Ecopesantren As Empowering Boarding Boarding Communities Through Land Conversion Movement

The problem of limited access to fulfill food needs, especially for pesantren communities during the COVID-19 pandemic, led Pondok Pesantren Hajar Aswad, Sunan Pandanaran Foundation to initiate a land conversion movement to promote food security. With the concept of greenhouses, empty land is converted into food source land by implementing the aquaponic cultivation method. This research aims to understand how the ecopesantren program can empower the pesantren community (santri, pesantren residents, surrounding communities) through land conversion movements, as well as a new form of social movement. This research uses a qualitative method with a case study research type. The results of this study show that (1) the application of the greenhouse method as a form of conversion of vacant land by pesantren has succeeded in realizing food security and economic independence. (2) the pesantren community participates in each other and has the same role in its management. (3) This management has a socio-ecological impact, namely increasing social awareness and improving the economy of the pesantren community, as well as contributing to the welfare and preservation of the surrounding environment. This shows that the pesantren community is empowered through the ecopesantren program, one of which utilizes the land by carrying out the movement to convert vacant land into greenhouses using the aquaponics system to support food security and encourage economic independence in the pesantren community.

Surveilans Berbasis Santri : Strategi Meningkatkan Derajat Kesehatan di Pondok Pesantren

Community-based surveillance is a health effort to identify health problems/cases carried out by the community, which is then addressed by the community with the support of healthcare workers. This activity is one of the self-reliance patterns instilled in the community. Indonesia has more than 20,000 pesantrens as formal educational institutions. Unhealthy environments and inadequate facilities have led to various infectious diseases. Efforts to examine and treat infectious diseases have been carried out by pesantrens, but the problem persists due to unhealthy behavior. Health monitoring and responsibility from pesantren residents are necessary to improve health conditions in pesantrens. Based on this issue, community-based surveillance needs to be implemented in pesantrens. Empowering pesantren communities is a process to increase knowledge, awareness, and skills so that they can actively participate in efforts to prevent and control diseases through an educative and participatory approach while considering potential needs and local socio-cultural aspects. Therefore, a trained Santri-based Surveillance needs to be formed with the responsibility of health monitoring in pesantrens, in the hope of creating a healthy pesantren. Santri-based surveillance is part of community empowerment in pesantren areas

Pembacaan Dzikir Ratib Al-Attas dan Al-Haddad di Pesantren Modern Al-Qur’an Pekalongan: Studi Living Qur’an

Living Qur'an research on the practice of dhikr ratib Al-Attas and Al-Haddad in Pondok Pesantren Modern Al-Qur'an Buaran Pekalongan shows the integration of the Qur'an in the daily routine of Muslims. Anthropological qualitative research explores the meaning of dhikr in this tradition. Primary data were obtained through online interviews and observations with Santri and administrators. The results show that the dhikr routine is directed by K.H. Abdul Aziz al-Hafidz and is considered an act of worship, a companion to religious learning, and a means of tranquility. In Talal Asad's theoretical framework, the dhikr tradition is the result of the interaction of religion and culture, becoming the identity of the pesantren. The conclusion shows that dhikr in this pesantren is not only an act of worship but also part of the educational objectives, especially the memorization of the Qur'an. This study provides an in-depth insight into the livelihood of the Qur'an in pesantren communities.

Dinamika Radikalisme di Pesantren: Tinjauan terhadap Isu dan Tantangan

Islamic boarding schools, known as pesantren, play a crucial role as traditional Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia and have been a focal point in discussions surrounding radicalism. This research aims to uncover the dynamics of radicalism that may occur within the pesantren environment and analyze the contributing factors to the spread of radical ideologies among the students. The research methodology employs a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including interviews, observations, and content analysis of relevant literature. The findings indicate that while pesantren play a significant role in shaping Islamic character and identity, they are also susceptible to the influence of radical ideologies. Factors such as economic inequality, social dissatisfaction, and a lack of inclusive education contribute to the emergence of radical attitudes among the students. Addressing the challenge of radicalism in pesantren involves enhancing understanding of moderate Islamic teachings, strengthening critical education, and fostering collaboration among the government, society, and pesantren. Prevention efforts should also focus on improving the well-being of pesantren, enhancing teacher capacity, and implementing inclusive educational approaches to minimize the potential for radicalization within pesantren communities. This research contributes to a better understanding of radicalism issues in pesantren and provides a foundation for the development of holistic and sustainable policies and prevention programs.

Analysis of Syariahpreneurship Character Strengthening Strategy at Nahdlatul Ulum Soreang Islamic Boarding School (Pesantren) Maros DistrictAnalysis of Syariahpreneurship Character Strengthening Strategy at Nahdlatul Ulum Soreang Islamic Boarding School (

Islamic financial institutions in Indonesia have experienced very rapid development and progress in the last decade. This development has occurred in almost all Islamic financial institutions, such as Islamic banking, Islamic insurance, Islamic capital markets, Islamic mutual funds, Islamic bonds, Islamic pawnshops, and Baitul Mal wa Tamwil (BMT). This condition is certainly an opportunity and a challenge that all educational institutions must be able to capture and respond positively to, including educational institutions with Indonesian characteristics called pesantren. Strengthening the character of Syariahprenuership is an urgent strategy to get attention in a pesantren Islamic educational institution. With a very large population of pesantren in Indonesia, when the students get the strengthening of the Syariah-prenuership character, they will certainly be more prepared to be able to take part to contribute to the existing dynamics and religious feel. The role of this pesantren is also very large and important in preparing students to be able to exist in their daily lives both within the pesantren and later when interacting in the environment outside the pesantren after completion. The students who live in pesantren are always interacting, communicating, and in contact with all the internal pesantren communities. Automatically strengthening the character of syariahprenuership, which has been running and in process, of course, can be held captive with the naked eye. The strategy to strengthen the syariahprenuership character for students is certainly something that must be known, especially for the internal managers of Islamic boarding schools and society in general. Based on the reason that there is no scientifically concrete data regarding the analysis of strategies to strengthen the character of syariahprenuership in pesantren, this is what makes researchers interested in researching this phenomenon. The purpose of this study was to analyze strategies to strengthen the character of syariahpreneurship students at the Nahdlatul Ulum Soreang pesantren, Maros Regency. This research is a qualitative research using a phenomenological approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data were analyzed using categorization.

Food Management in Pesantren based on Integrated Farm Education and Entrepreneurship

Food is one of many global challenges that require significant attention. Indonesia, with the majority Muslim population and the largest number of pesantren in the world, has become the second biggest food contributor in the world. It is inconsistent with the principles of Islam. This research is concerned with the implementation of an integrative approach to food management in pesantren through the integration of agriculture and entrepreneurship education. Pesantren, as a self-sustaining community, provides an ideal medium to explore sustainable practices. This research is a qualitative case using the triangulation method with both observation and documentation techniques. This research involves the implementation of a structured education program within the Pesantren that combines agricultural practices and entrepreneurial skills. The results highlighted that by integrating agriculture and entrepreneurship education, pesantren communities significantly contributed to reducing the number of food. The results of this research demonstrate the effectiveness of integrating agriculture and entrepreneurship education in reduction, honing skills, and fostering a sense of responsibility and sustainable practices among residents. The findings emphasize the importance of integrating education and entrepreneurship for holistic food management in Pesantren. The discussion delved into the social, economic, and environmental implications, highlighting the potential for scalability and adaptation in other similar settings. This integrative approach does more than solve the food problem; instead, it also contributes to developing people skills and sustaining the community in Pesantren.

IMPLEMENTATION OF COUNTER-RADICALISATION IN PESANTREN SALAFIYAH SYAFI'IYAH OF BANUROJA GORONTALO

<p><em>This study describes and evaluates how the Pesantren (the Islamic Boarding School) Salafiyah Syafi'iyah of Gorontalo has fostered a movement away from radicalism among its students. The state promotion and action of structural counter-radicalism have reached only a few urban Indonesians. The majority, however, live in rural areas. This research used observation, interviews, and records. The data was then subjected to descriptive and critical analysis. This study showed that Pesantren have a significant role in preventing radicalisation in their local communities. This campaign has been ongoing for some time and is still strong due to efforts to strengthen academic, religious, and social cultures. Thus, it is necessary to combine the counter-radicalisation efforts of the state, which have focused on structural measures, with the cultural approach exemplified by the Pesantren communities. Maintaining and promoting the integration of all children in the country is important, as terrorism and other forms of radical thought and movement harm religion and the nation.</em></p>

Obedience to Uli’l-Amr and Tax Compliance: Islamic Scholarly Perceptions

For Muslims, all aspects of human life including politics and leadership are governed by the Holy Qur’ān. One of the well-known verses is QS. An-Nisa [4]: 59 which instructs the Muslims to obey uli’l-amr. The literature, however, shows that the scope of obedience is not absolute. Resultantly, the current research aims to understand the tax compliance in the context of obedience to authority. It provides a contemporary viewpoint from the Islamic boarding school (pesantren) communities in Depok, Indonesia about enrichment. Both quantitative research and field observations have been used to accomplish the research goals. Focusing on the pesantren communities’ support for the operation of public services, it highlights the connections between obedience to authority and tax compliance. They confirm several assertions frequently linked to tax compliance based on the responsibility on order to obey the ruler, the legitimacy of tax collection, and the intention to engage in tax (non) compliance. The findings enhance the pesantren environment’s support for taxation as a commitment to implement QS. An-Nisa [4]: 59. If the government’s ability to collect taxes is constrained, it would remind them to handle this resource efficiently. This study emphasises the importance of taxation for the viability of the state with genuine support for taxation, transcending any political right. Since uli’l-amr is inherent in religious teachings, the government’s main goal remains to encourage taxpayer compliance through various means of assistance. In this regard, recommendations for promoting tax compliance through some mechanisms are also presented.

Spatial Multi-Criterion Analysis (SMCA) to Determine the Suitability of Green Open Space (GOS) at Kalurahan Wonokromo, Special Region of Yogyakarta

Rapid urbanization and growth in the Kalurahan Wonokromo, situated in the peri-urban area of Yogyakarta City causes the loss of children's playgrounds while the number of children is increasing. Preserving the remaining space for Green Open Space (GOS) is crucial. Amid the space limit, choosing the right location is one of the keys to ensuring the space functions optimally. We employ the Spatial Multi-Criteria Analysis (SMCA) in selecting several location candidates for the development of GOS using 9 criteria of tree cover, existing open green space, ricefield, social facilities, accessibility, distance to school, presence of small shop, children density, and the riverbank. The SMCA analysis is powered by Analytical Hierarchical Process using expert judgment combined with GIS analysis to yield the weight priority and score for each criterion. As the result, the score for each criterion is 0.3218 for existing open green space, 0.1616 for social facilities 0.1446 for small shops, 0.1265 for roads or accessibility, 0.085 for vegetation, 0.0504 for distance to school, 0.0499 for the riverbank, 0.0367 for the children density, 0.0234 for the ricefield. We obtain 9 candidates for the GOS. The Kalurahan Wonokromo has also planned to build and rehabilitate the open space but needs to acknowledge the needs for GOS from gated communities and pesantren communities as the different types of communities with a different kind of GOS.

Modernization of Education Governance Based on Accelerative Paradigm Among Pesantren Communities in Madura, Indonesia

This study examines the modernization of education governance through an accelerated learning paradigm among pesantren in Madura. This mixed-method study gathered primary data through interview and observation, while the secondary data were gained from relevant literature sources. This study uncovered two significant findings using education management and social change theories. First, the dynamics of education system governance at several pesantren in Madura have undergone a transformation over the past decade. This transformation is highlighted by the emergence of an accelerated learning system at several pesantrens. Second, implementing an accelerated learning program in the pesantren is conducted by performing modernization on the education governance, entailing two aspects, curriculum and period of study. In the curriculum aspect, accelerated learning and modernization takes shape in the form of learning material implementation based on Takhassus (specialization) program, which uses summaries of several subjects compiled from various book references or sources of the same discipline. In addition, through the takhassus program, each learner can manage and complete their study period in a shorter time.

The involvement of the local Islamic boarding school (Pesantren) elite in a regional head election in East Java becomes the winning determiner. In a direct local election, elite religious roles significantly influence the constituent's vote. The elite utilizes religious hegemony in increasing society's political participation during an election. The era of new religious movement changes the tendencies of the thinking paradigm that, for the first time, women emerge as regional heads. This paper was aimed to analyze the hegemony of the religious elite based on Pesantren in the postmodernism era in regional head elections, especially in East Java.

The analysis result remarks the hegemony of the religious elite becomes a tool to obtain power in a regional head election because there are significant influences of religious elite functioning giving dogmatize to society through religious routines ritual such as religion speech

Malay Text Reception among Sufi Orders in West Java: A Study on Wawacan Layang Siti Hasanah

The article discusses the active reception of Malay texts among members of the Qadiriyah wa Naqshabandiyah (TQN) Sufi order in West Java. It focuses on the text entitled Wawacan Layang Siti Hasanah. The TQN members adapted the Malay Cerita Siti Hasanah and turned it into a wawacan, a narrative text in Javanese verse specific to West Java, from as early as 1792 up to the early 20th century. This article discusses the various TQN members’ reception of the Malay hikayat (tales) from the end of the 18th century until the 20th century. Using a literary reception and literary anthropology analysis approach to the Wawacan Layang Siti Hasanah, the analysis found that the text functioned as a didactic text to teach women that they must always obey their husbands. It also contains several Sufi values such as ma’rifa (mystical knowledge of the Godhead) and Nūr Muḥammad (the essence of Muhammad). This article will also show that in the process of adapting the story to their wishes, the TQN members in West Java also turned it into a wawacan and changed the way it was used among the members of the Sufi orders and pesantren (Islamic boarding school) communities.

Exploring the Motivation for Pesantren-Based Microfinance Institution Development: Schutz’s Phenomenological Approach

This study aims to explore the meaning of motivation for pesantren-based microfinance institution development based on Schutz’s phenomenological approach. The action motivation for microfinance institution development is typified based on “because motives” and “in order to motives.” Research on entrepreneurial motivation in China, America, and Greece show that cultural differences explain different motivation. Likewise, pesantren-based microfinance institution development is also perceived to have a different sort of motivation from that of other communities. Based on the uniqueness of pesantren communities and motivation differences among countries, this study employs Schutz’s phenomenological approach, taking the subjects as the founders of microfinance institutions in pesantren. The results of the study show the meaning of social concern as a “because motive” and worship as an “in order to motive.” This has implications for the development of a pesantren-based motivation theory. The motivation of social concern and worship can encourage the success of pesantren-based microfinance institution development. The results contribute to the concept development of entrepreneurial motivation. The meaning of entrepreneurial motivation is not only related to material motives but also a social and religious drive. Social and religious motivation complements an empirical study on entrepreneurship motivation.

The charisma-tization and symbolization towards kiai, create more awareness in studying pro- cess and maximizing self development during a period in pesantren and even beyond. Kiai - santri interpersonal communication restores many nega- tive - unproductive attitudes deliberately and ramifies positive - construc- tive side in everyday life. The more reflective conscience arises in many pesantren communities, significantly cementing the tradition. And if this habitus collectively formed and more and more become a tradition, this could affect to each person who enter the pesantren . This transformation into tradition could possibly occured because of the “abration of tradi- tion” process.

It will save the nation from social diseases such as corruption, collusion, and so on.

GERAKAN TRANSNASIONAL ISLAM DAN GLOBALISASI SALAFI DI ISLAMIC CENTER BIN BAZ YOGYAKARTA

This study tries to elaborate critically the globalized Salafi and its transnational movement with specific cases in Islamic Center Bin Baz (ICBB) of Yogyakarta. It focuses on how the institute modernized their education and propagation (dakwa) movements within global contexts. Its roles in globalized Salafi and persisted core values are inherent in the middle of globalization impacts. The research method applied in this study is cultural studies and field studies with data collection techniques of triangularily taken from documentation, interview and observasion. ICBB Yogyakarta, to some extend, applied modern information and communication technology to introduce and draw attention to transnational Islam. From inception, transnational linkage between ICBB and the Middle Eastern education, especially Makkah and Madinah ulamas and universities, had been linked since the establishment of the institute. Some ICBB’s students are come from surrounding villagers but the others from foreign countries such as Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia. On the other hand, Islamic traditional cultures, values and tenets are also manifested in daily life of whole pesantren communities in spite of modernization and globalization influences. Identities, like the way of live, clothes, foods and beverages, and ethical behaviors of these Salafi movements could easily be typically recognized, whereas that performance indicated the persistence of its values towards globalization and modernization. ICBB Yogyakarta represents adaptive position towards global changes and not anti-Government stands or involves directly in practical politics. This study intentionally elaborates the origins and pattern of globalized salafi at ICBB.
