Abstract

This paper examines the use of social, religious and cultural heritage for community building and mosque participation by Indonesian Muslim communities in New York City and its impact on women’s leadership in al-Hikmah mosque and their production of moral agency and pious self in the mosque setting. I argue that Indonesian Muslim women in AI-Hikmah mosque has more leadership capacity due to the cultural heritage of Indonesian Islam and the complementary status of women in their communities. In this paper, I will, first, discuss how the cultural heritage of a mosque along with its patriarchal, masculine leadership influences womens treatment. I will, secondly, examine how female authority is produced within the enmeshed patriarchal leadership, the heritage of Indonesian values. and masculine mosque cultures. In particular, I will discuss how womens religious and social activities generate empirical characters that shape the performance of female moral agency and the cultivation of the pious self. I will, finnally, analyze a pattern of female authority in the mosque and the way in which women construct their authority as leaders in the mosque. Throughout the paper, I draw parallels between female authority in AI-Hikmah mosque and the social and cultural practices in Indonesia.

Abstract

The meaning of hijrah and jihad has been misunderstood from spiritual meaning to plotical identity among millennial Muslims and students in Indonesia. They start from the desire to change one step to a better or Islamic life in more syar'i terms. However, in the end this understanding led to the emergence of radicalism and intolerance rather than a more contextual and moderate understanding that is relevant to be applied in the life of religion, nation and state. This study uses a qualitative method with the type of library research. The source of the data is obtained through various online media, journals and other literature, and the theory used as an analytical tool is the theory of contextualization. This study finds that the hijrah and jihad movements that are developing among millennials and students in Indonesia originate from a textual understanding of these meanings. The meaning of hijrah and jihad is only understood as a person's change from a bad life to a more syar'i in religion. This phenomenon must be immediately changed towards a textual understanding towards contextual and moderate by using a fast and precise strategy, starting from the teaching system of verses of the Koran and hadiths about Hijrah and Jihad in Higher Education which needs to be contextualized with the current era.
