This article examines the cultural resistance and sharia-based environmental management in the fishing community in Aceh Timur Raya, Indonesia. Aceh is a fascinating Indonesian region as the country’s implementer of Islamic law. To date, Aceh’s environment has yet to become an issue that needs to be immediately addressed. This study is classified as field-library research with a qualitative analysis. The data were collected using interviews, documentation, and observations of fishermen’s environment in Aceh Timur Raya. These data were analyzed using a sociological approach, social theories, power-knowledge relations, and habitus. This study found several important reasons why there could be damage to Aceh Timur Raya’s ecosystems. This article has produced several vital findings; First, the absence of the role of religion in maintaining and building an ecological culture in the fishing community. Second, the attitude of indifference among the fishing community towards the environment. Third, the politicization of environmental care. These three pieces of evidence state that cultural resistance and sharia-based environmental management in Aceh threaten the community's survival, especially fishermen who rely heavily on nature. Islamic law has not been able to base its teachings on the environment that must be preserved and developed.
Religion is a practice of doctrinal values to promote social obedience and piety. In this case, the Muhammadiyah group wants to realize by building a house of worship (Mosque) as a gathering place for study, worship and deliberation, but efforts to build a mosque are subject to social discrimination, especially in Samalanga Bireun District. This article aims to identify stereotypes to the Muhammadiyah group that lead to the ban on the construction of mosques in Sangso village, Samalanga-Bireun District. This research uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach with primary data collected through interviews and observations of Muhammadiyah groups in samalanga and secondary data collected through literature studies. These findings reveal two stereotypes against the rejection of mosque construction, including wahabi and non-love sunnah. This is due to the inequality of unbalanced Power Relations.
