And Behavior

Along with the fast flow of change and the strong acculturation process of Palembang Malay Muslim community, Malay culture is like a ship that sails in the middle of a storm. This is based on the fact that our development places too much emphasis on material aspects that have given birth to an imbalance in the behavior patterns of the Palembang Malay Muslim community, which has increasingly been eroded by economic globalization. Excessive material competition has produced anomicous societies. The embodiment of the way the Palembang Malays behave is also reflected in their work ethic which can be roughly seen from the social structure and norms of the community. The purpose of this study is to determine the extent to which the global economy has the potential to obscure the Malay identity and the pure Muslim identity. The qualitative approach was chosen using the method of field research carried out in an effort to understand the symptoms in such a way as a phenomenon that is not external expressed through their views. The results of this study found the fact that enthusiasm and work ethic were actually not reflected in most Palembang Malay Muslim communities. Malay and Islamic relations actually obscure the role and competitiveness of the community in the practice of social relations and in earning a living. Religion is still considered as an element of local culture which is concentrated in the form of traditional customary behavior, not as a foothold, direction and way of life. Indeed religion serves to encourage humans to get involved in economic roles and behavior, because religion can reduce anxiety and fear not too found in this study. Where the aftereffect of this condition arises a generation that is deprived of values, a generation that is fragile from the spiritual aspect, easily influenced, not easily cared for and loses its cultural footing.

This paper explored a daily fiqh practice or, more precisely, the practice of Islam among Muslim minorities in Bali, which is transformed into an adaptable form of religious diversity promoting harmony. In the midst of the strong domination of Hindu custom and the acts of violence by few Muslims in Indonesia, the Balinese Muslim community strived to manifest Islamic teachings (fiqh) in daily life having tolerant and moderate. Through two problems such as; how is the religious adaptation pattern of minority Muslim communities in Bali? How do Muslim communities establish inter-religious harmony as a manifestation of their daily fiqh? This study attempted  to analyze it based on maqashid sharia theory. As for supporting data collection, this paper used field research using interviews and observations.The finding  indicated that there were interesting patterns of religious social relations occurred in the daily practice of Muslim minorities in expressing their Islamic teachings in the public area. Muslims in Bali are able to appraise their religious teachings and adapt with the surrounding community, which was socio-anthropologically dominated by the Hindu belief system.

Within the prevailing post-9/11 climate, veiled Muslim women are commonly portrayed as oppressed, ‘culturally dangerous’ and ‘threatening’ to the western way of life and to notions of public safety and security by virtue of being fully covered in the public sphere. It is in such a context that manifestations of Islamophobia often emerge as a means of responding to these ‘threats’. Drawing from qualitative data elicited through a UK-based study, this article reflects upon the lived experiences of veiled Muslim women as actual and potential victims of Islamophobia and examines the impacts of Islamophobic attacks upon victims, their families and wider Muslim communities. Among the central themes we explore are impacts upon their sense of vulnerability, the visibility of their Muslim identity, and the management of their safety in public. The individual and collective harms associated with this form of victimisation are considered through notions of a worldwide, transnational Muslim community, the ummah, which connects Muslims from all over world. We conclude by noting that the effects of this victimisation are not exclusively restricted to the global ummah; rather, the harm extends to society as a whole by exacerbating the polarisation which already exists between ‘us’ and ‘them’.

Participation of the Muslim community in the celebration of the Panghuni Uthiram Ritual (case study in Banda Aceh). In 2014, to be precise on Sunday, April 20 2014, the Hindus of Banda Aceh celebrated a religious ritual called Maha Puja Panghuni Uthiram Triruvila at the Palani Andawer Temple, Gampong Keudah, Kuta Raja District, Banda Aceh City. The religious procession received widespread attention from the majority Muslim Banda Acehnese, so they came in droves to witness the ritual up close. The formulation of the problem is to find out how the form and level of participation of the Muslim community in Banda Aceh City in the celebration of the Panghuni Uthiram Ritual and what are the factors that encourage and prevent the Muslim community in Banda Aceh from participating in the celebration of the Panghuni Uthiram Ritual. To answer the problems that arise and the achievement of objectives, this research is a field study (Field Research), the method used in the preparation of this thesis uses qualitative and descriptive methods and for data collection is done by interviewing several respondents who are in accordance with the discussion, observation, and documentation. . Judging by the current phenomenon, both Muslim and non-Muslim communities in Gampong Keudah have been able to form a good participation in the celebration of the Panghuni Uthiram Ritual in Hinduism. The form of participation that occurs in Gampong Keudah is in the form of personnel participation. This happens because energy is considered the easiest and most effective form of participation. The participation of energy also prevents the Muslim community from directly interacting with the Panghuni Uthiram ritual celebration activities.

Indonesia sebagai negara yang majemuk memiliki beragam suku, bahasa, ras bahkan agama. Perbedaan itu menyimpan potensi positif sebagai kekuatan dan kekayaan bangsa. Namun demikian seandainya tidak dirawat dengan baik, potensi positif tersebut berubah menjadi negatif, yaitu konflik yang merugikan masing-masing pihak. Usaha untuk merawat kemajemukan tersebut adalah menumbuhkembangkan toleransi. Masyarakat Sodong sebagai kumpulan 2 (dua) komunitas beragama berbeda memberikan potret bahwa mereka telah mengimplementasikan hal tersebut secara intens dalam aspek sosial, ekonomi, politik dan bahkan persoalan agama. Hal ini tentu menimbulkan pertanyaan, bagaimana bisa penganut agama yang berbeda memahami dan mengejawantahkan toleransi yang begitu besar dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, padahal setiap agama secara lazim mempunyai ciri khas dan batasan-batasan hubungan dengan agama lainnya?, terkecuali daripada itu, bagaimana pandangan islam  terhadap kenyataan tersebut, karena  nyatanya islam sebagai agama pedoman hidup muslim memiliki pandangan sendiri kaitannya dengan toleransi. Penelitian ini bercorak field research dengan mendeskriptifkan terhadap persepsi dan perilaku masyarakat Sodong terhadap toleransi berikut pandangan islam terhadapnya. Hasil penelitian mengungkapkan bahwa toleransi agama yang terbangun di sana tidak semata-mata berlatar belakang agama, melainkan juga berasal dari aspek sosial, budaya dan politik. Praktik-praktik toleransi yang telah terjadi perlu penguatan, terutama di bidang sosial kemasyarakatan. Adapun pada persoalan yang bersinggungan dengan agama masih membutuhkan perhatian dan peran edukasi pemuka  muslim agar toleransi tidak mengarah pada tindakan sinkretisme.Kata Kunci:Sodong, toleransi beragama. Indonesia as a pluralistic country has various ethnicities, languages, races and even religions. The difference holds positive potential as the strength and wealth of the nation. However, if it is not properly cared for, the positive potential turns into a negative one, namely a conflict that harms each party. Efforts to maintain this plurality is to cultivate tolerance. The Sodong community as a collection of 2 (two) different religious communities provides a portrait that they have implemented this intensely in social, economic, political and even religious aspects. This of course raises the question, how can adherents of different religions understand and manifest such great tolerance in daily life, even though every religion in general has characteristics and limitations on relations with other religions? to this fact, because in fact Islam as a religion as a way of life for Muslims has its own views regarding tolerance. This research is a field research by describing the perception and behavior of the Sodong community towards tolerance and the Islamic view of it. The results of the study reveal that the religious tolerance that is built there is not solely a religious background, but also comes from social, cultural and political aspects. Tolerance practices that have occurred need to be strengthened, especially in the social field. As for issues that intersect with religion, it still requires attention and the educational role of Muslim leaders so that tolerance does not lead to acts of syncretism. Keywords:Sodong, religious tolerance.

Muslim Communities

South African Islam has always been associated with the Cape Malay and Indian communities throughout the twentieth century. As a consequence, Islam as a religious tradition was seldom associated with other ethnic groups. Toward the end of apartheid and during the era of democracy there has been tangible evidence of its growth among African ethnic communities. This essay, which looks at this phenomenon from roughly 1961-2001, reflects upon South African Muslims’ demographics with special focus on the African Muslim communities and analyzes the position of African Muslims alongside their coreligionists by concentrating on randomly selected case studies. I seek to demonstrate how certain representatives from the selected communities, via internal developments and external influences, have had significant input in terms of changing the face of Islam in southern Africa. The essay is prefaced by a theoretical frame designed to assist in understanding the development of an African Muslim identity and the emergence of an African Muslim community.

The purpose of this research is to describe the spirituality of rural Muslim communities through the routine activities of Jam’iyyah Nahdlatul Ulama from Ngemplak Simongan NU Sub-District. This research is a field research (qualitative) which elaborated phenomenology approach that uses observation, interviews, and documentation as a method of collecting data, which is also equipped with a library research. The research shows that the spirituality of the Muslim community and the Jam’iyyah NU, Ngemplak Simongan Village is also still very much carrying the spirit of local wisdom based on Islamic values to this day. They also still carry out Javanese religious rituals, such as routine recitation activities, tahlil, yasinan, diba’, istighāstah, manāqib, and ziyārah Walisongo, because they believe that basically all of these rituals are part of Islamic teachings and originated from Islamic teachings. Jam’iyyah NU Ngemplak Simongan can also be categorized as “Moderate Muslim” because they still uphold the values of locality in religion. Based on the results, it shows that Jam’iyyah NU, Ngemplak can be used as a miniature of NU moderation in suburban villages of Semarang City. Jam’iyyah NU, Ngemplak, which in fact is a sub-district in the metropolitan city of Semarang, Central Java, they often and routinely carry out Ahlussunnah wal Jama’ah An-Nahdliyyah (Aswaja NU) activities to maintain the spiritual spirit of rural Muslim communities.

Kudi Khao or Bang Luang Community is one of the oldest Thai-Muslim communities in Bangkok. Its history can be traced back to the time of the late Ayudhaya Dynasty. Some Thai Muslims migrated to the south of the Chao Phraya River. After the subsequent capital, Thonburi, was established, some had settled along the river near the capital where their descendants have resided until the present time. This Thai-Muslim community is located among diverse neighboring communities which today boast the motto of “One sub-district2, three religions.” Kudi Khao’s unique blend of cultural identity illustrates an integration of cultural pluralism in the diverse ethnic environment of Thailand as seen through the physical features of the religious center, Kudi Khao, an Islamic mosque built in Thai architectural style and the people’s way of life intertwining Thai influence.

The purpose of the article is to demonstrate that the civil spheres of Latin America remain in force, even when under threat, and to expand the method of theorizing democracy, understanding it not only as a state form, but also as a way of life. Moreover, the task of the authors goes beyond the purely application of the theory of the civil sphere in order to emphasize the relevance not only in practice, but also in the theory of democratic culture and institutions of Latin America. This task requires decolonizing the arrogant attitude of North theorists towards democratic processes outside the United States and Europe. The peculiarities of civil spheres in Latin America are emphasized. It is argued that over the course of the nineteenth century the non-civil institutions and value spheres that surrounded civil spheres deeply compromised them. The problems of development that pockmarked Latin America — lagging economies, racial and ethnic and class stratification, religious strife — were invariably filtered through the cultural aspirations and institutional patterns of civil spheres. The appeal of the theory of the civil sphere to the experience of Latin America reveals the ambitious nature of civil society and democracy on new and stronger foundations. Civil spheres had extended significantly as citizens confronted uncomfortable facts, collectively searched for solutions, and envisioned new courses of collective action. However when populism and authoritarianism advance, civil understandings of legitimacy come under pressure from alternative, anti-democratic conceptions of motives, social relations, and political institutions. In these times, a fine-grained understanding of the competitive dynamics between civil, non-civil, and anti-civil becomes particularly critical. Such a vision is constructively applied not only to the realities of Latin America, but also in a wider global context. The authors argue that in order to understand the realities and the limits of populism and polarization, civil sphere scholars need to dive straight into the everyday life of civil communities, setting the civil sphere theory (CST) in a more ethnographic, “anthropological” mode.
