I would like to express my sincere thanks to my advisor Prof. Robert W. Hefner who has encouraged me to study anthropology. It started in the early 2000s when I assisted him during his research in Indonesia. Along the way we discussed a plethora of issues ranging from politics to education. I never thought that this assistantship would eventually bring me to Boston University. Prof. Hefner has been helpful during the making of this dissertation. He tirelessly advised me how to write a good dissertation and how to become a good scholar. Special thank goes to Prof. Augustus Richard Norton who became my second reader. Prof. Norton always welcomed me in his office and offered me valuable comments on my dissertation. Prof. Norton is one of the people who took my interest of study beyond Indonesia and Southeast Asia. I learned a lot from his class Civil Society in the Middle East. In the Department of Anthropology many people have contributed to the completion of this dissertation. I want to express my thanks go to Prof. Robert P. Weller, Prof. Charles Lindholm, Prof. Tom Barfield, Prof. Adam Kuiper, Prof. Nancy Smith- Hefner, Prof. Jenny White, Prof. Matt Cartmill, Prof. Kimberly Arkin, Mark Palmer, Kathy Kwasnica, and Martin Wraga.

Last but not least, I want to express my sincere gratitude to my family members who accompanied me during my study in Boston: my wife Rahmawati, and my children Rifqi, Gabriel, and Autumn. They are the loves of my life and always helped me every time I lost focus. Their sacrifices are beyond my ability to thank. During the making of v this dissertation I lost my son Gabriel who died in a very tragic way. One Monday morning, I still had the opportunity to take him to school. From behind, I saw him entering his class. He was about to celebrate his 7th birthday. Then I flew to Yogyakarta for fieldwork. A week later, while awaiting my flight back home, my wife called me to say that he swam unattended and drowned. I wish I could have spent more time with him instead of going away to do my fieldwork. This dissertation is dedicated to him. Boston, February 20, 2015 vi THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF KNOWLEDGE: SALAFISM IN POST-SOEHARTO URBAN INDONESIA JAJANG JAHRONI Boston University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, 2015 Major Professor: Robert W. Hefner, Professor of Anthropology ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the production and reproduction of knowledge among Salafi groups in post-Soeharto Indonesia. It specifically discusses the issues of how Salafi groups produce the knowledge they claim to be based on the authentic form of Islam in the context of social, political, and economic change. Salafis advocate the need for a return to the authoritative religious sources: the Holy Qur’an, the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad, and the Salafi manhaj (methods and paths of Salafi teachings). Without the last element, Salafis claim, the proper understanding and practice of Islamic teachings are impossible. The research was carried out in three major sites: Jakarta, Yogyakarta, and Makassar, where significant numbers of Salafis are found. Ethnographic fieldwork, conducted from January to June 2011, and from July 2012 to February 2013, focused on the individual roles, organizational networks, and historical and sociological processes which shaped the reproduction of Salafi knowledge. To create an ideal community based on the Salafist understanding of Islamic ethics, many Salafis create separate enclaves where they erect madrasa and mosques, two strategic institutions fundamental for their development. Claiming to be based on the vii authority of the Prophet, Salafis develop a medicine and market it to other Muslim groups. Most Salafis engage in endogamous marriage to maintain the groups’ solidity. The roles of women within Salafi groups are highly circumscribed. While having careers is possible, women are expected to stay at home and take care of their families. Salafis represent only a tiny minority of Indonesian Muslims, and they compete with a diverse admixture of Muslim groups, which challenge Salafi interpretations of Islamic knowledge. The political aspects of Salafism are visible in a number of matters of religious knowledge and practice. Salafis use the issues of religious purification as a political tool to maintain their identities and to attack other Muslim groups. Heated debates between Salafis and traditionalist, and to a lesser degree, reformist Muslims, which sometimes lead to violent conflicts, are inevitable. While creating sharp social and religious divisions, debates also result in an exchange of ideas among Muslim groups, heightening the diversity of Salafist forms of knowledge and practice. viii Table of Contents Acknowledgments iv Abstract vii Table of Contents ix List of Figures xii Glossary and Abbreviations xiii Chapter One - Introduction 1 a.

  • THE FADÂIL AL-QUR'ân GENRE and ITS SOCIO-POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE Dr. Asma AFSARUDDÎN
    THE FADÂIL AL-QUR'ÂN GENRE AND ITS SOCIO-POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE Dr. Asma AFSARUDDÎN* ÖZET FEDÂİLÜ' L-KUR'ÂN TÜRÜ VE SOSYO-POLİTİK ÖNEMİ Fedâilü'l-Kur'ân, muhtelif hadîs koieksİyonlarmdaki bölümlere ya da Kur'ân'm faziletlerini konu edinen müstakil çalışmalara verilen genel bir başlıktır. Genel olarak, bu konuyla ilgili literatür görmezden gelinmiş ve tarihçi için ciddi anlamda malzeme içer­ mediği düşüncesiyle derinliğine çalışılmamıştır. Ben bu makalede, hem dinî tarih hem de sosyal tarih çalışanları için bu literatürün çok yararh olduğunu ve Kur'ân tarihiyle ilgili veriler yanında, ilk dönem dinî ve entelektüel muhitin oluşumuyla ilgili de zengin bir muhteva taşıdığını göstermeye çalışacağım. Bunun için de fedâilü'l-Kur'ân türünde oluştu­ rulmuş belli başlı eserlerin muhtevasım tespit ve tahlil edeceğim. SUMMARY Fadâil al-Qur'ân is the usual title given to chapters in various hadith compilations or to individual works that deal with the "excellences" or "virtues of the Qur'ân." It is a sub-category of a rather voluminous literature in Islam called fadâil or manâqib ("virtues" or "excellences"). In general, the fadâil material has not been studied in depth, usually dismissed as praise or hagiographie literature that is not worthy of the historian's serious attention. In this paper, I seek to show that both the religious and the social historian may profitably mine the fadâil al-Qur'ân literature for valuable insights into, for example, early attitudes towards writing conventions in the mushafs, manner of recitation, the probity of accepting wages for teaching the Qur'ân, and the authoritativeness of oral vs. written transmission of the Qur'ânic text.

  • The Tradition of Tahlilan on Ternate Society Burhan1, Asmiraty2 1,2Lecturer at the Ternate State Islamic Institute, Dufa-Dufa Ternate Utara
    The International Journal of Social Sciences and Humanities Invention 6(03): 5347-5354, 2019 DOI: 10.18535/ijsshi/v6i3.02 ICV 2015: 45.28 ISSN: 2349-2031 © 2019, THEIJSSHI Research Article The Tradition of Tahlilan on Ternate Society Burhan1, Asmiraty2 1,2Lecturer at the Ternate State Islamic Institute, Dufa-dufa Ternate Utara: Abstract: This study aims to analyze the implementation of tahlilan, society perspective towards this tradition, and the factors of the tahlilan existence on Ternate community. The study was designed in the form of qualitative descriptive research by applying field research, teological normative, and socio-cultural approaches. The data were collected through interview and documentation. The result showed that tahlilan for Ternatenese is nothing but the momentum where family, relatives, friends, and surrounding communities gather to recite some hayyibah sentences (hamfdalah, takbir, shalawat, tasbih), Qur’an verses, dhikr, and other prayers. Ternate society believes that tahlilan is crucial as a medium of da’wah. There are many positive benefits felt by the people of Ternate such as psychological, social, economic, and importantly religious awareness. In religion side, tahlilan is a minfestation of love for Islam and the cultivation of the monotheism concept. The development of understanding and awareness in Muslim religion also lead to a process of evaluation and change in the implementation of tahlilan. In this case, Islamic da'wah succeeds in influencing the socio-cultural life of Ternate community. The tahlilan tradition can exist til now because it is considered to still have coherence with Islamic values, customs and culture. Ternate society still hope that the tradition of tahlilan will last forever.

  • Surau Nagari Lubuk Bauk Dan Surau Gadang Bintungan Sumatera Barat : Tinjauan Gaya Bangunan Dan Makna Ornamen
    Surau Nagari Lubuk Bauk dan Surau Gadang Bintungan Sumatera Barat : Tinjauan Gaya Bangunan dan Makna Ornamen Ivo Giovanni, Isman Pratama Nasution Departemen Arkeologi, Fakultas Ilmu Pengetahuan Budaya, Universitas Indonesia E-mail: [email protected] Abstrak Artikel ini membahas bangunan surau di Sumatera Barat yaitu Surau Nagari Lubuk Bauk dan Surau Gadang Bintungan. Tujuannya adalah untuk melihat pengaruh adat pada bangunan surau berdasarkan tinjauan arsitektur dan makna ornamennya. Selain itu, dilakukan perbandingan antara surau dengan bangunan tradisional Minangkabau lainnya, yaitu rumah gadang dengan menggunakan metode deskriptif analitis. Hal ini dilakukan agar unsur-unsur adat yang terlihat pada surau dapat diuraikan dengan jelas, sehingga dapat diketahui makna dari setiap unsur adat tersebut dan peran surau bagi masyarakat Minangkabau pada saat surau tersebut dibangun. Berdasarkan kajian ini dapat diketahui bahwa Surau Nagari Lubuk Bauk dan Surau Gadang Bintungan memiliki bangunan yang berbeda. Surau Nagari Lubuk Bauk memiliki bentuk yang bertingkat, karena hal ini dipengaruhi oleh aliran adat Koto Piliang yang menganut paham aristokrasi, sedangkan Surau Gadang Bintungan tidak bertingkat karena dipengaruhi oleh aliran adat Bodi Caniago, yang menganut paham demokrasi. Selain itu ragam hias ornamen yang terdapat pada surau ini juga memiliki makna yang mengandung pesan moral yang dapat dijadikan sebagai pedoman hidup bagi masyarakat Minangkabau.

  • A Vivid Research on Gundīshāpūr Academy, the Birthplace of the Scholars and Physicians Endowed with Scientific and Laudable Q
    SSRG International Journal of Humanities and Soial Science (SSRG-IJHSS) – Volume 7 Issue 5 – Sep - Oct 2020 A Vivid Research on Gundīshāpūr Academy, the Birthplace of the Scholars and Physicians Endowed with Scientific and laudable qualities Mahmoud Abbasi1, Nāsir pūyān (Nasser Pouyan)2 Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Medical Ethics and Law Research Center, Tehran, Iran. Abstract: Iran also known as Persia, like its neighbor Iraq, can be studied as ancient civilization or a modern nation. Ac- cording to Iranian mythology King Jamshīd introduced to his people the science of medicine and the arts and crafts. Before the establishment of Gundīshāpūr Academy, medical and semi-medical practices were exclusively the profession of a spe- cial group of physicians who belonged to the highest rank of the social classes. The Zoroastrian clergymen studied both theology and medicine and were called Atrāvān. Three types physicians were graduated from the existing medical schools of Hamedan, Ray and Perspolis. Under the Sasanid dynasty Gundīshāpūr Academy was founded in Gundīshāpūr city which became the most important medical center during the 6th and 7th century. Under Muslim rule, at Bayt al-Ḥikma the systematic methods of Gundīshāpūr Academy and its ethical rules and regulations were emulated and it was stuffed with the graduates of the Academy.
