Abstract

This study explores the philosophical depth embedded in “Syair Surat Kapal,” a cultural artifact from Riau, Indonesia, celebrated for its en­chan­ting poetry and melodious rhythm. The research employs a quali­tative methodology within the framework of cultural studies to investigate the philosophy of Islamic Da’wah embodied in the manuscript. The objective of the study is to examine the impact of Islam on “Surat Kapal,” particularly within the context of the oral tradition of the Malay commu­nity in Rengat. It traces the influence of Islamic teachings on this commu­nity’s oral heritage. This study employs literature review and interviews with seven informants from Riau. The findings of this study underscore the significant role of “Surat Kapal” in shaping the Islamic identity within the community. The underlying philosophy of “Syair Surat Kapal” as a me­dium for Islamic da’wah is anchored in the belief that literature and poetry are potent mediums for disseminating religious teachings and fostering moral values. The vivid imagery and compelling narrative of the poem in the manuscript not only captivate the audience but also impart significant lessons about faith and belief in God. Consequently, “Syair Surat Kapal” exemplifies the power of literature in religious and cultural propagation within an academic context.

Abstract

The festival of Aghi Ghayo Onam (The Sixth Feast Day) is celebrated extensively in Kampar, even more so than Idul Fitri on the first day of Shawwal. This sixth-day celebration has become a customary tradition passed down through generations and regularly practised by the people of Kampar Regency. Previous research lacks a detailed examination of the religious customs and attire of the Malay Kampar Riau community from an Islamic viewpoint. This present study seeks to examine these traditions through an Islamic lens. The research methodology employed was qualitative, with observation of cultural events and practices, and analysis of relevant literature as primary data collection and the support data will involve unstructured interviews with community members. The findings of the study reveal that the Malay Kampar people's Aghi Ghayo Onam tradition is deeply intertwined with their cultural practices. Islamic teachings inform their daily lives, including their clothing, food, and social interactions in the tradition. The community also places great importance on maintaining its cultural identity through its traditional food, which is characterized by vibrant colours, intricate patterns, and the spices of the authentic local food. The study concludes that an understanding of these traditions is essential for promoting interfaith dialogue and cultural understanding in a diverse society.

Abstract

Men's problems and interests have been neglected and marginalized primarily because of feminism's political and cultural domination. The novelty of this study is that it provides a current perspective on men's rights in the twenty-first century. The qualitative design of the research relied on semi-structured interviews. Thematic analysis was performed on the data, which included 548 participants from Australia, Indonesia, and the United Kingdom that were classified in Affiliation, ethnicity, status, and gender. The data was collected from Quora as the major source and other platforms (Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter) as supplementary sources. The purpose of this study is not to define anti-feminism. Instead, it describes men's rights, which may be used in any scenario where gender equality is a concern. As a result, supporters of men's rights are concerned about a wide range of issues, some of which have spawned their own organizations or movement, such as the fathers' rights movement, which is particularly concerned with divorce and child custody issues. Gender roles are at the heart of many issues concerning men's rights. In conclusion, men's rights should be treated equally with women's rights to achieve gender equality, and the terms "ladies first" and "Hercules syndrome" should be abolished.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the practice of Petang Megang tradition on indigenous Muslim Malay people in Pekanbaru Riau in welcoming the holy month of Ramadhan, and to investigate the influence of Hinduism on this annual tradition. Petang Megang ritual does not only function as a passed-on tradition, but also reflects the acculturation of Hindu and Islam, social interaction, and community culture. This research is a descriptive study, in which data obtained are presented, analyzed, and explained. This study found that Petang Megang tradition reflects a strong relationship between the two beliefs, Hindu and Islam. The relationship can be seen in the similar concepts of purification in Petang Megang which is similar to tirtayatra in Hindu and wudhu (ablution) in Islam. Despite bringing similarity to Hindu tradition, Petang Megang serves as a medium of Islamic dawah (propagation) where it introduces a cultural practice in its relation to religious event (Ramadan). This study suggests that Petang Megang is a symbol of longstanding harmonious co-existence between Hindu and Islam in the region.

Abstract

Scholars consider Peyek, a typical Javanese light meal, to have deep cultural and religious significance. People believe Peyek represents thankfulness, prosperity, and past benefits, connecting it to Wali Songo’s efforts to spread Islam across Java. This research study investigates the role of peyek in cultural immersion and Islamic da'wah in Yogyakarta. Qualitative research approaches were used to learn about the cultural relevance and Islamic symbolism linked to peyek in Yogyakarta. The Mataram Sultanate region, encompassing the districts of Kota Gede, Tugu Yogyakarta, Malioboro, Kraton Yogyakarta, and Krapyak Stage, was the major focus of the study, which was supplemented with insights from notable peyek markets such as Gamping, Ngasem, and Kranggan. The major research technique used was direct observation, and the study found that peyek is important in solidifying both the cultural heritage and religious beliefs in Yogyakarta. It appears to serve as a conduit for the development of belief and the promotion of local cultural identity through Islamic da'wah efforts, including local cultural components with Islamic preaching to strengthen Yogyakarta's cultural identity and promote religious harmony.

Abstract

The phenomenon of suicide in the context of the Pulung Gantung myth has become a serious concern. However, research that specifically examines the relationship between religious well-being and suicidal ideation in the context of Javanese culture, particularly in areas with a high prevalence of suicide, such as Gunungkidul, is still minimal. The present study aims to identify the role of the Pulung Gantung myth in mediating the relationship between religious well-being and suicidal ideation. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed to explore the unique experiences of Javanese people in Gunungkidul. Snowball sampling was used to identify key informants who met specific criteria, and semi-structured interviews were conducted to collect data on religious well-being and suicidal ideation. To ensure the accuracy and avoid any offence, all collected data underwent a meticulous verbatim analysis. The Pulung Gantung myth exerts a substantial influence on the incidence of suicidal ideation within the Javanese community of Gunungkidul. This myth has the capacity to intensify feelings of despair, thereby expediting the process of arriving at the decision to take one's own life. The development of programs that promote community participation in religious activities. The implications of this study suggest a necessity to reinterpret the meaning of the Pulung Gantung myth so that it is no longer directly associated with suicide.
