Negotiating modesty in Indonesia : Muslim women influencers and digital entrepreneurship on Instagram
Asya Dwina Luthfia; Bhirawa Anoraga (Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia, 2025-07-31)
This study examines how young Muslim women influencers in Indonesia transform modest fashion into a form of digital entrepreneurship on Instagram. Focusing on two case studies—@denaahaura, who runs the brand Minimslm, and @sashfir, founder of Lafiye—it explores how modesty is interpreted, styled, and commodified in visually distinct yet equally strategic ways. Drawing on digital ethnography and visual analysis, the research shows how belief, branding, and business are entangled in the everyday labor of self-presentation. Dena presents modesty as a fixed moral stance, rooted in da’wah affiliations and political values, and embeds this position into the architecture of her brand. In contrast, Sashfir maintains a modest personal image while allowing her brand to engage a broader visual spectrum—where modesty is ambient, aesthetically flexible, and shaped by market sensibilities. By situating these practices within the context of Indonesia’s Muslim-majority digital culture, the study contributes to existing debates on modest fashion, entrepreneurial femininity and hijaber respectability, while also challenging Global North-centric narratives by foregrounding Southeast Asian perspectives on influencer labor, visual piety, and commercial agency.
From polemic to reform : comparative analysis on the trajectory of Q. 3:7 English translation from Early European to Indian Muslim period (17th-20th century)
Ahmad Bayu Setiawan; Akhmad Mughzi Abdillah (Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia, 2025-07-21)
Quran translations have been a complex enterprise that is still being produced worldwide. One of the intriguing issues is the translation of certain significant Quranic verses, such as Q.3:7, which reveals deep hermeneutical and grammatical divides within Islamic scholarship. This research aims to answer two main questions: 1) How has Q. 3:7 been translated in the early English European and Indian subcontinent Muslim translator context? To what extent do these translations illustrate variation, and what do such variations reveal about theological, linguistic, and interpretive priorities in different historical and cultural contexts? And 2) To what extent does the English translation of Q.3:7 reflect the existing Quran exegetical scholarship on the verse? This thesis is a library research using discourse analysis. It adopts a panoramic framework for analysing trends, continuity, and changes within specific topics by comparing a wide range of translations. This research compares six Quran translations from two main groups of translators, namely, early European and Indian subcontinent Muslims. As the post-colonial approach in translation studies proposes, the Indian Muslim translator shows a reformist-rationalist approach to Quranic translation by reclaiming the authority and shifting from a Western perspective toward Islamic exegetical tradition. As a result, European translators often viewed the Qur’an through legalistic or polemical lenses, whereas Indian Muslim translators emphasised rationalism, reformist spirit, and interpretive agency. Drawing on Tejaswini Niranjana’s postcolonial translation theory, this thesis argues that Qur’an translation is a site of discursive contestation between Western Orientalism and postcolonial reformism.
Transition to comprehensive sexual and reproductive health services in the era of climate disaster threats in Indonesia : analysis of policy gaps in the reproductive health sector in Indonesia's national health crisis response guidelines
Agus Firmansyah; Sonny Mumbunan (Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia, 2025-09-04)
The Indonesian health sector faces unprecedented challenges as the frequency and intensity of natural disasters such as floods and droughts increase due to climate change. These disasters disproportionately disrupt sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services, threatening the well-being and rights of women, adolescents, and other vulnerable groups. In response, Minister of Health Decree No. HK.01.07/Menkes/1502/2023 established the National Guidelines for Health Crisis Management, marking an important step toward strengthening disaster response for SRH. However, critical policy gaps remain, particularly the limited distribution of reproductive health kits (RH Kits) and the absence of mechanisms to empower communities to assess their own SRH needs during crises. A comprehensive policy analysis shows that current protocols, which limit the distribution of RH Kits to major disasters, are not aligned with international best practices such as the Minimum Initial Service Package (MISP). These global standards advocate for flexible and context-sensitive SRH interventions from the onset of a humanitarian emergency, regardless of its scale. Additionally, the absence of community-based self-assessment training results in delays and low effectiveness in the delivery of SRH services, particularly in Indonesia's vast and disaster-prone regions. This study recommends two transformative policy and program shifts to address these challenges. First, Indonesia needs to adopt a more detailed disaster classification system, enabling the deployment of tailored and timely Reproductive Health Kits (RH Kits) for minor, moderate, and major events. Second, the country should institutionalize community-based self-assessment training, leveraging local leaders, peer educators, and digital tools to empower individuals and families to identify and communicate their SRH needs quickly. This strategy requires strong multi-stakeholder collaboration, sustainable resource allocation, and continuous monitoring and evaluation to ensure effectiveness and sustainability. Implementing these recommendations will not only improve the timeliness and equity of SRH service provision during disasters but also strengthen Indonesia's commitment to health equity, gender rights, and international humanitarian standards. By integrating flexibility, inclusivity, and community participation into health crisis management, Indonesia can become a regional leader in climate-resilient public health, ensuring that no one is left behind as climate risks increase.
Impact of climate-induced drought on sexual and reproductive health services : a comparative policy analysis from East Nusa Tenggara and Turkana county
Manzoor, Zainab; Muhammad Akbar Rahmadi; Sonny Mumbunan (Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia, 2025-07-31)
This report examines the impact of climate-induced drought on the sustainability of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services, with a particular focus on maternal healthcare and contraceptive access in two drought-prone and resource-limited regions: East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) in Indonesia and Turkana County in Kenya. The study employs a comparative case study approach, analysing secondary data from 2008 to 2023 to assess how prolonged drought conditions affect key SRH indicators, including antenatal care (ANC), skilled birth attendance (SBA), and modern contraceptive use. Findings reveal that both regions exhibit significant service delivery challenges during droughts, including decreased ANC and SBA coverage, reduced contraceptive uptake, and increased food insecurity, all of which disproportionately affect women and adolescent girls. In Turkana, drought has led to severe declines in skilled birth attendance, while NTT continues to lag in maternal health indicators due to geographic isolation and systemic underinvestment. The policy analysis of Kenya’s Health Sector Disaster Risk Management Plan (2014–2018) and Indonesia’s MoH Regulation No. 75 of 2019 concerning Health Crisis Management reveals critical gaps in disaster preparedness and the integration of SRH services, as both frameworks lack specific guidance on maternal health continuity, emergency contraception, and SRH monitoring. While Kenya focuses on emergency response strategies, such as mobile clinics and dignity kits, Indonesia emphasizes long-term solutions, including midwife training and community outreach initiatives. The report concludes that a hybrid approach combining rapid response with sustained health system strengthening is essential for building climate-resilient SRH services. Key recommendations include integrating the Minimum Initial Service Package (MISP) into national health sector frameworks, improving contraceptive supply chains, tracking sexual and reproductive health (SRH) data during crises, and strengthening coordination between disaster management and health ministries. By implementing these measures, governments and health actors can better safeguard reproductive health rights and ensure continuity of care in the face of growing climate threats.
