Abstract

This study examines the complex responses to the dissolution of Hizb ut-Tahrir Indonesia (HTI), a pro-Caliphate organization, by the Indonesian government in 2017. The primary objective is to comprehensively analyze the dynamics of these responses from activists, sympathizers, and the general public. Employing a qualitative descriptive-sociological methodology with a case study approach, this research collected data through a literature review, observation, interviews, and documentation in West Java, Banten, and Jakarta. The dissolution, initiated via Perppu No. 2 of 2017, triggered diverse reactions and polarized public opinion, reflecting a broader societal rejection of the Caliphate ideology. Importantly, the study found that HTI's movement did not cease but evolved. Post-dissolution strategies include leveraging social media for discourse and issue manipulation, infiltrating other socio-political organizations, and utilizing digital platforms for clandestine cadre regeneration, particularly among university students. This research provides a comprehensive understanding of HTI's post-dissolution dynamics, contributing significantly to the literature on social movements by demonstrating movement resilience and authoritarian learning—the organization's adaptation from a public, confrontational entity to a hidden, digitally-enabled movement in response to state repression. The findings have crucial implications for deradicalization policies and highlight the intricate socio-political responses to state action against ideological groups.

Abstract

Contemporary global politics is increasingly marked by rising geopolitical tensions, fragile institutions, deepening inequality, and declining trust in international systems. Traditional Western models of governance, rooted in sovereignty and liberal internationalism, often fall short in responding to these challenges. This paper rethinks the global order through Islamic political thought, offering insights toward a more inclusive and resilient future. Islamic concepts provide distinctive perspectives on order, justice, and collective responsibility that move beyond the nation-state. Tawhid emphasizes the unity of God and the interconnectedness of creation, grounding universal ethics and accountability. Khilafah/Istikhlaf frames humanity as stewards entrusted with protecting the earth and safeguarding future generations. Maslaha (public interest) and Maqasid al-Shari’ah (higher objectives of Islamic law) operate as flexible tools to promote welfare. Shura (consultative governance) strengthens dialogue and legitimacy across borders, while the Ummah (moral community) inspires transnational solidarity. At the heart of these principles, Adl (justice) remains the foundation of any fair and legitimate system. This study employs a qualitative approach based on secondary literature, drawing from classical texts and contemporary scholarship. Findings reveal that Islamic ideas reframe sovereignty as responsibility, root legitimacy in justice, and offer ethical tools to address structural weaknesses in global governance. Far from advocating theocracy, the paper highlights Islamic thought as a resource for building a pluralistic global order and strengthening dialogue across civilizations.

Abstract

This article, Rethinking Moral Ambiguity in the Qur’an: A Descriptive–Interpretive Meta-Ethical Analysis, examines how the Qur’an constructs moral value and moral knowledge in ways that generate, rather than eliminate, ethical ambiguity. The study aims (1) to explore the ontological status of moral value in the Qur’an, (2) to analyse the epistemic relationship between reason and revelation in Qur’anic ethics, and (3) to conceptualise moral ambiguity as a hermeneutical resource for ethical deliberation. Methodologically, this research is library-based and employs a descriptive–interpretive reading of selected Qur’anic verses related to key ethical concepts such as khayr, birr, maʿrūf, ʿaql, and shukr, combined with an analytical–comparative dialogue with classical and contemporary Islamic ethical thought and meta-ethical debates on divine command theory and moral realism. The analysis shows, first, that the Qur’an affirms an objective and purposive moral order while simultaneously grounding it in divine will and teleology. Second, the Qur’an attributes a significant epistemic role to human reason and moral intuition, yet subjects them to continuous correction and guidance by revelation. Third, the Qur’an deliberately maintains moral tensions and antinomies, which function as an apparatus for moral transformation rather than a defect to be theologically resolved. The article, therefore, proposes a meta-ethical framework that understands Qur’anic moral ambiguity as intrinsic to scriptural ethics and argues that preserving rather than suppressing this ambiguity opens a productive space for contemporary Islamic ethical reasoning.

Abstract

This study revisits the complex imperial identity of Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II (Muhammad al-Fatih), to challenge the conventional portrayal of his reign as exclusively Islamic. While modern Muslim communities in Indonesia and Turkiye celebrate him as an ideal Islamic hero, a closer reading of historical sources reveals a ruler whose legitimacy emerged from a deliberate synthesis of Islamic, Byzantine, and Persian traditions—an identity best described as Islamicate. Through a critical examination of Tursun Beg’s Tarih-i Ebü’l-Feth, this study demonstrates how Intellectuals strategically wove together sacred, political and aesthetic symbols to construct Mehmed II’s authority as a universal ruler rather than a merely Muslim conqueror. By unsettling the binary of Islamic versus Christian civilizations, this study situates Mehmet II within a broader, polycentric Islamicate world and highlights the continuing relevance of his hybrid legitimacy for rethinking pluralism and political identity in contemporary Muslim societies.

Abstract

Indonesia, boasting the world's largest Muslim population, has witnessed a swift augmentation in its Muslim demographic. As of 2020, Muslims in Indonesia numbered 209 million, which surged to 219 million in 2021. Such an observation is alarming, especially given the Quran's centrality in Islamic teachings and the profound link between grasping its tenets and the capability to read and write its verses. This paper introduces an innovative application employing the Tamam method, optimized for enhancing Quranic literacy through the recognition of handwritten Arabic texts using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). Involving a cohort of 144 participants, who answered 65 questions, a dataset encompassing 3,842 data points was curated for testing and validation. Preliminary results showcased the model's evolution, with a notable rise in accuracy from 14.27% in the initial epoch to 88.87% in the 20th epoch. Despite such advancements, fluctuations in the validation data hinted at potential overfitting scenarios. This study demonstrates the feasibility of integrating the Tamam method with AI-based handwritten Arabic recognition as a supportive tool for Quranic writing practice. It paves the way for more resilient and adaptive Quranic educational tools, ensuring learners grasp the Holy Text in its true essence.

Abstract

This article examines the practice of religious moderation in Kampung Sawah, Bekasi, an area known for its high level of religious diversity and longstanding traditions of harmonious interfaith relations. Although the concept of religious moderation was formally introduced by the Indonesian Ministry of Religious Affairs only in recent years, this study finds that the community of Kampung Sawah has long embodied similar values in their everyday social practices. Using a descriptive-analytical method, the research identifies that the four key indicators of religious moderation—national commitment, tolerance, non-violence, and appreciation of local culture—are strongly reflected in the attitudes and behaviors of the community. These moderate orientations have emerged through a long socio-cultural process, shaped by value transmission within families and sustained interactions within the broader community. A central mechanism in this formation is the community’s consistent emphasis on shared identity and collective harmony over religious or cultural differences. The findings demonstrate that religious moderation can evolve organically through historical experience, cultural continuity, and community-based social relations.
