Abstract

This research examines the relationship between Islam as a world religion and Patuntung as a traditional religion adhered to by the Ammatoa indigenous community in Kajang, South Sulawesi. The relationship between these two religions is not only oppositional or harmonious but also dynamic and negotiating. This research uses a qualitative method with a 'New Ethnography' approach, which pays attention to three aspects: self-reflection, polyvocality, and testimony. The findings of this research show that the meeting between Islam and Patuntung produces a hybrid reality, namely Sallang, which is basically a different Islam and another Patuntung. Sallang is a new reality that emerged from the meeting between Islam and Patuntung. This is clearly seen from Ammatoa's belief that the Koran is 40 juz, 10 juz revealed in Kajang, and 30 juz revealed in Mecca. This research provides a new contribution to the study of the relationship between world religions and indigenous religions, especially in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research examines the community's offering rituals to honor gods, ancestral spirits, and guardian spirits of sacred places. This ritual caused controversy among Muslims because it contained elements of shirk. This research aims to seek a synthesis of this controversy. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method approach with an ethnographic type. Data collection was carried out through observation and interviews. Data analysis uses interactive methods. The research results show that offering rituals can be synthesized from a religious and cultural perspective with the following conditions: 1) offering rituals are positioned as cultural events, not as offerings as in religion; 2) the meaning of the offering ritual is thanksgiving which is consumed by the community, not left to be eaten by spirits or ancestral spirits because it would be wasteful; 3) the intention of the offering ritual is only for Allah alone and is not mixed or added with other names. As in religion, the intention of sacrifice is for Allah alone, but the object (sacrificial animal) is for humans.

Abstract

This paper discusses Victor Turner's theory of liminality, religion, and nationality obtained from primary sources using the literature review method. The results of his study serve as a theoretical basis for discussing Victor Turner's liminality and its relationship to religion and nationality. This theory will help the writer dissect the customary ritual of washing the land in Soya. Liminality is an important aspect of the rite and is adopted from Arnold Van Gennep's concept. The term ‘liminality’ comes from the Latin word 'limen', which means 'doorway'. Viktor Turner used this term in his research on symbols and rituals among the Ndembu people of Africa. Therefore, liminality has such rich characteristics that it provides its own perspective on the life of society and culture today. In addition to Liminality, the writer also examines the theory of religion and nationality initiated by Emile Durkheim and Ernest Gellner. The results of the study show that these three theories have a very close and substantial relationship, in which of these three theories is social equality with one another. This intersection exists as a result of Turner's theory of liminality.

Abstract

The research examines the transcending paradigm as a crucial intellectual approach, with scholars like Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas, and Ismail Raji al-Faruqi proposing a synthesis of Islamic spiritual principles with modern scientific inquiry. This paradigm aims to bridge the gap between science and spirituality, advocating for a unified model that respects Islamic metaphysical traditions while embracing empirical scientific advancements. Through a systematic comparative and analytical approach, the research thoroughly examines and critiques the philosophical foundations and theoretical frameworks presented by Nasr, al-Attas, and al-Faruqi. This study's synthesis of these scholars' perspectives makes it unique, providing insights into their efforts to move beyond traditional academic paradigms. Their contributions argue for a coherent framework harmonizing divine unity and cosmic understanding. They assert that true knowledge encompasses both the material and the transcendent, offering a holistic and spiritually enriched scientific perspective. This article contributes to enhancing the Islamic intellectual tradition by presenting a model deeply rooted in cultural values and responsive to the complexities of the modern scientific era.

Abstract

The 1965 tragedy that befell the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) and Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) left deep wounds on Indonesian society. Reconciliation efforts between these two groups still face various challenges, both from the government and from the people. This research aims to examine the Syarikat Indonesia people's movement, which is one of the reconciliation initiatives between the PKI and NU. This research also wants to know the function of the Company as a social movement that seeks to change society. This research uses qualitative methods that integrate text analysis and interviews with Syarikat members and sympathizers. The data collected was then analyzed using a social movement theoretical framework. This research provides a new contribution by revealing the dynamics and obstacles faced by the Company in carrying out reconciliation. This research also shows how the Syarikat provides an alternative narrative about the events of 1965 that differs from the official state narrative. In addition, this research highlights the role and impact of Syarikat in promoting democratization and social justice in Indonesia.

Abstract

The daily life of the Muslim community today is faced with various humanitarian problems, including economic problems and oppression. These problems must be solved immediately by reinterpreting the sources of Islamic theology with humanitarian goals. In order for theology to be present in solving various problems experienced by modern humans, it is necessary to reinterpret the values contained in Islamic teachings, from being solely theocentric to theo-anthropocentric. This research will elaborate on the liberation of the tertin das in the manuscript of Kitab Maksiat found in Madura. This type of research is a literature research. This research uses a qualitative approach. The main source of this research is Kitab Maksiat, which is a 24-page Arabic manuscript written in prose style. The results of this study can be concluded that the concept of liberation in the manuscript of Kitab Maksiat can be described into two categories, namely liberation from exploitative economic structures, and liberation of the oppressed (mustad'afin). The attitude of liberation from degrading fellow human beings in the manuscript is manifested in not prioritising the rich over the poor, siding and respecting the mustad'afin, that wealth is not a measure to determine who should be prioritised.

Abstract

Religious radicalism in the university has recently reached a serious level. Not a few academics are involved in this understanding and show extreme attitudes both at the level of action and narrative. Since 2019, the Ministry of Religious Affairs has been committed to strengthening religious moderation. These efforts can be seen concretely in the preparation of Religious Moderation books, counseling activities, the formation of educational curriculum, and the establishment of the House of Religious Moderation in universities. PTKIN as the long arm of the Ministry of Religious Affairs has a strategic role in mainstreaming religious moderation in Indonesia. This qualitative study took two PTKIN in Central Java, UIN Walisongo Semarang and UIN Raden Mas Said Surakarta. Using a descriptive narrative approach, this study aims to determine the basis of the argumentation for mainstreaming religious moderation, identify activities initiated by PTKIN, and the practice of state hegemony through the Ministry of Religious Affairs in this effort. The results of this study indicate that UIN Walisongo Semarang and UIN Raden Mas Said Surakarta have theological and cultural argumentation bases in mainstreaming religious moderation. Both campuses have initiated activities both academic and non-academic in the implementation of religious moderation. In addition, the state through the Ministry of Religious Affairs seems to be aggressive in preventing radicalism and extremism by giving a mandate to PTKIN in mainstreaming religious moderation which seems to indicate that Islam is separate from the value of moderation.
