POS-SALAFISME DI YOGYAKARTA: PRIBUMISASI, POLITISASI, DAN LOKALISASI
Recent scholarly studies on Salafism, particularly in the context of the Middle East and North Africa, have revealed significant dynamics and transformations within the movement. Some scholars interpret these developments through the framework of Post-Salafism, which encompasses three key aspects: indigenization, re-culturation, and politicization. In the Indonesian context, although similar trends of transformation are evident, several elements central to the Post- Salafism thesis remain underexplored. In the political dimension, existing research has yet to adequately explain the dialectical interplay between Salafi political ideology and the dynamics of local realities— an essential component in understanding the politicization of Salafism. Regarding its relationship with local culture, current interpretations of the interaction between religious doctrine and cultural contexts have not sufficiently addressed the forms of reculturalization or—as I argue in this study–the localization of Salafi practices. This study aims to fill these gaps by examining how transformations within the Salafi movement unfold in relation to politics and culture. Focusing on the At-Turots Salafi network in Yogyakarta, the research investigates how Salafis engage with Indonesian politics and local culture, and to what extent such engagements reflect deeper processes of transformation. This study employs a combination of qualitative fieldwork in Yogyakarta and supplementary online data, alongside a critical reading of relevant academic literature. Yogyakarta was chosen as the material focus of this research because it is one of the key centers of the At-Turots Salafi network, while also offering unique cultural and political dynamics that enable in-depth exploration of the processes of indigenization, politicization, and localization. Field data were collected through participant observation and in-depth interviews, as well as semi-formal conversations with a range of informants, including Salafi and non-Salafi actors such as religious leaders, activists, institution managers, and ordinary members. Online data were gathered from social media platforms and digital channels used by the Salafi network. This study argues that Indonesian Salafism, as represented by the At-Turots network, has increasingly shifted toward a Post- Salafism orientation, as evidenced by the ways its activists approach local politics and culture. The political configuration of the Indonesian state—particularly its repressive policies toward Islamic movements deemed radical—has generated social forces that foster public exclusion of such groups. As a result, Salafi groups, often perceived as aligned with radical movements, have undergone transformation along three axes: identity, participatory engagement in public discourse concerning socio-political issues, and shifts in political ideology. These dynamics have intensified the Salafi movement’s engagement with local realities, indicating a form of indigenization and simultaneously contributing to the politicization of Salafism. Salafi actors no longer maintain an isolationist stance or reject participation in political debates. In their encounters with both traditional Javanese cultural practices and global capitalist culture, Salafis are compelled to negotiate their religious doctrines. These interactions are dynamic and lead to shifts in Salafi character, rendering the movement less exclusive and demonstrating greater flexibility in religious practice—one traditionally marked by strict emulation of the pious predecessors (salaf). This position enables the emergence of a new form of locality that diverges from earlier Salafi localities—an intersection and hybridization of traditional Javanese (religious) culture, global capitalist culture, and Salafi religiosity. Nonetheless, rather than describing this as re-culturation, I argue that it is better understood as a process of localization: a dynamic dialectic between Salafi religious doctrines and the local cultural landscape, in which actors actively reproduce and negotiate their religious practices within ever-shifting spaces.
