Pesantren memiliki ciri khas kepemimpinan otoritarianisme. Sistem kepemimpinan ini menjadi model dalam organisasi pesantren, khususnya pesantren tradisional. Kiai sebagai pemimpin memiliki peran dan pengaruh yang sangat kuat terhadap aktivitas pesantren. Sedangkan santri, sebagai kaum pelajar diharuskan memiliki format ketaatan dan kepatuhan yang tinggi kepada kiai. Doktrin yang dipahami dan dianut oleh santri di pesantren adalah Sami’na wa at}a’na (kami mendengar dan kami mematuhinya). Doktrin ini sekaligus menjadi ciri khas penanaman moral atau Akhlâk al-karîmah kepada para santri yang belajar di pesantren tersebut. Trikotomi muslim Jawa yang dibuat oleh Clifford Geertz (Santri, Priyayi, dan Abangan) sangat membantu tulisan ini untuk memahami hubungan kiai dan santri. Begitu pula, kajian Martin van Bruinessen tentang pesantren dan kitab kuning, cukup membentuk dalam mengidentifikasi tradisi dan sumber doktrin yang dianut oleh masyarakat pesantren. Berdasarkan kedua sumber tersebut dan beberapa sumber pendukung, tulisan ini menguatkan tesis bahwa kepemimpinan otoriter yang dijalankan di pesantren merupakan dampak dari hubungan kiai dan santri yang bersifat patron-klien. Hubungan ini sangat berguna untuk menjaga kewibawaan kiai dan menanamkan pendidikan moral yang baik kepada santri.

Pada era globalisasi, dunia dihadapkan dengan tantangan permasalahan baru yaitu arus teknologi, ideologi dan budaya yang semakin maju. Tak ayal, hal tersebut menciptakan benturan di kalangan masyarakat yang resistan terhadap arus perkembangan-perkembangan yang ada. Dari sini, masyarakat secara tidak langsung berperan sekaligus menjadi aktor budaya dan teknologi yang sedang mengglobal. Benturan-benturan tersebut telah diciptakan ketika fundamentalis berhadapan dengan konservatif yang tidak mampu menghindar dan terlibat dalam perkembangan dunia global. Pada puncaknya, perang kosmik pun dimulai dengan mengatasnamakan kebenaran dari satu sisi dan prasangka sebagai kejahatan di sisi lainnya. Agama seringkai dimengerti sebagai pemeran utama dalam benturan tersebut, semisal antara Yahudi dan Islam di Palestina, Hindu dan sih di Punjab, Katolik dan Protestan di Irlandia. Pemahaman tentang agama-agama bermanfaat untuk menghindari benturan tersebut dengan dialog dan pengaplikasian etika sebagai metode menciptakan perdamaian. Oleh karena itu, peran agama menjadi krusial selain sebagai petunjuk hidup namun juga sebagai cara kunci perdamaian bagi golongan yang berbeda. Untuk itu, Thich Nhat Hanh, sebagai master Zen dan Biksu Budha menawarkan ajaran kedamaian melalui pendekatan “engaged budhism” dan susunan “interbeing” yang berorientasi pada metode penciptaan kedamaian dunia tidak hanya bagi orang Buddha tetapi juga semua orang dalam menghadapi perbedaan dan perdamaian.

The Maulid Mawlid Festival of the Prophet Muhammad is one of the Islamic popular events mostly held in pesantren. It launches almost in every territory of Islamic world, after popularized by abu Abû said Sa‘îd al-kakburi Kakburî (1250-1260). Historically, it was a heritage initially acknowledged by the Dinasty of Fât}}imîyah (909-1171 M). At the beginning, the Dinasty dynasty used the Maulid Mawlîd Festival to gain a fancy of Moslems to support their authority of Islamic leadership. It used to strengthen their political ways to gain many public opinions in relation with their genealogical relationship with the prophet. The affirmation of genealogical relationship was needed as a tool of propaganda politically so that their right to inherit prophet authority has strong legitimation. In addition, the mauled festival does not only function to liven up Moslem community affection toward the prophet but also symbolically function as a psychological antidote to muffle the pain after having war. At the end, Moslem intellectuals started to scrutinize the festival and discuss its essence. However, such festival creates a big debate around Moslem scholars who have pro and contra in seeing it for instance al-Suyût}}î who sees the festival in contradictive way. This paper aims to explore the debates and discourses concerning the Maulid Mawlîd Festival. The discussion over Islamic religious tradition constitutes a strategy to test the level of good argument proposed by each groups of Islamic organization.

Hubungan antara Negara dan agama di Indonesia khususnya Islam tidak selalu dalam keadaan rukun sejak kemerdekaan Indonesia. Hubungan tersebut bahkan lebih cenderung ke antagonisme, berpisah dari satu kesatuan namun saling membutuhkan. Di satu sisi, Islam adalah fondasi nasional oleh karena kesuciannya dan dipeluk kebanyakan orang Indonesia. Di sisi lain, Pancasila yang harus menjadi fondasi Negara dengan melihat kemajemukan dari bangunan sosial masyarakat Indonesia. Penelitian ini mendiskusikan tentang makna agama dalam masyarakat demokratis, khususnya di Indonesia. Ketika sekularisme meminta pemisahan agama dan negara, pada satu sisi, dan teokrasi (negara Islam) menuntut adanya penyatuan agama dan negara, pada sisi lain, Indonesia menawarkan Pancasila untuk menjembatani jurang antara keduanya. Dalam negara sekuler, peran agama dalam negara sejauh mungkin bisa diminimalkan, bahkan dienyahkan. Padahal, agama yang secara esensial mengandung prinsip-prinsip nilai dan moral memiliki posisi sentral bagi manusia. Sebaliknya, dalam negara teokrasi agama sangat mungkin untuk dialih fungsikan sebagai penindas rakyat. Dalam situasi dilematik ini, Pancasila tidak mempunyai pretensi mengenyahkan peran agama, dan juga tidak menjadikan agama sebagai alat justifikasi suatu rezim, melainkan memfasilitasi berjalannya peran agama dalam negara. Dengan begini, agama memiliki peran esensial dalam masyarakat demokratis.

Religion does not occur in human life as a single reality, which cannot be separated from historical and cultural realm. It consists achievement of rational and spiritual domain, supporting historical needs of mankind life. Religion presents itself as an inseparable part of human history at various level of civilizations. When debate of truth claims and salvation becomes a major theme, the theology of convergence is needed to create inter-religious harmony. The main purpose of theological convergence is to unite essential elements of religion. Religion and its adherents can be unified in one concept of universal theology. If convergence theology can be fully understood, it surely will build inter-religious harmony. Besides bring opportunities to create inter-religious harmony, theological convergence also faced a number of challenges that will be an obstacle to the realization of the ideals of society for religious harmony. Therefore, before apply the convergence of theological discourse to the society, we need to identify the challenges that will be faced in order to minimize the negative possibilities that may hamper the main objective theological convergence. Therefore, this paper will also be focused on the discussion about the challenges of theological convergence

Artikel ini mencoba untuk merefleksikan pemahaman saya mengenai tantangan yang dihadapi oleh Naqsabandî di Turki dan Indonesia. Untuk menganalisis hal tersebut, penulis memulai pembahasan dengan menjelaskan konsep sekularisasi dan bagaimana konsep itu direspons oleh masing-masing citizen. Di Indonesia, konsep sekularisasi berjalan secara pasif, sedangkan di Turki sekularisasi berjalan secara asertif. Dari sini, penulis menganalisis perbedaan tantangan tarekat Naqsabandî di masing-masing negara, bahwa di Indonesia tantangan itu berasal dari kelompok reformis yang banyak melakukan kritik terhadap tarekat atas perilaku sosialnya yang dianggap menyimpang (bid‘ah dan shirk). Sedangkan di Turki, tantangan tarekat Naqsabandî justru berasal dari institusi negara. Sekularisme tampak dimanfaatkan oleh penguasa untuk meredam gerakan tarekat Naqsabandî yang dipandang sebagai ancaman terhadap kekuasaan. Selain itu, sekularisme juga menjadikan negara ‘polisi’ peradaban setempat dengan menjustifikasi tarekat Naqsabandî hanya akan membawa masyarakat menjadi semakin terbelakang dan tidak mampu menghadapi tantangan modernitas. Artikel ini akan melihat perbedaan masing-masing tantangan ini dan bagaimana kelompok Naqsabandî bisa bertahan.

Contemporary discourse of religious studies indicates many fields of study in understanding religion. Religious spectrum not only relates with credo, faith, worldview, theology and etcetera but expanding in various aspect (cultural and historical side). The cultural and historical aspects in a certain point give some problems in academic field. Kim Knott based on those matters tries to give a new shot in analyzing religion based on the issued aspects. Looking at how complicated is it Kim Knott maps it into two religious approaches. First is the hardship situation to make such a clear gap between religious and not-religious territory and second is the complicated problem in relation with religion as tradition and religion as faith. This article elucidates a viewpoint of Kim Knott as a “new outline” on religious studies. Knott attempts to eliminate the subjective intentions by using two basic perspectives of methodology: insider and outsider. He has classified the concept of inter-connection between social and religious role into four elements: pure participant, researcher as participant, participant as researcher and pure researcher. However, this concept remains an important problem concerning to standard of objectivity. Knott’s approach tries to place researcher on the margin of appreciation as a border line between insider-outsider.

The conflict between Sunni and Shia groups in Sampang did not take place at once but rather through certain periods of time when each conflict had triggered another conflict. In each period, either the government and religious elite has a pivotal role to evaluate, charge or discharge, civic engagement and elite integration in the conflict process. This article is aimed to analyze the violence against Shia group in three periods of time: pre-conflict, midi-conflict, and post-conflict. The first period started after Kiai Makmun had passed away. The second was when the violence occurred in December 29th 2011 and August 26th 2012. And the third occurred after the violence had taken place. Although the conflict has run for several years, it has not shown the end. In order to explain this problem, this article bases on two hypotheses: first, the conflict has been caused by the absence of civic engagement. And second, which was caused the conflict continuation, has been caused by elite integration, which has never occurred on the society. This article concludes two things: first, civic engagement that can find only intra-communal engagement (intra-community engagement). And second, elite integration cannot be created because Shia’s Kiai had not been legitimized by Sunni’s Kiai.
