Negotiating Authority and Power: An Analysis of Modalities in the Divorce Trial in the Indonesian Religious Court
Purpose This study examines the negotiation and interaction of diverse powers and authorities through the uses of modalities of the Indonesian language by taking the divorce trial in a religious court as a case study. It also seeks to investigate linguistic meanings through prosodic features to provide an alternative perspective of the selected processes of the divorce trials. Methods This study uses a qualitative method utilising conversational analysis (CA) as an approach guided by Gail Jefferson’s transcription system symbols. Results/findings This study found that certain uses of modalities can function as medium to negotiate power and authority. This also shows how hierarchies, power, and authority in a religious court interplay through particular linguistic code selection of the existing interlocutors. Conclusion The modality expressions used in the divorce trial exhibit speakers’ negotiating power and authority. In a religious court, it is evident that the judges exercised their religious authority by advising the plaintiff and the defendant using the Islamic teachings. The various modalities used in the trial illustrate the negotiation of power and authority by the participants. Various emotions is expressed in the entire process of the trials. Prosodic features such as pauses, stresses, and slow and rapid paces of speech are used for specific reasons and goals.

Qadliyyah Al-Hudud fi Al-Hayah Al-Usriyyah: Tahlil Tafsir Jami' Li Ahkam al-Quran Li al-Imam al-Qurthubi (قضية الحدود في الحياة الأسرية: تحليل تفسير جامع لأحكام القرآن للإمام القرطبي)
Purpose study aims to explore the concept of hudud and its relationship with family treatment according to Imam Al-Qurtubi. Method This research employs a library research method, using documentation as a data collection technique. To analyze hudud, this study utilizes a thematic approach. This study is relevant and closely related to the interpretation of the Qur’an as it is capable of establishing sharī‘ah at any time and place, setting legal rulings that align with contemporary challenges and the diversity faced today. Results/findings Allah mentions the word hudūd in the Qur’an to refer to family boundaries, such as marital relations (ar-rafats), zihar, divorce, and inheritance distribution. These hudud are divided into two categories prescriptive hudud and prohibitive hudud. Conclusion The conclusion of the research on hudud remain applicable in the modern era as divine legislation that ensures justice and social balance. From an Islamic feminist perspective, hudud does not constitute discrimination against women but rather guarantees their rights and protection. Therefore, instead of rejecting them, hudud should be understood and implemented in ways that align with contemporary developments while maintaining principles of justice and equality, fostering a cohesive society that respects women's rights.

The Depiction of Putin’s Power and Dominance in Political Cartoons about Russia-Ukraine War
Purpose This study aimed to investigate the depiction of Vladimir Putin’s Power and Dominance in political cartoons collected from usnews.com, and identified the social contexts underlying the creation of those political cartoons. Method This research used qualitative methods which engaged in discovering and uncovering the meaning of a particular phenomenon. The sample data was three political cartoons related to the Russia-Ukraine War taken from usnews.com. It employed Multimodal Discourse Analysis (MDA) approach of Visual Grammar from Kress & Leeuwen (2006) to examine the visual mode, and Systemic Functional Grammar theory from Halliday & Matthiessen (2014) to analyze the verbal modes. Results/findings The findings showed that Vladimir Putin in political cartoons was represented as a negative powerful figure through the dominant use of the narrative process. Whilst the images of Putin as a ruthless and dictator figure were revealed in the verbal modes through the use of material, relational, and mental process. Each political cartoon's social context connects the visual and verbal modes while providing clearer information about the reason for cartoonists created these political cartoons. The partiality of the American cartoonists to the United States and Western countries also revealed through the political cartoons that worked as a medium to convey the cartoonists’ thoughts, showing that they fought against the invasion. Conclusion Through visual and verbal analysis, the cartoonist constructed a negative portrayal of Vladimir Putin as a dictatorial leader. However, this study has limitations in its scope since it does not deeply address potential variations in viewer or audience’s interpretation based on individual backgrounds and experiences. Therefore, future researchers are encouraged to expand upon this study by exploring the production and consumption of similar texts, which may offer diverse or multiple perspectives on the subject.

Discourses of Women's Movements and Struggles in Muslim Women's Mass Media in 1912-1942
Purpose This research aimed to reveal various discourses and narratives of womanhood that were popularly discussed in the era before Indonesian independence. In addition, it also tried to reveal the movement of women against oppression using writings published in various Muslim mass media. Method In this case, this research used a sociological approach and uses qualitative content analysis theory. The study made various mass media of Muslim women in 1912-1942 as the primary data sources. They were original archives that had been converted into microfilm. The data were analyzed using a sociological approach and critical discourse analysis. Findings/Result This research reveals that the oppression experienced by Muslim women both in the public and domestic spheres is the most frequently raised topic.

Muhammadiyah's Da’wa in Print Media in the Early 20th Century: A Case of Bintang Islam Magazine, 1924-1927
Purpose This research aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the Islamic outreach efforts of Muhammadiyah, one of Indonesia's largest Islamic organizations, as documented in the magazine Bintang Islam during the years 1924-1927. Method The study employs a historical method comprising four stages: heuristic, verification, interpretation, and historiography. Primary sources primarily include issues of Bintang Islam from 1924-1927, supported by relevant secondary sources such as books and journals. These sources were critically examined for authenticity, interpreted, and then synthesized into a historical reconstruction during the historiographical phase. The analysis integrates approaches from sociology of mass communication and hermeneutics, emphasizing an analytical-descriptive framework. Findings The findings reveal that Bintang Islam, founded by Muhammadiyah, served as a representation of Islamic press. Its establishment signified the continuity of modernism influenced by the Dutch East Indies and the impact of Islamic ideologies introduced by pilgrims, scholars, and the reformist ideas of Jamaluddin Al-Afghani, Muhammad Abduh, and Rashid Rida. Within Bintang Islam, Muhammadiyah figures articulated their da’wa thoughts, including efforts to counter Christianization, advocacy for renewal (tajdid), enjoining good and forbidding evil (amar ma'ruf nahi munkar), and excerpts on international da’wa activities. Conclusion In conclusion, Muhammadiyah's da’wah through Bintang Islam represents its response to widespread evangelization efforts, particularly in Java, addressing the decline in Muslim practices due to superstitions, innovations, and un-Islamic practices. It also served as a catalyst for enhancing religious, social, economic, and political awareness.

Evaluating Machine Translation of Cultural Terms: Readability Comparison Between Google and Yandex
Purpose This study aimed to analyze the readability of Google Translate (GT) and Yandex Translate (YT) translation results on dialogue texts containing cultural terms from the book Antologi Cerita Anak Indonesia (ACAI). This study evaluated the effectiveness of the Neural Machine Translation (NMT) approach in GT and the Hybrid Machine Translation (HMT) approach in YT in conveying text meanings clearly and comprehensibly to readers. Method This research employed a cloze test involving 28 participants aged 18-24 years, along with a questionnaire to assess user preferences regarding GT and YT translation results. Text readability was analyzed using the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level and Gunning Fog Index to measure the linguistic complexity of the translations. Results/Findings The study results show that GT's readability reaches 81.1%, while YT's readability is 74.5%, both categorized as the independent level according to Rankin & Culhane's (1969) criteria. Additionally, 80% of the 20 questionnaire respondents stated that GT's translations were clearer than those of YT. Analysis using the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level and Gunning Fog Index shows that the readability level of GT and YT translations is classified as advanced suitable for readers with a minimum education level equivalent to a bachelor's degree. Conclusion This study showed that GT has a higher readability level than YT, which might be because of its use of NMT, producing more natural sentence structures. Meanwhile, YT, which also relied on SMT, translates based on statistical patterns, making its translations more rigid. Although both systems could produce comprehensible translations, they still struggled with accurately translating cultural terms without additional context. Therefore, human involvement remained essential to improving accuracy and contextual appropriateness in machine translation.
Abjection towards Women by Tribes and the State in the Niduparas Erlang’s Burung Kayu
Purpose This research aimed to reveal the process of abjection experienced by women by the tribes and the state with its developmentalism ideology in the Burung Kayu by Niduparas Erlang. It also explores the implications of these two regimes, which ultimately contribute to women’s abjection. Method This research employed notetaking and literature review techniques for collecting the data. Linguistic data depicting abjection in the novel were interpreted by the researcher according to Julia Kristeva’s theory of abjection. The analysis was supplemented with findings from previous research. Results/findings This research presented several findings. Women experienced abjection because the Mentawai tribe practiced a paternalistic culture. This culture reinforced abjection towards women, especially when state intervention with developmentalism ideology was introduced. This development did not provide opportunities for women. Women were abjected as they adhere to their husbands’ will, rather than their own desires. This research sheded light on the fact that although the tribal and state regimes might seem contradictory, they fundamentally reinforce each other in positioning women as abject. Conclusion This research concluded that abjection was multidimensional, as gender intersected with tribal and state elements supported by developmentalism ideology.

The Representation of Mimicry in the Short Story Al-Maliku an-Najar by Kamel Kaylani: A Postcolonial Study
Abstract Purpose This article aims to reveal how mimicry, as a strategy of imitating colonial culture, is reflected in the short story Al-Maliku an-Najjār by Kamel Kaylani, particularly in four main aspects: knowledge, livelihood, worldview, and lifestyle. Method This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection conducted through literature review and text analysis. The data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman method, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The corpus of this study is the short story Al-Maliku an-Najjār by Kamel Kaylani, based on the edition published by the Hindawi Foundation in 2013. This article adopts one of the postcolonial concepts introduced by Homi K. Bhabha, namely mimicry. Results/Findings The findings of this study indicate that in the aspect of knowledge, the main character, Batrus, imitates Western scientific methods and ways of thinking to acquire technical skills in shipbuilding. In terms of livelihood, Batrus disguises himself as an ordinary worker and adopts the work ethic typical of the working class. Regarding worldview, a dilemma emerges between colonial modernity and indigenous cultural identity. Meanwhile, in terms of lifestyle, Batrus adapts to the habits of the working class as a form of social adaptation. Conclusion Mimicry in Al-Maliku an-Najjār is not merely passive imitation but a complex adaptation strategy that creates space for new identities. While it reflects colonial dominance, mimicry also provides an opportunity for the colonized subject to engage in subtle cultural resistance.

The Authenticity of Qur’anic Codification: A Critique of Theodor Noldeke's Perspective
Purpose This research aimed to reveal the integrity of Utsman bin Affan and the authenticity of the Qur'an by the three parameters of integrity: Honesty, Consistency, and Courage, and three parameters of authenticity: Continuity, credibility, and symbolism. It also involved the criticism study of Theodor Noldeke’s View about the codification of The Qur’an. Method This research employed a qualitative library approach to analyze Theodor Noldeke's views on the codification of the Qur'an. The analysis method consists of two steps: first, a descriptive analysis of Noldeke's intellectual background and the concepts of integrity and authenticity; second, a comparative analysis of the codification of the Qur'an from the perspectives of Muslim and Western scholars. Results/findings There were integrity factors in Utsman bin Affan, namely honesty and trustworthiness in behaviour, consistency in action, and courage and responsibility in making decisions. Utsman bin Affan was a caliph with integrity, so all the policies he issued towards the codification of the Qur'an guaranteed authenticity. Conclusion Although Theodor Noldeke argued that the Qur'an codification policy of Utsman bin Affan was inauthentic and has many problems with it, this statement was considered incorrect due to differences in research methods used, as well as differences in the history of the Qur'an and the Bible.

Purpose Among the controversial issues in the 20th century, even today, was the Islam's relationship with modern Western culture, whether it should be rejected, accepted, or critically accepted (adaptive adoption patterns). This article discussed this topic based on a study of Salah Asuhan by Abdoel Moeis as Idonesian Novel which was published in 1928. Method The study was conducted using a qualitative research method based on literature research enriched by a study of scientific literature. The theory used is the theory of postcolonialism and the construction of religious moderation of Islam. Results/findings This research found that the Salah Asuhan Novel was a construction of the author's moderate attitude towards Islam, its relationship with modern Western culture. In it, there was not only Moeis resistance to modern Western culture as a domination and a product of colonialism, but also adaptive adoption (hybridity), in which modern Western culture in general had to be handled by sorting/selecting. The pattern of Islamic moderation in the sense of a middle way was mostly adopted by Moeis, although moderation was also adopted in the sense of emphasizing on upholding justice, considering the public benefit, especially eliminating inhuman difficulties as a point of view. Conclusion In cultural issues, Moeis in the novel tended to have to not fully accept modern Western culture. For example on science and technology, humanism, including feminism, the importance of legal evidence such as marriage with a legal marriage certificate, and educational patterns that emphasize religion, but also modern science.
