The difference in qiblah direction found among the congregation of the Nagari Suayan Mosque in Lima Puluh Kota Regency of West Sumatera began as there was an initiative to remeasure the qiblah direction by a caretaker and imam of the mosque. The difference had turned into a conflict between the Straight Qiblah congregation and the Skewed Qiblah congregation due to the lack of communication and dissemination regarding the change in qiblah direction. While in fact, facing the direction of qiblah during salat is a belief that both groups distinctly hold. This article explains the various contexts that underlie the difference and the idea of intragroup tolerance, which is the most significant finding in this study. Intragroup tolerance in practicing religion refers to the ability or willingness to tolerate differences in the rituals/practices found among varying congregations of the same religion. The research indicates that tolerating differences is part of a journey toward peace between two differing parties, and it may have implication on developing the definition of tolerance.
西苏门答腊岛Lima Puluh Kota摄政区Nagari Suayan清真寺会众中发现的qiblah方向的差异始于该清真寺的一名看守和伊玛目主动重新测量qiblah的方向。由于缺乏关于奇布拉方向变化的沟通和传播，这种差异已经演变成了直奇布拉会众和斜奇布拉会众之间的冲突。而事实上，在萨拉特期间面对奇布拉的方向是两个群体明显持有的信念。本文解释了造成差异的各种背景以及群体内容忍的概念，这是本研究中最重要的发现。宗教实践中的群体内容忍是指容忍同一宗教的不同会众在仪式/实践中存在差异的能力或意愿。研究表明，容忍分歧是两个不同政党之间走向和平之旅的一部分，这可能对发展宽容的定义有影响。

One of the main objectives of the tafsīr (Quranic interpretation) is to explain its Quranic contents to readers. In fact, tafsīr also demonstrates an interaction between writers of tafsīr and their socio-context where they lives. In Sundanese region, Moh. E. Hasim also criticised the New Order’s policies when he wrote his tafsīr called Ayat Suci Lenyepaneun . What are his critiques? How did he make critiques when at the same time he was writing the tafsīr ? How was his critique’s position among socio-discourses that appeared in the Muslim world? Through the discourse-analysis approach, this study argues that Hasim’s comments on the New Order’s policies in his Lenyepaneun tafsīr demonstrate a dialectical process of the interpreter (writer) with the socio-political context, which he faced. The texts’ critiques of Hasim to the issue of gambling (Porkas and SDSB) and banning of veil demonstrated Hasim’s challenge to the government’s hegemony, which was very repressive. Hasim has successfully combined varieties of ‘horizons’, one being himself as a writer, the socio-political horizon and the horizon of the readers. Hasim’s tafsīr has not only displayed the socio-political situation of the society at that time but also became his tool to deliver his critiques.

Indonesia is a rising center of K-pop fandom next to China and Japan. This study examines K-pop fandom in Indonesia by focusing on intercultural communication between two countries whose cultural and religious differences are extensive. An ethnographic study of young Muslims in Indonesia was conducted in order to examine the motivations and cultural practice of K-pop fans. Having the largest Muslim population in the world, Indonesia has young people who both practice religious piety sincerely, and enjoy Korean popular music passionately. Although these interests appear to be contradictory, the historical and social context of Indonesian Islam provides a clue about how they accept cultural diversity. K-pop fandom implies multiple meaning. Long term study of this ethnography using in-depth interviews and participatory observation is an attempt to find the inner meaning of K-pop fandom in Indonesia seemingly contradicting from religious piety that most young Indonesians maintain now. Cultural tastes of young Muslims imply social consciousness and vision of new cultural identity that they wish to promote. This case may enlighten a new alternative to the radicalization of Islam and an example of intercultural cooperation in global communication.

The blasphemy case of Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, known as Ahok, who is a Christian and was Jakarta’s non-Muslim governor, has sparked different reactions among Muslim groups in Indonesia. Reactions of Muslim groups of different persuasion in East Java will be highlighted in this article. Two theological constructions emerged out of this case, namely textual-normative and moderate-substantive constructions. This article aims to identify theological construction and social actions as normative propositions and actions of Muslim groups in East Java. To comprehend the concepts and responses through the article, several leaders of the Muslim roups such as FPI (Front Pembela Islam), HTI (Hizb al-Tahrir Indonesia), FUI (Forum Umat Islam), MMI (Majlis Mujahidin Indonesia), Al-Irsyad, FS-LDK (Forum Studi Lembaga Dakwah Kampus), NU (Nahdlatul Ulama) and Muhammadiyah were interviewed. The article finds that moderate and rational theological concept of blasphemy is coined by major Muslim groups especially NU and Muhammadiyah which prioritize greater national interest, whereas other Muslim roups, especially those with literal interpretation, promote political identity vis-a-vis other religious groups.
巴苏基(Basuki Tjahaja Purnama)被称为阿学(Ahok)，他是一名基督徒，也是雅加达的非穆斯林省长。他的亵渎案在印尼的穆斯林团体中引发了不同的反应。本文将重点介绍东爪哇不同信仰的穆斯林团体的反应。在这种情况下，出现了两种神学结构，即文本规范结构和适度实体结构。本文旨在将神学建构和社会行动作为东爪哇穆斯林群体的规范性命题和行动。为了理解这篇文章的概念和回应，我们采访了一些穆斯林团体的领导人，如FPI (Front Pembela Islam)、HTI (Hizb al-Tahrir Indonesia)、FUI (Forum Umat Islam)、MMI (Majlis Mujahidin Indonesia)、Al-Irsyad、FS-LDK (Forum Studi Lembaga Dakwah Kampus)、NU (Nahdlatul Ulama)和Muhammadiyah。文章发现，温和和理性的亵渎神学概念是由主要的穆斯林团体创造的，尤其是NU和Muhammadiyah，他们优先考虑更大的国家利益，而其他穆斯林团体，特别是那些有字面解释的穆斯林团体，则促进了相对于其他宗教团体的政治认同。

In this article, we discuss the function and position of penghulu in Java in the second decade of the nineteenth century. The object of this study is a manuscript from the British Library collection, coded Mss Eur D/742.1, ff. 155-166, that was issued by Thomas Stamford Raffles, the Lieutenant-Governor of Java, and Its Dependencies, on 11 February 1814. The manuscript actually regulates the general justice system. However, in this article, we will only discuss a number of rules that are directly related to the function and position of penghulu in the justice system. The paper will show that penghulu , in Raffles’ regulation, was functioned as an expert to be presented to a court. He must expound about Islamic law or customary law related to cases that were being handled by the court. In fact, when it was first formed in the early days of the Demak Sultanate (1475-1554), the penghulu was a representative of the sultan and is held responsible for the implementation of the rules of Islam. Meanwhile, in the field of law, the penghulu was head of the court.

The issue on halal currently becomes a global trend. As a matter of fact, it has also become the lifestyle of Muslims around the world including Indonesia, a country with the largest Muslim population. One interesting phenomenon in Indonesia in relation to the halal industry is Wardah Cosmetics. This brand can be called as the pioneer of halal cosmetics in Indonesia. It promotes itself with three taglines; pure and safe, beauty expert, and inspiring beauty. Unfortunately, Wardah has not yet achieved its optimal potential as there are still negative responses towards the quality of Wardah products. In addition, the distribution of Wardah products are still segmented in urban areas only. Despite the fact, Wardah still is a good showcase of the success of halal industry particularly the cosmetics industry as it succeed to position itself as one the leading brands in Indonesia. This paper finds that the strategy and mechanisms of the halal industry run by wardah cosmetics have been closely connected to the purchase intention of the Indonesia Muslims.

The issue of local traditions and their position in Islamic law frequently still sparks disputes, tensions, and conflicts among Muslims in Lombok. Large number of Muslims willingly practice such traditions in their life, such as celebrating Islamic historical events such as mauli d al-nabi (the prophet birthday) , isra mi‘raj, and collective zikr while the others fiercely abhor them. For example. This article aims at delve on such issues to trace the intellectual roots of such difference, and to find further explanation in the view of Islamic legal theory. By qualitative analysis in normative, and sociological perspective, this research finds that the real thoughts of the early pious generation ( salaf al-s alih) are generally not as rigid as imagined, as claimed by many people. Finally, this research also finds, and constructs eight gates for accommodation of various recent cultural innovations, and local traditions, with specil reference in Lombok, into the construction of Islamic legal theory with certain conditions.
当地传统及其在伊斯兰法律中的地位问题仍然经常引发龙目岛穆斯林之间的争端、紧张和冲突。许多穆斯林愿意在他们的生活中实践这些传统，例如庆祝伊斯兰历史事件，如mauli d al-nabi(先知的生日)，isra mi 'raj和集体zikr，而其他人则非常厌恶这些传统。为例。本文旨在对这些问题进行深入的探讨，追溯这种差异的思想根源，并从伊斯兰法律理论的角度寻求进一步的解释。通过从规范和社会学的角度进行定性分析，本研究发现，早期虔诚一代(salaf al-s alih)的真实思想通常并不像许多人所声称的那样僵化。最后，本研究以龙目岛为例，在一定条件下发现并构建了容纳各种近期文化创新和地方传统的八扇门，以适应伊斯兰法律理论的建构。

One result of the interplay between Islamic da’wa, popular culture, and employment of information technology in Indonesian community is the emergence hijrah movement. The term hijrah in Indonesia is employed to denote term tawbah among contemporary young Muslims. This term is well-known among Muslim artists in several countries who declare themselves to have migrate from bad living (decadent) in the past to good ones (Islamic) in present. In 2018, these youths held a three-day festival of Hijrah in Jakarta to display commitment and dedication in their hijrah. Seventeen Muslim well-known Indonesian clerics and thousands of youths of hijrah attended the festival. This article discusses this new religious phenomenon of hijrah as it is reflected in the festival as well as analyzes the quotations of the Holy Quran used by leading figures in this festival by comparing it to Quranic exegesis of past Muslim scholars. From the study, it can be concluded that the festival strengthens the reach of hijrah movement among Muslim youths in the city. This is achieved through the employment of some Quranic verses related to hijrah in this festival.

The article scrutinizes the role and action of a number of Muslim organizations established by some prominent kiai s in Pamekasan Madura, namely Badan Silaturrahmi Ulama Pesantren Madura (BASSRA/The Board of Madurese Pesantren Ulama), Aliansi Ulama Madura (AUMA/The Alliance of Madurese Ulama), and Forum Kiai Muda (FKM/The Forum of Young Kiai s). These organizations, on the basis of their religious thoughts and movements, have been able to massively mobilize and organize their followers while at the same time create a multi-layered sectarianism. The sectarianism promulgated by these organizations seems to disrespectfully neglect interreligious and interethnic relations which rest within heterogeneous reality of the Madurese society. Consequently, the domination of the religious elites seems to “lock” the freedom of thought in religion. This article argues that Islamism in Pamekasan—as a variant of Islam in response to the global phenomena on religious fundamentalism—has uniquely focused on what so-called “nationalization of Islam”. It implies that the Islamist groups in Pamekasan attempt to mobilize their followers, on behalf of Islam, in order to not only establish an Islamic state but also to renovate Indonesia.

It implies that the Islamist groups in Pamekasan attempt to mobilize their followers, on behalf of Islam, in order to not only establish an Islamic state but also to renovate Indonesia.","PeriodicalId":53455,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Indonesian Islam","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44575846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper examines Sukarno's thought on the importance of integrating religion and science within Pesantren education. He believes that there should be no separation and dichotomy between religious science and the so called general science as they complement each other. Sukarno's view on this matter was influenced by several things among them is his concern that Pesantren, as an Islamic educational institution, should be an avant garde in promoting the integration between those sciences. In addition, Sukarno also has concern about the condition of the Pesantren at the time; the early twentieth century that, in his opinion, tend to be old fashioned and focuses merely on religious education.
