In the Indonesian context, Solo is interesting because some radical Islamism groups have emerged in the region Pondok Ngruki, Front Pemuda Islam Surakarta (FPIS), and others. One basic assumption is that Solo is prolific for radical Islamism groups. This paper will explores and maps the nature of Islam, especially radical, in Solo. Obviously, political conduciveness at the national level is not the only factor supporting the peculiarity of the city. Some historical and sociological accounts of the city are also necessary to study to thoroughly understand this phenomenon. The heavily abangan (nominal Muslims) majority of the city has been deprived by ethnic, economic and political factors. On the other hand, the intense dakwah (proselytizing) conducted by some Islamic groups has given rise to instant Muslims who see Islam as the ultimate solution to their problems. The call of jihad, shariah, and contentious politics are among the ways some radical Islamists endeavour for the victory of Islam.
