Abstract

The integration of science and the Qur’an, known as scientific exegesis (tafsīr ‘ilmī), has emerged as a crucial interpretative model in response to the division between secular and religious knowledge. This study delves into Qur’anic verses related to oceanography, exploring their theological significance and uncovering numerous benefits of the oceans, including their roles as sources of life, climate regulators, livelihood providers, and transportation channels. Additionally, it identifies a remarkable 38 verses discussing oceanography, with 18 of them emphasizing key theological messages such as the exclusive divinity of God, His role as the Creator and Controller of all, the submission of nature to Him, the vastness of His knowledge, and His undeniable greatness. Ultimately, the Qur’anic concept of oceanography reaffirms the existence of God as the Creator and emphasizes humanity’s responsibility as His creatures and servants, tasked with worshiping and glorifying Him. This fusion of science and the Qur’an offers valuable alternative interpretations that can enhance human understanding.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the institutionalization of Islam in Java, which is the work of coastal Islamic communities, particularly the envoys or Sufis who collaborated with local coastal traditions. As a result of document studies, it can be seen that the institutionalization of Islam in Java was a long process carried out by envoys spreading Islam. Among the efforts made were through da’wah or the spread of Islam individually by agents of the spread of Islam, and then jointly establishing the kingdom and becoming more structured with the establishment of Islamic educational institutions or pesantren. The Islam produced in this long process is Islam in its acculturative or collaborative style, namely the practice of Islamic teachings in harmony with local traditions. Even though there have been changes for the sake of change, the principal teachings in Islam have not changed except for teachings that are instrumental in nature. One of the greatest attributes in the process of coastal Islamization is the creation of understanding and practice of religion in a moderate style.

Abstract

This article examines the shift of Rached Ghannouchi and Ennahda party from Islamism to democracy. This article analyzes Ghannouchi’s early Islamist ideology and confrontational approach to politics, as well as his exposure to democratic systems, which led to a reevaluation of his views on democracy, following the failure of Ennahda’s early attempts at revolutionary Islamism in the 1980s and 1990s, which prompted Ghannouchi to reconsider his approach to politics and Islamism. This led to a shift towards a more moderate and inclusive approach to politics, culminating in Ennahda’s participation in Tunisia’s democratic transition after the 2011 revolution. This article highlights the theoretical implications of his shift from Islamism to democracy for the study of political Islam and democratization. This article argues that Islamist actors and movements can evolve and adapt to changing political circumstances, as well as undergo gradual moderation in promoting democratic reform.

Abstract

This article explores the views of Muslim elites regarding religious and socio-political issues as a means of explaining moderate Islam in Indonesia. Specifically, its aim is to shed light on this matter by mapping the ideological spectrum of Muslim elites’ perspectives on significant religious and political issues. A solid understanding of the socio-political context and the viewpoints of the elite is a crucial step towards comprehending the development of religious and political attitudes among the general population and the resulting impact on the social and political progress of the country. Based on fieldwork, this article argues that the majority of Muslim elites lean towards a moderate stance when it comes to perceiving ideological matters. Nevertheless, some still exhibit a tendency towards conservatism. It is important to note that this study is limited in its geographical scope. Consequently, further research should encompass various regions of Indonesia to provide a more comprehensive and holistic perspective.

Show Abstract | Download Original | Original Source | Check in Google Scholar | DOI: 10.15642/islamica.2023.18.1.28-49

Abstract

This study delves into Siti Walidah’s journey as a gender equality pioneer within the ‘Aisyiyah movement, utilizing four research methods: heuristic research for source collection, source criticism for source validation, interpretation employing sociological and anthropological approaches, and historiography for systematic reporting. Findings reveal that Walidah’s family and marriage to Ahmad Dahlan strongly influenced her commitment to gender equality. Dahlan played a significant role in forming views and experiences that gave birth to ideas and tangible actions in the gender equality movement. Walidah pioneered the gender equality movement by establishing places of education: launching the Sapa Tresna association (1914), ‘Aisyiyah (1917), Internaat (1919), Musholla ‘Aisyiyah (1922) which became tools for building gender equality by providing opportunities and programmes for women to obtain equal educational rights as men. She played a pioneering role in empowering women within ‘Aisyiyah, leading its congresses, and departed from religious values to advocate for gender equality through the ‘Aisyiyah organization formed in 1917, solidifying her legacy as Indonesia’s first gender equality advocate.

Abstract

This ethnographic study explores the phenomenon of religious authority held by a murshid (Sufi Master), Kiai Haji Abdul Mannan, in Madura, Indonesia, despite his unconventional background. Applying Max Weber’s theory of charismatic authority, the research delves into the factors enabling the rapid attraction of jamā‘a (followers) and the establishment of his religious influence. This study emphasizes the pivotal role of the murshid’s charisma in building his religious authority and highlights how the newly founded majelis dhikr (religious chanting group), known as Majelis Dzikir Nurut Tauhid, consolidates the jamā‘a and fortifies the murshid’s religious authority. This study provides profound insights into how religious authority can thrive and endure within the Madura context, even when the religious leader possesses an unconventional background. The main argument of this study is that the religious authority of the murshid is constructed upon charisma, charismatic claims, and a cohesive community of followers. It offers a compelling example of the intricacies of religious authority dynamics in society.

Abstract

This study explores local politics in Madura, Indonesia, dur­ing the early years of regional autonomy following the fall of the New Order, a period marked by the rise of civilian elites in positions previ­ously dominated by the military. It focuses on two influential local actors—kiai (Islamic religious leaders) and blater (local strongmen)—and examines their role in shaping regional elections (Pilkada) in Bangkalan. The research aims to understand community perceptions of these elites’ involvement and its implications for democratization. Adopting a qualitative, descriptive approach, data were collected through interviews and documentation, involving kiai, blater, commu­nity leaders, party figures, academics, cultural figures, and residents from both urban and rural areas. The study draws on the theoretical frameworks of interest groups and democratization. Findings indicate that Kiai engage in politics by running for office, endorsing candidates, campaigning, and issuing religious guidance to mobilize followers, while blater employ intimidation and coercion to influence voting be­havior. Although both elites are central to local elections, their partic­ipation does not advance substantive democracy; instead, it constrains political choice and undermines citizens’ autonomy. The study argues that the entanglement of religious authority and local power structures in Bangkalan illustrates a complex pattern of elite influence, highlight­ing the challenges of achieving genuine democratization in post-re­form Indonesian regions.

Abstract

This article examines the process of Islamization and its impact on the socio-economic transformation of the community in Onderafdeeling Manna, Bencoolen or Bengkulu Residency, during the Dutch colonial period, spanning from 1824 to 1942. The primary objective of this study is to identify the early figures who disseminated Islam in the region and analyse how Islamic teachings influenced the lifestyle of the local community. Using historical methods through the stages of heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography, this study finds that Islam entered the Manna region around the 1880s through the preaching of Shaykh Muhammad Amin from Nias Island. Islamic activities developed through the establishment of large mosques, such as Al-Manar, the formation of Islamic organisations like Muhammadiyah and Nahdlatul Ulama, and the growth of Sufi orders in the post-independence period. This process also encouraged changes in the community’s economic behaviour, primarily through shifts in trade ethics, increased cooperation in agriculture, and the development of waqf and zakāh-based initiatives. These findings demonstrate that Islam serves not only as a religion but also as a social and cultural force capable of transforming society’s structure in a peaceful and sustainable manner.

Abstract

The 1997 National Conference of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) Scholars in Lombok issued a groundbreaking fatwā permitting women to hold the position of vice president—a progressive step in advanc­ing gender justice within Islamic discourse. However, at the grassroots level, gender segregation remains deeply entrenched, particularly in Sumenep Regency. This study explores how NU feminists in Su­menep negotiate their struggle for gender equality and how local kiai and religious scholars respond to these efforts. Employing a qualita­tive approach with data collected through literature review, observa­tion, interviews, and documentation, this research is framed by Is­lamic feminist theory. The findings reveal that gender discourse in NU Sumenep remains weak when confronted with the religious authority of kiai and traditional scholars. Their ambivalent and skeptical re­sponses toward gender equality activism indicate that the discourse promoted by the NU Central Board (PBNU) has not been effectively internalized at the local level. Furthermore, the absence of pesantren-based initiatives on gender awareness perpetuates gender segregation, resulting in unequal competencies and opportunities between male and female students. This study highlights the gap between NU’s pro­gressive theological discourse and its limited cultural translation among rural communities.

Abstract

his study explores how Minangkabau literary and cultural elements shaped Haji Abdul Malik Karim Amrullah’s Tafsīr al-Azhar, particularly in the interpretation of al-Baqarah. Employing qualitative content analysis combined with Norman Fairclough’s critical dis­course framework, the research examines the interplay between text production, reception, and socio-cultural context in Hamka’s exeget­ical method. The findings reveal that literary device—such as pantun, proverbs, metaphors, and maxims—serve as key interpretive tools, enriching the text’s aesthetic and cultural resonance. Equally signifi­cant are the Minangkabau influences, including local language, social traditions, and political references, which root Qur’anic interpretation in lived experience. This synthesis demonstrates Hamka’s capacity to integrate Islamic revelation with the cultural-linguistic heritage of the Malay-Indonesian world. The study argues that Tafsīr al-Azhar trans­cends local boundaries, positioning itself within the global discourse of modern Qur’anic exegesis. Hamka’s approach bridges classical in­terpretive traditions and contemporary cultural realities, highlighting the importance of contextual hermeneutics in making the Qur’an ac­cessible across diverse communities. Ultimately, the study offers a model for culturally grounded tafsīr and provides a foundation for comparative analysis with other modern commentators.
