Abstract

The phenomenon of “sound horeg” audio systems with bass pressure reaching 95–135 dB has caused social, health, and environmental problems in various regions of East Java. Responding to this condition, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) of East Java issued Fatwa Number 1 of 2025, which stipulates that the use of “sound horeg” with excessive intensity and accompanied by practices that lead to harm is declared harām (forbidden), while reasonable use for positive activities is permitted. This study aims to explain the normative basis of the fatwa through the epistemological perspective of Muḥammad ‘Ābid al-Jābirī, covering three models of reasoning: bayānī, ‘irfānī, and burhānī. Data were collected through a literature study by examining official fatwa documents, fiqh literature, al-Jābirī’s works, and scientific articles related to the “sound horeg” phenomenon. The analysis was carried out using a qualitative-analytical approach, namely, reading the fatwa as a legal text as well as a social phenomenon to see how the three models of reasoning work. The study's findings demonstrate that the MUI combines the legitimacy of sharia texts (bayānī), ethical-spiritual considerations of society (ʿirfānī), and empirical evidence regarding the dangers of noise and social damage (burhānī). Thus, this fatwa is not merely normative but also constitutes a comprehensive epistemological response to changes in modern entertainment culture.

Abstract

The practice of female circumcision or FGM/C (Female Genitalia Mutilation/Cutting) in Indonesia is stated as a purification process by removing najis or dirt in female genital area and it is useful for controlling women's sexual desires so that they are far from evil. Based on this motivation, FGM/C makes women increasingly subordinated by placing the assumption of infertility and being responsible for the satisfaction of sexual relations with their partners. Apart from tradition, this phenomenon is also based on the strong influence of Islamic religious doctrine which generally makes parents feel compelled to fulfill it. Through a qualitative approach with descriptive-analytical methods, this research will compile and explain the data that has been obtained to be analyzed and drawn conclusions. The results of this study indicate that there is no concrete evidence that correlates female circumcision with sexual harmony, female circumcision is purely a tradition and not an Islamic teaching.

Abstract

The transmission of Islamism among the kiais and their students in Madura has become more critical to examine in the last decade. However, some kiais of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) in Bangkalan Madura see that Islamism or political Islam will gradually erode their national commitment. This article intends to reinterpret the nationalism vision of several kiais of NU and measure the extent of their views on the ideology of Islamism discoursed by the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI). By interviewing several kiais, this study finds that the propagation of Islamism in Bangkalan has not been as massive as occurred in Pamekasan, another sub-districts in Madura. The FPI-style Islamism in Bangkalan has been propagated only by a small group though they are vigorously active on social media. The majority of the NU community remains devoted to nationalism, committing that the NKRI is the final state. Islamic moderation promulgated by the kiais has been widely accepted and deeply rooted among the NU community. They believe nationalism and religion should not be separated from the spirit of their struggle (khittah). These two elements have united within their fighting spirit and become the primary trigger in devoting themselves to the nation and state to preserve national sovereignty and the integrity of Indonesia.
