Keluarga Alaa Murabit pindah dari Kanada ke Libia ketika ia berusia 15 tahun. Sebelumnya, ia merasa setara dengan saudara laki-lakinya, tapi di lingkungan yang baru ia merasakan larangan besar akan apa yang ia bisa capai. Sebagai wanita Muslim yang bangga akan kepercayaannya, ia bertanya-tanya: apakah ini benar-benar merupakan doktrin agama? Dengan humor, gairah, dan celoteh pemberontakannya yang menyegarkan, ia menceritakan bagaimana ia menemukan teladan para pemimpin wanita dalam sejarah agamanya -- dan bagaimana ia berkampanye untuk memperjuangkan hak-hak wanita menggunakan ayat Qur'an secara langsung.

4319
seolah keduanya mempunyai arti

78
299437
4737
Setelah banyak percakapan
dengan teman sekelas,
dengan teman sekelas,
05:16

05:24
And even with the foundation
my parents had provided for me,
my parents had provided for me,
81
312393
3530
Dan bahkan dengan fondasi yang
dibekalkan orang tua saya,

05:27
I found myself questioning
the role of women in my faith.
the role of women in my faith.
82
315923
4295
saya jadi mempertanyakan
peran wanita dalam agama saya.
peran wanita dalam agama saya.
05:32
So at the Murabit School
of International Affairs,
of International Affairs,
83
320218
4179
Jadi di Sekolah
Hubungan Internasional Murabit,
Hubungan Internasional Murabit,
05:36
we go very heavy on the debate,
84
324397
2740
kami gencar memperdebatkannya,
05:39
and rule number one is do your research,
so that's what I did,
so that's what I did,
85
327137
5495
dan peraturan nomor satu adalah:
gali informasi. Jadi saya melakukannya,
gali informasi. Jadi saya melakukannya,
05:44
and it surprised me how easy it was
86
332640
3785
dan saya terkejut betapa mudahnya
05:48
to find women in my faith
who were leaders,
who were leaders,
87
336425
4017
menemukan wanita dalam agama saya
yang menjadi pemimpin,

05:52

Khadija financed the Islamic movement
90
347360
3391
Khadija mendanai pergerakan Muslim
06:02
in its infancy.
91
350751
1661
sejak awal berdirinya.
06:04
We wouldn't be here if it weren't for her.
92
352562
2445
Kami takkan berada di sini
jika bukan karenanya.
jika bukan karenanya.
06:07
So why weren't we learning about her?
93
355627
2647
Jadi mengapa kita tidak
mempelajari beliau?
mempelajari beliau?
06:10
Why weren't we learning about these women?
94
358274
2921
Mengapa kita tidak
mempelajari para wanita ini?
mempelajari para wanita ini?
06:13
Why were women being relegated
to positions which predated
to positions which predated
95
361195
2791
Mengapa wanita disingkirkan
ke posisi yang mendahului
ke posisi yang mendahului
06:15
the teachings of our faith?
96
363986
2670
dimulainya ajaran kepercayaan kami?
06:18
And why, if we are equal
in the eyes of God,
in the eyes of God,
97
366656
2275
Dan jika kita sama di mata Tuhan,
06:20
are we not equal in the eyes of men?
98
368931
3102
mengapa kita tidak setara di mata pria?
06:24
To me, it all came back to the lessons
I had learned as a child.
I had learned as a child.
99
372623
5067
Saya kembali merunut pelajaran
yang saya pelajari semasa kecil.
yang saya pelajari semasa kecil.
06:30
The decision maker, the person
who gets to control the message,
who gets to control the message,
100
378350
3672
Si pembuat keputusan,
orang yang mengendalikan pesan,
orang yang mengendalikan pesan,
06:34
is sitting at the table,
101
382022
2582
harus duduk di meja,
06:36
and unfortunately,
in every single world faith,
in every single world faith,
102
384604
4900
dan celakanya,
dalam tiap ajaran agama di dunia,
dalam tiap ajaran agama di dunia,
06:41
they are not women.
103
389504
2646
mereka bukan wanita.
06:44
Religious institutions
are dominated by men

104
392150
3042
Institusi agama didominasi oleh para pria
06:47
and driven by male leadership,
105
395192
1951
dan digerakkan oleh kepemimpinan pria,
06:49
and they create policies
in their likeness,

106
397143
3436
dan mereka membuat kebijakan
dalam rupa mereka,
dalam rupa mereka,
06:52
and until we can change
the system entirely,
the system entirely,
107
400579
4093
dan sebelum kita dapat mengubah
keseluruhan sistemnya,
keseluruhan sistemnya,
06:56
then we can't realistically
expect to have full economic

108
404672
3267
kita tidak dapat mengharapkan
secara realitis
secara realitis
partisipasi penuh wanita
di bidang ekonomi dan politik.

06:59
and political participation of women.
109
407939

Our foundation is broken.

My mom actually says, you can't build
a straight house on a crooked foundation.

07:21
And there's this amazing thing
that happens in war,

Dan ada hal luar biasa
yang terjadi dalam perang,

07:24
a cultural shift almost, very temporary.
114
432644
3129
yang hampir seperti pergeseran budaya,
walau sementara.

Dan itu pertama kali saya tak hanya
merasa diterima untuk terlibat,

07:27
And it was the first time that I felt
it was not only acceptable

for me to be involved,
but it was encouraged.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Alaa Murabit - Peace expertAlaa Murabit champions women’s participation in peace processes and conflict mediation.
Why you should listen
Alaa Murabit's family moved from Canada to Libya when she was 15. Brought up in a Muslim household where she was equal to her brothers, she was shocked to see how women were viewed and treated in her new country. She enrolled in medical school, but felt frustrated by the gender discrimination she experienced.
During her fifth year in med school, the Libyan Revolution broke out. Murabit was invigorated by how women were embraced as decision-makers in the movement. She founded The Voice of Libyan Women (VLW) to focus on challenging societal and cultural norms to make that the case all the time. Many VLW programs -- like the Noor Campaign, which uses Islamic teaching to combat violence against women -- have been replicated internationally.
Murabit is an advisor to many international security boards, think tanks and organizations, including the UN Women Global Civil Society Advisory Group and Harvard’s Everywoman Everywhere Coalition. An Ashoka Fellow, Murabit was a Trust Women Hero Award Winner in 2013.
