This journal also has programs aimed at bridging the gap between the textual and contextual approaches to Islamic Studies and solving the dichotomy between ‘orthodox’ and ‘heterodox’ Islam. The two were linked: the textual tradition showed that Islam was, as well as a set of religious tenets, a way of approaching the practical economic and social challenges of life. So, this journal invites the intersection of several disciplines and scholars. In other words, its contributors borrowed from a range of disciplines, including the humanities and social sciences.</p> <p>IJIMS, published twice a year (June and December), always places Islam and Muslim in the central focus of academic inquiry and invites any discussions as the aim and scopes. It has published the articles since 2011. </p> <p>IJIMS has been a member of Crossref.org since 2015, so each article has a unique DOI number.

Therefore, it is expected that the article can place the Islamic community in Bali and its Islamic intellectual tradition in the realm of discussion of Islamic scholarship in Indonesia, and Southeast Asia in general. The manuscripts were deemed copied around the 19<sup>th</sup> century and early 20<sup>th</sup> centuries. After describing various aspects of Islamic manuscripts found in Kampung Saren Jawa, such as materials of manuscripts, languages and scripts, colophons, and the contents of manuscript texts, we have argued that Islamic intellectual traditions in Bali relate to Islamic intellectual traditions outside of Bali, especially those that speak Malay and Javanese. An indication of the linkage of Islamic intellectual traditions in Bali with other regions, especially in the Malay world, is the discovery of several texts, which are the texts of Sufism, Fiqh, Tawhid, as well as religious literary texts written by famous scholars in the Malay world and has become popular texts until now</p>2025-01-11T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Agus Iswanto, Moch Lukluil Maknun, Umi Masfiah, Firdaus Wajdihttps://ejournal.uinsalatiga.ac.id/index.php/ijims/article/view/591Coping the discrepancy between moral and intellectual achievement: the model integration of higher education and modern Islamic Boarding Schools in Indonesia.2023-11-18T03:41:20+00:00Jarman Arroisijarman@unida.gontor.ac.idRodhi Hakiki Bin Cecep Mustoparodhihakikibcm@gmail.comRoyyan Ramdhani Djayusmanr.djayusman@kingston.ac.uk<p>Currently, higher education institutions in Indonesia are considered to produce products that emphasize the intellectual aspect but lack the moral element. Meanwhile, it is recognized that pesantren institutions’ products emphasize the moral aspect but lack the intellectual element. This paper aims to analyze the model integration of higher education with modern Islamic Boarding Schools, the system of instilling values, the philosophy of the Islamic boarding school, and strategies for facing challenges—a case study of Darussalam University (UNIDA) Gontor. In addition to using the participatory observation method as a data collection tool, this paper uses descriptive analysis during reading, discussing, and writing. With this method, three important findings can be conveyed; <em>first,</em> the integration model between UNIDA Gontor and modern Islamic boarding schools can be appropriately implemented if an adequate boarding system supports it. <em>Second,</em> a boarding system that emphasizes discipline and offers a dense curriculum and a range of extracurricular activities can effectively instill values, work ethics, and the philosophy of the Islamic boarding school while also embodying the <em>triharma</em> of higher education. <em>Third,</em> the power of motivation, support from various parties, and the active participation of students in the educational process will determine their achievements and competencies while on campus or in society.</p>2025-01-11T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Jarman Arroisi, Mustopa, Djayusmanhttps://ejournal.uinsalatiga.ac.id/index.php/ijims/article/view/1931Local Wisdom as Halal Tourism Model in West Sumatera: an `Urf Perspective 2024-12-09T02:37:26+00:00rusyaida darlisrusyaida@uinbukittinggi.ac.id<p>The purpose of this research is to explore the uniqueness of halal tourism in West Sumatra, including the development of such locally wise-based halal tourism, its harmony with <strong><em>`</em></strong><em>urf </em>principle<em>s</em>, and its advantages and disadvantages. By employing a qualitative research method, this research applies a case study approach to analyse halal tourism destinations in the region. The results of this research indicated that the uniqueness of halal tourism in the province of West Sumatra is attributable to the highly-coherent integration of religion and customs. This is reflected by the use of “<em>gonjong,</em>” a horn-like curved roof, in most of the mosques in the region; the wearing of <em>"baju basiba,"</em> a traditional attire according to Islamic syariah guidance, by local women in traditional events; the tradition of <em>“makan bajamba” </em>feast, a communal dining to preserve manners and refined etiquette among the people; and the existence of traditional tourism villages with their historic and unique buildings. The evolving local wisdom forms a distinctive <strong><em>`urf</em></strong> that has become a living norm within the community and has developed into local regulations or laws</p>2025-01-11T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 rusyaida darlishttps://ejournal.uinsalatiga.ac.id/index.php/ijims/article/view/598Islamic Work Ethics, Local Wisdom, and Spirit of Capitalism: Insight from a Perantau Minangkabau2023-11-21T04:20:58+00:00Mochlasin Mochlasinmochlasin@uinsalatiga.ac.idBudiharjo Budiharjobudihardjo@uinsalatiga.ac.id<p>This study aims to uncover the phenomenon of Islamic work ethics among the Minangkabau diaspora in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. The research adopts a phenomenological approach, utilizing Weber's theory and the religious dimensions theory proposed by Glock and Stark. To delve into the role of tradition in shaping the spirit of capitalism, Bourdieu's theory of cultural reproduction is employed. Data collection techniques include literature reviews, field observations, and in-depth interviews with Minangkabau migrants engaged in trading in Yogyakarta. The findings of this research elucidate the phenomenon of the spirit of capitalism among the Minangkabau, which differs from Weber's conclusions about modern industrial societies in the West. The religious traditions of the Minangkabau community are known to be strong, as reflected in the life philosophy of "<em>Adat Basandi Syarak Syarak Basandi Kitabullah,"</em> meaning customs are based on law, and law is based on the Qur'an. In practice, the spirit of capitalism among the Minangkabau is not only inspired by Islamic teachings on economic doctrines but also rooted in local wisdom in the form of proverbs (<em>pepatah-petitih</em>) that have become integrated into speech, attitudes, and actions. The combination of religious teachings and local wisdom gives rise to the spirit of capitalism implemented in trading activities. The family network business model of kinship inspired by the values of local wisdom is also an interesting finding regarding the resilience and sustainability of their businesses. This research emphasizes the significant contribution of religious teachings and local values to the spirit of capitalism, a factor that has been overlooked. Practically, it can be useful in advocating for the preservation of local wisdom as a positive source of wealth amid the infiltration of modern culture in the era of digitization.</p>2024-11-21T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Mochlasin Mochlasin, Budiharjo Budiharjohttps://ejournal.uinsalatiga.ac.id/index.php/ijims/article/view/2084It’s a ‘plandemic’, not a pandemic: unraveling the discourse of a global conspiracy to destroy Islamic faith through COVID-19 health protocols2024-12-02T07:19:28+00:00Andi Muhammad Irawanamuhirawan@fbs.unp.ac.idDevy Kurnia Alamsyahdk_alamsyah@fbs.unp.ac.idIskandar Iskandariskandar@unm.ac.idNasmilah Nasmilahnasmilah@unhas.ac.idHadisaputrahadisaputra@unismuh.ac.id<p>This paper aims to investigate the discursive arguments surrounding COVID-19 health protocols, particularly those related to prayer restrictions for Indonesian Muslims during the pandemic. The study highlights the importance of examining the development of contemporary Indonesian Islam and how particular Muslims address social and health issues that touch on sensitive religious matters through various religious interpretations. It explores how different religious sermons are discursively constructed by Muslim scholars to oppose the implementation of protocols restricting prayer, such as prayer distancing, mosque closures, and praying from home. The study employs topoi analysis as one approach in Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to examine how arguments are utilized in texts and talks to justify specific claims. The study finds that several topoi are used to justify the claim that COVID-19 is a ‘plandemic’ or a global conspiracy orchestrated by Judaism to destroy the Islamic faith. These arguments are specifically framed using the topos of enmity, faith, threat, or danger, definition or name-interpretation, and the topos of law.</p>2025-01-11T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Andi Muhammad Irawan, Devy Kurnia Alamsyah, Iskandar Iskandar, Nasmilah Nasmilah, Hadisaputrahttps://ejournal.uinsalatiga.ac.id/index.php/ijims/article/view/2274The Religion and Social Movements in Indonesia2024-12-12T03:07:26+00:00Dadang Kuswanadadangkuswana5@gmail.comDeden Sumpenadedensumpena67@gmail.comYoshy Hendra Hardiyan Syahyushyhendra@gmail.com<p>This article examines the role of religion in contemporary social movements in Indonesia using the framework of relative deprivation theory. The phenomenon of religion-based social movements has become an integral part of the socio-political dynamics of post-Reformation Indonesia. This research presents three cases of significant religion-based social movements in Indonesia in the last decade. The cases chosen for in-depth analysis include: Action Defending Islam 2016-2017 (also known as the "212 movement"), the #2019ChangePresident Movement, and the Movement to reject the 2020 Job Creation Omnibus Law. This study examines how perceptions of injustice and socio-economic inequality trigger mass mobilization based on religious identity. This research adopts a qualitative research method with a multiple case study design. Through critical analysis of three recent cases of social movements, this research reveals the complexity of the interaction between religious, economic and political factors in shaping collective action. The findings show that, while relative deprivation plays a significant role in motivating participation in religious social movements, contextual factors such as political opportunity structures and organizational resources also play an important role. The theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed in the context of efforts to build social cohesion and conflict management in a diverse Indonesia</p>2025-01-11T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Dadang Kuswana, Deden Sumpena, Yoshy Hendra Hardiyan Syahhttps://ejournal.uinsalatiga.ac.id/index.php/ijims/article/view/1507Integrating Javanese Culture in Islamic Education2024-03-14T07:26:25+00:00Ahmad Salim Salimahmadsalim0305@almaata.ac.idImam Suyutiimamsuyuti@almaata.ac.idWahyu Kholis Prihantorowahyukholis@almaata.ac.idAhmad Muqorrobin231500025@almaata.ac.idEsthi Nawangsasiesthi.nawangsasi@almaata.ac.id<p>This article examines Masjid Pathok Negara's transformative role in preserving local wisdom in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The <em>Masjid Pathok Negara</em> is the oldest mosque in Yogyakarta and possesses a distinctive history and architectural style. Additionally, this mosque serves as a hub for Islamic education, incorporating Javanese cultural principles into religious practices. This study employed a qualitative methodology with a case study approach, gathering data through observations, interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that <em>Masjid Pathok Negara</em> plays a transformative role in upholding local traditions in Yogyakarta through various means, including (1) incorporating Javanese architectural elements, (2) applying the <em>tridarma</em> concept in mosque administration, (3) conducting Islamic education rooted in Javanese values, and (4) partnering with diverse stakeholders to harness the mosque’s potential. This article suggests that <em>Masjid Pathok Negara</em> may continue to uphold its identity as a mosque that honors Javanese culture and positively contributes to the surrounding community</p>2025-01-28T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Ahmad Salim Salim, Imam Suyuti, Wahyu Kholis Prihantoro, Ahmad Muqorrobin, Esthi Nawangsasihttps://ejournal.uinsalatiga.ac.id/index.php/ijims/article/view/1092Minority, Cultural Citizenship, and Indonesian Islam: Challenges in a Pluralistic Society2025-01-14T03:01:34+00:00Zuly Qodirzuliqodir@umy.ac.idRobert W Hefnerrhefner@bu.edu<p>Minority citizenship is a very important dimension that gets attention in a pluralistic country like Indonesia. This is because minority citizens often receive discriminatory, intimidating, and violent treatment from members of the majority religious, ethnic and social groups. Cultural citizenship related to religion, ethnicity and social groups is thus a development study of purely political citizenship studies. Three main findings were obtained through the research. First, multicultural citizenship is a very authentic idea that minority groups aspire to; second, the actions that promote and hinder the recognition of multicultural citizenship in social interactions; and third, the concerns that minority groups in Yogyakarta, and even Indonesia in general, have and experience. This article is intended to contribute to the understanding of multicultural citizenship within the social political life of post reform Indonesia amidst the phenomenon of rampant Islamization. Theoretically speaking, the article aims to contribute to developing a more authentic and strategic citizenship perspective so that the recognition of minority groups in a Muslim-majority country can transpire harmoniously, not confrontationally.</p>2025-01-28T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Zuly Qodir, Robert W Hefner
