Abstract

The arrival of imported religions, Islam and Chistianity in particular, in West Kalimantan creates cultural dialectic and transformation within local indigenous Dayak’s culture and belief.  This article tries to explore on cultural interbreeding between Dayak indigenous culture and Islam in West Kalimantan, Indonesia. The findings have revealed that the interaction between local Dayak culture with variant of Islam creates new cultural identity such as Senganan Dayak in Semabi. This new identity is the consequence for those who convert to Islam as they do not abandon the Dayak identity. However, the massive conversion of Dayak to Islam does not necessarily imply the downgrading of identity from Dayak to Malay; instead they still remain to be Dayak in spite of their conversion to new religion. Another transformation occurred within tradition such as the ritual of “ngantar buah pulang (bring fruit home)”. This Dayak indigenous ritual is replaced with Islamic kind of thanksgiving ritual and replaces the spelling of magic spell with supplication to God Almighty.

Abstract

This article discusses the verses of al-Qu’ran regarding the principles of da'wah social advocacy. Using the hermeneutic approach of JE Jorge Gracia, this research has revealed that da'wah for social advocacy is an important part of Islamic teachings. The principles and scope of Islamic social advocacy are summarized in the spirit of maqashid shariah (the science of ushul fiqh), namely the defense of the basic rights of society in the framework of safeguarding religion, thought, soul, descent and property. In addition, this study also has argued that da'wah acitivist for social advocacy purposes are required to have sensitivity with regard to the efforts to solve social problems as part of fulfilling people's basic rights. Therefore, the integrity and capability of Islamic preachers who are engaged in the field of social advocacy is required.

Abstract

This study reviews the Dayak ethnicity as an exotic ethnicity with a unique interior image. They are accustomed to 'hunting human heads for marriage plots'. Traditions like this are considered as an obligation to avoid danger and disaster, and become a symbol of power and manliness. However, the practice of 'head hunting' only applies when Islam has not touched the theology of the Dayak community with ancestral religion in the past. This study focuses on the struggle of the Dayak Senganan and Malays in the villages of Semabi, Sekadau Hilir, Sekadau, West Kalimantan, which relates to the stigma that, by embracing Islam it means revoking the 'worthiness' identity. To illustrate the transformation of Dayak Wealth identity The methodology used in this study is the ethnographic method. The term 'Wealth' is derived from the word 'right' which means the transition from left to right, namely by embracing Islam. Findings from this study indicate that the key to inter-citizen harmony is supported by the strength of harmony between religious elites and also local cultural elites, and the role of shared awareness to coexist becomes a benchmark of harmonization. The power of harmony built by these two elite figures has produced transformative propaganda based on tradition.
