Abstract

Indonesian government plays an important role in developing religious education. Since the 1970s, the government has promoted basic education for the Indonesian citizen, modernizing primary and secondary education and including religious subjects in the national curriculum. Furthermore, from the early beginning of the New Order era, Islamic educational institutions such as pesantren and madrasah—which are mostly founded by private or informal institutions— must also follow the national curriculum and comply with state regulations. On the one hand, pesantren is continuously recognized as an autonomous institution, and honored as a community-based educational institution. Madrasah, on the other hand, is supported to teach Islam and religious subjects, but at the same time it is required to introduce sciences and general subjects to its students.During the 1980s and 1990s, major changes in the curriculum of Islamic religious education in Indonesia have turned madrasah into education institutions increasingly integrated in Indonesia’s national education. In fact, the share of general studies reached 70%, while religious studies have been reduced to only about 30% of madrasah curriculum. As a consequence, all madrasah graduates have equivalent degree recognized by other schools in general, enabling them to pursue undergraduate studies in public universities.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v25i1.7284

Abstract

Pancasila is the five principles of the Indonesian state’s philosophical foundation. Its existence reflects the characteristics of Indonesia as a multicultural nation-state, one which has to absorb and transform all elements of the nation into a strong, permanent foundation, and a dynamic guiding principle. The five principles are viewed as the crystalisation of the core values and ideals of the nation, as idealised by the existing “trilogy ideology”: religious ideologies, nationalist ideologies and socialist ideologies. All of the ideologies had been synthesized in order to find a common ground that realises the common good (al-maṣlaḥah al-‘āmmah) for the life of the nation. The history of the conceptualisation of Pancasila had been a long process featuring the “seeding” phase, “formulation” phase, and “commencement” phase. Each phase involves the participation of various actors and elements. However, in a joint work of the nation, one of the most prominent actors is Soekarno. To understand Pancasila, one needs to understand his life and thoughts.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v25i2.7502
Taqlīd Ngunya li muslimī Pegayaman bi Bali: Taṭbīq al-sharī‘ah al-Islāmīyah fī baldat al-Hindūs Arif, Muhamad

Abstract

The 19th-century orientalists assumed that Balinese religious identity was formed through opposition to Islam. But this article provides contrary evidence. In Bali, Islam is exposed through associative patterns of interaction with Hindu-Balinese society since the 17th century. The Ngunya Muslim Pegayaman tradition is one of the results of the interaction between Islamic culture and Hindu culture in Bali. This article attempts to analyze the tradition according to three perspectives. In a continuity perspective, this tradition is one form of cultural acculturation and at the same time, explains how the Hindu community well receives the Islamic community. In a convergence perspective, Ngunya is a creative idea in resolving social conflicts related to marital procedures. In a concentric view, although the tradition was adopted from the Hindu tradition, Pegayaman’s Islamic community still made Islamic teachings the main reference in the procedure of marriage.

Abstract

Muhammadiyah has been perceived as an example of a successful blend between Islam and modernity. By adopting modern spirit of discipline, equality, and a hard work ethics, this organization has become a vibrant and independent movement. The number of Muhammadiyah educational and health institutions is only surpassed by those owned by the Indonesian government. Muhammadiyah has 177 universities; thousands of secondary, middle, and elementary schools, as well as hundreds of hospitals and other health institutions. However, the organization’s successes in social, educational, and economic do not necessarily indicate that it also embraces pluralistic values and religious tolerance. This paper, therefore, intends to describe Muhammadiyah’s position in the context of pluralism, liberalism, and Islamism. It argues that although Muhammadiyah is predominated by members with moderate religious inclinations, but a significant number of them are exclusively puritan in their theology. The organization’s focus on social services is the reason why Muhammadiyah has evaded Islamist tendencies.
Bureaucratizing Sharia in Modern Indonesia: The Case of Zakat, Waqf and Family Law Jahar, Asep Saepudin

Abstract

This article examines the “bureaucratization” of Sharia in Indonesia, giving special attention to zakat, waqf and other aspects of family law. The bureaucratization of Sharia aims to modernize the legal system for Muslims in order to provide certainty and justice in solving legal disputes. While some scholars view the incorporation of Sharia into state law as an attempt at Islamization, this study argues that this process reflects increasing bureaucratization rather than Islamization. The incorporation of Sharia into state law is a project of formalizing a state-defined brand of Islam and Sharia legislation. This phenomenon has precedence in premodern Muslim governance and can be traced from the colonial period.  In contemporary Indonesia, the Ministry of Religious Affairs and religious courts have played a central role in bureaucratizing Sharia. To support the argument, this study will explore Indonesian family law, including zakat and waqf.

Abstract

Eric Tagliacozzo, 2013. The Longest Journey: Southeast Asians and the Pilgrimage to Mecca. Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press.For many Muslims in Southeast Asia, the Hajj is not only an important spiritual experience but also a unique and very interesting story to tell. In this book, Eric Tagliacozzo painstakingly delivers the story of Hajj in Southeast Asia, where in the last five centuries, the Hajjis from Southeast Asian region have gone to Mecca to perform mandatory worship to perfect their religion. The longue duree approach that he uses not only enable him to unveil the reasons why millions of Southeast Asian Muslims have embarked on pilgrimage since the 15th CE, but also how the Hajj played great political and economic roles during the pre- and post-colonial periods up to this day, when the Hajj is increasingly complicated but, thanks to the advance of technology, it has become more affordable for many. Enriched with a sharp analysis of history and anthropology, the book is undoubtedly a very important contribution to the increased interest in the study of Hajj in the Malay-Indonesian archipelago and Southeast Asia.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v25i1.7839

Abstract

On the Saturday late night, 10th February 2018, Basit––an Islamic teacher (ustādh)––admonished street children because of their perturbing behaviours in the front of his store. However, feeling offended by the ustādh, the children had battered down of him instead. His right hand was severely torn due to knife cuts and got a bruised face after being showered with punches from the children. On the next day, 11th February 2018, Mass (Divine Liturgy) at St. Lidwina Church in Sleman, Yogyakarta turned out to be “Bloody Mass” after being attacked by a 23-year-old young man. Allegedly running toward choir, the youngster swung repeatedly his blade in the front of the church and slashed pastor, churchgoer, church congregation and police officer as well.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v25i2.7924

Abstract

Myanmar is a non-secular Buddhist majority country born out of the ashes of the murder of their leader of independence struggle, General Aung San, was assassinated on July 19, 1947, a few months before the independence of Burma on January 4, 1948. His  failed legacy in integrating Myanmar into a multicultural nation which contains of Burmans as ethnic majority and non-Burman minorities continues to obsess Myanmar’s people. The Rohingya crisis is not a religious conflict between Islam and Buddhism because both of them have a long-shared history of peaceful coexistence. Furthermore, it is also not only a case of Buddhist persecution against Muslims as recognized by the Rohingyan nationalists. Actually, it is a clash between two views of nationalism over the claim to Myanmar citizenship. The conflict invokes Buddhist and Muslim nationalist in order to protect and preserve national ethnicities as religious identities in turn causing the rise of the new phenomena of Asian Islamophobia.
Qur’anic Exegesis for Commoners: A Thematic Sketch of Non-Academic Tafsīr Works in Indonesia Qadafy, Mu'ammar Zayn

Abstract

This article deals with two scholarly tafsīr books circulating throughout modern Indonesia: Husein Qadri’s (1906-1966) “Senjata Mukmin” (The Weapons of the Believers) and Agus Purwanto’s (b. 1964) “Nalar Ayat-Ayat Semesta” (Reasoning of the Verses of the Universe). Qadri, representing his position as Muslim scholar, and Purwanto, as Muslim intellectual, contribute to the shaping of lay exegesis in their country. I conclude that although the two works are completely different with regard to genre, methodology and style, both are concerned with attracting the attention of lay readers and, accordingly, endeavor to present their information in a comprehensible and accessible manner. In term of content, the two books limit their discussion to the apparent (ẓāhir) meaning of the Qur’an, an understanding that depends on a reader’s knowledge of Arabic; one might call it an immediate understanding of the text. Their works also maintain the primacy of Arabic over the Indonesian language.

Abstract

Indonesian Muslims in Washington DC and the surrounding states of Maryland and Virginia are an important Indonesian community in the United States. They are one of a few Indonesian American communities with a Muslim majority. We survey its birth and assess the early Indonesian and Indonesian Muslim presence in America and their arrival routes. We then examine the lack of Indonesian interest to immigrate to this continent until very recently. Our study draws upon scholarly research on Indonesian-Dutch connections and the early Indonesian experience in the United States. Data about the Indonesian Muslim Association in America (IMAAM) mosque are derived from interviews with over two hundred leaders and members of the community (jamā‘ah). This includes in-depth interviews with forty-six selected individuals, and observation of the masjid activities over a year (April 2017 – June 2018) forms an integral part of this explorative research.
