Abstract

Research on journalists’ role perception in Islamic journalism remains limited, particularly in contexts where Sharia is formally implemented. This study examines journalists’ role perceptions in reporting Sharia in Aceh, the only province in Indonesia that implements Sharia. A qualitative approach was employed through semi-structured interviews with eleven journalists in Aceh. The findings show that journalists perceive their roles as educators explaining Sharia regulations, advocates of Sharia-related initiatives, and watchdogs monitoring implementation. Membership in the Journalists’ Caucus for Concerns of Sharia (Kaukus Wartawan Peduli Syariat Islam/ KWPSI) encourages a more explicit articulation of advocacy roles. At the same time, non-KWPSI journalists express similar orientations more indirectly. The socio-cultural context of Aceh further shapes these perceptions beyond organizational boundaries, explaining the presence of pro-Sharia orientations among non-KWPSI journalists. The findings suggest that journalism in contexts like Aceh should be understood through both professional norms and socio-religious values, with implications for Islamic journalism education and practice.

Abstract

With its distinctive autonomy in implementing Sharia, Aceh allows public caning as a form of corporal punishment not seen in other parts of Indonesia. This article examines how a prominent local newspaper, Serambi Indonesia, portrayed the implementation of public caning in Aceh over the past decade. This study combined transivity analysis and Gamson and Modiglianis (1989) four framing devices: metaphors, exemplars, catchphrases, and depictions. The analysis focused on 45 articles related to public caning in Aceh published between January 2012 and December 2020 in Serambi Indonesia. The findings reveal that caning is a key theme in these news stories, signalling its execution for Sharia violators in Aceh. The findings also found an ambivalent representation of public caning. Depictions of paramedics, audiences, and public support, along with the use of exemplars, highlight a positive portrayal of the current practice of public caning in Aceh. The punishment is depicted as a way of educating offenders and a means to deter similar offenses in the future, which overshadows the severity of the punishment. The media also conveys a message that Acehs caning punishment differs from practices in the Middle East and suggests a lighter interpretation of Sharia. However, the coverage raises concerns about the effectiveness of caning as a deterrent and the fair implementation of the punishment. Therefore, the representations of public caning in Serambi Indonesia reflects ongoing controversy surrounding the event within Acehnese society.
