Abstract

تركز هذه المقالة على سؤالين رئيسيين: كيف هي الذاكرة التاريخية الجماعية لوونغ سيليك (wong cilik) فيما يتعلق بالتنافس الانتخابي في الانتخابات الرئاسية لعام 2019 وما هي السوابق السياسية الموجودة لتنفيذ الانتخابات العامة لعام 2024. ويستند النقاش إلى البيانات التي تم جمعها على أرض الواقع في ثلاث مناطق/مدن: سورابايا، وسيدوارجو، وبانجكالان. يتخذ هذا البحث نهج التاريخ السياسي. تشير نتائج الدراسة إلى أن الأشخاص من الطبقة الدنيا (وونغ سيليك) يتمتعون بنضج سياسي كافٍ، كما يتضح من عرض الذاكرة التاريخية والنظر في المشاركة في الانتخابات المقبلة. لا ينبغي المبالغة في التأثير السلبي لمناورة الزواج السياسي بين المرشحين المتنافسين في عام 2019 على مستوى المشاركة السياسية. تظل ثقة القاعدة الشعبية وتوقعاتها في العملية الديمقراطية عالية.

Abstract

This article explores the multidimensional understanding of jihād within the Sufi tradition, focusing on its typology as internal, verbal, and physical struggle (jihād al-nafs, jihād al-lisān, jihād al-Sayf). Drawing on classical Sufi texts, historical accounts, and modern scholarly analyses, the study re-evaluates the perception of Sufism as an exclusively pacifist movement. It argues that early Sufi thinkers such as Al-Ghazālī, Rūmī, and ʿAbdallāh b. al-Mubārak developed an integrated conception of jihād that prioritized spiritual purification but also permitted martial engagement under ethical conditions. The paper highlights the roles of Sufi saints and brotherhoods in resisting tyranny through speech, participating in holy wars, and supporting imperial military structures such as the Janissaries and Mughal armies. In modern times, many Sufi groups have reinterpreted jihād in nonviolent, ethical, and social terms, offering a counterbalance to Salafi-jihadist ideologies. The study concludes that Sufism’s legacy of combining inner discipline with outward responsibility provides a more holistic and historically grounded vision of jihād, one that continues to resonate in contemporary Islamic thought and global religious discourse.

Abstract

This study explores the theological and political dimensions of two major Islamic revivalist movements: Salafiyyah and the Muslim Brotherhood. It begins by situating both within the broader context of colonialism, the collapse of the Ottoman Caliphate, and the subsequent crisis of modernity in the Muslim world. Methodologically grounded in library-based qualitative research and comparative textual analysis, the study traces the evolution of Salafiyyah from Hadith-centered traditionalism to its revivalist expression in figures such as Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Ibn Taymiyyah, and Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab. Parallelly, it examines the emergence of the Muslim Brotherhood under Hasan al-Banna, focusing on its holistic Islamic vision that integrates theology with education, political activism, and social welfare. Results indicate that while both movements uphold core Sunni beliefs—particularly Tawḥīd and the rejection of Bidʿah—they differ sharply in strategic orientation. Salafiyyah emphasizes theological rigidity and purification, often leading to polemical exclusivism, whereas the Brotherhood employs theology as a platform for unity and pragmatic reform. These contrasting approaches reflect deeper tensions in how modern Muslims negotiate tradition, authority, and modernity. The study concludes by highlighting the contribution of both movements to Islamic revivalism and their enduring impact on contemporary Muslim political and spiritual thought.

Abstract

This paper investigates the multifaceted economic roles and institutional structures of Sufi networks in Islamic societies from medieval to modern times. It examines how Sufi doctrines of poverty and wealth, particularly through the divergent views of al-Ghazālī and Ibn Taymiyyah, shaped a distinctive Islamic economic ethos that intertwined spiritual discipline with ethical material engagement. The study explores the institutionalization of Sufi lodges (khānqāhs and zāwiyas) through waqf endowments, revealing how these centers supported religious transmission, community welfare, and local governance. Sufi lineages such as those in the Safavid and Saʿdī dynasties utilized spiritual charisma and household-based waqf networks to consolidate political authority and social influence. In frontier regions like Bengal and agrarian contexts like Morocco, Sufi institutions catalyzed agricultural development and rural integration, while in urban economies, Sufi guidance permeated trade guilds and artisanal ethics. The study also examines shrine-based pilgrimage economies as enduring engines of spiritual devotion, economic redistribution, and local identity formation, even amid modern state interventions and commodification. By integrating interdisciplinary methodologies from economic anthropology, historical sociology, and religious studies, this research highlights the strategic role of Sufi institutions in negotiating material realities with spiritual commitments. It offers new insights into how Sufi networks cultivated socio-economic resilience, governance structures, and moral economies across diverse Islamic polities and periods.

Abstract

This article challenges conventional debates on Islam and human rights, often focusing on doctrinal compatibility. It argues that a more robust and universal human rights framework must be grounded not in idealized historical traditions, but in a pragmatic acknowledgment of the historical reality of state-sponsored abuse. Employing a critical-historical and genealogical method, this study analyzes primary Islamic sources—including historical chronicles and legal treatises—to reconstruct the political history of governance, dissent, and violence from the pre-Islamic period through the classical caliphates. The findings reveal a profound dissonance between the theoretical ideal of the "just ruler" and the statistical reality, in which over 94% of caliphs and sultans were unjust by the tradition's standards. This history of abuse, however, paradoxically fostered the emergence of crucial institutional counterbalances, most notably an independent scholarly class (ʿUlamāʾ) that served as a moral and legal check on executive power. This study concludes that the most vital lesson from Islamic political history is the necessity of empowering such durable checks on power, shifting the focus from creating a perfect government to constraining the inevitable transgressions of an imperfect one.
