Açık Fikirli Bir Hareket – İrfana Yolculuk

Açık Fikirli Bir Hareket

Hizmet Hareketi sayesinde İslam’ı çok daha derinden tanıdım, özellikle de diyaloğa olan iştiyakını, insanlarla etkileşmeye olan iştiyakını gördüm. Oldukça kucaklayıcı ve açık fikirli bir gelenek olduğunu gördüm.

Teksas’ın Austin şehrinde, bir Roma Katolik üniversitesi olan St. Edward’s Üniversitesi kampüsünde, dinî hizmetler veren birimde çalışıyorum. Aynı zamanda, Austin şehrinde bulunan Güneybatı Diyalog Enstitüsü’nün danışma kurulunda görev yapıyorum.

Sayın Gülen ile tanışma fırsatım hiç olmadı fakat bunu çok isterim. Benim memleketim olan Pennsylvania’da yaşıyor kendisi. Yazılarını büyük bir keyifle okuma imkânım oldu. Dinlerarası diyaloğa getirmiş olduğu entelektüel gücü takdir ediyorum.

Bazen en çok hayran olduğum nokta, Diyalog Enstitüsü programlarında bir araya toplanan kişilerin çeşitliliği oluyor; siyasetçilerden, dinî liderlerden, eğitim dünyasından, iş dünyasından insanlara kadar birçok insan aynı ortamı paylaşıyor, müzakereler yapıyor, dinlerarası diyalog hakkında bilgi ediniyor; Musevîlik, Hıristiyanlık, İslamiyet gibi farklı dini gelenekleri tanıyorlar.

Sayın Fethullah Gülen’in ve bu Hareket’in, özellikle de Austin toplumu açısından, ortaya koymuş olduğu en büyük katkının, çok farklı kesimlerden gelen insanları bir arada toplayabilme başarısı olduğunu düşünüyorum; siyasîler, eğitimciler, dinî gruplardan temsilciler, işadamları, bütün bu insanları bir mekânda toplayarak, diyalog merkezli programlarla bir araya geliyorlar.

Hizmet Hareketi sayesinde İslam’ı çok daha derinden tanıdım, özellikle de diyaloğa olan iştiyakını, insanlarla etkileşmeye olan iştiyakını gördüm.

Oldukça kucaklayıcı ve açık fikirli bir gelenek olduğunu gördüm ki, çoğu zaman Amerikan medyasında bize sunulan tablo böyle değildir. Şahsî tecrübelerim bende İslam’a karşı oldukça ılımlı bir yaklaşım ve anlayış geliştirdi.

Bunun sebebi yalnızca öğretilenler ve yazılan şeylerden kaynaklanmıyor; aynı zamanda, bir manada, Sayın Gülen’i takip eden insanlarla yaşadığım tecrübelerden ileri geliyor.

İnsanların evlerinde bulunup onlarla bir sofra paylaştığın zaman, kişinin kendisini tanımakla kalmayıp değer verdikleri şeyler ve bu değerlere vesile olan olgular hakkında da çok şey öğrenebiliyorsunuz.

Büyük bir güven oluşuyor. Hizmet Hareketi vesilesiyle İslam hakkında çok şey öğrenme imkânını buldum. Bu benim için paha biçilmez bir şey, özellikle de işimin bir parçası olarak Katolik kampüsümüz içinde var olan çeşitli dinler ile birlikte iş yaptığım zamanlarda…

Hizmet Hareketi’nin yaşadığı toplumu güçlendirme adına eğitimi kullanmasını çok önemli buluyorum.

Bu da güzel rol modellerle olur; ahlaklı bir yaşam, aile değerleri, bir yaşam biçimi olarak onlara örnek olabilecek öğretmenlerle olur. Diğer türlü, beceri sahibi olup bunu iyiye de kötüye de kullanabilecek insanlar yetişmiş olur.

Hizmet Hareketi, doğal afetler, yoksulluk vb. sebeplerden etkilenen insanlara yardım sağlama gayretlerinde oldukça aktif bir rol almıştır.

Buradaki gönüllülerden birisi bir keresinde demişti ki, bir Müslüman için komşusu yalnızca yanı başındaki ev değil, sıradaki 100 evdir. Yani, komşulukta sınır yok demek istemişti.
