Abstract

Studies on Islam in Lampung have thus far provided limited insight into the nature of the relationship between Islam and local culture during the early period of its introduction. This study aims to examine that relationship as represented in Memang (ritual chants) from Lampung. This research employs a qualitative design using a philological approach. The primary data source consists of the transcription and transliteration of a bark-paper manuscript from the Lampung Museum, inventory number 2476. The data are analyzed through the theoretical framework of Islam as a discursive tradition, as articulated by Talal Asad. The findings indicate that Bark Manuscript No. 2476 contains four Memang texts that reflect a discursive relationship between Islam and Lampung culture. This relationship is manifested through five key indicators: (1) the positioning of Islam as a source of sacred legitimacy; (2) the integration of Islamic discourse into local ritual language; (3) the continuity and rearticulation of local cosmology; (4) the construction of a semantic hierarchy within the structure of the Memang texts; and (5) the performativity of ritual language as an operational expression of Islamic discourse. This study concludes that the configuration of Memang texts in Lampung reflects a discursive mode of interaction between Islam and local culture, in which local religious practices operate within Islam as a discursive tradition.

Abstract

Amid the complexity of ethnic and religious diversity in public schools, religious moderation becomes essential in creating a safe and inclusive educational environment. This study aims to examine the practice of religious moderation within the context of multicultural education, focusing on the experiences of Chinese students at SMP Negeri 2 Kota Pontianak. In a multiethnic and multireligious society like Pontianak, students from minority groups often face challenges in expressing their cultural and religious identities, especially within formal educational settings dominated by majority values. The study explores how values of moderation, such as tolerance, respect for differences, and social harmony, are manifested in daily school practices. Using a qualitative approach and case study design, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving students, teachers, and school staff. The findings show that the school’s multicultural approach, implemented through curriculum content, interfaith activities, and a culture of dialogue among students, has successfully created an open space for identity expression among Chinese students. The integration of Islamic religious education with the values of religious moderation not only nurtures religiosity but also strengthens social cohesion and inclusive civic identity. This study contributes to the development of adaptive and equitable pedagogical strategies in addressing diversity in formal education.   Keywords: Religious Moderation, Multicultural Education, Chinese Students
