YAMAN
Again, my story about Yemen. This time about the people. Sana'a is the capital of Yemen, like Jakarta that here. Because of this, people who are not only native Sana'a Sana'a. People from various parts of Yemen must exist in this city. Students, merchants, professionals, drivers, and even beggars. One
proof that very many people from the area who live in Sana'a is the
'death' of this city on Eid al-Adha, because most of the people going
home to their respective regions. Oh yes, Eid al-Adha in Yemen, as well as in almost all Arab countries, like Eid al-Fitr in our country. Eid-ul-Adha, they apologized to each other, each bersilaturahim, and also going home.
Since people from different areas in Sana'a, my impression of the people in Sana'a may fairly be said to represent as my impression of Yemen's population itself. Indeed, some say that the population of Hadramout province, which is quite far from Sana'a, is much more gentle and polite than people in other provinces or Sana'a. However, I also do not get the impression that the people in Sana'a was rude. Maybe some are rude anyway, but thank God I did not see him.
Jambiyyah and Gloves
Yemeni people, as most Arabs, still robed and turbaned in ordinary daily life, especially when it comes to the mosque. But the pants are also not small, at least in Sana'a. And there are some things I think is typical of Yemen.
The first, they were very accustomed to wearing a suit in everyday life. In fact, artisan vegetable sellers or hawkers also wear a suit when hawking their wares. I think, suits have become part of their daily lives. Unlike here, the newly-made suits that attended the seminar, wedding, or other formal occasions. Because so usually suits for them, even this garment sold in the streets by many street vendors. But, being sold in stores or boutiques are also there, which is certainly more luxurious and more expensive.
The second case is typical jambiyyah habits in their daily wear. Jambiyyah is a knife or dagger sheathed, then wrapped in a cuff placed on the waist. Like a dagger in the Javanese tradition. However, jambiyyah always placed at the front of the body, and never put the dagger as the rear.
Jambiyyah is part of the traditional Yemeni clothing. People there think this jambiyyah just 'sila Abyadh' alias weapon decoration. And hence, jambiyyah are sold in the markets, the size, style and a variety of motives.
So, do not be surprised if in the streets and everywhere you will see them bring thin dagger named jambiyyah this. But you do not need to be afraid, because they do not like to do reckless and crazy, as the people in our country that it is not uncommon to use a sharp weapon to the crime.
Still about clothes, Yemenis have one thing in common with the Javanese: still like to wear gloves. At least, the village people (Bedouin) in Yemen is still common to wear gloves in their daily lives. However, their gloves are thicker and they usually wear calf and not limited to ankle as our habit here.
Residents language Yemen
Yemenis reputedly has many Arabic dialects. And in my opinion, is not easy to understand their dialects. Perhaps we can understand a certain percentage, but to be able to understand the dialect of one hundred percent of it is not easy. However, standard Arabic (al-'Arabiyyah al-fusha) remains an official language, which is commonly used in the official forums.
Black fabric and Eye tapering Women Yemen
Well, if that's a little story about the women of Yemen. Unlike in our country, the women in Sana'a closed always wore black. That they are only visible from both the eyes and the palms of their hands. So, do not expect in Sanaa You can watch sexy women dressed in the streets. You can not even expect the kind of clothes she was wearing a different color or variety. They are only one type of clothing, and the color is just one: black. Perhaps, it would be difficult to recognize a woman ya there, lha wong everything is black and only his eyes visible. But, I think it's better to keep the hearts of men. And women become more respected. As a result, life becomes more religious.
Without Bag Lecture
Oh yes, there are other unique things I've encountered in Sana'a. Incidentally my boarding place right in front of Sana'a University. So, passing by the students - and student - a sight that I see every day. It is unique, the freshmen and sophomores that almost all of them do not carry bags to campus. The students only bring a few books. Similarly, female students, only bring a few books that they put in front of their chest while running. So I ask, what they do not need a thick textbook-thick, which requires a bag to carry it? Alternatively, the text books in college and they did not take home. Dont know lah.
Habit 'Nyandu' Every Afternoon
Anything else is most typical of the population of Yemen, the habit of eating one type of leaf called qat. Usually they chew the leaves in the afternoon. Just so you know, this has little foliage psychotropic effects. Not to make someone 'on', but it is definitely cause addiction effects. The people there think that this leaves increases morale and makes them not easily tired. And interestingly, the foliage is legal in Yemen, but it seems not legal outside of Yemen.
When someone is chewing these leaves, one part of his cheek looked bloated, like a man who was sucking on a ping-pong ball-sized candy. And do not be surprised if in the afternoon you will find a lot of people in Yemen and her cheeks, because he was consuming qat.
Muslim schools of Yemen
Muslims are the majority in Yemen. They are divided into two major schools of thought: Syafi'iyah and Zaydiyyah. Schools of the latter is often included in the Shiite sect, but is actually very close to the schools of the schools of Sunnah. I might be able to tell the difference between the two is just the way shalawat, iqamat sentence, and a sentence prayer. When shalawat, they added a 'wa' ala aalihi 'after the name of the Prophet. When the call to prayer, they add the phrase 'Hayya' alaa Khairil 'charity' after 'Hayya' alal Falah '. Similarly iqamat their sentences, in addition to the sentence they pronounce all iqamat two times two times, just like prayer. Besides this small difference, I do not see them differently. And in fact, they also can coexist with each other.
