Abstract

Education is essential, especially in an era of disruption and moral deterioration. Consequently, there is a need for multiple forms of religious teaching, particularly in the digital sphere. Women must also be able to access the digital domain, as they constitute most of the religious population. Only women have a greater understanding of women's issues. Hence, the empowerment of Muslim women requires the assistance of female digital experts. The study tried to show that many women also educate and spread Islamic teaching in the digital sector. Even though there is a concept of women in public spaces as aurat, women still show their existence and can keep up with the times. This research was conducted by a case study using a descriptive analysis method through a qualitative approach. The primary data sources are observation, interviews, and documentation with research samples of 10 viral female clerics on social media. It shows that the concept of women appearing in public spaces does not prevent da'wah and social roles, as the existence of women is closely related to their actions for society. Furthermore, preachers in the current era need digital, technological, and human literacy to survive. Nevertheless, they must imitate the previous female ulama and posit them as ideal role models: acting as muharrik (activator), murabbi and mu'allim (educator), munadzzim (organiser/leader), mura'i (guardian), and munasik (controller) for the ummah at the same time. In research on women, gender theory is often used as the basis for analysis; nonetheless, this study primarily concentrates on the theoretical aspects of the female ulama's contribution in the digital era, seeking to comprehend how they adeptly acquire digital literacy to convert religious values into digital formats.

Abstract

Hajj, one of the pillars of Islam, requires physical and mental capability, making it more suitable for healthy individuals. Recognizing the strong desire of older Muslims to perform Hajj, several countries have implemented "Elderly Friendly Hajj" programs. These initiatives aim to ensure senior citizens can participate in Hajj with greater comfort, reflecting Islam's inclusive values and ease of worship. This research investigates the 2023 Elderly Friendly Hajj Program to provide an evaluation for the Indonesian government to enhance the following year's Hajj organization. The study employs a narrative literature review model, comparing data on Hajj and Fiqh for senior citizens, observations of pilgrims, and literature on Hajj policies and regulations. Additionally, interviews with Hajj officers and pilgrims were conducted to gather firsthand insights. The data was analyzed using descriptive analysis. The findings reveal that the government is continuously improving the Hajj system and management, focusing on prioritizing elderly pilgrims. Significant emphasis is placed on providing senior citizens maximum comfort and worship opportunities through enhanced infrastructure, tailored services, and adjustments in Fiqh laws to accommodate their needs. This study underscores the importance of inclusive practices in religious observances, ensuring senior citizens can fulfil their spiritual obligations with dignity and ease. The evaluation aims to assist the Indonesian government in making informed decisions to improve Hajj services for the elderly further in the future.
