Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Islam Syi‘ah telah hadir di Manado sejak pasca Revolusi Iran, namun para penganutnya baru menunjukkan eksistensi dan ekspresi keagamaannya pasca jatuhnya Orde Baru karena adanya iklim keterbukaan politik. Kehadiran Islam Syi‘ah telah menciptakan relasi yang dinamis dengan Islam Sunni di Manado. Relasi antara Muslim Sunni dan Syi‘ah cenderung berjalan dengan baik pada masyarakat bawah. Mereka hidup saling bertetangga, mengunjungi, bercengkrama, dan juga membantu dalam berbagai urusan. Meski begitu, relasi tersebut juga kerap mengalami hubungan yang diliputi oleh ketegangan akibat hadirnya para tokoh Sunni lokal yang berusaha merebut pengaruh dalam panggung dakwah dan juga hadirnya kelompok Salafi-Wahabi yang getol mengampanyekan pandangan anti Syi‘ah di ruang publik dengan memanfaatkan momentum konflik Sunni dan Syi‘ah di level nasional dan global (Timur Tengah), serta memanfaatkan momentum peristiwa politik yang dianggap memberi keuntungan bagi eksis...

Kebijakan negara di bawah pemerintahan Jokowi yang melarang organisasi Islamis seperti Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia (HTI) dan Front Pembela Islam (FPI) telah menuai pro dan kontra dalam diskursus sosial-politik dan keagamaan di Indonesia.

This paper looks into the struggle between Islam and politics in Indonesia from Soekarno-era up to the Reform. So far, Islam in Indonesia has been known as unique because of its history. When Islam entered Indonesia, it was mystical in nature, accommodating towards local religion and culture that existed before its arrival. In the wake of the emergence of the nation-State concept in this modern age, the struggle between Islam and politics in Indonesia tends to be characterized by the presence dialectic that continues to take place, i.e. whether Islam should adopted as the sole ideology and the state positive law of the country or on the contrary where it should become the ethics and values in the spirit of the nation and State. This indicates that the struggle between Islam and politics in Indonesia is not static, but rather it tends to be dynamic and volatile as it is strongly affected by changes in the political landscape in each era of Government.
