Siwa Oasis Syaha, Egypt. October 2018
Siwa Oasis in Egypt is located between the Qattara Depression and the Great Sand Sea. Most of the people are Berber and have their own language and traditions which are different from those of people in other areas of Egypt.
Siwa Oasis syaha is also known in English as the Harvest Festival or Peace Festival. It is held during the first full moon of October following the harvest of dates and olives, the main crops of Siwa Oasis.
It originated about 160 years ago, at the end of the fights between Siwa's tribes. To strengthen the peace agreement, every year those of different tribal backgrounds camp together at the base of Dakrour mountain. Some of the men prepare and cook the main meal each day, then a human chain is formed to fill the dishes and carry them to the families gathered in small circles and all families eat together. Attending are thousands of men and children, from toddlers to teenagers.
The meal preparation is done in the shade of the mosque set part way up the side of Dakrour mountain, the large cooking pots are on fires in a row outside. Some of the preparation is accompanied by singing and there are prayers before the meal is served, more singing accompanies the serving of the food.
A different meal is cooked each day and the cooking supervisors pay great attention to ensure all the food is prepared and cooked well. Meals are a stew with varying quantities of meat which may have bread, rice, tomatoes and onion added, poured over dry bread pieces. The pots are set on fires fed with dry date palm leaves and controlling the heat is important.
In the evening in the center of the camping ground there are prayers and chanting, starting with prayers in a line and then forming a circle / rectangle that keeps expanding as more men join in. Men form the circle but many boys watch from behind the men, taking in the Sufi traditions.
From the first time I heard the chanting in 1995, this moved me deeply. I am specifically interested in the inward dimension of Islam, which Sufi practice focuses on.
Although now the prayers are under electric light, not just the light of the full moon, and there are distractions of cameras and mobile phone cameras flashing, the prayer circle is still deeply moving for me, a special spiritual experience.
In the road leading from the palm gardens to the mountain there is a market where people can buy food and drink, gifts for the children, and even household items. The market includes rides for the children.
Syaha is held over four days. On the morning of the fourth day, the men walk from Dakrour along the road between palm gardens to the center of town. A final prayer circle is held at the mosque.
Many outsiders attending or looking at photos and video of syaha ask: where are the women? Siwa is a conservative society and that is unlikely to change in the foreseeable future. While women do not participate in external celebrations such as syaha or the wedding celebrations held in tents as the men of Siwa do, the women have their own active social life and celebrations shared within families and from home to home. Tradition is that these cannot be photographed, so I am unable to share this side of Siwa life with you as I don’t wish to offend by going against customs and wish to remain welcome in the Oasis, with the privilege of being part of everyday life here.
Matrouh - Siwa Adventure
Mengisi liburan musim panas setelah melewati ujian Azhar yang menguras tenaga dan pikiran, Keluarga Mahasiswa Jambi (KMJ) Mesir mengadakan jalan-jalan ke Matrouh-Siwa. Liburan kali ini merupakan jalan-jalan yang ketiga kalinya diadakan oleh DP-KMJ pada periode 2013-2014 ini, setelah sebelumnya ke Aqua Park dan Dream Park. Dengan mengusung tema Jalan-Jalan Lup !!! Volume 3 rihlah yang ketiga ini mendapat respon antusias dari anggota Kmj Mesir.
Matruh-Siwa merupakan tempat wisata yang menarik yang terletak di barat Negara Mesir. Matruh terkenal dengan keindahan pantainya yang memiliki warna biru menyala, sedangkan Siwa terkenal dengan gurun pasir dan oasenya. Kedua tempat ini merupakan spot travelling yang paling diminati pelancong/turis ke Mesir.
Selain warga KMJ Mesir, jalan-jalan ini juga diikuti oleh beberapa mahasiswa Malaysia, kawan-kawan dari KMKM (Kalimantan) serta kawan-kawan dari Kemass (Sumatera Selatan). Rombongan bertolak menuju Matruh pada Rabu (25/6) malam dan sampai di kota Matruh pada Kamis pagi.
Hari pertama liburan diisi dengan menikmati keindahan pantai Matruh, seperti: Hamam Cleopatra, Pantai dan Museum Rommel serta Ajiba Beach. Rombongan sangat menikmati pantai-pantai yang berada di Matruh, terutama bermain Banana Boat di pantai Rommel. Berkali-kali terjatuh dari boat tidak membuat peserta jera untuk mengulanginya lagi.
Setelah puas seharian di kota Matruh, rombongan melanjutkan perjalanan ke kota Siwa, yang berjarak 4 jam perjalanan dari kota Matruh. Sampai di kota Siwa pada pukul 21.00 malam, rombongan check in di Hotel Cleopatra dan dilanjutkan dengan makan malam. Setelah makan malam, rombongan mengisi waktunya dengan bersepeda di alun-alun Siwa, ngafe dijalanan kota atau sekedar istirahat di hotel.
Hari kedua liburan dimulai dari pagi hari pukul 09.00 setelah sarapan pagi. Banyak spot yang dikunjungi di Kota Siwa ini seperti: 'Uyun Cleopatra, Kebun Kurma Fatnas, Umm Ubaidah Temple, Danau Garam, Dakrur Mountain serta tidak lupa yang paling menarik yaitu Gurun dan Oase Siwa. Gurun dan Oase Siwa ini dikunjungi setelah Sholat Jum'at dengan menggunakan Jeep Desert. Perjalanan dengan menggunakan jeep terasa sangat menegangkan dengan tanjakan-tanjakan dan medan pasir yang menantang. Panas terik dan gurun yang gersang terobati dengan mandi di oasenya yang sejuk dan tawar. Perjalanan di gurun ini diakhiri dengan Sun Bloading, yaitu permainan seluncuran di pasir gurun dengan menggunakan papan skate.
Petualangan di gurun berakhir setelah hari memasuki senja, rombongan kembali ke kota siwa untuk berbelanja dan hunting cinderamata khas Siwa. Ada juga yang kembali menyewa sepeda untuk mempermudah belanja. Setelah puas berbelanja, rombongan kembali ke Bis untuk melanjutkan perjalanan pulang menuju kota Kairo.
