Abstract

Religious counsellors play an important role in fostering religious life and maintaining religious harmony, particularly in Teluk Patipi District, FakFak Regency, West Papua Province. This study aims to analyse the role, strategies, and obstacles faced by religious counsellors in strengthening religious moderation and social cohesion. This is a qualitative study using a case study approach, through data collection from interviews, field observations, and documentation studies. The results show that religious counsellors function not only as conveyors of religious teachings, but also as agents of social transformation who act as cultural mediators, moral educators, community facilitators, and agents of peace when problems arise between religious communities. The role of counsellors is very important in strengthening religious harmony. The strategies applied include communicative, educational, socio-practical, and adaptive approaches based on local wisdom, such as the philosophy of ‘One Stove, Three Stones’. However, there are various structural, competency, and socio-ideological obstacles, including limited resources, digital literacy challenges, and resistance to religious moderation that religious counselors must face. This study concludes that the success of religious counsellors in multicultural societies depends on their ability to adapt to the local context, build effective communication, and apply inclusive counselling methods. Thus, religious counsellors play an important role in strengthening religious harmony, maintaining social cohesion, and building a faithful, characterful, and harmonious society amid the dynamics of modernisation and globalisation.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the ethical challenges of digital communication in Islam as encountered in the phenomenon of hijabsters on social media, and to offer solutions to the emerging issues. Employing a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, the study is supported by non-participant digital observation and qualitative content analysis. Data were collected through observations of hijabsters posts on Instagram, TikTok, and X (formerly Twitter), which were then categorized based on recurring themes, such as clothing style, messages in captions, use of Islamic symbols, and public responses in the comments section. The findings reveal that the hijabsters phenomenon raises several ethical concerns, including violations of modesty norms, the commodification of Islamic symbols, and covert exhibitionism in digital spaces. The diverse audience responses ranging from praise to sharp criticism reflect a shifting boundary of norms and evolving public interpretations of Muslim female identity. This study highlights the urgent need for clearer regulations regarding religious content online, as well as the importance of digital literacy education that integrates Islamic values such as modesty, politeness, and media responsibility. Practically, the study serves as a reference for educators, parents, and Muslim communities in fostering ethical digital understanding among youth. Theoretically, it contributes to the development of Islamic digital communication ethics discourse within the context of new media culture, while enriching scholarly perspectives on religious identity and self-expression in the digital era.
