Ali Jan.Ali@westernsydney.edu.au <p>This study investigates three key questions: how Muslim youth interpret religion in the Internet era, how the Internet influences and constructs it, and how religion is conceptualized. This is a qualitative study. The data was gathered through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. This study comprised 71 Muslim teens aged 17 to 21 from Kediri Regency who were chosen for their extensive usage of the Internet to explore Islam. The analysis involved data reduction, visualization, and conclusion. Data analysis techniques included descriptive, analytical, and interpretative approaches. The study's findings revealed that Muslim teenagers who learn Islam online experience hyperspirituality due to hypersemiotics. False indications and incomplete learning due to ignorance of Islamic religious research should lead to a nihilistic interpretation of Islam. Teens are deceived by the ideology driving religious information on the Internet, which they believe is neutral. Anti-ideological ideologies undoubtedly serve ideological goals. As a result, they incorrectly feel that the lack of dogma in online Islamic education prevents them from achieving their primary purpose.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 https://ejournal.uinsaid.ac.id/index.php/al-araf/article/view/8913 MODUS VIVENDI: TRADITION IN TRANSITION, SHIFTING LANDSCAPE OF PESANTREN, AND RATIONALITY ON INDUSTRIALIZED COMMUNITIES 2024-04-24T09:19:09+07:00 Imron Mustofa imron_mustofa@uinsby.ac.id Abd.

Complexity, characterized by shifting values and emerging global identities, has co-opted the mode of existence of communities in sophisticated industrial countries. The dilemma between preserving local customs and the demands of globalization presents a distinct challenge. This study takes a qualitative approach, collecting data through approaches such as in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and critical analysis. Data sources are purposefully chosen from various strata of industrial society in order to acquire a comprehensive understanding. The investigation validates intriguing facts about Kaliwungu society. Based on the </span><span lang="EN-US">diffusion perspective, the result shows that</span><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">there is a trend toward higher spiritual ideals in deciding societal positions, including political decisions. This plainly rules out the possibility of an exponential link between hedonism and industrialization. Furthermore, population movement from different origins to a given location is difficult, necessitating social harmonization and integration processes. Similarly, spiritual ideals, mental patterns, and social attitudes interact and change as a logical result of everyday exposure to modern values.</span></div> 2024-06-29T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 https://ejournal.uinsaid.ac.id/index.php/al-araf/article/view/8945 IDENTITY POLITICS IN PROGRESS: A CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF SYAFII MAARIF’S IDEAS 2024-07-01T16:09:29+07:00 Mukhijab mukhijab@widyamataram.ac.id Muna Yastuti Madrah munamadrah@unissula.ac.id Meredian Alam meredian.alam@ubd.edu.bn <p>In Indonesia’s political landscape, there is a current tension between identity politics and populist ideologies. Identity politics is a broad term used to describe political movements and actions related to religious identities and institutions, particularly in an Islamic setting. However, it raises concern about how we will investigate identity politics as part of a contextual, constituent-based approach to politics. The current study investigates Syafii Maarif’s political views. By employing a social hermeneutic approach and interpretive methodologies, this thought is elaborated in this study. The investigation reveals three primary elements of identity politics based on Maarif’s analysis: 1) ethnicity, 2) religion, and 3) political ideology. According to Maarif, any political activity that has these three characteristics is intrinsically saturated with identity politics. As a result, Muslim politics are often limited and narrowly defined. To address this constraint, the findings of this study advocate the actualization of the notion of identity politics to make space for populist politics. While religion, ethnicity, and political ideology coexist, a populist approach is still relevant in Islamic politics, persuasion methods, and specific constituency-based political connections.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 https://ejournal.uinsaid.ac.id/index.php/al-araf/article/view/9508 ISLAMIC MORAL IDEAS AND POLITICS: ULAMA ACTIVIST HADRATUS SHEIKH HASYIM ASY'ARI AND SHEIKH NAWAWI AL BANTANI 2024-08-06T08:45:47+07:00 Ubaidillah Baydi ubaidillah@uinsatu.ac.id Hibbi Farihin hibbifarihin@gmail.com Ali Abdurrahman rahmanaisya6@gmail.com <p>The article aims to provide an overview of the fundamental ideas in Indonesian national political settings, as well as their significance in solidifying the four pillars of Indonesian identity. Based on a library study of the works of two great Indonesian Ulama, Sheikh Nawawi al-Bantani and Sheikh Hasyim Asy'ari, which were later analyzed using the content analysis method, the results revealed that the theological principles of the masters' actions in both the Qur'an and the hadith remained the basis of obedience, unity, brotherhood, and solidarity. Sheikh Nawawi al-Bantani generally supports components of national commitment, conservation, and natural resource management in the political Islamic framework, and he does not oppose the concept of truth. While Sheikh Hasyim Asy'ari emphasized characteristics of government management such as leadership maturity, unity, and brotherhood, which resulted in the formation of the four national pillars as a consensus among the nation's citizens.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 https://ejournal.uinsaid.ac.id/index.php/al-araf/article/view/8426 A SPATIAL ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDY OF THE JIRAT AND MUSLIM NOBLES CEMETERY IN LOMBOK 2024-04-17T14:48:43+07:00 Muhamad Satok Yusuf denjatayu2@gmail.com <p>This study aims to analyze the spatial configuration of nine Muslim noble cemeteries in Lombok, which are divided into separate areas called <em>jirats</em> and cemeteries, where individuals and communities are buried. Spatial archaeology approaches are employed to collect, process, analyze, and interpret data. The study revealed that the Lombok cemetery consisted of headstones, <em>jirat,</em> a pavilion, a fence, a gate, and trees, all of which formed a cohesive cultural area and followed Islamic customs. In Lombok, the <em>jirat</em> is a boundary that separates personal and communal areas designated for the deceased. These areas are determined based on lineage and the level of nobility. Most Muslim noble cemeteries in Lombok exhibit the influence of pre-Islamic and Hindu customs. The northern, north-eastern, and eastern sections of the cemetery hold the highest level of sanctity, reserved for the interment of the most distinguished individuals. The highlands were selected as the primary site for the burial of Muslim nobles in Lombok due to their association with sanctity and the elevation of the deceased's status.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 https://ejournal.uinsaid.ac.id/index.php/al-araf/article/view/8819 SOREN KIERKEGAARD'S EXISTENTIALISM: A STUDY ON HOW TO ENJOY LIFE DURING THE POST-TRUTH ERA 2024-04-24T09:30:27+07:00 Riki Saputra rikisaputra.rs87@gmail.com Mahyudin Ritonga mahyudinritonga@gmail.com Arrasyid arrasyid350@gmail.com <div> <p>This study aims to explain the means of deriving enjoyment in life during the post-Truth era by drawing upon the existentialist values of Soren Kierkegaard. A qualitative approach is adopted with a conceptual design, utilizing exploratory, interpretative, and analytical methods. The results showed that individuals were able to derive enjoyment from life during the Post-Truth Era by embracing the following Soren Kierkegaard's existentialism values: Firstly, being oneself; living under the narrative of the heart and mind. Secondly, being moral and adhering to universal rules. Thirdly, living a religious life, having a direct connection with God, and being critical of religion. Previous studies had extensively explored Soren Kierkegaard's existentialism, but none specifically examined its concept as a means of enjoying life.</p> </div> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024
