Abstract

This study explores the Salafi-Wahabi movement's typology of hadith understanding and its consequences for Islamic law. This qualitative study employs the identity politics theory and the hadith understanding theory. Identity politics is utilized to assess the Salafi movement, and the concept of hadith understanding is used to examine different understandings of hadith. This study found that Salafi developed as a response to the behavior of bid’ah (innovation in religion), currents of syncretism, pluralism, liberalism, and the legitimating influence of Shia. The Salafi believes that Islamic organizations in Indonesia have failed to respond and have even been dissolved by the current situation, leading Muslims to stray away from hadith. Their identity politics is defined through numerous projects, including returning to Quran and sunnah slogans, putting on robes (long garments for both men and women), beards, and kuniyah. This is a way for them to justify their existence to oppose conventional identities. This study contends that the Salafi group's textual understanding of hadith promotes rigid Islamic law, which leads to societal conflict. As a result, the government and religious institutions should work together to develop Washatiyah Islam as a counter-ideology and discourse. Abstrak: Pada umumnya poligami ulama Madura dilakukan secara sewenang-wenang dan siri (tidak dicatat oleh negara), yang mendatangkan penderitaaan dan diskriminasi yang sangat merugikan perempuan. Sebaliknya dalam fenomena tertentu, terdapat ulama Madura yang memiliki perilaku unik dalam membangun keluarga poligami sehingga mendatangkan kenyamanan dan keharmonisan dalam rumah tangga. Penelitian ini menelaah praktik poligami yang dilakukan oleh ulama Madura dan faktor yang mempengaruhi poligami tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan sumber data primernya adalah tiga keluarga ulama Madura yang memiliki keunikan dalam membagun rumah tangga poligamis. Hasil penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa terdapat dua model poligami yang dilakukan oleh ulama Madura, yaitu poligami yang dilakukan atas kehendak suami dengan persetujuan para istri dan poligami yang dilakukan atas inisiatif para istri dengan mendapatkan persetujuan suami. Poligami ulama Madura dipengaruhi oleh faktor kebutuhan seksual dan otoritas ulama Madura, serta budaya hidup masyarakat Madura yang taat beragama dan cenderung berlebihan dalam mengkultus ulamanya.
