Abstract

This article reinterprets the concept of ummatan wasathan, which is often understood within a normative framework of religious moderation. Employing a qualitative approach that integrates classical Islamic text analysis, ethnographic observation, and contemporary case studies, this study examines the multiple meanings of wasathiyah in Indonesia’s multicultural Muslim society. The findings reveal three dominant interpretations of wasathiyah: normative-textual, contextual-progressive, and pragmatic-political. These variants compete in shaping public Islamic discourse, often resulting in conflict and limited inclusivity. Although presented as a middle path, wasathiyah discourse is frequently used as a tool of power to legitimize authority and marginalize dissenting voices. The article highlights the necessity of reimagining a more inclusive Islam by expanding interpretive space around wasathiyah, making it more reflective of contemporary Muslim social realities. By recognizing pluralism as an inevitable fact, the study recommends developing a more dialogical religious education model and a flexible Islamic framework that embraces diversity. This research contributes to the Islamic discourse by offering a new perspective on moderation, viewing it not as a fixed ideology but as a dynamic, plural, and context-sensitive process.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of digitizing kitab kuning (classical Islamic texts) through the emergence of digital fiqh applications on religious authority within pesantren environments. Employing a qualitative approach and case study method, this research was conducted in five prominent pesantren in Indonesia: Tebuireng, Lirboyo, Sidogiri, Gontor, and Al-Falah Ploso. Data collection techniques included in-depth interviews with 15 informants senior kyai, ustadz, and active students as well as participatory observation of the usage of apps like Laduni, Taqsim, and Fikih Muamalah. The findings reveal a disruption of traditional scholarly authority, particularly the role of kyai and the system of sanad (knowledge transmission chains). Many students increasingly rely on digital applications rather than direct guidance from their teachers. However, digitalization also brings positive impacts, such as broader access to classical references, time efficiency in bahtsul masail (legal discussions), and a growing interest in reading traditional Islamic texts. The study also highlights the rise of “digital ustadz” who gain scholarly legitimacy without formal pesantren education. Strategic measures from pesantren institutions and the Ministry of Religious Affairs are needed to develop their own digital platforms and regulate fiqh content to preserve the traditional values of Islamic scholarship.
