Typology of preachers in digital da'wah on social media in Indonesia
The phenomenon of islamic preachers (da'i) emerging on social media reflects the diversity of da’wah styles and approaches, yet studies on the typology of digital preachers remain limited. This study aims to identify and classify the typology of da'i on social media based on da’wah content, media used, and audience segmentation. Using a qualitative descriptive method, this research employs content analysis of selected da'i's accounts across various social media platforms. The findings reveal three typological dimensions: 1) based on content, da'i are classified as textual or contextual; 2) based on media, as conventional or modern-digital; and 3) based on audience, as general or segmented. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of digital da’wah dynamics and provides a practical framework for researchers and practitioners to develop more relevant and effective da’wah strategies in the social media era
Eloping Women’s Dignity in the Novels Nawi Cinta Inah and Mangalua: A Multicultural Feminism Study
This article examines the dignity of women in the Indonesian tradition of elopement—melayoken (Using/Osing) and mangalua (Batak Toba)—as represented in two novels: Nawi Cinta Inah, written by Antariksawan Jusuf and Hani Z Noor, and Mangalua by Idris Pasaribu. Using multicultural feminism, this study reads the text as a cultural artifact shaped by—and simultaneously shaping—local social structures. Methodologically, close reading is combined with hermeneutic procedures and triangulated with ethnographic findings on Using and Batak customs. Mohanty's critique of feminist universalism highlights contextualized everyday practices of resistance; Narayan's notion of “tradition as negotiation” and warnings against “death by culture” guide an empathetic reading of agency within the customary framework. The findings demonstrate that elopement is not reduced to oppression or absolute freedom; it functions as an arena of negotiation where women articulate choice and responsibility, then seek legitimacy through customary reconciliation (colok/Using; uhum/Batak). This study contributes a culturally sensitive feminist reading of Indonesian literature and suggests an expansion of comparative studies to other Nusantara traditions as well as studies of reader reception
Fragmented Legal Protection in Child Marriage Prevention: Intersections of State Law, Religious Norms, and Local Values in East Java
This article aims to explore the ambiguity in the implementation of policies to prevent child marriage in East Java. Although Law No. 16 of 2019 has raised the minimum age for marriage, the number of requests for marriage dispensations remains high. This legal research uses a socio-legal approach and normative-empirical analysis of the discourse on preventing child marriage in East Java. Using Clifford Geertz's broker-culture theory, this study captures how religious elites and local figures act as cultural brokers who bridge and transform the meaning of national legal norms into the value framework of local communities. Boaventura de Sousa Santos' theory of interlegality helps map the overlap between state law, religious law, and customary norms that form a hybrid legal structure in the practice of granting marriage dispensations. This study finds that the misalignment between national law, local norms, and socio-religious authorities has led to fragmented legal protection for children. This situation is exacerbated by the absence of effective binding local regulations and the state's weak capacity to intervene in religious discourse and social practices surrounding child marriage. This study contributes to an inclusive-collaborative approach to preventing child marriage through a framework of legal glocalisation, namely: proactive policies, integrated empowerment, and equal multi-stakeholder synergy, including local governments, the Ministry of Religious Affairs, health workers, peer counsellors, families, civil society, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI), and religious leaders
Productive Waqf Management and Socio Entrepreneurship: The Role of Mosque Based Family Waqf in Indonesia
Purpose: This study examines a new model of family waqf asset management involving nadzir and wakif as socio-preneurs at the Sabilillah Mosque in Malang Indonesia. Until now, the problem of potential waqf land has been unable to be developed productively. Expert waqf land is also not managed due to traditional reasons.
Method: This study offers a solution by using a qualitative case study approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews and document analysis involving mosque administrators (nazhir), wakif families, and beneficiaries.
Results: The findings show that the family waqf management model by the nadzir effectively combines religious motivation with the principles of social entrepreneurship—emphasizing trusst, collaboration, and the creation of shared value rather than profit maximization.
Implications: These research findings provide a new concept for managing productive waqf for the family micro-sector, particularly utilizing family land waqf to be productive through cooperation between the nadzir and wakif.
Originality: This study identifies a new conceptual framework in which family waqf also benefits from waqf management to achieve family economic resilience. This model increases family income, strengthens social solidarity, and positions mosques as catalysts for social economy rather than merely religious institutions
NAMING SYSTEMS AND CLAN SURNAMES AMONG THE HADHRAMI ARAB COMMUNITY IN PASAR KLIWON, SURAKARTA: AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL LINGUISTICS STUDY: NIẒĀM AL-TASMIYAH WA ASMĀ’ AL-ALQĀB LADĀ AL-‘ARAB AL-ḤAḌRAMIYYĪN FĪ BĀSĀR KLIWUN SŪRAKARTĀ: DIRĀSAH LISĀNIYYAH ANTRŪBŪLŪJIYYAH
Clan surnames are linguistic forms produced through long cultural processes. This study examines clan surnames of the Hadhrami Arab community in Pasar Kliwon, Surakarta, using a morphemic approach. The analysis categorizes clan surnames based on the number of constituent elements and patterns of morphological formation (wazn). In addition, this study investigates the clan naming system, focusing on naming practices and degrees of semantic opacity. Data were collected using elicitation-based interviews with community informants. The analysis employed distributional analysis through immediate constituent segmentation and referential analysis to identify linguistic patterns and their determining factors. The findings show that Hadhrami clan surnames display systematic morphological patterns that reflect both Arabic linguistic traditions and the cultural framework of the community. Understanding these clan surnames provides important insights into the cultural patterns of the Hadhrami Arab descendants in Pasar Kliwon, Surakarta
Reframing the Role of the State in Religious Moderation: A Thematic Qur’anic Interpretation
The Thematic Interpretation of Religious Moderation (TTMA) published by the Indonesian Ministry of Religious Affairs in 2022 represents a significant shift in the discourse of religious moderation by explicitly integrating state-related concepts into Qur’anic interpretation. Unlike previous studies that predominantly frame moderation through ethical-religious principles such as wasathiyyah, ‘adl, and tasāmuh, TTMA reformulates moderation by incorporating state-oriented terms (ulū al-amr, balad, sha‘b, qawm), thereby constructing a distinctive state–religion synergy. This study addresses two central questions: (1) how are state principles articulated in TTMA’s interpretation of selected Qur’anic verses and (2) what conceptual model of the state’s role in religious moderation is proposed. Employing qualitative library research, his study analyzes TTMA’s Qur’anic interpretations using Talal Asad’s framework of discursive tradition and power to situate them within their socio-historical and political contex. The findings reveal three core state principles embedded in TTMA: national commitment, internalization of the state’s mediating role, and critical religious reasoning toward state authority. These principles collectively construct a moderation paradigm that emphasizes dialogical cooperation between religion and the state. This study contributes a novel perspective by showing that TTMA advances a moderate-humanist discourse positioning the state as an enabling actor in fostering religious harmony
Maqashid Analysis of the Phenomenon of Sufi Dance Practices as an Effort to Build Holistic Health on Practitioner in Kartasura
This study aims to describe and analyze the construction of holistic health in Sufi dance, which is considered a human effort to preserve the soul. Holistic health, in anthropology, is a social phenomenon associated with the terminology of illness. Anthropology observes various practices related to how society responds to illness and how to overcome it. Sufi dance is known as a model of healing modified from human-produced art. This study used in-depth interviews and observation as data collection techniques. Through a symbolic analysis typical of anthropology, it was concluded that Sufi dance can function as therapy to build holistic health. There is a close connection between medicine, magic, and religion. Sufi dance is believed to have a health-promoting effect on the performers when they are in a trance state. The Sufi healing process occurs through the stages of bidayah (initiative), namely takhalli, tahalli, and tajalli. In Islamic culture, Sufi dance practices are part of human efforts to implement the maqasid sharia through self-care, which they carry out in Sufi dance practices as Sufi healing. These practices resulted from cultural developments that did not originate from the framework of modern medicine but rather from the framework of classical medicine in the past
The Power of Isti'ārah Metaphors in Contemporary Arabic Poetry al-Nahru al-‘Āshiq by Nāzik al-Malā’ikah
The metaphor of isti'ārah in contemporary Arabic poetry, such as in al-Nahru al-‘Āshiq written by Nāzik al-Malā’ikah, offers aesthetic depth and profound social critique. This research aims to analyze the power of isti'ārah as a means of expression in depicting social and emotional realities. Using an analytical descriptive qualitative method, this study explores the form and function of isti'arah in this poem. The main findings show the dominance of isti'ārah murosyahah, which constructs complexities of meaning and aesthetics that go beyond literal likeness. Metaphors also play an important role in bridging the individual and collective experiences of the reader. This research contributes to the enrichment of balāghah studies by bridging traditional Arabic approaches with modern metaphor theory, offering new insights for contemporary Arabic literary studies on a global level
Food, Faith, and Sustainability: Islamic Ethical Foundations for a Just and Ecological Future
This paper examines Islamic food ethics as a holistic framework for addressing contemporary challenges of social justice, ecological sustainability, and interreligious harmony. Moving beyond a narrow understanding of halal as ritual permissibility, the study proposes an Ethical Halal model that integrates four interrelated principles: halal compliance, animal welfare, ecological sustainability (al-istidāmah), and social equity. Drawing on Qur’anic concepts of ṭayyib (pure and wholesome consumption), Prophetic teachings on moderation (wasatiyyah) and stewardship (khilāfah), and relevant contemporary scholarship, the article highlights the moral and transformative dimensions of Islamic dietary ethics.The analysis emphasizes three key themes. First, animal welfare, grounded in the Qur’anic recognition of animals as moral communities deserving compassionate treatment. Second, sustainability, articulated through prohibitions against waste (isrāf) and the promotion of environmental responsibility as a form of ongoing charity. Third, food-based charity, including zakāt and ṣadaqah, which functions to reduce inequality, alleviate hunger, and foster social and interfaith solidarity. Overall, the study demonstrates that food in Islam constitutes a site of worship, ethical responsibility, and ecological care. The Ethical Halal framework offers practical insights for policymakers, educators, and community leaders seeking sustainable and inclusive approaches to food ethics in a globalized world
Beyond Identity Boundaries: Interethnic and Interfaith Marriages in Indonesia
Drawing exclusively on secondary data from publicly available national surveys and institutional reports, including the Indonesia Demographic and Health Surveys (IDHS), which cover approximately 50,000 scientifically selected households across all provinces, this study analyzes national patterns of interethnic and interfaith marriages and their broader social implications. Data from the Central Bureau of Statistics show that interethnic marriages account for 89.3 percent of marriages, while data from the Indonesian Conference on Religion and Peace (ICRP) indicate a monthly increase of 12–15 interfaith marriage cases. These findings demonstrate a consistent growth of interethnic and interfaith marriages across regions, with Java and Bali showing particularly notable increases, especially among Muslim–Christian–Catholic unions. The rise in interethnic marriages is closely associated with urbanization, higher educational attainment, and intensified cross-ethnic interaction, while the growth of interfaith marriages reflects expanding religious diversity and shifting social norms. This study argues that interethnic and interfaith marriages function as a form of social integration that challenges rigid identity boundaries and reinforces Indonesian nationalism grounded in diversity. From a socio-legal and human rights perspective, the findings highlight the urgency of systematic state recognition and registration of interfaith marriages to ensure equal legal protection and to prevent institutional discrimination against citizens
