Abstract

Media discourse has become a crucial arena in which public policy, religious legitimacy, and state authority are constructed and negotiated, particularly in religiously sensitive policy contexts such as Hajj governance in Indonesia. Despite extensive studies on Hajj administration, limited attention has been given to how media discourse legitimizes policy and reconfigures Islamic authority through linguistic and multimodal representations. This study aims to analyze how media discourse constructs and negotiates Islamic authority in the communication of the Hajj cost reduction policy, identify the discursive and multimodal strategies used to legitimize the policy, and examine their implications for contemporary Islamic governance. Employing a qualitative critical case study, this research analyzes selected online news reports published during the period surrounding the official policy announcement. Data were examined through the integration of Critical Discourse Analysis and Multimodal Discourse Analysis, focusing on lexical choices, actor representation, visual composition, and numerical visualization. The findings show that media discourse legitimizes the policy by framing Hajj cost reduction as ethical responsibility, positioning state institutions as legitimate religious authorities, reinforcing transparency and efficiency through numerical and visual representations, and embedding fiscal policy within the lived religious experience of Hajj. This study contributes to communication and Islamic governance scholarship by demonstrating that policy legitimacy is produced through the interaction of textual, visual, and numerical modes, resulting in a hybrid form of Islamic authority where bureaucratic governance and moral-religious values mutually reinforce one another.

Abstract

The concept of qiwāmah (male authority) in Q.4:34 remains a central yet contested foundation in Islamic family law, particularly in shaping gender roles and marital authority. While classical and modern tafsir have largely legitimized male leadership, existing scholarship tends to focus on reinterpretation or normative critique, leaving a gap in examining the epistemological structures that produce and sustain patriarchal authority. This study investigates qiwāmah as a site of epistemic violence and analyzes how gendered authority is constructed within Qur’anic exegesis and institutionalized in Islamic family law, particularly in the Indonesian Kompilasi Hukum Islam (KHI). Employing a qualitative approach grounded in critical hermeneutics and socio-legal analysis, the study examines classical, modern, and critical tafsir alongside legal documents. The findings demonstrate that qiwāmah is not a fixed theological doctrine but an epistemic construct shaped through interpretive traditions, juristic reasoning, and legal institutionalization. Patriarchal interpretations are reproduced through the nafaqah ṭā‘ah framework and codified in legal systems, while marginalizing alternative perspectives. This study’s specific contribution lies in advancing epistemic violence as an analytical tool in Qur’anic exegesis, shifting analysis from textual meaning to the structures of knowledge production that sustain legal authority. It further provides a framework for Islamic legal reform, emphasizing the need to reinterpret qiwāmah in light of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, particularly justice and human dignity.
