Abstract

In recent years, there has been a high increase in social media activity for religious purposes. The abundance of social media activity based on a religious theme excessively emerged, namely online preaching, virtual worship, and a new term called ngaji virtual. This paper uses the phenomenological research method to analyze religious phenomena in social media as a new form of cyberculture, grown excessively during and after the pandemic. Data for this study were collected from 150 respondents who were followers of online religious recitations or lectures on social media platforms, particularly on Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram. This study aims to explain the motives of faith-based social media users, with an additional appraisal of their impact on their daily lives. The results showed numerous motives of faith-based social media users, namely the necessity of information about religion and spiritual enlightenment, and even emphasizing that their worship is valid. Social media as a source of information about religion became more widespread after the pandemic, making social media the primary source for obtaining religious knowledge and growing into a new culture. The emergence of this new cyberculture renders disruption in the religious field, from ethical problems to the problem of obscuring religious authority.

Abstract

The daily life of the Muslim community today is faced with various humanitarian problems, including economic problems and oppression. These problems must be solved immediately by reinterpreting the sources of Islamic theology with humanitarian goals. In order for theology to be present in solving various problems experienced by modern humans, it is necessary to reinterpret the values contained in Islamic teachings, from being solely theocentric to theo-anthropocentric. This research will elaborate on the liberation of the tertin das in the manuscript of Kitab Maksiat found in Madura. This type of research is a literature research. This research uses a qualitative approach. The main source of this research is Kitab Maksiat, which is a 24-page Arabic manuscript written in prose style. The results of this study can be concluded that the concept of liberation in the manuscript of Kitab Maksiat can be described into two categories, namely liberation from exploitative economic structures, and liberation of the oppressed (mustad'afin). The attitude of liberation from degrading fellow human beings in the manuscript is manifested in not prioritising the rich over the poor, siding and respecting the mustad'afin, that wealth is not a measure to determine who should be prioritised.
