Abstract

Salafism, which has thrived and exerted its influence among Indonesian Muslims since the second half of the 1980s, is not a monolithic movement. As a reconstituted form of Wahhabism, this movement has fragmented into various camps engaged in debates and competition to establish themselves as true Salafis. Embracing a position of apolitical quietism, the so-called quietists vehemently oppose the jihadists, who advocate the necessity of waging jihad against Islam’s enemies. In their perspective, Muslims should concentrate on their primary task of purifying Muslim beliefs and practices to avoid entanglement in political games. In this context, jihad is prohibited if it leads to physical violence among Muslims themselves. This paper aims to scrutinize the political contexts behind the polemics and explore how the contending parties interpret the main doctrines of Salafism, using them to justify their respective political stances. By utilizing primary sources, documentary data, and interviews with the movement’s followers, this paper argues that, despite doctrinal and ideological nuances, actors’ political interests may play a more decisive role in shaping the polemics, thus blurring their ideological boundaries.

Abstract

This article, embracing Laruelle’s observation that Kazakhstan “presents itself as a bridge linking the Western, Muslim, and Asian worlds” critically explores the intricate dynamics of cultural reframing and identity reconstruction amid post-Soviet nationalist mobilization. Kazakhstan’s steadfast commitment to projecting a ‘bridge image’ for strategic geopolitical advantages is evident through state-mechanized ‘nation branding’ strategies within a ‘soft-authoritarian’ secular political environment conducive to nationalist mobilization. The article methodologically investigates the role of Islam, often obscured in this context, through an analysis of “elite responses” reflecting the state’s stance on religion. The theoretical examination substantiated by thematic analysis of ethnographic data unveils that Islam, strategically instrumentalized for political objectives, exerts a profound influence on the “collective consciousness” of the local populace, predominantly composed of ethnic Kazakhs. This influence significantly contributes to the nuanced [re]construction of tradition, identity, and culture in post-Soviet Kazakhstan, thereby shedding light on the interconnectedness of state-driven narratives, political strategies, and the pivotal role played by Islam in shaping the cultural and identity landscape of the region.

Abstract

This study elucidates the factors that have driven the emergence of Salafism in rural Java, including the individual actors, the global Salafi movement, and the connections established amongst Islamic organizations since the fall of the New Order. This study emphasizes that the Salafi movement has not been purely religious in rural Java, but rather served to provide members with economic and political salvation. Diverse economic and political contestations have occurred within the Salafi movement as actors within the movement have established connections with individuals who share their vision and political ideology. This article concludes that the Salafi movement may be considered a form of political Islam, wherein individuals contest public spaces through public piety, economic activities, and political approaches. Data for this study were collected through field research, interviews with informants, and a review of the literature. A political sociology approach was used to analyze the connections between village actors, the spread of Salafism, and the political and economic issues faced by religious organizations.

Abstract

This study delves into the Gorontalo tradition of Molobunga Yiliyala, which pertains to the burial of the placenta, from both cultural and Islamic law perspectives. The cultural viewpoint is garnered through interviews with a customary leader, while the Islamic legal perspective is acquired through consultations with a religious figure. In addition to interviews, observations, and document analyses were employed as methodological tools. The research elucidates a symbiotic relationship between culture and religion, epitomized by the principal figures overseeing the Molobunga Yiliyala ritual: the Hulango (customary leader) and the Imamu or Hatibi (religious figure). Culturally, the Molobunga Yiliyala tradition is replete with profound symbolic meanings. This tradition is predicated on humanitarian considerations, as the Yiliyala (placenta) is recognized as a part of the human body deserving reverence. Consequently, it is ceremonially cleansed, shrouded, buried, and accompanied by post-burial prayers. Based on the perspective of maqâshid al-syari‘ah, the Molobunga Yiliyala ritual embodies an actionable manifestation of environmental cleanliness. The Molobunga Yiliyala is deemed sunnah or encouraged in alignment with Islamic jurisprudential principles. As a result, the tradition of Molobunga Yiliyala is categorized as a part of the ‘urf or customary practices within the epistemological paradigm of Islamic law. Each phase of the Molobunga Yiliyala ritual highlights the intricate acculturation of Islam with the indigenous Gorontalo culture.

Abstract

This article examines the cultural ethos of Muslim Madurese, Indonesian women who work as sex workers in interacting with state actors who abuse their power and with vigilante practices from non-state actors. Empirical data in this study were collected through interactive dialogue to place the key informants (sex workers) in an equal position with the researcher. The efforts built by Muslim female sex workers can be interpreted as a form of courage in fighting against violence and human rights violations. The strategies used are: a) migrants only want to provide sex services where they feel safe from violence. Some of these location choices navigate sex workers and clients to eliminate or minimize the dire risks of their activities for the sake of a comfort zone for safety. Sex workers deposit dues at a particular place to give them to the officer’s element. They feel safe from raid operations and perceive that their rights are a form of settlement from threats of arrest. They hope that Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Muhammadiyah can provide moral, economic, and educational support to get rid of this prostitution, and hope that there will be help from NU that can protect them from violence as Banser protects churches. They have specific signal codes during a raid, such as always holding a cell phone to get information from clients and trying to memorize the faces of the officers who usually carry out the operation. This finding ultimately emphasizes the importance of protecting Muslim women sex workers through state authorities, legal officers, and civil society groups to support policy, legal, and practice reforms in Madura, Indonesia, so that they can avoid violence.

Abstract

The purpose of this article was to explore student involvement in teaching and learning, focusing on the experiences of third-year students in the Indonesian Islamic Education Study Program teacher program. Student involvement was defined as having three aspects: students exhibit active classroom participation, students influence the curriculum design, and students feel they are part of the community. The findings were reported based on interview studies and process analysis, the involvement of learning methods, and the motivation for student involvement. The findings revealed that students had multiple understandings of student involvement and that the level of involvement depended on student and lecturer involvement, expectations, and responsibilities. Student lecturers also linked student involvement to the use of teaching methods, learning, and their future professions as teachers of Islamic religious education. Students mainly discussed intrinsic motivation (beneficial for learning) for student involvement, but traces of altruistic motivation (civics learning) were also observed. Extrinsic motivation (university benefits), however, was absent. Voices of resistance to student involvement were also present; these students preferred lecturer-led education and were unaccustomed to high levels of involvement. Student understanding of engagement challenges the lecturer–student role in the education of teachers in Islamic religious education specifically, and in Islamic higher education in general. Acknowledging students’ diverse understanding of student involvement is important. Overall, based on student experience, involvement creates participation and the motivation to study here and now and for future professions. Studies show that student involvement has inherent value beyond the benefits of measurable outcomes, in which the use of teaching, engagement, and learning methods for future professions is promoted.
