Abstract

Normatively, Islamic doctrine prohibits figurative art in the form of sculpture or painting. The prohibition actually comes not from the Koran but from various narrations of the Prophet's hadith. However, it has been transformed into an orthodox doctrine for its adherents. This research does not aim to find the essential meaning of the hadith text which prohibits figurative art, but to find out how the Moslem sculptors, who live at Prumpung Magelang area, respond and negotiate toward it, so in the end they decided to compromise with their profession as a sculptor. Reception theory is used in this study to map the creative reasoning model of Moslem sculptors when negotiating with texts. Through the reception approach, and field data collection through in-depth interviews with several informants consisting of Muslim sculptors at Prumpung Magelang, this research concludes that the existence of the statue, according to the perspective of the Moslem sculptors at Prumpung Magelang is merely works of art so that in existence there are no theological problems.

Abstract

This study examines Qur’anic reading methods in Indonesia, focusing on Kediri, through the framework of Market Islam to investigate how religious authority is reorganized within contemporary Islamic educational markets. Employing a qualitative case-study approach, the research analyzes three Qur’anic learning methods—Jamiati, Al-Faqih, and Yanbu'a—using in-depth interviews, participant observation, and institutional documentation. The findings demonstrate that the circulation of Qur’anic pedagogy depends not only on spiritual legitimacy but also on the interaction between supply-driven authority, embodied in sanad, charismatic religious leadership, and institutional credibility, and demand-driven mechanisms, including standardization, teacher certification, organizational networks, and socially differentiated educational demand. While Jamiati and Al-Faqih remain predominantly supply-driven initiatives developed to address internal pedagogical needs within pesantren, Yanbu'a represents a hybrid configuration that successfully translates sanad-based authority into scalable organizational forms through standardized curricula, formalized instructor training, and extensive inter-pesantren networks. Unlike the dominant Market Islam literature, which largely associates religious markets with urban Muslim middle-class consumerism, the Kediri case demonstrates that the demand for Qur’anic learning methods is also generated through traditional pesantren communities, where religious capital, institutional trust, and collective educational traditions shape pedagogical preferences. This study extends Market Islam scholarship by arguing that the commodification of Qur’anic pedagogy entails not the erosion of religious authority but its organizational reconfiguration through the interaction of charismatic legitimacy, religious capital, and market rationality within contemporary Muslim educational institutions.
