Abstract

This research aims to examine the process of reflective personal dakwah in efforts toward deradicalization and the social reintegration of former terrorism convicts (ex-napiter) in Pohuwato Regency, Gorontalo Province, as carried out by a religious counselor (hereinafter referred to by the pseudonym Ustadz Wisno) toward seven ex-napiter. This approach emphasizes empathetic communication, spiritual accompaniment, and a humanizing space for reflection. The method used is reflective-participatory ethnography, in which the researcher acts as an insider-adjacent observer who follows, documents, and reflects upon the dakwah process carried out by the religious counselor, rather than as a direct practitioner of that dakwah. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and field notes over the period 2023–2025. The findings show that reflective personal dakwah contributed to the building of trust, verbal statements of ideological transformation, and the strengthening of social participation among the ex-napiter within the framework of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI). This research explicitly distinguishes between disengagement (changes in behavior and social involvement, which are observed more strongly in this study) and deradicalization (profound changes in ideological attitudes and beliefs, the verbal expressions of which need to be read with caution given the methodological limitations in verifying their depth). In conclusion, reflective personal dakwah is a promising humanity-based approach in supporting disengagement and post-sentence social reintegration, with certain elements that have the potential to be replicated by other religious counselors, although the sustainability and depth of ideological transformation require further, more systematic study.

Abstract

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) has brought fundamental change to human life while simultaneously presenting complex ethical challenges: algorithmic bias, dehumanization, data misuse, and a crisis of moral accountability. Within the context of a plural and multicultural society, these challenges are not merely technical in dimension but also touch upon the realm of religious values, moderation, and social harmony as seen in various cases of generative AI-produced content (images, text, and synthetic audio) that have sparked religious controversy in Indonesia's digital space, ranging from representations of religious figures and symbols deemed inappropriate to fake sermons or fatwas generated by AI and circulated on social media. This research aims to analyze AI ethics through the lens of hadith by affirming moral responsibility as the foundation of religious moderation in the digital era. Using a qualitative approach with library research methods and hadith hermeneutic analysis, the study examines primary sources from the Kutub al-Sittah along with their commentaries (syarah), as well as contemporary literature on AI ethics and Islamic moderation. The findings show that the principles of AI ethics justice, transparency, accountability, beneficence, and non-maleficence share strong points of convergence with the values of the Prophet's hadith. The hadith on leadership accountability (HR. Bukhari-Muslim), the principle of lā ḍarar wa lā ḍirār (HR. Ibn Mājah), and the hadith on itqan (HR. al-Baihaqi) not only provide an ethical foundation for AI development, but also affirm the principle of wasaṭiyyah (the middle path) as the basis for moderation in technology governance. The resulting Islamic AI Ethics framework offers moral guidance for developers, users, and regulators so that AI may contribute to universal benefit, avoid digital radicalization, and reinforce the role of Islam as rahmatan lil-'ālamīn.

Abstract

This research examines the convergence of global communication ethics and digital literacy within the context of English Language Teaching (ELT) in the cyber era, grounded in the values of Islamic moderation (Islam Washathiyah). The study takes the form of an analytical-critical literature review reinforced by global empirical data on the contemporary digital landscape. The main conceptual contribution of this research lies in the repositioning of Washathiyah: not merely as a complementary value or ethical qualifier to existing Western frameworks of digital literacy and intercultural competence, but as an epistemological principle that reshapes how those frameworks are understood and operationalized. By integrating the Spectrum Concept of the Self theory, the framework of intercultural communicative competence, and critical digital literacy models, this research argues that the greatest threats within the digital ecosystem ranging from disinformation and hate speech to online radicalization are manifestations of a systemic ethical crisis. Data show that Indonesia, with 212 million active internet users and a digital literacy ranking of 64th out of 100 countries, stands at a critical crossroads between digital opportunity and threat. The findings identify three Washathiyah-based protective mechanisms that are genuinely novel in their framing: (1) critical digital literacy as an epistemological shield against disinformation, rooted in the principle of tabayyun rather than merely borrowed from it; (2) intercultural communicative competence grounded in the values of ta'aruf and tasamuh, which reconstructs not merely supplements Byram's ICC model; and (3) the design of a moderate virtual learning space (the WASH Framework), which positions teachers as facilitators of digital ethics. The implications of this research extend beyond the ELT context and offer a framework for the entire Muslim educational ecosystem in the cyber era.

Abstract

This research presents an academic synthesis of religious moderation (Wasatiyyah) as a preventive intervention against psychopathology, grounded in Muhammad U. Faruque's multidimensional self model. The normative foundation of Wasatiyyah is rooted in the concept of maqashid al-shariah as formulated by classical scholars, including Ibn 'Asyur in Maqashid al-Syari'ah al-Islamiyyah and Yusuf Al-Qaradawi in Al-Shahwah al-Islamiyyah, both of whom regard balance (wasath) as both the objective of the shariah and a principle for the protection of the soul (hifzh al-nafs). From the perspective of Islamic psychology, moderation is understood not merely as a sociopolitical compromise, but as a clinical necessity that can be operationalized through measurable psychological indicators, such as moderate religiosity scales, dogmatism scales (Rokeach, 1960), and the Religious Moderation Assessment (RMA), in order to maintain balance among the bio-physiological, cognitive, and spiritual dimensions of the human being. This analysis highlights that extremism arises from a “spectrum error,” in which the individual reduces the transcendent subjectivity of the “I” into a rigid and closed ideological object. By integrating Abu Zayd al-Balkhi's classical medical tradition in his work Masalih al-Abdan wa al-Anfus with the practice of Tajarrud (self-detachment) from the Sunni Sufi tradition, this research proposes a new framework for holistic mental health. The method employed is an analytical-critical literature review of primary sources in Islamic psychology and the philosophy of the soul. The findings show that the Wasatiyyah approach is clinically proven to protect human moral agency and to facilitate the attainment of Qalb Salim as the highest condition of mental health in the Islamic tradition. The implications of this research include recommendations for mental health practitioners and educators in Muslim communities to adopt the principle of moderation as a methodology for psychological intervention grounded in Islamic spiritual values.

Abstract

The Belangar tradition is a cultural heritage practiced by the Sasak community in Lombok, reflecting a syncretism between Islamic values and local wisdom. This study aims to examine the role of Belangar in strengthening social solidarity and aligning religious values with local culture, employing the theory of religious-cultural syncretism and Durkheim's theory of collective ritual as the epistemological foundation for reading the relationship between ritual practice and social cohesion. Unlike previous studies on Belangar, which tend to be descriptive, this research offers novelty by exploring the internal tensions between Belangar practices and more puritanical religious views, as well as critically analyzing the adaptation of this tradition in the digital era. Utilizing a qualitative approach and case study methodology, data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentary analysis. The findings indicate that Belangar serves not only as a religious ritual but also as a platform for enhancing social bonds within the community, involving various social strata, including the youth, who now leverage social media to promote this rich and meaningful tradition. The results depict the adaptation of the Belangar tradition in the face of modernization, where the use of digital technology helps maintain the relevance of local culture. This research underscores the importance of cultural education to ensure the continuity of local values in a modern context. As a symbol of unity and social concern, Belangar reflects the dynamics between culture and religion in the lives of the Sasak people.
