Abstract

Syiah had ever been a major Islamic denomination in Aceh for centuries. This research is not only about how much classical Sharia rules can be a reference to resolve political problems of majority and minority division, but also to examine the power of sharia in protecting and marginalising Syiah. Based mainly on classical Snouck Hurgronje ethnography, this study elaborate the the former sharia as a living law in old Aceh and comparing it with recent legal pluralism of Aceh nowadays. With a spectacular growing of traditional Dayah (conservative Sunnism) in present politics, and the transnational Salafi Wahabism intrusion into Aceh, the position of Syiah is at the most tip of the edge in society. Those who embraced or converted Syiah are living scatteredly all over Aceh by a unique ideo-syncretic way of survival. Achenese Syiah are now facing hardest situation in this Syafiidominated land and hardened with the rage of Wahabism

Abstract

Al-Qaeda's infiltration into the Southeast Asian region is inseparable from the existence of Jamaah Islamiyah (JI). Some Jamaah Islamiyah cadres are veterans of the Afghanistan War. Historically Al-Qaeda under the leadership of Osama Bin Laden has trained the military skills of Jamaah Islamiyah cadres to help the Afghan jihadists fight Soviet communism until the Soviets defeated and left Afghanistan. Then Al-Qaeda succeeded in entering Indonesia through the Jamaah Islamiyah network and its cells in Southeast Asia by mobilizing key actors and radical actions. In Indonesia, Jamaah Islamiyah with the support of Al-Qaeda succeeded in carrying out a series of bomb attacks including Bali Bomb (2002), Kuningan Bomb (2004), JW Marriot and Ritz-Carlton Bomb Jakarta (2009). The strategy of the Al-Qaeda movement in Indonesia does not appear openly by forming an underground organization (clandestine). Its existence exists but in the form of a Formless Organization (OTB) for the security of its organization. Their infiltration through these networks has succeeded in bringing in their radical ideology and movements in Indonesia in particular and in the Southeast Asian region in general.

Abstract

Negara dalam Islam yang paling tepat adalah nomokrasi Islam, artinya kekuasaan yang didasarkan kepada hukum-hukum yang berasal dari Allah, “karena tuhan itu abstrak, maka hanya hukum Tuhan yang nyata”. Nomokrasi Islam adalah suatu sistem pemerintahan yang didasarkan pada asas-asas dan kaidah-kaidah hukum Islam  (Syari’ah) yang merupakan “Islamic rule of law”. Untuk mewujudkan pemerintahan yang berdaya guna berhasil, bersih, amanah dan bertanggungjawab secara nomokratis, di Indonesia telah dimulai oleh Pemerintah Aceh yang telah berkomitmen untuk memperbaiki tatakelola Pemerintahan Indonesia dengan melakukan kebijakan reformasi birokrasi  dan menetapkannya menjadi salah satu prioritas Pembangunan Aceh. Berkaitan dengan pelaksanaan penataan  kelembagaan perangkat Indonesia telah di inisiasi di Aceh sejak tahun 2005 hingga akhir 2006. Dengan ditetapkannya UUPA maka terlihatlah gambaran baru dalam sistem penyelenggaraan pemerintahan daerah dan dalam  rangka  pelaksanaan otonomi khusus bagi Pemerintah Aceh. Sejalan dengan hal tersebut, Pemerintah menetapkan PP 41 Tahun 2007 tentang Organisasi Perangkat daerah sebagai suatu pedoman dalam penataan kelembagaan perangkat daerah di Indonesia. Semestinya Indonesia menerapkan sistem nomokrasi Islam sedari awal negara ini berdiri untuk menjaga sistem pemerintahan yang adil, efektif, efisien dan bertanggungjawab bagi seluruh rakyat
PROGRAM KONTRA WACANA TERORISME: SEBUAH USULAN ANTROPOLOGIS SEBAGAI ALTERNATIF DERADIKALISASI DI INDONESIA Chaidar, Al; Sahrasad, Herdi; Zulkarnaen, Iskandar; Rahman, Fauzi A; Kadir, Muntasir Abdul

Abstract

Program counter-discourse (kontra wacana) adalah program yang berusaha menciptakan “a way of thinking that opposes an institutionalized discourse”. Selama ini wacana kaum fundamentalis, kaum radikal hinga kelompok-kelompok teroris sudah terlembaga sedemikian rupa di Indonesia melalui proses yang panjang dalam sejarah sosial politik negeri ini. Teka-teki yang muncul atas motif apakah yang mendasari makin maraknya kaum profesional yang berkecukupan tergiur untuk menjadi tentara Negara Islam Irak dan Suriah (NIIS) atau yang lebih dikenal dengan ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) belum juga terpecahkan secara komprehensif. Hingga saat ini, sudah sekitar 518 warga negara Indonesia diduga bergabung dengan ISIS dan menurut catatan Sidney Jones dari Institute for Policy Analysis of Conflict (IPAC), sudah lebih dari 800 warga negara Indonesia yang sudah berangkat dan bergabung dengan gerakan “teroris” tersebut di Suriah. Oleh karena itu, perlu membangun kontra wacana sebagai benteng untuk membendung upaya “cuci otak” yang dilakukan oleh pihak-pihak yang tidak bertanggung jawab.  Program ini tentu saja tidak akan berjalan tanpa dukungan dari berbagai pihak terkait, terutama pihak-pihak yang paham dengan permasalahan ini. Padahal, di sisi lain, upaya dan program nyata untuk memerangi terorisme yang bersifat straight-forward dan sistematis seharusnya terus digalakkan dan terlembaga. Harapannya, program kontra wacana ini dapat mereduksi dan menghantam ideologi-ideologi yang menyimpang yang selama ini dianut oleh gerakan-gerakan sosial politik keagamaan.

Abstract

Untuk secara efektif menangani ancaman teroris saat ini, kita harus mulai dengan cara pemahaman yang unik di mana jihadisme ternyata mendorong kekerasan, dan dilanjutkan dengan menilai mana negara-negara Barat yang memiliki kekuatan nyata sekaligus kerentanan nyata dalam pendekatan mereka terhadap terorisme. Pada dekade belakangan ini dan sejak 11 September 2001, jelas bahwa kita tidak hanya perang melawan teror tapi prinsipnya terhadap ide-ide jihad yang mengilhaminya. Dengan melihat ke belakang sejak lima tahun terakhir, dan khususnya dua tahun terakhir sejak ISIS mengumumkan khilafah, bisa dikatakan bahwa jihad jauh dari kata statis dengan berbagai ketegangan yang memiliki kecenderungan untuk beradaptasi dan berkembang. Seiring serangan yang baru-baru ini terjadi di Paris, Brussels, San Bernardino dan Orlando menunjukkan bahwa para pebuat kebijakan tidak menganggap secara serius kekuatan ide jihad. Hal ini jelas terlihat ketika pemerintah AS melalui program Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) dari laporan Homeland Security Advisory Council merekomendasikan tidak menggunakan kata-kata seperti “jihad” dan “syariah,” karena takut mengobarkan sebuah narasi “kita lawan mereka.“ Padahal ancaman jihad hanya dapat benar-benar diatasi jika kita peduli untuk memahami bahwa ide-ide jihad memegang peranan dalam mendorong aksi kekerasan. Jihadisme perlu di-packing kembali dari konsep tradisional untuk mengeksploitasi situasi politik dunia Islam terutama di Timur Tengah. Ini berdasarkan fakta ketika ide-ide jihad secara meyakinkan berubah wujud dengan cepat menjadi ancaman fisik kinetik.

Abstract

This article explains the purpose of establishing the Taliban, namely to restore peace, enforce sharia law, and maintain the Islamic character of Afghanistan. However, in responding to the futuh (the revolution, the victory) of the Taliban victory in Afghanistan on 15-17 August 2021, the Indonesian and Southeast Asian Islamists show differences.  Indonesian Islamists and some radical Islamists in Southeast Asia, for instance, such as sympathizers supporting ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) actually show the opposite attitude. IS or better known as ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) considers the Taliban as a sworn enemy and branded them as infidels even though they have the same belief.  The Taliban reject terrorism, even fighting ISIS terrorism and the like. In general, however, the Islamists in Indonesia show no euphoric response to the fall of Kabul instead of a plain hope that the Taliban government is able to rebuild a sovereign, inclusive, dignified, just and prosperous Afghanistan.

Abstract

What happens with ‘’Reformasi’’ (the Reform Movement/ Era)? After tha fall of Soeharto’s New Order regime, Indonesia come into chaotic situation with many religious and ethnic conflicts. Separatism has erupted and corruption has been so rampant. The “door” of democracy opens, and both Islamists and nationalists take part in the political game. The results have been, however, transactional politics, bad governance and uncertainty. A question should be raiseed: is it irreconcilable between the nationalists and the islamists? What is happening when the political games are plyed by both parties is basically the competition of corruption. They are stealing “people resources and welth of the nation”. Islamists do the same as the nationalists stealing power (corruption). The business world is corrupted. Businessmen are in collusion with politicians, rulers, and bureaucrats. They do not care anymore about the fate of the people and the country.

Abstract

Indonesia. The rise of acts of terrorism by Santoso at that time makes the public ask: How far is the deradicalization program? Why do the various community groups become more radical and brave against the apparatus/officers who promote the deradicalization program? Humanization leads to the prevention or overcoming of intensification of conflict and escalation of violence, covering the way for human rights violations or acts of genocide. Humanization refers to a strategy designed to reduce the dynamics of conflict that are destructive and face violence, especially terrorism, as the culmination of radicalism. Indonesia is still not free from inter-religious conflict. Religion, which should be eager to spread liberation and peace for our fellow human beings, is just often breached, even disturbing the integrity of Unity in Diversity. Deradicalization also include humanization because it takes the participation of sincere and serious attention.

Abstract

Southeast Asia is a region that is vulnerable to terrorism. Of the total terrorism cases that occurred in the world, 50 percents occurred in this region. Mindanao is one of the regions in Southeast Asia that since a long time ago has been the basis of world-class terrorism. This situation is getting worse due to the presence of terrorist groups with a strong tradition of maritime piracy. The nexus between terrorism and piracy makes the issue of maritime terrorism in Southeast Asia a regional security concern. Abu Sayyaf Group is a terrorist group in the Southern Philippines that is very well-known but difficult to map. This makes the Abu Sayyaf a source of prolonged tension in the Southern Philippines in particular and in the Southeast Asia region in general. This study is a field observation that uses descriptive analysis to reveal the details of the Abu Sayyaf and the issue of terrorism in Mindanao.
