Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted religion. Provisions issued by religious authorities were imposed upon Indonesian Muslims to cope with. Various responses were identified representing how their religiosities negotiated. Here, direct participation in the implementation of Tarawih prayers in Surabaya was taken as a research unit. This study focused on (1) the diversity in negotiating religiosities amid the pandemic;(2) its underlying reasons;and (3) its potential implications. This qualitative research methodologically took a constructivist approach and phenomenological design by combining open-ended interviews, behavioral observations, and questionnaires in collecting data. The results demonstrated many factors playing a role in the shaping of diversity. They could include social, political, economic, and cultural considerations. The negotiation occurred through acceptance, resistance, and transformation embodying the tensions between logics of religion in addressing scientific contributions. The diversity of religious negotiation amid the outbreak subsequently confirmed the flexibility and adaptability of Islam in addressing historical dynamics. © 2021, State Islamic University of Sunan Ampel.

2019冠状病毒病大流行期间印尼穆斯林之间的宗教信仰谈判:接受、抵制和转变

新冠肺炎疫情扰乱了宗教。宗教当局颁布的规定被强加给印度尼西亚穆斯林以应付。我们确定了不同的回答，代表了他们的宗教是如何谈判的。在这里，直接参与在泗水实施塔拉威祈祷作为一个研究单位。本研究的重点是:(1)疫情期间宗教谈判的多样性;(2)其潜在原因;(3)其潜在影响。本定性研究采用建构主义研究方法和现象学设计，采用开放式访谈、行为观察和问卷调查相结合的方法收集数据。结果表明，许多因素在多样性的形成中起作用。它们可能包括社会、政治、经济和文化方面的考虑。这种协商经历了接受、抵抗和转变，体现了宗教逻辑在处理科学贡献方面的紧张关系。随后，疫情爆发期间宗教谈判的多样性证实了伊斯兰教在应对历史动态方面的灵活性和适应性。©2021，苏南安佩尔国立伊斯兰大学。版权所有。
