Pemikiran Sisters in Islam dan Hak Asasi Manusia (Sisters in Islam’s Thought and Human Rights)
Abstract
Sisters in Islam (SIS) adalah satu di antara organisasi feminisme Islam di Malaysia yang memperjuangkan emansipasi wanita. Ia telah dibentuk dalam tahun 1988 dan didaftarkan secara rasmi sebagai sebuah Badan Bukan Kerajaan (Non Governmental Organisation; NGO) pada tahun 1993 di bawah nama SIS Forum (Malaysia) Berhad. Sungguhpun kemunculan SIS boleh dianggap baharu berbanding pertubuhan NGO wanita yang hadir lebih dahulu sebelumnya seperti National Council of Women’s Organizations (NCWO), namun SIS sejak awal kemunculannya lagi telah berjaya menjadi sebuah gerakan feminisme yang paling popular dan terkehadapan di Malaysia. Kajian mengenai perjuangan menegakkan hak-hak asasi manusia berkisar kepada persoalan sejauhmana kefahaman dan komitmen SIS terhadap perjuangan hak-hak manusia ini dalam kerangka perbahasan Islamnya. SIS telah mendakwa sebagai gerakan yang mengkaji, mempromosi dan memperjuangkan hak-hak asasi manusia menurut perspektif Islam. Kajian dilakukan secara kualitatif dan mengguna pakai semua data-data dokumentasi yang diperoleh untuk menghasilkan hasil dapatan kajian yang mantap. Berdasarkan kajian yang mendalam terhadap ideologi perjuangan SIS terhadap Hak Asasi Manusia dan pendirian mereka terhadap ideologi Islam Progresif, artikel ini menyimpulkan terdapat persamaan perjuangan konsep pergerakan SIS dengan asas dan ciri perjuangan Islam Liberal yang sekali gus membuktikan hujah bahawa SIS adalah dari aliran feminisme Islam Liberal. Konklusi ini dibuat berdasarkan sokongan mereka kepada aktiviti organisasi dan komuniti liberal yang berkembang di Malaysia seperti G25, Islamic Renaissance Front (IRF) dan Jaringan Islam Liberal (JIL) di Indonesia. Kumpulan mereka beranggapan bahawa mereka adalah sebagai penyelamat dan penyelesai masalah wanita dan pihak berautoriti agama dilihat sebagai pihak yang bersalah dan bermasalah.

Abstract
Sisters in Islam (SIS) is one of the Muslim feminist organizations in Malaysia that fights for the emancipation of women. It was formed in 1988 and officially registered as a non-government organization (NGO) in 1993 under the name of SIS Forum (Malaysia) Berhad. Despite being considerably new as compared to other women NGOs such as National Council of Women’s Organizations (NCWO), SIS since the beginning of its inception has succeeded in becoming one of the most popular and prominent feminist movements in Malaysia. The study of the struggle for human rights revolves around the question of the extent to which SIS’s understanding and commitment to the struggle for human rights in its framework of Islamic debate. SIS has claimed to be a movement that studies, promotes and advocates human rights from the Islamic perspective. The study was conducted qualitatively and employed all the documented data to produce a robust study finding. Based on the profound study of SIS’s human rights ideology and their stance on the Progressive Islam’s school of thought, this article concludes the similitude of SIS’s movement concept with the fundamental and characteristic of the Liberal Islam, thus proves SIS’s affinity to the Liberal Islam’s ideology of feminism. These conclusions were made based on their affiliation in the activities of Malaysia’s growing liberal organizations and communities such as the G25, the Islamic Renaissance Front (IRF) and the Liberal Islamic Network (JIL) in Indonesia. The group depicts themselves as the liberator for Muslim women and propagator for their rights against discriminations by the so-called misguided and oppressive religious authorities.
