This dissertation explores the formation of glocal Islam in a rural Muslim community on Bangka Island, Indonesia, through an ethnographic study of Payabenua village. It examines how global Islamic discourses are locally negotiated, reinterpreted, and embedded within established religious traditions. The study highlights the role of educated youth as cultural brokers who employ framing, moral negotiation, and everyday tactics to introduce new religious meanings while maintaining social harmony and respect for traditional authority. The findings demonstrate that religious transformation in rural Southeast Asia unfolds through compromise and contextual adaptation, producing a hybrid Islamic religiosity shaped by local norms and transnational influences.
