Abstract

In the last two decades, the Muslim population in Western Europe has grown in unprecedented ways. At the broader regional level, there are approximately 25 million Muslims living in European Union member states as of 2016, which is estimated to increase to 35 million by 2050. The arrival of Muslims from various countries in the Middle East, Africa, and the Balkans has brought about significant changes and issues socially, economically, as well as politically. Undeniably, some phenomena of discrimination and Islamophobia arise in almost all EU countries in various aspects of public life such as hijâb clothing, building mosques, and housing. Using a qualitative approach and field research, this article explores not only the historical accounts of the presence of Islam in several EU countries, but also the relations between Islam and the state. This research presents several cases of discrimination and Islamophobia and the internal dynamics within the Muslim communities as to the challenges of living in completely different atmosphere. Three countries, namely Austria, Belgium, and Germany are chosen to represent European Union countries. This study contributes to the discourse on the integration of Muslims in European culture and to the way EU countries could involve Muslims in constructing European Islam.

Abstract

The Fajar Nusantara Movement (Gafatar) is an interesting phenomenon in the contemporary era of Indonesia. In the midst of growing rationality and the growth of the world's mainstream religions, Gafatar was born as a new 'religion'. This article discusses Gafatar as a new form of ideology that was born as a result of the ideological crisis experienced by post-Reformation Indonesians. This paper seeks to trace the history of development and the Gafatar teachings used by this organization to recruit new members. Historically, this research was carried out by reviewing existing books and articles and supported by news in the mass media with the perspective of the messianic movement. This article sees that Gafatar is a reincarnation of the Al-Qiyadah Al-Islamiyah and Komar movements in which Ahmad Musaddeq is the central figure. The main factor in the spread of the Gafatar ideology was people's disappointment with Indonesia's economic and political conditions. This is also supported by the ideological crisis factors experienced by some Indonesian people and the weak religious understanding and thirst for spirituality among the middle class. Finally, this article also sees that it is possible to emerge similar movements, so that humanist conflict resolution is needed in order to deal with Gafatar and the schools with certain ideologies that are different from the ideology of the state in the future.

Abstract

Although Islam in Europe is not a new phenomenon, Muslims in Germany are still quite remarkable to study. The dynamic of Muslims both internally and externally is the most interesting thing. Internally, Muslims in Germany who are coming from many different ethnics and races in Asia and Africa is a such a big challenge for Muslims to unite and integrate. Externally, Islam which is historically not a “homegrown” religion in Europe is facing such a big challenge to adjust to such a “new” circumstances. Judeo-Christian has long been the cultural tradition of Germans and Europeans in general. The influx of a number of Muslims from some conflict areas in the Middle East and Africa recently adds another notable phenomenon. This article is trying to portray the development of Islam and Muslims in Germany and the way how they mingle with German counterparts along with the growing of islamophobia in the country. Eventually, this article will also observe some resistance of Muslims in the form of radicalism in the country and their efforts to integrate into Western society.
