  ABSTRACT: Jemaah Tarbiyah has been part of religiopolitical movements in Indonesia since the colonial period. Over time, it has become one of Indonesia’s most influential Islamist groups, especially for its ability to progress hand in hand with Indonesian democracy. The female faction of this movement deserves much attention as they are provided generous space to express their political interest and to exercise their womanly role in their families and society. The proficiency to step in and out of the movements according to the appropriate time and space places such women as formidable sociopolitical agents in propagating Islamism within a democratic state. Aspects worth examination include self-perception of identity, intrinsic psychological and ideological factors, as well as their sociopolitical tendency. They help understand the key reasons behind the involvement of these women with Jemaah Tarbiyah and how they impact the dynamics of political conservatism in Indonesia.
