Abstract

This article looks at how the Hadhrami Arab community in the Dutch East Indies built Islamic legal responses to colonial citizenship across the 1914 to 1945 period. Using siyāsah syar‘iyyah as the main analytical framework, the study investigates the competing positions of Al-Rabithah al-Alawiyah and the Partai Arab Indonesia (PAI) in defining loyalty, homeland, and civic belonging. This research employs a historical-interpretative approach based on archival documents, colonial legal texts, organizational writings, newspapers, and relevant secondary literature. The findings show that being classified as Vreemde Oosterlingen pushed the Hadhramis toward two major legal-political responses. Al-Rabithah leaned into a transnational Muslim identity and ties to Hadhramaut as a way of holding onto religious autonomy under colonial rule. In contrast, PAI, led by the Peranakan Arab generation and represented by A. R. Baswedan, promoted integration into Indonesia as an Islamic and civic strategy for equality, security, and anti-colonial solidarity. This article adds to Islamic law and citizenship studies by showing that Hadhrami citizenship debates went beyond ethnic or political conflict, functioning instead as juridical negotiations over Islamic loyalty, public welfare, and national belonging.

Abstract

This study explores the implementation of religious moderation within Chinese Muslim MSMEs in Jakarta. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through observation and in-depth interviews with three purposively selected Chinese Muslim entrepreneurs. Unlike prior studies, this research applies the framework of religious moderation to analyze Islamic business ethics in harmony with local cultural values. The findings reveal that Chinese Muslim MSMEs effectively integrate Islamic principles with traditional Chinese virtues, such as birr al-wālidayn and xiao, emphasizing filial piety as foundational ethical values. These values shape business practices that are fair, humane, and socially responsible. The study demonstrates that religious moderation can be expressed through daily business conduct, fostering tolerance, respect, and cross-cultural understanding. The integration of Islamic teachings and Chinese traditions offers a model for inclusive and sustainable business environments. Ultimately, this research contributes to broader efforts in promoting religious moderation and multicultural coexistence in economic practices.
