The Struggle of the Shi‘is in Indonesia
The Struggle of the Shi‘is in Indonesia is a pioneering work. It is the first comprehensive scholarly examination in English of the development of Shiism in Indonesia. It focuses primarily on the important period between 1979 and 2004 – a period of nearly a quarter of a century that saw the notable dissemination of Shi’i ideas and a considerable expansion of the number of Shi’i adherents in Indonesia. Since Islam in Indonesia is overwhelmingly Sunni, this development of Shiism in a predominantly Sunni context is a remarkable phenomenon that calls for careful, critical investigation. There is also an important examination of the principal ideas underlying the Madhab Ahl al-Bayt, the I...
Muslim-Christian Relations in the New Order Indonesia
The relationship between Muslims and Christians in Indonesia is an important subject. Apart from a few investigations on certain conflicts in different areas of Indonesia, little effort has been devoted to thoroughly examining the complexity of the relationship. This study is an attempt to investigate the perspectives of the exclusivist and inclusivist Muslims on Muslim-Christian relations in Indonesia, especially during the New Order period (1965-1998).

Sejuta Pahala
Bulan Suci Ramadhan merupakan bulan yang sangat dinantikan oleh kaum Muslim. Inilah bulan yang penuh dengan keberkahan, kasih sayang, dan pengampunan atas dosa-dosa yang kita lakukan. Pada bulan ini pula, amal-amal ibadah, sekecil apa pun, dilipatgandakan pahalanya oleh Allah Swt. Buku kecil ini bak setetes buih di permukaan samudera luas, atau lebih kecil lagi, dari samudera keagungan Kekasih Allah, Kanjeng Nabi saw, yang teramat luas dan dalam. Namun, sekecil apa pun, mengikuti guru kita semua Allahyarham K.H. Dr. Jalaluddin Rakhmat (semoga Allah senantiasa meluaskan kubur beliau beserta Bunda Euis Kartini): l’amour est un bien, n’est pas un mais, yakni cinta adalah “meskipun”, bukanlah “tetapi”. Sekecil apa pun, semoga Dia Yang Maha Pengasih menjadikan apa yang ada di dalam buku kecil ini tambahan mekar bersemi cinta pada Kekasih Allah, Kanjeng Nabi saw.
Islamism and Democracy in Indonesia
Most scholarly works conducted within the period of post-New Order Indonesia have underlined the fact that Indonesian Islamists reject the notion of democracy; no adequate explanation nonetheless has been attempted thus far as to how and to what extent democracy is being rejected. This book is dedicated to filling the gap by examining the complex reality behind the Islamists' rejection of democracy. It focuses its analysis on two streams of Islamism: the two Islamist groups that seek "extra-parliamentary" means to achieve their goals, that is, MMI and HTI, and the PKS Islamists who choose the existing political party system as a means of their power struggle. As this book has demonstrated, there are times when the two streams of Islamism share a common platform of understanding and interpretation as well as an intersection where they are in conflict with one another. The interplay between contested meanings over particular theological matters on normative grounds and power contests among the Islamists proves to be critical in shaping this complexity.

The ‘Crossed-Out God’ in the Asia-Pacific
This book explores the evaluations made by religious groups and individuals about the potential of public spheres for religious practice, focussing upon public religion in societies of the Asia-Pacific. Across this region we observe a resurgence of religious traditions, increasing mediatisation of religion, and an inward turn toward conservative political programs. Against this background, relations between religion and public domains are critical influences upon civic inclusion and equal citizenship. In contrast to conventional approaches to religion and public life that focus upon the public potential of religion, chapter authors focus upon the religious potential of public domains, taking...

Religious Diversity in Muslim-majority States in Southeast Asia
"This book fills a gap in authoritative analyses of the causes of inter-religious conflict and the practice of religious toleration. The rise of more overt expressions of Islamic piety and greater bureaucratization of Islam in both Indonesia and Malaysia over several decades have tested the "live and let live" philosophy which used to characterize religious expression in these nations. The analyses in each chapter of the book break new ground with contextualized studies of particular and recent incidents of conflict or harassment in a variety of areas – from urban centres to more remote and, even complex, locations. As these studies show, legislation stands or falls on the ability and dete...
