In December 1992, Israel deported hundreds of Hamas activists to Lebanon. The deportees ensconced themselves at a camp near the village of Marj al-Zuhur, close to the Israeli border. Their sojourn there bolstered Hamas and became a milestone in its development. This article shows how the deportees' success in running the camp as an exemplary Islamic society turned the deportation into a foundational myth for the movement, one centered on nonviolent resistance in the spirit of Islamic values.

Islamic Society in Practice is written in a new tradition of Westernscholarship on Islam that seeks to represent an alternative view to that ofOrientalism. The author sets out to analyze Islam as lived and practiced ineveryday life, and brings out the human dimension of a region and a religioustradition that largely have been stereotyped in the West. Withoutadvocating conversion or the blurring of differences, she argues thatapproaching Islamic and Arab cultures on their own terms and recognizingtheir strengths and weaknesses will produce the crosscultural understandingnecessary for world peace in the twenty-first century.The book, the result of more than two decades of research and over fiveyears of residence in Khartoum, Cairo, and Tunis, covers a wide range ofsubjects. Among these are the five pillars of Islam, Islamic values andsocial practice, family and gender relations, the ongoing debate on thereform of family law, Islamic identities in a changing world, and the sociopoliticaldimensions of contemporary Islamic movements.The author's study of Islam and her residence among and closeinteraction with Muslims accorded her considerable access to Islamicculture and enabled her to debunk tenured stereotypes. She gives a veryintimate picture of the ethos of Muslim societies and pays special attentionto the structure of the extended Muslim family and the status ofwomen in Islamic societies. In a bid to explode the myth of theoppressed Muslim woman, she goes beyond facile observations to lookat the deeper social and ethical logic that informs apparent genderbaseddiscrepancies in Islamic laws and practices. She also documentsfacts about the strides that Muslim women have been making that nevermake it to the headlines: For instance, many major universities in theMiddle East, such as Cairo University, have about 50 percent femalestudents, and until recently, there was a greater proportion of femalemedical doctors and engineers in Arab Muslim societies than in theWest ...

Setrek adalah jenis kesenian tradisional terbangan atau slawatan yang berfungsi sebagai media dakwah agamaIslam. Sebagai jenis kesenian tradisional slawatan, perpaduan unsur-unsur estetis seni yang bernafaskan Islamdengan unsur-unsur estetis kesenian rakyat tradisional merupakan akulturasi budaya yang mencerminkan bentukkreativitas lokal. Pengaruh seni Islam tidak dimaksudkan untuk merubah wujud keseluruhan koreografi nya, tetapilebih merupakan formalitas nilai Islam dalam wajah kesenian tradisional untuk tujuan dakwah. Oleh karena itubentuk penyajiannya tetap dalam format tradisi dengan sedikit sentuhan nafas Islam. Misalnya penyajian gerak tarihampir tidak dijumpai nafas Islam kecuali gerak takbiratul ihram Allohu Akbar, tokoh Kyai Ba’in yang merupakanrefresentasi seorang ulama dengan tata busana khas Islam, iringan diberi nafas Islam dengan syair-syair kitab AlBarjanzi dilengkapi instrumen terbang dan jidor mewakili musik Islam. Nafas Islam sebenarnya lebih merupakanlegalitas spirit Islam dalam kesenian setrek dengan harapan semua pemain dan penonton dapat mengamalkan agamaIslam dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Oleh karena itu media dakwah dapat dilihat dalam setiap ungkapan nilainilaiajaran Islam berkait dengan Tuhan Allah SWT dan Rosul-Nya Nabi Muhammad SAW. Dengan demikiansetiap gerak dan musik iringan atau syair dalam kesenian setrek harus dijiwai nilai-nilai ajaran Islam. Ikon-ikondemikian penting untuk dipahami agar mereka dapat selamat hidup di dunia dan di akhirat. Kehadiran agama Islamdalam nafas perkembangan kesenian setrek tampak memperkaya penampilannya, sehingga kehadiran kesenian inidalam kehidupan masyarakat semakin menumbuhkan kualitas dalam beragama Islam, meskipun disadari sisa-sisakepercayaan kuno masih mewarnai kesenian setrek, seperti atraksi ndas-ndasan yang berupa atraksi mengimitasibinatang. Variasi atraksi arak-arakan ndas-ndasan dengan mengelilingi dusun bertujuan untuk mengusir pengaruhroh-roh jahat.Keywords: setrek, kesenian Islam, slawatan.ABSTRACTIslam infl uence on Setrek art in Magelang. Setrek is a type of traditional terbangan art or slawatan (Islamicsong) that serves as a medium for preaching Islam. As a kind of traditional slawatan art, it seems to blend Islamic aestheticelements with aesthetic traditional elements which become a form of cultural acculturation refl ecting the local creativity.The infl uence of Islamic art is not intended to change the overall form of the choreography, but the Islamic elements aremore of Islamic value formality in the form of traditional arts for the purpose of preaching Islam religion. Therefore, theform of presentation remains in the format of Islamic tradition. For example, the presentation of dance movement hardlyfi nds Islam infl uence except takbiratul ihram Allohu Akbar, KyaiBa’in as the representation of Islam priest wearing typicalIslamic outfi t; the music is also Islamic with given poems from Al Barjanzi’s book equipped with terbang and jidor. Islaminfl uence is actually more of a Islamic spirit legacy in setrek art with the hope that all the players and audience can practiceIslam in their daily lives. Therefore, the preaching media of Islam can be seen in any expression of Islamic values in relationto Allah SWT and His diciplesNabi Muhammad SAW. Thus every movement and musical accompaniment or poem insetrek art should be imbued the values of Islam. Icons, thus, are important to understand so that the people can live safelyin this world and in the hereafter. The presence of Islam in the breath of the setrek artistic development looks enriching itsperformance, so the presence of this art among the people living in Kedungan III improves the quality of embracing Islam,although there are the remnants of ancient beliefs which still characterize setrek art, such as ndas-ndasan attraction in theform of imitating animal . Variations in ndas-ndasan attraction parade around the village aims to expel the infl uence ofevil spirits.Keywords: setrek, Islam music, slawatan.

This paper discusses tensions and identity resistance in a cross-cultural educational context in the United Arab Emirates. It focuses on how Emirati students, living and socialised in a conservative Arabic-Islamic society and shaped by Islamic values and epistemologies, construct their cultural identities while learning English with their Western-trained teachers, who are influenced by liberal ideologies and secular epistemologies. To understand the complex engagement between Emirati students and their Western-trained teachers this article uses both phenomenography and reflection on critical incidents to explore, investigate and interpret Emirati students’ intercultural experience with their Western-trained teachers and to highlight the tensions and identity resistance that arise from this educational encounter.
