Abstract
This article seeks to revisit the discussion of Javanese Islam from an alternative point of view. It argues that the presentation of Javanese Islam in the previous studies is no longer adequate to accommodate the most current transformation ofJavanese Islam. The identity of Javanese Islam can neither be seen from syncretic point of view nor normative perspectiveper se, since the identity of Javanese Islam has transformed itself into something different from the past. Becoming an abanganor santriin the post-Geertz era, represents the making of a religiously hybrid identity. In the context of Geertz, to become an abanganmeans he/she cannot become a santriat once. At that time, a pure and puritan abangan, was hardly a practicing Muslim, but nominal Muslim. Becoming a santri, on the other hand, had to be done by disentangling any type of identity in kejawensense. Javanese Islam has to do with whatever-you-like mentality that forms a hybrid identity among the Javanese Muslims
