Abstract

Interfaith harmony is a crucial aspect in maintaining social stability in a pluralistic society, both in terms of differences in faith and denomination. This study aims to examine the role of the Pamekasan Regency Interfaith Harmony Forum (FKUB) in maintaining interfaith harmony and to identify factors that hinder its performance. The method used was a qualitative approach through interviews, observation, and documentation of relevant parties. The results of the study indicate that the role of the Pamekasan FKUB in maintaining interfaith harmony has not been optimal. The FKUB is considered slow in responding to conflicts and only acts after the issue has become public attention, so some people choose to resolve conflicts independently. In some cases, conflict resolution is also considered to violate the rights and obligations of members of other religions. The obstacles affecting the FKUB's performance consist of internal factors, such as minimal attention and support from the local government in terms of funding and facilities; and external factors, namely the community's low understanding of interfaith tolerance, which leads to fanaticism and vulnerability to provocation. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the capacity of the FKUB and increase tolerance literacy in the community.

Abstract

This research examines how religious people and the Hindu community view the changing roles of women in social and religious contexts at Pura Amrta Jati Cinere. This study also investigates new ways of understanding Hindu scriptures that support gender equality and examines how Hindu religious leaders responded to these changes. The research results show that doctrinally, Hinduism actually supports gender equality through the concepts of Ardhanariswara and Shakti, but patriarchal norms in society still pose an obstacle to its implementation. Currently, Hindu women at Pura Amrta Jati are increasingly valued as ritual leaders and important participants in social life, which has a positive impact on the community in terms of spiritual, social, and cultural aspects. There are still some existing social challenges that need to be reflected upon and become the focus of education to promote progress in gender equality within the practice of Hinduism.

Abstract

This article examines the relationship between the Church and poverty by analyzing the social response of the Santo Barnabas Catholic Church in Pamulang Timur to urban poverty. Poverty is understood not merely as economic deprivation, but as a social phenomenon shaped by structural inequality, limited access to education, health, and economic resources, as well as unequal social relations in urban settings. This study employs a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with parish priests, members of the Social and Economic Development Section, social ministry volunteers, and observations of church-based social programs. The findings reveal that the Santo Barnabas Catholic Church addresses urban poverty not only through charitable assistance, but also through sustainable empowerment programs in education, health, and community economic development. This social response is carried out through organized and institutionalized church engagement aimed at strengthening social solidarity at the community level. These practices reflect the Church’s role as a social actor implementing reflective and contextual faith-based activism grounded in Catholic Social Teaching. The article highlights the significant contribution of the Church in responding to urban poverty and fostering social solidarity within a plural urban society.

Abstract

Kirtan is one of the main forms of worship in the Sikh religion, carried out through the chanting of shabad (holy words) originating from Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji accompanied by music. For Sikhs, Kirtan is not only part of a religious ritual, but also serves as a means to get closer to Waheguru, deepen spiritual experience, and strengthen togetherness within the community. This study aims to examine the implementation of the Kirtan ritual and uncover the spiritual meaning felt by the congregation at Gurdwara Ciputat, South Tangerang. This study uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological and anthropological approach. Data were obtained through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with religious leaders and Sikh congregations, and literature studies related to the research theme. Data analysis was carried out using Clifford Geertz's symbolic theory to understand the symbolic meaning contained in the practice of Kirtan. The results show that Kirtan has five main spiritual meanings, namely as a medium for conveying emotions, a means of spiritual communication with God, a vehicle for aesthetic appreciation, a source of inner peace, and a form of preservation of Sikh traditions and culture. Viewed from Edmund Husserl's phenomenological perspective, the spiritual experience born through the practice of Kirtan is understood as a process of religious appreciation that fosters self-awareness, ego control, and closeness to Waheguru. Furthermore, Kirtan also contributes to the cultivation of discipline, simplicity, and the internalization of spiritual teachings in the daily lives of Sikhs.

Abstract

This article examines social and religious interactions as well as the process of identity adaptation between the Sunda Wiwitan community and migrant communities in Jalawastu Cultural Village, Brebes. The study is motivated by cultural and religious differences that have the potential to influence the dynamics of social life within the community. This research employs a qualitative method with a sociological approach. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews with the village head, traditional custodians, customary leaders, members of the Sunda Wiwitan community, migrant communities, and a literature review. Data were analyzed using Henri Tajfel and John Turner's Social Identity Theory to understand the processes of identity formation, maintenance, and adaptation within diverse social interactions. The findings reveal that social and religious interactions between the Sunda Wiwitan community and migrant communities are characterized by harmonious relationships fostered through cooperation in social, cultural, and religious activities. Differences in religious beliefs do not lead to significant conflict due to mutual respect and the freedom of each group to practice its own beliefs. The process of identity adaptation occurs through the adjustment of migrant communities to the values and customary norms of the Sunda Wiwitan community without compromising their own group identity. This study concludes that social harmony in a multicultural society can be achieved through tolerance, respect for diversity, and the ability of different groups to adapt to one another.

Abstract

This article analyzes the role of the Al Mustahdiyah Kalideres Islamic Boarding School in alleviating urban poverty through a faith-based empowerment strategy. In the context of multidimensional poverty, pesantren function not only as educational institutions, but also as socio-economic actors for the surrounding community. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using the perspective of Talcott Parsons' structural functionalism. The results of the study show that the empowerment strategy is carried out through the creation of business opportunities, strengthening the community economy, and internalizing religious values that encourage work ethic and social solidarity. The existence of Islamic boarding schools contributes to increasing income and economic stability of some of the surrounding communities. This research confirms that religious institutions have a strategic role in responding to urban poverty through integrated social and spiritual approaches.

Abstract

Penelitian ini mengkaji proses pembentukan, pemertahanan, dan negosiasi identitas sosial komunitas Hindu Bali di Bekasi sebagai kelompok diaspora minoritas di tengah masyarakat perkotaan multikultural yang didominasi kelompok mayoritas. Fokus penelitian terletak pada representasi identitas dalam kehidupan sehari-hari serta strategi adaptasi sosial untuk menjaga keberlangsungan nilai, norma, dan tradisi. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif-analitis melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi, dan dokumentasi. Analisis didasarkan pada teori fungsionalisme struktural Émile Durkheim dan kerangka AGIL Talcott Parsons, serta didukung teori identitas sosial dan ketegangan sosial. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komunitas Hindu Bali mampu mempertahankan identitas keagamaan dan budaya melalui praktik ritual, pewarisan nilai, serta adaptasi dalam bahasa, bentuk ibadah, dan relasi sosial lintas agama. Dalam kerangka AGIL, komunitas ini menunjukkan pola adaptasi konformitas yang memungkinkan terciptanya integrasi dan stabilitas sosial tanpa kehilangan identitas budaya di tengah dinamika masyarakat multikultural.

Abstract

Sumarah, an indigenous Javanese spirituality (Kejawen), centers on the philosophy of total surrender to God Almighty through a meditation practice known as Sujud Sumarah. This study aims to explore the practice of Sujud Sumarah as a coping strategy for dealing with various life stressors. It examines the internalization of local spiritual values ​​in building personal resilience. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, utilizing methods such as in-depth interviews with members of the Sumarah group and direct observation. The findings reveal that Sujud Sumarah is not merely a passive activity but an active practice involving three key stages: emotional acceptance (nrimo), letting go of the ego (pasrah), and aligning oneself with God's will (sumarah). The practice proved effective in reducing anxiety levels, fostering inner peace (tentrem), and altering individuals' perceptions of stressors. Thus, it can be concluded that spirituality-based local wisdom holds significant potential as a form of psychological intervention.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the practice of Chan Meditation carried out by the Mahayana Buddhist community at Ekayana Serpong Temple, Tangerang Regency, Banten, and to examine its adaptation and effectiveness in the digital era. A qualitative method with a psychology of religion approach was used, involving observation, in-depth interviews with practitioners and community leaders, and documentation of activities. The findings show that Chan Meditation at Ekayana Serpong Temple consists of five core movements: Namaskara, Sitting Meditation, Walking Meditation, Eight Movements of Awareness, and Yoga. Online sessions were held during the Covid-19 pandemic through Zoom and YouTube Live but were discontinued once in-person activities resumed, as they were considered less able to convey collective energy, guidance quality, and spiritual depth compared to offline practice. Digital technology therefore functions only as a temporary supporting medium, a digitally-mediated practice rather than a digital religion, so that the essence and method of Chan Meditation remain preserved.

Abstract

Online gambling has become a major social problem affecting Indonesia’s economic, psychological, and moral life. The rapid development of digital technology has increased public access to online gambling, requiring the involvement of religious institutions in preventive efforts. This study aims to analyze the strategy implemented by Gereja Kristen Jawa (GKJ) Nehemia Lebak Bulus, South Jakarta, in preventing online gambling among its congregation. This research employs a qualitative approach using descriptive-analytical methods through observation, interviews, and documentation. Bruce J. Biddle’s Role Theory is applied to analyze the church’s social and religious functions. The findings reveal that GKJ Nehemia implements an integrated strategy through Marturia, Koinonia, and Diakonia, functioning as preventive, educational, communal, and pastoral approaches. These strategies strengthen the congregation’s moral resilience and contribute to maintaining a zero-case condition regarding online gambling within the church community.
