Abstract

Isu-isu gender di era kontemporer kini marak diusung oleh beberapa tokoh Feminis, salah satunya yakni Amina Wadud. Berangkat dari konstruksi sosial yang dialami semasa hidupnya, dimana perempuan mendapatkan kedudukan di bawah laki-laki, ia memunculnya paradigma baru yang memperjuangkan hak-hak perempuan. Salah satu fenomena yang menimbulkan berbagai kontroversi dari pemikiran Amina Wadud yakni pelaksanaan sholat jumat di Amerika Serikat dimana dia menjadi imam sholat bagi jamaah yang terdiri dari laki-laki dan perempuan. Berbagai kritik datang dari beberapa ulama klasik terutama di bidang fikih mengenai hal tersebut. Pada redaksi hadis yang diriwayatkan oleh Ummu Waraqah, hadis tersebut dinilai shahih derajatnya. Dalam hal ini, Amina Wadud memberikan tanggapan yang pro terhadap hadis tersebut dengan metodologi yang baru yakni hermeneutika feminisme.Dalam penelitian ini penulis menggunakan analisis hermenutika feminisme yang dikembangkan Amina Wadud Muhsin dimana di dalamnya terdapat penelitian metodologis dan analitis untuk menelisik paradigma yang dibangun oleh Amina Wadud dalam menanggapi hadis tersebut.[On this article refers to issues gender in this contemporary era which is intensely brought by several feminist figures, one of them is Amina Wadud. According to the social construction during her lifetime, when women were subordinated over the man, therefore she brings a new paradigm which is the fight for women’s rights. One of the controversy phenomena from Amina Wadud’s thought is that she performs as imam during Jumah’s prayer for both men and women. Many critics come from several classic ulama, mainly in the fiqh field, concerning about that issue. On the redaction of hadith narrated by Ummu Waraqah, that is included to shahih based on the level. In this case, Amina Wadud gives an affirmative response regarding the hadith with a new methodology, Feminism Hermeneutic. In this observation, the author uses analysis of feminism hermeneutic that developed by Amina Wadud which includes the analytical and methodological observation to know the paradigm used by Amina in hadith.]

Abstract

Gender equality is a great desire of the world community. Measure of a country's development is the existence of gender justice. This principle is a process that ensures a balance between men and women in access and opportunities, participation in decision-making and control of development benefits. The existence of strong current in the international world coupled with the lack of readiness of the people of Indonesia, where the response is sluggish as evidenced by the birth of KKG bill was cause polemics. There is not a society that can spontaneously accept those values but are not always opposed to these values permanently.

Abstract

The most important woman's right according to Islam is the right for education. The history shows that Islam came to deconstruct the culture of Dark Age society: the culture that discriminated women and did not take into account the rights of women including women's educational right. Islam, then, gives women and men the same dignity and access to knowledge. The dignity in Islam is not determined by one's prosperity, physical measurement, or public recognition. It is determined solely by one's piety. In the context of Indonesia, R.A. Kartini's assertion concerning the urgency of education for women is valuable. She affirms: "the intelligence of people in this country (Indonesia) will not be significantly increasing if women are left behind: women are the caregivers of civilization, How could women as the mother of this country educate the children if they are not uneducated?"

Abstract

Islam telah menganugerahkan identitas yang tinggi dan bermartabat kepada perempuan dengan hukum-hukum  taklif dan akhlak yang mulia, mengeluarkannya dari perbudakan, kehancuran dan hilangnya jati diri, dan memandangnya dengan kemuliaan dan penghormatan di tengah masyarakat ketika tidak seorangpun ingin melahirkan seorang anak perempuan.  Artikel ini membahas perempuan dalam Islam, terutama menurut perspektif madzhab Ja’fari yang akan menjawab pertanyaan-pertanyaan dan problema-problema yang muncul terkait perempuan dan kedudukannya dalam Islam dengan bersandar kepada ayat-ayat al-Quran dan riwayatriwayat. Dengan demikian, Islam telah memberikan kehidupan kepada perempuan. Islam telah merubah tradisi-tradisi terdahulu dan menyebutkan perempuan sebagai penyebab turunnya rahmat Allah swt. Dari satu sisi, membesarkan dan mendidik perempuan dijadikan sebagai sumber kebahagiaan kedua orang tua dan dari sisi lain, Islam memberikan penghormatan kepada seorang ibu dengan ungkapan yang terkenal: “Surga di bawah telapak kaki ibu.”

Abstract

The concept of waliin marriage contract is essentially a mean to ascertain the attainment of the goal of a marriage, that is to maintain harmony between a husband and wife in their familial life. The institution of wali (guardianship) is meant to guarantee the rights, safety and welfare of the underage brides before and after they enter their marital life. Thus, it can be said that wali for a brU1e is needed when she is not adult yet, and has no capability to conduct legal acts by herself Meanwhile a waliwho is meant to be her protector should be an adult person with sound judgment and ability to perform legal acts so that the wali can perform the duties appropriately. If the main condition of wali is adulthood and soundness of judgment, then women, not only men, can be a wali, as it is believed by the Hanafis.

Abstract

This article describes the concept of mahram in the Qur' an. The word mahram is mentioned 83 times in the Qur'an, and it relates or addresses to various issues: from food, bank interest to kinships. This present study discusses the mahram concept in its relation to kinship in which marriage between the designated kin is for bidden. Mahr am has been usually associated with the restrictions of women travelling alone, without accompanying mahram. However, such restriction is not found in the Qur' an but in the hadus literature. Nowadays women have participated in public affairs and traveled around the world. How shall we reconcile the idea of mahram in the Qur'an, hadits and social contexts of our time? This study suggests that the Qur'anic idea of mahram is for maintaining the familial chain particularly among those for whom marrying each other is not permissible. It is not for prohibiting women from travelling. In the latter concern, the the guarding of women's safety might be replaced by social system.

Abstract

Kajian ini hendak melihat fenomena ajaran Salafi tentang kesetaraan gender. Sebagaimana diketahui, secara umum pemahaman ajaran Salafi cenderung memandang peran perempuan secara terbatas, baik di ruang domestik dan ruang publik. Fenomena tersebut mengakar kuat hingga dipraktekkan dalam basis pendidikan pesantren Salafiyyah. Namun demikian, terjadi pergeseran paham di kalangan elit pesantren Salafiyyah di Jambi, di mana, mereka mulai memberikan ruang kepada perempuan untuk berinteraksi di ruang publik. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif, dengan pengumpulan data melalui observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Fokus penelitian dilaksanakan di dua Pesantren Salafi, al Baqiyatush Shalihat di Kabupaten Tanjung Jabung Barat dan Sa’adatuddarain di Seberang Kota Jambi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan: Pertama, secara umum kaum Salafi di kedua Pesantren memahami adanya kesetaraan antara laki-laki dan perempuan. Mereka mengartikulasikan ayat-ayat al- Qur’an lebih luwes. Namun, dalam persoalan kepemimpinan perempuan, mereka masih “membatasi” dengan berasumsi bahwa Qs. An-Nisa: 34 sudah final. Kedua, terjadi perubahan dalam memahami isu gender terutama di Pesantren al Baqiyatush-Shalihat, di mana, mereka lebih moderat dengan memberikan akses kepada perempuan untuk beraktivitas di ruang publik, seperti untuk sekolah, kuliah hingga bekerja. Hal yang berbeda ditemukan di Pesantren Sa’adatuddarain. Kalangan elit pesentren belum memberikan kebebasan kepada perempuan untuk melakukan aktivitas di luar pesantren. Ketiga, pemahaman elit pesantren Salafi tidak berpengaruh di lingkungan sekitar pesantren, terbukti para perempuan di sekitar pesantren tetap aktif berkegiatan di ruang publik sebagaimana pemahaman moderasi Islam selama ini.[This study wants to look at the phenomenon of Salafi teachings on gender equality. In general, the Salafis see the role of women is limited, both in the domestic and public sphere. This phenomenon is so deeply rooted that it is practiced on the basis of the Salafiyyah Islamic boarding school. However, there was a shift in understanding among the Salafiyyah pesantren elite in Jambi, in which they began to provide space for women to interact in the public sphere. This study uses a qualitative approach and collects the data through observation, interviews and documentation. The focus of the study was conducted at two Salafi Pesantren, al Baqiyatush Shalihat in Tanjung Jabung Barat District and Sa’adatuddarain in Seberang, Jambi City. The results show that : First, in general, the Salafis in both Pesantren understand the existence of equality between men and women. They articulate verses of the Qur’an more flexible. However, in the case of women’s leadership, they still “limit” women, by assuming that the interpretation of Qs. An-Nisa: 34 is final. Secondly, there has been a change in understanding gender issues especially in al Baqiyatush-Shalihat Islamic Boarding School, where they are more moderate by giving access to women to do activities in public spaces, such as for schools, going to university and working. Different thing is found in the Sa’adatuddarain Islamic Boarding School. The elite Pesantren have not given freedom to women to carry out activities outside the Pesantren. Third, the understanding of the Salafi Pesantren elite does not affect the environment around the Pesantren. Itt is a fact that the women around the Pesantren remain active in public spaces as it is found in moderate Islam.]

Abstract

This paper discusses the dynamics of violence against women in informal marital  relations based on the experience and institutional data of RifkaAnnisa Yogyakarta. This paper will discuss the characteristics of victims and perpetrators in informal marriages, the dynamics of violence experienced by victims and the factors behind informal marriages. This research will affirm that all women who are victims of violence in informal and polygamous marriages experience physical, sexual, economic and emotional violence. The myth that second wives or young wives are pampered compared to first wives is disproved here. Even though it may happen occasionally, they are still at risk of economic violence. The most common form of economic violence are in the forms of abandonment or forcing their wives to work. Informal marriage and polygamous marriages continue to happen due to several conducive factors, among them: the low legal awareness of victims and lack of legal sanctions for perpetrators of informal marriages, the view that religion opens the possibility for informal marriages, the social paradigm which strengthens the superiority of men over women, family support and society’s permissiveness to informal marriages and the ongoing violence against women.
