Abstract

This study aimed to explore the experiences of Minangkabau individuals who converted to Christianity and to analyze how they negotiate ethnic identity, social belonging, and family relationships after religious conversion. Employing a qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with eight Minangkabau converts residing in Yogyakarta, Jakarta, Medan, Ambon, and Makassar and were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that conversion occurred through diverse pathways, including interfaith marriage, emotional attachment, personal conviction, and prolonged interaction within religiously diverse environments. Despite experiencing varying levels of family resistance and social exclusion, participants continued to maintain kinship ties, cultural attachments, and a strong sense of belonging to the Minangkabau community. The study demonstrated that religious conversion did not necessarily diminish ethnic identity but instead generated an ongoing process of identity negotiation and social adaptation. These findings contribute to the anthropology of religion and identity studies by showing that cultural belonging can persist despite significant religious transformation, giving rise to what this study conceptualizes as a “New Minangkabau” identity in increasingly plural social contexts.

Abstract

The integration of e-learning in higher education encounters intricate problems, including the gender-based digital divide, which may impact equitable access to education. This study seeks to examine the evolution and execution of e-learning through a gender lens within the Department of Political Science at the Faculty of Sharia and Law, UIN Sumatera Utara. Data were obtained utilizing a descriptive qualitative methodology through observation, in-depth interviews with 10% of students (randomly selected to ensure balanced gender representation) and instructors, as well as document analysis and literature reviews. The data analysis utilized qualitative methods incorporating a gender analysis framework. The research findings reveal: (1) merely 30% of lecturers utilize e-learning; (2) a gender disparity exists in technological access, with female students experiencing restricted access to personal devices; (3) digital literacy varies by gender owing to unequal socialization and opportunities; (4) participation trends indicate that female students prefer textual contributions over oral communication; (5) the dual burden of domestic responsibilities impedes the full participation of female students and lecturers. Obstacles encompass the digital access divide, disparities in digital literacy, gender norms, socio-cultural conventions, and insufficient gender-sensitive training. This study advocates for the formulation of gender-responsive e-learning policies, the enhancement of equitable technology access, the provision of inclusive digital literacy training, the creation of gender-neutral material, and the establishment of a gender-based monitoring system to guarantee equality in Islamic higher education.

Abstract

This study explores Islamic economics and business anthropology with a focus on the commercial ethics of the Minangkabau diaspora in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. The central problem addressed is the growing challenge faced by diaspora Muslim entrepreneurs in maintaining Islamic business ethics and cultural identity while navigating increasingly competitive market environments and multicultural business interactions. In Southeast Asia, cross-border trade among ethnic communities continues to expand, yet reports of declining ethical practice and weakened cultural ties in diaspora business networks raise concerns for the sustainability of moral economic conduct. These conditions underscore the urgency to investigate how traditional Islamic values and Minangkabau customs are preserved, negotiated, and transformed within contemporary business settings. This research aims to understand the internalization of Islamic values and Minangkabau adat within the business practices of migrant traders, as well as how these values adapt to Malaysian socio-cultural contexts. Employing a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving 10 key informants consisting of Minangkabau traders and community leaders in Negeri Sembilan. Thematic data analysis highlights the dynamic interplay between religious principles, customary norms, and economic behavior. Findings reveal that Minangkabau traders uphold Islamic business ethics through the values of honesty, trust, and ukhuwah, while simultaneously adjusting to local business norms and regulations. Their ethical approach forms a contextual model of entrepreneurship that balances spiritual commitments with economic pragmatism. This study contributes to the formulation of the concept of Islamic Entrepreneurial Diaspora, offering an integrative model for understanding how Islamic belief systems interact with local culture in cross-national economic practices. The discovery provides theoretical enrichment to Islamic business ethics discourse and demonstrates the enduring importance of local cultural values in navigating global commercial pressures.
