Abstract

This study explores the strategic use of female teachers as ideological agents in Integrated Islamic Schools (IIS) within Early Childhood Education (ECE) institutions in Padang, Indonesia. It examines how gender roles are utilized to transmit ideological values to young students, raising concerns regarding ideological exploitation. The study is framed within the broader discourse of religious radicalism and gender instrumentalization in education, drawing upon the structuralist paradigm to assess institutional dynamics. A qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to 43 female teachers across 11 IIS-ECE institutions and complemented by in-depth interviews with school leadership. The findings reveal that IIS intentionally recruits female teachers based on specific ideological criteria and integrates them into religious programs post-recruitment. Women are positioned as culturally acceptable figures to convey Islamic ideological values due to prevailing gender stereotypes and societal norms. This process, although appearing empowering, in fact conceals a mechanism of ideological exploitation that reproduces conservative religious identities in early education. The study concludes that women in IIS are simultaneously positioned as victims and agents within a structured ideological system, which has significant implications for understanding gender, power, and ideology in Islamic schooling. Future research is encouraged to adopt alternative paradigms that center women’s agency and rationality in such educational settings.

Abstract

This article aims to illustrate the power of Ramadan as a social space where the Muslim community can reproduce piety. Data were obtained through interviews, documentation, and surveys. The findings of this study highlight two important aspects that characteristically mark Ramadan as a social space. First, Ramadan has become a social arena for Muslims where piety and generosity suddenly emerge as identities continually contested by Muslims. Second, the sudden social patterns of piety and generosity observed among Muslims during Ramadan are shaped by the intersection of religion and local traditions such as padusan and balimau, nyadran and ziarah kubro, along with perlon unggahan and magengan. Therefore, with these findings, we assert that Ramadan not only functions as a social arena but also becomes a third space where society blends religion and tradition, simultaneously strengthening their identity and social status throughout the month of Ramadan
