This study, however, aims to see intolerance and discrimination as something embedded in Indonesian ideology, i.e. Pancasila, which seems to be lacking in previous studies, including the studies on the connection between Pancasila and discriminative regulations implemented is several districts and provinces in Indonesia. The questions dealt with in this paper are the following: Why did religious radical groups able to exert their influence to the government and moderate Muslim majority in treating minorities? What are, if any, the constitutional and legal limits of religious freedom in Indonesia? This paper aims to scrutinize constitutional and legal documents, including the first pillar of Pancasila, to find their shortcomings in protecting religious freedom. This paper argues that Pancasila has set Indonesia into religiously monotheistic state, which provided the government the necessary tool to force non-theistic, polytheistic, and non-monotheistic religions to modify their theological beliefs in order to be accepted as recognized or official religions. Pancasila also justifies the existence of favoritism to certain religions deemed fit to this ideology. Berbagai survei dan penelitian telah menunjukkan berbagai faktor yang menyebabkan atau memicu bangkitnya intoleransi beragama di Indonesia setelah Reformasi tahun 1998. Penelitian ini ingin melihat intoleransi dan diskriminasi sebagai sesuatu yang secara tak sadar tertanam dalam ideologi Indonesia, yaitu Pancasila. Tema ini tampaknya kurang menjadi perhatian dalam studi sebelumnya, termasuk studi tentang hubungan antara Pancasila dan peraturan diskriminatif yang diterapkan di beberapa kabupaten dan provinsi di Indonesia. Pertanyaan yang dibahas dalam artikel ini diantaranya adalah: Mengapa kelompok-kelompok radikal keagamaan dapat mempengaruhi pemerintah dan mayoritas umat Muslim yang moderat dalam bersikap terhadap kelompok minoritas? Apa, jika ada, batasan konstitusional dan legal kebebasan beragama di Indonesia? Artikel ini bertujuan untuk meneliti dokumen dokumen konstitusional dan hukum, termasuk pilar pertama Pancasila, untuk menemukan kekurangan dalam melindungi kebebasan beragama. Artikel ini berargumen bahwa Pancasila telah menetapkan Indonesia menjadi negara monoteistik religius, yang memberikan pemerintah piranti yang diperlukan untuk memaksa agama-agama non-teistik, politeistis, dan non-monoteistik untuk memodifikasi keyakinan teologis mereka agar diterima sebagai agama yang diakui atau resmi. Pancasila juga membenarkan keberadaan favoritisme untuk agama-agama tertentu yang dianggap cocok dengan ideologi ini.","PeriodicalId":42170,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Islam and Muslim Societies","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42016130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To understand Islamophobia in the United States in the context of religious pluralism, this article adopts Critical Discourse Analysis, under which two theories unfold: sourcing theory and framing theory. The sourcing analysis targeted the media voices monitoring the discourses and contributing to the discursive construction and interpretation of mosque proposal into an agenda-led image. The second theory is framing, which consists of including a perceived reality—in the news—, making it more salient, and presenting it to the audience. The data analyzed were collected from CNN and Fox News via Lexis Nexis online academic database. A total of 225 media transcripts—(n=138) Fox News and (n=87) CNN—constituted the text and were coded and analyzed using Atlas.ti data mining software program. The critical analysis has resulted in a number of 180 voices—e.g. journalists, politicians, academics, officials, etc. — contribution of the discursive construction of the non-violence event, ofwhich 150 were anti-Muslim activists, journalists, politicians, reportedly formerMuslim Brotherhood member, etc. The study has also resulted in two mainframes: frame of illegitimacy and frame of terrorism, transforming the nonviolenceevent into a celebrated violent one, thereby providing a vivid image ofAmerica’s project of religious pluralism and its capacity to accommodate thereligions existing within the American confines.Artikel ini menganalisis peristiwa acara diskursif Masjid Ground Zero danwacana seputar Komunitas Muslim Amerika dan mengeksplorasi peran mediadalam proses produksi dan reproduksi bingkai anti-Muslim.

Even though some terror attacks around the world carried out by people inspired by terrorism indicate that terrorist groups such as IS are carrying out proxy warfare methods. Based on this problem, the following article will describe the threat of IS terrorism through proxy warfare. The aims of this research to map the threat of IS proxy warfare on Indonesian Millennial Muslims. By using library research methods, this research is expected to have positive implications for the efforts to deradicalize terrorism among Indonesian Millennial Muslims. The conclusion of this research obtained shows that the advancement of communication technology has facilitated IS to spread its terrorism in Indonesia through online magazine propaganda in Bahasa Indonesia. This effort is really a threat for Indonesian Millennial Muslims who are very active in using the internet daily. In this way, IS seeks to influence Indonesian Millennial Muslims to become their proxy in running nikayah operations independently. Thus, the threat of terrorism throughout the world has also evolved from the threat of asymmetric warfare to the threat of proxy warfare, especially to Millennial Muslims.Sampai sejauh ini, terorisme cenderung dianggap menggunakan metode peperangan asimetris daripada peperangan proksi.

Sunan Kalijaga was a Muslim saint in the 15th century AD who taught mystical-philosophical teachings. His role permeates in the Javanese tradition so peaceful values that are embedded in its teachings still be traced and developed. We conducted a literature study on the role, influence and legacy of Sunan Kalijaga. We focused on his philosophical approach to religious thought as oppose to the mystical aspect. Our findings show that Sunan Kalijaga succeeded in using proper choice of words to combine Islamic values and predominant cultural elements (e.g., Hinduism, Buddhism). Therefore, instead of using the Arabic terms, Sunan Kalijaga used many old Javanese and Sanskrit terms commonly used in the 15th-16th century Javanese society. As an implication, Sunan Kalijaga created terms that are less Islamic but loaded with Islamic values. His examination is not only inherited into terms, but also practices, symbols and institutions. Among those Javanese traditions, some of them are critically important in supporting peace-building. This paper reaps the peaceful values of the Sunan teachings in the hope of countering the stream of extreme ideologies that have recently flooded the public. Paper ini bertujuan mengunduh ajaran damai yang ditanam dalam tradisi Jawaterutama yang disemai oleh Sunan Kalijaga. Sunan Kalijaga adalah seorang walipada abad ke 15 M yang memiliki ajaran bersifat mistis-filosofis. Hingga saat ini,pengaruh Sunan Kalijaga sangat terasa dalam tradisi Jawa sehingga nilai-nilaidamai yang ada dalam ajarannya masih dapat ditelusuri dan dikembangkan.Dengan menerapkan studi pustaka, data-data dalam riset ini dikumpulkan darisumber-sumber yang mengkaji Sunan Kalijaga, peran, pengaruh, dan warisanwarisannya.Oleh karena corak pemikiran keagamaan Sunan Kalijaga bersifatmistis-filosofis, maka aspek mistisisme dan pendekatan filsafat juga digunakandalam tulisan ini. Paper ini memaparkan temuan bahwa dalam pratiknya, SunanKalijaga melakukan permainan bahasa yang dengan cara tersebut ia berhasilmemadukan antara nilai-nila i keislaman dengan unsur buda y a dominanyang telah ada sebelumnya yaitu Hindu dan Buddha. Oleh karena itu, alihalihmenggunakan istilah Arab, Sunan Kalijaga justru banyak menggunakanistilah Jawa Kuna dan Sansekerta yang lazim digunakan dalam masyarakat Jawaabad 15-16. Hasil dari upaya tersebut, Sunan Kalijaga menghadirkan istilahistilahyang tampaknya kurang Islami namun sarat muatan nilai-nilai Islam.Ijtihad Sunan Kalijaga tidak hanya terwariskan menjadi istilah-istilah, namunjuga menjadi praktik, simbol bahkan melembaga. Dari beberapa bentuk tradisijawa yang diwariskan Sunan Kalijaga dapat diambil bebera p a nilai pentingyang mendukung iklim damai.

In the context of re-Islamisation process, a Muslim is expected to be a pious one, both from the aspect of belief, knowledge, and practice. The process is characterized by the intensification of Islamic ritual practice and the enforcement of Islamic norms in various aspects of life. Additionally, it is accompanied by the deterioration of animism—as represented by amulets, heirlooms and shamanism—which are popular among abangan communities. Amulet is a peculiar feature in the belief and life system of Javanese society, namely the belief in the magical objects used by the owner to gain power, convenience, and magnificence. In Surakarta, the phenomenon of the decline of ‘magical’ amulets is perceived as the conversion process from abangan to santri.
