Abstract

This article investigates how Indonesian ulama construct charismatic authority on social media, examining how Weberian charisma is signaled, routinized, and scaled in digital environments. The study employs a multiple case study design, analyzing five prominent Indonesian ulama through qualitative content and platform analysis. Data from Instagram, YouTube, and X/Twitter reveal digital charisma as a carefully curated performance, signaled through strategic blending of traditional piety with modern relatability. The research demonstrates how charisma becomes routinized through consistent, platform-specific content that fosters perceived intimacy with followers, while algorithmic amplification enables unprecedented scaling beyond traditional geographical and institutional boundaries. Platform algorithms play a crucial role in both routinizing charisma through content distribution patterns and scaling it through automated recommendation systems. The study's theoretical contribution lies in synthesizing Weber's sociology of charisma with deep mediatization theory within Indonesia's distinctive pluralistic Islamic context. These findings carry significant practical implications, particularly the urgent need to integrate critical digital literacy into Islamic leadership education curricula. Understanding platform mechanics becomes essential for navigating the new religious authority landscape, while the findings also raise important questions about platform governance and algorithmic amplification of religious content in diverse societies.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the educational social intervention in resolving waqf conflicts among conflicting parties in Kotagede, Yogyakarta. The research employs a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design to explore the lived experiences and perceptions of the involved stakeholders. The data consist of primary information obtained through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation of legal and administrative records, while secondary data are derived from waqf-related legal literature and institutional archives. Data were analyzed using a phenomenological reduction process, which includes epoché, horizontalization, and thematic synthesis to interpret the essence of the conflict and its resolution. The findings reveal that social-educational interventions, particularly mediation and community deliberation facilitated by religious and local leaders, play a crucial role in achieving peace and maintaining waqf sustainability. The study concludes that successful conflict resolution requires not only legal mechanisms but also educational and participatory approaches that strengthen legal awareness, empower nadzir, and enhance community trust in waqf institutions.

Abstract

This study examines models of civilizational dialogue articulated by Syed Ahmad Khan, Abdul Rahman al-Kawakibi, Shakib Arslan, and Wilfrid Scawen Blunt during the colonial era (1870–1920). Using a comparative historical approach, the research analyzes primary textual sources—including political essays, journalistic writings, literary works, and memoirs—supported by relevant secondary literature. Through thematic analysis and cross-textual comparison, the study identifies four interrelated dialogical frameworks: Khan's Dialogue of Accommodation, emphasizing Islamic–Western synthesis through education; al-Kawakibi's Dialogue of Resistance, which stresses political freedom as a prerequisite for genuine intercultural dialogue; Arslan's Dialogue of Revival, grounded in pan-Islamic solidarity; and Blunt's Dialogue of Empathy, shaped by imperial positionality and moral critique of empire. While previous studies have addressed these figures individually, this research fills a significant gap by offering a systematic comparative analysis of their dialogical visions within a shared colonial context. The findings reveal that, despite differing ideological and geographical backgrounds, all four thinkers advanced models of dialogue grounded in equality, mutual respect, and reciprocal learning, thereby challenging the hierarchical logic of colonial domination. This study contributes to civilizational dialogue theory by providing historically grounded and normatively relevant frameworks for intercultural engagement under conditions of power asymmetry.
