Abstract

Digital transformation has changed the landscape of Islamic da'wah in Indonesia, including in the production and dissemination of exclusive religious discourse by Salafi groups. This study analyzes the Instagram account @ittiba_salaf, which consistently frames religious pluralism as a deviation from Islamic creed, by referring to verses of the Qur’an and hadith. This study uses Robert M. Entman's framing analysis approach, which includes four main elements—problem definition, cause diagnosis, moral evaluation, and solution recommendation—combined with  Maʿānī al-Ḥadīth analysis to reveal the ideological instruments underlying the use of hadith. The findings show that this account constructs pluralism as a theological and ideological threat, associated with Western liberalism and categorized as a form of kufr. This narrative represents theological reductionism that ignores the complexity of Indonesia’s pluralistic society. This study emphasizes that digital da'wah not only conveys religious messages, but also becomes an arena for contestation over the meaning and authority of Islam, requiring a moderate hermeneutical approach to bridge theological commitments with the reality of societal diversity.

Abstract

The phenomenon of pranks on social media has developed into a form of entertainment that is fraught with ethical and moral issues, especially when carried out without considering the psychological impact on the victims. Although it often receives positive responses from netizens, this type of content essentially indicates a tolerance for symbolic violence in the digital space. This article analyzes Abdullah Gymnastiar’s (Aa Gym) critical response to prank practices from an Islamic ethical perspective, which was uploaded to Aa Gym’s YouTube account on May 9, 2022, entitled “Celakanya Prank yang Mendzolimi Orang Lain-kajian singkat Aa Gym”, with reference to the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad about joking, particularly in Sunan Abī Dāwūd. This study uses Norman Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis approach through three stages: (1) text analysis as a representation of something that contains a certain ideology because it wants to see how reality is formed in the text to identify lexical, sentence structure, rhetorical style, and intonation; (2) discourse practice analysis to understand the context of the production and dissemination of the message in digital media, and (3) socio-cultural practice analysis to relate the findings to Islamic ethical norms and the dynamics of online humor culture. This study explores the construction of language, moral values, and religious norms in Aa Gym’s digital dakwah content and its implications for public understanding of ethical boundaries in online humor culture. The analysis reveals that Aa Gym emphasizes the importance of responsible humor that entertains without hurting or degrading others. This study underscores the importance of ethical reflection on digital humor practices and the need to reevaluate the boundaries of decency in jokes. Thus, this article contributes to the discourse on media ethics and contemporary da‘wah, while highlighting the relevance of Islamic norms in responding to the challenges of popular culture in the digital age.

Abstract

This article critically examines the use of hadith in constructing the anti-Maulid narrative concerning the celebration of the Prophet’s Birthday disseminated through the Instagram account @foto.video.islam, using Teun A. van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) as an analytical lens. The study focuses on how Salafi ideology is articulated and propagated through religious discourse in the digital sphere. The research problem addresses how hadiths are selectively cited to delegitimize the celebration of the Prophet’s Birthday while undermining the authority of scholars who support it. This qualitative descriptive study analyzes the macrostructure, superstructure, and microstructure of the discourse produced by the account. The findings demonstrate that the use of hadith functions as a tool of ideological legitimation, consolidating Salafi authority within the digital space and marginalizing alternative perspectives in the broader landscape of Islamic intellectual traditions. This strategy is not merely textual or jurisprudential but reflects complex ideological operations that shape perceptions and religious orientations in contemporary digital public spheres. The study also highlights the importance of critical awareness regarding the politicization of religious texts and underscores the need for ethical dialogue and mutual respect across theological differences, ensuring that sectarian divergences do not become sources of social conflict or hierarchical domination. Overall, the research shows that digital anti-Maulid discourse mobilizes hadith as a means to construct and maintain religious authority, while emphasizing the broader implications for critical engagement and responsible communication in diverse Islamic communities.[Artikel ini secara kritis menelaah penggunaan hadis dalam konstruksi narasi anti-Maulid mengenai perayaan Maulid Nabi yang disebarkan melalui akun Instagram @foto.video.islam, dengan menggunakan lensa Teun A. van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). Penelitian ini memfokuskan pada bagaimana ideologi Salafi diartikulasikan dan dipropagandakan melalui wacana keagamaan di ruang digital. Masalah yang diteliti adalah bagaimana hadis dipilih dan disajikan secara selektif untuk mendiskreditkan perayaan Maulid serta meremehkan otoritas ulama yang mendukungnya. Penelitian ini bersifat kualitatif deskriptif dan menganalisis struktur makro, superstruktur, dan mikro dari wacana yang dihasilkan akun tersebut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan hadis oleh akun ini berfungsi sebagai alat legitimasi ideologis, memperkuat posisi Salafi dalam ranah digital, dan memarginalkan perspektif lain dalam tradisi intelektual Islam. Strategi ini tidak hanya bersifat tekstual atau yuridis, tetapi juga mencerminkan operasi ideologis kompleks yang membentuk persepsi dan orientasi keagamaan dalam masyarakat digital kontemporer. Penelitian ini juga menekankan pentingnya kesadaran kritis terhadap politisasi teks agama dan perlunya menjaga etika dialog serta saling menghormati antarmazhab, sehingga perbedaan teologis tidak menjadi sumber dominasi atau konflik sosial. Secara keseluruhan, penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa wacana anti-Maulid digital memobilisasi hadis sebagai sarana konstruksi dan pemeliharaan otoritas keagamaan, sekaligus menyoroti implikasi yang lebih luas terkait keterlibatan kritis dan komunikasi yang bertanggung jawab dalam komunitas Islam yang beragam.]

Abstract

This article addresses an academic issue regarding how the integration between hadith and science is manifested in the digital space, particularly through the use of immersive technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR). In this context, this study analyzes digital content that represents the integration of hadith and science, focusing on several social media accounts on Instagram and TikTok, namely @relijenius, @santai_tapisampai, @edimujiono19, and @vrjourney.indo. John Haught's taxonomy is used to map the relationship patterns between religion and science within this content, including four relationship models: conflict, contrast, contact, and confirmation. This study specifically highlights two dominant approaches: confirmation and contact. The analysis reveals that the confirmation approach is more prominent, reflected in narratives that seek to affirm religious texts through scientific justification. Meanwhile, the contact approach is evident through the use of 5D VR technology, which enables the visualization of religious experiences in an intense and contextual manner. These findings suggest that the integration of hadith and science in the digital ecosystem tends to be practical rather than conceptual, and oriented toward the re-mediation of religious narratives through contemporary language and technology. In this sense, Haught’s typology not only serves as a classification framework but also as a reflective tool for understanding the epistemological dynamics in the production of digital religious knowledge.
