Abstract

Originally, mbrakah was a practice of food combining or food custom for spiritual purposes. The mbrakah tradition also can be categorized as 'food fashion.' In the global academic discourse, food culture and spirituality are important issues with strong traditional roots in Sufism and prophetic traditions, especially in Sufism. Particularly, mbrakah is even more unique because it is rooted in Sufism traditions and early Islamic norms and has been in dialogue with local wisdom, namely Indonesian Culture and, more specifically, Pesantren culture. One of the oldest Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia. In this article, We conceptualize that the mbrakah tradition does not merely stop as a food-combining tradition only carried out for personal interests. Based on the literature review, we argue that mbrakah can be transformed from theology to food ideology. Although the ideology referred to in the article is not an ideology in a complex sense, it can be a way of thinking and manifested into a movement and shared awareness about the importance of successful food diversification for food security during food problems in Indonesia. Mbrakah is a local culture and holds a religious dimension that many researchers consider, and it has the potential to be highly effective as a transformative movement.

Abstract

This article discusses the burial practices of Muslims in Göttingen, Germany. Differences between Islamic law and German state law, both procedurally and substantively, have created problems for German Muslims in carrying out burials. Based on interviews with two respondents who have experience in caring for the deceased, the article argues that the burial process involves elements of both the implementation and neglect of Islamic law. Islamic law is evident in the process of bathing, shrouding, and offering funeral prayers for the deceased. However, during the waiting period between a person's death and burial, as well as during the burial process itself, the respondents leave Islamic law behind and follow the laws of the state. This approach is influenced by two factors: if the times for implementing both laws do not overlap, then German Muslims can apply Islamic law. However, if the times for implementing both legal systems overlap, German Muslims choose to follow state law. Additionally, during the burial process, German Muslims cannot fully implement Islamic law due to limited burial facilities. The limited cemetery space for Muslims prevents them from burying the deceased facing Mecca.

Abstract

This article examines polarization within the Hadhrami Arab population in Bondowoso, East Java, especially in light of the rise of the 212 movement and the presidential election in 2019. During this time, the national political climate has become more tense. The issue of religion, which is drawn to political contestation, creates polarization among Muslims, including Arab Muslims. In Bondowoso, the polarization aligns with the different religious understanding backgrounds such as Sunni and Shi’a.  Nevertheless, polarization does not lead to social conflicts between them. Departing from this description, this study then focuses on two things. First, it seeks to reveal the views of Hadhrami Arabs on several national issues based on their respective religious backgrounds. Second, this study also reveals Arab intra-ethnic relations with different positions in addressing national issues. This research applied qualitative research with a case study approach to examine this focus. The study found that Arab perceptions of national issues varied according to their religious background. These perceptions correspond to their respective religious understanding. Second, although they differ in political and religious positions, the internal relations among Bondowoso Arabs are running normally without falling into violent conflict.

Abstract

Al-Jam’iyatul Washliyah (AW) and Aswaja theology are covered in this article. As a religious institution, AW acknowledges Aswaja’s ideology as the foundation for its mission. To maintain and develop Aswaja theology, AW utilizes educational institutions and recitation of the kitab kuning (yellow book) as a knowledge production for Aswaja theology. A question concerning the state of educational institutions today and the recitation of the Yellow Book at AW in Medan City was posed in order to comprehend the information presented. A case study about AW in Medan City is the qualitative research methodology that is employed. In addition, leaders, religious authorities, educators, and AW-related documents make up the primary  data source. According to his research, educational institutions that regularly support Aswaja books undergo internal changes and come to terms with the reality that teachers, or ustadh, are becoming less and less proficient in the classics. Additionally, a number of the study’s leaders—who were specialists in classic literature—passed away, which caused a setback to the kitab kuning study. Thus there was a downturn in the study of the kitab kuning. The results verify the weakening of the apparatus in AW that produces Aswaja theology.

Abstract

Radical ideology is a big problem for the Indonesian people in maintaining integrity and unity. The concept of religious moderation is a strength in maintaining the diversity and integrity of this nation. The science of Sufism is an alternative to developing moderate character with a humanist model of Sufism through Ibn Taymiyya's thoughts. This research aims to find Ibn Taymiyya's model of Sufism education to strengthen religious moderation in society. The research method used was a character biographical study, namely conducting a study of thoughts, life stories, and works produced. Data analysis used induction and interpretation techniques supported by relevant library sources so that the data presentation was more focused and valid. The study results concluded that Ibn Taymiyya's Sufism education model upholds the concepts of tawazun, tasamuh, ta'dil, tawasuth, which can encourage the formation of attitudes and moderate character. The moderate character positively impacts the maturation of social attitudes, which are beneficial for forming a complete, tolerant, and tolerant life. This attitude becomes a reinforcement in maintaining state sovereignty and togetherness between individuals. Ibn Taymiyya's model of Sufism education in practice and concept can form a moderate attitude so that religious understanding can be understood wisely, far from blind fanaticism and exclusive attitudes that can form gaps between individuals. The limitations of this research only extend to the analysis of Ibn Taymiyya's Sufism education model, which is relevant to the concept of religious moderation. The development direction for further research can be focused on Ibn Taymiyah's multicultural-based model of Sufism education in response to the era of artificial intelligence (AI).

Abstract

This article discusses the challenges of European Islam at the intersection of Islamic traditions and modern liberal democratic values and the urgency of bridging the two. European Islam is looking for a common ground that can combine reason and faith in harmony, integrate the values of modernity with the spiritual view of Islam, and identify the challenges and opportunities faced by European Islam in the context of Western liberal society. Bidar, in his contribution to the concept of European Islam, argues that religion is not only about rituals but also about profound spiritual experiences. He proposed the concept of Self Islam, which emphasizes individual freedom, personal responsibility, and spiritual connection with Allah. According to Bidar, individual freedom is the key to spiritual life. In addition, everyone can choose how to practice religion according to his spiritual needs. Bidar proposed Islamic reform, oriented towards the unification of religions and modernity, by prioritizing humanist values and human rights and reforming Islam in the light of modernity. According to him, humans become God's autonomous vicegerent on earth and have the right to manage it freely but responsibly. In addition, in harmony with Kantian, Bidar believes that human immortality can be achieved through piety and good deeds.

Abstract

Human rights are an aspect of social existence. Human rights also include the right to religious freedom in retaining faith and belief in human beings. By comprehending the right to religious freedom, we may identify the rights of belief in all individuals.

(3) What is the policy on religious freedom toward the Ahmadiyya minority group in West Kalimantan? This study employed qualitative methods to describe the chronology of Ahmadiyya events in West Kalimantan through interviews and documentation. The findings of the study indicate that religious freedom discrimination against Ahmadiyya in West Kalimantan demonstrates: 1) the existence of violations of the right to freedom of religion; 2) the existence of contradictory policies; and 3) the existence of religiously motivated violence in West Kalimantan. This study’s findings demonstrate that the violation of religious freedom against the Ahmadiyya in West Kalimantan is a type of religious-based discrimination.
