Sunan Kalijaga: International Journal of Islamic Civilization
This paper aims to examine the extent to which a Muslim society in Indonesia solves its conflict. By using a Muslim society in Riau as a case study, this article argues that the society observed has a unique characteristic which may differ from other Muslim societies in other regions.

The political dimension is influential which deconstructs the meaning of charismatic leader in this society.

Since 2014, religious sentiment in Indonesian social media has been increasingly overwhelming. The strong religiosity of society leads to religious packaging to help convey any political articulation in social media mainly conducted by the Islamic civil societies. This article examines the political articulation uttered by Muhammadiyah, NU, and Muslim Cyber Army (MCA) as a representation of the democratization of Islamic civil society in responding to the contemporary political situation. Using the sentiment analysis and discursive analysis, this paper attempts to explain how Islamic organizations and groups build discourse and maintain its influence in social media as an alternative tone of political articulation. The results of this study indicate that social media has become a contested space of Islamic organizations and group to show their political position upon the government. The more an organization is close to the power the more it tends to reveal articulations that are in line with the government interest. Meanwhile, the opposing and incapable groups are securing the social media as a tool to delegitimized the authorities. The use of social media as a tool for political articulation is popular in the democratization among Islamic civil society but within the limits of democratic values applied. Social media can also be used to strengthen the discourse of religious politicisation that has the potential to contradict democratization itself.
