Abstract

The public sphere in Indonesia features prominent piety demonstrations among middle-class Muslims, showcasing religious performances like al-Quran recitation competitions, Islamic films, and the selection of Muslim ambassadors, which collectively color the Islamic public sphere. Previous studies of middle-class Muslims and their religious practices have closely related to a perspective of the commodification of religion. Therefore, this study aims to provide another perspective on the practice of festival piety as a part of efforts to standardize their piety. This research focused on Putri Muslimah, Muslimah Preneur, and Duta Santri events. This research uses a qualitative-descriptive approach with a live-online observation method at the three festivals. The obtained data were analyzed and interpreted using a festival piety concept. It found three findings. First, Puteri Muslimah Indonesia, Duta Santri, and Muslimah Preneur are the locus for forming and demonstrating the piety of middle-class Muslims. Second, piety in the three festivals is a form of cultivation in which one is defined through a compromise of Islamic normativity and class composition. Third, practicing festival piety in the three festivals revives Islamic norms in dressing and class intervention through public spectacles. These findings demonstrate a new explanation of the standardization of Islamic ethics through the operation of Islamic normativity in class ideology.

Abstract

This paper aims to explain the formation of piety among the urban Muslim middle class, which seeks to achieve a non-secular social life. The practice of providing free lunch on Fridays is widespread among the middle class, especially in residential mosques. This phenomenon appears as a new form of piety that not only shapes religious class formations but also serves as an effort to achieve social class ethics. To achieve this objective, this study relies on qualitative data collected through observations at Bunda Mosque in Yogyakarta, a mosque located in a middle-class residential area. This research finds; First, the Muslim middle class constructs collective piety through rituals, wealth distribution and charity for those performing Friday rituals. The Friday free lunch practice is a direct interpretation of the Sunnah and an act of benefiting others. Second, this practice has an orientation toward achieving a non-secular life, which is not merely about the circulation of economic commodities but also involves the purification of wealth and religio-sociological ethics within the Muslim middle class. This study holds significance for the formation of class-based piety through the redistribution of welfare and offers a religious-sociological ethic that critically challenges the dominance of secular norms in urban space.
