Abstract

This article explores the practice of symbolization, investigating how flags acquire specific characteristics that enable their use as symbols. The main objective of this study is to describe the Macan Ali flag, with a particular focus on its connection to mysticism and Islam within the context of Javanese culture, specifically in Cirebon. This study reveals that the Macan Ali, when viewed as a symbol, can be interpreted as a concept that manifests as an entity embodying logical-analytical qualities. A comprehensive understanding of the philosophy of symbols allows for the harmonious integration of literal and figurative meanings within the Macan Ali symbol. Furthermore, it plays a pivotal role in harmonizing the two distinct concepts of Javanese mysticism and Islam. This synthesis underscores the multifaceted nature of symbols and their capacity to bridge diverse cultural and religious paradigms.

Abstract

This study explores the Maccera Tasi tradition in Bonepute Village, Luwu Regency, South Sulawesi, examining its intersection with Islam and local culture. Recently, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) of South Sulawesi deemed this long-standing tradition as shirk, or polytheistic, asserting that it contradicts Islamic law. This declaration was made by the MUI’s fatwa commission following public reports about rituals involving offerings of livestock heads, such as cows, buffalo, or goats, or other food into the ocean. In response to these reports, the Regional MUI team conducted a field research whose findings were reported to the South Sulawesi MUI. This report served as the basis for the aforementioned announcement. While some perceive the Maccera Tasi practice as an expression of gratitude for the harvest, others label it as shirk (polytheism). The present study employed field research, utilizing qualitative descriptive analysis. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The research participants included religious leaders, traditional leaders, community leaders and local government representatives from Bonepute. The findings of this research suggest that religion and local traditions can coexist, fostering social cohesion without infringing upon Islamic law. This harmonious coexistence encourages the Bonepute community, particularly fishermen, to express gratitude for the blessings bestowed by Allah SWT. This gratitude is manifested through prayer, the release of seeds, and marine fish food, which are interpreted as forms of environmental stewardship. Therefore, this study contends that the perception of the Maccera Tasi practice as polytheistic is inaccurate. Instead, this practice represents an Islamic expression of preserving local culture through a process of religious and cultural assimilation.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the concept of miasma and the spiritual implications of earthquakes as depicted in the Naskah Cerita Gempa (The Story of Earthquake) manuscript found in Ambon, “The Story of Earthquake” is a manuscript from the collection of Husain Hatuwe. It is cataloged in both the Ambon Manuscript Catalog and the Religious Catalog of the Makassar Research and Development Center, under the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia. The manuscript has been digitized through a collaborative effort between the Pernaskahan Nusantara Foundation and the Faculty of Cultural Sciences at the University of Indonesia, in partnership with the Endangered Archives Programme (EAP) of the British Library. The digitized version of “The Story of Earthquake” manuscript can be accessed online via the EAP British Library’s website using the code EAP276/7/10. This study employs a textual analysis adopting Han-Liang Chang’s disaster semiotics methodology which categorizes disasters into three phases: natural events, interpretations and effects. The findings of this study reveal that natural events, in the form of weather changes associated with miasma, have a significant impact on all forms of life, including animals, plants and humans. These changes lead to damage and death, prompting individuals to seek protection. This research underscores the profound spiritual and physical effects of natural disasters as interpreted through the lens of the Naskah Cerita Gempa manuscript.

Abstract

This study focuses on the sa’o ngaza, or named houses, within the Ngadha heritage in Flores, Indonesia. These named houses are categorized into three types: the source house (sa’o pu’u), derived houses (sa’o dhoro) and the tip house (sa’o lobo). The central research question explores whether the inherited names of these traditional houses carry religious significance. The study employed a qualitative descriptive approach, guiding the methods of data collection, analysis and presentation. Through the lens of cultural studies, underpinned by process philosophy and process theology, a semiotic analysis of the names ‘source house’ (sa’o pu’u), derived houses for the descendants (sa’o dhoro) and the tip house (sa’o lobo) reveals meanings and values imbued with religious concepts. These concepts, related to the nature of God in local traditions, are manifested as ‘The Beginning’, ‘The End’, and ‘The Descending to be Involved’. These are referred to as the triadic beautiful names of God, or Dewa Saga Telu. The findings of this research present Dewa Saga Telu as a semina verbi of the mysteries of the Triune God (Trinity) in accordance with local traditions. Concurrently, the findings reveal the nature of one God (Dewa Sengata), who eternally exists as three distinct persons: God Beyond (Dewa Wawo), God with us (Dewa Sa’o), and God within us (Dewa Ja’o). These findings can be interpreted as a praeparatio evangelica about the mysteries of the Trinity, fostering an intercultural dialogue between Catholic doctrine and the local cultural heritage among the Ngadha people of Flores, Indonesia.

Abstract

Coexistence is one of the concepts that has received significant attention in light of contemporary societal changes to achieve the stability of societies and the coexistence of its members in harmony and peace, in addition to its importance at the level of relations between countries. From these starting points, this research aims, through the use of the descriptive analytical method, to shed light on literary texts from the contemporary era that call for coexistence and seek to clarify the elements that unite people and do not separate them based on race or sect. The research tries to answer the following questions: What is the concept of coexistence? What are the images of coexistence in contemporary Arabic poetry? Who are the most important poets who have employed the values of coexistence in their literary works? The first chapter deals with coexistence, its foundations, principles, components, and fruits. The second chapter deals with the patterns of coexistence in contemporary Arabic poetry. It is worth noting that a follower of the texts of contemporary Arabic literature sees the value of coexistence present in various forms and images presented by writers in a way that agrees with their creativity and artistic vision, directly or implicitly. Literary texts play a significant role in establishing human concepts to ensure the establishment of the language of fruitful dialogue and the achievement of cultural and civilizational coexistence between human societies.

Abstract

Sḥaraf al-Anām is a prominent mawlīd text traditionally recited during the commemoration of Prophet Muhammad’s birth. This text enjoys widespread composition and utilization across the Muslim world, including Southeast Asia. The manuscript of Sḥaraf al-Anām is typically adorned with decorative ornaments encircling the text. This study investigates the ornamental illumination of two Sḥaraf al-Anām manuscripts housed in the EAP British Library and the Digital Collections of Leiden University Libraries. The former manuscript originates from Sri Lanka, while the provenance of the latter remains unidentified. Both manuscripts present Arabic text with interlinear Malay translations and are aesthetically decorated with diverse styles and patterns. The study analyzed the structural features, ornamental patterns and color designs of the illuminations in these manuscripts. It further explores the potential influences that may have contributed to the presence of such illuminations. This study found notable distinction as observed in the illumination characteristics between the Sḥaraf al-Anām in the EAP British Library collection and that in the Digital Collection of Leiden University Libraries. The comparison suggests that factors such as the provenance of the manuscripts, the artistic quality of the illuminator and the inherent creativity in the work may have contributed to this distinction. This study underscores the importance of these factors in understanding the diversity and richness of manuscript illumination in the Muslim world.

Abstract

The Bajau people, an indigenous group residing along the shores of the archipelago, primarily in Borneo and Celebes Islands, perceive their religiosity differently from other land-based or maritime societies. This paper aims to explore the dimensions of religiosity among the Bajau Samah in Kotabaru, South Kalimantan. This ethnographic research involved researchers participating in the community’s religious-cultural activities, such as the Ma’dupa and Menyurung rituals. The findings reveal that the Bajau Samah are inseparable from their sea and ancestors. These elements are not only their sources of livelihood and wisdom but also crucial ‘figures’ that shape their religiosity. Their experiences and thought processes regarding the sea and their ancestors manifest in various forms: religious feeling, religious belief, religious knowledge, religious practice, and religious effect. This study argues that while adat (customary law) and religion (Islam) are distinct domains, they collectively constitute the religiosity of the Bajau Samah, as evidenced in Kotabaru.

Abstract

Indonesia, with its diverse population, religions, ethnicities, and cultures, faces complex challenges in terms of religious harmony. This research examines the process of fostering religious harmony in village communities, which builds sociological wisdom, as practiced in Kasimpar village, Central Java.  Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The analysis employs Soerjono Soekanto's legal awareness theory. The findings reveal that the culture of tolerance practiced by the people of Kasimpar Village, characterized by high levels of ethnic, cultural, and religious plurality, is guided by the Kenambai Umbai philosophy (One heart, whole cheerful, work, achieve glory). This local wisdom has become the village's motto. The theoretical analysis shows that at the legal knowledge stage, the community recognizes that religious tolerance is not a differentiator among humans, but rather a matter of belief. At the legal understanding stage, the community understands that religious differences do not create sectarian divides. At the legal attitude stage, these differences foster mutual help and respect during worship. Finally, at the legal behavior stage, these differences enhance societal harmony, indicating that the people of Kasimpar Village have achieved legal awareness.

Abstract

As the oldest cosmopolitan city in Indonesia, Palembang has a diverse range of ethnic groups that interact on political, economic, and religious levels. Among these groups, the Sayyid Hadhrami community, descendants of the Prophet Muhammad who came from Hadramawt, South Yemen, actively preached Islam and engaged in trade in Palembang from the mid-18th century. While numerous studies have explored the Sayyid Hadrami's activities on the island of Java, few have focused on their role in Palembang. This article examines the political, economic, and religious of Sayyid Hadhrami in Palembang from the 18th to the 21st centuries. The study employs qualitative research using a historical approach. This study found that during the 18th – 19th centuries, the Sayyid Hadhrami served as clerics for Palembang propagators of Islam and intermediaries of Indian Ocean trade. Following the collapse of the Palembang sultanate in the 20th - 21st centuries, the Hadhrami community established their own religious regime. Central to their identity is their role in propagating Islam and their affiliation with the Tarekat Alawiyah, a Sufi Order originating from the Hadhrami Sayyids. Religious traditions in the Tarekat Alawiyah include Ziarah, Mawlid, and Haul. The Sayyid Hadhrami in Palembang Sucessfully transformed trade capital into religious capital to maintain their religious authority.
