Kauman as Current Little Mecca in Indonesia

Wednesday Forum – 7 December 2022

Kauman is one representation of Little Mecca that still existing in several cities in Java Island, Indonesia. It has been a center of Islamic teachings since the sultanates period until now. Kauman itself historically was a small kampong that next to the grand mosque. It was the home for ulama and his families to live and take care the mosques. After returning home from hajj pilgrimage, some ulama established their own boarding schools in Kauman. They would like to transfer knowledges from Middle East to their students. This makes Kauman emerged an Islamic enclave in urban areas. One prominent Kauman kampong is Kauman of Yogyakarta. It was well known for ulama’s residential area during Mataram Kingdom and early Yogyakarta Sultanate period in the late 18 century. But now it has been changed to be large kampong that inspired the birth of Muhammadiyah, the second mass Islamic organization in Indonesia. This kampong transformation historically show how the inter-linkage connection with Middle East especially pan-Islamism movement and reformist Islam spirit. These two values basically were inspired from the same movement in Arabian Peninsula. Some building itself still has an Islamic architecture that influenced by Middle East. This architecture basically showed the cultural connection with the middle eastern civilization, particularly mosques and boarding schools. More importantly, Kauman is entirely pedestrianized that ensure the quietness condition for students studying Islam inside the surau or langgar. This shows how Arab identity is important to preach Islam in Indonesia especially urban areas. This study would like to reveal the continuing connection between middle eastern influence and Islamic teachings in Kauman.

Have you ever been treated in a hospital with a di Have you ever been treated in a hospital with a different religious affiliation than what we believe in?

In an emergency, we often cannot choose where we will be treated. However, this "emergency" seems to be an entry point to get to know people who have different beliefs from us.

Berita kegagalan Indonesia menjadi tuan rumah Pial Berita kegagalan Indonesia menjadi tuan rumah Piala Dunia U-20 masih hangat di ruang media kita. Apa pun alasannya, "kekecewaan nasional" ini menunjukkan bahwa kultur sepak bola telah mengakar kuat di negeri ini. 

Di beberapa tempat di negara lain, sepak bola bukan sekadar mengakar sebagai kultur, melainkan sudah menghunjam menjadi kultus.

Pada tahun 2016 silam, Walt Disney Animation Studi Pada tahun 2016 silam, Walt Disney Animation Studios merilis "Zootopia", sebuah film animasi tentang peradaban hewan dan masalah kewargaan yang mereka alami. Di situ, hewan-hewan bertindak laiknya manusia bahkan memiliki sistem pemerintahan dan kewargaan yang tak kalah canggih. 

Tentu bukan peradaban utopis semacam itu yang dibayangkan oleh konsep kewargaan ekologis. Namun, keduanya punya persamaan: mengandaikan hewan, dan makhluk lain, sebagai bagian dari kesatuan warga negara; mengakui hak kewarganegaraan tidak sebatas manusia.

Simak tulisan menarik tentang kewargaan ekologis ini hanya di situs web crcs.
Religions and queer identities are often purported Religions and queer identities are often purportedly seen as antithetical to each other, impossible to reconcile, and harshly incompatible to be openly and mutually ‘holding hands’.

Yet in Indonesia, despite mainstream conservative attitude toward queer identities, queer-inclusive voices coming from faith leaders and queer activists are resisting and challenging the status quo.
