“…Such a panorama can be seen in several places towards the University of Ocean. Minority freedom without headscarves in Langsa is inseparable from the influence of Muslim intellectuals at IAIN Langsa who are identified as an organic intellectual class as popularized by Antonio Gramsci who is next to the oppressed group 19 such as Ansor, Febriandi 20 , Miswari 21 , who pay attention to minority issues through their works in Al-Jami'ah 22 , Studia Islamika 23 , IJIMS 24 , and Journal of Social Science and Religion 25 .…”

Abstract: This article reviews the perspectives of ulama in shaping the locality of tolerance in the public sphere of education in Langsa, Aceh by highlighting the fact that there is local tolerance as a critical argument against the hegemony of the universal meaning of tolerance. Using a qualitative methodology, this article explores the perspective of scholars regarding the limits of tolerance such as clothing, social interaction, religious and organizational activities, and the right to receive religious education among non-Muslim students and students. This study produced several findings, first, the way to treat diversity in the Langsa-Aceh public education space is distinctive because the ulama's perspective on tolerance presents local practice both in terms of dress styles, religious and organizational activism, and religious education. Second, the perspective of these scholars reconstructs the meaning of tolerance which was originally universal in a direction that is local and contextual.Keywords: Ulama, Locality, Tolerance, Education, Aceh

“…The majority of them are middle-aged (over 50 years old) and have a basic educational background or a maximum of junior secondary level. NL, MR, ML, and RT, to varying degrees, corrected the assumption of some Western liberal feminists that women from the east (Muslims) are weak figures and always depend on other parties (especially husbands) (Ansor and Amri 2016).…”

This article examines the gender practices of a marginal community based on economic resilience among traditional women parking attendants in Aceh, Indonesia. It specifically aims to challenge the framing of prior scholarship, which generally states that the daily gender practice of the marginal Muslim community does not provide ample room for a woman’s autonomy. The data was collected using semi-structural interviews and non-participatory observations of ten traditional women parking attendants in Langsa, Aceh. Using the concepts of agency, the article shows the way the women of a marginal community formulate and redefine gender relations in their socio-cultural sphere. Finally, the finding shows the ambivalences and the contribution of the gender practice within the marginal community in Aceh over the enrichment of gender equality discourse in Muslim societies.==========================================================================================================ABSTRAK - Agensi Subaltern dan Resiliensi Ekonomi Kaum Marginal di Aceh.

Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara semi terstruktur dan observasi non-partisipatoris terhadap sepuluh petugas parkir perempuan tradisional di Langsa, Aceh. Hasil analisis dengan konsep agensi, tulisan ini memperlihatkan cara dimana perempuan pada komunitas marjinal memformulasi dan meredefinisirelasi gender dalam ruang sosio-kulturalnya. Temuan kajian juga memperlihatkan ambivalensi dan kontribusi praktik gender dalam komunitas marjinal di Aceh terhadap pengayaan wacana kesetaraan gender dalam masyarakat Muslim.

The dynamics of Christian identity related to structural relations have begun to get the attention of researchers, 14 although it has not explored the diversity of voices and internal Christian contestations.…”

Abstract: There is an increasing interest in the study of Christian identity as a minority in a Muslim majority country. However, the study of plurality regarding the Christian identity considering the context of Islamic Sharia in Aceh is still limited. This article discusses the formation and representation of Christian identity in Aceh by focusing on how they negotiate internal aspirations in the context of Islamic Sharia. The data are based on in-depth interviews with fifteen Christian figures consisting of priests and religious leaders in five districts/cities in Aceh. The article argues that the internal and external dynamics of Christians influenced the narration of their identity in Aceh. The article shows the context of Islamic Sharia and the plurality of Christian internal aspirations resulting in unsimplifiable to a single genre, but rather polyphonic and sometimes mutually contested.Keywords: Aceh Christian, identity reproduction, sharia law
