Abstract

While much research has explored the development of Islamic higher education, the contributions of Malay figures remain underexamined. This study investigates the development strategies of Islamic higher education through the perspective of Zaini Kunin, a prominent Malay scholar. This study a historical approach, the research involved interviews, literature analysis, and focus group discussions, analyzed through thematic identification, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The findings highlight Zaini Kunin’s method, which includes: (1) constructing an Islamic scientific framework based on Surah Al-Qashash [28]:77 across four domains—religious sciences, natural and social sciences, social ethics, and environmental sciences; (2) affirming tauhidullah (the creed of Oneness of God) as the ultimate goal; (3) embedding Islamic values in the curriculum; (4) developing sincere and committed human resources; (5) promoting social piety; and (6) fostering national and international collaboration. In conclusion, Zaini Kunin’s method for developing Islamic higher education is rooted in the foundational philosophy of Islam, as drawn from its core teachings.

Abstract

Indonesia and Malaysia, as Muslim-majority nations, are recognized for their tolerance of other religious groups. However, this study highlights underlying challenges threatening social stability in both countries. Focusing on Gorontalo, Indonesia, and Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia, the research examines the dynamics of religious pluralism and its societal challenges. Using a qualitative approach, main data were gathered through interviews with interfaith leaders, teachers, activists, and officials. The findings reveal that, while harmony and interfaith dialogue exist, challenges persist. In Gorontalo, minority communities face difficulties in constructing places of worship and acquiring suitable religious teachers. In Negeri Sembilan tensions arise over proper use of “religious plurality” or “pluralism” and the use of the term “Allah” by the Christians. Apparently, on top of the existing efforts other creative ways need to be used to strengthen religious harmony catering for the ever evolving social complexities in both regions.

Abstract

This study explores how traditionalist and modernist Muslim communities in Indonesia respond to the ethical, religious, and social implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Using a qualitative analysis of fatwas, religious texts, and scholarly discourse, the research identifies distinct approaches: traditionalists prioritize doctrinal continuity and exhibit caution, while modernists adopt more adaptive interpretations that seek to align AI with Islamic ethical principles. Despite methodological differences, both groups express shared concerns regarding AI’s influence on human agency, moral responsibility, and religious authority, while also recognizing its potential benefits when guided by Islamic values. The findings reveal that theological orientation alone does not shape responses to AI; socio-cultural factors also significantly influence how religious communities interpret emerging technologies. This study offers a nuanced perspective on how Indonesian Muslims navigate the intersection of faith, ethics, and technological advancement, contributing to broader discussions on Islamic thought and digital transformation in contemporary society.

Abstract

The digital sphere in Indonesia has evolved into a contested domain for divergent religious ideologies, particularly between radical and moderate interpretations of Islam. Over recent decades, religious radicalism has predominantly shaped the online narrative. However, the emergence of digital activism among younger generations affiliated with Nahdlatul Ulama and Muhammadiyah has led to strategic attempts at counter-narratives that emphasize religious moderation. This study investigates the role of two influential Islamic digital platforms—Islami.co and IBTimes.id—in promoting moderate Islamic discourse and shaping the religious perceptions of young Indonesian Muslims. Utilizing a mixed-methods and netnographic approach, the research integrates survey data collected from 110 university students in East Java with in-depth interviews conducted with media activists and selected platform users. The findings indicate that Islami.co and IBTimes.id are actively involved in constructing and disseminating narratives that promote Islamic moderation through curated content, strategic communication, and mission-driven digital activism. This role positions them as ideological counterbalances to radical religious narratives. The study concludes that digital media serves as a crucial platform for contemporary religious discourse and significantly influences the Islamic worldview of Indonesian Muslim youth, highlighting the importance of digital activism in promoting moderate religious values.

Abstract

Contemporary character education often lacks integration with spiritually rooted frameworks, particularly those grounded in Islamic traditions of inner purification. Despite the richness of concepts such as tazkiyah al-nafs, their practical application in modern educational settings remains limited. This study explores the concept of tazkiyah al-nafs as articulated by Abū Hasan Al-Nadwī and its relevance to contemporary character education. Using a descriptive-analytical approach, the research examines primary texts and scholarly interpretations to assess its pedagogical potential. The findings indicate that Al-Nadwī’s formulation—though distinct in its technical articulation—aligns with other scholars in four key aspects: its foundation in Qur’anic and Prophetic teachings, its position as an alternative to philosophical Sufism, its emphasis on ethical-spiritual purification through worship and social conduct, and its role in developing inner discipline. The study proposes a model for integrating tazkiyah al-nafs into character education through curriculum design, institutional culture, and a spiritually conscious learning environment.

Abstract

This study explores the role of indigenous, religious, and intellectual institutions in mitigating the social impacts of illegal gold mining on communities in West Pasaman, West Sumatra. Employing a qualitative research design, data were collected through interviews and observations involving ten key informants. Data analysis was conducted using the framework proposed by Miles and Huberman. The findings reveal that illegal gold mining has led to significant social consequences, including social conflict, economic disparities, moral degradation, and the proliferation of drug and alcohol abuse. These pressing issues have garnered serious attention from Tigo Tungku Sajarangan, a traditional leadership structure, which collaborates with the Nagari Customary Court to address these challenges. This collaboration involves various stakeholders, including nagari leaders, the Nagari Traditional Council, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) of West Pasaman, local Islamic preachers, as well as members of Muhammadiyah and Nahdlatul Ulama. Additionally, non-governmental organizations and diaspora communities also play an active role in these efforts. The initiatives undertaken through this collaboration include moral appeals, public awareness campaigns, and the imposition of customary sanctions. However, customary institutions lack the legal authority to prosecute criminal offenses, limiting their ability to enforce legal consequences. Nonetheless, their efforts contribute significantly to fostering social harmony and strengthening community resilience against the adverse effects of illegal gold mining.Keywords: Society, Impact, Illegal Gold Mining, Tigo Tungku Sajarangan

Abstract

This article explores the role of Kiai leadership and management strategies in fostering character education at Islamic boarding schools, with a focus on the integration of Sufism as a spiritual approach to shaping students’ Islamic character (akhlak). Conducted at the At-Tamur Islamic Boarding School in Bandung, the study employs a qualitative method using interviews with the school’s director, a teacher, and alumni, alongside observations and documentation. Secondary data were drawn from scholarly articles, books, and other relevant literature. The findings reveal that the Kiai’s character education strategy is deeply rooted in Sufistic principles, emphasizing both hablu minallah (relationship with God) through weekly Friday night religious recitations, and hablu minannas (relationship with others) through active community service. The study contributes to the discourse on Islamic education by showcasing the practical application of Sufism in contemporary pesantren leadership.

Abstract

This article aims to study the European Council for Fatwa and Research (ECFR)’s fatwas and legal statements concerning Muslims’ loyalties to European states. the authoritative Sunni reformist scholarly institution arguments and theses in chronological order. Next, I will examine the resources and limitations of loyalty in the ECFR’s fatwas in relation to the European securitization of loyalty. Specifically, emphasis will be placed on how, in the European setting, loyalty to secular states and Islam can coexist, complement each other, or conflict. This article uses a discourse analysis method to examine the ethical assumptions in these fatwas while also contextualizing them in the current debates on politics and ethics, drawing on sociology of religious norms. The study shows that the discourses of the European Council for Fatwa and Research advocate the ideas of multiple loyalties and the harmony and complementarity of political citizenship with religious loyalty to Islam. These findings imply the commitment of Sunni reformism to political loyalty as a moral basis of group identification, the self and the other, and the processes of forming alliances and the quest for social cohesion.

Abstract

The interpretation of the Qur'an often neglects sociological disparities, despite its inherent social dimensions. This study examines Abdullah Saeed's progressive interpretation of the Qur'an, focusing on his concept of the Islamic hierarchy of values as a framework for recontextualizing ethical-legal injunctions in modernity. Employing a descriptive-qualitative method with a hermeneutic and socio-historical approach, this research traces the epistemological foundations of Saeed’s contextual exegesis and its implications for contemporary Qur’anic scholarship. Saeed argues that ethical-legal verses must be reinterpreted in light of evolving social realities, emphasizing a dynamic hierarchy of values that prioritizes the Qur'an's overarching moral objectives over rigid textual literalism. Influenced by Fazlur Rahman’s double-movement hermeneutics, Saeed systematically develops an interpretive model that distinguishes between timeless universal principles and time-bound rulings. His approach advocates for a shift from textualist to contextual methodologies, ensuring the Qur'an’s relevance to modern challenges. This study concludes that Saeed’s hierarchy of values offers a transformative framework for progressive Qur’anic interpretation, balancing fidelity to the text with responsiveness to societal change, thereby enriching contemporary Islamic thought.

Abstract

Multiculturalism often positions the majority group as the central axis in establishing the rules of sociality. This article examines how urban social spaces in North Sumatra serve as dynamic platforms for interactions among diverse ethnic, religious, and cultural groups, with the Muslim community as the dominant majority. Using a phenomenological approach, the study explores how social realities are constructed through intergroup interactions. Field data, analyzed hermeneutically within a qualitative philosophical framework, reveal that these social spaces function both as arenas of conflict and as catalysts for integration. The findings highlight the dual roles of social spaces in fostering cooperation and preserving diverse identities, conceptualized through the metaphors of a “symphony" and a “mosaic.” The “symphony” illustrates harmonious collaboration among groups, while the “mosaic” reflects the coexistence of distinct identities. These dynamics contribute to a distinctive model of multiculturalism in Indonesia, where conflict is integrated as part of the social fabric, fostering deeper social cohesion. This research provides valuable insights for global discourses on diversity management and conflict resolution, particularly in multicultural urban societies.
