Wydziały teologiczne na Uniwersytecie Warszawskim 1918–1939

There were two theological faculties at the University of Warsaw: the Faculty of Catholic Theology and the Faculty of Evangelical Theology. There was also the Seminary of Orthodox Theology. Such a solution was not present at other Polish interwar state universities, where only faculties of Catholic theology were established (apart from the University of Poznań, where such a faculty did not come into existence). The Faculty of Catholic Theology at the University of Warsaw was intended only for graduates from theological seminaries, while at the other state universities, the laity of both sexes was also eligible to apply. Compared to the entire University of Warsaw, its theological faculties were the smallest structures regarding the number of students and researchers. The involvement of the staff in scientific work varied considerably, but the approach to lecturing was usually very competent. The student’s diligence was not at a high level. A vast majority of students did not graduate from the university on time, though this was true for most disciplines at all universities. The relations between the two theological faculties at the University of Warsaw were not painless. Also, the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Public Education leaned towards combining all three theological structures of the University of Warsaw into one, which eventually did not materialize, and the faculties remained separate entities until the outbreak of World War II.

TINJAUAN HUKUM ISLAM TENTANG PRAKTIK JASA WALI NIKAH SIRRI DI BEKASI

Marriage is a sacred ritual that religious and state laws must legalize. Most people want marriage to be a joyous occasion and a way to publicize their status as husband and wife. However, some people keep their marriages secret. In general, Nikah Sirri celebrates a marriage according to Islamic religious rules. However, many things prevent it from being legally recorded by the authorities, in this case, the government, represented by the Ministry of Religious Affairs. This research aims to investigate providers of marriage guardian services in siri marriages that have developed in the community through social media. One of these providers can be found on the website ustadz.my.id/jasa-nikah-siri-bekasi, which offers various services related to siri marriages. This research uses qualitative methods and is centered on empirical research. This research uses a socio-legal approach, a broad social science methodological approach. as the Wali Nikah in Sirri Nikah Services. This study conducted the data collection method in two stages: observation and documentation. The study found that because there is an element of gharar or uncertainty, the practice of providing a marriage guardian in a sirri marriage through a website whose address is ustadz.my.id/jasa-nikah-siri-bekasi is not justified by Islamic legal review. Thus, this element of gharar hinders the practice of providing marriage guardians in sirri marriages. This is in line with the prohibition of the prophet Muhammad to avoid buying and selling gharar.

DIMENSI KOMODIFIKASI MUSHAF ALQURAN

One of the ways to maintain the authenticity of the Quran now is by printing and publishing official mushaf, which is regulated through a decree of the Minister of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia. And the phenomenon of industrialization has spread to various aspects of life, even religion. The Quran is a religious symbol that has experienced the most industrialization process through the Quran printing process. Therefore, this article aims to analyze the extent of the commodification of the Quran in Indonesia so that the Mushaf becomes a commodity. Using a qualitative method and descriptive-analytical techniques with the lens of religious commodification, this paper finds that the market for Quran copies in the contemporary era is those who are technologically literate. Thus, Quran copies are printed on a large scale and marketed in offline and online stores with the aim of meeting people's needs for the Quran. Therefore, the commodification process is based on the people's need for the Quran which is increasing from time to time, and is supported by government policies related to the printing of the Quran copies. Even though the Quran copies are printed without using attachments and additional features but purely the text of the Quran, the copies will still become commodities. Due to the increasing demand of the community for the Mushaf and becoming a business field for Mushaf printing, it results in a process of production by producers and consumption by consumers, which then results in buying and selling transactions of Quran copies. And in the end there was a dimension of commodification in the manuscripts of the Koran.

Quo Vadis Modern Salafism: Re-Questioning Salafi's Moderation Value on Social Media

This study examines the value of religious moderation in the Salafi movement on social media in Indonesia. The label of radical movement attached to the Salafi group has been considered a threat to the country's integrity. Their propaganda and schooling, especially on social media, contain some content that will cause social separation. The government mainstreams the campaign for religious moderation to counter radicalism. Hence, several organizations have been dissolved by the government because they are considered dangerous. However, the question is whether all groups linked to Salafi are hazardous and threaten the country's integrity. This article will solve this question using qualitative descriptive research. This research is equipped with a content analysis method. The results found three variants of the Salafi group spread in social media. The three variants are purist, haraki, and jihadist. The three variants have their style, even though purificating Islamic thought is the starting point of their agenda. By referring to the religious moderation indicators by the Ministry of Religious Affairs (nationalism, tolerance, non-violence, and accommodative to local culture), it can be concluded that: First, not all Salafi groups commit acts of violence; Second, not all Salafi groups are anti-nationalism; Third, several Salafi groups have moderate values in their teachings even though they can not be considered as moderate groups.

Sejarah Branding Kuliner Halal di Kota Medan, 2003-2019

The concern surrounding halal and haram products is a focal point for legal scholars and historians, sparking ongoing debates within various societal sectors. This study delves into the historical evolution of halal branding within the culinary industry in Medan. Historical methods and qualitative approaches, encompassing literature reviews, observations, interviews, and documentation, were employed to gather data. Findings emphasize the pivotal role of halal branding in ensuring the safety, comfort, and availability of halal products, impacting the well-being of a diverse population. The journey began in 1976 with the introduction of a logo signifying the presence of pork, subsequently gaining momentum in 1988 when researchers from the University of Brawijaya Faculty of Enforcement identified food products suspected of pork content. A year later, the Indonesian Ulema Council (Majelis Ulama Indonesia - MUI) established the Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Assessment Institute (LPPOM) to oversee halal certification. The enactment of the Halal Product Assurance Law (UUJPH) in late 2014 mandated that all products circulating within Indonesia must hold halal certification, coinciding with the establishment of the Halal Product Assurance Agency (BPJPH) under the Ministry of Religious Affairs.

The Regulation Model of Public Services Based on The Integrity Zone in The Religious Higher Education in Indonesia

Since 2020, Indonesian Ministry of Religious Affairs commits to build the integrity zone in all its work units. Universitas Islam Negeri Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang has been pointed to be the pilot project of The Integrity Zone Establishment in 2020 under the Ministry of Religious Affairs’ supervision. The emerged problem is that there is no Minimum Service Standard (MSS) as the requirement of integrity zone made by rector. This is a juridical-empirical study by applying qualitative approach. The primary data were from interview and Focus Group Discussion with structural team and academic staff who are directly involved in services in the said university. The FGD results reveal that the MSS is made based on The Organization and Work Procedures of UIN Malang, and that it is related to services in Tri Dharma both academic and non-academic. The MSS of UIN Malang must refer to Permen PAN-RB No. 10 of 2019 on the amendment to Permen PAN-RB No. 52 of 2014 concerning The Guidelines to Establish an Integrity Zone towards a Corruption Free Area and a Clean and Serving Bureaucratic Area in a Government Institution. The service regulation is also made based on international standard ISO 37001: 2016 as an anti-bribery management system that is able to provide access for complaint on bribery. This article is expected to be the policy reference for services in the State Religious Higher Education in Indonesia which follows the service standard of the integrity zone and international standard so they can lessen the corruption and collusion in the serving process.

IMPLEMENTATION OF PROFESSIONAL ZAKAT FOR STATE CIVIL SERVANTS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF MAQASID AL-SHARIA

The primary focus of this qualitative research is to examine the implementation of professional zakat for Civil Servants (ASN) in Sinjai Regency from the perspective of Maqāṣid Al-Syarī’ah, with BAZNAS as a case study. The research breaks down this central inquiry into specific sub-problems, aiming to analyze the alignment of Maqāṣid Al-Syarī’ah principles with the execution of professional zakat for ASN in Sinjai Regency. Data for the study is primarily sourced from key individuals, including the Chairperson and Vice Chairpersons of BAZNAS in Sinjai Regency, zakat payers, the Head of Zakat and Waqf Implementation at the Ministry of Religious Affairs in Sinjai Regency, the Head of the Regional Finance and Asset Agency, and the Head of the Regional Personnel and Human Resource Development Agency in Sinjai Regency. Data is collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and the analysis is structured into stages of data collection, reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The research reveals that professional zakat management for ASN by BAZNAS in Sinjai Regency is conducted even without clear local regulations, in coordination with various government entities. The distribution and utilization of zakat adhere to five programs, yet its alignment with Maqāṣid Al-Syarī’ah is hindered by various obstacles in its application for civil servants in Sinjai Regency.

The data was collected through a questionnaire using Google Forms, and the data analysis technique used was SEM. The results of the model testing were not fit, so they cannot be used to draw conclusions about the population. However, all the minor hypotheses were accepted. The higher the exogenous variable, the higher the endogenous variable, both directly and indirectly, with ethical leadership acting as a good mediator. Conscientiousness was found to be the most influential exogenous variable, while ethical behavior was the weakest.

KH Saifudin Zuhri considered Presidential Decree No. 1/PNPS/1965 necessary after political agitation carried out by the PKI which was considered to be agitating for atheism in order to undermine the credibility of religion and religious groups, The spirit of victory of the communists from China and Vietnam, the Bangkuning incident, the Rat Meat Propaganda incident, as well as other events that finally inspired him to encourage Sukarno as the Great Leader of the Revolution who had absolute authority gave birth to Presidential Decree Number 1 of 1965 concerning the Prevention of Abuse and / or Blasphemy.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Konstruksi Wacana Moderasi Beragama di Ruang Digital (Studi Kasus Konten Bertema Toleransi di Media Sosial Youtube)

This article will analyze the construction of religious moderation through various digital channels on YouTube. YouTube is the most popular social media platform in Indonesia, with 94% of social media users choosing to access YouTube compared to other social media platforms, based on the 2022 Populix survey. While religious moderation has been politically legitimized through the Ministry of Religious Affairs and various institutional policies, it often faces opposition from opposing groups referred to as intolerant and radical ideologies, causing religion to be seen in two completely different frames: as a weapon of control that promotes diversity, and on the opposing side, as a counter attack for delegitimize power. Therefore, it is interesting to examine the construction of religious moderation through the YouTube social media platform. Framing analysis is chosen to gain a clearer understanding of the structure of religious moderation as a message intentionally constructed for the public. There are 3 YouTube channels examined: Deddy Corbuzier, Noice, and Jeda Nulis, based on the number of viewers, subscribers, and comments on each account. Based on the analysis, several frames are constructed: 1) the younger generation and their respect for the community and religion; 2) different but together; and 3) Indonesia as a shared home

Under the Veil of Tolerance: Critics on Tolerant City Index

Religious tolerance in Indonesia has become phenomenal in the last decades after Setara Institute was established alongside other NGOs such as Wahid Foundation. There is an annual index of tolerant and intolerant cities in Indonesia conducted by the Setara Institute. Other religious indexes are also mentioned, such as the index of Freedom of Religion and Belief (FORB) by Wahid Foundation and the Religious Harmony index by the Ministry of Religious Affairs. This index shows the interreligious relations within society and measures tolerance from the FORB index. To some extent, this index led to the competition of cities in Indonesia to be the most tolerant. This research examines the problem within the index from a philosophical perspective. Furthermore, the effect of the religious tolerance index on local government policies and everyday engagement in society will be addressed. This research uses a qualitative analysis method and collects data through library research. This research shows some problems in the index, such as binary opposition and generalized intolerant action with religious motives. In addition, the tolerance tends to move into pragmatic tolerance instead of mutual tolerance after the index emerges.

Tahfidzul Qur'an di Pondok Pesantren Moderen Ainul Yaqin Batagak Kecamatan Sungai Pua Kabupaten Agam

This article discusses the Tahfidzul Quran at the Ainul Yaqin Batagak Modern Islamic Boarding School, Sungai Pua District, Agam Regency. In this study, researchers used a form of qualitative research. Researchers used interview techniques, documentation, and observation. The data collected was then analyzed using qualitative analysis techniques. From the research that the author did, it can be concluded that, Tahfidzul quran in the modern pesantren ainul yaqin batagak which has been established for approximately 14 years is to print a thousand tahfidzul quran according to the program launched by the Ministry of Religious Affairs. The time of tahfidzul quran in the modern pesantren ainul yaqin batagak is held starting from 06.55-07.30 WIB. The activity is carried out in each class which is directly guided by the group leader. In this case there is no special management but the memorization is left to the students both in depositing and technique. The material given to students is evenly distributed, namely starting from grades 7-12 must complete memorization of Surah al-Baqarah. The method of tahfidzul quran given to students is not determined, but rather given freedom to students to choose. The evaluation of tahfidzul quran is carried out in 3 stages, the first through the group leader once a week, the second through the coach once a month, and once a semester before the exam is held. The obstacles faced during tahfidzul quran are related to the narrow time and student discipline.

The Interaction of Fiqh and Science in the Dynamics of Determining the Beginning of the Hijri Month in Indonesia

The determination of the onset of the Hijri month in Indonesia has frequently sparked controversy, especially among prominent Islamic organizations such as Nahdlatul Ulama and Muhammadiyah, as well as governmental entities like the Ministry of Religious Affairs. This contention arises from the diverse methods and criteria they adopt for the sighting of the hilāl (new crescent Moon) to mark the beginning of the Hijri month. This article delves into the interplay between fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) and astronomy in determining the start of the Hijri month within the Indonesian context. Employing literature research with a scientific-cum-doctrinal approach, the article highlights three interactions between fiqh and science. Firstly, astronomy serves as a translator of jurisprudential concepts into empirical criteria for determining the beginning of the Hijri month. It underscores the interdependence of these two domains in decision-making rooted in religious beliefs and empirical knowledge. Secondly, the dynamic process of determining the start of the Hijri month in Indonesia reveals a complex interplay between fiqh and science, with varying viewpoints among religious scholars and scientific researchers regarding the criteria for moon sighting. Lastly, fiqh plays a role in legitimizing astronomy in the rukyah al-hilāl (crescent moon sightings) process through testimonies, wherein scholars of Islamic jurisprudence establish criteria for witnesses and use oaths to validate empirical scientific evidence supporting lunar visibility. This article offers valuable insights into the intricate relationship between fiqh and science in determining the start of the Hijri month in Indonesia.

Structure of Islamic Boarding School Curriculum (A Case Study at Islamic Center Bin Baz Boarding School in Yogyakarta)

A systematic curriculum is one of the key factors in the success of organizing all activities in Islamic boarding schools. Therefore, the researcher is interested in studying the curriculum system at Pondok Pesantren Islamic Center Bin Baz. This research is qualitative in nature and falls under the category of field research. The data collection methods used include interviews, documentation, and observation. The research findings reveal the systematic nature of the curriculum in Islamic Center Bin Baz. The development of the curriculum at ICBB is guided by the vision and mission of the foundation and its articles of association as the organizing body. The Islamic boarding school curriculum is designed with a 24-hour education pattern, which encompasses all student activities from waking up to going to bed, with a structured and well-directed curriculum content. The curriculum for teaching and learning activities at ICBB refers to government guidelines, particularly those provided by the Ministry of Religious Affairs (Kemenag), as well as the Islamic boarding school curriculum. ICBB organizes the allocation of duties for guiding the students into eight divisions, namely: Teaching and Learning (KBM), Student Life (residential, cleanliness, and security), Memorization of the Quran (tahfidz), Language, Worship, Spiritual Development (tarbiyah), Environmental Beauty and Health (cleanliness and health, as well as gardening), and Facilities and Infrastructure. The implementation of the Islamic boarding school curriculum, especially in the girls' dormitory, involves each division having a program that is divided into two categories: annual programs and semester programs. Semester programs are further divided into four types, including daily, weekly, monthly, and semester-long programs. These programs involve students, female teachers (ustadzah), and supervisors (musyrifah). ICBB designs its Islamic boarding school curriculum to be flexible and adaptable, catering to the needs and conditions in the field. In the evaluation phase, Pondok Pesantren Islamic Center Bin Baz conducts evaluations for each division's work programs at the end of each year and at each educational level.

Measuring Job Satisfaction of Indonesian Secondary School English Language Teachers Before and During the Pandemic: A Mixed-Methods Study

A mixed-methods sequential explanatory study was conducted in Indonesia to measure levels of job satisfaction among 326 secondary school English-as-a-Foreign-Language (EFL) teachers before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim was to identify significant differences in relation to gender, career stage, school location, school status, and school affiliation, and to establish which factors contributed most to job satisfaction. In the quantitative stage, the results revealed that job satisfaction both before and during the pandemic was generally high. With respect to gender, male teachers were more satisfied than their female counterparts. In terms of career stage, levels of job satisfaction varied before and during the pandemic, with significant differences in terms of pay, promotion, security, and professional development. Teachers working in state schools were more satisfied with their pay and security than teachers in private schools. Furthermore, teachers working in schools under the Ministry of Education were more satisfied with pay and security than those working under the Ministry of Religious Affairs. No significant differences in job satisfaction were identified with respect to school location. The qualitative stage partially supported the quantitative findings, with working conditions, col-leagues, professional development, and pay identified as enhancing job satisfaction.

Why Does Women's Underrepresentation Transpire in the Leadership of Indonesian State Islamic Universities?

Underrepresentation of women still occurs in the top-level management of higher education, including in State Islamic Higher Education (SIHE/PTKIN) in Indonesia, a country with the largest Muslim population in the world. This study aims to reveal the portrait of women's underrepresentation in the top-level management of SIHE, the determinant factors that cause the underrepresentation of women in the top-level management of SIHE, and the policies that need to be taken in response to the underrepresentation of women in top-level management of SIHE. A qualitative approach was chosen for this study by collecting data using interviews and document reviews. It objectively shows the inequality between women and men in top-level management. Men still dominate strategic positions such as rector, vice-rector, and dean. This inequity is caused by qualification barriers of female lecturers, patriarchal culture, and gender-biased religious understanding. This inequity has an impact on the slow realization of gender-responsive campuses. Thus, through the Ministry of Religious Affairs, the Government must make affirmative policies to accelerate women's representation at the management level of SIHE so that more women occupy the positions of rector, vice-rector, and dean.

MANAGEMENT OF ISLAMIC EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS BASED ON RELIGIOUS MODERATION

Islamic educational institutions must have excellent human resources, which are not only limited to human resources from their own country, but also must be able to compete with human resources from foreign countries. Improving the management of Islamic educational institutions is a must for the leaders of Islamic educational institutions to face more complex changes in the future. The purpose of writing this policy paper is to encourage the inception of a foundation for the management of Islamic education institutions based on religious moderation to create a moderation in students' religious attitudes. This policy paper is based on the results of research conducted by the Education Research Team in 2022. This research uses a qualitative method with a literature review approach. The management of Islamic educational institutions at the tertiary level based on religious moderation needs to be directed to achieve the strategic plan of the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia. The recommended alternative policies are first, the Ministry of Religious Affairs needs to formulate a new policy regarding operational guidelines for the management of Islamic education institutions at the elementary, secondary, and tertiary levels based on religious moderation in detail. Second, the Ministry of Religious Affairs needs to formulate a new policy in collaboration with related educational institutions in the framework of implementing religious moderation in institutional management.
