Abstract

This research examines the the impact of modernity that has been reshaping Muslims’ lives in Muslim societies. It particularly examines various impact of modernity such as colonialism, secularism, liberalism, and Westernisation that led Islamists to worry about the decreasing role that Islam was playing in society and in the state. Their worry about the absence of Islam in the public sphere led the Islamists to become the front line da’wa group, intensively countering the impact of modernisation in the Islamic world. This research is examined through qualitative approach combining observation and review texts. Reviewing the relevant texts and observation to the contemporary da’wa movements and individuals are conducted within both fieldwork and desk work. As the result of this research, I argue that the Islamists are the most ‘active’ Islamic da’wa movement in the modern societies including in Indonesia. Activism is their core da’wa characteristics that routinely calls on Muslims to respond to the impact of Western power. Their da’wa, therefore, is an activist ideology. This research contributes to the contemporary da’wa discourses and movements in the Muslim world.

Abstract

This article examines the preacher's professionalism in the dynamics of social change in the Dumai Muballigh (Muslim Preacher)Association (PMD). The development of information technology is one of the causes of social changes that occur and currently shows the complexity of the problems faced by the people and preachers. Da'wah as a call, invitation, and appeal is expected to be transformed to be relevant to any changes that occur. This requires professional preachers to be able to become agents of change. In preaching, the development of preaching resources is emphasized on various aspects such as material, mental, skills, knowledge, and psychic. The results showed that the effort to create professional preachers in the PMD is doing human resource development through muzakarah and preaching guidance to strengthen science and skills, training and use of IT (Information Technology) as a form of transformation, conducting preaching certification as an effort to assess and qualify the quality of preachers' abilities, improving education levels through further education cooperation agreements among preachers and companies, universities and government, and the development of contemporary preaching material through the study of books, and hadith.

Abstract

Surau is an Islamic education institution that is the prototype of other Islamic educational institutions in Minangkabau. Historically, the existence of surau began to decline due to modernization which permeated the Islamic world. The evolution of the Islamic education system from halaqah to classical, changes in curriculum, levels in the world of education, mixing of Islamic education with basic colonial lessons and so on are the effects of modernization and the development of the technology industry in the early 20th century and the millennial era today. The evolution of Islamic education in Minangkabau is caused by several factors, including the modernization of ideology and the influence of culture from other regions, the developing system of government, and the rapid advances in industrial technology. The method used is library research with historical and philological approaches.

Abstract

This article discusses the life, struggle, and personality of Abdul Kahar Muzakki in 2019 was appointed as a National Hero. This study is based on the fact that information and studies on figures who play essential roles and contributions in the journey of the Indonesian nation are minimal. As a result, it is not uncommon for people to mistake and confuse him with another figure, Abdul Kahar Muzakkar, who is a DI/TII figure. Therefore, the article adapted from a scientific lecture was translated and presented again for today's audience. The first discussion focused on the early formative period of Abdul Kahar Muzakkir and his work in the world of education and national politics. Then, this article discusses Abdul Kahar Muzakkir's position and role in the dynamics of the Islamist movement and political exemplary at the local and national level. By seeing his example in attitude, religion, and politics, the writer can even refute the views of Harry J. Benda and Clifford Geertz who argued that Indonesian politics is based on contestation between priyayi, secular, and Islam (H.J. Benda) or exclusive politics (C.J. Geertz). Abdul Kahar Muzakkir's personality and political role show that politics is also a battle between authorities and ordinary folks where Islam acts as a source of inspiration and moral aspirations for people to realize a just and prosperous society.

Abstract

In recent years, the study of the influence of religion on the economy is rising. However, in Indonesian context there is limited number of literature that specifically explores the relationship between religion and economic. To fill this gap, this article aims to investigate the effect of religion –with religious institutions as proxies- on economic growth using panel data from 2010 to 2017 of selected provinces. This model based on the Cobb-Douglas model and estimated using fixed-effects. The result shows that economic growth positive significantly affected by Protestant and Hindu variables. On other side, there in no strong evidence that Islam and Catholic have siginificant impact on economic growth. This paper does not claim that one religion is better than others in terms of economic activity, as measured by economic growth, but rather on how the role of religious institutions on social networks encourage economic growth. An important point of this paper is that in Indonesian context, religion has significant influences on the economic growth as in many other countries. Keywords: Religion, economic growth, Indonesia, fixed-effects

Abstract

Western epistemology was greatly influenced by Greek philosophical ideas. In the course of history, Epistemology has been dominated by patterns of thought that are rational, secular and free from religious values and beliefs. History shows that the Western Epistemology turned into a large school that became dominant: in the form of rationalism, empiricism, criticism, and intuition. Although it has various methods and approaches to acquire knowledge, in principle the building and its foundation have the same way of thinking that comes from a philosophy that upholds the mind and also relies on human sensory abilities. The West denies revelation as a source of knowledge and for Islam, revelation is the highest source of knowledge. Authentic revelation is the Qur'an and Hadith. The result of this paper shows Western epistemology has a foundation and roots that are based on philosophical thinking that is far from the touch of religious values. Western epistemology in its manifestations is then limited to the acquisition of knowledge about the visible world such as sensory nature and not touching on other realms. Western epistemology focuses more on reason and senses as the main source of science, dichotomization, anthropocentrism, opposition to the spiritual dimension, relentless uncertainty, secularization, desacralization, and empiricism. While tthe Islamic epistemology views both sensory and metaphysical objects and recognizes the three sources of knowledge at once namely senses, reason, intuition. Each of these sources has different levels of ability so they cannot be separated and must be used proportionally. The object of knowledge in Islam is not only empirical, but also metaphysical. The source of knowledge in Islam is also different from Western epistemology. If the West only recognizes the senses and ratios, then in the Muslim view, knowledge comes from God obtained through: the senses are healthy, khabar sadiq, and intuition.

Abstract

Since Muslimah fashion has risen in the world, many companies are showing Muslim women who wear veiling their advertisements, including American brands advertisements. They are Nike, American Eagle, Covergirl, Fenty Beauty, and Gap. This case is important to be discussed, because it is completely opposite. America is well-known as Islamophobia country and hijab-Muslim woman as an identity of Islam religion. Therefore, the study aims to reveal the meaning of the Muslimah model in these advertisements. The method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive method and applies Roland Barthes semiotic theory and religification of commodities theory. This research found the meanings of Muslimah models refer to the current phenomena of Muslimah life such as the modern beauty and lifestyle of Muslimah, and the freedom in showing their status and skill, and the diversity in the representation of woman beauty. Three myths (ideologies) found in this research are a deconstruction of a negative stereotype of Muslimah in America, beauty standard, and egalitarianism values. Therefore, this research argues that the advertisement is an underground movement of Muslim women as their resistance to negative stigmas in American society by expressing their identities, ability, and egalitarianism values.
