Abstract

This paper is not only dealing with depiction of hell (divine punishment) which is very popular depicted by the speech and media news in Indonesia, but also description on meaning, and the possibility on motive behind that description. Applying Burke theory on logology, this paper revealed that the depiction of hell punishment constituted the ritual of purity. Based on the cycle of order, feeling of guilty, redemption through sacrifice to achieve the purity, general depiction on hell are a reflection of the challenges and complexity of legal rules and regulation that exactly will be broken off. This violation of the rule creates a sense of guilty and sin which come out as all the problems and difficulties that the majority of Indonesian must hold – the situation that generates scapegoat. The victims of the scapegoat became the apparent sinners, and the punishment is the sacrifaction which create satisfaction and a sense of clean up.***Tulisan ini tidak hanya untuk membahas penggambaran neraka (hukum­an akhirat) yang sangat populer sebagai­mana digambar­kan dalam pidato dan media di Indonesia, tetapi juga untuk mengungkapkan makna dan kemungkinan motif di balik gam­baran tersebut. Dengan teori logologi Burke, tulisan ini meng­ungkapkan bahwa penggambaran siksaan neraka merupakan ritual pemurni­an. Berdasarkan siklus ke­tertiban, rasa bersalah, pe­nebusan melalui pe­ngorban­an untuk mencapai kemurnian, gambar­an hukum­an di neraka adalah cerminan dari tantangan dan komplek­sitas aturan dan hukum yang pasti akan dilanggar. Pe­langgar­an ini mencipta­kan rasa bersalah dan dosa yang di­wujudkan dalam bentuk semua masalah dan kesulitan bahwa mayoritas penduduk Indonesia harus tahan-situasi yang me­nimbulkan kambing hitam. Para korban yang me­rupakan kam­bing hitam menjadi orang berdosa ter­kutuk, yang hukumannya me­rupakan sebuah pengorban­an, men­ciptakan kepuasan dan rasa dibersihkan.

Abstract

The variety of da‘wa (Islamic preaching) in Indonesia indicated not only the diversity in Islamic groups and identities, but also the varieties and changes in values and principles embraced by Indonesian Muslims. This paper argued that these da‘wa activities constitute searches of most suitable Indonesian Islamic principles that inevitably include the negotiation of Islamic, global, and local values. For this purpose, this paper showed examples of various international and Indonesian Islamic scholars and leaders who help change social, political, and religious rhetorical landscape through various arguments involving especially Islamic and modern-international values. This paper maintained that, in addition to Muslims exposure to modern global principles such as democracy and human rights, the increasing popularity and resilience of local-traditional rituals, per­formances, and expressions in Indonesian da‘wa have significantly shaped the search of the Indonesian Islamic noble values.***Keragaman dakwah Islam di Indonesia tidak hanya tampak dalam keragaman kelompok serta identitas Islam, tetapi juga dalam varian dan perubahan nilai-nilai serta prinsip-prinsip yang dianut oleh umat Islam Indonesia. Tulisan ini menegaskan bahwa kegiatan dakwah ini merupakan pencarian prinsip-prinsip Islam Indonesia yang paling sesuai yang mau tidak mau merupakan upaya negosiasi nilai Islam, global, dan nilai-nilai lokal. Untuk tujuan tersebut, tulisan ini menunjukkan beberapa contoh ulama dan pemimpin Islam internasional dan Indonesia yang membantu mengubah landscape retorika sosial, politik dan agama melalui berbagai argumen yang secara khusu melibatkan nilai-nilai Islam dan modern-internasional. Tulian ini berpendapat bahwa, disamping Muslim harus berhadapan dengan prinsip-prinsip global modern seperti demokrasi dan hak asasi manusia, meningkatnya popularitas dan ketahanan dari ritual,  per­tunjuk­an, dan ekspresi lokal-tradisional dalam dakwah Indonesia telah mem­bentuk pencarian nilai-nilai luhur Islam Indonesia secara signifikan.

Abstract

While Indonesia claims to be the world?s third largest democracy, it recognizes itself as both a secular and religious state. The negotiation of the state-religion relationship influenced by Islamic discourse continues to shape the socio-political development of this largest Muslim nation. This paper describes how Indonesia?s discursive contention is molded by the power and popularity of Islamic discourses. It will present examples and analysis of appeal to fear as coercive discourses from recently published speech events, debates, edicts, regulations, and publications as well as examine the vital role of Islamic discourses in the Indonesian public sphere and democracy. This paper concludes that coercive religious discourses and some government policies not only marginalize the voices of minority and opposing groups, but also curtail participative critical debates that are necessary for a democratic Indonesia.
