Abstract

Backround: This research examines the complex negotiation of identity among Muslim millennials and Generation Z in urban settings through the lens of reception analysis theory.Objective: The primary research objective is to analyze how Muslim millennials and Generation Z in urban areas negotiate identity through reception and interpretation of popular culture content.Method: This study employs a mixed-methods approach combining qualitative interviews (n=30) and quantitative surveys (n=500) across three major urban centers. Using Stuart Hall's encoding/decoding model, the research analyzes how Muslim youth interpret and negotiate meanings from popular culture content including social media, streaming platforms, music, and fashion.Findings and Implications: Findings reveal three distinct reception patterns: dominant-hegemonic (23%), negotiated (58%), and oppositional (19%). The negotiated position dominates, indicating that most respondents selectively accept cultural messages while filtering them through Islamic values. Thematic analysis identifies five key identity negotiation strategies: selective engagement, religious reframing, hybrid identity formation, community validation, and digital activism. The research demonstrates that urban Muslim youth actively construct multifaceted identities that integrate religious authenticity with global citizenship. Social media emerges as a critical space where 71% seek spiritual guidance while simultaneously consuming mainstream content.Conclusion: The study contributes to cultural studies and Islamic youth research by documenting how reception processes enable identity fluidity without compromising core religious values. Practical implications suggest that religious institutions should acknowledge youth agency in meaning-making processes and create inclusive spaces that validate hybrid identities.

Abstract

Background: The rapid development of digital technology has significantly transformed Islamic preaching (da’wah), requiring contemporary preachers (da’i) to reinterpret prophetic methodologies within algorithm-driven social media environments. Although prophetic principles wisdom (hikmah), beautiful preaching (mau’izhah hasanah), reasoned argumentation (mujadalah bi-llati hiya ahsan), and gradual progression (tadrij) remain timeless, their implementation in digital contexts demands contextual adaptation without compromising theological authenticity.Objective: This study aims to examine how digital da’i understand, interpret, and implement prophetic preaching methods across various social media platforms while navigating technological and algorithmic pressures.Method: This research employs a qualitative phenomenological approach involving 23 digital da’i selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, analysis of 287 digital artifacts across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and WhatsApp, non-participatory observation, and document analysis. Data were analyzed using a six-phase thematic analysis framework.Findings and Implications: The findings reveal three interpretive frameworks: classical adaptation (35%), contextualized translation (48%), and innovative integration (17%). Implementation strategies operate across five domains: content conceptualization, communication style, visual design, structural organization, and audience engagement. The study also identifies tensions between algorithmic demands for engagement and prophetic commitments to spiritual depth and ethical communication.Conclusion: The study highlights the need to integrate digital communication competencies into Islamic da’wah education while preserving prophetic foundations. Prophetic da’wah remains relevant in the digital era when applied with contextual wisdom, ethical integrity, and strategic adaptation.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technology has significantly transformed religious communication patterns, particularly Islamic da’wah among Indonesia’s millennial generation. Millennials, characterized by high digital literacy and preference for interactive, visual, and on-demand content, increasingly rely on social media platforms as primary sources of spiritual information. However, many da’wah initiatives still replicate conventional one-way preaching models without adapting to the dynamics of digital ecosystems. This study aims to identify effective strategies for utilizing digital technology to enhance the reach and impact of da’wah among millennials. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with digital da’wah practitioners and millennial audiences, participant observation of online religious content, and documentation analysis. The findings reveal that authenticity, relatability, visual storytelling, and engagement-based communication significantly influence audience retention and participation. Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok emerged as the most effective platforms when content was tailored to platform-specific formats such as short-form videos, live streaming, and interactive features. The study concludes that successful digital da’wah requires a paradigm shift toward conversational, contextual, and multi-platform strategies while maintaining theological credibility. These findings contribute to the development of digital religion scholarship and provide practical guidance for Islamic communicators navigating the contemporary digital landscape.

Abstract

The contemporary post-truth era has fundamentally challenged traditional notions of truth, honesty, and ethical communication, with misinformation proliferating across digital platforms at an unprecedented rate. In this context, the Qur'anic concept of 'qaulan sadidan' (truthful speech) offers a timeless ethical framework that transcends cultural and temporal boundaries. This study revisits the concept of qaulan sadidan as articulated in Surah al-Nisa' (4:9) and Surah al-Ahzab (33:70) to develop a comprehensive framework for ethical communication applicable to contemporary challenges. Employing a qualitative methodology with thematic tafsir analysis and content analysis of classical and modern Islamic scholarly works, this research examines how qaulan sadidan encompasses not merely factual accuracy but also constructive intent, contextual appropriateness, and beneficial outcomes. The study reveals that qaulan sadidan operates on three fundamental dimensions: epistemological (truth-telling), ethical (moral responsibility), and pragmatic (effective communication). Furthermore, this research demonstrates how the principles derived from qaulan sadidan can address critical challenges in the post-truth era, including digital misinformation, polarized discourse, and the erosion of public trust. The findings indicate that implementing qaulan sadidan principles requires both individual commitment to truthfulness and systemic reforms in media literacy, digital platform governance, and educational curricula. This study contributes to Islamic communication ethics scholarship while offering practical solutions for navigating the complex information ecosystem of the twenty-first century.

Abstract

Backround: This research examines the semiotic construction of meaning in digital Islamic da'wah content through analysis of Ustadzah Halimah Alaydrus's YouTube channel using Roland Barthes' three-level framework of denotation, connotation, and myth.Objective: As female Islamic preachers increasingly utilize digital platforms to disseminate religious teachings, understanding how meaning is semiotically constructed becomes critical for comprehending contemporary religious communication.Method: This qualitative study employs semiotic content analysis on eight selected videos representing diverse themes and high audience engagement.Findings and Implications: At the denotative level, findings reveal consistent formal presentation through text-based visuals, voice-only audio, and structured discourse creating distinctive brand identity. Connotative analysis demonstrates how these elements activate cultural codes related to Islamic piety, feminine virtue, and religious authenticity, negotiating tensions between tradition and modernity through sophisticated symbolic communication. Mythological analysis uncovers how content naturalizes the "Pious Femininity Synthesis"—presenting conservative Islamic gender norms and contemporary women's aspirations as perfectly compatible—while constructing "maternal wisdom authority" through epistemological, genealogical, experiential, pedagogical, and moral positioning mechanisms.Conclusion: Findings contribute theoretically by demonstrating Barthesian semiotics' effectiveness for religious discourse analysis, practically by revealing semiotic strategies for digital da'wah effectiveness, and critically by exposing ideological dimensions wherein female religious voice expansion coexists with naturalization of conservative gender hierarchies. The study provides comprehensive understanding of how digital Islamic content shapes contemporary religious identity and consciousness through layered meaning construction, offering insights valuable for preachers, religious institutions, media literacy educators, and scholars of digital religion.

Abstract

Background: Contemporary issues faced by Muslims are closely linked to global political dynamics and rapid technological developments. Foreign policies of several Western countries are often perceived as interventions in the Muslim world, triggering resistance and conflict that influence Islamic thought and give rise to various theological responses. At the same time, technological advancement accelerates the penetration of global culture, bringing values such as secularism, pluralism, consumerism, and individualism. Objective: This study aims to understand emerging contemporary issues and to analyze how Islamic theology (kalam) responds to secularism, pluralism, radicalism, and technological modernity. It also seeks to reaffirm the true teachings of Islam in accordance with Islamic law through a contextual and critical approach. Method: The research employs a qualitative method using a library study approach. It analyzes the concept of aqidah and rational arguments in the science of kalam, while tracing its development from classical to contemporary periods in responding to modern challenges. Findings and Implications: The study finds that kalam provides a normative and rational foundation to address modern beliefs and global issues. Inspired by Muhammad Iqbal’s emphasis on ijtihad, theology must encourage independent reasoning as a dynamic principle within Islam. This approach enables Muslims to critically engage with technological and global transformations. Conclusion: Kalam remains relevant in confronting contemporary technological and ideological challenges. Through critical ijtihad and contextual understanding, Islamic theology offers guidance to navigate modernity while preserving authentic Islamic principles.

Abstract

Background: Internal conflict is an inseparable phenomenon from organizational dynamics, including student organizations that have complex structures, ideologies, and leadership mechanisms. The conflict within the Indonesian Kesatuan Aksi Mahasiswa Muslim Indonesia (KAMMI) at the Medan and Deli Serdang Regional Board levels reflects tensions between structural legitimacy and personal interests, triggered by indications of violations of the organization's khittah (basic principles) and the emergence of dual loyalty among administrators. Objective: This article aims to analyze the leadership conflict within KAMMI Medan and Deli Serdang, particularly focusing on the appointment of an Acting Leader (Plt.) by the Central Board as a form of structural conflict management. Method: This research employs a literature study method with a qualitative-descriptive approach. Findings and Implications: The findings indicate that unmanaged conflict has the potential to cause organizational dysfunction, reduce cadre trust, and hinder the cadre development process. The appointment of an Acting Leader by the Central Board represents a structural conflict management strategy aimed at maintaining organizational stability and restoring the legitimacy of regional management. This study contributes academically to the literature on student organizational conflict and offers practical insights for managing internal organizational conflicts based on values and formal rules. Conclusion: Structural intervention through the appointment of an Acting Leader serves as an effective mechanism for conflict resolution in student organizations, although its long-term success depends on the ability to rebuild trust and consolidate organizational vision. Strengthening communication mechanisms and internalizing organizational values are essential for preventing similar conflicts in the future.

Abstract

Backround: This study analyzes rhetorical strategies in the speech practices of fifth-semester students of Da'wah Management at UIN Sheikh Ali Hasan Ahmad Addary Padangsidimpuan.Objective: The background of the study stems from the importance of rhetorical competence as a core skill of professional da'wah communicators in facing the increasingly complex and heterogeneous dynamics of contemporary public communication. The purpose of the study is to identify the implementation of students' rhetorical strategies and their implications for the formation of professional da'wah competence.Method: The study used a qualitative descriptive-interpretive approach with 28 fifth-semester Da'wah Management students as subjects, through participatory observation techniques, in-depth interviews, and documentation of speech practices. Data analysis was conducted thematically following open, axial, and selective coding procedures based on Aristotle's classical rhetorical framework (ethos, pathos, logos) and a contemporary da'wah rhetorical approach.Findings and Implications: The results show that students have implemented the elements of ethos, pathos, and logos with varying levels of mastery, supported by linguistic and nonverbal strategies and message contextualization for academic and social audiences.Conclusion: The implications of the research show that rhetorical strategies contribute significantly to the formation of communication competence, professional self-confidence, ethical awareness, managerial abilities in preaching, and soft skills of students as prospective professional, ethical, and adaptive preaching communicators.

Abstract

Background: Modern civilization is built upon a secular and fragmented epistemology that separates rationality from spiritual values a condition Ziauddin Sardar refers to as epistemic apartheid. This worldview has significantly influenced educational systems in many Muslim countries, including Indonesia, leading to a dichotomy between religious and worldly sciences. Objective: This study aims to explore the epistemological roots of this fragmentation from both Islamic and Western perspectives and to examine the potential for synthesizing the ideas of Sardar and Imre Lakatos. Method: The research adopts a qualitative library research approach utilizing a philosophical-analytical method. It traces the historical and epistemological dimensions of knowledge fragmentation and comparatively analyzes Sardar’s Islamic epistemological reconstruction and Lakatos’s scientific research programmes model. Findings and Implications: Sardar advocates for knowledge reconstruction based on the Islamic worldview, the principle of tawḥīd, and the objectives of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah, ensuring that knowledge remains value-driven and oriented toward the public good. Lakatos offers a structural model of scientific progress comprising a hard core and protective belt, which maintains theoretical continuity while accommodating rational development. Both thinkers reject positivism and value neutrality, emphasizing that knowledge is shaped by foundational assumptions and must respond to real ethical and social challenges. The proposed synthesis results in a comprehensive paradigm encompassing ontological (tawḥīd), epistemological (revelation, reason, and experience), axiological (maqāṣid), and methodological (research programmes) dimensions. Conclusion: The integrated framework offers a practical and transformative proposal for developing a contemporary Islamic epistemology that is rational, ethical, contextual, and capable of guiding future research and educational reform.

Abstract

Background: This study examines the practical readiness of fifth-semester students in the Islamic Broadcasting Communication (KPI) Study Program to master basic media skills amid increasing demands for practice-oriented media education.Objective: The objective of the study is to explore how students perceive and demonstrate their readiness for media production practices.Method: A phenomenological approach was employed to capture the meaning of participants' lived experiences, using data triangulation through self-report surveys, video analysis of documentation and assignment products, and in-depth interviews with 16 participants.Findings and Implications: The findings indicate an early-stage readiness, characterized by strong digital habits and high self-confidence, while verified production skills remain limited. Video observations reveal weaknesses in pre-production planning, visual narrative continuity, and fundamental technical aspects such as framing and audio quality. Phenomenological interviews further show that students' understanding of media ethics tends to be normative and is not yet critically reflected in production practices. The triangulated results highlight a gap between perceived readiness and observable practical competence, indicating the need for pedagogical intervention.Conclusion: This study concludes that strengthening pre-production instruction, implementing portfolio-based assessments with technical rubrics, and integrating reflective ethical tasks are essential to enhance the verifiability of practical competence and graduates' readiness as media practitioners.
