Abstract

This article explores the historical and contemporary importance of Makkah and the hajj for Malays in South Thailand. Our multi-disciplinary approach examines relevant historiographies, the insights of Islamic Studies scholars, and ethnographic data collected in Pattani’s provincial capital. We point out that in the outputs produced by literary networks located in Sumatra and the portion of Thai/Malay Peninsula once referred to as the Malay Sultanate of Pattani, references to Makkah were early to appear. Malays from Pattani may have primarily travelled to Makkah to perform the hajj, but following Pattani’s subjugation by Bangkok in the late 18th century, Makkah functioned as a refuge. Following a description of the prerequisites, preparations, and performances of the hajj in present-day Pattani, we identify and discuss motivations of fulfilment, forgiveness, and merit-making. We argue through our exploration of these historical, ethnographic, and theological factors that Makkah is much more than a site of pilgrimage, and that the performance of hajj is multi-faceted.

Abstract

As a long-established fundamental value of both Indonesia and Malaysia, religious pluralism has become a highly contested issue. A common tendency among the dominant Muslim groups in Indonesia and Malaysia, promoted by their fatwa bodies, has been to revisit religious pluralism. This article poses questions: how pluralism is defined, discussed and contested in both countries; why mainstream Islamic groups reconstruct the meaning of the term; which arguments are used by these groups; and what impact this has on legal discourse and legal practice in both countries. With these questions, this article focuses on fatwas issued by the Indonesian Council of Ulama and the National Fatwa Council of Malaysia. The article discusses the incorporation of fatwas into state policy in both countries, social disputes and contestation over fatwas. The theoretical frameworks used are taken from interdisciplinary discourses on transnationalism, pluralism, Islamic legal theory, legal pluralism and the public sphere.

Abstract

This article tries to map out more than 40 works of Indonesian Muslim writers regarding the Jews (as religion and communities), and the influences of those works in shaping understanding on Judaism and the Jews among Indonesian Muslim communities. This article focuses on examining how those writers interested to the themes they choose in their books, and what are the sources they refer to. In general, there are at least two models of Indonesian Muslim writers have developed in their works on Judaism and the Jews community. The first is the works that are normatively preferring to based their primary sources from the Quran and al-Hadith or classical Muslim scholarship traditions in their depiction on Judaism or the Jews. The second is the works that are mainly characterized to prove Jewish ‘hidden’ agendas as well as political, social, economic and cultural movements played by the Jews as a part of international Jewish connection.

Abstract

The social interaction between Bugis Muslims and Hindus in Bali has long been known to be harmonious. This interaction can become a role model for religious interaction in Indonesia. This paper aims to explain the practice of menyama-braya (brotherhood) as a cultural system and its relevance to the integrative social interaction between the Hindu and Bugis Muslim communities in Bali. The research was conducted in the villages of Serangan, Kepaon, Tuban, Suwung, Tanjung Benoa, and Angantiga. The research is qualitative in nature and draws on interviews and the broader literature. The study reveals that a successful harmonious social life cannot be separated from the adoption of menyama-braya culture, which combines the attitude of solidarity and tolerance. The practice of the menyama-braya cultural system has been maintained for generations through various methods, such as socialization, rituals, the use of the same symbols, and formal educational institutions.

Abstract

This article examines the marginalization of the traditional pesantren educational system and how the system finds a way to be recognized as equal in contemporary Indonesia. This study is mainly based on the author’s observation of practices in Tafsīr al-Jalālayn pedagogies in traditional and modern West Javanese pesantrens and the kitāb reading tournament, with in-depth interviews of some related figures and teachers, during the periods 2015-2017. This article argues that the marginalization of the educational system since the coming of modernization in the early twentieth century continues to happen up to the end of the century. The graduates of the traditional institutions keep left behind, and that the traditional pesantren system is merely recognized as a type of non-formal education. The twenty-first century period witnessed attempts from the Indonesian government through the Ministry of Religious Affairs to equalize the kitāb-based learning in the traditional milieu. By so doing, the graduates are expected to receive equal rights for pursuing their education or looking for a career.

Abstract

Like any other discourse, ideas regarding usury in Indonesia have evolved over time. This study is concerned with tracing that evolution and with understanding how Indonesian academics, practitioners, and laypersons view the problem. The increasing popularity of usury is then juxtaposed with emergence of anti-usury movements, of which this study identifies 14 throughout the country. Using a phenomenological approach, the study analyses these movements in order to better understand their nature and then categorises them into three classes. The first is that organised by figures affiliated with Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia; the second is initiated by Indonesia’s Salafi ulama; and the third has no clear leadership and membership and is, therefore, somewhat disorganised. The ideas espoused by the anti-usury movement are primarily disseminated via the internet and social media. This study finds that the movement is growing quickly and gaining momentum.

Abstract

‘Abd al-Raḥmān al-Ẓāhir (1833-1896) was an influential, dynamic Hadhrami. He was a Muslim reformer, as well as a savvy businessman and formidable diplomat. Arriving in Aceh in 1864, he embarked on both business and political endeavors, as religious and trade experiences helped develop diplomatic ties between the locals, the Ottomans, and the European powers. Although he surrendered in 1878 to the Dutch, his activities and influence were increasingly common subjects for different colonial newspapers until the middle of the 20th century. This article re-examines al-Ẓāhir’s political role and his various interactions with Acehnese royal contends. It investigates his interactions with the Aceh court, the uleebalang, and the Dutch, as well as the socio-political environment that informed his surrender to the Dutch. Through investigations of numerous Ottoman, Dutch and indigenous sources, this article offers a glimpse into the reality of the indigenous responses to the decisions of this most trusted Hadhrami.

Abstract

Yanwar Pribadi. 2018. Islam, State and Society: Local Politics in Madura. New York: RoutledgeThis book talks about the relationship between Islam, state and society in Indonesia with a focal point on local politics in Madura. Specifically, this book tries to explain factors that have shaped the development of contemporary Islam and politics in Madura. One of the main arguments of this book is that local elite figures play greater roles than formal leaders such as village heads or regents in mobilizing communities in Madura. By focusing on both kiai and blater, this book examines the forms of the relationship between Islam and politics on one hand, and between piety and violence on the other. Anthropologically speaking, in order to produce a richer discussion, kiai and blater must be seen as social actors and not as a mere structure in their role of the construction of Islam and political formation in contemporary Indonesia.

Abstract

There are at least two interesting facts about Indonesia and the Muslim world. First, Indonesia is the largest Muslim country in the world. With more than 260 million people, Indonesia is the 4th most populous country in the world, and here Islam is the most adhered to religion. With approximately 87 % of its population are Muslims, the largest Muslim population in one country lives in Indonesia.Second, a large number of Muslim majority countries are not Arabs. According to the Pew Research Center, approximately 20 percent of Muslims live in Arab countries. Turkey and Iran, two non-Arab countries, are the largest Muslim-majority countries in the Middle East. Meanwhile, South Asia and Southeast Asia cover around 62 percent of the world’s Muslims. Indonesia alone is home to 12.7 percent of all world’s Muslims.These two facts show Indonesia’s unique position in the Islamic world. On the one hand, Indonesia is one of the farthest countries from the Arab World, but Islam that comes from there has been deeply rooted in the daily lives of many Indonesian Muslims. On the other hand, Indonesia which was colonized for more than three hundred years by Western colonialism, did not take for granted the influence of Arab cultures, and even more in contact with modernity, both directly and indirectly introduced by way of colonialism.

Abstract

This article examines the role of music as a repertoire of contention and as a framing device used to challenge the political legitimacy of the rulers and strengthen the collective identity of the participants in  “Aksi Bela Islam” (ABI), a demonstration held in Jakarta at the end of 2016. Rizieq Shihab, one of the key actors of ABI, wrote two songs known as “Si Ahok Durjana” and “Mars Aksi Bela Islam”. This paper argues that the success of mass mobilization during ABI cannot be separated from the creative use of media and popular culture—including music. The key actors of ABI used music and popular media as framing devices to communicate cognitive meanings, mobilize potential adherents, delegitimize authorities, instill emotional feelings and awaken the collective identity of Muslims. This paper applies new social movement theory that emphasizes the significance and role of cultural factors in the dynamics of social movements.
