Gendered Continuity and Change in Javanese Pesantren Gendered Continuity and Change in Javanese Pesantren Siti Kholifah, S.Sos, M.Si Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy College of Arts Victoria University December 2014 Abstract The main focus of this study is to examine the role of Muslim feminists in pesantren (Islamic boarding schools) in promoting gender equity. These are important issues because the pesantren is an educational institution within the Islamic community in Java that tends to preserve patriarchal values. This study investigates the strategies of Muslim feminists and obstacles they confront. It explores the endeavours of pesantren leaders to preserve and develop their traditions, particularly related to gender values. Using a feminist perspective through participant observation and qualitative interviews, this research was conducted in three Javanese pesantren: Mu’allimin and Mu’allimaat in Yogyakarta, As- sa’idiyyah 2 Pesantren in Jombang, and Nurul Huda Pesantren in Malang. This study examines how activists within pesantren have sought to develop greater gender awareness. It is argued that activists use ‘soft strategies’ to change gender values, thus avoiding direct confrontation with pesantren traditions. These activists promote contextualisation and reinterpretation of Islamic teaching and endeavour to ‘inject the gender virus’ among santri (pesantren students). This research also shows pesantren still perpetuate and embed patriarchal structures with the kyai (male leader in the pesantren) as a dominant figure. However, religious and cultural change in pesantren is reflected in clothing traditions and bilingual/ multilingual programs, but these changes are mediated by the kyai. This thesis advances several key propositions. First, the patterns of change in developing gender equity are neither linear nor uniform. Muslim feminists have not managed to replace the patriarchial status quo, but they have to compete with other external influences in the form of the PKS (Partai Keadilan Sejahtera/Prosperous Justice Party), which has sought to give the established patriarchy a stronger puritan dimension. However, Muslim feminists have made gender values an issue of contention within pesantren and have sowed the ‘gender virus’. Second, Muslim feminists tend to be identified with Western influence within the discourse of pesantren; however in the dichotomy of Huntington’s (1998) ‘the clash of civilizations’, they have promoted contentious interpretations of Islamic teaching and, just as Islam has been accommodated within Javanese cultural values, they have promoted greater gender equity. Third, identifying themselves with both the i santri and priyayi (Javanese aristrocratic elites) aliran (the variant of the religion of Java), pesantren have accommodated Islamic and Javanese values. The intellectual networking of pesantren continues this accommodation. The pesantren seek to identify with both aliran and seek to strengthen their legitimacy through tracing their kyai's aristocratic and religious lineages. In this respect, the three pesantren differ from Geertz’s (1960) depiction of santri and priyayi as distinct. Finally, following Foucault’s Panopticon concept that based on Jeremy Bentham’s notion (1977), the pesantren structure reflects the gender bias of the Panopticon system that is reflected in stricter rules and regulations for female santri than for male santri. ii Student Declaration I, Siti Kholifah, declare that the PhD thesis entitled “Gendered Continuity and Change in Javanese Pesantren” is no more than 100,000 words in length including quotes and exclusive of table, figures, appendices, bibliographyand footnotes. This thesis contains no material that has been submitted previously, in whole or in part, for the award of any other academic degree or diploma. Except where otherwise indicated, this thesis is my own work. Siti Kholifah 02 December 2014 iii Acknowledgements Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds…many people supported me during my study at Victoria University, and I cannot express enough gratitude to them. This learning experience is a part of the long process of life that includes many contributions from a number of people. I understand I would not be able to reach this experience without any kind of help from them in various ways. My parents are on the top level of deserving my appreciation. They provide me with huge love and spiritual resilience that makes me tough in continuing the long journey. My soulmate and sisters are my energy to work hard in finishing my study with their love and attention. Dr Richard Chauvel, who gave me unlimited guidance, not only in finishing the thesis but also during my time at Victoria University, deserves the highest honour. He also deserves my special thanks for his tremendous job of making my writing style more “Australian”.

  • 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..

  • Susan Blackburn and Sharon Bessell
    M arriageable Ag e : Political Debates on Early Marriage in Twentieth- C entury Indonesia Susan Blackburn and Sharon Bessell The purpose of this article is to show how the age of marriage, especially for girls, became a political issue in twentieth century Indonesia, and to investigate the changing intensity, focus, and participation in the debate over the issue. Compared with India, the incidence of very early marriage among Indonesian girls appears never to have been exceptionally high, yet among those trying to "modernize" Indonesia the fact that parents married off their daughters at or before the onset of puberty was considered a "social evil." Social reformers differed as to the reasons for their concern and as to what action should be taken and by whom. In particular there were strong disagreements about whether government intervention was either desirable or effective in raising the age of marriage. The age at which it is appropriate for girls to marry has been a contentious matter in many countries in recent centuries. In societies where marriage was considered to be the prerogative of families, the children themselves were rarely consulted and the age of marriage, or at least of betrothal, was likely to be quite young, before children could exert their own will. Although physical readiness for sexual intercourse and child­ bearing was a consideration, this was a matter to be supervised by adult kin, and the wedding could, if necessary, be timed so that it occurred separately from the consummation of marriage. Apart from families, the only other institutions directly concerned with marriage were likely to be religious ones.

  • BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Nahdlatul Ulama Adalah Organisasi Masyarakat (Ormas) Islam Terbesar Yang Lahir Pada Tahun 19
    BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Nahdlatul Ulama adalah organisasi masyarakat (Ormas) Islam terbesar yang lahir pada tahun 1926 di Surabaya. Nahdaltul Ulama lahir karena perjuangan Wali Songoyang berperan sebagai penyebar agama Islam di Pulau Jawa. Wali Songo tersebut diantaranya Sunan Gresik, Sunan Ampel, Sunan Giri, Sunan Bonang, Sunan Drajat, Sunan Kalijaga, Sunan Kudus, Sunan Muria, dan Sunan Gunung Jati.1 Dalam memberikan pengajaran Islamnya para Wali mempertahankan faham Ahlussunnah wal Jamaah.2 Dalam praktik beragamanya, para Wali Songo itu bersikap toleransi terhadap adat atau budaya lokal yang dimiliki oleh masyarakat setempat. Adapun cara-cara yang dilakukan oleh mereka adalah denganberusaha menghilangkan unsur-unsur yang menurut mereka bertentangan dengan syariat Islam, dan menggantinya dengan unsur-unsur Islam secara bertahap sehingga terbentuk kebudayaan baru yang lebih Islami. Perkembangan Islam selanjutnya terjadi dalam kurun waktu yang cukup lama dengan adanya dua kelompok Islam yang berbeda yaitu Islam Tradisionalis dan Islam Modernis. Islam Tradisionalis adalah kelompok yang pada dasarnya mempertahankan dan memelihara ajaran yang dianut sejak dahulu yaitu mengikuti empat madzhab yakni Madzhab Hanafi, Maliki, Syafi’I dan Hambali. Para tokoh Islam Tradisionalis yaitu para kiai-kiai besar NU seperti Ahmad Dahlan 1 Amirul Ulum, Muassis Nahdlatul Ulama; Manaqib 26 Tokoh Pendiri NU.

  • Global Indonesia
    Global Indonesia In the nineteenth century, colonial rule brought the modern world closer to the Indonesian peoples, introducing mechanized transport, all- weather roads, postal and telegraph communications, and steamship networks that linked Indonesia’s islands to each other, to Europe and the Middle East. This book looks at Indone- sia’s global importance, and traces the entwining of its peoples and economies with the wider world. The book discusses how products unique to Indonesia first slipped into regional trade networks and exposed scattered communities to the dynamic influ- ence of far- off civilizations. It focuses on economic and cultural changes that resulted in the emergence of political units organized as oligarchies or monar- chies, and goes on to look in detail at Indonesia’s relationship with Holland’s East Indies. The book analyses the attempts by politicians to negotiate ways of being modern but uniquely Indonesian, and considers the oscillations in Indonesia between movements for theocracy and democracy. It is a useful contribution for students and scholars of World History and Southeast Asian Studies. Jean Gelman Taylor teaches Indonesian and Southeast Asia History, Islamic Civilisation and Historiography at the University of New South Wales, Aus- tralia.
