Foreword by Director General of Islamic Education, Ministry of Religious Affairs Peace be unto you, and so Allah’s mercy and blessing. The main role of Islamic religious education in school is to support achievement of the national education goal, namely “building learners into human beings that believe in and are devoted to Almighty God, as well as possess noble characters.” Therefore, religious education is an integral part of the national education system. As the Education Law mandates, Muslim students are entitled to a religious education in accordance with their religious beliefs, and taught by an educator from the same religious affiliation. In line with the development of religious living, and increasingly complex global social interaction, the Government, through the National Medium-term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2015-2019, aims that religious education will not only improve understanding, practice, and internalization of good values and noble character, but also cultivate values of a culture of peace including tolerance, respect, and harmony among students with different religious affiliations. This is also inspired by the president’s vision on changing the character of Indonesian human resources, known as Revolusi Mental (Mental Revolution). While the values of a culture of peace are embedded within the nation’s culture and hence should be cultivated in school, there is evidence that religious radicalism has infiltrated a number of education institutions. This study on Islamic religious education serves as a response of the Directorate General of Islamic Education, the Ministry of Religious Affairs, in an effort to understand the trend of Islamic radicalism among students, especially SMP (junior secondary school) and SMA (senior secondary school) students. While there was a study that revealed only 30% of Indonesian secondary schools have been infiltrated with radicalism, if it is not thoroughly adressed, the incidence and impact is likely to grow. The study will be used as the basis for formulating policy on Islamic religious education in the future. The Directorate General of Islamic Education has started to integrate the values of a culture of peace into the Islamic religious lessons during the last few years, but greater efforts must be made to develop and expand programs. The research found that the roles of religious education teachers, principals, parents and community are equally important in promoting a culture of peace. The Directorate General of Islamic Education is giving high priority to enriching the content of curriculum of Islamic religious education and improving the competence of the teachers. The Ministry of Education and Culture, local governments, and Islamic community organizations are expected to contribute in accordance with their respective tasks and authorities. Study on Islamic Religious Education in Secondary Schools in Indonesia v With the completion of this study, we express our gratitude to ACDP, which provided technical assistance in the implementation of the research. The Directorate General of Islamic Education will follow up the study as a key input in the formulation of policies, programs, and strategies to improve the quality of Islamic religious education at school. We also express our gratitude to the consulting team from Oxford Policy Management, and editors of this research report. We hope our efforts will be a good deed that will be rewarded by Allah the Almighty God. Amen. And peace be unto you, and so Allah’s mercy and blessing. Jakarta, 12 April 2015 Director General of Islamic Education Prof. Dr. Phil. H. Kamaruddin Amin, MA NIP: 196901051996031003 vi Directorate General of Islamic Education, Ministry of Religious Affairs Republic of Indonesia Foreword by Director of Islamic Religious Education, Ministry of Religious Affairs Peace be unto you, and so Allah’s mercy and blessing. This study on Islamic Religious Education in Secondary Schools in Indonesia describes the threat on how far radicalism has begun to infiltrate schools, how radicalism reaches students, the direction of Islamic religious education in countering radicalism, and experiences of other selected countries. In addition, this research also provides conclusions and recommendations on policy options and strategy to prevent the infiltration of radicalism. Furthermore, this study has also led to the development of enrichment materials for Islamic religious education curriculum content, to include values of democracy, socio-cultural diversity, and human rights. A key part of this is to improve the teaching and learning methodology of the Islamic religious education built on problem-solving, creativity and encouraging critical thinking of learners. Current initiatives being implemented by the Directorate of Islamic Religious Education in improving the quality and the role of Islamic religious education in schools are enhanced using the recommendations from this research, namely: i. Enriching the design of teacher’s guideline on “Multiculturalism Education”; ii. Fostering the Islamic leaders or counselors of the Islamic extra-curricular activities in the form of national jamboree; iii. Organizing similar training for the counselors of the Subject Teacher Forum of Islamic Religious Education (MGMP-PAI); iv. Preparing the candidates of national, provincial, and district trainers in the improvement of the Islamic religious learning methodology based on problem-solving and critical thinking to provide training for all Islamic religious teachers in Indonesia; and v. Preparing specific teacher training guidelines and materials for Islamic religious teachers in schools. This study, and its associated programs and activities for improving the teaching of Islamic Religious Education, will be a key reference to the officers and staff in the Directorate of Islamic Religious Education, provincial/district Regional Offices, organizers of the Subject Teacher Forum of Islamic Religious Education (MGMP-PAI), and Islamic Religious Education teachers. In addition the study will be important for school principals, staff of Regional Education Service Offices, leaders of Islamic community organization, and parents.

  • The Islamic Caliphate's Influence in Southeast Asia Rohan Gunaratna
    9th Berlin Conference on Asian Security (BCAS) International Dimensions of National (In)Security Concepts, Challenges and Ways Forward Berlin, June 14-16, 2015 A conference jointly organized by Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik (SWP), Berlin and Konrad-Adenauer -Stiftung (KAS), Berlin Discussion Paper Do Not Cite or Quote without Author’s Permission Session IV: Islamic State and Asia Rohan Gunaratna S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies Singapore The Islamic Caliphate's influence in Southeast Asia Rohan Gunaratna Introduction June 29, 2015 marks the first anniversary of the Islamic Caliphate (IS). As it seeks to expand its core area of Iraq and Syria, enlists support groups and individuals, and create provinces worldwide, the rise of IS presents a global threat. Despite military, diplomatic, political, economic, and other efforts by the International Community to target IS, the group has expanded operationally in theatre and its influence worldwide. As IS eclipse al Qaeda as the dominant global threat, the world faces a hybrid threat from two networks of terrorists and extremists: Al Qaeda and IS. In Asia too, both these networks present a formidable challenge. In Southeast Asia, governments are still coming to terms with IS and its affiliated groups in the region. The Context The AQ-centric global threat landscape is eclipsed by an IS-AQ hybrid threat. The threat groups worldwide have either pledged allegiance to IS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi or expressed support to IS. Both in the physical and virtual space, IS footprint is expanding. With Asian foreign fighters traveling to Syria and Iraq, IS presents a growing threat to the stability and security of Asia.

International terrorist organizations are showing flexibility in their tactical choices, as they adapt to counter-terrorism actions, form sleeper cells, and actively use modern technology to recruit supporters and carry out attacks. The activities of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), Al-Qaida, Katibat al Tawhid wal-Jihad and the terrorist alliance Levant Liberation Organization pose the greatest threat at present. The terrorist organization ISIL is moving away from the image of a quasi-state to shape the image of a global-scale international terrorist organization with a number of affiliates in different regions of the world.

W TheW threat of the Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) has reverberated in Southeast Asia, from where individuals, including young women and individuals with families, have travelled to conflict zones in Syria and Iraq. The seriousness of the threat of ISIS however, comes from Southeast Asian fighters who will return home from battle with fresh combat skills, radical ideologies and extensive networks. The potential for these Southeast Asian terrorist returnees to mount attacks and to further radicalise and recruit other individuals, is therefore, of notable concern to governments in this region. In this issue, Anton Chan discusses the medium and the message used by ISIS that has appealed to its legions of supporters in Southeast Asia.

This recognition is because Indonesia has hinted more progress and improvement in democracy and human rights than other Muslim countries such as Turkey, Egypt and Pakistan. Freedom of press, the implementation of fair general elections, the distribution of power among the state institutions (trias politica) and some many others are main indicators depicting the rapid democratisation of Indonesia.

  • Jamaah Anshorut Tauhid
    BAB III JAMAAH ANSHORUT TAUHID A. Sejarah Awal Berdirinya Jamaah Anshorut Tauhid Berdirinya Jamaah Anshrut Tauhid lahir dari perpecahan di dalam Majelis Mujahidin Indonesia (MMI) akibat perbedaan sejumlah pandangan. Benih perpecahan di Majelis Mujahidin Indonesia sejak awal sudah terlihat. Bahkan proses terbentuknya MMI juga melalui serangkaian perdebatan panjang di dalam kelompok-kelompok Islam yang bertemu saat itu. Ketika beberapa tahun menjadi Amir di MMI posisi Abu Bakar Ba‟asyir yang memimpin sejak 7 Agustus 2000 harus menghadapi sejumlah kasus hukum yang dikaitkan kepadanya. Situasi ini terkait dengan aksi-aksi teror peledakan Bom yang terus berlanjut di berbagai wilayah di Indonesia. Tekanan kepada pemerintah Indonesia untuk menyelesaikan kasus-kasus aksi teror kian gencar terutama setelah peristiwa serangan gedung World Trade Center (WTC) 9/11 2001 di New York. Arah sangkaan selalu memunculkan nama Abu Bakar Ba‟syir sebagai Amir JI yang memberikan perintah kepada aksi-aksi teror yang terjadi saat itu di Indonesia. Namun berbagai tuduhan tersebut tidak dapat dibuktikan di pengadilan terkait keberadaan kelompok JI dan posisi Abu Bakar Ba‟asyir di dalamnya. Tahun 2002 Abu Bakar Ba‟asyir menghadapi tuntutan hukum yang membuatnya harus mendekam lagi di dalam penjara. Akhirnya Abu Bakar Ba‟asyir bebas dari tahanan pada tahun 2006 setalah proses hukum yang berliku-liku. Keinginan Abu Bakar Ba‟asyir yang sempat tertunda terhadap perubahan sistem di MMI baru dapat dilaksanakan setelah keluar dari penjara. Tuntutan perubahan itu di dasari atas beberapa persoalan seperti soal model jamaah, struktur kepemimpinan, tata cara pemilihan pemimpin, 48 posisi amir dengan Majelis Syura. Seperti yang ditegaskan oleh Fuad Al Hazimi bahwa akar persoalaan itu sebagai berikut: “Nah ketika beberapa tahun di MMI.
