Abstract

In Indonesia, the lives of retired women and technology are often overlooked. They are a group that is vulnerable to the digital divide. This study explores the digital technology asset into the everyday lives of retired women living in the Rewwin Residence Community in Waru, Sidoarjo, Indonesia. This study aims to understand how digital devices and platforms support and enhance spiritual and cultural practices in this community. This study uses qualitative methodologies with the approach used in ABCD/Asset Base Community Development to find and utilize their assets. The findings highlight the digital assets’ sense of asset ownership, physical, social, and human assets, and the wealth of religious and spiritual content. Understanding asset ownership has bridged and facilitated access to religious content, strengthened and fostered a sense of togetherness and belonging among their community, and offers insights into how digital practices can complement and enrich traditional cultural and spiritual practices in their everyday life stages. This study contributes to a broader understanding of contemporary Indonesian society’s relationship between assets, technology, aging, and cultural sustainability.

Abstract

whether his interpretations are grounded in a coherent epistemological framework or primarily driven by intuitive reflection. The analysis draws on Rudolf Bultmann's hermeneutic theory of demythology as a comparative lens, given its focus on reinterpreting mythological elements to address existential concerns, particularly in the context of discussions about the future rather than historical facts. The research employs a literature-based approach, utilizing primary sources such as Hosein's works on eschatology and Bultmann's writings on demythology, alongside secondary sources from relevant academic literature. The findings reveal notable methodological parallels between Hosein’s interpretations and Bultmann’s demythologization, particularly in their shared use of hermeneutic techniques. However, a key distinction lies in their epistemological foundations: while Bultmann approaches the New Testament through a Christian existentialist lens, Hosein’s interpretations are deeply rooted in Sufi epistemology and his perspective as a Muslim scholar interpreting the Qur'an.

Abstract

Social media has become a platform for forming virtual communities based on shared interests, including religious expression. It also serves as a forum for exchanging ideas, often leading to the development of distinct online cultures without direct interaction. Netnography, a digital adaptation of ethnography, provides a framework for studying these cultural phenomena. This study examines how shalawat (praise for the Prophet) is shared via social media and how some Arabic love songs are mistakenly perceived as shalawat by online audiences. The research aims to analyze netizens’ responses to these songs and to explore the semantic content of the lyrics to clarify their meaning. Using a qualitative approach with a netnographic method, data were collected through online observation, interviews, and documentation. The study followed five stages: developing the research framework, selecting the object, collecting data, analyzing findings, and reporting results. The findings indicate that some users misunderstand the lyrics of Arabic love songs featured in majlis shalawat settings, assuming them to be religious chants. Semantic analysis was conducted to distinguish between love-themed lyrics and genuine shalawat, shedding light on how religious expression and popular culture may intersect and be misinterpreted in digital spaces.

Abstract

This study explores the role of Ngaji Tasawuf Online in preserving classical Islamic knowledge, focusing on the digital transmission of Ihya’ Ulumuddin by Imam Ghazali, led by Ulil Abshar Abdalla. In the context of advancing information technology, digital recitation emerges as an adaptive method for sustaining spiritually rich traditional teachings. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through documentation studies and observations of online sessions shared via platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and Spotify. The findings indicate that online recitation enhances accessibility, particularly for individuals constrained by time and location. Moreover, social media facilitates real-time interaction between teacher and participants, fostering a dynamic, though virtual, learning environment. While challenges remain in preserving the depth of classical pedagogy in digital formats, online recitation effectively maintains spiritual traditions in a way that aligns with modern life. Ultimately, it serves not only as a means of knowledge transmission but also as a platform for reinforcing the relevance and depth of classical Islamic teachings today.

Abstract

The growing use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in religious communication has introduced new dynamics in Islamic preaching (Da’wah) as it raises questions about its linguistic, persuasive, and theological qualities compared to traditional human-led discourse. This study investigates the rhetorical characteristics of AI-generated Islamic messages by comparing them with sermons delivered by recognized Muslim scholars. The aim is to understand how AI influences the structure, authority, and effectiveness of religious messaging in the digital era. Employing a comparative rhetorical analysis, this study examines a purposive sample of AI-generated Da’wah texts and human-delivered sermons addressing similar religious themes. The analysis is grounded in Arabic rhetorical theory, Aristotelian persuasion (ethos, pathos, logos), and digital media theory to assess differences in content delivery and audience engagement. Findings show that while both forms draw on Qur’anic verses and Hadith, human preachers establish authority through years of study and community trust, whereas AI relies solely on textual citation, often defaulting to dominant interpretations. Human-led Da’wah features storytelling, emotional appeal, and context-specific reasoning, fostering deeper audience connection. In contrast, AI discourse is more neutral, informational, and lacks adaptive nuance. This study concludes that although AI can support the spread of Islamic knowledge, it falls short in replicating the rhetorical richness and relational depth of human Da’wah. These findings offer practical insights for scholars, developers, and policymakers navigating the intersection of religion and technology.

Abstract

This study investigates how digital communities perceive and respond to the increasing cases of sexual and physical violence in pesantren, with a focus on viral incidents in Lombok. The research specifically aims to examine two core aspects: the formation of public opinion in digital spaces and the emerging demands for institutional reform in pesantren. Using a qualitative approach with a netnographic method, the study analyzes social media content, including comments, videos, and online discourse from platforms such as TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram. Data were processed using the Huberman and Miles analysis technique. The findings reveal that viral cases have significantly damaged the pesantren’s public image, leading to widespread skepticism about their credibility and safety. The study concludes that pesantren must adopt transparent governance and proactive communication strategies to restore public trust. This research provides critical insight into how digital narratives shape institutional reform in Islamic education.
