PREVENTING AND COPING
HIV / AIDS epidemic

One Day in December is World AIDS. AIDS (Acquired Immune Degiciency Syndrome) is a viral disease caused by HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus). After the first discovered in 1981 in the United States (U.S.), disease of HIV / AIDS continues to spread to 150 countries, including Indonesia. The number of people with AIDS in the world in 1991 more than 1.2 million people, while HIV-positive patients reached 12 million. Based on data from UN agencies, there are currently 6.8 million people with AIDS, and 40 million are infected with HIV positive in the whole world.

Meanwhile, the number people living with HIV / AIDS in Indonesia continues to increase. Until September 2006 the total recorded number of HIV positive people reached 4617 and 6987 of AIDS. However, the case is the iceberg phenomenon; not more than the reported observed. Department of Health in 2006 estimated the number of Indonesian people are infected with HIV / AIDS ranges from 169 thousand-216 thousand people. From the number of sex workers (180 rbu-265 thousand people), 8200-9640 people have HIV terinfensi. Whereas sex customers in the largest Muslim country reaches 2.5 million people to 3.8 million people. From the number of 96 thousand prisoners, about 4300-6000 prisoners have HIV terinfensi. 2010, estimated number of HIV sufferers viruf reached 500 thousand people. Indeed, the rate of this deadly disease will continue to increase.

Not Kondomisasi Solutions

Recognized or not, the main cause of this virus is actually a brothel, sex, liwath (homosexual and lesbianism); in addition there are other ways of transmission such as drug users through needle and syringe. To overcome this problem, and steps have been taken by the Government is: a campaign of condom use (kodomisasi); sex education and reproductive health for adolescents to be able to have sex with a healthy and safe; encourage teens to make family planning (pre merital KB) with an injection of anti pregnant; and the similar. If this free sex risk of a fetus, not to worry, because abortion has been legalized.

Condom campaign and is currently being conducted with a very massive. Even people not shy to buy it because it was scattered ATM condoms.

On the other hand, the empirical experience of other countries, such as the U.S. and some European countries shows the failure kondomisasi in peyebaran prevent HIV / AIDS. Why? Because apparently, according to Prof. Dadang Hawari in his book, the Quran and Medical Science of Mental Health Life, the pores of the fabric latex condoms in diameter 1 / 60 micron, while the HIV virus-sized 1 / 250 microns. Thus, the pores of the condom four times greater than the HIV virus. As a result, condoms are not the solution to HIV / AIDS. Meanwhile, the main cause of spread of the deadly virus still left, that is adultery, sex, hiteroseks, homosexuals and the like.

In fact, in one occasion, Vice President, Jusuf Kalla (30/11/06) states that if it 'can not stand' against sex, do not be shy to use condoms, so families are not infected. This attitude, indirectly legalize adultery. So, naturally free sex and prostitution were rampant. While condom use was no longer safe, so rather than to prevent HIV / AIDS, which happened just the opposite. This is the resolution style secular system that never solve the problem, adding even more problems.

Those who incessantly call for kondomisasi think, that religious admonitions are not enough to stop sexually transmitted diseases, because religion is their only place it as a moral appeal alone, typical Secular ideology. Now, he says, already affected side. This affected not to infect others. The way is through kondomisasi.

There are two things that should be recorded. First: the view that religion is the only form of advice sekularistik view. For the case of other religions, may be true. However, for Islam is wrong. Islam does not separate religion and life, the concept (fikrah) by the method of implementation (tharîqah) it. Secondly: Islam also has a complete solution in the settlement of HIV / AIDS.
