Abstract

Internal contestation within Muslim communities over who embodies the ideal of moderation is often problematic, including among the descendants of the 18th-century Hadrami Arab diaspora in the Archipelago. Through qualitative research focusing on the Hadrami community dynamics in Pontianak, this article reveals divisions and internal conflicts within the community, leading to a contest over who could claim to be the most moderate. The study situates the exceptionalism of Hadrami elites in Pontianak within a "religious field," following Bourdieu’s framework, and draws on Rijal’s (2024) concept of viewing “Ḥabā’ib as symbolic capital” in religious competence, which is reinforced by their exclusive lineage, symbols, and rituals. This pursuit of Hadrami exceptionalism in moderation, in turn, gave rise to a sense of moral obligation referred to as "the Hadrami man’s burden." While theological and philosophical debates surrounding religious moderation persist, various perspectives at the vernacular level converge on the idea that being a moderate Muslim represents the virtuous ideal, forming the core of the ideological system through which some elites assert and cultivate their influence and power.

Abstract

Tourism operations in Kampung Topeng, or Mask Village, Malang City, Indonesia, stagnated in the post-COVID era before closing permanently. This study examines the public policy of tourism development in Kampung Topeng by the Malang City Government through the Desaku Menanti program from the Ministry of Social Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study. Data was collected from observations, interviews, documentation, and document studies. This study found that the development of regional tourism in Malang City has been listed in the Mid-Term Regional Development Plan, which contains two priority aspects, the development of urban tourist destinations and the improvement of community welfare. The problems in the tourism sector can be attributed to the top-down government policies, low community participation, the succession of the Head of Social Service in Malang City, and the disintegration between the Social Service, Tourism Office, and Civil Service Police. This disintegration was caused by relocation that failed to empower. The findings emphasize the importance of considering community aspirations in creating sustainable and participatory policies.

Abstract

The shariatization of customs and regional regulations on women form an interdependence between morality, sexuality, and the nation. Currently, there are at least fifteen Shari’a regulations in West Sumatra that target women's bodies and expressions. This study employs a reflective approach, drawing from personal experience in the Minangkabau context, and critically examines the concept of sumbang duo baleh—a set of twelve female characteristics deemed inappropriate according to custom. Aiming to trace the roots of these regional regulations or Shari’a policies in West Sumatra, especially those regulating women's activity and expression, the analysis focuses on three key issues: First, custom-discursiveness and shariatization of the body and morals of Minang women nowadays. Second, the portrait of women in the sumbang duo baleh, critical factors, and how women’s characters are projected into custom ideals. Third, moral construction through the gaze mechanism and its implementation in the Shari’a regulations. This systematic analysis reveals underlying gender injustice in the way individuals are positioned within the framework of sumbang duo baleh.__________The original draft of this article has been presented at the 23rd Annual International Conference on Islamic Studies (AICIS), February 1-4, 2024 at Universitas Islam Negeri Walisongo Semarang, Indonesia.

Abstract

Sexual violence on campus is a serious problem that requires immediate attention and action. This research aims to identify and explore implementation barriers and strategies for higher education institutions (HEIs) to create safe and comfortable campuses free from sexual violence. This research is qualitative-descriptive, with multiple study sites in Central Java and Special Region Yogyakarta, i.e., Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS), Universitas Pembangunan Nasional Veteran Yogyakarta (UPN Veteran Yogyakarta), Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY), Institut Seni Indonesia Surakarta (ISI Surakarta), and Universitas Islam Negeri Walisongo Semarang (UIN Walisongo). The results indicate the main obstacles of HEIs in creating safe and comfortable campuses free of sexual violence are inadequate and not gender responsive in preventing and handling sexual violence. The HEIs need to build a more robust and comprehensive foundation to create a space that is free from sexual violence and supports the welfare of all academic community members. The findings suggest that the strategies to be developed are embedding the issue in the learning process, strengthening governance, and building community networks and collaborative partnerships.

Abstract

Bale Balaq is a traditional house construction built based on the local wisdom of the Sasak tribe. The Malaka village community is one of the Sasak tribe communities that still use Bale Balaq as their residential dwelling. This study uses a qualitative, phenomenological approach. The findings describe that the design of the Bale Balaq building is based on local wisdom, including the materials used in its construction, such as wood, thatch, bobok (coconut leaves), and bamboo, as well as the rules governing the construction of Bale Balaq. Bale Balaq is not just a place to live; each structure within Bale Balaq holds philosophical values that serve as a way of life. Bale Balaq is interpreted as a character that reflects identity, provides safety for those living within it, and offers comfort to its inhabitants. Moreover, Bale Balaq is resistant to disasters such as earthquakes.

Abstract

The imposition of mandatory hijab in Indonesia is a growing concern that highlights tensions between religious expression and women’s rights. Despite Indonesia’s pluralistic ideas, the enforcement of hijab, for example in schools or public institutions, continues to affect women and girls, reflecting a broader struggle over religious authority and national identity. This study employs a qualitative approach through case studies of several incidents where women were compelled to wear the hijab. Data collection involved document analysis and media review to understand the socio-political and historical dynamics shaping hijab enforcement. Findings show that hijab enforcement persists in various public institutions, including schools, where women are pressured to conform to dress codes based on certain Islamic interpretations. This reflects the hegemonic entanglement of religion and politics in regulating women’s bodies. We identify diverse discourses within the Muslim community regarding the necessity of hijab, revealing internal contestation over religious interpretation. Moreover, the politicization of hijab is deeply rooted in Indonesia’s historical trajectory, including noninclusive education. These findings call for a critical repositioning of the hijab discourse in Indonesia, grounded in democratic values, gender equity, and religious inclusivity. __________The original draft of this article has been presented at the 23rd Annual International Conference on Islamic Studies (AICIS), February 1-4, 2024, at Universitas Islam Negeri Walisongo Semarang, Indonesia.

Abstract

The political movement of Salafi in the form of the da’wah movement has the potential for horizontal conflict. The potential for conflict in this movement was caused by the tend of “attacking” of this movement toward traditional religious groups. This research is located in Pontianak City West Kalimantan and uses qualitative methods and field research. The data was analyzed using the Islamist theory. The findings of this research are: First, the Salafi Islamic movement is a da’wah movement. The Manhaj Salafi (the Salafi Way) carries out tarbiyah and economic activities. Second, the Manhaj Salafi developed in Pontianak City is an apolitical manhaj and is not a Jihadist Salafi. Third, the responses of outsider groups are diverse, but prejudice is still strong against Salafi Islam, primarily related to the doctrine and its da’wah approach. Fourth, escalation towards violence and conflicts has not been observed, but there is an escalation. Based on the rising conflict potential, it is needed the anticipation to prevent the violence of the conflict between the Salafi movement and the traditional religious groups.
