Wrong signal for women in Islam in Indonesia.

Yesterday we celebrated the "Isra and Miraj" of the Prophet Muhammad SAW in Al-Ikhlas Mosque in Bappenas Housing COmplex, SAwanganm, Depok, Indonesia. People crowded the mosque to see many attractions and also to witness the sermon and "dakwah" from a wellknown dai (cleric).

Soon after the Dhuhur time comes, all dispersed. Including women. However, all of them were gone. None left. As the result, none of women stay in the mosque to conduct Dhuhur prayer together (jamaah). THus, which one is a must, celebrating with a nice clothes or doing shalat?

What a unlocic way of thinking!
