Abstract

This study aims to depict the policies of peaceful cultural coexistence implemented by the Surakarta city government over the past decade. The research addresses two main questions: (1) What regulations have been formulated by the Surakarta city government to promote cultural coexistence? (2) How has the city government enforced the regulations to ensure cultural coexistence within Surakarta society? Data were collected by examining primary and secondary sources and analyzed using the cultural coexistence theory developed by Fredrik Barth, which identifies three main elements forming peaceful cultural coexistence: adaptability, pluralism, and equity, or the fair fulfillment of basic rights. The findings show that the Surakarta city government has attempted to establish fair and inclusive regulations. However, a significant shortcoming lies in the enforcement of these regulations, particularly against radical Islamic groups that refuse to adapt and respect pluralism.  Consequently, it is essential to encourage government authorities to adopt a more assertive law-enforcement approach, ensuring that all individuals learn together, adhere to regulations, and respect differences among the various groups in society.

Abstract

This study explores the political narratives and representations of leadership by Islamic parties in two Muslim-majority countries, Malaysia and Indonesia, focusing on Parti Islam Se-Malaysia (PAS) and Partai Keadilan Sejahtera (PKS). Many studies on digital political communication and Islamic parties examine campaign effectiveness, thematic content, or leadership as represented through physical presence. However, there remains a gap in understanding how digital political narratives function as a medium to represent leadership in digital spaces or on the party’s official website. This research employs qualitative content analysis along with in-depth interviews. This combination of methods provides a comprehensive understanding of perspectives and insights. Data were collected three months before the general elections in each country, focusing on each party’s website. The study also interviewed 7 student leaders from each country, for a total of 14 participants. The results show that PAS and PKS effectively use their official websites to strengthen their content image and highlight issues across social, political, economic, and religious themes. Student leaders’ views further indicate that digital content plays a crucial role in shaping public perceptions of party leadership and its influence during elections. This research also contributes theoretically by integrating agenda-setting theory and transformational leadership as strategic analytical approaches in political communication in the digital era.

Abstract

The Muslim personality represents a crucial synthesis of various components, including aqidah (faith), akhlaq (Islamic ethics), sharia (Islamic law), ibadah (Islamic worship), and other relevant aspects. Devout Muslims prioritize virtues such as compassion, integrity, humility, and respect in their daily lives. Additionally, their personalities are influenced by teachings that emphasize empathy, generosity, and mindfulness. This research seeks to outline the necessity of developing a Muslim Personality Model specifically tailored for Hijrah’s Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in Malaysia, particularly in relation to lesbian, gay, and transgender communities. Using a qualitative approach, the study conducted semi-structured interviews with four experts, deliberately selected based on specific criteria. Thematic analysis was applied to the interview data, involving transcription, coding, and theme identification from verbatim responses. The findings indicate a significant need to develop the Muslim Personality Model within Hijrah NGOs. The study emphasizes that essential elements such as aqidah, sharia, and akhlaq are integral to this model. The proposed model is designed to assist Hijrah NGOs in nurturing enhanced Muslim identities, which is considered vital. Recommendations include a subsequent phase focused on the design and development of the model, utilizing the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) to achieve consensus among experts regarding the construct and item development. The final phase will involve a usability evaluation with end users from the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM), State Religious Council, and Hijrah NGOs, including Muhajirah Wafiq (MW) (2019), Pertubuhan Insaf Pahang (PIP) (2013), Pertubuhan Islah Movement (PIM) (2016), and Pertubuhan Hijrah RepubliQue Network (PHRN) (2014).

Abstract

The growing waste crisis has emerged as a pressing environmental challenge in Indonesia, driven by rapid urbanization, the growth of the food and beverage industry, and persistent improper disposal practices. Although Islamic environmental discourse has gained increasing normative recognition, much of the existing scholarship focuses on theological formulations rather than on how religious values are enacted in everyday environmental practices. Furthermore, studies of environmental movements often pay limited attention to the role of religion and gender in shaping grassroots collective action. To address this gap, this article examines how Muslim women leverage Islamic values in community-based waste activism. Drawing on qualitative research conducted between July and September 2023—including participant observation, focus group discussions, and in-depth interviews with Muslim women environmental activists across several Islamic institutions—this study approaches Islam as lived religion embedded in civic practice. The findings indicate that waste management is framed not merely as a technical issue but as both a civic responsibility and a religious obligation grounded in Islamic notions of stewardship, cleanliness, and moral accountability. Waste banks emerge not only as mechanisms for waste reduction but also as social spaces for collective learning, community mobilization, leadership formation, and women’s economic empowerment. By positioning waste management as a domain where religion, gender, and civic engagement intersect, this study argues that Muslim women’s initiatives constitute a form of civic environmentalism in which Islamic values are mobilized as moral resources to address contemporary patterns of consumption and waste. This study contributes to the sociology of religion and gendered environmental activism in contemporary Indonesia by demonstrating how environmental responsibility is enacted through everyday religious practice and grassroots-level institutional innovation.

Abstract

Suicide terrorism in Indonesia has increasingly involved family units, revealing a shift in the dynamics of radicalization and the reproduction of extremist ideologies within domestic spaces. This study aims to analyze how familial suicide terrorism emerges and is sustained by examining the narratives that shape the everyday lives of radicalized families. Using a qualitative approach based on document analysis, media reports, and academic research on family-linked attacks over the past two decades, with limited field observation and semi-structured interviews with six former Jemaah Islamiyah members in five Indonesian cities, this study explores how colonial legacies, state violence, and global counterterrorism discourses intersect with local experiences of marginalization. Data were examined through an iterative dual-path strategy integrating thematic coding, narrative analysis, cross-case comparison, and decolonial interpretation. The findings show that familial suicide terrorism is not merely the result of ideological indoctrination but is embedded in intergenerational trauma, affective bonds, and the normalization of violence within intimate settings. The study argues that decolonizing the dominant narratives of terrorism—by foregrounding local histories, structural inequalities, and lived experiences—offers a more nuanced understanding of why entire families become agents of violent extremism. It contributes to terrorism studies by foregrounding Indonesian perspectives and proposing more culturally sensitive, family-centered, and community-based approaches to prevention and counter-radicalization.
