Abstract

This ethnographic study examines Muhammadiyah's grassroots cultural da'wah via PCM Kasihan, Bantul, Yogyakarta (2023–2024), revealing how this puritanical movement negotiates and transforms Javanese culture. Grounded in cultural da'wah, Dahlanism (selective-accommodative-transformative strategy of K.H. Ahmad Dahlan), and purification-accommodation dialectics (Geertz, Malinowski), it deploys participant observation, interviews, FGDs, and thematic analysis of da'wah interactions. Findings highlight Dahlanism's success: accommodating Javanese calendars/Krama in rituals; repurposing yasinan/tahlilan for Qur'anic education; maslahah-driven cultural partnership. Challenges include balancing purity with tradition and cadre hesitancy; recommendations advocate integrating the model into central training and inter-branch forums. Contributions: empirical micro-portrait of da'wah; theoretical sharpening of Dahlanism beyond puritan-traditional binaries for modern Islamic locality strategies.

Abstract

The implementation of the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) curriculum in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia and Thailand, is relatively new; therefore, it is interesting to research students' responses to its implementation. This research aims to determine students' responses to the implementation of the OBE supported by E-Learning as a form of evaluation of the ongoing learning process. The subjects of this research were 250 students at the Faculty of Tarbiyah and Teacher Training at Alma Ata University (UAA), Indonesia, and 250 students at the Islamic College at Prince of Songkla University (PSU), Thailand. This research hypothesizes that the implementation of the OBE curriculum supported by E-Learning at both universities has a significant influence on student satisfaction with learning. This research uses quantitative methods with a quasi-experimental research design. Based on the research results obtained, there was an increase in average student satisfaction before and after the implementation of the OBE Curriculum, supported by E-Learning, at the two universities. This can be seen from the results of the Independent Samples t Test with sig. P-value <0.05. The OBE Curriculum, supported by E-Learning with a blended learning model, is very suitable for implementation at universities as a form of learning revolution in the digital era.

Abstract

In many Muslim societies, women’s access to religious authority and formal dispute resolution roles remains constrained by patriarchal interpretations of Islamic tradition. This study examines how Muslim women in Thailand’s southern border provinces assume mediation roles and exercise agency within these patriarchal religious structures. Drawing on Saba Mahmood’s conceptualization of agency as inhabitation rather than resistance, the research employs a qualitative design based on in-depth interviews with fifteen mediators and related actors in Pattani, Yala, and Narathiwat. The findings identify three primary pathways into mediation: civil society engagement shaped by experiences of conflict, community-based service grounded in religious and social capital, and formal legal professional development. Across these trajectories, women actively reinterpret the Islamic concept of naṣīḥah (advice) to encompass professional mediation, thereby constructing hybrid forms of religious-professional authority. In practice, mediators integrate fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence), Thai civil law, and local Malay customary norms to resolve domestic violence and inheritance disputes. Despite confronting gender-based stereotypes, security risks in conflict-affected areas, and limited institutional support, they transform these constraints through strategic normative positioning and collective networks. The study argues that legal pluralism can serve as a strategic resource for expanding women’s authority when mobilized through internally grounded religious reinterpretation. By demonstrating how religious authenticity functions as a source of empowerment rather than constraint, this research advances socio-legal scholarship on women’s agency in Islamic contexts and offers policy-relevant insights for strengthening institutional support within plural legal systems. [Di banyak masyarakat Muslim, akses perempuan terhadap otoritas keagamaan dan peran formal dalam penyelesaian sengketa masih dibatasi oleh interpretasi patriarki terhadap tradisi Islam. Studi ini mengkaji bagaimana perempuan Muslim di provinsi perbatasan selatan Thailand memasuki peran mediasi dan menjalankan agensi dalam struktur keagamaan yang patriarki tersebut. Berlandaskan pada konseptualisasi Saba Mahmood mengenai agensi sebagai penghayatan (inhabitation) alih-alih resistensi, penelitian ini menggunakan desain kualitatif melalui wawancara mendalam dengan lima belas mediator dan aktor terkait di Pattani, Yala, dan Narathiwat. Temuan penelitian mengidentifikasi tiga jalur utama menuju peran mediasi: keterlibatan masyarakat sipil yang dibentuk oleh pengalaman konflik, layanan berbasis komunitas yang bertumpu pada modal religius dan sosial, serta pengembangan profesional hukum formal. Di sepanjang jalur tersebut, perempuan secara aktif mereinterpretasi konsep Islam tentang nasihat menjadi praktik mediasi profesional, sehingga membangun bentuk otoritas religius-profesional yang hibrid. Dalam praktiknya, mediator mengintegrasikan fikih Islam, hukum perdata Thailand, dan norma adat Melayu lokal dalam penyelesaian kasus kekerasan dalam rumah tangga dan sengketa waris. Meskipun menghadapi stereotip berbasis gender, risiko keamanan di wilayah konflik, dan keterbatasan dukungan institusional, mereka mentransformasikan kendala tersebut melalui strategi posisi normatif dan jejaring kolektif. Studi ini berargumen bahwa pluralisme hukum dapat berfungsi sebagai sumber strategis bagi perluasan otoritas perempuan ketika dimobilisasi melalui reinterpretasi religius dari dalam. Dengan menunjukkan bahwa autentisitas keagamaan dapat menjadi sumber pemberdayaan alih-alih pembatasan, penelitian ini memperkaya kajian sosio-legal tentang agensi perempuan dalam konteks Islam serta menawarkan implikasi kebijakan bagi penguatan dukungan institusional dalam sistem hukum plural.]
