Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to identify how the anti-American sentiment emerges among the Muslim student activists at university. This paper tries to figure out the reason why America perceived negatively how the actions of the activists which are considered as the attempt against America. It verifies that the spirit of anti America occurs among the Muslim students. However, this study reveals that the tendency of anti-America is not related to a religious motive but related to other motives such as American close relationship with Israel, American foreign policy, cultural westoxification and America as a symbol of global capitalism. The respondents for this study were taken from the Islamic activists’ organizations such as Muslim Student Association (HMI), Indonesian Muslim Student Action Union (KAMMI), Indonesian Islamic Students Movement (PMII), and The Student Movement of Liberation (Gema Pembebasan) which located in Makassar.

Abstract

This study analyses the acculturation of Islam to the Ambelu tradition in the celebration of the Maulid Nabi in Bontomanai Subdistrict, Selayar Islands Regency through a comparison of the views of the al-Shafi'i and Hanafi Madhhab. This study aimed to examine whether this practice correlated with Islamic law or contained elements of bid'ah and to assess how local cultural acculturation influenced the implementation of the tradition in the context of religious celebrations. A qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach was used in this study. Data collection included direct observation, interviews with religious leaders and local communities, as well as a review of related documents. The analysis was further carried out by comparing the perspectives of the al-Shafi'i and Hanafi Madhhab on the Ambelu tradition and the concept of bid'ah in Islam. The results showed that the Ambelu tradition was widely accepted by the local community as part of religious culture, despite various opinions among scholars regarding the legal status. The al-Shafi'i Madhhab tended to be more permissive of this practice, while the Hanafi Madhhab adopted a more cautious stance in the context of bid'ah. This study was original in the comparative analysis of two fiqh madhhab in examining local traditions that rarely receive academic attention. Additionally, it also offered fresh insights into the interaction between Islamic law and local culture in Selayar. The results emphasized the importance of a contextual method to studying local traditions in Islam and outlined the relevance of maintaining harmony between culture and religion in society.

Abstract

In contemporary urban settings, mosques are increasingly expected to fulfill not only religious functions but also to serve as centers for community development and social integration. However, challenges in governance and inclusivity often hinder this potential. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Jumat Berkah (Blessed Friday) program at Darul Falah Mosque, Makassar, as a participatory model for revitalizing the social role of urban mosques. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis to investigate the program's implementation, management practices, and community engagement. The program successfully engaged diverse community groups, including marginalized residents and youth, while reinforcing the mosque’s role as a socially responsive institution. Transparent governance mechanisms, consistent volunteer involvement, and effective use of digital tools were found to be key to the program’s continuity and community trust. The study demonstrates that mosque-based participatory programs can address challenges of urban social fragmentation and disengagement. The novelty of this research lies in its integration of structural functionalism theory with empirical insights from mosque-led community practices, offering a replicable model for faith-based urban social development. This study contributes to both academic and practical domains. Theoretically, it enriches the discourse on mosque-based social institutions within the framework of structural functionalism. Practically, it provides a participatory model for faith-based urban social development that can be replicated by other mosques seeking to strengthen community engagement and resilience.
