Abstract

This article presents a case study of successful inter-religious philanthropy practices in the context of a natural disaster in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. Previous studies have shown that inter-religious philanthropy often has a hidden ideological mission, prompting resistance from the local community. This study offers a new perspective by depicting the inter-religious philanthropy practices in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, after the 2018 earthquake. The data show that inter-religious philanthropists work as non-state actors mitigating post-disaster poverty with various programs. The findings also indicate that optimizing the inter-religious network and actors in disaster management of the 2018 earthquake, such as distributing aid to the victims-championed by Islamic organizations, such as Nahdlatul Ulama and Muhammadiyah, did not only help solve poverty and welfare problems but also strengthened inter-religious relations and solidarity in the community.

Abstract

Inclusive education strives to provide equal opportunities for all children, regardless of their disabilities, to access education. While inclusive education is vital to ensure justice and equal opportunities for every child, the effectiveness of catering to each child's unique needs and potential is still up for debate. This article delves into research conducted in 2023 in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, which explores the implementation of inclusive education and its impact on justice. The study used focus group discussions with principals, teachers, and parents of two madrasas (Islamic schools) in two regencies, the Ministry of Religious Affairs representatives, the Inclusive Madrasa Educator Forum, and a non-governmental organization. The results show that the implementation of inclusive education in madrasas has made significant progress, including an increase in the number of inclusive madrasas, positive attitudes from the school community, individualized education programs, the establishment of the Inclusive Madrasah Educator Forum, and collaboration between the government, non-government organizations, and the community. However, challenges such as limited resource allocation, a lack of teacher professional development, and obscure study plans, processes, and evaluations still exist. These unresolved challenges may lead to injustice for children with special needs in madrasas.

Abstract

This research aims to explore pluralism in West Kalimantan, a paradoxical place in Indonesia, where multi-religious and multi-ethnic people meet. For social researchers, this situation is unique because, on the one hand, West Kalimantan is known as a conflict-prone area in Indonesia. On the other hand, part of its territory, namely the Singkawang area, is called the most tolerant area. Previous researchers assumed this situation was false because conflicts between religious and ethnic groups still occur frequently. However, the communication strategies and social interactions by ethnic groups in this area have rarely been investigated. The role of the Chinese Muslim group is significant in bringing about harmonization between the polarised groups. Chinese Muslims have provided a link that is socially very instrumental in deconstructing the firm ethnic and religious group identities and boundaries. Although they seem to form their own identity, two sides of that identity are related to religious groups and ethnic groups. Their presence thus balances inter-group communications and interactions. In conclusion, theoretically, the presence of the Chinese Muslim community in West Kalimantan breaks the ice of identity and becomes a bridge of communication between communities.

Abstract

This article analyzes the speeches, works, and views of some Founding Fathers of Indonesia - Supomo, Muhammad Yamin, and Sukarno - as well as other key figures like Mohammad Hatta, K.H. Wahid Hasyim, Johannes Latuharhary, and Hoesein Djajadiningrat. It will explore their perspectives on the role of religion in Indonesia's political and social spheres. In Indonesia, where religion has significantly shaped the country's politics and society, politicians and elites largely agreed that religion is crucial to forming national identity. The main difference between nationalist and Islamist leaders was the extent of religion's influence on the new nation-state, not whether it had a role at all. Some argued for integrating faith into state affairs, while others favored separating the two. The enduring debate reflects the ongoing negotiation of competing visions of Indonesian nationhood, wherein religion is a significant axis of political and cultural expression. Moreover, the "religious state" concept encapsulates Indonesian leaders' nuanced approach to navigating the diverse religious landscape while maintaining a sense of national unity.

Abstract

This article deals with changing trends in scholarship on political Islam in Turkey, Tunisia, and Indonesia. Over the past decades, studies on political Islam have undergone significant changes, shaped by dynamic political contexts and theoretical frameworks. This article highlights changes in academic perspectives regarding political Islam within diverse global and national contexts. In Turkey, scholarship has shifted to analyzing interplays between secularism and political Islam under the Justice and Development Party (AKP). The post-Arab Spring in Tunisia has spurred academic investigations into the involvement of Ennahda with democracy and secular state institutions amid political instability. In Indonesia, scholars have examined various manifestations of political Islam represented by the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) in the context of democratic processes. This article is a literature study, based primarily upon scholarly works on political Islam, it argues that scholarship on political Islam in the three countries witnesses changes, from binary narratives to more context-sensitive approaches, reflecting the evolutionary nature of political Islam in dynamic political landscapes. Initially perceiving political Islam as ideologically rigid, various studies now acknowledge the engagement of Islamist parties in democratic processes and their adaptation to gender issues, integration into transnational connections, and dynamic interplay with secularism. This article reveals that the moderation theory can be an analytical tool for scrutinizing changing trends in studying political Islam.

Abstract

Hadith studies in Indonesia have lagged despite hadith being the second source of Islam. The question is how Muslim scholars and Islamic social organizations have contributed to developing hadith studies in Indonesia. To answer this, library research with an analytical approach was conducted to discover a description of their contributions. Data was gathered through a literature study, analyzing references written by Muslim scholars in Indonesia using inductive and content analysis. The result shows that the lag in hadith studies is due to the lack of attention from Muslim scholars and the limited resources of hadith. However, Hadith studies began to be experienced in the second half of the 19th Century, growing to the early 20th Century. This was, among others, driven by the purification of Islamic teachings and the critique of Orientalists who undermined hadith. In this context, Muslim scholars and Islamic social organizations in Indonesia have significantly contributed to the development of hadith studies, mainly through providing literature on hadith and its sciences. However, their approaches differ. Muslim scholars interpret hadith textually and contextually, while Islamic social organizations, except NU, primarily use a textual approach. NU, in contrast, applies both approaches in its deliberations.

Abstract

Madrasah has been integrated into the national education system. This policy pushed the reconstruction of the curriculum regarding the components of religious and general subjects and its implications for madrasah alums. This research aims to examine the impact of the Ministrial Joint Decree on the academic quality of madrasah aliyah alums in South Sulawesi. This qualitative research gathered the data through interviews with the madrasah principals, teachers, and the head of the education division at the Ministry of Religious Affairs of South Sulawesi. This study shows that both state and private Islamic senior high schools in the province applied various strategies to overcome curriculum overload through maximizing learning hours, improving the quality of teachers, and applying boarding school system where learning activities adopt a fullday system. Through such mechanism, that madrasahs produced competitive alums. A further implication for Islamic public and private schools' alums is concerned with the increase in the number of their alums in pursuing education at prominent state universities in Indonesia.

Abstract

This article attempts to answer the question regarding the possibility of building peace in an Islamic perspective, which is known for various teachings and practices that are contrary to peace, such as the teaching of waging holy war against the infidels and that Islam is triumphant and no other religion may defeat it. Some writers say it is impossible to speak of peace from Islamic teachings. For them, Islam is a religion of violence and not compatible whatsoever with the discourse of peace. However, it is not difficult to find in Islam materials of teaching by which one may develop concepts about peace, peacemaking, and peacebuilding. Islam itself means getting into peace and that Islam teaches justice, enjoins people to goodness, and prevents evil. Loving rather than hating is very much endorsed in Islam's ethical teaching; accepting others as they are is one way to love them. Peace not only exists but will continue forever; it must be constructed and maintained continuously.

Abstract

The mission of Islamic Higher Education Institutions (IHEIs) is to advance Islam as a mercy to all creation (raḥmah li al-‘ālamīn). A manifestation of Islam, raḥmah li al-‘ālamīn, is the practice of religious moderation in campus life and society, characterized by the adoption of pillars such as national commitment, anti-violence, tolerance, and adaptation to local culture. This study seeks to compare human resource development (HRD) methods by enhancing the values of religious moderation in three IHEIs. A comparative descriptive qualitative method was used to understand the HRD of three IHEIs that were the objects of research to identify similarities and differences. The study found that all three IHEIs used a similar approach, such as focus group discussions, training, and webinars. These efforts have only reached the internalization stage in strengthening the understanding of religious moderation. The study's results recommend an HRD framework that integrates religious moderation into the organizational culture to encourage the realization of a civil (Madani) society.
