Abstract

This article highlights the weaknesses in the formalistic approach to Islamic finance which deals mainly with shariah compliance. This research examines religious elements  that consist in the operations of the Indonesian Islamic microfinance institution by criticizing it for the costs of transactions, the composition of contracts, and the procedures for murābaḥah (working capital finance). Acknowledging that shariah principles were compromised  to some extent, the BMT’s employees did not question the Islamic character and identity of the BMT.  Highlighting their commitments to improving the economic conditions of the Muslim community, active involvement in charity and socio-religious works, business practices caring for the unfortunate people, and their Islamic networks, the employees believe that the BMT has implemented Islamic values. For them, Islamic finance is not only attributed to sharia compliance, but it must also contain a wide range of religious tendencies and practices. By stressing the importance of the aspirations and commitments of Muslim activists, this paper widens the discussion of how to vitalize Islamic finance.

Abstract

Kathryn M. Robinson (Ed.). 2020. Mosques and Imams: Everyday Islam in Eastern Indonesia. Singapore: NUS Press, National University of Singapore.This book provides an in-depth and critical narrative that contributes to a better understanding of Indonesian Muslim society's complexities and shifts. In contrast to studies on the dynamics of Islam in the western part of Indonesia, especially Java, which is centered on the figures of kiyai and Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) or Islamic schools (madrasah) institutions, the subjects of this study are mosques and imams. Both of which play a role as locus and agents of Islamization in Eastern Indonesia. With an ethnographic approach, this book is highly rich in details and insights that describe the particularity, diversity, nuances, as well as dimensions of Muslim communities in South Sulawesi, Maluku, East Nusa Tenggara, and West Nusa Tenggara. This book argues that religious authorities (imams) are autonomous figures who have considerable capacity to act, which enables them to shape their people's specific experiences and identities by utilizing mosques as sites to exercise their agency.

Abstract

Religion is predicted to dissipate from social significance through the processes of development or economic modernization. Classical secularization theory forecasted religion in the modern era will face some circumstances such as 1) the decline of personal faith, religious beliefs and practices; and (2) the retreat of religion from public space (Cassanova: 1994, 2010). However, the supporters of secularization and modernization theories failed to notice that religion did not disappear from the public sphere. The opposite occurs in Southeast Asia. Economic development program and modernization could work hand-in-hand with religion in the region (Feener and Fountain: 2018).In the context of Indonesia, the issue of religion has gone through ups and downs. The story of Indonesia’s revival of Islam had been begun when the country experienced anti-communist campaigns of 1965-66 (McVey: 2006). Since then, the government obliged all of its societies to profess one of Indonesia’s recognized religions: Islam, Catholicism, Protestantism, Buddhism, and Hinduism (now Confucianism has been added to the list) (Qurtuby: 2013). The pressure for all citizens to embrace one particular recognized religion resulted in great conversion from local religions/faiths—Hindu, Buddha, abangan, etc.—to Islam (Hefner: 1987a, 1987b, 1989; cf. Beatty: 1999). It then witnesses rapid growth of the grassroots Islam and the spread of Islamization (Houben: 2003).

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has jolted the world, including Indonesia. The transmission is extremely quick, huge, and difficult to identify. Millions of people have been infected, and some have died as a result. Vaccines and medicines that are effective have yet to be discovered. This extraordinary situation deserves exceptional handling from all sides. This research attempts to explain Muhammadiyah’s humanitarian jihad by mobilizing all of its resources using an empirical method and referencing the study of social fiqh-praxis. This study illustrates Muhammadiyah’s humanitarian struggle in sustaining and safeguarding life against the real threat of Covid-19. During the management of Covid-19, their efforts resulted in religious fatwas and humanitarian initiatives by involving all resources. The rise of this humanitarian struggle is the result of a genuine and unprecedented challenge to the soul and integrity of Muhammadiyah. This kind of jihad has ramifications for worship practices, activities, and organizational actions that include the public.

Abstract

This paper examines 29 editions of comic serials portraying the struggle of one of the most influential military commanders in modern Indonesian history, General Sudirman, published from 1966-67 by the official magazine of Muhammadiyah, Suara Muhammadijah. By using a historical and comic studies approach, this research reveals that the comic aimed to arouse a feeling of Islamic patriotism among readers of the magazine. The still-ill Sudirman was visually depicted as a devout Muslim, whose patriotism and survival ability in guerrilla operations deep in Java’s forests during the Dutch-Indonesian war were illustrated as being rooted in his Islamic faith and his experience as a young member of Hizbul Wathan, Muhammadiyah’s boy scout group. This study sheds light on comics, a neglected product of Indonesian Islamic cultural history, which sought to renegotiate the important place of Islam during the Dutch-Indonesian war (1945-1949), amid the new opportunities presented by the political turmoil that occurred during the final phase of President Sukarno’s rule, when this comic was published.

Abstract

The study delves into discussions addressing the development of knowledge culture and its implications for peace and sustainable development within the Philippines. The research also looks at government policies and procedures for advancing cultural and civilizational relationships. The research seeks to explore routes for integrating knowledge initiatives that would put Muslim education in a new favorable light in the eyes of humanity by utilizing original materials such as government data, unpublished publications, and interviews. The paper recommends that the tawhidic approach be acknowledged and used to build bridges and channels of academic, scientific, and technical collaboration with other systems and educational institutions at both the local and national levels. In conclusion, the study develops the concept of knowledge integration in serving the interests of the country and beyond.

Abstract

Noorshahril Saat and Ahmad Najib Burhani (eds). 2020. The New Santri: Challenges to Traditional Religious Authority in Indonesia. Singapore: ISEAS Yusuf Ishak Institute.After the New Order, religious movements become increasingly popular both offline and online. The internet has become a medium for disseminating ideas and practices of religious patterns that are different from traditional religious authorities. On the other hand, there are increasing opportunities for transnational religious movements seeking to build their influence in Indonesia. Another interesting phenomenon is the presence of New Santri coming to color the world of da’wah in Indonesia through new media. Through this book, the authors try to explain the phenomena that are happening in the struggles for religious authority in Indonesia. This book describes at least three factors that significantly influence recent religious competitions, namely: globalization, post-Reformation democratization (after 1998), and the growth of various private television channels and social media users. These three factors have a strong impact in shaping and internalizing the construction, contestation, fragmentation, and pluralization of contemporary Indonesian religious authorities.

Abstract

Religious violent extremism remains a problem for Indonesia. Recently, three consecutive attacks carried out by violent religious extremists — a suicide bombing in front of a Cathedral Church in Makassar South Sulawesi, the discovery of several prepared high explosive bombs in Condet Jakarta, and a female lone wolf attack on the Indonesian Police Criminal Investigation Agency — shocked the public (Fakta-data di Balik Bom Bunuh Diri, 29 Maret 2021; Polisi sebut Terduga Teroris Condet & Bekasi, 2021; Teroris Penyerang Mabes Polri, 2021). It may not be surprising since there were some early indications from various studies that some Indonesian people still have religious attitudes and behaviors that are exclusive, closed, anti-citizenship, anti-state, and even pro-violence (PPIM, 2016, 2017, 2018; Puspidep, 2017, 2018). The PPIM study results (2018) show that around 58.5 percent of students tend to be religious radical, and 51.1 percent tend to be intolerant to differences within Muslim groups. Then, as many as 34.3 percent of students are intolerant to non-Muslim groups. Radical views that are intolerant toward those who are different are the first step to violent extremism. These studies are a reminder that violent extremism is a problem for all of Indonesian society. Therefore, PPIM surveyed the perceptions of the public, students, teachers, and Indonesian Members of Parliament on violent extremism.

Abstract

This article fills some of the gaps in the secondary literature about the growing Muslim presence in the Siamese capital of Ayutthaya during the mid-sixteenth century. It does so by reconstructing the arrival of Tok Takia, a miracle-working Sufi missionary who arrived from somewhere in the Indian subcontinent. The study begins with a description of the Tok Takia Complex which consists of a mosque that once was a Buddhist temple and a maqam where Tok Takia was buried in 1579 before introducing references to the former in Thai primary sources. Before dealing with details about Qadriyyah presence across the Bay of Bengal, this research reconstructs the geopolitical and commercial developments from the late fifteenth century contributing to the growth of Muslim—and specifically, Kling Muslims—presence in Ayutthaya mentioned in a range of Siamese and Portuguese primary sources. This paper presents reasons for suggesting that Tok Takia’s missionary activism was connected to the Nagore-e-Sharif complex in present-day Tamil Nadu.
Islamic Turn in Malay Historiography: Bustān al-Salāṭīn of 17th Century Aceh Burhanudin, Jajat

Abstract

Bustān al-Salāṭīn by Nūr al-Dīn al-Ranīrī (d. 1659) is a leading Malay text on Islamic history. Written in the 17th century in Aceh, one chapter of the Bustān was dedicated to the history of Aceh. This paper discusses how the Bustān described the formation of the sultanate, the rulers who were in power, their political behaviour, and the methods of statecraft they tried to establish. The text shared the emerging intellectual discourse in 17th Century Aceh, in which al-Ranīrī’s reform of Muslims’ religious practices to uphold sharī‘ah-based principles gained its prominence. With the support of his patron, Iskandar Thani (1636-1641), al-Ranīrī’s Islamizing efforts for Aceh are reflected in the Bustān. This paper argues that the Islamic ideals and terms found in the Bustān signify the history of Aceh and profile the patron, which sets Bustān apart from previous Malay texts of historical writing.
