Abstract

The understanding of the Qur'an and Hadith regarding music is still a matter of debate. Some scholars still insist that music is haram, on the other hand there are also scholars who say music is halal as long as it is still within positive limits. Therefore, the researcher conducted a textual analysis between Halal and Haram Islamic Music based on the Al-Quran and Hadith. This research was conducted with read, study, and analyze various existing literature, in the form of the Qur'an, hadith, and research results. By using a qualitative research approach, namely systematic research used to study or research an object on a natural setting without any manipulation in it and without there is a hypothesis test. The result of interpreting the hadith that prohibits music, textually will produce formative understanding and practice. That is, if you only rely on a hadith whose editorial forbids music, then enjoying music is haraam. However, in this case, the textual meaning cannot be practiced just like that because there are hadiths with other editors that allow music to be played. Thus, intertextual interpretation should not be carried out to find the message intended by the Prophet Muhammad. with the hadith. With intertextual meaning, it has a slight impact on extracting with contextual meaning, it results that substantially playing music is not an activity that is prohibited by the Prophet Muhammad SAW.

Abstract

Kloso is a type of local wisdom in the form of woven pandan leaves that can be used as a learning medium to make it easier for students to understand physics concepts. The author realizes that this research, especially the exploration of physics concepts in local wisdom, has limitations. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out activities to explore the concepts of physics and local wisdom in each process of making Kloso in. This study aims to explore and analyze the physics concepts contained in each stage of making Kloso. This research is a qualitative research using data triangulation methods: interview, observation, and literature studies. The results showed that there was a correlation between Kloso’s making stage and physics concept. The physics concepts contained in Kloso such as energy, momentum, parabolic motion, Newton's Laws, pressure, and heat changes. Thus, this local wisdom can be used as a medium of learning, especially in the field of physics, to increase the understanding of physics that is integrated into ethnoscience (Ethno-physics), a science that is actually implemented in every activity of daily life.

Abstract

This article explores the development and the dynamics of pesantren in Banten, a province located in the westernmost of Java. Using historical and anthropological data, I explore the development and dynamics of pesantren. I contend that some pesantrens in Banten not only function as religious educational institution but also to some extent function as political instruments in which the kyais or the leader of the pesantren nurture their Islamic views and interpretations based on their Islamic organization’s interests and agenda. Furthermore, I argue that pesantren in Banten based on their political view has developed into two main categories among others the Islamist dan non Islamist pesantrens that in short or longer period will pave the way to the existence of more plural views and religious authority for Bantenese as well as Indonesian Muslims.

Abstract

This article aims to exploit the coup movement and power polemics that occurred in the Sultanate of Banten. The colonial politics of fighting against each other had succeeded in dividing the noble and religious elites in the palace of the Sultanate of Banten. Apart from that, the Coup Movement carried out by the noble elite Ratu Bagus Buang was a form of protest against Dutch colonial intervention in appointing a replacement for Sultan Zaenal Arifin as Ratu Syarifah. Queen Syarifah's policy of often excluding the noble elite from making policies and sending large amounts of pepper to the VOC, as well as her oppressive policies, have drawn protests from the common people and the nobility. The coup movement carried out by Ratu Bagus Buang had caused a serious polemic in the Sultanate of Banten which aimed to take over power from Ratu Syarifah and expel the VOC from Banten. This confirms that the Dutch colonial political strategy and the struggle for power that occurred in the Banten Sultanate from 1750-1752 have been the determinants of legal changes and social dynamics that gave rise to the existence of the Banten Sultanate.

Abstract

This article describes and analyzes the emergence of a Salafiyah (traditional) Islamic boarding school organization called Salafiyah Islamic Boarding School (Majelis Pesantren Salafiyah/MPS). This organization plays an important role in its efforts to bring out the role of Salafiyah Islamic boarding schools in the political context at the local and national levels. Some of the political momentum carried out by MPS includes organizing Salafiyah Islamic boarding school kyai in the Baros area (Serang district) and Cadasari (Pandeglang district) in advocating and fighting against national company suspected of destroying the water sources needed by residents in the area of Serang and Pandeglang districts, struggling for the Islamic boarding school regulation through the parliament of Banten Province, involving practically in the 2014 and 2019 Presidential Elections, and helping the government to decrease the 212 movement influence in Banten. The research results show that the emergence of MPS is a form of resistance identity, namely an identity that is created by actors who are marginalized or stigmatized by the logic of domination who then build channels of resistance and defense based on the principles of difference from or contrary to existing social institutions.
