Abstract

Domestic violence remains a persistent crisis in Indonesia, sustained not only by socio-economic pressures and gender inequality but also by religious discourses that normalize male authority within marriage. This article examines how Qur’anic interpretation, especially Surah An-Nisa verse 34, has been repeatedly used to justify gender hierarchy and, in some contexts, to legitimate coercion and violence against wives. The study employs a qualitative literature-based design that integrates critical hermeneutics, discourse analysis, and comparative exegesis, informed by feminist hermeneutics and decolonial theory. The findings show that dominant classical tafsir constructs qawwamun as inherent male leadership, reduces nushuz to a wife’s disobedience, and accepts daraba as regulated but permissible physical discipline. Together, these interpretations create an epistemic framework that renders domestic violence morally intelligible and socially governable through patriarchal household norms. In contrast, contemporary Indonesian reinterpretations advanced by Musdah Mulia and Faqihuddin Abdul Kodir reframe the verse through justice, reciprocity, and the protection of life and dignity, thereby rejecting violence as ethically incompatible with Qur’anic objectives. This article argues that such progressive tafsir constitutes a project of epistemic decolonization because it challenges the universalization of historically contingent patriarchal exegesis and repositions interpretive authority within context-sensitive ethical reasoning grounded in women’s lived realities. Theoretically, the study contributes to Qur’anic studies and gender justice scholarship by conceptualizing feminist tafsir as a decolonial intervention rather than a simple alternative reading, while also offering a faith-based epistemic foundation that strengthens legal advocacy and supports the implementation of Indonesia’s Domestic Violence Law.

Abstract

The phenomenon of the hijrah movement among urban millennials has transformed the landscape of religiosity in the urban public sphere. This study aims to analyze the transformation of religious identity among urban millennials and examine how they negotiate that identity within the context of urban modernity. Employing a qualitative method with Alfred Schutz's phenomenological approach, this research explores the subjective experiences of hijrah participants in major Indonesian cities (Jakarta and Bandung) during the period from January to December 2025. Data were collected through offline participant observation within hijrah communities, in-depth interviews with six key informants, and netnographic research conducted on Instagram and TikTok. The findings reveal three major themes. First, the transformation of religious identity is driven by because-motives rooted in social anomie and in-order-to motives oriented toward the search for moral certainty. Second, religious identity has shifted from the private to the public sphere through forms of religious aesthetics that are integrated into the lifestyle of the Muslim middle class. Third, the netnographic findings confirm that digital technology has fostered the emergence of digital piety, in which the validation of religious devotion increasingly takes place within virtual spaces. This study concludes that the hijrah movement among urban millennials represents a dynamic adaptation of Muslim identity, giving rise to a new subculture that integrates religious orthodoxy with capitalist modernity while simultaneously reinforcing the process of desecularization in the urban public sphere.
