%X The second book chapter in this series, titled Mainstreaming  Indonesian Islam: Family, Youth, Wellbeing, and the Path to Social  Transformation, presents a rich body of research and observation  that broadly discusses the dynamics of Indonesian Muslim society.  Indonesia, as a case and example, offers valuable lessons regarding the  relationship between religion and social life, ranging from aspects of  family, wellbeing, to its relationship with the state. This series provides  profound insights into how Islam in Indonesia adapts to contemporary  social and cultural developments while still maintaining traditional  and local values. By exploring various issues related to family, youth,  and wellbeing, the book demonstrates how social transformation can  occur within the context of religious and cultural diversity in Indonesia,  offering a model for other Muslim countries in managing the relationship  between religion, society, and the state.  In the first chapter, Sophia Rose Arjana, a scholar from Western  Kentucky University in the USA, thoughtfully explores the themes of  postcolonialism and remembrance in the study of Islam. As a scholar  focused on the Islamic world, particularly in Iran and Indonesia,  Arjana emphasizes the significance of memory and remembrance  in understanding Islam. Her fieldwork, which involves immersing  herself in Islamic communities, embodies the spirit of postcolonialism.  Through her comprehensive approach, Arjana reveals how collective  memory and historical narratives influence the understanding of Islam  in postcolonial countries like Indonesia. She references her previous  books and other publications to establish a well-rounded academic  position within the field. This scholarly grounding strengthens her  analysis and adds depth to her argument, demonstrating her expertise  and the significance of memory in shaping contemporary Islamic  thought. By investigating direct experiences and interactions with  Muslim communities, she illustrates the impact of postcolonialism on  Islamic identity and practices within a global framework. Additionally,  Arjana effectively underscores the need to critique historical narratives  shaped by colonial powers, showing how collective memory can be a  powerful tool for Muslims to reconstruct their identity and pride in the  contemporary era.
