Abstract

Needles to say that there are numerous Muslim organizations all over Indonesia, and therefore, some limitation is a necessity. The following qualifications are used to select which of them are to be included: (1) they must be well established and enjoyed a high community support, and (2) act as centers of religious values production and reproduction, especially for the surrounding community. Thus only Muslim organizations with real mass support and strong networks, as well as with real contributions in shaping the Muslims minds and attitudes, will be studied. Using the criteria, besides PERTI, NU and Muhammadiyah mentioned before, thirteen organizations are selected including PERSIS, DDI (Darul Dakwah wa lrryad), Nahdlatul Wathan, and al-Washliyah. Some of these organization are strong only outside Java sucb as PERTI in West Sumatera, al-Washliah in North Sumatera and DDI in South Sulawesi. It is only natural that the research also put great emphasis on Muslims traditions outside Java.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v9i2.671

Abstract

This article tries to map out more than 40 works of Indonesian Muslim writers regarding the Jews (as religion and communities), and the influences of those works in shaping understanding on Judaism and the Jews among Indonesian Muslim communities. This article focuses on examining how those writers interested to the themes they choose in their books, and what are the sources they refer to. In general, there are at least two models of Indonesian Muslim writers have developed in their works on Judaism and the Jews community. The first is the works that are normatively preferring to based their primary sources from the Quran and al-Hadith or classical Muslim scholarship traditions in their depiction on Judaism or the Jews. The second is the works that are mainly characterized to prove Jewish ‘hidden’ agendas as well as political, social, economic and cultural movements played by the Jews as a part of international Jewish connection.

Abstract

The extent of religious values and symbols in encompassing the direction of Indonesian nation state from the beginning of modern Indonesian history was the most popular determinant contestation in Indonesian political activism along with the emergence of the new sentiments of nationalism and anti-colonialism.  Following the embracement of Pancasila (the Five Principles) as the state socio-political foundation, Indonesia would be neither a secular state in which religion was absolutely separated from the state, nor a religious one where the state was organized on one particular faith.  Bearing in mind that religion is very important in the state system, the state normatively defines its role on religious affair, as clearly outlines in the Constitution, paving the way for the government to take religious affairs as part of its service. For many decades, the government is very active to promote religious toleration among the communities given to the heterogeneities of religious groups in Indonesia.  Implicit here is the importance of a well-grounded policy that continually balances the degree of level of contribution of religious groups in forming a unique Indonesian identity. Hence when Indonesian people identify themselves with particular religious grouping, it does not mean that they have less loyalty to Indonesian nation- statehood. It seems clear that retaining religious (and cultural identity) is not the same thing as political allegiance to a country. Ethnic or religious loyalties do not detract from wider loyalties to the country. For them both loyalties are mutually defining their very existence.

Abstract

26 June to 25 July 1999 is of special significance for Indonesian Muslim. Located in Surabaya, East Java, the Wali Songo Festival, the greatest Islamic festival of the year, was held by the Muslim during that time. The Festival -which was officially opened by B.J. Habibie, then the President of Indonesia-was aimed as an important media for the expression of Indonesian Islamic culture and civilization. Thus the festival provided the visitors with the exhibition of many aspects of Islamic civilization achieved by the Indonesian Muslim, from archeological materials - such as the duplicated sword of the Prophet Muhammad, the gravestone of Sunan Ampel and Sunan Bonang (two of the nine Islamic preachers in Indonesia, Wali Songo - to the intellectual heritage like the decorated Qur'ân in various forms and the Islamic books by the 'ulâmi' (Kitab Kuning).  In addition, the festival also exhibited many products by the Muslim, such as calligraphy, rosaries (tasbih), and turbans (peci).DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v6i3.728

Abstract

This article reviews the complex contestation between religion and state in terms of the Muslims role in the formation of nation state since Indonesia’s independence. The article’s first part discusses the emergence of new middle-class Muslims that played a key role in the Islamization process and contribute to the emergence of Islamist attitudes and behavior. These attitudes tend to be strengthened and lead the potential latent extremism endangering multiculturalism and multireligious life in Indonesia. The article’s second part focuses on the long history of the Muslims role as majority groups in the formation of the constitution’s nomenclature relating to the position of religion in the state system. The new middle-class Muslims also have a desire to achieve their dreams exposing the greater portion of religion in public sphere. It can be seen from the strengthening of those Muslims activists in the parliament to transform the comprehensive meaning of the concept of God.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v23i2.3715

Abstract

Southeast Asia is one of the most diverse regions, with hundreds of ethnic groups, various religious beliefs and denominations, and different spoken languages and dialects. These different backgrounds pose serious challenges for the governments in Southeast Asia, not only on how they should manage those diversities in building the nation but also in ensuring a harmonious life. Many believe that cultural and racial diversities have the potential to create tension and conflict in the community. Thus, government and public officials have the responsibility to ensure that societies with different backgrounds embrace a sense of unity so that everyone shares their pride and attachment to their community and the nation. In sum, this is one of the main arguments why regulation (including in terms of religious life) is important. Hence, regulating religion is the most visible manifestation of the state–religion relationship, particularly in a state where religion dominates the political domain and plays an important role in legal and social systems.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v19i3.360

Abstract

The demise of the Cultural Policy (cultuurstelsel) in the mid-nineteenth century inevitably changed the narrative history of the Indonesian archipelago. It was abvious that the policy generated immense profits for the Dutch colonial administration, allowing it to make a profit in addition to balancing its budget. Much of the surplus was sent to Netherlands itself and was used for public expenditures, thereby subsidizing the Dutch taxpayer. However, for the indiginous population of the East Indies, expecting those who were close to colonila agents, cultuurstelsel soon came to mean exploitation and impoverishment.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v6i1.747

Abstract

Buku yang ditulis oleh Steenbrink kali ini berupaya membuktikan sebuah hipotesis bahwa betapapun berasal dari sumber yang sama, Al-Qur'an dan Hadits, kisah Adam dalam tradisi Islam di Asia Tenggara mengalami proses pengkayaan orang sangat luar biasa dan tentunya dalam beberapa hal sangat berbeda dengan apa yang dipotret oleh kedua sumber ajaran Islam itu sendiri. Selain itu, sebagaimana terungkap dalam pendahuluan buku, karya ini berupaya mengklarifikasi kemungkinan adanya persamaan dan kesinambungan antara Yahudi, Kristen, dan Islam sebagai agama-agama Ibrahim (Abrahamic religions).DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v6i2.735

Abstract

In the Indonesia context, issues of good governance have also been an unflagging national agenda. Despite recognition of the importance of good governance, public discourse on this issue has not gained as much attention as it should within this newly democratic country. Following the downfall of the New Order government in 1998,Indonesia has faced the task of rebuilding a social and political system responsive to the changing expectations of the Indonesian people, embodied in the new animating spirit popularly known as Reformasi. This paradigm of reform refers to the wish to see democratic ideals permeate the lives of all Indonesians.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v11i1.657
