Abstract

A deep strategic reading of the Noble Prophetic Biography (al-Sīrah al-Nabawiyyah) reveals that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ personally formulated a comprehensive Prophetic strategic plan and demarcated its political and geopolitical roadmap for the Fath of Bayt al-Maqdis and its al-Aqsa Mosque. This Prophetic strategic plan was based on three principal pillars, or three practical operational phases: knowledge-based preparation, political preparation, and military preparation. After establishing a cognitive foundation in Makkah by linking Bayt al-Maqdis to the creed (ʿAqīdah), 'knowledge-based preparation' evolved into a more sophisticated strategic phase following the Hijrah to Madinah. This resulted in what I have termed, and what may be described terminologically as "the Bayt al-Maqdis Culture in al-Madinah". Accordingly, the first section of this article examines these four pillars –intellectual sovereignty, the dissemination of Bishārāt, the recitation of Sūrat al-Isrāʾ, and the promotion of dialogic engagement– which form the core of the knowledge-based preparation in Madinah. The subsequent analysis investigates the contemporary application of the Bayt al-Maqdis culture, focusing on the implementation of its four pillars within Indonesian society. It details why Indonesia –due to its unique historical, demographic, and economic landscape– serves as the ideal vanguard for leading the "knowledge-based preparation" essential for the next civilisational opening (Fath) of Bayt al-Maqdis and its al-Aqsa Mosque. Furthermore, the study utilises the "Barakah Circles Theory" to explain Indonesia’s emergence as a strategic regional centre of absolute power in Southeast Asia.

Özet

Siyer-i Nebî’nin derin bir stratejik okuması, Allah Resûlü’nün (sav) Beytülmakdis ve Mescid-i Aksâ’nın fethi için kapsamlı bir nebevî stratejik plan ortaya koyduğunu ve bu planın siyasi ve jeopolitik yol haritasını bizzat belirlediğini göstermektedir. Bu nebevî stratejik plan üç temel sütuna, yani üç pratik uygulama aşamasına dayanmaktadır: ilmî hazırlık, siyasi hazırlık ve askerî hazırlık. Mekke’de Beytülmakdis’in akîdeyle ilişkilendirilmesi suretiyle bilişsel bir temel oluşturulmasının ardından “ilmî hazırlık”, Medine’ye hicret edilmesinden sonra daha gelişmiş bir stratejik aşamaya evrilmiştir. Bu süreç, “Medine’deki Beytülmakdis Kültürü” olarak adlandırılan ve terim olarak nitelendirilebilecek bir kavramın doğmasına yol açmıştır. Buna göre, makalenin ilk bölümü, Medine’deki ilmî hazırlığın özünü oluşturan dört sütunu (fikri egemenlik, müjdelerin yayılması, İsrâ Sûresi’nin tilaveti ve karşılıklı diyalog ortamının teşviki) incelemektedir. Sonraki analiz, Beytülmakdis kültürünün günümüzdeki uygulamasını, ilgili dört sütununun Endonezya toplumu içindeki hayata geçirilişine odaklanarak ele almaktadır. Çalışma, kendine özgü tarihî, demografik ve ekonomik yapısı sebebiyle Endonezya’nın, Beytülmakdis ve Mescid-i Aksâ’nın bir sonraki medeniyet fethi için gerekli olan “ilmî hazırlığa” öncülük edecek ideal bir güç olarak nasıl konumlandığını detaylandırmaktadır. Ayrıca çalışma, Endonezya’nın Güneydoğu Asya’da stratejik bir bölgesel mutlak güç merkezi olarak yükselişini açıklamak için “Bereket Daireleri Teorisi”nden yararlanmaktadır.
