REPUBLIKA.CO.ID -- Bagi penyuka sejarah, nama Napoleon Bonaparte dari Prancis mungkin sudah tak asing lagi. Nah, tahukah Anda bahwa ada isu menarik yang konon menyebutkan bahwa musuh bebuyutan Inggris ini adalah Muslim. Tapi ingat, isu ini bukannya tanpa kontroversi.
Isu Napoleon menjadi Muslim ini diungkap dalam harian resmi Prancis, Le Moniteur Universel (terbit dalam kurun 1789-1868). Disebutkan bahwa Napoleon resmi menjadi Muslim pada 1798. Kutipan berita inilah yang kemudian dimuat dalam buku Satanic Voices - Ancient and Modernkarya David Musa Pidcock tepatnya pada halaman 61.
Buku Pidcock ini terbit pada 1992, demikian tulisan yang dikutip media.isnet.org. Pidcock juga menuliskan bahwa Napoleon memilih nama Ali sebagai nama barunya, sehingga menjadi Ali Napoleon Bonaparte. Rupanya Napoleon sempat terinspirasi oleh orang kepercayaannya, Jenderal Jacques Menou, yang kemudian menjadi Jenderal Abdullah-Jacques Menou. Sang jenderal kemudian menikahi seorang wanita Mesir, Siti Zoubeida –yang diyakini memiliki garis keturunan dari Nabi Muhammad saw.
Napoleon disebut-sebut mengakui superioritas hukum Islam, bahkan berniat menerapkannya di kekaisarannya di Prancis. Prinsip-prinsip syariah itu sempat dimasukkan ke dalam Civil Code Napoleon atau hukum yang ditulis oleh Napoleon. Code Napoleon ini kemudian menjadi menginspirasi konstitusi Prancis dan konstitusi negara-negara taklukan Napoleon di Eropa.
Tunggu dulu…ternyata penerapan prinsip syariah dalam hukum Prancis ini ada contohnya di dunia kontemporer. Berita yang ditulis media.isnet.org ini menyebutkan, salah satunya adalah ketika terjadi kecelakaan fatal 1997 yang menewaskan Putri Diana dari Inggris dan teman dekatnya, Dodi al-Fayed. Para fotografer yang memotret insiden tersebut juga ikut dikenai dakwaan hukum dengan bersumber pada jurisprudensi Prancis.
Dakwaan itu menyebutkan, para fotografer ikut bersalah “karena tidak menolong saat berada di lokasi kejadian”. Nah, menurut Pidcock, prinsip ini konon berasal dari hukum syariah hasil ijtihad dari Imam Malik. Lebih jauh lagi, hubungan Napoleon dengan Islam diungkap juga dalam Bonaparte and Islam atau versi Prancisnya, Bonaparte et Islam, tulisan Christian Cherfils. Wallahu a’lam bissawab…(REPUBLIKA.CO)
FOR THE TRUTH!
My effort for the better future
Napoleon is Muslim
Who didn’t know Napoleon Bonaparte, an Famous General and Emperor of France that born at Ajaccio, Corsica 1769. His name got order number 34 from 100 most influanced figure on history, written by Michael H. Hart.
As a most powerful and entitled person of France since 1793, he should be very satisfied with all that he got at that time. But all glory of earthly life not please his inner soul, and the religion that he follow at that time can’t makes Napoleon Bonaparte feeling calm and peace.Then, at 2 July 1798, 23 years before his death at 1821, Napoleon Bonaparte proclaim his Islam to the world.
What makes Napoleon choosing Islam than his past religion, Chistian? These are what he said (From Genuine Islam. Singapore; October 1936):
“I read the Bible; Moses was an able man, the Jews are villains, cowardly and cruel. Is there anything more horrible than the story of Lot and his daughters ?”
“The science which proves to us that the earth is not the centre of the celestial movements has struck a great blow at religion. Joshua stops the sun ! One shall see the stars falling into the sea… I say that of all the suns and planets,…”
Then Napoleon Bonaparte also said:
“Religions are always based on miracles, on such things than nobody listens to like Trinity. Yesus called himself the son of God and he was a descendant of David. I prefer the religion of Muhammad. It has less ridiculous things than ours; the turks also call us idolaters.”
Then:
“Surely, I have told you on different occations and I have intimated to you by various discourses that I am a Unitarian Musselman and I glorify the prophet Muhammad and that I love the Musselmans.”
In the end, he said:
“In the name of God the Merciful, the Compassionate. There is no god but God, He has no son and He reigns without a partner.”
Napoleon Bonaparte admire AlQur’an after comparing it with his Holy Bible. Then he found many strong point of AlQur’an than Bible, and all story behind it.

So this famous statement of the great French emperor certainly gives a reason to us to believe that he might have accepted the hidaya (the true way).

just to correct you Islam does not allow the killing of a people when they choose not to embrace islam, infact the quran states there is no compulsion in Islam, also it strictly does not allow the killing of any human being muslim or not, just as it does not allow the killing of children, women or anyone without weapons at war, I really think you should provide proof when making such claims, as it’s people like you who are the cause of war and hatred, complete ignorance, we muslims don’t brandish all christians as killers because of the actions of the crusaders, IRA, Red eta, RAF of greece or the constant murder on the streets of western christian countries, no because we understand christianity is not the cause of this, neither is islam the cause of this and you must read the Quran before making such claims..

“One came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that may I have eternal life? And he (JESUS) said, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is God”
(Matthew 19: 16-17)
So what do you think of this verse? JESUS himself denied to be called good, why then you say he’s the only way to heaven???

he was illiterate, how can he study the whole bible and claim it was from God?
All the Quran and Hadith is from God, and only God.
