Abstract

Ideally, the ecological crisis in Southeast Asia should be addressed through strong technocratic policies and scientific approaches. However, the reality shows that environmental mitigation efforts often remain ineffective due to the absence of ethical foundations and the erosion of spiritual awareness in the human–nature relationship. In this context, the Theravāda Buddhist tradition in Thailand offers an alternative approach through ecotheology, combining spirituality, ecological awareness, and social activism. This research aims to analyze the role of the Thai Sangha as a regional ecotheological model and evaluate its relevance for developing a Southeast Asian ecotheological framework. The study employs a qualitative library research method using content analysis and comparative review of academic literature, religious documents, and ecological monastic practices such as tree ordination, green monasteries, and community forest management. The findings reveal that the Thai Sangha has successfully transformed Buddhist spirituality into tangible ecological action, providing an effective response to environmental crises. Thailand’s ecotheology shows significant potential to be adopted regionally when institutionalized and implemented through cross-sectoral collaboration involving the state, local communities, and environmental NGOs. This study proposes a foundational academic framework for developing a Southeast Asian Ecotheology Model, based on local spirituality, ecological consciousness, and community participation as transformative strategies for mitigating ecological crises in the future.

Abstract

The contextualization of Qur’anic social values has become an important approach for addressing contemporary social challenges in diverse Muslim societies. This study examines how social Qur’anic values are interpreted and contextualized in Indonesia and Thailand, with particular attention to issues of tolerance, social justice, poverty, education, and interreligious relations. Employing qualitative library research and a comparative approach, the study analyzes scholarly discussions on social Qur’anic interpretation and its development within the socio-cultural and political contexts of both countries. The findings reveal that the contextualization of Qur’anic social values in Indonesia tends to emphasize pluralism, religious moderation, democratic coexistence, and national harmony, reflecting the position of Muslims as the majority within a multicultural society. In contrast, the contextualization of these values in Thailand, particularly among the Muslim community of Pattani, is primarily directed toward strengthening Islamic identity, communal solidarity, and peaceful coexistence within a minority-Muslim environment. These differences demonstrate that the interpretation of social Qur’anic values is closely shaped by local historical experiences, cultural traditions, social structures, and political realities. The study argues that social Qur’anic interpretation in Southeast Asia is dynamic and context-sensitive, serving not only as a religious discourse but also as an ethical framework for responding to contemporary social issues. By highlighting comparative experiences from Indonesia and Thailand, this research contributes to the development of contextual Qur’anic studies and enriches broader discussions on Islam, society, and social transformation in Southeast Asia.

Abstract

Ideally, Islamic law in Thailand serves as a moral and juridical foundation for the Muslim community, particularly in the southern provinces of Pattani, Yala, and Narathiwat. In reality, however, the secular nature of the national legal system and the centralized state policy have restricted the implementation of Islamic law. As a result, Muslim minorities continue to experience structural injustice and social marginalization in accessing their religious and legal rights. This study aims to reconstruct Islamic legal thought in Thailand as an effort to achieve justice for Muslim minorities. The research employs a qualitative descriptive-analytical library approach, examining academic works, legal documents, and the thoughts of contemporary Muslim scholars in Thailand. The findings indicate that the application of maqasid al-shariah principles—such as al-‘adl (justice), musawah (equality), and maslahah (public interest)—can provide a foundation for a more inclusive and adaptive reform of Islamic law within a secular state context. Such reconstruction has the potential to strengthen Islamic institutions, promote just policies, and foster interreligious dialogue as a basis for social harmony in Thailand.

Abstract

This study analyzes the dynamics of Islamic business law in Aceh and Thailand, emphasizing the interaction between state regulations and community initiatives. Aceh was chosen because it has a formal Sharia legal basis through Qanun, while the Muslim community in Thailand has independently developed an Islamic economic system in a secular state. Using qualitative methods and a comparative-transnational approach, data was obtained through document studies, in-depth interviews, and participant observation. Thematic analysis shows that state regulation in Aceh provides formal legitimacy but faces challenges in implementation, especially during the transition of financial institutions. Conversely, in Thailand, the absence of legal support has given rise to community innovation in the form of Sharia cooperatives and Islamic value-based business practices. This research contributes to the literature on legal pluralism and Islamic economics by emphasizing that the success of Islamic business law depends not only on regulation but also on the capacity of communities to develop social capital. Practically, the results of this study provide insights for Muslim policymakers and business actors on the importance of collaboration between the state and society in building a sustainable Islamic economic ecosystem.
