Abstract

The magical side of the jamasan ritual is often put aside to save the impression of the jamasan ritual as a result of the label of syncretism between Java and Islam. Because instead of being considered a 'religious ritual', jamasan is part of Javanese culture which is separated from their beliefs. However, academics need to pay attention to another part of the jamasan process to extract how this ritual holds various environmental values that shape the mindset and identity of the community. This research aims to explain how (1) the magical side of the Jamasan ritual can build a 'logical' rhetoric of Javanese beliefs. In addition, (2) how the belief in the sanctified objects as heirlooms has implications for the transfer of values of respect for the environment in which the Javanese live. This research takes a case study of the Jamasan Kiai Ngaliman Ritual in the Nganjuk Regency, using James George Frazer's magical theory approach and ethnographic methods for data collection. As a result, awareness of the people's attachment to their ancestors through heirlooms becomes a medium for how they 'communicate' with the surrounding nature. This awareness is reminiscent of their location in the mountains, which relies on good natural conditions for agriculture, plantations, stable soil and water intake, and avoidance covid virus and other natural disasters. This attachment to ancestors is valuable in maintaining the stability of social cohesion to understand the surrounding nature.

Abstract

Natural disasters can cause deep trauma to survivors, affecting various aspects of their lives, such as their mental health and quality of life. This study aimed to explore the role of religion in helping victims of natural disasters overcome the trauma caused by the 2004 earthquake and Tsunami in Aceh. The research method used a qualitative approach by interviewing several victims who survived the disaster. The data obtained from the interviews were then analyzed using a thematic analysis approach, and the results showed that religion played a significant role in helping victims overcome disaster trauma. In the face of losing family members, homes, and other assets, their religious beliefs provide emotional support and strength to carry on with life. Prayers, religious rituals, and participation in faith-based community activities helped them feel connected to fellow victims and alleviated their feelings of loneliness. Religion also served as a source of comfort for victims. Belief in greater divine power helps victims go through the recovery process with more confidence. Acceptance of fate and belief in justice helped them overcome feelings of confusion and anger towards their situation. However, the research also identified some challenges in integrating religious aspects into post-disaster recovery efforts. Differences in religious beliefs and individual interpretations of disaster events can cause tension and conflict within communities. Therefore, an approach that is inclusive and respectful of the diverse religious beliefs is necessary to support a holistic recovery process. This study concludes that religion plays an important role in helping victims of natural disasters cope with trauma and recover. Implementing a religiously sensitive approach to post-disaster relief efforts can increase the effectiveness and sustainability of the recovery efforts. The results of this study are expected to provide insights for humanitarian aid practitioners, researchers, and other relevant parties to develop more effective and sustainable interventions for victims of natural disasters in the future.

Abstract

This article aims to illustrate how the phenomenological approach developed by Richard C. Martin can be used to strengthen post-Orientalist Islamic studies. In this article, we outline the key concepts in phenomenology according to Richard C. Martin, including intuition, description, and reflection. This article then explains how this approach can be applied to Islamic studies. Using a phenomenological approach, researchers can gain a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of religious experiences in Islam. Furthermore, this article discusses the benefits and implications of phenomenology in Islamic studies. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review type of research, which means that data are collected from various existing sources, such as books, journals, articles, and writings related to the study of Islam through phenomenology in the view of Richard C. Martin. The use of a phenomenological approach can help overcome some of the challenges in Islamic studies, such as researchers’ subjectivity and diversity of interpretation. Using this approach, researchers can explore a broader understanding of the diversity of religious experiences in Islam and respect individual perspectives. In conclusion, this article presents the phenomenological approach developed by Richard. Martin could be a useful tool for strengthening Islamic studies. By understanding religious experiences in Islam through a phenomenological lens, researchers can achieve a deeper understanding and encourage dialog and understanding between individual Muslims and non-Muslims inherited by old orientalists.

Abstract

Wahidiyyah, which is centered in Kediri in the form of a sholawat tariqat, faces external and internal challenges. This study focuses on the Wahidiyyah elite's understanding of external-internal conflict, organizational legalization, and the socio-political values of organizational transformation amid the controversy surrounding its movement. The study used a sociological approach with the analysis of Burger and Luckman's Social Construction theory, which found that in the externalization space, conflict is understood as part of social dynamics.  In the Objectivation space, legalization is the socio-political power of Wahidiyah in the midst of the current debate on society.  With the issuance of the decree from the Attorney General's Office, Wahidiyah was placed in line with other Islamic religious organizations. In the Internalization Space, Wahidiyyah's socio-political values of transformation are openness, nationalism, democracy, and inclusivity.  The transformation of the institution from Tarekat to Shalawat wahidiyyah as a religious organization does not change the religious orientation of wahidiyyah nor does it change its teachings and practices.  The belief and enthusiasm of the congregation remain the same, as the opening of management representatives abroad is proof that wahidiyyah is loved by the congregation.

Abstract

This article discusses the shift in religious patterns that occurred in the Muslim community of Kampung Inggris Pare. Kampung Inggris Pare is located in the Pare Sub-district, Kediri District, East Java, Indonesia, and is known as an English language education center that is visited by people from various regions. Initially, the Muslim community in the English Village Pare had a strong religious pattern and was closely related to Islamic traditions. They regularly follow religious practices, such as praying, fasting, and attending knowledge assemblies. In addition, they have established close social ties with local scholars and religious leaders. However, in recent years, there has been a shift in religious patterns among the Muslim community in the Kampung Inggris Pare. This study aims to analyze the factors that influence the shift in Islamic religious patterns in the community of Kampung Inggris Pare. To achieve this goal, the researcher used a qualitative approach that involved several research methods, including in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis.  This qualitative approach allows researchers to gain a deeper understanding of the changes that occur and the dynamics behind this shift in religious patterns. This research found that the rapid development of English language education and foreign culture has had a significant impact on the pattern of religiosity. People have begun to experience changes in their religious priorities and focuses. Economic development and increased social mobility also played important roles in this change. People who were previously more focused on religious education and activities are now more oriented towards finding better jobs and economic opportunities. Religious priorities tend to shift towards material success and modern lifestyles. This shift in religious patterns not only affects religious practices but also the social structure and values upheld by the Muslim community in Kampung Inggris Pare.

Abstract

This study discusses the moderation process of Islamic da'wah which puts forward a persuasive, tolerant, and cultural approach in a remote hamlet where the majority of the people are wine/arak producers. This research uses a qualitative methodology by following a constructionistic logic, namely placing the subject's relationship with the reality-in-awareness of the research subject. Reality in the awareness of this subject can start from observations, participation in interactions, in-depth dialogues, reading and so on. The results of this research can be narrowed down into three points, namely; First, Islamic da'wah with a moderate and moderate approach will minimize friction/horizontal clashes between da'i (subject of da'wah) and mad'u (object of da'wah). Second, the understanding of the local village religious leaders who are NU-style (Nahdlotul Ulama) has implications for the practice of cultural Islamic da'wah which prioritizes moderate attitudes and moderation. Third, the moderation model of Islamic da'wah in Poncol Hamlet (arak producing community) has proven to be able to consistently attract public sympathy. This is reinforced by statistical evidence of the quantity and quality of the local community's religiosity consistently.

Abstract

This study investigates the dynamics of religious harmony that occur in the ogoh-ogoh tradition at Pura Agung Satya Dharma, Sekaran Village, Kediri, through the lens of social interaction theory. Ogoh-ogoh, a Hindu ritual held before Nyepi Day, sets the stage for complex social interactions in the multireligious community of Sekaran Village. This study uses a qualitative approach with a focus on field data collection through observations, interviews, and documentation. The results highlight how the ogoh-ogoh tradition is not only a religious symbol for Hindus but also a point of convergence for other religious communities in building harmony and harmony amidst differences in beliefs. The analysis of the social interaction theory provides deep insights into how social relations, norms, and values influence each other in the context of ogoh-ogoh celebrations. The results show that the Sekaran village community is a multicultural and multi-religious village able to foster a sense of love, harmony, and harmony in religious activities such as the ogoh-ogoh celebration, which is a Hindu culture. Moreover, the ogoh-ogoh culture, which is held every year, brings the community closer in life. However, the weakness of this study lies in the limited representation of the sample, which may not cover the entire spectrum of the Sekaran community. In addition, this research may also be limited in considering external factors that could influence the dynamics of religious harmony in the ogoh-ogoh tradition, such as broader political, economic, and sociocultural factors. Therefore, the results of this study should be considered in light of these limitations in the context of its analysis.
