  • Bab I Pendahuluan
    BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1. Latar Belakang Penelitian Indonesia merupakan bangsa yang kaya akan budaya, dari Sabang sampai Merauke terhampar ragam suku, bahasa dan budaya yang berbeda dari yang lainnya. Inilah yang membedakan Indonesia dari bangsa lain sehingga menjadikan Indonesia sangat kaya akan keragaman, dan secara tidak langsung ini menjadi daya tarik bagi pengunjung dari mancanegara untuk berlibur disini. Budaya menjadi salah satu kebanggaan Indonesia dalam memperlihatkan jati dirinya sebagai negara yang sangat kaya. Akan tetapi dengan banyaknya budaya yang ada dan masuknya budaya luar menjadi dampak buruk kepada generasi penerus, dikarenakan mereka tidak mengenali budayanya dan pengertian terhadap budaya itu sendiri. Budaya merupakan suatu hal yang bisa dijadikan identitas unik dan khas bagi suatu daerah. Budaya adalah suatu cara hidup yang terdapat pada sekelompok manusia, yang berkembang dan diwariskan secara turun-temurun dari generasi ke generasi. Ada pula yang mengartikan bahwa budaya adalah suatu pola hidup yang tumbuh dan berkembang pada sekelompok manusia yang mengatur agar setiap individu mengerti apa yang harus dilakukan, dan untuk mengatur tingkah laku manusia dalam berinteraksi dengan manusia lainnya. 1 2 Secara bahasa, “budaya” berasal dari bahasa Sansekerta, yaitu Buddhayah yang merupakan bentuk jamak dari kata Buddhi dimana artinya adalah segala bentuk hal yang berhubungan dengan budi dan akal manusia. Bentuk lain dari kata “budaya” adalah kultur yang berasal dari bahasa Inggris yaitu culture dan bahasa Latin Cultura. Budaya dapat terbentuk dari banyak aspek yang kompleks dan sangat luas, yang termasuk di dalamnya antara lain agama, kepercayaan, hukum, moral, bahasa, adat istiadat, pakaian, bangunan, karya seni, kebiasaan, dan lain-lain. Kehadiran budaya diyakini akan mampu mempengaruhi pengetahuan dari seseorang, gagasan, ide dan lainnya.

  • Religious Specificities in the Early Sultanate of Banten
    Religious Specificities in the Early Sultanate of Banten (Western Java, Indonesia) Gabriel Facal Abstract: This article examines the religious specificities of Banten during the early Islamizing of the region. The main characteristics of this process reside in a link between commerce and Muslim networks, a strong cosmopolitism, a variety of the Islam practices, the large number of brotherhoods’ followers and the popularity of esoteric practices. These specificities implicate that the Islamizing of the region was very progressive within period of time and the processes of conversion also generated inter-influence with local religious practices and cosmologies. As a consequence, the widespread assertion that Banten is a bastion of religious orthodoxy and the image the region suffers today as hosting bases of rigorist movements may be nuanced by the variety of the forms that Islam took through history. The dominant media- centered perspective also eludes the fact that cohabitation between religion and ritual initiation still composes the authority structure. This article aims to contribute to the knowledge of this phenomenon. Keywords: Islam, Banten, sultanate, initiation, commerce, cosmopolitism, brotherhoods. 1 Banten is well-known by historians to have been, during the Dutch colonial period at the XIXth century, a region where the observance of religious duties, like charity (zakat) and the pilgrimage to Mecca (hajj), was stronger than elsewhere in Java1. In the Indonesian popular vision, it is also considered to have been a stronghold against the Dutch occupation, and the Bantenese have the reputation to be rougher than their neighbors, that is the Sundanese. This image is mainly linked to the extended practice of local martial arts (penca) and invulnerability (debus) which are widespread and still transmitted in a number of Islamic boarding schools (pesantren).

  • The Formation of Liberal and Anti-Liberal Islamic Legal Thinking in Indonesia Akh
    Akh. Muzakki IS EDUCATION DETERMINANT? The Formation of Liberal and Anti-liberal Islamic Legal Thinking in Indonesia Akh. Muzakki The University of Queensland, Australia Abstract: Liberalism and anti-liberalism are two increasing- ly prominent but staunchly opposing streams of Islamic legal thinking in Indonesia. This article analyses the formation of each of the two through an examination of the role of formal education. It focuses on organic intellectuals during two periods, the New Order and the reformasi. Challenging the strongly-held thesis of the determinant role of education, this article argues that both liberal and anti-liberal Islamic legal thinking in Indonesia is a result of not only the intellectual formation in the sense of academic training and access to education and knowledge, but also the sociological background and exposure in building a new epistemic community in an urban context. As a theoretical understanding of sociolo- gical background and exposure, the concept of epistemic community deserves to be taken as an analytical framework in addition to education for the analysis of the formation of the two contesting bents of Islamic legal thinking in Indonesia. Keywords: Liberalism, anti-liberalism, Islamic legal think- ing, education, epistemic community. Introduction In his controversial speech entitled “The Necessity of Islamic Renewal Thinking and the Problem of the Integration of the Ummah” on 2 January 1970, Madjid argued for a dynamic approach to Islam which requires reinterpretation of Islamic teachings in context with place and time. In more elaborate ways, he further argued that Islamic values move in line with the spirit of humanitarianism which promotes 280 JOURNAL OF INDONESIAN ISLAM Volume 01, Number 02, December 2007 Is Education Determinant? the dignity of Mankind.

  • Pondok Pesantren: Changes and Its Future
    Journal of Islamic and Arabic Education 2(2), 2010 45-52 Pondok Pesantren: Changes and Its Future GAMAL ABDUL NASIR ZAKARIA ABSTRACT The tradition of education at Pondok Pesantren in Indonesia and in the Malay world possesses a long history and represents a portion of the history of the growth and spread of Muslims in the region. Pondok Pesantren is not only associated with the meaning of Islam but also incorporates the symbol of authenticity of the Malay community. This educational institution functions as an organization for the study of religious knowledge, preserves Islamic traditions, and produces both Muslim scholars as well as leaders. Pondok Pesantren, during its long history, has successfully proven itself to be an Islamic educational institution which is prestigious, of quality and self-supporting. Although its existence has not been influenced by sociopolitical, economical or cultural changes, this does not mean that Pondok Pesantren does not face problems and challenges, be they internal or external ones. This paper will discuss some issues such as the survival of Pondok Pesantren today and in the future with the fast-paced challenges which are happening around us. Key words: Pondok Pesantren, Islamic Educational Institution, Muslim Scholars, Challenges, Survival. ABSTRAK Tradisi pendidikan pondok pesantren di Indonesia dan di dunia Melayu memiliki sejarah yang san- gat panjang dan merupakan sebahagian daripada sejarah pertumbuhan dan perkembangan umat Islam di rantau ini . Pondok Pesantren tidak hanya dikaitkan dengan makna keislaman sahaja tetapi juga mengandungi simbol keaslian masyarakat Melayu. Institusi pendidikan ini berperanan sebagai wadah untuk mendalami ilmu-ilmu agama, memelihara tradisi keislaman, melahirkan ulama dan pemimpin umat.

    Asha{ b< al-Jawiyyin di Haramain M. Fazlurrahman H. – UMS Surabaya ASHA{ B< AL-JAWIYYIN DI HARAMAIN: Aktivisme Sosiso-Religius Islam Nusantara pada Abad 17 dan 18 M. Fazlurrahman H. University of Muhammadiyah Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia [email protected] Abstraks: Berangkat dari pernyataan, penyebaran Islam merupakan proses yang sangat penting dalam sejarah Indonesia, tetapi juga yang paling tidak jelas. Maka merasa perlu untuk mengkaji kembali diskursus yang selalu meresahkan para sejarawan, yaitu dibawa oleh para wirausahawan atau para guru-guru tasawuf; wilayah mana di antara nusantara yang luas, sebagai daerah pertama yang menerima ajaran Islam; jaringan ulama’ dengan pusat Islam di Makkah dan Madinah; lalu korelasi seperti apa yang terjadi antara religi-intelektualisme Islam dengan pembaharuan Islam Nusantara di abad ke- 17 dan 18. Sehingga dari makalah ini diharapkan dapat menekankan sejarah-sosial serta intelektual yang kemudian dapat mereformulasi tradisi, sehingga tak lagi terabaikan seperti studi- studi terdahulu tentang peran para ulama’ di Nusantara untuk menjaga NKRI. Kajian ini merupakan pengkajian pustaka (library research), menggunakan jenis kualitatif dengan model historis faktual. Dari diskursus ini ditemukan, bahwa ulama’ atau kaum cendekiawan Muslim dianggap sebagai pihak yang bertanggung jawab, karena meletakkan dasar agama bagi sentimen anti-kolonial yang kemudian ditransformasi menjadi sebuah ideologi jihad yang berada dibalik pemberontakan melawan kolonial. Akhirnya dapat ditarik sebuah konklusi, yaitu para pelajar yang kembali dari Haramain tampaknya ada dua jenis, yakni mereka yang menentang ide-ide para reformis-Muslim dan mereka yang mendukung. Kata Kunci: al-Jawi, Haramain, Sosio-Religius dan Aktivisme. PENDAHULUAN Suatu paradigma yang memandang pengetahuan manusia (human sciences) sebagai gerak berkemajuan tak lepas dari ajaran subyek yang otonom, yaitu Renaissance.
