The terrorists arrested, put in trial, or sentenced, as well as their supporters, have stated that what they did (terror) was jihad fi sabilillah. Struggle with violence and terror has been perceived as a holy jihad, robbery has been considered as fa’i, and self-explosion (suicide bombing) has been believed as syahid (amaliyah al istisyhad). The radicalism of this group of people will keep on growing and developing as long as the ambition of establishing daulah Islamiyah or khilafah ala minhaj al nubuwah is not achieved yet. Nevertheless, radicalism and terrorism views and movements have been possibly changed as their ideologists have shown an openness. Dr. Najih Ibrahim and Dr. Karom Zuhdi’s experience in Egypt is good to be a model on how jihad ideology, such as Al-Jama’ah Al Islamiyah in Egypt, underwent reinterpretation as well as awareness that past struggles have never been successful, and even contraproductive. This kind of change can be copied and developed in Indonesia by creating dialogue opportunities for radical thinkers and moderate Ahlu Sunnah wal Jama’ah. Indonesian Council of Islamic Scholars (MUI) is expected to be a coordinating host for them by activating associational networks as well as muslims’ daily networks.

Prambanan is not a huge reflection of Indonesia. However, this boundary territory of Yogyakarta and Central Java, in addition to the birthplace of party founders, is a competition arena between nationalistic parties and religious parties. The PDI supporters, mostly culture-based muslims compete competitively with those of PAN and PKS, mostly theology-based muslims in the context of Muhammadiyah. Such a competition is embodied through socio-cultural and political practices among the local people. PKS often works together with Muhammadiyah or PAN and vice versa, in political campaign as well as political work. Due to this way, PKS successfully put itself in the second position of the General Election in 2009 and so has made a significant influence on the local people’s fading socio-cultural habits. This paper questions the capacity and existence of religious parties in the local political competition, before and after the General Election in 2009, which gives an impact on the people’s life.

In the relationship between intra and inter-faith believers there is one important problem that has to be faced, namely the establishment of houses of worship based on the joint ministerial decree signed by the Religious Affairs Ministry and the Home Affairs Ministry No. 9 and 8 2006. All religious believers have to face the same problem with different intensities. One of them is, as presented in this study, experienced by Christians with their wellknown diverse denominations. Based on theological and ritual differences, each denomination wishes to establish their own house of worship, which is now hampered by the join ministerial decree 2006. However, in some areas, the believers still uphold local wisdom which then leads to the existence of a church with different denominations. The experience of Imanuel Church Building (CGI) in Maleo Raya Bintaro Jaya, Tangerang Selatan, Banten, is interesting to note. Strange but real, one church with various denominations. How does this happen? There are no difficulties and problems in establishing the house of worship when all the requirements are fulfilled by these denominations and churches. This article provides some wise hints in handling problems of the establishment of houses of worship, a wise gesture which can be regarded as the role model in maintaining harmony.

A dialogue among religions is the basic need in the multicultural life of Indonesia. Without any interfaith dialogue, conflicts and violence in the name of religion are difficult to be avoided. However, the process of dialogue is not an easy task to do. There is a basic need to find the proper methods of dialogue, because a mistake in finding the methods will complicate the process of dialogue, the dialogue can be meaningless and failed. This research demonstrates the failure of a dialogue because of a mistake in finding methods of dialogue, which prevents the dialogue reaching its ends. Based on a case study, this research analyses the aspects that can lead to the failure of a dialogue between Islam (MUI) and JAI in Kuningan. This research is important because the conflicts and violence occurred on the basis of different ideologies between Islam and JAI have not met any solutions despite the engagement of both parties in some dialogues. This research found that the failure in the dialogue between Islam (MUI) and JAI in Kuningan was because of the repressive factors of Islamic groups represented by MUI and the attitude of the government as biased mediator.

The religious social organization, Wahdah Islamiyah (WI), is a local Islamic movement with its headquarters in Makassar. It has been growing rapidly with its main activities in da’wah (teaching dissemination) and education. Through qualitative approach, WI can be considered as a radical concept due to its strict adherence to Qur’an and Sunnah in line with asalafusshalih conception, but is friendly with its surroundings and has never developed any worrying da’wah (teaching dissemination) like attacking and mocking other groups in public lectures or its self-managed radio. All of the members and supporters recognize misleading teachings through a long-term learning process. WI thoughtfully realizes that the main obstruction in da’wah is poor public communication with other Islamic groups of people who have different interpretations, conceptions, and movements. Improving the communication can create a better understanding and might bring about some help from others. WI prohibits any opposition to the government as long as the government doesn’t prohibit muslims from practicing their teachings. WI believes that jihad is the highest level of a muslim’s conviction, not referring to terrorism, but a pure sincerity in practicing the religious teachings. War is only one of the jihad actions. Jihad in war is obligatory when the context exists.

The tradition of pilgrimage at the tomb of the Prince Samudra, Mount Kemukus, Sragen in Central Java is one form of Islamic Java asceticism interesting to talk about, because it is always associated with seeking pesugihan ritual (ritual to seek wealth unseen) through deviant sex. Departing from the reality of commodification of ritual Islamic asceticism on Mount Kemukus, the following study examine the effects of market expansion in tourism and prostitution behind tradition of pilgrimage on Mount Kemukus. In the history from the eighties, the expansion of the tourism market and prostitution cause ngalap berkah ritual (ritual to get blessing) which was part of the expression, likely to cause a deviation the myth “sex rituals” behind the pilgrimage activities. As a result, the practice of Islamic Java asceticism is experiencing commoditization, as well as uprooted from cultural roots and Islamic Java Faith. The study shows that the existence of Islamic Java asceticism on Mount Kemukus characterized by the practice of ritual sex can be portrayed as a symptom of the doctrine of asceticism deviation, both in the Hindu, Buddhist, and Islamic. The practice is increasingly strong deviation, because the effect of the expansion of the tourism market, especially when it makes “sex” as a commodity for capital accumulation. Images of sex ritual tradition of pilgrimage to the tomb of Prince Samudra, Mount Kemukus it has strengthened its assumptions about the nature of Islamic Java asceticism is ambiguous. On the one hand, the pilgrims perform the practice of asceticism to unite with Good, seek the path of God, but on the other hand the practice of Islamic Java asceticism also aims to achieve pleasure and worldly desires such as wealth, prestige, and other worldly success.

This research aims at studying the identity construction in Kalang, the identity formation of Islam-Kalang, and finally identity politics of the social and cultural life in Kalang. This research applies symbolic interaction and ethnographic approach because the study covers interpreting symbols. This research found that the identity attached to a people of Kalang was their blood identity. This identity affirms through the instrument of culture of Kalang, such as performing sayud, the ceremony of Obong, Gegalungan and the like. Throughout the history, the identity of Kalang had experienced some dynamics. Colonisation (Islam) occurred since the era of Demak (15th century). Despite resistance and difficult adaptation, they, eventually, accepted Islam. Islam becomes one of the most important identities, especially since 1966 when the government decided to ask its citizens to choose one of the official religions. The santri movement has been developed significantly in Sendangdawuhan due to the government political policy providing supportive space for the process of Islamisation since the 1990s. There have been some tendencies for fading the identity of Kalang due to the presence of Islam which then led to the presence of resistance as the political strategy to maintain their identity. The cosmological system in Kalang binding descendants of Kalang becomes the instrument of “defence” that can help people of Kalang to preserve their authentic identity. The other forms of resistance can be seen through the way they respect the spirit and adapt it to Islamic aspects through combined folklore between Islam and Kalang.

Front Umat Islam (FUI) is one of religious social movements in West Java that is active in conducting many mass mobilizations to oppose matters that are considered deviating from Islamic teachings. Based on a qualitative approach, it is understood that the FUI can be regarded as a deviant social movement due to its approach in forcing the will of other believers whom they regard as defaming religion (Islam). However, their ideological and national concepts are moderate; politically they do not offer radical alternative to the current socio-political reality, FUI still respects the four pillars of Indonesian nationality, namely Pancasila, NKRI, UUD 1945, and Bhineka Tunggal Ika. Referring to the theory of social movement, as a movement that has a political objective and social capital, the activities of FUI are acceptable. FUI conducts social negotiation to realize social order in public sphere, namely Bandung which is religious.
