Abstract

This study aims to explore how Ustaz Das'ad Latif utilises YouTube to integrate Bugis cultural values with Islamic teachings, focusing on marriage. The research employs a multimodal discourse analysis framework to examine the ideational, interpersonal, and textual functions in Ustaz Das'ad Latif's YouTube lectures. The study reveals that Siri’ culture, central to Bugis identity, is intertwined with Islamic values, particularly regarding gender roles, honour, and family dynamics. Digital media serves as an effective tool for both preserving and reshaping these cultural values. The findings suggest that digital platforms like YouTube can serve as vital spaces for the global dissemination and transformation of local traditions, offering new interpretations that resonate across cultural boundaries. This research provides novel insights into the role of digital media in preserving local religious traditions while adapting them for broader audiences, contributing to the growing literature on religion, culture, and technology.

Abstract

This research aims to explore how the Djawa Sunda Religion (Agama Djawa Sunda-ADS) contributes to the preservation of cultural identity and religious practices in the Cigugur community, Kuningan, amidst modernisation and globalisation. Using a qualitative and ethnographic approach, the study focused on documenting the evolution and continued relevance of ADS cosmology through rituals and ceremonies such as Seren Taun. Data collection was conducted through interviews with religious leaders and community members, participant observation, and document analysis. The findings reveal that ADS plays a significant role in maintaining social cohesion and cultural continuity through its cosmological teachings and community rituals despite external pressures of cultural assimilation. The study also highlights the role of ADS in fostering religious pluralism and tolerance in a diverse religious community. The application of this research provides insights for scholars and policymakers interested in cultural preservation and religious pluralism in indigenous communities. The novelty of this study lies in its comprehensive analysis of ADS within the framework of Sundanese cosmology, contributing new perspectives on the intersection of religion, culture, and modernisation in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study explores the critical role of religious patterns in shaping responses to agricultural crises, specifically focusing on the failure of the strawberry harvest in Barudua Village, Garut, West Java. The research employs a qualitative case study approach, examining three distinct sub-villages, each with unique religious practices: exclusive-protective, participatory, and progressive. Through interviews, observations, and thematic analysis, the study reveals how these religious patterns influence the community's resilience and adaptability in the face of crisis. The findings indicate that while exclusive-protective patterns tend to foster passivity, participatory and progressive patterns encourage community engagement, innovation, and social cohesion. These results suggest that integrating religious perspectives into agricultural crisis management can enhance community resilience and offer sustainable solutions. This research provides practical insights for policymakers and community leaders, empowering them to develop culturally sensitive and effective strategies for managing agricultural challenges.

Abstract

This study explores assessment practices in Catholic religious education across junior secondary schools in Indonesia, with the primary aim of understanding how teachers evaluate student learning in plural and culturally diverse contexts. Set against the backdrop of Indonesia’s multicultural society, the research addresses the growing need for inclusive, value-based, and contextually adapted religious education. Employing a qualitative narrative phenomenological approach, the study draws upon semi-structured interviews with six Catholic religious education teachers from Western, Central, and Eastern Indonesia. Supplemented by curriculum documents and analysed using thematic analysis with ATLAS.ti, the research captures teachers’ lived experiences and assessment strategies. The findings reveal that teachers employ a hybrid model of evaluation—combining written tests, projects, discussions, and reflections—that aligns with students’ social realities and moral development. Assessment is used not only to measure knowledge, but also to reinforce ethical behaviour, religious tolerance, and community engagement. The study highlights the importance of parental involvement, technological integration, and context-responsive pedagogy in enhancing learning outcomes. The implications suggest that Catholic religious education can play a strategic role in promoting social cohesion and intercultural understanding in a plural society. This research contributes original insights by providing a regionally comparative and empirically grounded account of assessment in faith-based education, emphasising the role of teacher agency in navigating doctrinal integrity and multicultural sensitivity.

Abstract

This study investigates how religious faith moderates the relationship between happiness and life effectiveness among university students in Sabah, Malaysia, during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research aims to address the growing psychological challenges faced by youths by exploring whether internal resources such as happiness and faith can strengthen life competencies in times of crisis. A quantitative research design was employed using a cross-sectional online survey distributed to students from public and private universities in Sabah. The survey collected data from 521 participants using validated instruments to measure happiness, religious faith, and life effectiveness. The data were analysed using hierarchical regression analysis to assess the moderating effect of religious faith. The findings show that happiness significantly predicts life effectiveness, accounting for 31.3% of the variance. Religious faith adds an additional 2.7%, while the interaction between happiness and faith contributes a further 1.0%, indicating a significant moderating effect. Students who reported both high happiness and strong faith demonstrated higher levels of emotional control, time management, and initiative. The study implies that cultivating both emotional well-being and religious faith can enhance youth resilience and functional effectiveness, especially during crises. These findings have practical applications in mental health programming and student development initiatives, particularly in multicultural settings like Sabah. This study offers a novel contribution by empirically testing the moderating role of religious faith in the happiness–life effectiveness relationship—a dimension rarely explored in previous literature. It expands current understanding of psychosocial dynamics among young people in culturally diverse societies.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of ethnicity and family structure on childhood sexual abuse (CSA) experiences among women in Nigeria, with a particular focus on the moderating role of religious affiliation. Recognising the alarming national prevalence of CSA—estimated at 35%—the study addresses critical gaps in understanding how socio-cultural and familial variables intersect with religion to shape vulnerability. Using a cross-sectional, quantitative design, data were collected from 2,757 women across rural and urban areas in Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones through a multistage probability sampling method and structured electronic interviews. Descriptive, bivariate (Chi-square, Cramer’s V), and multivariate (logistic regression) analyses were conducted to assess the relationship between CSA, ethnicity, and family dynamics. Findings reveal that women from Igbo, Yoruba, and minority ethnic groups—particularly within Muslim and Christian communities—are significantly more likely to report CSA, especially those raised in polygynous households or by single parents or grandparents. Notably, Christians reported a higher prevalence of CSA than Muslims, suggesting religious variations in disclosure or exposure. These findings underscore the need for culturally and religiously sensitive interventions, policies, and child protection strategies that address ethnic and familial vulnerabilities. The originality of this study lies in its intersectional and nationally representative approach, offering a nuanced understanding that transcends the limitations of prior localised studies and contributes meaningful insights for policy and practice in child protection.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the strategies employed by churches in Nigeria—particularly in Abuja and Lagos—in responding to the challenges of secularisation, a process that reduces the societal significance of religion. As secular ideologies and materialist values reshape public consciousness, churches must adapt to remain socially relevant, especially among youth increasingly disengaged from traditional worship. Using a qualitative research design, this study integrates focus group discussions, participant observations, and secondary literature to explore how churches adopt innovative worship practices, digital technologies, and community engagement programs. Data were analysed using thematic analysis and interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA), allowing for in-depth interpretation of institutional and individual responses. Findings reveal that churches in both cities are implementing a multifaceted strategy: digital tools to attract younger audiences, community service programs to enhance public trust, and theological revisions to address ethical issues like inclusivity, social justice, and ecological responsibility. These adaptations have led to increased engagement, a stronger sense of belonging among congregants, and expanded the churches’ social roles. The study contributes to existing literature by offering a holistic understanding of church responses in a non-Western context. It highlights how the synergy between worship innovation, community service, and theological flexibility enables churches to survive and thrive in a secular environment. This research offers practical implications for church leaders, policymakers, and scholars interested in the evolving role of religion in society. The originality of this study lies in its integrated approach to secularisation and adaptation within African urban religious institutions, providing insights often overlooked in Western-centric research.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of integrating the Iceberg Analysis and the U-Process as a pedagogical framework to promote religious moderation in a multifaith Indonesian secondary school. Given the rising concern over religious intolerance and youth vulnerability to radical ideologies in pluralistic societies, the study addresses the urgent need for reflective and participatory learning approaches that can transform attitudes and behaviours. Employing a mixed-methods design, the research involved 100 students of different religious and ethnic backgrounds at SMA Negeri 1 Barus Jahe, North Sumatra. Data were collected through pre-tests, post-tests, questionnaires, classroom observations, and student reflections. Thematic and statistical analyses revealed significant improvements in students’ understanding, awareness, and enactment of religious moderation values, with average cognitive scores increasing from 55 to 81.5 and behavioural awareness from 48.75 to 78.25. These findings suggest that integrating the Iceberg Analysis and U-Process facilitates cognitive development and deep emotional and ethical internalisation of interfaith values. The study contributes to religious education by proposing a culturally contextualised and empirically validated model that bridges conceptual understanding and real-world practice. Its originality lies in synthesising two transformative learning approaches into a unified pedagogical strategy tailored for pluralistic and multicultural settings, with practical implications for curriculum design, teacher training, and interfaith peacebuilding.

Abstract

This study explores how African Christians in Germany navigate the tension between maintaining their confessional identity and engaging in increasingly pluralistic and secular societies. Recognising the pastoral and theological challenges posed by epistemological relativism and interreligious equality, the research introduces the Christomatric Model as a relational framework for Christian missions. Employing a qualitative methodology with a reflective-hermeneutic approach, data were collected through informal conversations, participant observation, and written reflections within the African Catholic Community in Mannheim. Thematic analysis revealed that believers frequently moderate their expressions of faith—avoiding exclusivist language, concealing religious symbols, and adopting neutral terminology—due to fear of rejection or social stigmatisation. These findings underscore Christians' internal and external pressures in pluralistic settings and highlight the need for alternative pastoral strategies. The Christomatric Model responds by reframing Christian witness as relational accompaniment rather than doctrinal confrontation, offering a theologically grounded and contextually sensitive approach that upholds faith integrity while fostering interfaith respect. This study contributes original insights into contextual missiology by shifting the mission's focus from conversion to presence and by providing a concrete theological response to the lived experiences of believers in pluralistic societies. Its originality lies in articulating a mediatory paradigm that integrates doctrinal fidelity with relational openness, filling a significant gap in current theological and pastoral discourse.
