description | Experience of living as Muslim minority in a non-Muslim majority
society raises questions on religious identity. Although freedom of religion is
guaranteed in Germany, the tensions between Muslims -as individuals- and the
host society remains high. Together with the influx of Muslim population,
institutionalization of religion and transformation of global Islam, Muslims now
face new challenges in the way they construct their identities. This thesis seeks to
understand current social phenomena concerning with religious identity and
discourses maintained by Indonesian Muslims in Berlin. The method employed in
the study is based on participant observation, and interviews. Special attention is
given to the significant dynamics of the communities and to the identity of their
members. In analyzing so, the argument lies on an assumption that although living
in Berlin where global Islam encounters Western culture and idea of
institutionalized religions, Indonesian Muslims are culturally and religiously tied
with the traditions of the communities in the homeland. They are not cohesive,
and frequently import the ideas and discourses from the country of origin. |
