Abstract

Sufism has long been associated with tolerance because of its theological nature that focuses on inner peace. However, this view tends to overlook that Sufi movements are often involved in politics and nationalist discourse. This study explains the social movement logic of a tarekat movement in Indonesia in promoting tolerance and nationalism. JATMAN (Jam’iyyah Ahl al-Thariqot al-Mu’tabarah an-Nahdliyyah) is well-known as a Sufi group currently led by Habib Luthfi. This movement calls to Bela Negara (defending Indonesia) by the jargon ‘NKRI Harga Mati’ (the doctrine of love for the homeland) and Handarbeni (being proud to locality). This research employs multiple analysis methods to examine the factors that underpin the emergence of this movement. I analyzed Habib Luthfi bin Yahya’s lectures (Rais 'Amm JATMAN) from 2020-2021, scattered on several online media such as YouTube and Instagram. Besides, I conducted interviews with several kiai in Idarah 'Aliyah (the central administrator of JATMAN) and I analyzed dozens of events organized by JATMAN in online media. Drawing on social movement theory, I argue that various motivations are overshadowed by the emergence of JATMAN within nationalism. This movement may not only be driven by piety and theological doctrine (Sufism) but also by social movement logics such as political opportunity structure, resource mobilization, and cultural framing.

Abstract

Epistemologically, the science of huduri is a form of knowledge acquired by humans directly from Allah SWT, without having to involve the work of mind conceptually and the work of the senses visually, but through the heart (qalb) which is clean of various impurities and hijab. This article is the result of library research with a hermeneutics-phenomenological approach, considering that the source of the data is in the form of a classical text that has been published. The unit of problem of this research is "recognizing the epistemology of the science of huduri in the tradition of philosophical Sufism". The data sources in this study are literature related to the epistemological concept of the science of hu danuri, and the works of others related to the discussion. The findings from the results of this study are that the concept of huduri science is much influenced by various concepts that have developed before, both philosophy, mysticism, and kalam, which are then harmonized with the Qur'an and al-Hadith by Mulla Sadrā.

Abstract

The changes in lecturing methods during the Covid-19 pandemic created special pressure for students. The pressures and changes that occur in an individual have an impact on the emergence of stressful conditions. In the General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS) approach, the stressors lead a stress response beginning from the alarm, resistance and Exhaustion phases. In particular, this study discusses the conditions in the last phase, namely the Exhaustion phase. This online lecturing lasts a long time, so it requires high performance from students, and how the conditions in this Exhaustion phase describe the condition of their performance so far. This study used an open questionnaire which revealed Exhaustion responses based on the GAS approach. The study involved 50 students consisting of students from semester 3 to semester 7. The results of this study showed that the Exhaustion conditions of students who conducted online lectures appeared physical responses in the form of physical fatigue such as dizziness, physical fatigue and eye problems. Meanwhile, the psychological response appears a feeling of relief and feelings of sadness and disappointment.

Abstract

The Islamization on Java was first carried out by the Nine Ulema who came to be known as "Walisongo". Da'wah carried out by Walisongo is considered an effective and efficient Islamization process. This is because the Da'wah concept offered by Walisongo. The concept of walisongo da’wah is in the form of Javanese Sufism. Javanese Sufism can be interpreted as a process of Islamization that uses local culture as a medium for da'wah and is slowly incorporating elements of religious nature (Islam) into its cultural content. Thus, the religious appreciation that Walisongo instilled in Javanese people indirectly became their philosophy of life. The philosophy of life contains Sufistic values that prioritize morals, spirituality, and culture (local wisdom). Therefore, Javanese people can easily adapt and compromise with Islam. This paper aims to illustrate the value of Sufism in the Walisongo mission. This paper was prepared using a descriptive qualitative approach to explain an event, situation, or object related to Walisongo's subject. The results showed that the Walisongo da’wah with Sufistic values that were applied in an adaptive and compromising manner could be an ideal model of da'wah and diversity that could be applied in the current millennial era.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the letter sciences concerning form objects and their material objects as well as some axioms in letter sciences with the ‘Irfan Naari approach and evaluate the prospects for the application of this field in the field as a healing medium with a sufistic approach. The method used in this research is analytical descriptive approach to Falsafi Sufism. The results showed that the existence of supernatural acts such as magic, talisman, sha'badha, niīranjâ, miracles and sacred and also those who oppose habits (kharq al-'ādah) cannot be denied, both in akli and naqli. The Science of Letters ('ilm al-ūurūf), is one part of the Strange Sciences (al-ūulūm al-gharībah), that is knowledge that can be learned by which one can cause supernatural actions. Some Sufi orders have applied this knowledge in Sufi medicine (Sufi Healing). Empirical evidence about supernatural actions arising from the application of the Science of Letters, as reported by Ibn Khaldun in Muqaddimah, is valid. But now this science has stalled. Although it is still practiced, no new original works have been published in this field of science. Among the causes is the assumption of most Muslims that this science is occult, even labeled shirk and heresy. Moreover, in the Science of Letters itself is stored theoretical problems that require answers, namely how to prove the existence of the concrete existence of letters and letter privileges intended by the Science of Letters.

Abstract

This article examines the moral of religion in the discourse of mutual greetings between culture and religious teachings in Indonesia. A reality from a religious journey, including Islam, is that culture is an important element in its development. Discarding culture in the course of religion also eliminates historical aspects and has an impact on the emptiness of substantial values, such as spiritual emptiness and moral emptiness. So, to weave elements of the development of Indonesian Islam, dialogic reading is needed which emphasizes the moral aspects of each element. Qualitative methods are used to describe inductively using liberary research data sources which emphasize descriptive analysis. Thus, this reading can produce a new construction of the journey of Indonesian Islam, because it not only emphasizes the docmatic aspects, but also considers other aspects, such as historical, sociological, and psychological. The variety of aspects in this paper is an Indonesian Islamic identity which will differ in character and style from Islam in other countries.

Abstract

A new face of urban sufism: Millenial sufism of mahasiswa ahlith thariqah al-mu’tabarah an-nahdliyah. In recent years, the phenomenon of urban sufism has become a religious trend in urban areas to meet the spiritual needs of the community. During this trend, the MATAN organization (Mahasiswa Ahlith Thariqah Al-Mu’tabarah An-Nahdliyyah), based on youth and students, offers a different model of sufism. This study aims to analyze how the model of the sufism movement developed by MATAN during the urban sufism trend, which generally develops in urban areas. By using applied scientific research, this research focuses on the organizational activities of the MATAN Commissariat of UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta. This study concludes that compared to other urban sufism trends, the model of the sufism movement brought by MATAN is more moderate. The millennial sufism movement still adheres to the thariqah mu'tabarah tradition while still encouraging the active role of members in social life and the development of science and technology. As an organization, MATAN can balance the dimensions of self-spiritual development and the dimensions of intellectual development and strengthen the nationalism of its members. These three dimensions are implemented in activities that are amali, akhlaki, and falsafi.
