Abstract

The focus of this paper is to explain myth and religion in the traditional Dayak community's view of life. Myths and religious systems in the life of the Dayak community have a fundamental role, which is the philosophy of life. Myths and religious systems form the basis of their social and cultural life. Myths and religious systems not only have a decisive role in the life of the Dayak community, but are also an expression of their way of being in this world. This paper aims to describe and analyze the elements of culture, as well as to provide an anthropological-philosophical contribution regarding ancient myths and religions in the Dayak community's view of life. The author uses a descriptive qualitative method that produces data in the form of words and in writing or verbally from the people and observed behavior. As for the findings of this paper, that ancient myths and religions are still alive and have no small influence in today's modern society. The introduction of ancient traditional societies enriches the consciousness of modern humans to know themselves better. Modern humans draw a variety of ancient "legacy", including "spiritual heritage" which continues to live in the layers of the human psyche and appears in various forms in modern society today.

Abstract

The understanding of the Qur'an and Hadith regarding music is still a matter of debate. Some scholars still insist that music is haram, on the other hand there are also scholars who say music is halal as long as it is still within positive limits. Therefore, the researcher conducted a textual analysis between Halal and Haram Islamic Music based on the Al-Quran and Hadith. This research was conducted with read, study, and analyze various existing literature, in the form of the Qur'an, hadith, and research results. By using a qualitative research approach, namely systematic research used to study or research an object on a natural setting without any manipulation in it and without there is a hypothesis test. The result of interpreting the hadith that prohibits music, textually will produce formative understanding and practice. That is, if you only rely on a hadith whose editorial forbids music, then enjoying music is haraam. However, in this case, the textual meaning cannot be practiced just like that because there are hadiths with other editors that allow music to be played. Thus, intertextual interpretation should not be carried out to find the message intended by the Prophet Muhammad. with the hadith. With intertextual meaning, it has a slight impact on extracting with contextual meaning, it results that substantially playing music is not an activity that is prohibited by the Prophet Muhammad SAW.

Cultural issues have become a hot topic of discussion in today's society. The usage of batik and the identity should the young people to experience several acculturation problems. This study tries to explain Pekalongan's identity as a city of batik as well as the significance in it. With the use of literature reviews, analyses, and theories supporting acculturation and batik identity, the method of library research is applied to investigate field data. The results revealed that Pekalongan City is a city of batik, that it is actually known as The World City of batik, and that the current batik designs explain what acculturation and diversity of traits entail. This region is home to six distinct types of batik: Batik jlamprang, which conveys the idea that Muslim culture still upholds each other's friendships and lives in harmony; cement batik, which represents a life that can expand, grow, and blossom into a morewealthy life. Bright moon batik This motif's meaning is that everything will always turn out well or perfectly when it should; Seven different types of batik are a representation of the fusion of Javanese and Chinese cultures. The Seven Shapes motif, which means a manifestation of the many abilities of creatures that are united in themselves, demonstrates the wealth of the Pekalongan region. Batik Liong, which means a symbol of power, and Sawat Batik, which means to safeguard. It is clear that the city of Pekalongan has a pluralistic acculturation character based on the local motifs.

Abstract

Kloso is a type of local wisdom in the form of woven pandan leaves that can be used as a learning medium to make it easier for students to understand physics concepts. The author realizes that this research, especially the exploration of physics concepts in local wisdom, has limitations. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out activities to explore the concepts of physics and local wisdom in each process of making Kloso in. This study aims to explore and analyze the physics concepts contained in each stage of making Kloso. This research is a qualitative research using data triangulation methods: interview, observation, and literature studies. The results showed that there was a correlation between Kloso’s making stage and physics concept. The physics concepts contained in Kloso such as energy, momentum, parabolic motion, Newton's Laws, pressure, and heat changes. Thus, this local wisdom can be used as a medium of learning, especially in the field of physics, to increase the understanding of physics that is integrated into ethnoscience (Ethno-physics), a science that is actually implemented in every activity of daily life.

Abstract

This article explores the development and the dynamics of pesantren in Banten, a province located in the westernmost of Java. Using historical and anthropological data, I explore the development and dynamics of pesantren. I contend that some pesantrens in Banten not only function as religious educational institution but also to some extent function as political instruments in which the kyais or the leader of the pesantren nurture their Islamic views and interpretations based on their Islamic organization’s interests and agenda. Furthermore, I argue that pesantren in Banten based on their political view has developed into two main categories among others the Islamist dan non Islamist pesantrens that in short or longer period will pave the way to the existence of more plural views and religious authority for Bantenese as well as Indonesian Muslims.
