The purpose of this study is to describe the religious attitudes of the Muslim amid COVID-19 outbreak. Many muslims are very depressed, because the government and related authorities are trying to ban worship activities in mosques during COVID-19 pandemic. Many Muslims find it hard to leave their custom of worship together at the mosque. Many of them are still praying together in the mosque. This phenomenon is the object of the study. The results show that the pattern of worship activities carried out by Muslims amid COVID-19 pandemic has changed. At the surface level, it appears that mosques tend to be empty and closed. At a deeper level, we see a unique pattern that involves four variables: the obligation of worship, the worship participation, the encouragement of social distancing, and the rationality of Muslims.

This paper attempts to closely portray interreligious harmony, especially between Muslim and Hindu community in Tengger, East Java. Tengger community are ingrained with their own culture and practicing their unique tradition. Through symbolic-interactionist approach, this paper supposes that this reality represents a cultural process which is simultaneously and flexibly flowing and growing. In the name of brotherhood and humanity, Tengger people are running their daily activities, discounting subjective differences among them. Sociologically, they are focusing on facing the reality as objective necessities where the self and the other are mutually understanding and complementing each other. In this regard, they have improved the way of interaction, from saya-and-mereka perspective to kami-andkita approach. Social activities and religious/cultural rites symbolically become communicative device of inter-relation among the people. Muslim and Hindu harmony in this community denotes mult...

The commodification of religion has entered fields that were previously unthinkable. The magnitude of the potential behind the rise of the Islamic spirit is a factor in the spread of religious commodification, although commodification of religion does not oppose existing religious teachings and even tends to support it, but this phenomenon has the potential to erode the values of religiosity and sacredness in religion. Karl Marx has warned that the commodification of religion is like opium, the opium can provide temporary peace but consciously or unconsciously it results in bigger damage. The fields of commodification of religion have various styles and methods, but these various styles and methods bring up to a pattern which is then used as a reference for capitalists to branding their products. In order to explain the phenomenon of this pattern of religious commodification, the researcher uses a normative qualitative method approach based on library research by using secondary dat...

Abstrak: Agama adalah sebuah realitas sosial yang tidak dapat dielakkan oleh siapapun, baik dalam masyarakat tradisional maupun modern. Dimensi pluralitas yang dipunyai agama adalah sesuatu yang sifatnya neutral values, artinya ia mempunyai potensi konstruktif sekaligus destruktif dalam kehidupan umat manusia. Mengingat pluralitas agama merupakan keniscayaan sosiologis, maka perlu ditingkatkan kedewasaan dalam menerima perbedaan dan memperluas wawasan paham keagamaan, agar perbedaan yang ada bukannya menambah potensi konflik melainkan menjadikan pluralitas sebagai aset budaya dan politik. Kerusuhan dan peristiwa kekerasan massal yang terjadi di berbagai daerah di Indonesia belakangan ini merupakan suatu fenomena yang amat memilukan dalam konteks hidup beragama dan bernegara. Bukan hanya dari banyaknya korban jiwa yang jatuh, tapi lebih-lebih lagi banyak pranata agama, pranata sosial yang menjadi amukan massa. Hal ini terlihat jelas dari peristiwa Ambon, Maluku, Ketapang, Aceh, Mataram, dan sederetan peristiwa lainnya yang banyak mengorbankan jiwa manusia. Dalam peristiwa ini telah terjadi dehumanisasi, harga diri dan hak-hak asasi manusia sudah tidak dipandang lagi. Kata kunci: Agama, Konflik Sosial, dan Ekonomi.

Pemberdayaan masyarakat berbasis agama dapat dikatakan bahwa dakwah pemberdayaan masyarakat berupaya mengemban misinya untuk meningkatkan kualitas hidup masyarakat, lahir dan batin. Upaya peningkatan kualitas hidup masyarakat dilakukan dengan membawa mereka kepada kehidupan yang islami, meningkatkan keimanan dan ketaqwaan serta kemampuan menguasai teknologi. Dengan upaya pemberdayaan dakwah ini memiliki relevansi dan sejalan dengan misi penyebaran Islam yaitu membawa rahmat bagi alam semesta. Belajar dari proses penyebaran Islam, proses pemberdayaan dakwah harus dimulai atas dasar agama yang kemudian dikaitkan dengan pemahaman tentang berbagai fenomena alam dan masalah sosial, yang kesemuanya dianggap sebagai satu kesatuan. Dalam rangka misi keagamaan ini, pembinaan masyarakat dilakukan untuk mewujudkan masyarakat yang sejahtera dan batiniah. Proses ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode model percontohan, yang dimulai dari dai pribadi yang kemudian diperluas ke komunitas lingkungan kecil yang kemudian dikembangkan dan diperluas. Artikel ini disusun dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif melalui pendekatan studi literatur. Studi literatur dilakukan dengan cara mengumpulkan, membaca dan menganalisis berbagai literatur atau referensi seperti buku, jurnal ilmiah dan berbagai karya ilmiah lainnya yang berkaitan dengan dakwah dan pemberdayaan. Dalam artikel ini, penulis akan menguraikan apa saja yang berkaitan dengan dakwah dan pemberdayaan seperti definisi dan hakikatnya masing-masing. Setelah itu, penulis akan menjelaskan secara terperinci tentang penerapan dakwah melalui kegiatan pemberdayaan. Kajian ini diharapkan dapat menjadi kontribusi bagi para ilmuwan dan praktisi dakwah, agen pemberdayaan, lembaga-lembaga keagamaan dan lembaga-lembaga sosial lainnya untuk memberdayakan masyarakat islam secara maksimal dan berkesinambungan.
