Author | : | Latifah (CRCS, 2007) |
Abstract | ||
The Catholic Church since Vatican Council II had advised the Church to be open in the adoption of local cultures as long as those were not against the teachings of the Catholic religion. The Catholic Church had defined this as inculturation. Slawatan in the Church had its beginning at the Promasan Parish in Kulon Progo and has now spread into many other areas in the DIY province. Slawatan in Ganjuran has a unique history, that it was developed in the 1980s in order to support the implementation of P4. However, since the collapse of the New Order Regime in 1998, Slawatan has been transformed to become part of the Catholic religious ritual. The transformation had been guided by Promasan Catholic community, among others, Yosef Kartoyono. There are many important values that contributed to the continuation of the Catholic Slawatan in the Mulyodadi Lor: as a communication medium; as a consolidation medium for the religious community; as a prayer medium; as a medium for moral teachings; and as a medium for self actualization through art. The Council of Ganjuran Parish had developed policy on the inculturation of Slawatan, which are: terbangan music, in terms of lyrics and arrangement, has to be in accordance with living values, as prescribed by the Church; that the presence of the music should not negatively affect the understanding of faith; that the presence of the music in the Church could integrate the Church and the local culture. While among the young generation, there are several point of views, in response to the discontinued regeneration of Slawatan in Ganjuran Parish, which are: that the young generation do not fully reside in their village; that the use of refined Javanese language was not fully understood by the young generation; that there was a lack of fundamental skills in terbangan musical instruments. |

Community that gets a lot of attentions in Qur’an is those who are called as the People of the Book. Quranic view of the People of the Book is vary, negative and positive, the matters concerning their religious attitudes as well as their attitude toward Islam and Muslims. Nevertheless they have a distinctive position in Islam. Accordingly various arguments around who are regarded as the People of the Book become significant for its legal and theological consequences. Explicitly al-Qur’an seems to refer to two religious communities Jews and Christians when it talks about the People of the Book. However, different terms apply concerning the People of the Book as well as stating another community result to possibility of extending range and meaning of the People of the Book. Those phenomena will be elaborated through Tafsir al-Azhar written by Hamka. Therefore this thesis is about Hamka’s view toward those who considered as the People of the Book. The research bases it main sources on Hamka’s Tafsir Books that is Tafsir al-Azhar. For that reason the thesis is aimed at reconstruction of Hamka’s view of the People of the Book through his Tafsir al-Azha,r matters are concerning theological views and interreligious relationships. In order to carry out this the writer however collected some relevant verses of the Qur’an to the topic and elaborated them together with other sources inductively and deductively. Hamka’s view toward the People of the Book theologically and sociologically, the matters concerning theological view such as salvation of the People of the Book, interreligious relationships like interreligious marriage and Muslims’ attitudes toward them to some extent are in line to other commentators of the Qur’an. Nevertheless, his life experiences as well as Indonesian context have enriched his views toward other religion, and finally his views will be examined through interreligious framework. |

Abstract:
Tesis ini memuat tema tentang relasi Islam Kristen yang dikaji melalui pendekatan eksegese terhadap teks kitab suci, Kejadian 12:1-9, dan Surah Ali Imran 64-69. Kajian ini bertujuan pertama, melakukan penafsiran terhadap teks-teks tersebut dalam upaya memahami kandungan nilai teologis yang terkandung di balik setiap teks. Dalam hubungan dengan hal tersebut maka metode yang digunakan adalah sosio-historis, di mana konteks sejarah dari teks yang terkait dengan, situasi sosial, politik, ekonomi, budaya, ideologi masyarakat yang secara langsung berhubungan dengan teks yang ditulis, maupun yang diwahyukan. Demikian juga bagaimana memahami konteks realitas pembaca sekaligus penafsir saat ini yang hadir dengan perbedaan ideology, sosial, ekonomi, politik bahkan budaya dan tingkat pendidikan yang berbeda sekaligus membentuk pola pikir dalam melakukan interpretasi, terhadap teks-teks kitab suci, sehingga tidak terjebak pada pemaknaan secara literasi dan pemberhalaan, tetapi semakin membuat teks bermakna dan kaya dengan gagasan etis teologis yang dapat dijadikan sebagai asset berteologi dari kedua tradisi keagamaan. Kajian Eksegese terhadap Kejadian 12:1-9 dan surah Ali Imran 64-69, menurut penulis mengandung kekayaan teologis yang pluralis sehingga mampu mendobrak relasi-relasi antaragama yang terpasung akibat pemaknaan teks-teks kitab suci secara literasi. Hasil interpretasi dari kedua teks tersebut menjadi kekuatan bagi penulis dalam memahami realitas gerakan fundamentalisme di Indonesia yang bagi penulis merupakan ancaman terhadap relasi Islam dan Kristen. Hal ini adalah implikasi dari pemaknana teks yang bersifat literasi. Oleh sebab itu, dari hasil kajian ini memperlihatkan bahwa prinsip-prinsip hermeneutic sangat penting dan bermamfaat dalam upaya interpretasi teks-teks kitab suci agar lebih terbuka, dan bermakna Kata Kunci: Teks, hermeneutik, Interpretasi, sikap, perilaku, dan pandangan umat.
Title | : | Radical Islam In Surakarta And Response Of The Christian Community |
Author | : | Ismail Yahya (CRCS, 2003) |
Abstract | ||
This research surveys various response to make sociological sense of the diverse Muslim movements often lumped together under the label of radical Islam. The respondent of this research is the Christian community with diverse social backgrounds. The research took place in Surakarta or Solo, as it commonly known, the second largest city after Jakarta in which the radical Islam movements have grown and developed considerably. The focus of this research is the response of the Christian community in Surakarta to groups and activities of radical Islam. The objective of this research is to describe and to explore (1) reactions and perceptions of The Christian community to the emergence and activities of groups of radical Islam in Surakarta. (2) Perceptions of the Christian community to the power of radical Islam to implement their agenda. (3) Spaces for integration and conflict that involve these two religious communities in Surakarta: Islam and Christianity. (4) Future prospects of interreligious relations. This is qualitative research. Primary data are unearthed from observation, and in depth interview. Respondents are determined by snowballing method. Meanwhile, secondary data are gained from documents, such as books, magazines, newspaper, ecncyclopedias, and official documents of the local government of Surakarta. The data are analyzed by descriptive qualitative method. The findings of the research demonstrate that (1) there is shifting paradigm among Christians not seeing the emergence of groups of radical Islam to e directed against and hostility to Christianity, but rather as manifestation of solidarity among Muslims. However, the advance of a religious radical from certain religion can revive -among other factors- a same radical attitude even more radical from other religious community, it creates counter radical, although their characteristics are different. It can be mentioned here, if radical Islam in Surakarta, due to majority, tends to outward political orientation like sweeping of ‘evil’ places and tourists, demonstrations and mass mobilizations, while radical Christians tends to, due to minority and theological influences, inward spiritual orientation and in some cases doing religious missions and proselytism. (2) Culturally, the power of groups of radical Islam to manifest their agenda fails because there is no significant number of supporters and sympathy from abangan and priyayi. (3) Conflict and integration are inherently factors attached to humans. People of Surakarta have independently spaces for social integration, but also have conflict spaces that easily be lit. Thus, creating wide, natural, permanent, sustainable, and bottom-up spaces for integration caneliminate and abate social conflicts in society. (4) Good or bad of interreligious relations, particularly Muslim Christians relations in Indonesia depends on how far each of religious communities is, the worse to their relations. Thus, religious elites always be hoped to maintain their followers to be not radical. |

Penulis: Nafis Irkhami (CRCS, 2005)
Kata-kata Kunci: Al-Maraghi, Tafsīr al-Maraghī, ahl al-kitāb, keselamatan
Abstrak:
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh gambaran yang utuh tentang pandangan keselamatan ahl al-kitab, yaitu Yahudi dan Nasrani, dalam tafsir al-Maraghi. Penelitian tesis ini sepenuhnya didasarkan pada penelitian kepustakaan (library research). Sumber utama yang menjadi obyek penelitian adalah kitab Tafsīr al-Maraghī karya Syaikh Ahmad al-Maraghi. Selanjutnya hasil penelitian dirumuskan dan dianalisis melalui analisis isi (content analyze). Metode penulisan tesis ini melibatkan penggunaan indeks ayat al-Qur’an (concordance), pembacaan yang teliti atas teks ayat dan pengkajian penafsiran al-Maraghi atas ayat-ayat yang berkaitan. Beberapa ayat dikumpulkan dengan merujuk pada frase-frase yang menunjuk secara langsung kepada kaum Yahudi dan Nasrani maupun merujuk pada frase-frase yang tidak secara langsung menunjuk pada dua komunitas ini. Setelah dikumpulkan, ayat-ayat yang berkaitan diklasifikasikan ke dalam beberapa kelompok sesuai dengan gagasan yang dikandungnya. Kelompok pertama terdiri dari ayat-ayat yang berbicara tentang apresiasi al-Qur’an terhadap komunitas agama tersebut, baik apresiasi positif maupun negatif. Kelompok kedua merupakan ayat-ayat yang memuat konsekuensi logis dari kedua bentuk apresiasi tersebut, yaitu tentang keselamatan dan ketidakselamatan bagi mereka. Langkah selanjutnya adalah menemukan ayat-ayat tersebut dalam Tafsīr al-Maraghī dan menganalisis bagaimana al-Maraghi menafsirkannya.
