Abstract

This study aims to see the idea of religious nationalism K.H. A. Wahid Hasyim on Islam and Indonesia. K.H. A. Wahid Hasyim is an interesting figure in the midst of tug-of-war between the interests of making Indonesia an Islamic state and a secular state at the beginning of the founding of Indonesia, the idea of ​​KH. A. Wahid Hasyim became the middle ground. This study raises the main question, namely how the relationship between religion and the state according to K.H. Wahid Hasyim in the Indonesian context. This research is based on text reading and had analyzed by content analysis. This study concludes that KH. A. Wahid Hasyim is consistent in Islamic thought and prioritizes the unity and integrity of the nation. According to K.H. A. Wahid Hasyim, the state serves the religious needs of the people in accordance with the Pancasila basis. In matters of an individual nature (private), the government should not interfere. Meanwhile, the state may regulate issues of a social nature (public). Kiai Wahid is of the opinion that the secularistic relationship between religion and the state is only a theory, and has never actually happened. Islam still needs the state to protect the freedom of its citizens to practice their religion, while the state needs religious legitimacy to make a set of regulations in order to achieve benefit. Thoughts K.H. A. Wahid Hasyim belongs to the category of thinkers who relate religion and state as a mutualistic symbiotic relationship, where state and religion support each other. On the same dimension, its relevance lies in its idea of ​​prioritizing common interests over personal interests. Kiai Wahid's idea of​​religious nationalism is still relevant today. Especially in the context of maintaining the relationship between the state and religion, and giving the government a share to participate in efforts to facilitate its citizens in practicing their religion.

Abstract

The paradigms of world religions often influence Indonesia's general understanding of religion. Indigenous religious practices are often labeled as animistic practices. The adherents of the Indigenous religion are often regarded as worshipers of trees, mountains, and the like. Such is the case with adherents of the Indigenous religion in Java Island (Kejawen). From the results of a literature study that utilizes various literature and paradigms related to the existence of religion in Indonesia, this study tries to look further into the position of Kejawen in the Indonesian constitution. The results of this study found that Kejawen adherents still experience many discriminatory actions due to the lack of comprehensive understanding of the Indonesian people regarding the importance of symbolic recognition and the resources of Kejawen teachings. In addition, Kejawen adherents also feel they have a historical burden because they are not considered adherents of a religion "recognized" by the State. Kejawen is often associated with occult and shamanic traditions. The Indonesian constitution clearly states that the State must be fair in guaranteeing and giving freedom to every citizen to choose, adhere to, and practice their religions or beliefs. Kejawen, as part of the Indigenous religion, should also be protected and guaranteed its rights and freedoms and placed in an equal position with other religions.

Abstract

Previous studies claimed that arranged marriages occur in underdeveloped societies, among the uneducated and low social classes. However, in Indonesia, especially South Sulawesi, arranged marriages also occur among young educated Muslim women. This study aims to answer why young educated Muslim women accept arranged marriages by their parents or families instead of marrying their boyfriends. This study also elaborated further on the issue of their feelings and experiences, such as feelings after marriage, dating experiences, and the reasons their parents matched them. This study used a postcolonial approach to analyze why young educated Muslim women accept arranged marriages. By conducting in-depth interviews with five young educated Muslim women who have married through the arranged process, this study found several reasons why young educated Muslim women accept arranged marriages, including the family system, religious teachings, economic considerations, and personal reasons that they consciously choose

Abstract

There is a trend of increasing Islamism after the 1998 Reformation Era in Indonesia. The previous studies reveal that it is caused, among others, by the weakness of the state, the decline of the authority of moderate Islamic groups, and the use of social media as da’wahchannels by Islamist groups. This studi is qualitative-based research by employing descriptive method and social content analysis of social media. The data were collected through observations (field study) of the election process in the Solo area, from social media, and in-depth interviews with academicians of UIN Surakarta, the initiators, and participants of the LISaN program. This study revealed that the low quality of political education, manipulative information spread on social media, and lack of autonomous political participation by the Muslim millennials have also contributed to the rise of Islamism. Therefore, the Islamic literacy for courteous and tolerant behavior (Literasi Islam Santun dan toleran, LISaN) is necessary to counter the Islamist movement. The LISaN movement which take form a noisy tolerant majority can be a means of values reproduction and encourage individual participation in political and religious affairs, in a polite and tolerant manner.

Abstract

Throughout history, the activity of interpreting the Qur’an can be carried out either orally or through writing alone or alltogether, resulting a what so called a repeated interpretation. This article seeks to shed a light on the last mentioned type of commentary that belongs to M. Quraish Shihab, a leading mufassir whose Tafsir Al-Misbah was a reiterpreted on his oral interpretation in the program “Kajian Tafsir Al-Mishbah” on Metro TV. As samples, his commentary on QS. Al-Qalam: 1-7 is chosen. Using a critical content and comparative analysis, this study concluded that the transformation of Shihab’s commentary from written to oral form did happen through several innovations and adjustments, in terms of content and display. Thus, Shihab’s role as a skillfull preacher is still obvious in his writings although the addressed audience then becomes vague. Several factors determine the occurrence of innovation and adjustment of M. Quraish Shihab’s interpretation, namely the role of Quraish Shihab in his written interpretation as originally an exegete turned into a preacher in his oral interpretation. In addition, the context of Tafsir Al-Misbah which is intended for the wider community is different from his oral interpretation with thepresence of audiences in a more specific background.

Abstract

This study examines the response of the women’s majelis taklimin Surakarta to the Islamist movement, through philanthropic activities.This study is focused on interviewing the congregations and the administrators of three majelis taklim-Al Husna, Humaira, and Da'wah Squad. I argue that majelis taklimis a space to express women’s subjectivities and pieties. This study shows that there are divided philanthropic activities at the group and individual level.At the group (majelis) level, especially at Al Husna, there is a potential for expansion of the Islamist movement proven by their support of the Islamist group's philanthropy. Da'wah Squad and Humaira shows a different response in limiting Islamism by organizing independent and creative philanthropy that targets wider beneficiaries. At the individual level, some administrators and congregations of the three majelis have shown their potential for narrowing the Islamist movement with different variations. This research contributes to presenting the women’s philanthropy within women’s piety movement in the context of emerging Islamism in Surakarta.

Abstract

This article aims to expand the discussion of the identity of piety in the web series with the Islamic genre, Ustad Milenial, which airs on WeTV and Iflix. Identity is a crucial problem in social life. In the web series, the pious identity of a muslim is different from the identity of piety shown in previous Islamic popular cinema, both in terms of story plots, characters, and symbols used in building a pious identity. The focus of the discussion in this article is how the identity of piety is built in this web series, and why is the identity of piety in this web series described in such a way? Based on a qualitative approach with a constructivist paradigm, and discourse analysis, I argue that there is an alternative to the identity of piety depicted in the Ustad Milenial web series. The results of this study indicate that the identity of piety in the Ustad Milenial web series is constructed through the appearance of youth muslims who are more trendy and hits, the noble ideals of a muslim in maintaining Islam, a strict religious education background for an authority, devotion and affection for parents, religious knowledge of youth muslim, the use of digital technology as a medium of da'wah, love stories that are identical with young people, and the inter-religious tolerance.

Abstract

The study of al-Jahiz among researchers and historians of the classical Islam has shed more light not only on the man and his intellectual engagement but also on the general Islamic intellectual history, especially in the ninth century Bagdad, the capital city of the ‘Abbasid kingdom. This article examines how al-Jahiz, as an enthusiast debater, dialectician, and polemicist, engaged himself in debates concerning the virtues of ‘Ali ibn Abi Thalib and his caliphate status. This is a literature study of al-Jahiz’s works, complemented by secondary relevant sources. This study reveals that in debating this particular issue which had been highly controversial by his time, al-Jahiz differed from both his fellow Mu‘tazila thinkers and hadith transmitters, and even argued against ijma’,the consensus argument, which was and is still regarded as undisputed argument by many Islamic law scholars. His intellectual bravery then allowed him to freely articulate his ideas and stand as an independent and original thinker.

Abstract

This study aims to see the study of the Qur'an in Indonesia during the years 2015 to 2021 through dissertations at UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta, UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta, UIN Alauddin Makassar, UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya and UIN Walisongo Semarang. Historically, the five institutions have provided doctoral programs for a long time and are influential in producing Islamic knowledge in Indonesia. This study seeks to map the typology of the study, the issue being discussed, and the methodology developed. The data collection process was carried out by entering the college repository, mapping the results of existing dissertations and analyzing them. This study shows that throughout 2015-2020, there were 78 dissertations discussing various issues. While the study typology shows that the existing dissertation is dominated by 37 leaders' studies (47.43%) followed by the Study of Thematic Qur'an as many as 23 pieces (29.48%), the Ulumul Qur'an study of 10 pieces (12.82%) and the study of the Qur'an in everyday life as many as 8 pieces (10.26%). Typology of this study shows the development of methodology in the discourse of Quranic studies, although it is still dominated by the aspects of thematic Qur'anic thinking and studies.

Abstract

This paper offers a new reading of register polarization in two types of translations (narrative and gandul/interlinear) and the tafsīr part of al-Ibrīz li-Ma’rifat Tafsīr al-Qur’ān al-‘Azīz by Kiai Bisri Musthafa. A close reading of the narrative translation and the tafsīr requires the identification of every word comprising the speech to identify the speech register. In order to recognize the register of thegandul/interlinear translation, one must put into one’s perspective the tripartite components and properly put them into consideration. Bearing this in mind, I found that Kiai Bisri uses the register of ngoko lugu to address the audience in both parts of the narrative translation and tafsīr. In the gandul translation, one can barely identify the moment in which Kiai Bisri addresses the audience. However, I found that the very register of ngoko lugu is not exclusively exhausting the spaces. In many places the register of krama and krama inggil heavily flavor the dough. This polarization implies that the author-audience relationship is more likely that of the kiai-santri in the Islamic science class (pedagogical) instead of the kiai-congregation in the pengajian (public religious teaching, thus da’wa).
