Abstract

This article examines the digitalization of the Living Qur’an in Indonesia by analyzing how Qur’anic knowledge is produced, circulated, authorized, and received through digital platforms. The study responds to a central scholarly problem: digital media have expanded public access to Qur’anic learning, yet they have also transformed the basis of religious authority, interpretive legitimacy, and everyday Qur’anic reception. Using a qualitative research design that combines digital ethnography and qualitative content analysis, this study analyzes publicly available Qur’anic discourse on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Indonesian tafsir websites, including long-form tafsir lectures, short-form Qur’anic content, digital tafsir materials, and audience interactions. The findings show that digital platforms have become new infrastructures of Qur’anic knowledge, making the Qur’an searchable, portable, shareable, and continuously embedded in everyday digital life. The study also finds that tafsir authority is no longer shaped solely by sanad, scholarly credentials, pesantren affiliation, or institutional recognition, but is increasingly negotiated through media visibility, communicative style, audience trust, and algorithmic circulation. Furthermore, digital Qur’anic knowledge increasingly shifts from textual-systematic tafsir toward practical moral pedagogy addressing worship, family life, anxiety, repentance, social ethics, and personal spirituality. Digital audiences also participate in constructing Qur’anic reception through comments, questions, sharing, and public engagement. The article contributes theoretically by extending Living Qur’an studies into digital religion scholarship and proposing digital Qur’anic reception as a mediated socio-religious formation shaped by scripture, authority, technology, and participatory audiences.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of digital platforms has fundamentally transformed the production, circulation, and public reception of Islamic legal authority in contemporary Indonesia. Although previous studies have extensively examined digital religion and online religious communication, limited attention has been devoted to understanding how platform-mediated environments reshape competing claims to Islamic legal legitimacy. This study investigates the controversy surrounding the fatwa on salam lintas agama (interfaith greetings) issued following the Ijtima’ Ulama Komisi Fatwa Se-Indonesia VIII in 2024 to explain how diverse actors negotiate religious authority within digital public spheres. Employing a qualitative interpretive approach, the research analyzes the official fatwa document together with purposively selected YouTube videos representing institutional Islamic organizations, independent kyai, state-affiliated actors, and cultural public intellectuals. The data were examined through non-participant digital document analysis, reflexive thematic analysis, and critical discourse analysis, informed by mediatization theory, Bourdieu’s concept of symbolic capital, and Actor-Network Theory. The findings demonstrate that the principal transformation of Indonesia’s digital fatwa ecosystem lies not in replacing classical jurisprudential reasoning but in reconfiguring the mechanisms through which religious authority is recognized, negotiated, and publicly legitimized. Institutional organizations continue to rely on collective legal deliberation, whereas individual kyai, state actors, and cultural figures mobilize distinct forms of symbolic authority shaped by platform visibility and communicative affordances. The study proposes the concept of Hybrid Digital Islamic Legal Authority, arguing that contemporary Islamic legal legitimacy emerges through the interaction between classical jurisprudential foundations and platform logic, thereby extending theoretical debates in digital religion and Islamic legal authority.

Abstract

This study examines how the Living Qur’an is practiced through religious authority and Qur’anic pedagogy at Ma’had Al-Jami’ah UIN Ar-Raniry, Indonesia. While Ma’had Al-Jami’ah has become a common institutional model in Indonesian Islamic higher education, its operation within Aceh’s distinctive socio-religious context offers an important case for understanding how pesantren-based Qur’anic formation is negotiated in a modern university. The study addresses the tendency to treat taḥsīn and Qur’anic learning primarily as technical processes of improving recitation, while overlooking their broader role in producing religious subjectivity, moral discipline, and embodied authority. Employing a qualitative case study design, the research draws on observation, semi-structured interviews with Ma’had administrators, Qur’anic teachers, students, and alumni, as well as institutional documentation and placement test data. The findings show that Ma’had Al-Jami’ah functions as an institutional space where the Qur’an is lived through taḥsīn, talqīn, taḥfīẓ, worship habituation, moral supervision, and emotional-psychomotor pedagogy. Religious authority is constructed through the teacher’s voice, correction, repetition, textual reference, and direct teacher-student interaction. The study also reveals that students’ Qur’anic literacy is uneven, shaped by prior educational backgrounds, institutional classification, learning duration, and everyday academic pressures. Theoretically, this article expands Living Qur’an studies by showing that Qur’anic reception is not only ritual or communal, but also institutional, pedagogical, embodied, and socially differentiated. It contributes to Qur’anic studies, lived Islam, pesantren studies, and Islamic higher education by demonstrating how the Qur’an becomes lived within the disciplined structure of a pesantren campus.

Abstract

This article examines the Sunni–Shia question in Indonesia as a site for understanding how intra-Muslim difference is negotiated within Indonesian lived Islam. Rather than treating Sunni–Shia tension merely as a theological or sectarian conflict, the study situates it within broader transformations of religious authority, institutional discourse, public morality, and everyday Muslim social life. The article aims to analyze how three major Islamic organizations the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI), Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), and Muhammadiyah construct, mediate, and recontextualize religious authority in responding to Sunni–Shia difference. Methodologically, the study employs a qualitative documentary case study approach, drawing on official fatwas, organizational statements, institutional publications, human rights reports, and relevant scholarly literature. The data are analyzed through qualitative content analysis and thematic interpretation, guided by the concepts of lived religion, religious authority, and Muslim politics. The findings show that MUI represents a normative-regulative model of authority through fatwa and doctrinal boundary-making; NU represents a cultural-mediative model through pesantren networks, kiai authority, and the ethics of ukhuwah and tasāmuḥ; while Muhammadiyah represents an educational-civic model through religious moderation, Islamic education, public reasoning, and Islam Berkemajuan. The article argues that Indonesian Islamic authority is plural, layered, and context-dependent. Its main contribution lies in reframing the Sunni–Shia question not as a marginal sectarian issue, but as a critical lens for understanding how lived Islam is transformed through competing yet interconnected forms of religious authority.

Abstract

Islamic social finance institutions are increasingly expected to transform religious philanthropy into accountable, professional, and socially impactful governance. However, many zakāh institutions continue to face challenges related to human resource competence, professional standardization, institutional accountability, and measurable performance outcomes. This study examines competency-based human resource governance in LAZNAS Dewan Dakwah Indonesia by analyzing how internal training, competency certification, organizational learning, and KPI-based accountability interact within zakāh management. Employing a qualitative single-case study design, the research draws on semi-structured interviews, non-participant observation, and institutional documentation covering internal training programs, SKKNI-based certification, amil professionalization, and performance governance practices between 2021 and 2024. The findings show that internal training functions as a mechanism of human capital formation by strengthening amil technical competence, digital fundraising capacity, financial reporting literacy, ethical awareness, and service orientation. Competency certification provides external validation that standardizes professional capacity and enhances institutional credibility. The integration of training and certification generates a broader governance effect through peer learning, mentoring, and the circulation of professional norms. Nevertheless, the incomplete implementation of Key Performance Indicators reveals an unfinished accountability agenda, as competence and certification have not yet been fully translated into measurable institutional outcomes. The study contributes to Islamic social finance scholarship by reconceptualizing amil training and certification as components of competency-based HR governance rather than isolated human resource development activities. It argues that effective zakāh governance requires the integration of competence formation, professional legitimacy, organizational learning, and accountability-based performance measurement.

Abstract

This study examines the optimization of zakāh collection through banking-integrated payment services in Indonesia, focusing on how BAZNAS RI uses Integrated Marketing Communication (IMC) to transform zakāh payment from a religious obligation into digitally mediated public participation. Although Islamic banking has strategic potential to support zakāh collection through ATM, mobile banking, and other payment channels, its role remains underutilized because public awareness, digital literacy, campaign personalization, and institutional communication are not yet fully optimized. This study aims to analyze how banking services can strengthen zakāh collection when supported by an integrated communication strategy and the Customer Path 5A model. Employing a qualitative case study, the research draws on interviews with BAZNAS RI officials and source triangulation tracking four (4) digital-savvy muzakkī with diverse channel preferences (mobile banking, QRIS, website, and corporate payroll autodebit). The empirical findings demonstrate that synchronized multi-channel IMC tools effectively expand visibility during the Aware and Appeal stages. Furthermore, structural integrations with Islamic banking interfaces (e.g., BYOND by BSI and OCTO Mobile) and corporate payroll systems minimize transaction friction, enabling critical donors to transition smoothly from the Ask to the Act phase. Continuous post-transaction engagement via automated receipts subsequently reinforces trust, converting regular donors into active advocates. Processed financial data corroborates this trajectory, illustrating a valid positive growth trend where aggregate collection expanded by 28.3% by the end of 2024, driven by a 34.6% increase in retail zakāh. This study demonstrates that synchronized communication and banking accessibility are central to optimizing digital retail philanthropy.
