There are three arguments underlying Islamic parties’ coalition: ideological similarity, political pragmatism, and compromise through ideological similarity and political pragmatism. Ideological coalition is formed with, the similarities between party platforms. Meanwhile, the coalition formed with political pragmatism is mostly to gain political position and advantages. Admittedly, There are also coalitions formed due to combinations of both factors.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the thoughts of Javanese Muslims on cockfighting in the nineteenth and the early twentieth centuries. It has been a custom and culture since humans domesticated chickens. At first, it had a sacred connotation. It eventually devolved into a profane gamble. Although Islam banned animals fighting and gambling, the tradition continued during the Islamic era. This study examines (1) the reasons why Javanese Muslim culture enjoys cockfighting, (2) the forms of Javanese Muslim thought about cockfighting in Javanese manuscripts from the nineteenth and the early twentieth centuries, (3) its influence on colonial and royal rule in Java. Research showed that some thoughts normalized cockfighting and cockfight gambling, but some viewed the game as an evil deed during the nineteenth and the early twentieth centuries.

Abstract

This article examines the communication process of Islamic proselytising (da‘wa) carried out by Abdul Somad, commonly called UAS, on YouTube channels. Somad is a representative of the Indonesian Islamic preacher who is regarded to have become famous very quickly and well known as Ustadz Berjuta Follower. Some of his lectures recorded in video format and uploaded on YouTube channels have been success­ful in attracting the attention of the audiences. Indeed, dozens of videos have been watched by more than five million people per video. Using the Lasswell’s model of communi­cation process ‘who says what, to whom, which channel, and with what effect’ and textual analysis of Somad’s videos on YouTube, this study found that Somad managed to communi­cate his lectures to the target of da'wa dozens of times compared to conventional lectures from the pulpit to the pulpit. Thus, the communication of da'wa through YouTube in terms of the targeted audience was more effective. The multiplier effect of the audience was supported by the potential of YouTube to provide space for the interaction of the audiences, so as to create a multi-level flow of information. In addition, based on the observed visual and verbal aspects of Somad’s preaching on YouTube indicate that he is a moderate Indonesian ulama.

Abstract

This study investigates the dynamics of the haul ceremony of Sheikh Jumadil Kubro in Tralaya, Mojokerto, East Java which is contested between KH Ismail’s family and the cultural figures supported by the local government. Using a qualitative research approach this study found that the haul ritual of Sheikh Jumadil kubro in Tralaya was held in two different versions, that is, Ismail's family carried out their haul ceremony called jam’ul jawami’, meanwhile Wulung as a figure of Sentonorejo Village initiated the haul ceremony of Sheikh Jumadil Kubro in the form of kirab budaya. This different ceremonial practice of haul leads to theological conflict. The house of Ismail accused  Wulung and the administration of Sentonorejo Village of having made an innovation in religious practices (bid’ah) in the sense that kirab budaya was not taught by Sheikh Jumadil Kubro. Meanwhile,  Wulung was convinced that the idea of kirab budaya incorporated within the haul ceremony of Sheikh Jumadil Kubro intended to preserve the Majapahit culture that is suitable with Sheikh Jumadil Kubro's religious teachings. However, although the contest between two actors of the haul ceremony was inevitable, they were able to meet and share in terms of economic interest.

Abstract

Halal Industries have persistently become an important issue globally, including in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the strategies for halal industry development implemented by business actors in Indonesia as well as provide Indonesian Muslim’s responses and sharia compliance to halal context in their life. Using a mixed methodological approach with Analytical Network Process with religious leaders, academic and economics experts, local government, and business actors as the participants, it found that the strategies used to develop halal industry are not appropriate due to internal factors such as lack of standardization, branding, and limited human resources, and external ones which are the absence of a roadmap for halal industry and less supports from the government. Improving effective government policies and training human resources are among the strategies that might be applied. However, it also found greater attention among Indonesian Muslim and non-Muslim communities consuming halal products and enjoying halal experiences as their sharia compliance and lifestyle.

Abstract

This study explores the interaction of veiled students, the perceptions of students and lecturers towards them, and the influence of negative stereotypes that circulate on veiled students. The phenomenological approach used in this research is part of qualitative research. Participants are students from the State Islamic Institute of Curup and State Islamic Institute of Bengkulu. Data are analysed, using semantic reduction carried out by identifying important statements from the results of interviews, determining discussion themes, and describing the importance of the entire experience of veiled female students. The results show that the association of veiled students with students and lecturers at Islamic Higher Education of Bengkulu tends to go well and takes place normally. Students' perceptions of veiled students tend to be negative, considering veiling an excessive attitude in dressing. The effect of negative stereotypes on veiled students is that in general it does not affect the decision to veil among students.

Abstract

The millennial murshid comprises young tariqah leaders, who are well-versed in the latest information technology. Sufism identity has changed under the millennial murshid due to the development of information technology and their participation in social media which tries to revive the doctrine and ritual in the changing global reality. This condition has fostered Sufistic activism in a new direction from a “quiet road” to a “public road” in cyberspace. This article has explored the intersection between Sufism and social media based on the narration of the millennial murshid of Tariqa Naqshabandiyya-Khalidiya Serambi Babussalam. The findings illustrate that the phenomenon of virtual Sufism that has emerged from the intersection between Sufism and social media has given birth to a new expression of piety called as virtual piety. It is a simplification of piety from the original form of Sufistic tradition that emphasizes symbolic-esoteric aspects and is likely as opposed to individual piety. Additionally, the millennial murshid has successfully used social media, particularly Facebook, to reach out to the online community and gain followers.
