Abstract

This study aimed to investigate how Sharia hotels in Indonesia institutionalized Islamic values, including Green Islam, the principles of anti-isrāf (avoiding extravagance), anti-tabdhīr (avoiding wastefulness), and Islamic philanthropy, within food waste management practices. Drawing on a comparative case study of seven Sharia hotels in Aceh, West Nusa Tenggara, and Yogyakarta, the study found that the implementation of the values varied according to institutional capacity, leadership, and regional waste governance. The result showed that Sharia-hotel certification does not yet address food waste management. It further contributed to Islamic studies and sustainable tourism scholarship, as well as underscored the potential of Sharia hotels to serve as pioneers of halal tourism and drivers of environmental sustainability in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, by outlining micro-level practices in Sharia hotels.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of Islamic ethical discourse into Indonesian foreign policymaking in relation to Palestine, specifically in responses to the Gaza crisis. It traces Indonesia’s engagement with both normative ideals and pragmatic strategies in domestic and international contexts. Drawing on primary sources, including United Nations (UN) and International Court of Justice (ICJ) statements, this study examines the significance of Islam Wasatiyah (Moderate Islam) and pluralist-democracy for Indonesia’s international standing. This study suggests that Indonesian foreign policy balances ethical idealism and realist statecraft aimed at projecting soft power to the global south and act as a responsible state on the international stage. However, this dual objective presents Jakarta with the risk of a credibility gap as ethical commitments encounter structural barriers and great‑power politics. By examining Indonesia’s Gaza diplomacy, this study offers new insights on how Islamic ethical statecraft can reinforce humanitarian and legal norms while remaining constrained by the very multilateral structures it seeks to humanise.

Abstract

Amid the threat of a triple planetary crisis (climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss), the Waste Charity Movement (Gerakan Sedekah Sampah or GSS), initiated by Muhammadiyah, can be considered the praxis of liberation ecotheology under banner green Islam. Developed collectively, it responds to this crisis while promoting social-religious responsibility and economic solidarity. This article demonstrates how Muhammadiyah’s GSS as preliminary initiative actively advances waste management in Indonesia. Drawing on discourse analysis of Muhammadiyah affiliated media, this study illuminates the involvement of Islamic organizations in waste charity initiatives. It offers two key implications: theoretically, it highlights Muhammadiyah’s contribution to addressing planetary crises through education and empowerment within waste charity; practically, it proposes a novel pedagogical approach to mitigating these crises.

Abstract

The concept of environmentalism in Islam, often referred to as religious environmentalism or green Islam, is gaining popularity in response to growing environmental concerns. The concept of green Islam is rooted in the idea that Islam is inevitably linked with ethical and spiritual responsibility to address complex environmental challenges. According to the National Waste Management Information System (2025), unmanaged waste makes up 66% of all waste, and over 60% of Indonesia’s major rivers are categorized as moderately to severely contaminated (Ministry of Environment and Forestry, 2024). Within the context of Indonesia, Muslim communities are increasingly impacted by environmental crises. Therefore, the Center for the Study of Islam and Society (PPIM) UIN Jakarta is conducting capacity-building for pro environmental pesantren to promote the initiation of environmental programs in pesantren. This capacity-building focuses on improving management, resources, and a curriculum that integrates environmental aspects, thereby enabling pesantren to actively contribute towards sustainable development and maintain the ecosystem balance in nearby areas. This activity also promotes the role of pesantren as agents of social change with emphasis on the environment.

Abstract

This article explores the journey of Zayn al-Dīn al-Malībārī’s (d. 1522) Hidāyat al-adhkiyā’ from Malabar to Indonesia as a “traveling text". Combining historical-philological approaches with digital exploration, it maps three media regimes (manuscript, print, and online platforms) and their effects on authority and pedagogy in pesantren. In its early Indonesian reception, scholars reauthorized this Sufi text through commentaries (sharḥ), poetic interpretation, and interlinear translation (ngalogat/ngapsahi), anchoring meaning to local needs. Print capitalism and pesantren publishers then expanded circulation beyond traditional kiai-santri networks. In the era of live streaming, serialized religious lectures delivered in Indonesia’s linguistic varieties transform textual consumption, shifting from closed, ijāzah-based study to monetized, scheduled content, while reconfiguring figures of authority, audiences, and the knowledge economy. The findings reveal an ongoing vernacularization that crosses linguistic, institutional, and technological boundaries, renegotiating relations among Sufism, markets, and the contemporary Muslim.

Abstract

This article examines Javanese-Pegon manuscripts containing ruwatan (exorcism ritual) narratives preserved and actively used within Muslim communities in Jember, East Java, as integral elements of ritual practice. While Islamic manuscript studies have largely focused on explicitly Islamic texts, these materials demonstrate how pre-Islamic traditions continue to be integrated into Muslim ritual life. Existing studies on Javanese exorcism traditions have generally overlooked ruwatan manuscripts, particularly those employed in living ritual contexts. Drawing on philological and ethnographic approaches, this article analyzes manuscripts regarded as ancestral heritage and sustained within local religious life. Their continued use shows that negotiated interpretations enable Muslims to maintain cultural continuity without undermining theological integrity. Rather than representing a simple kind of syncretism, this process reflects a dialogical engagement that allows inherited cultural knowledge to coexist with Islamic piety. By treating these manuscripts as living heritage, the study offers insights into the preservation of manuscript culture within plural religious settings.

Abstract

This study analyzes Muhammadiyah and the organization of the orphan care in the Dutch East Indies in colonial Indonesia. This study, using various primary sources in Indonesian and Dutch, suggests that the number of native orphans increased during the colonial period and Muhammadiyah responded to it by establishing orphanages. Muhammadiyah believes that taking care of orphans is God’s command and that it is a social responsibility of fellow Muslims and Indonesians. It managed the orphanages professionally by creating effective organizational management, building proper facilities, and providing orphans with shelter, foods, clothes, psychological support, education, and life skills. This care resulted in the orphans becoming financially independent and being able to contribute to the wider community when they left their orphanage. This study discusses Muhammadiyah’s endeavors in saving Indonesian orphans amidst Dutch colonialism and the rise of Islamic modernism in Indonesia.

Abstract

This article examines the 1913 labour conflict at the Young & Gill machine factory in Surabaya to reconsider the role of Islam insubaltern politics in the colonial city. The conflict did not originate from ideological mobilisation or organisational command but from a moral judgment formed at the intersection of everyday religious practice and colonial industrial time discipline. A modest request to observe the Maulid Nabi—articulated without economic or political demands—was interpreted as a challenge to labour authority, leading to the dismissal of a trusted intermediary and a prolonged strike that neither Sarekat Islam nor colonial institutions could contain. Through a subaltern reading of colonial newspapers, administrative correspondence, and legal records, the article argues that Islam functioned as a living moral language through which workers evaluated justice, legitimacy, and the limits of authority in everyday life. This perspective challenges organisation-centred and ideology driven historiographies and highlights the importance of lived religious practice in the formation of popular politics in colonial urban settings.

Abstract

The existing fiqh and state laws in Indonesia construct men as the leader and the family breadwinner and women as the housewife who takes care of the household. The current data show that there has been increasing divorce rate, and the number of divorces initiated by women is roughly three times higher than divorces initiated by men. This means more women than men were unhappy with their marriage. The main reason for most cases of divorce is economic problems in which the husbands are unable or unwilling to provide for the family, leaving women to have multiple burdens of providing for the family and take care of the household. This shows that the ideal gender construction in the existing fiqh and laws is neither fair nor realistic. This article aims at challenging the patriarchal fiqh and laws (the 1974 Marriage Law and the 1991 Compilation of Islamic Law) and offers a new reading of fiqh and laws which support an equal partnership between husband and wife.

Abstract

This review argues that Adam Bobbette’s The Pulse of the Earth: Political Geology in Java, published by Duke University Press in 2023, makes an important contribution not only to the history of science but also to the study of Islam in Southeast Asia. Rather than treating Islam merely as the cultural background of Javanese society, Bobbette demonstrates that Islamic cosmology, Muslim saints (wali), and religious understandings of volcanic landscapes actively participated in the production of modern geological knowledge during the colonial period. Through the concept of political geology, the book challenges diffusionist narratives that portray modern earth sciences as products of Europe alone and instead reveals the co-production of geological knowledge through encounters among Dutch colonial scientists, Javanese Muslim traditions, Hindu-Buddhist cosmologies, and local intellectual practices. This review argues that the book deserves attention from scholars of Southeast Asian Islam because it expands how we understand the relationship between Islam, science, colonialism, and environmental knowledge.
