Abstract

This paper is a reflection on the policy of Moderasi Beragama (religious moderation) launched by the Indonesian Ministry of Religious Affairs in 2019, which has been incorporated into the 2020-2024 Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN, Rencana Pembangunan Jangka Menengah). Moderasi Beragama is a strategic policy implemented by the Ministry of Religious Affairs for half a decade and has resulted in several accomplishments up to this point. This study sheds light on the Ministry of Religious Affairs’ efforts to disseminate religious moderation through the ministerial policy by reviewing the implementation journey since its official enactment. The study results reveal that the policy of Moderasi Beragama has been effectively working over the past five years, particularly within the Ministry of Religious Affairs itself, and has the potential for further development in the future. Although it still has a long way to go to become a “national habitus,” this policy has managed to attain certain achievements in accordance with its road map throughout the past five years.

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

This study specifically focuses on the minority stigma faced by niqab wearers, particularly among university students in Lampung, Indonesia. On the one hand, this group of niqab-wearing students tries to apply Islamic teachings (read: hadith) in their everyday lives. However, this group finds itself as a minority and frequently faces a negative stereotype. Therefore, this study aims to reveal how both niqab and non-niqab-wearing students understand the hadiths pertaining to the niqab, how the majority group, consisting of students and lecturers, perceive the minority of niqab-wearing students, and how the attitudes of the minority of niqab-wearing students toward the stigmatization they encounter. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method and phenomenological approach. The results revealed that students’ understanding varied from understanding, to lack of understandin, and not understanding the hadith teachings about the niqab. Furthermore, the Islamic State University in Lampung adheres to the principle of providing equal service by the law. Similarly, in everyday situations, niqab-wearing students were not subject to any discrimination based on their minority status. Although several lecturers and students perceived niqabi as a different occurrence, they do not discriminate against students who choose to wear niqab. Consequently, niqab-wearing students remained at ease while confidently adhering to the teachings of the sunnah on the niqab.

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.

Abstract

In patriarchal cultures and societies, the practice of women’s domestication is commonly embraced. As an educational institution, pesantren are inherently led by the kyai due to their exclusive leadership. Many scholarly studies often neglect the roles of their wives as counterparts or nyai in the pesantren. Even in a broader society, the contributions of nyai in the transformation of pesantren are frequently eclipsed by the roles of their husbands or male counterparts. Therefore, this study aims to comprehend the roles of nyai and how they deal with cultural barriers that are essential for their public participation inside and outside the pesantren. Through an anthropological approach, this study presents the life narratives of two nyais in contemporary Indonesia and demonstrates the significant roles of nyai in the pesantren. It also aims to portray the life experiences of nyais in dealing with cultural barriers and promoting gender awareness to their students (santri). It also explores the interpretation of the gender equality concept within Islamic terms amid the prevailing patriarchal cultures and societies. In addition, it also examines the reception and practices of santri regarding gender awareness and equality. Thus, this study further argues that nyai plays an essential role in promoting gender equality in the pesantren. Nyai’s life experiences and leadership serve as an important modality for the pesantren to transform the society towards just and justice.
