulu people are still

directly aware of their existence as sovereign people of having their own country (nation andstate) and indirectly unaware as their country wasillegally annexed to Philippine Republic in 1946,until such time they became Filipino citizens byfallacy.

Gold Dinar is called Dublun weight of piece of Gold and Silver Dirham called Pilak. This waswhere the Sulu currency came about. This wasstarted when Sultanate of Sulu became part of theworlds Darul Islam (Dar Al-Islam).

The Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham were the cur-rency of the Darul Islam or the Muslim world

from its rst period of existence until the end of Ottoman Empire (Khali ya Usman) period in1924. Hence, Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham arethe unity symbol of humanity..The rst coins assigned to Muslim are Silver Dir -ham of the Sassarian ruler Yazdegerd III duringthe Caliphate of Usman around 75 Al-Hijra (695CE). It was known that Gold Dinar was rst issuedin the year 77 Al-Hijra (696-7 CE) by Khalifa AbdAl-Malik Ibni Marwan. The weight of Dinar is 1Mithqal (4.25g)..Asreesulu said in his blog, www.tausug-global.

blogspot.com that the possibility of the down of Russia Economy in 1400 was due to the GoldDinar used by Sultanate of Sulu and Sultanateof Mamluk to trade. Sultanate of Sulu who wasformally established in 1405 was during the exis-tence of the Sultanate of Mamluk in 12th centuryto 15th century.

The possibility of using Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham as currency could help boost the worldeconomy.

Prof. Umar Ibrahim Vadillo who rst talked and

introduced Gold Dinar and Silver Dir-ham to former Prime Minster of Ma-laysia Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, he had

been successfully brought the idea tothe implementation of Gold Dinar andSilver Dirham in the Malaysia State of Kelantan as part of the state currencyand economy.

Prof. Umar Ibrahim Vadillo who rsttalked and introduced Gold Dinar andSilver Dirham to former Prime Minster of Malaysia Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, hehad been successfully brought the ideato the implementation of Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham in the Malaysia Stateof Kelantan as part of the state currencyand economy.

Prof. Vadillo, Al-Andalus is an expertand pioneer of modern Gold Dinar andSilver Dirham that said paper bill isHaram that is Riba. He is the Chair-man of E-Dinar and President of theWorld Islamic Trade Organisation and

the Islamic Mint.Prof.Vadillo reminded Sulu people notto divide as he said Allah will giveyour victory, do not divide. Sulu is toosmall to free itself but too big to freethe world.

Asreesulu hoped as what he wrote in his blog, www.tausug-global.blogspot.comin Bahasa Malaysia as translated:

INSYA ALLAH!! People of Sulu will be united;INSYA ALLAH!! People of Sulu will

forget the disputes;INSYA ALLAH!! People of Sulu willleave the weapons of destructions;INSYA ALLAH!! People of Sulu willleave grudges;INSYA ALLAH!! People of Sulu willleave gambling and drugs;INSYA ALLAH!! People of Sulu will

be successful to regain their dignity;INSYAALLAH!!People of Sulu will

be successful to voice their INDEPEN-DENCE without ghting.

...Pesanan Memantau setiap rumah dibawah jagaan -nya. Sekiranya ada perjudian atau jenayah dan

perlakuan yang mencurigakan dalam kawasannya perlu bertindak pantas melaporkannya kepada Pan-glima dan panglima akan melaporkannya kepadaPolis Diraja Malaysia.

Menjaga kebajikan ahli keluarga KAW -MAN, dengan senantiasa memeriksa kalau-kalauada orang tua (terbiar) yang ditinggalkan anaknya,ada keluarga yang tidak ada makanan (mungkin

belum dapat kerja), ada kematian, ada perkahwi-nan, jambatan roboh, atau ada keluarga yang sua-minya ditangkap polis. Maka semua pihak tersebut

perlulah dibantu. Untuk dapatkan bantuan, Paduka UTC

perlu melaporkannya kepada Panglima UTC yangmenjaga mukim. Panglima akan buat lawatan

pengesahan ketempat yang dimaksudkan sebelumadakan mesyuarat. Hasil Mesyuarat akan dihantar kepada Paduka Daera untuk tindakan susulan.

Sekiranya ada ahli KAWMAN PadukaUTC yang ditangkap Polis, perlulah segerah mel-aporkannya kepada Panglima dan Panglima perluke Balai Polis untuk dapatkan penjelasan penang-kapan. Sekiranya tidak dapat dikeluarkan makaPanglima perlu membuat laporan kepada PadukaDaera. Paduka Daera akan memfailkan dan mem-

buat arahan untuk memberi peruntukan bantuan ke-cemasan kepada keluarga mangsa tangkapan agar makan minum mereka terjaga agar tidak kebulur selama suaminya belum dibebaskan dari Pusat Tah-anan Sementara (Rumah Merah). Bahawa, setiap laporan yang ditanggapisebagai PENGANIAYAAN kepada Warga Tausug,sekiranya Kerajaan Malaysia tidak bertindak un-tuk membantu, perlulah Paduka Daera menghantar

fail kepada Council of Regents di Sulu agar dapatditeliti oleh Peguam Negara Sulu Darul Islam. Setiap Paduka Daera senantiasa membuatlawatan ke setiap mukim Panglima UTC denganmengingatkan mereka agar sentiasa bersabar agar

jangan bertindak subersif atau membahayakan kes-elamatan Negara.

Bahawa setiap Paduka Daera senantiasamerapatkan hubungan dengan pemerintah Sabah(Kerajaan Malaysia) agar setiap gerak kerja dantindakan sentiasa dalam landasan undang-undang.

Penjelasan KERAKYATAN TAUSUG

Peringatan terakhir penulis ialah, setiapwarga Tausug yang memegang SuratKelahiran UTC dan ID Hijau WAJIBmembuang perkataan Saya berasaldari Pilipin atauSaya di lahirkan diPilipin sekiranya ditanya oleh pihak

berkuasa. KeranaRakyat Pilipin ti-

ada hak tinggal atau masuk ke Sabahyang ditadbir Kerajaan Malaysia tanpaPassport Philippines dan juga tidak

berhak memegang KERAKYATANKESULTANAN SULU DARUL IS-LAM selagi jiwa dan raganya masihkasih dan sayang dengan FILIPINA.

Filipino bermaksud Hamba RakyatKing Philipp II di Spanyol yang be-ragama Kristian. Dalam sejarah Fili-

pina, yang dimaksudkan Filipino ialahOrang yang dilahirkan di Spanyolkemudian berhijrah ke Luzon-Visayadan Anak-anak yang telah dilahirkandi Luzon-Visaya dari ibu bapa yang be-rasal dari Spanyol itulah yang dimak-sudkan sebagai FILIPINO. FerdinandMarcos telah menyedari hal ini dandilaporkan telah berusaha mengubahnama Filipina kepada MAHARLIKAtetapi gagal.

Sebab itu kaum Visaya pun tahu akanhal ini. Mereka mula membuang namaFilipino digantikan kepada Tausug.Kerana jelas dalam sejarah asal-usulkaum Luzon-Visaya (tidak termasuk warga Spanyol era kolonialis) merekasemua adalah TAUSUG. Sehingga hariini bahasa kaum Visaya (Luzon, Cebu,Waray-waray, Hiligaynun dll) adalah

bahasa SULUG @ SUG yang ditutur oleh kaum Taguimaha ketika dulu.Buktinya kaum Visaya sekiranya men-ganut Islam mereka digelar oleh TAU-SUG sebagai Balik-Islam bermaksudkembali kepada Islam, kerana nenek moyang Kaum Visaya adalah Tausugyang beragama Islam.

Lost & FoundRasul Alam

Simple and meaningful but reasonable phrase, often controversial to all universities andschools and even in job places. Some will say its normalor 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 andyou saw but you ignore it these are good combination phrases. Anybody might surprise toread these words because its normal or gossip but they heard it before , ignored and forgot.Wide readers can nish ve sets or more pocketbooks in a day, do they understand or have

they measure their ability to read?Its amazing also like traditional politician or TRAPO(mean RUG in English), their term of of ce had expired but join politics even in the man -ner of side benches because LOST of con dence among young generation in politics andunsolved cases which they previously involved? Just remember the young is our hope in thefuture. Anyway you have your own sovereignty in your country!

LOST United Kingdom of Sulu is not a gossip but history, somebody engineered its genuineexistence speci cally 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 itslove ones for three to six months detain of the charged for SELF -DETERMINATION thatthey were TAU SUG.Are they really a lawbreaker citizens? or somewhat on your mind!Stateless personmeans 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 youknow about the TAU SUG ?

You have been ignorance throughout your life! PILAK was the past and future currencyof our country, its means that when you pay monthly to us in different currency rather thanPILAK, you push us to LOST our identity of being a TAU SUG.Some said we willrespect TAU SUG if their ag will wave in United Nation ground,my dear brother youknow 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 normaland simple way and we are human being also.

FOUNDING the Truth of history, Sultanate of Sulu, Darul Islam, are ready for Declarationof Independence on 17th November 2010. According to U.N. General Assembly the secondInternational Decade for the Eradication of Colonialism(2001 - 2010).Wake up my dear

fellow countrymen, its our opportunity to withstand our Independence in a PEACEFULmanner and dont judge the book by its own cover. HASTA LA VISTA. - http://realtausug.blogspot.com

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 stayfutile, for, there is no exact meeting of the minds of the government and the Muslimsthatis, the majority and the minorityas to what is precisely the problem that needs solving. Asexpected, the desire to solve the problem and achieve peace, will remain just thata desire.There is never a problem solved even by argument geniuses unless there is a prior identi ca -tion of THE problem. That is, of course, a basic mathematical rule of thumb that participantsgiggly enjoy violating as well as gaining advantages from. They appear as all-agog and asconcerned 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 enjoyablelittle circle. They cannot wait to do it again and exhaust all their energies in, in the pursuitof peace.

And the Muslims always remain the butts of this.

What borders on asininity is that the government panel, whoever the chosen members areand whichever Muslim group it is dealing with, is bent on arriving at a solution from thatstandpoint, 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 acrosswhich makes it more ludicrousmany 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 tothe unrest and then the concoction of an apropos solution, in that everyone must ready hisface to get splattered with mud in the process in order for him to stare at the problem faceto face.

BACKGROUND

The Muslims have always had their steam fueled by an unbreakable Islamic dogma and akeenly 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 religioussuppression (hence, in a state of dar al harb) are enjoined to ght against the oppressors. For this purpose, a total of 33 Quranic 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 alwaysresisted against all invaders, right since Magellan alighted in these islands up until now. Andelsewhere in the Islamic world where a semblance of suppression is done, similar Muslimreactions are observed, with some even done so extensively that the West calls them actsof terrorism.

Rightfully the confrontational status is to last till victory (when dar al harb is transformed todar al Islam), or a total defeat (when the Muslims get subjugated and have no choice but tosubmit to the oppressors and accept conversion, which has never happened). - Gikap 12...

The rst ever con ict 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 supportershad to engage their pursuing adversaries who were from their own city of Mecca, whichculminated 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 ght 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 socialgrievances, immoral politicians and their politics, foreign meddlings, communistin uence, CIA role, and government ineptitude.

Except for communism, which is dogmatically diametric to Islam, all the other factorscould be rightfully considered as auxiliaries to the predominating religious fervor. Singlingthem out and playing their respective role up would be like paying unnecessary attentionto 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 everythinghateful. Apparently this was carried out with all erceness since a royal letter of instruc -tions, dated 1565 and signed by King Philip himself, was sent to the colonial administrationin 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 birthand choiceBut in no way or manner shall you enslave the Indios. (George). Becausethe 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 fromthe 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 battle eld. In thechristianized 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 theMoro-Moro, a theatrical presentation used to depict Spaniard-Moro encounters, with theMoros 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 theMuslims with indescribable hatred. They even became the core of Spanish warriors againstthese erstwhile brothers of theirs, and per dictation from their Spanish masters, they carriedout 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 whove been taughtto hate Christians from infancyand that slaying of Christian in del is the fastest passportto paradise. This superannuated guy had apparently confused the cause and the effect inthe issue. (To be continued)

In between, a state of war or, at least, non-recog-nition, exists.

Defense of Islam as used here goes much beyondthe realm of Islam as a religion that serves as asource of the knowledge of God (Maarifa). Is-lam is a way of life, hence, defense encompassesthe community, family, home and land, as well astraditional, political and cultural values alreadyso instilled in the Muslims hearts and minds evenif they might have been originally pre-Islamic.

RELIGIOUS SUPPRESSION ?

The governments (or the majoritys) posture hasalways been as unbending and rmly established

because of the belief that the constitution should be adhered to (in spite of its being originallyChristian-in uenced, not to mention dictated).Then a mindset that has remained noncompli-ant because of Hispanic zealotry and an adoptedvalue that denies a recti cation of historical er -ror both give a strong support to the stiff claimthat dismemberment of the country should never

be allowed. Apparently this is based on the belief

that this country has been legally and historicallysolid right from the start, which is precisely notright, as what the Muslims have been trying to

put across.

The historical basis is actually not dif cult todiscern, but the government people, represent-ing the interest of the majority, have their mindsin uenced by the Spanish dictum that grew out of

bigotry, and which in itself was rooted upon theSpanish hostility towards the Moors.

The psyche that maintains the attitude of eachsidewhich recognizes the other as the enemy guarantees a sure op of any solution born out

of pretexts, and whose purpose is only to render a rst-aid treatment of a chronic sore. For, whilethe Muslims continuum of resistance has beenkept alive by the obligatory antagonism to anyreligious suppression, the government side allalong has refused to admit that the animosity has

been engendered by the difference in religion,or more precisely, by the emotions that go alongwith it. Why the government adopted such atti-tude regarding this issue is, at the most, ambigu-ous. Some have conjectured that it avoids beingaccused of religious intolerance, permitting it to

hide its head ala-ostrich from the eagleeyes of the OIC, hence assuring itself ample oil supplies from the oil-richMuslim countries, a shrewdness the OICunfortunately seems not to mind at all.It is quite obvious that the attitude of eachside does not t quite well into the other for the peace machinery to purr well. Theinsistence of the so-called peace wizardsto keep on adopting similar stance onlytranslates to making nincompoops out of us, and will be for a very long time with-out the necessary change.

However, people with a panoramic view(especially history writers) readily rec-ognize religion as the prime mover of

both sides in the con ict. There are Pe -ter Gordon Gowing, T.J.S. George, Lila

Noble and Kenneth Bauzon, who canguide us in recalling our historical pastand making this outlook sink into our thoughts.

PRE-SPANISH ERA: The IslamizationProcess

The pre-Spanish people of these islandshad themselves socially organized intosmall baranggay communities under theleadership of a village elder, or a datu.The society was kinship-based and hi-erarchical, and had broad common cul-tural traits. This being observed to bethe general pattern in all settlements, itis fair to conclude that the communitieshad something common to hold onto interms of needs for some tactical alli-ance. Of course there were baranggay-to-baranggay variations in terms of legalcodes, literary and artistic traditions andtrading conventions (T.J.S. George). Thegeneral set-up would prove to be com-

patible with Islamic religious patterns(Bauzon). But even before the coming of Islam, the people were known to have aconcept of the Supreme Creator.

Islam was introduced to Sulu initially byTuwan Mashaika before the 13th cen-tury. His marriage to Idda Indira Suga,Raja Sipads daughter (Saleeby), startedthe strings of Muslim - Gikap 13

Understanding Sulu Sultanate: A culture of peace Part III Datu Albi A. Julkarnain

SAYYID ABU BAKR of Hadramaut, Yemen, Arabia:

Based from the ancient Khutbah [Sermon delivered at Salat ul-Jamaah or congrega-tional prayer], Sayyid Abu Bakr was described as a valiant and handsome Prince, intelligent,wise, learned in Figh [Islamic jurisprudence], master of his age and time, and kindled lightof Allah [God]. He was a direct descendant of Sayyidina Hussein, the grandson of Prophet

Muhammad, s.a.w.. Sayyid Abu Bakr was a native of the city of Tarim, Hadramaut, Yemen,Southern Arabia. He was left behind in his homeland when his father, Sayyid Ali ZainalAbirin emigrated earlier to Johore, Malay Peninsula.

In a related historical record, Sulu genealogy narrates that Sayyid Ali Zainal Abirinwas able to convert many natives of Johore to Islam faith. He got married to Princess JusueAsiqin, the daughter of Sultan Thul-Karmayin of Johore whom he begot another son namedSayyid [Sharief] Muhammad Kabungsuan, the founder of the Islamic state of MaguindanaoSultanate.

Sayyid Abu Bakr was a well known Ahlul Bait scholar, coming from the schoolof Su sm [teaching of Islamic Mysticism]. Before he came to Lupah Sug [Sulu mainland],Sayyid Abu Bakr passed at Malacca and Johore where he visited his family thereat before

proceeding to Indonesia, Brunei, and nally made his way to Bwansa village, Lupah Sug.According to Sulu Tarsila [genealogical narrations], Sayyid Abu Bakr arrived at the sea-shore of Bwansa Ummah or village just after the sundown, and the rst thing he did wasto perform the Magrib prayer to the amazement of the on-lookers. His arrival at Bwansavillage was estimated at about the last quarter of 13th century. Rajah Baginda, the ruler of Bwansa village welcomed the arrival of Sayyid Abu Bakr to their place and invited him tostay in his palace.

The shore of Jolo town, near to BuansaWhile staying at Bwansa village, Sayyid Abu Bakr spent his time preaching and

spreading Islam to the natives of the kinder land of Lupah Sug who have not yet embracedthe faith. He also taught others how to teach Islam religion, and built more houses, locallycalled Langgal for worship in different places at Lupah Sug. He introduced a systematicmethod in the teaching on how to write and read the Al-Quran, and Hadith [the sayingof the Prophet]. Due to his expertise in Fiqh [Islamic jurisprudence], Rajah Baginda ap-

pointed him member of his Royal Court.

Sayyid Abu Bakr soon married the charming daughter of Rajah Baginda namedDayang-Dayang [Princess] Paramisuli. Out of their wedlock, they begot three (3) chil-dren, namely: Alauddin, Putri Sarip, and Kamaluddin. Sayyid Abu Bakr handed down themost valuable cultural heritage of the Muslim Ummah in Sulu, and what the present genera-tion of Tau-sugs described it as Bin Sin Kamaasan.

Due to old age, Rajah Baginda resolved to step down ruling the government affairs of Bwansa village, and entrusted it to his Son-In-Law, Sayyid Abu Bakr. Through his wisdom,Sayyid Abu Bakr envisioned the leadership in Lupah Sug on the consciousness of Godsvicegerent. To carry out his vision, he introduced the government of Saudi Arabia as themodel of the structure of government of Lupah Sug. [To be continued.]

generations that propagated in Sulu. However, Islam became more understood and established when Karimul Makhdum arrived in Sulu in 1380 (Saleeby). The two Muslim teachers,

but more especially the Makhdum, have been considered Awliya or Su sts, who were alsocalled Ahlul Suluk or People of the Path (Al-Attas, The Mysticism of Hamza Fansuri) andwho included the subsequent Su 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 veryimpressed 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 rst Sultan, SharifulHashim, 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 theadaptation of the religion to their customs and traditions, which means that Islam did notattempt to make drastic changes. The original social set-up, the baranggay, became the rootof 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 andsense 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 Spanishcolonization. We can trace this to Charles I and Ferdinand Magellan and later to Charles sonPhilip 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 patronageof 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 marriedfour times, according to T.J.S. George.

Legazpi, Philips explorer, recognized Manila as the target instead of Cebu when he arrivedin 1565, for the place would make an ideal command post. The Manila Muslim ruler, RajahSulayman, 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 RajahSulayman and conquered Manila, forcing the people into Catholicism. Ironically, treacheryas 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 reactionsin a tooth-for-a-tooth confrontations. Yet, from these events, and generally during the Span-ish occupation, the Spaniards were primarily the merciless ones to the - Gikap 16 ...

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. Withmilitary force as the Spanish winning factor, a big portion of the northern people becameChristianized, becoming the so-called Indios. A clear sectarian line effectively dichotomizedthe 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 whomthe Spaniards still had a built-in wrath.

The naming of the conquered portion of the islands Filipinas (from Felipe) or its anglicizedform Philippines, was passionately motivated by the basic drive to Christianize. Philip waslike 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 termFilipino to refer to the people was rst applied to the full bloodied Spaniards born in thePhilippines (which would correspond to the Creoles). This later included the half-breeds, and

nally, the Indios. The parameter that would qualify one to be called Filipinos was obviouslythe 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 donot belong. In fact, as claimed by Bauzon, the term Filipino, more than anything, formalizedthe psychological, cultural and political division between the two peoples. It would thereforefollow 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 theterm Filipino was the illicit sale of the Philippines to the Americans by the Spaniards, butwhich included even the unconquered area, which was not a vassalage of Spain. The sale, ineffect, illegally subsumed the latter. For US$20 million, the Americans gladly consummatedthe transaction as embodied in the Treaty of Paris, never mind if the Moro portion was notlegally part of it. Were it not for military coerciveness, no amount of stretching the moraland legal exibility could make that anomalous sale binding because it involved some com -modities that were not part of the commerce. Therefore, historically and religiously, andmorally 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 theycompared to their Indians back home but were looked with more disdain. The only goodIndian 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, andno new rules were set in the game. Meanwhile, the Americans started with their own brandof inferno which the Moros fought hard against with whatever they could, producing unsungMoro 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 thiswould last for as long as necessary. As described earlier, this is a comprehensive defense thatis bolstered not just by values but also by Quranic dogma. - Gikap 18 ...
