Abstract

This research described the social construction of the belief system on the identity of the ghost Kuyang in Kalimantan. This research argues that ghost stories have constructed the ghost's identity of gender and place. The gender always represents the ghost as a woman while the place represents the Kuyang ghost as a Dayak or Malay tribe in Kalimantan. This research formulates how the Kuyang ghost story can establish a social construction of the belief system on identity in Kalimantan. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method by collecting data through storytelling in the community and on YouTube social media. The results of this study show that: 1) female ghost stories represent a patriarchal system for women; 2) the development of a belief system in local communities; 3) community responses through tradition and religion; and 4) social construction shapes the identity of Ghost Kuyang in Kalimantan. The development of the social construction of the belief system in the ghost of Kuyang can bring a new discourse on identity following ethnic, religious, and culture in Kalimantan.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate differences and correlations in engagement levels within university organizations among PMII members across Islamic State and private higher education institutions in Cirebon, as well as differences in their self-actualization. The research employs a quantitative approach with systematic random sampling. A sample of 285 participants was selected from a population of 1070 PMII members at these institutions with analysis techniques involving the Mann-Whitney U test for the first and second research questions, and Spearman’s correlation for the third. Results indicated a statistically significant difference in engagement levels within organizations between Islamic state and private higher education (U = 7193.500, z = -2.263, p = .024), suggesting higher engagement among Islamic state students. However, no significant difference was found in self-actualization levels between these groups (U = 5128, z = -.166, p = .868). Moreover, a strong positive correlation was observed between engagement levels within organizations and self-actualization among PMII members in both Islamic state and private institutions (rs = .525, p < .001).

Abstract

This study investigates the active participation of European women, particularly British citizens, in ISIS's operations and propaganda, which challenges traditional gender norms and perceptions of Muslim women in Western societies. The research used postmodern feminist theory to delve into the multifaceted motivations driving these women—from feelings of alienation and promises of empowerment to ideological aspirations—and examines their roles as recruiters, propagandists, and enforcers within the al-Khansaa Brigade. Specific cases, such as Aqsa Mahmood, illustrate the strategic use of social media to romanticize life in the caliphate while simultaneously exploiting women through constructs like "sexual jihad." The phenomenon reflects a paradox where agency is wielded within deeply patriarchal structures, perpetuating both empowerment and subjugation. Additionally, the paper explores the societal factors fueling radicalization, including Islamophobia and systemic discrimination, and highlights the challenges of reintegration for women returning to their home countries. By addressing the gendered dynamics of terrorism, this study underscores the importance of inclusive counterterrorism strategies that dismantle extremist narratives and foster integration.

Abstract

Laskar Hezbollah which consists of scholars and students have a major contribution in maintaining the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI). However, the role of Hezbollah in the historiography of Indonesian history has not yet received an adequate place in the struggle to defend the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia when compared to the role of the army and other national parties. This study was conducted to answer the above problems so that it can enrich the writing of Indonesian National HistoryThis study uses a historical research methodology with a sociological and theological approach. The sources in the study will be presented in a descriptive analytical manner, both primary and secondary. Then in looking at the problem, the theory or concept of collective behavior is used in the context of nationalism and patriotism.There is also a finding of this study that based on facts and field data Hezbollah has a major contribution in defending the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. Thus, this study wants to complement the reference works of Indonesian history that have not placed the role of ulama and santri in significantly defending the Unitary Republic of Indonesia. Second, this study wants to show that the ulama and santri have a high love for their country so that their nationalism and patriotism cannot be doubted. In other words, this study wants to strengthen the study conducted by Musa (2001) which concluded that there was a very close relationship between religion and nationalism. Third, national unity from various elements of the nation became an important factor in a revolution so that Indonesia succeeded in getting its sovereignty from the hands of the Dutch in late 1949 and early 1950. In this context, the role of Muslims cannot be ignored in fulfilling the independence of the Republic of Indonesia.

Abstract

Digital controversies around Al-Māʾidah 5:51 and the Ahok case have sharpened struggles over Qur’anic authority in Indonesia’s public sphere. This article examines how the progressive portal Islami.co constructs religious legitimacy and counter-narratives in this context. Using qualitative critical discourse analysis, it analyzes fourteen opinion and expository articles on verse politicization, Qur’an translation, and digital daʿwah, applying Fairclough’s three-dimensional model and van Leeuwen’s legitimation categories. The study finds three mechanisms of legitimation: (1) semantic reframing of key terms such as awliyāʾ/wali; (2) intertextual authority through selective use of classical tafsīr, fiqh, and contemporary scholarship; and (3) moral evaluation foregrounding justice, maṣlaḥah, and plural coexistence. These strategies underwrite counter-narratives that decouple voting for non-Muslim leaders from accusations of betrayal, critique terjemahisme and post-truth uses of state translations, and oppose Islam marah with an ethic of Islam ramah. The findings show how progressive Islamic counter-publics linguistically contest conservative monopolies over Qur’anic discourse.
