FM-Islam & Politics.Indd Translated by Translated R É MY MADINIER Jeremy Desmond Jeremy he Masyumi Party, which was active in Indonesia from 1945 to 1960, constitutes the boldest attempt to date at reconciling Islam and democracy. TMasyumi proposed a vision of society and government which was not bound by a literalist application of Islamic doctrine but rather inspired by the values of Islam. It set out moderate policies which were both favourable to the West and tolerant towards other religious communities in Indonesia. Although the party made significant strides towards the elaboration of a Muslim democracy, in ISLAM nd OLITICS its achievements were nonetheless precarious: it was eventually outlawed in 1960 for having resisted Sukarno’s slide towards authoritarianism, and the I NDONESIA ISLAM and refusal of Suharto’s regime to reinstate the party left its leaders disenchanted and marginalised. Many of those leaders subsequently turned to a form of Islam known as integralism, a radical doctrine echoing certain characteristics of 19th-century Catholic integralism, which contributed to the advent of a POLITICS in Muslim neo-fundamentalism in Indonesia. This book examines the Masyumi Party from its roots in early 20th-century Muslim reformism to its contemporary legacy, and offers a perspective on P INDONESIA political Islam which provides an alternative to the more widely-studied model of Middle-Eastern Islam. The party’s experience teaches us much about the fine line separating a moderate form of Islam open to democracy and a certain degree of secularisation from the sort of religious intransigence which can threaten the country’s denominational coexistence. Rémy Madinier is a senior researcher at the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) and co-director of the Centre Asie du Sud-Est (CASE-EHESS). Jeremy Desmond teaches English at the Jean Moulin University in Lyon. He has already translated a number of articles on Southeast Asian studies.

Th is was not, however, the original acceptation of this term, which merely referred to Muslims who wished to see their religion play a role in public life, thus meaning that it could quite readily be applied in relation to Masyumi’s leaders. I have used, for convenience’ sake, the term “modernist” and “reformist” interchangeably with relation to Islam, except in cases where it might lead to confusion. Th e two movements are very similar, although reformism, unlike its modernist counterpart, includes the proponents of Wahhabi fundamentalism. I have often referred to the secular nationalists simply as “nation- alists”, in contrast to the representatives of political Islam. It should not be forgotten however that the latter were also nationalists insofar as they also supported the struggle for national independence. Since independence, Indonesian spelling has undergone two re- forms. Th e fi rst one, in 1947, replaced “oe” by “u”, while the second, in 1972, changed “dj” into “j”, “tj” into “c”, “sj” into “sy” and “ch” into “kh”.

  • Nasionalisme Islam: Telaah Pemikiran Dan Kiprah Hadji Agus Salim
    NASIONALISME ISLAM: TELAAH PEMIKIRAN DAN KIPRAH HADJI AGUS SALIM Novizal Wendry [email protected] Dosen Jurusan Syariah STAIN Padangsidimpuan Abstrak Hadji Agus Salim adalah salah seorang tokoh nasionalis Islam yang hidup dalam tiga zaman, Belanda, Jepang, dan awal kemerdekaan. Pemikiran nasionalisme Islam Salim dipengaruhi oleh pendidikan sekuler Belanda dan interaksinya dengan tokoh pembaharu lintas Negara seperti Jamaluddin al-Afgani dan karya-karya tokoh pembaharu Negara lainnya ketika ia menjadi penerjemah pada konsulat Belanda di Jeddah tahun 1906. Nasionalisme Islam yang digusung oleh Salim berkeinginan untuk memperjuangkan hak-hak kemerdekaan yang telah dirampas oleh Pemerintah Hindia Belanda berdasarkan asas-asas Islam. Nasionalisme Islam ini berbeda dengan nasionalisme sekuler yang digusung oleh Soekarno dan Hatta, karena memisahkan antara nasionalisme dengan agama. Haji Agus Salim is one of Islamic nationalist leaders who lived in three regimes; the Netherlands, Japan, and early Indonesian independence. Salim’s thought was influenced by the Dutch secular education and his interaction with transnational reformers like Jamaluddin al-Afgani and the works of other reformers when he became a translator at the Dutch consulate in Jeddah in 1906. Islamic Nationalism formulated by Salim wanted to fight the rights of freedom that has been seized by the Dutch government based on Islamic principles. Islamic nationalism was different from secular nationalism formulated by Sukarno and Hatta, when the second separated between nationalism and religion. Kata Kunci: Nasionalis Islam; Nasionalis Liberal; Agus Salim. Pengantar Hadji Agus Salim adalah sosok yang populer bagi masyarakat Indonesia. Nama ini telah dikenalkan kepada seluruh anak bangsa ini semenjak duduk di bangku Sekolah Dasar hingga Sekolah Menengah Atas sebagai salah seorang Pahlawan Nasional.

    Abdul Rahman / Masyumi dalam Kontestasi Politik Orde Lama 159 MASYUMI DALAM KONTESTASI POLITIK ORDE LAMA Abdul Rahman Fakultas Ilmu Sosial Universitas Negeri Makassar Jl. A.P Pettarani, Kampus Gunungsari Timur, Makassar Email: [email protected] Abstrak - Masyumi pada awalnya didirikan 24 Oktober 1943 sebagai pengganti MIAI (Madjlisul Islamil A'laa Indonesia) karena Jepang memerlukan suatu badan untuk menggalang dukungan masyarakat Indonesia melalui lembaga agama Islam. Meskipun demikian, Jepang tidak terlalu tertarik dengan partai-partai Islam yang telah ada pada zaman Belanda yang kebanyakan berlokasi di perkotaan dan berpola pikir modern, sehingga pada minggu-minggu pertama, Jepang telah melarang Partai Sarekat Islam Indonesia (PSII) dan Partai Islam Indonesia (PII). Selain itu Jepang juga berusaha memisahkan golongancendekiawan Islam di perkotaan dengan para kyai di pedesaan. Para kyai di pedesaan memainkan peranan lebih penting bagi Jepang karena dapat menggerakkan masyarakat untuk mendukung Perang Pasifik, sebagai buruh maupun tentara. Setelah gagal mendapatkan dukungan dari kalangan nasionalis di dalam Putera (Pusat Tenaga Rakyat), akhirnya Jepang mendirikan Masyumi. Masyumi pada zaman pendudukan Jepang belum menjadi partai namun merupakan federasi dari empat organisasi Islam yang diizinkan pada masa itu, yaitu Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), Muhammadiyah, Persatuan Umat Islam, dan Persatuan Umat Islam Indonesia. Setelah menjadi partai, Masyumi mendirikan surat kabar harian Abadi pada tahun 1947. Kata Kunci: Masyumi, Politik, Orde

KUSUMA AND R.E. ELSON A note on the sources for the 1945 constitutional debates in Indonesia In 1962 J.H.A. Logemann published an article entitled ‘Nieuwe gegevens over het ontstaan van de Indonesische grondwet van 1945’ (New data on the creation of the Indonesian Constitution of 1945).1 Logemann’s analysis, presented 48 years ago, needs revisiting since it was based upon a single work compiled by Muhammad Yamin (1903-1962), Naskah persiapan Undang-undang Dasar 1945 (Documents for the preparation of the 1945 Constitution).2 Yamin’s work was purportedly an edition of the debates conducted by the Badan Penyelidik Usaha Persiapan Kemerdekaan (BPUPK, Committee to Investigate Preparations for Independence)3 between 29 May and 17 July 1945, and by the 1 Research for this article was assisted by funding from the Australian Research Council’s Dis- covery Grant Program. The writers wish to thank K.J.P.F.M. Jeurgens for his generous assistance in researching this article. 2 Yamin 1959-60. Logemann (1962:691) thought that the book comprised just two volumes, as Yamin himself had suggested in the preface to his first volume (Yamin 1959-60, I:9-10). Volumes 2 and 3 were published in 1960. 3 The official (Indonesian) name of this body was Badan oentoek Menjelidiki Oesaha-oesaha Persiapan Kemerdekaan (Committee to Investigate Preparations for Independence) (see Soeara Asia, 1-3-1945; Pandji Poestaka, 15-3-1945; Asia Raya, 28-5-1945), but it was often called the Badan Penjelidik Oesaha(-oesaha) Persiapan Kemerdekaan (see Asia Raya, 28-5-1945 and 30-5-1945; Sinar Baroe, 28-5-1945).

  • Orang Yang Telah Berhaji Harus Jadi Katalisator, Begini Penjalasan Wamenag
    Orang yang Telah Berhaji Harus jadi Katalisator, Begini Penjalasan Wamenag Realitarakyat.com – Wakil Menteri Agama Zainut Tauhid Sa’adi menyatakan bahwa masyarakat yang telah menunaikan haji harus menjadi katalisator atau orang yang membuat perubahan, dan menjadi bagian penting dalam pembangunan masyarakat serta bangsa. “Alumni haji harus terus dijaga kemabruran, semangat, dan perannya dan menjadi ‘haji sepanjang hayat’,” ujar Zainut saat membuka Muktamar Ikatan Persaudaraan Haji Indonesia dalam webiner, Sabtu (21/8). Haji sepanjang hayat itu, yakni selalu berperan positif dan menjadi teladan dalam semua aspek kemasyarakatan, pemerintahan, politik, pendidikan, kesehatan, hingga keamanan. Dia mengutip hasil penelitian UIN Sunan Kalijaga pada 2012 yang menyimpulkan bahwa jamaah haji memiliki pengaruh besar dalam bidang ekonomi, politik, dan pendidikan prakemerdekaan. Beberapa alumni haji itu kemudian menjadi pahlawan, penggerak perjuangan kemerdekaan, di antaranya adalah KH. Hasyim Asy’ari, KH. Ahmad Dahlan, Tuanku Imam Bonjol, A. Hasan, H. Agus Salim, KH. Abdul Wahab Hasbullah, HOS. Tjokroaminoto, dan sejumlah nama lainnya. Pada masa pandemi Covid-19, kata dia, peran haji sangat dibutuhkan, utamanya dalam kampanye menerapkan protokol kesehatan, seperti memakai masker, menjaga jarak, mencuci tangan, mengurangi mobilitas dan menghindari kerumunan, termasuk mendorong program vaksinasi. “Saya mengajak IPHI untuk ikut serta sesuai kapasitas dan kewenangannya untuk memberikan kesadaran hidup sehat dan disiplin di lingkungan masyarakat. Jangan lelah untuk mengingatkan gerakan 5M, berdoa dan vaksinasi,” kata dia. Wamenag juga berharap Muktamar VII IPHI ini dapat memberikan sumbangsih nyata dalam pembangunan kemasyarakatan, kesadaran moderasi beragama, serta dapat memberikan masukan bagi penyelenggaraan haji yang lebih baik. “Jadikan organisasi IPHI sebagai tempat mengabdi kepada masyarakat,” kata dia..

  • Analysis of M. Natsir's Thoughts on Islamic
    Integral-Universal Education: Analysis of M. Natsir’s Thoughts on Islamic Education Kasmuri Selamat Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Sultan Syarif Kasim, Riau, Indonesia [email protected] Abstract. This paper aimed at exploring M. Natsir's thoughts on Islamic education. Using a qualitative study with a historical approach, the writer found that M. Natsir was a rare figure. He was not only a scholar but also a thinker, a politician, and an educator. As an educator, he not only became a teacher, but also gave birth to various educational concepts known as an integral and universal education concept. He was an architect and an anti-dichotomous thinker of Islamic education. According to Natsir, Islam did not separate spiritual matters from worldly affairs. The spiritual aspect would be the basis of worldliness. The foregoing indicated that religious ethics emphasized by Islamic teachings must be the foundation of life. The conceptual basis of "educational modernism" with tauhid as its foundation demonstrated that he was a figure who really cared about Islamic education. Keywords: Integral-Universal Education, M. Natsir, Thought Introduction Minangkabau, West Sumatra, is one of the areas that cannot be underestimated because there are many great figures on the national and international scales in various fields of expertise from this area, such as scholars, politicians, and other strategic fields. Among these figures are Tuanku Imam Bonjol, Haji Agus Salim, Sutan Sjahrir, Hamka, M. Natsir, and others. Everybody knows these names and their works. These figures lived in the early 20th century when three ideological groups competed with one another to dominate in the struggle for independence.

    The Turkish Online Journal of Design, Art and Communication - TOJDAC ISSN: 2146-5193, September 2018 Special Edition, p.809-817 THE IJTIMA’I METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH: A REVIEW ON ECONOMIC VERSES IN TAFSIR AL-AZHAR BY HAMKA (1908-1981) A. H. Usman1*, M. Ibrahim2, M. N. A. Kadir2 1Faculty of Islamic Civilisation Studies, Kolej Universiti Islam Antarabangsa Selangor (KUIS), 43000, Malaysia 2Faculty of Islamic Studies, National University of Malaysia (UKM), Malaysia *[email protected] ABSTRACT Tafsir al-Azhar is one of the popular masterpieces of Indonesian exegete, Hamka. This paper discusses one of Hamka’s great exegetical works. The focus is on his discussion of economic affairs in particular, capitalism, usury and corruption, in the selected text in particular those related to. A qualitative method is adopted in this paper in which selected documents are analysed. This paper found that Hamka has unique approaches in this respect that are closely related to the socio-cultural aspects of Indonesia. Again, like other exegetes, Hamka applies al-ijtima’i in his work. This method seeks to understand the Qur’an by studying its expressions carefully and elaborating their meanings beautifully and interesting style of language in the context of existing cultural system.
