Abstract

This writing tries to explore the relation between the humankind and the environment in Islam through the keywords in the Qur’an. It is begun by examining six perspectives concerning the relation between the humankind and the environment. Further, the writer explores the relation of the humankind and the environment in the Qur’an by using two concepts: the first is the goal of the creation of the universe and the goal of the creation of humankind. There are four concepts for building eco theology. They are: taskhīr,( the submission) ‘abd,(servant)  khalīfah (vicegerent) and amānah (trust).Therefore, to build the harmony of the eco-system based on religious understanding, the balance of the four concept mentioned above is needed.

Abstract

The Qur’an is one of the important aspects in fulfilling the required competencies of Islamic Religious Education (PAI). However, little research on Qur’anic literacy has been done, or has never been published. This study was conducted to determine the level of Qur’anic literacy among junior high school students in East Java province. The study took into account 2,267 students, sampled using multistage random sampling. The study showed that in general, the ability to read, copy, and memorize the Qur’an among junior high school students in East Java is of good standards. This proved that the “santri” culture in the communities of East Java has an influence on the above abilities. However, competency in understanding and translating the Qur’an is still low. In fact, the ability to understand or translate the Qur’an is an important indicator of the success of the students’ Islamic religious education, especially with regards to the Islamic Religious Education curriculum in junior high school. In addition, the study also found that Qur’an education conducted by parents and organized by the community contribute to the students Qur’anic literacy.

Abstract

There have been many studies discussing the use of social media for disseminating the religious ideology of both conservatism and radicalism. On the contrary, there have been a few studies that deal with how the moderate groups disseminate the discourse of religious moderation, whereas this topic is significant and needs to be discussed to view the strength and weaknesses as well as the contestation between each group. This article presents the production, distribution, consumption, and social practice of the religious moderation discourse throughout the content delivered by the figure from the groups of moderate Islam, from the Regency of Malang. The article is based on the discourse analysis of several pieces that have been produced by the figure and his team on YouTube and Facebook. The study shows that the production of religious moderation discourse in social media is carried out in two ways: conveying messages of religious moderation and countering narratives of conservatism and religious radicalism. The prospect of Islamic moderation discourse holds the opportunity to gain success in countering the narration of religious radicalism. However, the success of discourse contestation is defined by the strength of its distribution.

This paper is based on the analysis of Radin Jambat folktale text, interviews, as well as additional library research of the Lampung cultural literary sources. Religious receptions as shown in Radin Jambat folktale indicate the preservation of past beliefs, coupled with the gentle addition and inclusion of Islamic teachings, to create harmony between religion and tradition through folktale.

Abstract

There weren’t many scholars who studied the history of Indonesian literacy practices, even though the written sources were available abundantly. The existed studies from many scholars less concerned about the relationship between literacy practice and religious proselytizing (da’wa) in Indonesia. Whereas, both of them are closely related in Indonesia literacy practices, especially in Indonesia’s pre-contemporary era. This study aims to emphasize the relation between literacy practices and Islamic da’wa through KH. Ahmad Rifai works. He was a prolific Muslim scholar in the 19th century who wrote many religious books and countered colonialism. This study reviewed Ahmad Rifai books through a new literacy practice perspective. The argument of this study is the literacy practices had a tight relation with Islamic proselytizing in Indonesian history. The literacy practice for da’wa often considers the locality in culture. Therefore, the form of literacy practice that emerges is a form of literacy that considers local languages and writings, which in this case is the Javanese language and the Pegon script. This paper gives a contribution to the discussion between accommodative da’wa and literacy practices.

Abstract

AbstrakTulisan ini menyajikan pemikiran teologi lingkungan Ranggawarsita, pujangga Jawa di Keraton Sukararta. Tulisan ini berdasarkan pada studi teks-teks Zaman Edan. Teks-teks ini adalah sebuah karya terjemahan dari beberapa puisi, yang mencakup Serat Kalathida, Serat Sabda Jati, Serat Sabdatama, Serat Jaka Lodhang dan Serat Wedharage, yang diterjemahkan dan diedit oleh Ahmad Norma dalam buku yang diberi judul Zaman Edan. Studi ini memberikan kontribusi bagi wacana teologi lingkungan dari seorang pemikir budaya lokal. Pemikiran teologi lingkungan Ranggawarsita, yang ditafsirkan dari teks-teks tersebut, dapat dimasukan dalam pandangan “kekerabatan manusia dengan alam” atau yang juga disebut dengan “deep ecology.” Dalam pandangan ini, kelestarian lingkungan dan bencana akan selalu dikaitkan dengan hubungan antara manusia sebagai ‘hamba’ dan ‘khalifah’ dengan Tuhan sebagai Pencipta alam semesta. Konsep teologi lingkungan Ranggawarsita menggabungkan nilai-nilai kearifan lokal Jawa dengan ajaran-ajaran Islam. Hal ini dimungkinkan karena konteks sosial-budaya, yakni Ranggawarsita sebagai santri sekaligus juga sebagai priyayi Jawa. This article presents eco-theology thought of Ranggawarsita, the poet of Surakarta Javanese keraton (palace). This article based on the study of Zaman Edan texts. These texts is translation work from some poetry text, include Serat Kalatidha, Serat Sabda Jati, Serat Sabdatama, Serat Jaka Lodhang, dan Serat Wedharage, which translated and edited by Ahmad Norma in the book of Zaman Edan. This study gives a contribution for eco-theology discourse from local cultural thinker. Eco-theology thought of Ranggawarsita, which interpreted from Zaman Edan texts, can be included in the view of “human kinship with all creatures” or which may be called deep ecology. In this view, environmental sustainability and disasters will always be associated with the relationship between man as servant and caliph with God as the Creator and the universe. The concept of eco- theology’s Ranggawarsita combine the values of Javanese local wisdom with Islamic teachings. It is possible with socio-cultural context, ie, Ranggawarsita as a santri as well as Javanese priyayi.
