Tarekat and Social Change: The Influence of Tarekat Movement in Sukamanah Rebellion, Against Japan in 1944
This paper discusses the influence of the tarekat movement in the rebellion against Japan in 1944 from the pesantren in Sukamanah, Tasikmalaya, West Java. After the treaty of Kalijati, 1942, Japan took full control of the land of West Java. Sociologically it was considered to drain and enslave the people of Sukamanah, and theologically coupled with the Seikerei ritual imposed by the Japanese and considered by the leader of Sukamanah, Zaenal Mustafa, as a form of violation of Islamic principles became the motivation for the rebellion. This paper uses the historical method with a social approach. This writing uses the point of view of Sartono Kartodirdjo's social-religious approach in seeing the symptoms of resistance to Colonialism based on religious elites and the impact of a significant social change due to the oppression of colonialism which here is Japanese Imperialism, Tarekat being the only base of resistance. The final finding is that Zaenal Mustafa's role as a figure who further developed Tarekat Syattariyah, although political resistance in Java was very dominant was closely related to the development of the Tarekat Qadiriyah wa Naqsabandiyah community into a new force of resistance in West Java.

Collectivism and Climate Influence: Interpreting Indonesian Society Through the Perspective of Ibn Khaldun
This study analyzes the influence of climate on the formation of social character in Indonesian society based on Ibn Khaldun’s theory. In the Muqaddimah, Khaldun argues that hot and warm climates foster collectivism through environmental adaptation. This research employs a philosophical approach and literature analysis to examine the relevance of this theory within the context of Indonesia’s tropical climate. The findings indicate that the collectivist character of Indonesian society, as seen in practices such as gotong royong (mutual cooperation), reflects an enduring adaptation to ecological challenges. The study also highlights how Indonesia’s agrarian traditions and communal resilience are rooted in climatic necessity. However, the growing impact of globalization and modernity is contributing to a shift toward individualism, disrupting traditional communal patterns. This dynamic tension between collectivist values and individualist tendencies presents new socio-cultural challenges. Ultimately, this study underscores the continued relevance of Ibn Khaldun’s environmental theory for interpreting Indonesia’s socio-cultural transformations and opens avenues for future interdisciplinary research that bridges philosophy, sociology, and climate studies.

Implementation of the Book Ta’limul Muta’alim in Shaping the Character of Santri at Pondok Pesantren Darur Robbani Karanggede
Character education represents a cornerstone of Islamic educational philosophy, serving as a fundamental element in cultivating the holistic development of Muslim youth. In Indonesia's pesantren (Islamic boarding schools) tradition, character formation transcends conventional classroom instruction to become an integrated way of life that encompasses spiritual, intellectual, moral, and social dimensions. Character education is an important aspect in shaping the personality of students in the boarding school environment. The Ta'limul Muta'alim book has a central role in developing the character of santri by instilling the values of knowledge, patience, perseverance, and noble morals. This study aims to analyze the implementation of Ta'limul Muta'alim in shaping the character of students at Darur Robbani Karanggede Islamic Boarding School. The research method used is qualitative with a case study approach. Data collection techniques include observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research findings show that Ta'limul Muta'alim is applied through formal teaching, daily practice, and examples from kyai and ustaz. Supporting factors include a conducive pesantren environment, practice-based learning methods, and a high level of discipline. However, the challenges faced include the diversity of santri backgrounds and the lack of initial understanding of the book. This study concludes that the implementation of Ta'limul Muta'alim is effective in shaping santri character, especially in the aspects of discipline, ethics, and responsibility. Therefore, it is very important for pesantren to continue to develop adaptive learning strategies to maximize the absorption of the values contained in this book.

Tracing the Traces of Culture Acculturation and Islamic Values: Sacred Traditions of the Dukuh Dalam Traditional Village Community in Cikelet Garut
This study aims to explore the Islamic values contained in the traditions of the people of Kampung Adat Dukuh Dalam in Cikelet District, Garut Regency.

Islam in Minangkabau from Conflict to Integrity
This article explains how the development of Islam in Minangkabau acculturated with customs, until the emergence of Islamic reformers who had a major influence on the world of education in Minangkabau which previously had a conflict between the tuo and the mudo because of the differences in paradigms between them in understanding and implementing customs and religion. This study aims to determine the process of the entry of Islam and its development until it merged with customs in Minangkabau. This study uses a historical qualitative approach by looking at the social context that occurred in Minangkabau society by looking at library data related to Minangkabau and Islam. The development of Islam in Minangkabau was not as smooth as imagined. Although the Minangkabau people have accepted Islamic teachings as an official religion by looking at the Minangkabau proverb "Adat basandi syarak, syarak basandi kitabullah", there are several customary practices that are not in line with Islamic teachings that give rise to conflict as evidenced by the Paderi War in Minangkabau. In the period after the Padri War, Islamic reformers were born who gave birth to integrity and had a big influence on the Islamic world in Minangkabau, especially in terms of education, which was proven by the birth of many madrasas and made Minangkabau a region that was strong in Islamic teachings, according to sharia.

Raden Ranggawarsita's Correction of the Javanese Islamic Calendar in Serat Widyapradhana
The Javanese Islamic calendar is a cultural heritage passed down from our ancestors that continues to be preserved today. Some communities still use it in their daily lives. However, not everyone pays close attention to the correction system required for its proper use. Ranggawarsita, a prominent figure of the royal court, wrote a manuscript titled Serat Widyapradhana, which offers a detailed explanation of the application of the Javanese Islamic calendar, including how corrections should be made. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach to explain how Raden Ranggawarsita addressed the correction system within the Javanese Islamic calendar. Data was collected through library research, using the Serat Widyapradhana manuscript as the main source. A philological approach was applied to help the researcher better understand the text. The study found, first, that the Javanese Islamic calendar was already in use before the reign of Sultan Agung, particularly by Sunan Giri II. Second, Ranggawarsita explained in his writings how corrections should be made to the calendar, especially regarding the 2400-year kurup cycle, to prevent the calendar from falling out of sync. These corrections are essential to maintain harmony between the Islamic Hijri calendar and the Javanese calendar. This research highlights the need for greater awareness and understanding among users of the Javanese Islamic calendar, encouraging deeper engagement with the system and contributing to the broader field of Islamic astronomy, particularly in the study of calendar variations.

Sipahalima in Parmalim Teachings: An Analysis of Local Spiritual Resilience Against the Challenges of Modernization in the City of Medan
This study aims to analyze the meaning, function, and dynamics of the Sipaha Lima ritual within the Parmalim belief system in Medan City, as well as the adaptation strategies employed by its community in an urban and modern context. This research is significant because Sipaha Lima is not only a spiritual practice but also a marker of local cultural identity that is vulnerable to marginalization amid globalization and dominant socio-cultural pressures. The study adopts a qualitative approach based on anthropological theory, particularly Victor Turner’s concept of ritual and theories of cultural identity. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews with key informants from the Parmalim community, and document analysis. The findings reveal that Sipaha Lima functions as a medium for community unity, internal solidarity, and the transmission of Batak noble values to the younger generation. The Parmalim community also demonstrates creative adaptation efforts through the use of digital technology and openness to interfaith dialogue. The study concludes that the continuation of the Sipaha Lima ritual reflects the cultural and spiritual resilience of the Parmalim community, while also serving as a form of resistance against stigmatization and the erosion of local values. Broader recognition and systematic documentation are necessary to ensure the preservation of this practice within Indonesia’s diverse cultural framework.

Gayatri Rajapatni's Leadership Strategy as a Revolutionary Woman Designer of the Majapahit Empire's Vision
Modern societies view women as equal to men, especially in government. conversely, societies with traditional stigmas view women as having power only in the domestic sphere. Historically, Javanese women, particularly in the ancient Javanese era, held a strategic position in shaping government policy. This is evident in the presence of Gayatri Rajapatni in the Majapahit Kingdom. Gayatri served as an advisor to the king and a policy maker, although she was not legally the queen.

Women in the Shadow of Colonialism: The Existence of Nyai in the Priangan Residency 1870-1900
This article aims to examine the dynamics of nyai life in the Priangan Residency during the Dutch colonial period between 1870 and 1900. The practice of concubinage involving native women and European men reflected gender inequality, economic pressure, and patriarchal colonial power. The term nyai is often associated with issues of morality and social stigma, but in reality they played an important role as a liaison between native and colonial society. This article also explores the legal regulations regarding mixed marriages and the fate of children from concubinage who often experienced social and legal discrimination. This phenomenon illustrates the dilemma of colonial authorities in regulating public morality amidst economic interests and power. This research uses a historical method that includes the stages of heuristics (collecting sources), source criticism (external and internal), interpretation (interpretation of historical meaning), and historiography (writing history). The sources used come from colonial archives, newspapers, Staatsblad, and documentation from institutions such as KITLV and Delpher. Through this approach, the article presents a critical analysis of the role and position of nyai in the socio-economic structure of the colonial Dutch East Indies.

Uang Pannai in the Bugis Marriage Custom: Islamic Legal Perspective on Local Traditions
This research aims to analyze the practice of uang pannai in Bugis marriage customs and examine the perspective of Islamic law on this local tradition. This research is important because the escalation of the value of the “uang pannai“ has created an economic burden that prevents young couples from marrying, resulting in a shift from the original philosophical meaning of the tradition that emphasizes honor and reward. This phenomenon requires harmonization between local cultural practices and Islamic values in the context of a multicultural society. The research method used is qualitative with a descriptive-analytical approach through literature studies, using primary data from the Quran, hadith, and classical and contemporary fiqh literature, as well as secondary data from relevant books, scientific journals, and previous research. The results of the study show that uang pannai ' has a deep social meaning in the Bugis society as a symbol of honor, an instrument of social status affirmation, and a medium for family unification. From the perspective of Islamic law, this tradition is acceptable as long as it does not conflict with sharia principles, especially when evaluated through the framework of sharia maqasid. The research concludes that the harmonization between the tradition of uang panai' and Islamic values can be achieved through moderation in the determination of amounts, emphasis on symbolic meaning, and integration with dowry, so that cultural heritage is maintained while maintaining conformity with Islamic teachings.

A Comparative Study of Skepticism Towards Triumph in the Search for Truth Imam Al-Ghazali in Al-Munqidz min Al-Dhalal and Sophie in Sophie's World
This study aims to compare the dynamics of the search for truth experienced by Imam al-Ghazali in his autobiographical work Al-Munqidh min al-Dhalal and the fictional character Sophie in Jostein Gaarder’s novel Sophie's World. The theme of the search for truth is significant as it reflects the intellectual and spiritual struggles of human beings across time and cultures, offering deep reflections on the crisis of meaning often found in modern life. Using a qualitative approach and content analysis method, this research examines the stages both figures undergo—facing skepticism, engaging in critical reflection, and ultimately attaining philosophical and spiritual conviction. Imam al-Ghazali experienced an epistemological crisis that led him to the path of Sufism as a means of achieving certainty, while Sophie embarks on a rational journey through philosophical dialogues toward existential understanding. The findings show that, despite originating from different historical and intellectual traditions, both figures follow a similar pattern in their quest for truth: intellectual unrest, distrust of external authority, pursuit of independent thinking, and the eventual discovery of a personal and transformative form of belief. These findings highlight the importance of dialogue between Eastern spiritual traditions and Western philosophy in understanding the dynamics of truth-seeking in today’s global and contemporary context.
