This article discusses the teaching of Islam through the integration of pesantren and mosques functions, focusing on South Sulawesi. This study is directed to see the significance of teaching in pesantren and mosques in producing and supporting consistency of religious moderation in Indonesia. This study uses a descriptive-analytical method, by applying the theory of cultural reproduction of Pierre Bourdieu, which includes arena and habitus as the main components, of which there is capital. From this, this study concludes that Islamic teaching in pesantren and mosques carried out by ulema has a strong significance in carrying out consistency of religious moderation in South Sulawesi, even in the Indonesian context. The social capital of the ulema in pesantren and mosques builds a social structure that places the ulema as local leaders (agents) in forming a moderate religious model. The significance of teaching Islam further becomes a great opportunity in maintaining and developing religious moderation in Indonesia which is carried out together with the government. The collaboration between the government and the ulema indicates the need for agreement in understanding the urgency of religious moderation in Indonesia. In the agreement, the government as the provider of facilities and infrastructure supports the Islamic teaching movement by the ulema. This is as happened in the process of teaching Islam at the beginning of Islamization in Indonesia, including in South Sulawesi

Tulisan ini hendak mendiskusikan pembacaan semiotika dalam mengungkap pemahaman atas kisah dalam al-Qur’an, yang dalam hal ini akan berfokus pada penerapan teori naratif dari A.J.

Reinterpretation of the Term Al-Nas (QS. Al-Hujurat 13) in Relation to the Social Aspects of Human and Homo Sapiens

The interpretation of QS. Al-Hujurat 13 revolves as the creation of human which refers to Adam and Eve. In fact, human terminology in contemporary discourse refers to the definition of human as a homo sapien. Homo sapien refers to humans not only as biological but also social. By using the method of Tafsir Maqashidi, this article develops an understanding of Tafseer. Here, the Tafsir Maqashidi will be used as a method of reinterpreting the term al-Nas in QS. Al-Hujurat 13. The results of this article indicate that QS. Al-Hujurat 13 does not refer to Adam and Hawa, but it discusses the creation of humans that previously had other parties. The other party here starts from God, parents, family, society, living and dead beings, and the universe. Apart from that, this article also shows that the social aspect of the verse includes not only fellow Muslims, fellow humans, but also all God's creatures. These two understandings explain the similarities of Al-Nas and homo sapien in the context of humans as one of the species of living things on this earth. From here, humans are required to hifdzh Al-Aql, hifdzh Al-Din, hifdz Al-Nashl, hifdzl Al-Mal, hifdzh Al-Nafs, hifdzh Al-Bi'ah and hifdzh Al-Daulah as maqashidi QS. Al-Hujurat 13 which can be widely felt in human life

Kajian ini merupakan penelitian pustaka dan lapangan sekaligus.  Kajian pustaka diarahkan untuk menelusuri sisi historis tiga pesantren tersebut terkait jaringan dan model beragamanya, sementara kajian lapangan diarahkan untuk mengungkap kebertahanan jaringan dan model beragamanya. Kajian ini menyimpulkan bahwa dari sisi jaringan, tiga pesantren tersebut saling mempengaruhi hingga berpangkal pada pengaruh tradisi pendidikan Islam dari Mekkah dan Jawa. Dari sisi model beragama, tiga pesantren tersebut menunjukkan upaya penerapan dan penyebaran paham moderasi beragama pada konteksnya masing-masing, yang terlihat sejak awal didirikannya yang didukung oleh pemerintah setempat, visi misinya yang memperbaiki akhlak dan intelektual umat, materi-materi kitab yang diajarkan, hingga pandangan para alumninya. Karena itu, perhatian sekaligus penguatan jaringan pesantren yang memiliki model beragama moderat perlu terus dilakukan, terutama dalam rangka menghindari masuknya paham radikalisme dan terorisme ke lembaga pesantren. Kata Kunci: As’adiyah, DDI, Nahdlatul Ulum, moderasi beragama, jaringan pesantren   This study responds to the findings of the BNPT which states that there are pesantrens that are suspected to be affiliated with terrorism and radicalism. This study focuses on pesantrens of As'adiyah, Darul Da'wah wal Irsyad (DDI) and Nahdlatul Ulum, especially in terms of their religious networks and models as the basis for religious moderation. The question of this study is how are the networks and religious models of As'adiyah, DDI and Nahdlatul Ulum, and the relationship between the three in religious moderation? This study is both library and field research. The literature review is directed to explore the historical side of the three pesantren related to their networks and religious models, while field studies are directed to reveal the persistence of their networks and religious models. From this, this study concludes that the network of the three pesantren was influenced by the intellectual traditions of Mecca and Java. Even though all three have different religious models, all three show religious moderation. This can be seen from the beginning of its establishment which was supported by local government, its vision-mission to improve the morals and intellectuals of the people (umat), kitab materials taught, to the views of each alumni. Therefore, it is necessary to continue to pay attention to as well as strengthen the pesantren network that has a moderate religious model, especially in order to avoid the entry of radicalism and terrorism into Islamic boarding schools.
