Abstract

This paper argues that Western Progressives influenced religious views influenced religious outlooks of both Islam and Christianity in Indonesia, despite their selective and adaptive attitude. In support of this argument, the article has looked at the parallel between Progressive and both religions by discussing the most common themes advanced by progressive religions as illustrated in the following four points: (1) progressive figures or organizations in Indonesia (2) social justice and religious freedom within Pancasila (3) the link between religion and modernity (4) gender equality. It is argued that the previous four points are fundamental issues that imply unfamiliar religious views that reflect their respective tenets. It is important to realize that this paper does not imply that the majority of Muslims and Indonesia are progressive. Nor does this paper want to judge whether progressive ideas are favorable or hurtful to the religion itself. Instead, this paper only tries to display one of the reflective sides of religions in Indonesia and leaves it to readers to assess this current development.

Abstract

This paper argues that Salafists, through the use of social media platforms like Instagram, are not only disseminating their interpretation of Islamic teachings but also serving as representatives of the Arabization of Islam in Indonesia. In support of this argument, this research involved an ethnographic data search by randomly sampling Instagram accounts that spread Salafism and are linked with the Arabization of Islam.  The focus was specifically on the @dakwah_tauhid and @mahasiswa salaf Instagram accounts. It is argued that social media, particularly Instagram, serves as a modern platform for Salafists to propagate Islamic teachings based on the Qur’an and Sunnah. Through consistent content creation, they have garnered hundreds of thousands to a million followers, indicating their value in the Muslim community in Indonesia. Coupled with using social media like Instagram to preach ‘pure’ Islam, these accounts also function as influencers that contribute to the Arabization of Islam in Indonesia. This is evident in several aspects of their content, which emphasizes the Saudi interpretation of Islam. This includes referencing religious rulings (fatwas) issued by Saudi ulama, showcasing lectures by scholars who graduated from Saudi institutions, and promoting educational institutions in Indonesia that are managed by Saudi-trained graduates.

Abstract

Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) women in Depok develop ethical resistance to the dominance of conservative Islamic politics, which is controlled by a certain political party. This study aims to examine how NU women articulate and engage in ethical resistance through organizational involvement, and how these actions advance religious moderation and the concept of the maṣlaḥah family in an urban Islamic context. Using an interdisciplinary framework that integrates social capital theory, counterpublics, and ethical agency, the research examines the symbolic, structural, and practical strategies employed by NU women across Muslimat NU, Fatayat NU, and IPPNU. The results reveal that NU women create a distinct social environment founded on justice, compassion, and inclusiveness. Their activism offers a counterbalance to conservative narratives in Depok and helps to revive Islamic traditions in modern and contextual ways. By contesting exclusivity in urban culture and opening up space for a more compassionate, inclusive, and transformative expression of Islam, this grassroots movement contributes to broader social change.
