The aim of the Ascarya Journal of Islamic Science, Culture & Social Studies (ISCS) is to disseminate the results of scientific research in the fields of Islamic science, culture, and social research widely. ISCS is intended to be a journal that publishes research articles in the fields of education, law, history, literature, sociology, anthropology, politics, economics, communication, science, information technology. ISCS accepts research-related articles with any research methodology that meets the standards set for publication in journals. The main audience, but not exclusively, are academics, graduate students, practitioners, and others. The main criteria for publication on the ISCS are the importance of the contribution of an article to literature in the fields of Islamic science, culture, and social affairs, namely the importance of contribution and accuracy of the analysis and presentation of the paper. Admission decisions are made based on an independent review process which provides a very constructive and prompt evaluation of submitted manuscripts.

Abstract

Generation Z has become a dominant workforce cohort, whose expectations for openness, flexibility, and meaningful work often intersect with the multicultural and multigenerational dynamics of local workplaces. This study aims to examine how Generation Z employees in West Kalimantan socially adapt to organizational environments shaped by the interethnic TIDAYU (Dayak–Malay–Chinese) context. Using an exploratory qualitative design, the research involved 18 participants aged 18–28 years from the service, retail, education, and MSME sectors in Pontianak, Singkawang, and Ketapang. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews and analyzed using Braun and Clarke’s thematic analysis, generating 138 codes, 24 subcategories, and three themes. The findings revealed three dominant adaptation patterns: communication adjustment, learning from senior workers, and seeking clarity and meaning in work. Organizational factors—particularly open leadership and flexible work structures–significantly facilitate adaptation, while authoritarian leadership and rigid structures hinder it. Peer support emerged as the strongest community factor accelerating Gen Z’s social adjustment, supported by multicultural workplace values fostering acceptance and comfort. The study concludes that Gen Z’s adaptation is an interactive, context-dependent process shaped by personal strategies, organizational culture, and social dynamics of TIDAYU communities. These insights emphasize that successful adaptation occurs when organizational values align with the generational needs and local cultural norms. The findings highlight the importance of adopting inclusive leadership, establishing flexible work systems, and strengthening cross-generational and cross-cultural engagement to enhance Gen Z integration and workplace harmony in multicultural regions.

Abstract

Pesantren and their Kitab Kuning tradition are widely framed as pillars of religious moderation in Indonesia, yet this dominant narrative often overlooks the internal diversity and ambivalence of classical juridical and theological discourses. This study critically reexamines the assumption that Kitab Kuning teaching uniformly produces moderate Islam by analyzing how moderate and non-moderate statements coexist within authoritative texts and how their vocabularies and epistemological orientations shape interpretations in plural societies. Using qualitative content analysis, the authors reviewed a corpus of widely used pesantren editions and purposively selected classical works that explicitly contain statements on tolerance, exclusion, and delegitimization, focusing on Fath al-Mu‘in, I‘ānat al-Thalibin, al-Majmu‘ Sharh al-Muhadhdhab, Sharh Sahih Muslim, and Kifayat al-Akhyar (with complementary reference to other texts). Textual segments were coded as “moderate” when they acknowledged legitimate plurality or used inclusive legal language, and as “non-moderate” when they employed categorical delegitimation (e.g., heresy or unbelief). The interpretation was then situated within historical and epistemological frames (bayani, ‘irfani, burhani) and reread for contemporary relevance. Results show two recurring and systematic patterns: inclusive-juridical markers such as qala fulan/qila, khilafan, qaulani, wajh/aujuh that normalize disagreement and epistemic openness, and exclusionary markers such as bid‘ah qabihah/munkarah, ahl al-dalalah, la yashihhu, and kufr that invalidate practices or groups (including intra-madhhab and inter-madhhab exclusions and condemnations of certain ritual innovations and beliefs). Exclusionary judgments appeared predominantly in strongly bayani-oriented fiqh and theological formulations, whereas pluralizing vocabularies were more frequent in ‘irfani or burhani tendencies. The findings imply that moderation in pesantren is not inherent in Kitab Kuning but emerges through selective, critical, and contextual reading. Religious moderation programs should therefore strengthen critical hermeneutics and reader responsibility. The study is limited by selective sampling and does not comprehensively map socio-political contestations.

Abstract

This article explores how three state-sponsored Qurʾānic exegeses-al-Muntakhab (Egypt), al-Muyassar (Saudi Arabia), and al-Wajiz (Indonesia)-conceptualize the essence of religion and articulate models of interreligious relations. These tafsirs are selected because they are produced by official state institutions and therefore reflect the ideological orientations and religious policies of their respective governments. Employing a qualitative comparative method, this study combines theoretical hermeneutics to reconstruct the historical meanings of the tafsirs with philosophical hermeneutics to assess their relevance for contemporary Indonesian society. The analysis focuses on three dimensions: methodological identity, the conception of religion in terms of unity and diversity, and approaches to interreligious relations encompassing dialogue, social harmony, and cooperation. The findings demonstrate that although the three tafsirs share fundamental theological premises-such as monotheism, prophetic continuity, and moral universality-they differ significantly in interpretive orientation. Al-Muntakhab reflects a rational-moderate Azhari tradition, al-Muyassar adopts a scripturalist Salafi framework with exclusivist tendencies, while al-Wajiz advances an inclusive and accommodative hermeneutic aligned with Indonesia’s pluralistic ethos and the principle of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika. This study argues that state-sponsored tafsir functions not merely as a religious text but as an ideological instrument that shapes public religious discourse. When oriented toward justice, equality, and interreligious cooperation, such tafsir can contribute meaningfully to religious moderation in plural societies.

Abstract

   This study examines the behavior of policing-relevant administrative indicators in Ukraine across 2019–2024, spanning pre-escalation conditions and the period following the large-scale escalation of armed conflict beginning in February 2022. Using a measurement-aware, mixed-method descriptive design, we compile indicators across five domains: crime-processing backbone (registered and solved crimes), domestic-violence reporting, missing-persons caseload, institutional workload/service demand, and public trust in police. The evidence shows a clear discontinuity around 2022, where several domains stop behaving like extensions of pre-war patterns and begin reflecting a different measurement environment. Registered and solved crimes reverse direction after 2021 and expand through 2024, while the clearance proxy rises overall but does not move smoothly. Domestic-violence reports show volatility followed by post-2021 elevation, missing-persons magnitudes expand in post-2022 snapshots, and trust softens from 2023 to 2024. Cross-domain comparison reveals both convergence (multiple indicators shifting together around 2022) and divergence (clearance and trust moving differently from crime volumes). We interpret these patterns through an institutional-output lens: observed series are jointly shaped by changing reporting conditions, recording practices, coverage, and case processing constraints, not just by underlying prevalence. The study demonstrates a crisis-ready approach where indicators are reported faithfully to their public form, discontinuities are made explicit, and conclusions avoid over-claiming. Recommendations include pairing numbers with coverage/definitional metadata, treating cross-domain divergence as an audit trigger, and strengthening multi-source triangulation to distinguish changes in harm from changes in measurement.
