Abstract

In the context of Aceh, the word “Ulama" refers to an Islamic scholar who own boarding school (In Aceh language known as Dayah) or a leader of an Islamic boarding school (known as Teungku Dayah). Ulama become "the backbone" of any social problem and play strategic and influential roles in Acehnese society. However, The Ulama roles have changed in the post-conflict era in Aceh. The assumption that Ulama are unable running their authorities in Acehnese society especially in the post-conflict era. Ideally, their roles are needed in the reconciliation regarding the agents of reconciliation who have authority like the Ulama and are trustworthy by Acehnese society. Therefore, this article aims to discuss the position of Ulama in the process of post-conflict reconciliation in Aceh. To investigate the problem, a descriptive qualitative method was used, where the method is to describe the nature of a temporary situation that occurs when the research is carried out in detail, and then the causes of the symptoms were examined. The data were literature studies, participatory observation, and in-depth interviews. The results of this research showed that during an important period of Aceh's history, the Ulama constantly become guardians that provide a religious ethical foundation for each socio-political change in Aceh, and subsequently they also act as the successor to the religious style that developed in the society. Even the formation and development of the socio-political and cultural system occurred partly on the contribution of the Ulama. The position of Ulama in the process of post-conflict reconciliation in Aceh can be found in four ways. Firstly, knowledge transmission. Secondly, as a legal decision-maker which refers to Sharia law, especially related to the reconciliation process. Thirdly, as a mediator. Fourthly, cultural roles in the form of ritual or ceremonial guides that are carried out when the parties of the conflict have met an agreement to reconcile.

Abstract

Social media has made viral product consumption increasingly embedded in the everyday lives of Generation Z university students. However, existing research has more often examined consumer behavior through structural variables than students’ interpretations of consumption as a social practice. This study examines consumer culture among Generation Z female students at Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh by identifying their recurrent consumption patterns, the social, digital, personal, and financial conditions shaping those practices, and the meanings they attach to consumption across campus and digital environments. The study employed a qualitative case study design involving 11 female students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews and analyzed thematically through repeated reading, initial coding, cross-participant comparison, category development, and theme refinement. The findings identified fashion, skincare and makeup, and food as the principal categories of viral product consumption. Fashion carried the strongest symbolic value because it was readily displayed and evaluated across campus and digital environments. Skincare and makeup consumption combined concerns about appearance and confidence with assessments of product suitability, whereas food purchases were approached more selectively because of concerns about quality, safety, and delivery risks. Consumption practices were shaped by spontaneous purchasing, peer relationships, repeated social media exposure, influencer recommendations, and family financial support. Participants interpreted consumption as a means of constructing self-image, strengthening confidence, maintaining social acceptance, establishing digital presence, and rewarding themselves in response to academic and social pressures. The study shows that viral product consumption functioned as an everyday symbolic practice shaped by the interaction of digital exposure, campus relationships, and access to financial resources.
