Abstract

Indonesia has a large zakat potential and has not been widely used for economic empowerment for the poor. Lazismu, as part of the national zakat institution, develops to provide solutions in zakat management in the form of economic empowerment for the poor to turn mustahiq into muzakki. This study was field research, and the data were obtained directly from the field and research objects. The research applied a normative sociological approach. This research was descriptive-analytic and clearly and in detail described the phenomena as the main problem without doing hypotheses or statistical calculations. Specifically, this research intended to describe in general the management of zakat conducted by Lazismu in Probolinggo, Jember and Pasuruan, then systematically reviewed them to achieve Lazismu’s Role strategy in poverty alleviation for the people of Probolinggo, Jember and Pasuruan, so that it was easier to understand and conclude. The results showed that the three Regional Lazismu in this study carried out the empowerment of mustahik to become muzakki with economic empowerment. Early empowerment is carried out by providing training and assistance to Mustahiq in managing productive economic businesses that are carried out sustainably. Economic empowerment for mustahiq has the potential to improve the economy to be more independent in running their business.

Abstract

This article describes how Muslims deal with fatwa through examining the extent to which Muslims in Ternate (North Maluku) respond to MUI’ fatwa concerning the application of ibadah (worship) during the Covid-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic. In order to control and prevent the infection of the virus widely, people are required to stay at home and to keep their distance from crowds, including attending congregational worship (shalat jamaah) in mosques as issued in the MUI’s fatwa. The fieldwork was conducted in Ternate between March-May 2021, using qualitative research methods through participatory observation and interview. This article shows that the obedience of Muslim society in Ternate to the MUI’s fatwa is not only determined by aspects of the religious authority of the MUI, but also by local government, local religious leaders, and pragmatic considerations of the society as well as their perception about the dangerous impact of the Covid-19.

Abstract

This study analyzes the process of integration of tawhīd  (believing in one God) values with trade tradition among the Gayo tribe, which helped to improve their economy and create a more prosperous way of life. This tribe is domiciled in the central region of Aceh, whose origins are Old Malays, and they have lived for a long time in the highlands of Gayo. Thus, they were involved in typical economic activities such as farming, gardening, fishing,  rearing of livestock, as well as household businesses and tourism, which were carried out systemically and periodically by the government and jointly supervised by agricultural experts. However, every work carried out had monotheism values with an emphasis on faith and worship because all natural resources were believed to be owned by Allah SWT. This study uses a qualitative approach in which the data collected were in the form of words, images, and not numbers. Results revealed that by capitalizing on faith and piety, the Gayo tribe believes that they can achieve happiness and blessings like the people of Gayo Land who strictly practice Islam in their daily lives and have a blessed, prosperous and dignified life from God.

Abstract

This article examines the views of Ustad Hanan Attaki (UHA) and Ustad Felix Siauw, who use social media as a medium of preaching. The utilization of the internet as a new way of preaching Islam has helped shape contemporary forms of religious thinking and behavior for Muslim youth in Indonesia. One of them is marked by the emergence of the trend of hijrah in their community. This study aimed to explain the Islamic views of UHA and Siauw, which have implications for the emergence and development of the hijrah trend. This research focuses on extracting data through observations on a number of predetermined social media accounts, field participation and interviews, and puts forward literature studies on the fragmentation of religious authority as a result of the emergence of a number of popular ustadz who use social media as a new space for preaching. Regarding the fragmentation of religious authority, this article is based on the thesis of Eickelman and Anderson, which states that the current religious authorities are those who have succeeded in transmitting religious texts and preaching them through new media. In more detail, this study discusses two important issues, namely the trend of Islamic da'wa on social media and, in particular, the implications of the Islamic views of UHA and Siauw for the emergence of the trend of hijrah Muslim youth. This article concludes that according to UHA, hijrah is a message of Islamic da'wa that not only tells about individual repentance but also as a current trend that young Muslims must follow. Meanwhile, Siauw interprets it as an effort to awaken the spirit of Muslims to achieve the establishment of the Islamic Khilafah.

Abstract

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi dan menjelaskan hubungan timbal balik atau koeksistensi antara komodifikasi Islam dan ekonomi pasar pada masyarakat Muslim Banten di Kota Serang dan Kota Cilegon. Penelitian antropologi politik ini menggunakan metode etnografi dengan fokus pada studi kasus lapangan (fieldwork case study) di Kota Serang dan Kota Cilegon, Provinsi Banten. Fokusnya adalah aktivitas-aktivitas masyarakat Muslim Banten dan bentuk-bentuk keagamaan yang menjadi komoditas pasar di organisasi atau perkumpulan Muslim baik yang eksklusif maupun non-eksklusif dan juga pengajian di perkotaan. Argumen tulisan ini adalah bahwa upaya kelompok Muslim kelas menengah perkotaan di Indonesia untuk mempertahankan dan melestarikan identitas Islam yang “sesungguhnya” dengan kembali ke Alquran dan Sunnah telah terakumulasi dalam kekuatan yang menghadirkan tantangan bagi negara dalam politik nasional dan lokal, terutama dalam pemilihan umum, pembangunan ekonomi dan masyarakat, dan urusan keagamaan. Sebagai daerah yang dipengaruhi oleh Kesultanan Banten di masa lalu, Kota Serang dan Kota Cilegon secara umum dikenal sebagai wilayah agama tradisional. Namun, kedatangan kelompok Muslim kelas menengah perkotaan baru yang kebanyakan bermigrasi dari kota-kota yang lebih besar dan lebih maju, serta munculnya generasi-generasi baru kaum Muslim di Kota Serang dan Kota Cilegon dan kota-kota sekitarnya lainnya yang tinggal di perkotaan, telah secara signifikan mengubah lanskap ekspresi budaya dan agama dan tradisi Islam di Kota Serang dan Kota Cilegon. Organisasi-organisasi keagamaan dan pengajian-pengajian di kompleks perumahan telah menjadi tempat yang signifikan untuk mendiskusikan, mempraktikkan, dan menyebarkan kombinasi budaya pop dan Islam “sesungguhnya” oleh kelas menengah Muslim yang kebanyakan tidak memiliki latar belakang pendidikan Islam dan yang relatif baru dengan ide-ide ajaran Islam. Pembuatan otoritas keagamaan secara terus-menerus melibatkan interaksi yang rumit antara dua sisi: ekspresi lokal Islam dan pemahaman dan praktik-praktik Islam asing. Akibatnya, telah terjadi fragmentasi umat, suatu kondisi yang diperburuk oleh polarisasi politik yang merajalela sejak pemilihan presiden 2014.

Abstract

Several studies show no difference in practice and academics in general between Islamic banks and conventional banks. However, they are both very different. This research analysed the perceptions of santri/students of Islamic boarding schools regarding no differences between Islamic banks and conventional banks. This research was quantitative with an in-depth descriptive analysis. The research sample used a blend of purposive and judgment techniques applied to santri from several large Islamic boarding schools in Banyuwangi. The analytical method used a two-way causative relationship using multiple regression. The research used a structured questionnaire with a Likert scale and in-depth interviews with santri. Santri's view of Islamic banks differed from that of regular banks. Santri strongly believes in Islamic banking, while the majority is not traditional but represents Islamic ideals. Islamic bank workers, nevertheless, have shown Islam's greater identity than standard banks and imply that no disparities in Islamic banks are shown to be stigmatic.

Abstract

Islamic da'wa's performance is highly influenced by the techniques and tactics used in conjunction with the preaching object. 'Aisyiyah applies a Qoryah Thayyibah group-based da’wa model that is expected to become the Brand Community Value. Each Regional Leader must enforce this program with a minimum of three supported villages. The purpose of Qoryah Thayyibah, in general, is to establish an advanced and dignified Islamic society. This study aimed to identify the implementation of the Qoryah Thayyibah program and the obstacles faced by 'Aisyiyah Ponorogo. The qualitative literary approach was used in this analysis. Accordingly, the data collection was through documentation (identification of documents), observation, and interviews. The inductive reasoning was also used in the analysis to see how the Qoryah Thayyibah program is implemented, and the conclusion was taken from the general statement to a particular statement. The primary sources were the results of interviews with the management of 'Aisyiyah Ponorogo, interviews with Qoryah Thayyibah PW East Java and PDA Ponorogo, the results of Tanwir relevant to Qoryah Thayyibah and supported by other sources, such as articles, documents or writings on the official PDA website of ‘Aisyiyah Ponorogo. 'Aisyiyah Ponorogo has successfully applied the Qoryah Thayyibah in five of the eight intended fields. They faced obstacles in several fields, including spirituality, education, economics, and health.

Abstract

This article aims to examine the social imaginary toward nationalism from theoritical and bibliographical perspectives. Recently, there has been lack of study on imagined nationalism, after Bennedict Anderson had published Imagined Communities. This study by looking at social imagination and cultural memory, will describe the development of imagined nationalism in Nusantara. It will also survey several literatures on concept of nationalism in the region. It is believed that imagined nationalism in Nusantara has been influenced by many concepts from Western scholars. Thus, study on on this issue by emphasing on cultural memory is still needed. It is argued that it is necessary to conduct more research projects on imagined nationalism in Nusantara by focussing on spirit, cosmol-ogy, system of knowledge, and values among socities.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: a) menggambarkan dinamika Islam di Surakarta menjelang terbitnya matahari Muhammadiyah di kota bengawan, b) mendeskripsikan gerak langkah sekolah Muhammadiyah di Surakarta pada kurun 1920-1970, dan c) menganalisis corak pengembangan pendidikan Muhammadiyah Surakarta. Dengan menggunakan metode sosio-historis penelitian ini berhasil menemukan hal-hal berikut. Pertama, ketika Muhammadiyah muncul di Surakarta, gerakan modernisasi Islam telah melanda kota ini; poros Kauman mendirikan madrasah Mambaul Ulum Kasunanan pada 1905 dan poros saudagar Laweyan mendirikan Sarekat Dagang Islam (SDI) pada 1911, kehadiran Muhammadiyah memberi warna pada modernisme yang berhaluan reformis. Kedua, secara garis besar gerak langkah sekolah Muhammadiyah di Surakarta selama kurun 1920-1970 dapat dipilah menjadi tiga periode, yaitu: perintisan 1920-1942, pencarian identitas 1942-1957, dan pemekaran 1957-1970. Terakhir, corak pengembangan pendidikan Muhammadiyah di Surakarta mirip pola Yogya yang lebih banyak mendirikan sekolah dari pada madrasah.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the problems of zakat governance in Indonesia, with the case study of BAZNAS in Sragen Regency. This is a qualitative research with the perspective of institutional theory. Results indicated that: (1) BAZNAS Sragen has a relatively high transaction cost due to several factors, particularly the costs of seeking information and monitoring; (2) BAZNAS Sragen conducts asymmetric information which is characterized by the lack of transparency, accountability, and fairness; (3) BAZNAS Sragen has a potential to perform opportunistic behavior in the form of political contamination in the distribution of ZIS funds. The less efficient of the governance causes the less optimal performance of BAZNAS Sragen, either in the limited amount of zakat fundraising or in its performance in empowering the poor.
