Abstract

The use of comics as a medium for conveying religious messages has been present in Indonesia since at least the 1960s. However, few comics have seriously addressed critiques of conservative religious practices. This study aims to describe the critique of religious conservatism in the comic strips on the Instagram account @islamidotco. This research is a descriptive qualitative study. The comics in this study are examined using Roland Barthes’ semiotic analysis. The research concludes that the comic strips on the Instagram account islami.co represent a critique of religious conservatism. This is evident in a comic strip depicting a Santa Claus character who is a Muslim and is performing the midday prayer (ẓuhr). The issues discussed in the comic relate to Christmas-related controversies in the Indonesian context, such as debates over Christmas greetings, the prohibition of wearing Christmas attire, and the controversy surrounding Muslims’ giving and receiving of Christmas gifts.

Abstract

This study examines how audience participation on Instagram shapes the dynamics of digital interpretation, particularly through the processes of figuring (affirming meaning) and disfiguring (reinterpretation or critique) in comments on Quranic verse posts. The research is motivated by the shifting paradigm of religious authority in the social media era, where interpretation is no longer monopolized by authoritative figures but openly negotiated and contested by users. The study focuses on two public accounts: @ismaelalkholilie, representing a sufistic-affective style, and @nadirsyahhosen, reflecting a contextual-critical approach. Using a descriptive qualitative method and digital hermeneutics, data were collected through online observation, caption documentation, and analysis of comments on two posts (January–May 2025). Findings show that audiences are active co-interpreters rather than passive recipients. Comments on Ismael’s account are mainly affective and affirm spiritual narratives, while those on Nadirsyah’s account are more reflective, intellectual, and critical. Digital interpretation thus emerges as dialogical, decentralized, and shaped by audience participation.

Abstract

This study examines the practice of Islamic rituals and spirituality among Muslim communities in Southeast Asian coastal regions, where these practices have become an integral part of social and cultural life. The central issue addressed is the lack of comprehensive documentation concerning how these communities understand and practice Islamic spirituality and symbolism in the study of modernization and religious reform. Employing a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods, this study delves into various ritual practices, including Maulid, Tahlil Laut, Sedekah Bumi, Zikir, and daily Wirid. The findings reveal that coastal Muslim communities interpret these rituals as a means of strengthening social solidarity, fostering a transcendent relationship with God, and maintaining harmony with the natural environment, particularly the sea. Spirituality is practiced communally and passed down as part of a living religious habitus. Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of practice is utilized to analyze the interplay between tradition and change within the community’s social space. This research affirms that Islam in coastal areas is not monolithic but rather contextual, adaptive, and rich in symbolic meaning. The findings contribute to the study of local expressions of Islam and offer new insights into the diversity of religious practices in Southeast Asia.

Abstract

This article reexamines the construction of the meaning of hijab in Islam through Abu Syuqqah’s perspective in Tahrir al-Mar’ah fi ‘Asr al-Risalah using Hans-Georg Gadamer’s hermeneutic approach. Unlike interpretations that frame the hijab as a rigid obligation or symbol of restriction, Abu Syuqqah emphasizes its moral and ethical dimensions in social interactions, grounded in a contextual reading of Qur’anic verses al-Ahzāb (33:53, 59) and an-Nūr (24:31). He views the hijab not merely as clothing but as a social tool for preserving dignity while enabling women’s public roles. Employing Gadamer’s four hermeneutical concepts—historical consciousness, pre-understanding, fusion of horizons, and application—the study shows that Abu Syuqqah’s interpretation is shaped by his awareness of tradition, the Prophet’s social context, and contemporary challenges faced by women in Muslim societies. The article concludes that his reconstruction offers a form of social spirituality that integrates textual fidelity with contextual relevance, addressing both classical meanings and modern realities.

Abstract

This study investigates how the LOGIN Season 3 program on Deddy Corbuzier’s YouTube channel fosters the internalization of religious tolerance values among university students. Rising intolerance in public and digital spaces highlights the urgency of da'wah content that promotes inclusivity. Grounded in Syukur & Hermanto’s da'wah content theory and Suyahmo’s concept of tolerance, the research employs a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were gathered through video content observation, interviews with student viewers, and analysis of audience comments. The findings show that students internalize values such as freedom of religion, interfaith brotherhood, and acceptance of diversity. This process is facilitated by the program’s casual yet substantive communication style, its use of accessible digital platforms, and its inclusive, moderate narratives. Positive engagement in the comment sections further emphasizes its effectiveness. The study concludes that LOGIN offers a contextual and impactful model of digital da'wah, enriching discourse on da'wah theory and demonstrating its potential to cultivate tolerance in a pluralistic society.
