Abstract

KGPAA Mangkunegara IX funeral ceremony has attracted much attention because he was the former ruler of Kadipaten Mangkunegaran Surakarta, Central Java and he died in the middle of activity restriction due to the pandemic Covid-19 in Indonesia. Pura Mangkunegaran has its funeral ceremony but it hasn’t been written in many textbooks. The religious and cultural aspect was included in that ceremony because Mangkunegara IX was a Moslem and also a Pura Mangkunegaran ruler. This article aims to describe the religio-cultural context of the funeral ceremony of KGPAA Mangkunegara IX. Using a qualitative method the study was provided with interviews and an audio-visual documentary to collect the data. The study found that during the funeral ceremony, there were many religious and cultural rites included, such as bathing, praying, and burying the late, wearing a Mataram royal palace as the funeral cloth, brobosan, the Javanese funeral song chanting, and tahlil. Some of them were done simultaneously while the other was not. This finding shows that the relationship between religion and culture is still being maintained in Javanese families with some adaptation due to the pandemic.

Gender equality is a global issue that can contribute to improving the country's economy. The role of women in improving family welfare is very important for economic development. Islam has provided space for women to have the right to work. This study analyzes the contribution of female farm workers to family welfare in East Luwu Regency. The contribution is in the form of increasing family income and family financial management strategies. In addition, this study analyzes the perspective of Islamic law on working wives. The method used in this study is a mixed method. Quantitative methods to measure the contribution of female farm workers to family income and qualitative methods to analyze family financial management strategies, as well as the perspective of Islamic law on working wives. The results of the study show that female farm workers greatly contribute to increasing family income. In addition, women farm workers have a good financial management strategy by implementing long-term investments in the form of cattle and children's education.

Abstract

The word “hijrah” has been familiar among Indonesian middle class recently. It basically refers to the re-adaption religious values in daily life especially for individual Muslims.  This attitude basically responds various issues such as life crisis, mental health issues, anxiety, and also increasing religious teaching demands. Therefore, committed with religion values would be the main answer for every problem.  Recently, “hijrah” is not merely a personal matter, but it has been a collective norm that bound Muslims especially young people. As a collective norm, the “hijrah” intention has responded wide issues. Most importantly, it seems that doing “hijrah” has become an identity symbol rather spiritual motive.  Eventually, it might be a critical point to examine “hijrah” phenomenon among Muslim middle class.  Following up these aforementioned gaps, this research would like to further investigate the recent shift of “hijrah” movement that affected Muslim middle class. Drawing data on the critical literature review, this research shows that committed to “hijrah” is a way to not only strengthen piousness but also how to bring Islam fits in with modernism. This has implication toward the way of religious expression in public space.

Abstract

The scope of this research is at the level of experience of women informal workers in Pasar Besar Palangka Raya. This experience speaks of bargaining power, empowerment in terms of decision-making, economic independence, body and future authorsity and freedom of expression. Nevertheless, the authors found the imprisonment of double burden in the lives of 3 research subjects. The purpose of this study is to show the extent to which the narrative leads them to live the values of equality through informal work. The research method used is qualitative research with interviews., then the authors recorded, transcribed, made a factual solid and then classified into themes that are close to this research. The results of the research through the experiences of women informal workers in Pasar Besar show that women are found to be empowered over assets, time and in decision-making. On the other hand, both empowerment and imprisonment of women's double burden make John Stuart Mill's philosophical lens dialogue in it when talking about marriage as friendship and not as property or slavery. Mill's intersubjective space becomes a buffer in the narrative of women's experiences of informal workers. In addition, the authors finds that gossiping as a negative stigma by society becomes erroneous when confronted with the daily life practices of women informal workers. Gossip/ngerumpi is able to make women's space a place of self-development, self-protection and self-promotion when women are hit by a flood of fatigue, boredom in terms of waiting for the arrival of buyers.

Abstract

Chinese Muslims in Indonesia are still seen as a "marginal" part of the Muslim community. They have basically embraced Islam but sometimes people see them as something other than them. That is, changes in the religious status of the Chinese Muslim community have not affected their social status as a whole. They still face social challenges due to their previous ethnic background. In addition, Chinese Muslims also have to face strict cultural challenges from Chinese in general. They must be able to conform to those traditions before they convert. Chinese Muslims in Polewali Mandar encountered the same challenge but they were able to find a solution to the challenge. For this reason, this article uses qualitative research methods with an Oral History approach. The data was obtained by conducting interviews with Chinese Muslims in Polewali Mandar. The data is in the form of their stories, processes, and experiences as converts. Starting from their stories of converting to Islam, while observing Islamic law, their interaction with the Polewali Mandar community and interaction between their fellow people. This article found that the Muslim Chinese in Polewali Mandar had been accepted by the community. The social conditions they face can be lived well. However, the Chinese stigma is quite difficult to escape from them. They still sometimes get marginalization but the level is quite different from other Chinese. They struggle with the Islamic Faith, that they are part of the majority in Polewali Mandar. Culturally, they can adapt well without having to abandon their old traditions.

Abstract

This paper presents the results of research on the tradition of Cacah Jiwa or prah-prahan in Kasepuhan Cisungsang Lebak, Banten. Banten is inhabited by the diversity of population backgrounds, cultures, languages, and religions that makes Banten as an attractive area and holds the potential for conflict. Conflicts that often occur are always related to the contestation between adherents of religion (Islam) and adherents of various local beliefs, which are still held by some Banten residents, especially those who live in the kasepuhan community. This paper, using interview and observation methods in data collection, aims to analyze how the tradition of prah-prahan is still maintained. This paper shows that Cacah Jiwa ritual is maintained by mixing and matching with Islamic teachings as a belief that recently come. This ritual signifies that indigenous peoples prioritize modes of adaptation in maintaining their traditions. This dismisses the view that there is a contestation between traditional actors and religious teachings and their adherents. For the indigenous people of Kasepuhan Cisungsang, tradition must not violate religious law; traditional practices and religious practices must be within the corridor of state law. Cacah Jiwa contains various prayers to The Almighty, which are read by the perpetrators, conveying wasilah to the ancestors, both the propagator of the religion they profess and the traditional ancestors. These prayers describe their beliefs as followers of Islamic religion. This tradition also teaches the indigenous community to be sensitive to the condition of their relatives, continue to build friendships, and uphold brotherhood.
