DEPARTEMEN SASTRA INDONESIA, FAKULTAS ILMU BUDAYA UNIVERSITAS DIPONEGORO SEMARANG 2018 ABSTRACT This study aims to explain: (1) the structure of the text of Ahmad Wahib's thought about humanity in the book of Pergolakan Pemikiran Islam by Ahmad Wahib in terms of macro structure, superstructure, and microstructure according to critical discourse analysis theory Teun A. van Dijk; (2) social cognition and social context that shape Ahmad Wahib's thinking about humanity in the book of Pergolakan Pemikiran Islam by Ahmad Wahib. This research is qualitative by using literature study in data supply techniques. The data of this study are in the form of Ahmad Wahib's writings on humanity in the book Pergolakan Pemikiran Islam by Ahmad Wahib. The method of analysis in this study uses the critical discourse analysis method of the van Dijk model. The presentation of the results of this research analysis uses informal method for presentation section. The results of research based on text analysis, social cognition and social contexts show that Wahib is a person who cares about humans and humanity. Wahib does not look at someone in certain boxes or schemes because he understands that there is no objective measure that can be used to understand humans. Humans are always full of subjectivity. Therefore, it is important to see someone based on his whole being as he is, without connecting with which group he is going to.

  • What Is Indonesian Islam?
    M. Laffan, draft paper prepared for discussion at the UCLA symposium ‘Islam and Southeast Asia’, May 15 2006 What is Indonesian Islam? Michael Laffan, History Department, Princeton University* Abstract This paper is a preliminary essay thinking about the concept of an Indonesian Islam. After considering the impact of the ideas of Geertz and Benda in shaping the current contours of what is assumed to fit within this category, and how their notions were built on the principle that the region was far more multivocal in the past than the present, it turns to consider whether, prior to the existance of Indonesia, there was ever such a notion as Jawi Islam and questions what modern Indonesians make of their own Islamic history and its impact on the making of their religious subjectivities. What about Indonesian Islam? Before I begin I would like to present you with three recent statements reflecting either directly or indirectly on assumptions about Indonesian Islam. The first is the response of an Australian academic to the situation in Aceh after the 2004 tsunami, the second and third have been made of late by Indonesian scholars The traditionalist Muslims of Aceh, with their mystical, Sufistic approach to life and faith, are a world away from the fundamentalist Islamists of Saudi Arabia and some other Arab states. The Acehnese have never been particularly open to the bigoted "reformism" of radical Islamist groups linked to Saudi Arabia. … Perhaps it is for this reason that aid for Aceh has been so slow coming from wealthy Arab nations such as Saudi Arabia.1 * This, admittedly in-house, piece presented at the UCLA Colloquium on Islam and Southeast Asia: Local, National and Transnational Studies on May 15, 2006, is very much a tentative first stab in the direction I am taking in my current project on the Making of Indonesian Islam.

This is a literature study on thought that develop within related to NU bodies with Islamic cosmopolitanism discourse for interact and absorb of various element manifestation cultural and insight scientist as a part from discourse of modernism. This study put any number figures of NU as subject. The results of the study show that elements thought from figure of NU, like Gusdur which includes effort eliminate ethnicity, strength plurality culture, inclusive, liberal, heterogeneity politics, and life eclectic religion, has been trigger for the birth of the modernism of thought in the body of NU. It caused change of religious thought from textual to contextual, born in freedom of thinking atmosphere. Keywords: Nahdhatul Ulama, traditionalist, modernist, thought, organization Introduction The dynamic of Islamic thought that continues to develop within the NU organization in the present context, it is difficult to say that NU is still traditional, especially in the area of religious thought. This can be seen in the concept of inclusivism, cosmopolitanism, and even liberalism developed by NU figures such as Abdurrahman Wahid, Achmad Siddiq, and some young NU figures, such as Ulil Absar Abdalla. This shows a manifestation of modern thought. Critical thinking as a feature of modernism seems to have become the consumption of NU activists today. Therefore, a new term emerged among those called "re- interpretation of ahlussunah-waljamaah" and the re-interpretation of the concept of "bermazhab" or sect.

  • Indonesia's Ulama and Politics
    Indonesia's ulama and politics Martin van Bruinessen, "Indonesia's ulama and politics: caught between legitimising the status quo and searching for alternatives", Prisma — The Indonesian Indicator (Jakarta), No. 49 (1990), 52-69. Indonesia’s Ulama and Politics: Caught Between Legitimising the Status Quo And Searching for Alternatives The relationship between ulama, ‘men of Islamic learning,’ and umara, ‘holders of political power,’ has always been ambivalent. On the one hand, ulama at least in the Sunni tradition have always provided religious legitimation for the de facto power holders. On the other hand, there is also a general awareness that power corrupts and that proximity to those in power impairs the ulama’s moral authority and the integrity of their learning. There is a well-known hadith to that effect, often quoted in popular sermons: “the worst among the ulama are those who go and see the umara, while the best among the umara are those who come and see the ulama.” It has been pointed out that this hadith is actually ‘weak’ (da`if), meaning that its attribution to the Prophet is considered very dubious.[1] The fact that it is frequently quoted by ulama and popular preachers in Indonesia nevertheless indicates that the saying expresses something about which they have strong feelings. In a recent research project on the Indonesian ulama’s worldview, about half the ulama interviewed volunteered this hadith when asked what was the correct form of Islam-state relations.[2] Moral, economic and political independence (kemandirian) vis-à-vis the government is a quality that almost all respondents considered essential.

Setelah ada keputusan dari MUI, polisi akan memproses hukum. Setelah ada pernyataan dari MUI, kami akan menindaklanjuti,” kata Kasat Intel Polres Tulungagung, AKP Paidi (Detik.com, 20 Mei 2010). Menteri Agama Suryadharma Ali kembali mengingatkan umat Islam di tanah air untuk mewaspadai gerakan radikalisme atas nama kebebasan demokrasi dan HAM yang banyak muncul belakangan ini. Gerakan tersebut kadang mendorong masyarakat untuk berpikir bebas berlebihan dan melanggar norma umum, katanya di hadapan peserta Muktamar XIV Pemuda Muhammadiyah, di Asrama Haji Pondok Gede, Jakarta, Kamis, (20/5). Salah satu contoh gerakan radikalisme kebebasan adalah adanya gugatan uji materi UU No 1/ PNPS/1965 tentang Pencegahan Penodaan Agama. Pemohon uji materi menilai UU PPA diskriminatif karena hanya mengakui enam agama saja di Indonesia (www.voi.co.id). 3 Pembaharuan tanpa Apologia? ”Rancangan Undang-Undang Jaminan Produk Halal (RUU JPH) dinilai sangat diskriminatif dan tidak berwawasan kebang- saan.” Penilaian ini diungkapkan anggota komisi VIII DPR Tiurlan Hutagaol.

Cak Nur was born in Western education and Hasyim was born in “pesantren” education (boarding school) with its locality. Two of these figures give a change that is significant in modernity context in Indonesia. Theoretical framework that was built by Nurcholish Madjid starts from a fundamental question, i.e. how universal Islam can be placed in local modernity and culture framework. Islam is universal and implication of its universality is Islam must be understood and performed in every place and time. Cak Nur practiced critical to single truth and paid attention on humanistic value in universal religious life. Different to Hasyim Muzadi who built thoughts framework Rahmatan lil alamin through freedom and harmony. Starting from nation problems, how to perform religious function (Islam) in a country without cause national disintegration. Theory framework built by Hasyim starting from a NU’s jargon, i.e. Tasamuh, Tawazun, dan Tawasut. Bringing Islam with full good manners and bland, not make Islam image isolated and grow phobia toward terms what are born from Islam womb.

  • In Search of Hegemony: Islamism and the State in Indonesia
    In Search of Hegemony: Islamism and the State in Indonesia LUQMAN NUL HAKIM This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Melbourne February 2019 Declaration I certify that this thesis is the product of my own research, fewer than the maximum word limit in length, and contains no material which has been accepted as part of the requirements of any other degree at any tertiary education institution, or any material previously published by another person except where due reference is made. Luqman Nul Hakim i Abstract In post-authoritarian Indonesia, but particularly following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Islamism has become a contentious matter of scholarly debate. The prominent accounts emerging from security and democratisation studies place much analytical weight on ideology and culture by often portraying the relationship between Islam and politics in essentialist fashion, associating the dynamics of Islamism with interpretations of Islamic doctrine or the contest between moderate and radical Muslims. The institutionalist literature, on the contrary, explains the rise of Islamism as the result of the weak capacity of the state following the fall of the centralised New Order authoritarian regime. Another variant draws attention to the moderation of Islamic politics as the result of participation in democratic processes, especially electoral politics. Yet, such linear and teleological explanations obscure the complex circumstances that establish the different trajectories of Islamism. They also fail to comprehend how the prevalence of Islamist discourse on power struggles in the current democracy can produce a more conservative and illiberal form of Islamism. In contrast, this thesis utilises the politics of hegemony approach as developed in the traditions of political discourse theory.

  • 6. Inter-Religious Dialogue
    6. Inter-religious Dialogue In the preceding chapters, we discussed the Muslim fear of Christia- nisation and objection to secularism on the one hand, and the Christian fear of an Islamic state and defence of religious freedom on the other. At times, when the relations between Muslims and Christians were tense and mutual suspicions were strong, the Government intervened as a presumed fair and neutral intermediary. However, the political contexts in which a cer- tain Muslim-Christian antagonism occurred frequently led the Government to portray ambivalence: sometimes it supported certain demands of the Islamic groups and sometimes, in line with the Christians, it opposed them. In any case, the Muslim-Christian antagonisms apparently led some of the Christians to believe that their rights as religious minorities could be bet- ter defended through cooperation with the Government rather than with the Islamic groups. Likewise, some of the important leaders of the Islamic groups believed that they could realise their interests more easily if they allied themselves with the Government. This situation necessarily strength- ened the polarisation between the two religious groups. Nonetheless, there were also efforts to bridge the gap between the two religious groups through dialogue. There were two types of dialogue, one was sponsored by the Government and another was initiated by private institutions. In the former case, the Government usually invited the representatives of reli- gious groups as participants. The Government also determined the theme of the dialogue that was usually focused on how peaceful inter-religious co-exist- ence could be established and how each religion could contribute to national development.

    CONTEMPORARY ISLAMIC THOUGHT IN INDONESIAINDONESIANNNN AND MALAY WORLD Islam Liberal, Islam Hadhari, and Islam Progresif 111 Kamaruzzaman Bustamam-Ahmad IAIN Ar-Raniry, Banda Aceh - Indonesia Abstract : Islam in Indonesian and Malay world is very much heterogenuous. Taking Islam Liberal , Islam Hadhari , and Islam Progresif as the subject of analysis, this article deals with the concepts Islam Liberal , Islam Hadhari , and Islam Progresif as products of the trends in Islamic thinking, the impact of these three interpretations of Islam in Malaysia and Indonesia, the similarities and dissimilarities between the three, and their future prospects in the region. It argues that the prominence of the debates surrounding the three currents of Islamic thought is the result of struggles for power and authority in Islamic discourse in the region. It further argues that the Indonesian-based Islam Liberal differs from the Malaysian-based Islam Hadhari in that it does not originate from government sources. Islam Progresif is more of an umbrella term referring to various strands of thought developed by Muslims opposed to the status quo. Although Islam Hadhari is a newly-coined term, it contains many elements in common with other schools of Islamic thought including Islam Liberal and neo-modernist Islam. Keywords : Islam Liberal , Islam Hadhari , Islam Progresif Islamic thought, Indonesian-Malay World. Introduction The diversity of currents in Islamic thought has enriched the development of Islam in Southeast Asia. Islam Liberal (“Liberal Islam”), Islam Hadhari (“Civilizational Islam”), and Islam Progresif (“Progressive 1 I wish to thank Patrick Jory and Ronald Lukens-Bull for their valuable comments during the preparation of this article.

Tapi, bagaimana dengan umat­Nya atau manu­ sia pada umumnya? “Merekalah yang sebenarnya justru perlu dibela” ketika mereka menuai ancaman atau mengalami ketertindasan dalam seluruh aspek kehidupan, baik politik, ekonomi, sosial, budaya dan agama. Konsekuensi dari pembelaan, adalah kritik, dan ter­ kadang terpaksa harus mengecam, jika sudah melewati ambang toleransi. “Pembelaan”, itulah kata kunci dalam esai­esai kumpul­ an tulisan Abdurrahman Wahid kali ini. Maka, bisa dikatakan, esai­esai ini berangkat dari perspektif korban, dalam hampir se­ mua kasus yang dibahas. Wahid tidak pandang bulu, tidak membedakan agama, et­ nis, warna kulit, posisi sosial, agama apapun untuk melakukan­ nya. Bahkan, Wahid tidak ragu untuk mengorbankan image sen­ diri—sesuatu yang seringkali menjadi barang mahal bagi mereka yang merasa sebagai politisi terkemuka— untuk membela korban yang memang perlu dibela.
