Abstract

The study of masculinities in the context of film is currently attracting global attention from researchers. However, there are still a few researchers who study Muslim men as heroes in the context of Indonesian films. In this regard, this research aims to explore Muslim male heroes in Indonesian horror and silat films through the perspective of masculinity. This research employs qualitative methods, with data collection techniques conducted through a literature review. The data used were Indonesian horror and silat films from 1970 to 2020. The results of this study reveal the following key findings. The results of this study show the following findings. First, in Indonesian horror films, there is a type of male Muslim hero who performs exorcism of demons that possess human bodies; performs exorcism of demons that disturb and cause terror to families/citizens; and fights against black magic shamans. Second, in Indonesian silat films, the type of Muslim male hero is often depicted as a tough, strong, and mighty figure, fighting against the Dutch colonizers. Third, Muslim male heroes who appear in Indonesian films, both horror and silat, are not fully the main hero character. Globally, this research is expected to contribute to Islamic studies on male heroes in films from the perspective of masculinity, a topic that has been rarely explored in Islamic studies.

Abstract

The principle of popular sovereignty constitutes a fundamental doctrine in modern constitutional democracy, positioning the people as the ultimate source of political legitimacy. However, within Islamic political thought, this principle has often been perceived as theoretically problematic due to its assumed tension with the doctrine of divine sovereignty (ḥākimiyyah Allāh). This article aims to reconstruct the principle of popular sovereignty from the perspective of fiqh siyasah, moving beyond the conventional dichotomy between divine sovereignty and popular authority. Employing a normative-philosophical approach combined with conceptual and historical analysis, this study examines classical Islamic political doctrines alongside contemporary theories of sovereignty and constitutionalism. The findings demonstrate that fiqh siyasah does not reject popular sovereignty per se, but rather reframes it as a form of delegated, ethically bounded authority. Sovereignty, in this perspective, is not an absolute right of the people to legislate without limits, but a collective mandate exercised within the normative framework of Islamic law and oriented toward the realization of justice and public welfare (maqāṣid al-sharī’ah). Popular will acquire legitimacy not merely through procedural majority, but through its conformity with substantive ethical principles. This reconstruction offers a conceptual synthesis between Islamic political jurisprudence and modern democratic governance. It further shows that democratic institutions in Muslim-majority states can operate within a framework of constitutional and ethical sovereignty without negating Islamic normative foundations. In the Indonesian context, this model provides a theoretical basis for strengthening substantive democracy by integrating popular sovereignty with constitutional values and moral accountability. The article contributes to contemporary Islamic political thought by offering a prescriptive framework that bridges normative Islamic principles and modern constitutional practice.

Abstract

The crisis of commitment to green theology has been sublimated into collective consciousness, making the potential ecological damage caused by ritual practices often seem normal or acceptable. However, this issue tends to be overlooked in academic discussions. This study adopts a qualitative descriptive approach using a case study method. Data collection and analysis were conducted intensively by examining online news articles published between May 29 and June 11, 2025, using the keywords “climate change, ritual, and ecological knowledge” via the Google search engine. The findings indicate that ritual practices conducted in natural settings frequently disregard their long-term ecological implications. This situation is further exacerbated by the use of non-environmentally friendly ritual materials, such as plastic and synthetic substances, which leave residues that are not easily biodegradable. The lack of waste management and the absence of ecological rehabilitation efforts following the rituals reflect a weak commitment to green theology in the implementation of tradition-based rituals. The significance of this study lies in its emphasis on the need to reorient traditional ritual practices so that they are theologically and ecologically integrated, thereby supporting environmental preservation without compromising religious intentions and cultural values.

Abstract

This article examines the leadership of Nyai Hj. Masriyah Amva at Pesantren Kebon Jambu Al-Islamy as a negotiated reconstruction of religious authority within the patriarchal structure of traditional Nahdlatul Ulama pesantren. Drawing on Raewyn Connell’s gender regime theory, the study conceptualizes pesantren not as rigid institutions but as social spaces in which gendered authority is continuously produced and contested. Based on a qualitative case study involving in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, this article shows that sufi spirituality, religious poetry, and symbolic practices function as key sources of legitimacy that enable Nyai Masriyah to exercise leadership without directly confronting established institutional norms. Her spiritual experience and ethical authority gradually reconfigure male-dominated leadership arrange-ments by opening space for women’s participation within accepted religious frameworks. This study contributes to gender and Islamic studies by demonstrating how spiritual authority operates as a context-specific resource for institutional transformation, positioning pesantren as sites of negotiated gender change within traditional Muslim communities.

Abstract

The global energy transition has increased demand for critical minerals used in electric vehicle batteries, positioning nickel as a strategic resource. In Indonesia, this demand is linked to a state-led downstreaming agenda centered on the Indonesia Morowali Industrial Park (IMIP), a major hub for nickel processing. This article examines how sustainability narratives are used to drive extractive expansion in IMIP. It adopts a qualitative single-case study design and uses a desk review of policy documents, corporate reports, gray literature, media sources, and academic studies from 2013 to 2025. The analysis is guided by Dunlap’s framework of green extractivism. The findings show that IMIP reflects four interrelated features of green extractivism. Climate crisis and energy transition narratives are used to justify rapid industrial expansion. Extractive activities are legitimized through sustainability claims such as green development, ESG, and decarbonization. Downstreaming remains dependent on conventional extractivism, including upstream mining, land conversion, and coal-based energy systems. Sustainability is framed as a manageable technical issue, while socioecological impacts continue to accumulate, including environmental degradation, health risks, and livelihood disruption. This article contributes by extending the analysis of green extractivism beyond Latin America and by showing how it operates through a state-led downstreaming and industrial park model. It demonstrates that sustainability narratives can function as a justification for extractive expansion, raising concern about the conditions under which green industrialization can be aligned with meaningful environmental and social outcomes.

Abstract

The Antasari State Islamic University Sharia Faculty encounters several obstacles in teaching Arabic due to the theoretical syntax textbooks that are irrelevant to students' needs. These books contain difficult examples, complex grammatical rules, and elaborate and complicated syntactic parsing (i‘rāb). This study seeks to create functional syntax theory instructional materials. Evaluate the feasibility of these materials. Assess the effectiveness of the materials in the academic performance of the learners. The approach employed is Research and Development (R&D) using a modified Borg & Gall model. Data was collected using observation, interviews, questionnaires, tests, and documentation. Data was analysed qualitatively using the Miles and Huberman technique, and quantitatively through t-test analysis using SPSS. Based on the findings, the developed grammar materials have considered the simplification of the elements of iʿrāb: mawqiʿ, iʿrāb, ḥukm iʿrāb, and ʿalāmat al-iʿrāb: Table, which enhances understanding; An inductive approach was also employed alongside the theory of syntactic function, which stipulates that 'the endings of the words are modified because of their position and function in the sentence, not because of ʿāmil. The syntax instructional materials developed in this study received excellent evaluations from Arabic language experts and instructional design specialists. Additionally, Arabic syntax experts and students from non-Arabic studies programs in the Faculty of Sharia also provided very positive evaluations. All research participants agreed that the instructional materials are suitable for syntax teaching. The results of the T-test indicate a significant difference between the pre-test scores prior to using the developed syntax instructional materials and the post-test scores after the students had utilized these materials. This is evidenced by a significance value of 0.000, which is smaller than the alpha value of 0.050. Therefore, it can be concluded that the use of the developed nahwu instructional materials is effective in improving the academic performance of students from Sharia faculty members who are not in Arabic study programs.

Abstract

This study examines Bedengah and Mentanak — traditional parenting systems practiced by Sasak Muslims in Lombok, Indonesia — proposing them as culturally-regulated and religiously-regulated frameworks that extend beyond Western developmental typologies. Through ethnographic research conducted across three traditional villages over nine months, involving 30 informants and utilizing participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation analysis, the study reveals how these parenting systems incorporate age-specific practices, ritual ceremonies, intergenerational skill transmission, and extended family involvement deeply rooted in Sasak cultural values and Islamic teachings. The findings expose three critical dimensions inadequately captured in Baumrind's (1971) conventional framework: (1) cultural tradition as a self-sustaining regulatory system governing child behavior across developmental stages; (2) religion as a structural architecture rather than mere value content shaping parenting; and (3) parenting as a collective community responsibility extending far beyond the parent-child dyad. While Bedengah and Mentanak provide robust cultural identity formation and moral scaffolding, they also confront contemporary pressures stemming from higher educational aspirations among youth, debates over Islamic orthodoxy regarding local ritual legitimacy, and household economic constraints. This study contributes theoretically to cross-cultural parenting scholarship by proposing an indigenous conceptual framework that recognizes cultural and religious structure — not merely content — as the organizing logic of child-rearing, with direct implications for designing culturally adaptive child-protection policies, family-welfare programs, and parenting education curricula in rural Muslim-majority communities in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research is a field study using an ethnographic approach that examines halal cultural practices from the perspective of Islamic eco-theology within Madurese society. The research focuses on two communities: Karang Penang Sampang Village and Lenteng Village in Sumenep Regency, Madura, which maintain traditional religious practices and resource management based on Sharia values and local wisdom. Data were collected through participatory observation, field documentation, and in-depth interviews with key informants, including religious leaders, traditional elders, women involved in cultural activities, local farmers, and young people active in the preservation of traditions. Research findings indicate that halal culture is understood not only as adherence to fiqh norms, but also as a form of ecological ethics that governs the relationship between humans and nature. For example, in the tradition “Mèngghulè,” in the lead-up to the Prophet’s Birthday or Ramadan, communities engage in communal cooking rituals, using pesticide-free local ingredients, slaughtering animals in accordance with Islamic law, and serving food on natural containers such as banana leaves. Meanwhile, within the settlement system “Tanean Lanjhang”, a pattern of collective life was discovered that reflects ecological and spiritual harmony through the management of water, land, and food based on family values. Values such as barokah (blessing), sakkena (peace), and the principle of al-halal bi thayyib serve as guidelines for the community’s social and ecological practices. This study shows that the halal culture in Madura is a manifestation of Islamic eco-theology that is contextual, sustainable, and rooted in local culture.

Abstract

The growth of cultural tourism has intensified debates on authenticity, sustainability, and the ethical integration of indigenous practices into tourism development. In East Lombok, the Bejeleng traditionl”a sacred Sasak ritual associated with the production of traditional coconut oil (minyak Jeleng) embodies these tensions because it is governed by strict spiritual regulations, collective participation, and ritual purity. This study examines how Bejeleng can be strategically integrated into Lombok's cultural tourism development without compromising its spiritual integrity. Grounded in Greg Richards cultural tourism framework, the study employs a qualitative phenomenological approach to understand indigenous spirituality as a collective social experience. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews with religious leaders and ritual participants, and documentary analysis, and were analyzed through a two-stage thematic procedure combining inductive, participant-driven open coding with theoretically informed deductive interpretation based on Richards cultural tourism framework. The findings show that integrating Bejeleng into cultural tourism must be selective, value-based, and community-led. Indigenous spirituality functions as a non-negotiable boundary against ritual commodification, while community leadership regulates external engagement. Tourist involvement is limited to non-ritual domains, including observation and the use of ritual-derived products, whereas economic benefits remain controlled secondary outcomes that do not alter ritual practices. This study contributes to cultural tourism scholarship by extending Richards framework to sacred ritual production processes and demonstrating that meaningful cultural experiences can be constructed through symbolic proximity rather than direct participation.
