Abstract

Efforts to integrate science and revelation in Islamic campuses have been underway since the 1970s; however, the extent to which these aspirations have been achieved still requires further discussion. This study examines how the integration of knowledge is manifested at USIM and UIN SU Medan. The focus is on the theoretical-philosophical framework, objectives, implementation processes, strategic priorities, and challenges of science integration. The research primarily relies on written data from guidebooks and reports on science integration at both campuses, analyzed using Content Analysis. The study found that both campuses share similarities in terms of philosophy and theory of integration, despite using different terminologies and jargons. They also face relatively similar challenges. On the other hand, there are significant differences between the two campuses in terms of governance and clarity of work plans. As an experience, the findings of this study can contribute to similar efforts at other campuses.

Abstract

This paper examines the living tradition of Bay’ah Lima, rooted in the teachings of Sheikh Musthafa Husein al-Mandily, with particular attention to its historical development and transformation. Using a qualitative-historical approach and drawing on Eric Hobsbawm’s theory of Invented Tradition, the study highlights three key findings: first, Bay’ah Lima emphasizes loyalty to both religion and the nation; second, while the formal practice of oath-taking is no longer observed in Pesantren Musthafawiyah, it has evolved into forms more relevant to contemporary contexts; and third, its values remain embedded in classroom teaching, pesantren activities, and national commemorations. These findings illustrate that traditions may shift in form while retaining their essence. The study underscores the role of pesantren as a vital force in shaping Indonesian nationalism, countering assumptions that Islamic education fosters anti-nationalist sentiment, and recommends that pesantren continuously contextualize their practices to sustain both religious and national consciousness.

Abstract

This study explores audience reception of the Malaysian drama Bidaah through the perspectives of pedagogy and media literacy, focusing on how cinematic depictions of religious manipulation shape perceptions in Malaysia and Indonesia. Using a descriptive-exploratory qualitative method supported by quantitative data, the research analyzed social media discourse, surveyed 100 respondents, and interviewed 20 Islamic educators from both countries. Findings show divided responses: Indonesian audiences tended to value the film’s artistic critique of spiritual abuse, while most educators expressed concern about its potential to distort views of Islamic leadership. Thematic analysis highlights issues of charismatic dominance, symbolic language, and emotional religious rhetoric in media. The study argues that educators should move beyond binary judgments and instead foster critical, ethical media engagement. Bidaah thus becomes not only a cinematic controversy but also a pedagogical opportunity to nurture discernment, compassion, and media-literate faith.

Abstract

Caught between the pull of tradition and the push of modernity, pesantren is undergoing a crucial transformation in the landscape of Indonesian Islamic education. This study explores how pesantrens maintain their classical roots while integrating modern educational practices. It employs a narrative review with data collected from relevant peer-reviewed literature. These data are synthesized according to common themes and analyzed qualitatively. The review reveals that, despite external pressures (e.g., colonial rule and state policies) and its active role in civil society, pesantren continues to preserve traditional Islam by sustaining classical Islamic scholarship, moral teachings, and kyai-led authority. At the same time, modernization has strongly influenced pesantren education, with many institutions expanding their curricula, adopting inclusive governance, utilizing digital tools, and aligning with national education policies to strengthen institutional capacity and relevance. These pesantrens demonstrate a careful balancing act; they selectively integrate modern educational reforms while upholding their religious traditions although certain issues still merit further attention. Overall, these findings underscore the pesantren’s resilience, adaptability, and significance in today’s Indonesian educational context.

Abstract

This study examines how the multiple identities of the Mindanao Muslim minority in Metro Manila influence their loyalty to the Philippine state. Using qualitative methods through Focus Group Discussions and in-depth interviews conducted in Quiapo, Maharlika Village, and Culiat, the research applies Creswell’s qualitative data analysis framework. The findings reveal four key tendencies: (1) reluctance to identify as Filipinos due to historical, cultural, and religious dissonance; (2) prioritization of ethnic and religious over national identity; (3) pragmatic identification as Filipinos for bureaucratic purposes; and (4) successful integration of Islamic, Bangsamoro, and Philippine identities among a small group who perceive no inherent conflict between them. The study contributes to the discourse on Muslim minority identity negotiation by demonstrating that identity pluralism and adaptive negotiation are crucial mechanisms for sustaining minority existence within a dominant national framework

Abstract

This study examines the impact of European colonialism on the political, economic, and religious identity dynamics of Muslim communities in the Nusantara while highlighting Islam’s role as a pillar of resistance. The research analyzes primary archives and secondary literature within a “Challenge and Response” framework using a historical-qualitative methodology. Findings show that Islamic sultanates had developed strong economic and cultural networks before European colonization. Policies of monopoly and cultural assimilation by the Portuguese and Dutch triggered resistance, marked by physical opposition and the reaffirmation of religious identity. Islamic institutions such as pesantren, ulama networks, and Sufi leaders were central in fostering solidarity and anti-colonial sentiments. Resistance spanned political, cultural, and spiritual domains, positioning Islam as an inspiration for social movements. This study concludes that colonialism accelerated the formation of Islamic identity as a resistance force, paving the way for structured liberation movements.

Abstract

Dzikr (remembrance of Allah) and meditation are core spiritual practices in Islam that support inner peace and personal transformation. Grounded in the Qur’an and developed within tashawwuf (Sufism), they aim to purify the self (tazkiyah al-nafs), deepen God-consciousness, and cultivate spiritual tranquillity. This study explores the relevance of dzikr and meditation by integrating Islamic spiritual perspectives with contemporary psychological and mental-health insights. Using a qualitative–descriptive method, data were obtained through literature analysis and participatory observation in dzikr and meditation gatherings, supplemented by informal interviews. The results show that these practices enhance spiritual well-being by fostering gratitude, emotional balance, and awareness of the Divine, while also producing measurable psychological benefits such as reduced stress and increased resilience. The study concludes that dzikr and meditation remain highly relevant for promoting holistic well-being and providing accessible pathways to balance and meaning in modern life.

Abstract

Pakistani society generally interprets Islamic teachings textually, especially regarding men’s responsibility to protect women, resulting in a strong patriarchal structure. The joint family system places the eldest male as the protector for all members, giving women security in basic needs and housing. This differs from Indonesia, where Muslim communities tend to provide women with greater equality and autonomy. Using a qualitative descriptive method through field and literature research, this study finds that women in Pakistan’s joint family system receive broader support when husbands are absent or irresponsible. In contrast, women in nuclear families—common in Indonesia—often face greater vulnerability due to limited family assistance. While the joint family system enhances women’s protection, it also reinforces dependence on male authority.

Abstract

This study explores how the tharîqah khalwatiyah samman integrates social, spiritual, and religious life amid the pressures of modernity, which often promote individualism and weaken communal ties. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research examines the experiences of the mursyid, khalîfahs, and members, supported by observations of rituals and community activities. Findings show that integration unfolds on three levels. Spiritually, collective dzikr, wirid, and Qur’anic recitation cultivate inner awareness and a shared sense of devotion. Socially, gotong royong, community service, and mutual support strengthen solidarity and cohesion. Institutionally, the tarekat extends its influence through education, charity, and moral guidance, allowing its values to reach the broader community. Interpreted through Talcott Parsons’ structural functionalism, the order operates as an adaptive system that maintains core values while fostering social harmony. Overall, the tharîqah khalwatiyah samman exemplifies a living synthesis of Sufi spirituality and communal ethics in contemporary Indonesian Islam.

Abstract

This study examines the contextual Qur’anic interpretation developed by Ahmad Sonhaji and its influence on Muslim identity formation within Singapore’s multicultural and secular social order. As a prominent religious scholar, Sonhaji articulates pluralism as part of divine ordinance, emphasizing justice, coexistence, and ethical engagement with religious diversity. Employing a qualitative research design, this study combines textual analysis of Sonhaji’s tafsir writings with semi-structured interviews involving Islamic educators in Singapore to assess the transmission and reception of his interpretive framework within Islamic educational institutions.““The findings demonstrate that Sonhaji’s contextual tafsir offers a locally grounded yet theologically coherent approach that reconciles Islamic normative teachings with the realities of plural society. His interpretation reinforces Muslim identity not through exclusivism, but through ethical responsibility, civic engagement, and interfaith respect. Integrated into both formal curricula and digital learning platforms, his ideas encourage critical thinking and participatory religious understanding, particularly among younger Muslims. This study argues that Sonhaji’s work represents an important model of localized Qur’anic scholarship that contributes to contemporary tafsir studies and Muslim minority discourse. It highlights the significance of context-sensitive interpretation in enabling Muslim communities to navigate diversity while maintaining religious authenticity.
