Aim Jurnal Penelitian is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to publishing high-quality research on various aspects of religiosity, Islam, and culture in Indonesia. As a predominantly Muslim country, Indonesia is home to a diverse range of local cultures. Islam, which originated outside of Indonesia, brought with it not only religious doctrines but also cultural influences. The interaction between Islam— as the majority religion— and the unique cultural identity of Indonesia is a central theme of the journal. The journal focuses on exploring the dynamics between Islam and Indonesian identity, examining how the two intersect and influence each other. Scope The dynamics between Islam and Indonesian identity enable a diverse range of scientific studies. Therefore, the scope of Jurnal Penelitian includes issues related to: - The relationship between Islam and local culture in Indonesia, - Islamic movements vis-a-vis the state in Indonesia, - Mainstreaming religious moderation in Indonesia, - Islamic education and appreciation of local culture in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to elucidate the role of the state as the primary actor in managing the extensive use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the realm of da’wah (calling others to practice the teachings of Islam), which has both positive and negative consequences. The identified negative impacts include the delegitimization of religious teachings and the authority of religious figures. This research utilizes a literature review approach, collecting and analyzing data from various sources such as books, websites, articles, and newspapers related to the application of AI in da’wah. The findings indicate that state intervention is crucial in regulating AI use through three main mechanisms: first, regulation; second, strengthening the roles of relevant actors; and third, supervision. Without proper regulation, the use of AI in da’wah can become unmanageable, leading to disinformation and the erosion of authoritative references. Therefore, this study underscores the importance of state involvement in ensuring that AI is employed ethically and effectively to support da’wah activities in Indonesia. These findings affirm that the state must actively regulate AI to maintain the integrity of religious teachings and the authority of religious figures, as well as to fully harness the positive potential of AI in the context of da’wah.

Abstract

This research examines the complexity of Rohingya refugee integration in Aceh using a qualitative approach and the social religious phenomenology method. The main focus is on the interaction between international law, local norms, religion, mass media, and the social dynamics that influence refugee reception and integration. Data collection methods include in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis, with informants comprising religious leaders, local government officials, Rohingya refugees, and local journalists. Thematic and narrative analyses are employed to identify and interpret relevant themes related to the application of the non-refoulement principle, the role of Islam, the influence of mass media, and the psychological well-being of refugees. The findings reveal the complexity of Rohingya refugee integration in Aceh, shaped by the interplay of international law, local norms, religion, mass media, and social dynamics. Legal pluralism theory highlights a gap between the non-refoulement principle and Aceh's local wisdom. Religious solidarity theory explains the initial drive for refugee acceptance, though collective historical experiences contribute to resistance. Agenda-setting theory uncovers media bias. The study’s limitations suggest the need for further research, particularly through a comparative approach to understand effective strategies for integrating international law with local norms.

Abstract

Various efforts have been made by the leadership of Islamic Higher Education institutions to prevent the infiltration of radical ideologies on their campuses. These efforts range from internalizing religious moderation to monitoring deviant student organizations, both of which have been intensively pursued by institutional leaders. However, since the declaration of these initiatives, there has been no empirical evaluation to assess whether students in Islamic Higher Education, particularly in Papua and West Papua, have a proper understanding of the concept of moderate Islam. This gap could hinder policymakers' ability to effectively combat the spread of radical ideas. This study employs a mixed-method approach, surveying 1,309 students from three Islamic Higher Education institutions in West Papua: IAIN Sorong, STIT Yapis Manokwari, and STAI Al Mahdi Fakfak. The quantitative component consists of surveys designed to evaluate key indicators of religious moderation, including tolerance, anti-violence attitudes, and national commitment—critical factors that influence pro-violent extremism views in Islamic Higher Education. Additionally, qualitative studies were conducted through focus group discussions with selected key informants to gain deeper insight into the students' understanding, actions, and efforts to build moderation capacity. The study’s findings revealed that, although students' knowledge of religious moderation is relatively high, the factors of tolerance and anti-violence attitudes are strong predictors of pro-violent extremism. Therefore, it is essential to strengthen the role of "moderation houses" from an institutional perspective, and integrated programs must serve as the foundation for building religious moderation capacity, particularly for students in Islamic Higher Education.

Abstract

This present study aims to explore the phenomenon of the Qur’an recitation by employing a ‘Kempekan’ model, which is transmitted at Pesantren (Islamic boarding school) Babakan. Kempekan is a style of tartil (a proper manner) recitation of the Qur’an promoted at Pesantren Kempek. A qualitative approach was designed in this ethnographic study. The data were collected through observation and interviews. The findings demonstrate two important points obtained from the living Qur’an of Kempekan. Firstly, the phenomenon of Kempekan which has emerged amid the pesantren not only to maintain the originality of the Qur’an recitation, but also to shape a new tradition of both its transmission and transformation patterns. It can be noticed from the development of the practice of today’s Qur’an recitation in Indonesia. Secondly, the surge of Kempekan has pervaded a plethora of cultural aspects occurring in Babakan. This can be evidenced from communities in the so-called Region III Cirebon, namely: Majalengka, Kuningan, Indramayu, and Cirebon, who attended the khatm al-Qur’an. The transmission and transformation of Kempekan raise the dialectical model of the Qur’an and its distinctive culture. The recitation of the Qur’an is not only limited to the rituals of ubuddiyah (religious merits), but also impacts on aspects of culture, economy, the structure of society, and a new model of piety.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the values of nationalism materials in Islamic boarding schools. So far there has been a judgement believing that Islamic boarding schools are the center of radicalism in Indonesia. The militancy and aggressiveness of radicals are considered as the impact of education carried out in Islamic boarding schools. This study refutes research findings that assess Islamic boarding schools as the basis of radicalism. Through a study of the curriculum, books and teachings carried out in Islamic boarding schools, as well as the values of nationalism and tolerance, this research was carried out with work principles and library research methods. The data is collected from literature, especially the results of research, scientific publications and developing discourses related to pesantren and nationalism. The results of this study indicate that radicalism and terrorism do not develop in Islamic boarding schools. Instead of teaching radicalism and terrorism, the teachings in pesantren shave become the seed of the nationalism. Historical traces show that pesantren are an important part of the birth of the state, becoming a stronghold against colonialism. In the context of a multi-cultural, racial and religious nation, Islamic boarding schools not only teach the value and direction of religion, but also become a strategic media in instilling nationalism values, respecting each other and respecting differences, among persons with the same faith, and even to non-Muslims.

Abstract

This study analyzes the ritual community as an association of people who try to get closer to God through religious rituals. The focus of the community is not to carry out joint rituals but on studies, sharing religious experiences, and how to increase religious obedience. There are two types of ritual communities; those formed by religious leadership and by similar interests in studying religion. This study examines the second community, by examining the values, principles, and beliefs that unite community members. Research is needed to understand religious phenomena, increase understanding, and religious tolerance. The study was conducted by library study of ritual community, in this case, the community of Salat Khusuk, and Emile Durkheim's theory contained in The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life. Descriptions, interpretations, historical continuity, internal coherence, and holistic are methodical elements in this study. The results of the study show that the attachment and social relations of the community are built by the value of identity and inward solidarity inherent in each member of the ritual community.

Abstract

This article discusses the ideological contestation of the two mass organizations, Muhammadiyah and Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), that are the spearhead of the two paradigms in determining the beginning of the month of qamariah. Hisab is initiated by Muhammadiyah and rukyat is pioneered by Nahdlatul Ulama (NU). These two paradigms are the cause of the emergence of tension conflict due to the non-uniformity of the method of determining the beginning of the qamariah month in Indonesia. By using a power relations approach and reading of religious commodification, this article concludes that fragmentation of religious authority has given rise to a real phenomenon in the midst of society in the form of ideological political contestation played by two large mass organizations in Indonesia in determining the beginning of the qamariah month, NU and Muhammadiyah. The conception of power relations with the government is a problem that is often used as a basis for maintaining ideology and belief in a paradigm that has long been built. Moreover, religious issues drawn in ideological interests have led to a layer of group fanaticism which often makes religion a commodification of pragmatic interests.
