Penamas Journal (ISSN: 0215 - 7829 e-ISSN: 2502 - 7891) is an Indonesian journal dedicated to the study of religion and society. The journal was initially established under the name Journal Balitamas (Balai Penelitian Agama dan Masyarakat) in 1978, which was initiated by researchers from the Jakarta Religious Research and Development Center (Balai Penelitian dan Pengembangan Agama Jakarta), Ministry of Religious Affairs, which is one of the government institutions in the field of research in Indonesia. At that time, the focus of the Balitamas Journal was limited to the study of religion and religious education. Over time, considering the changes in the organisational structure in the Ministry of Religion and the number of writers from various fields of study who were interested in publishing their articles, this journal in 1987 was renamed the Penamas Journal (Penelitian Agama dan Masyarakat).
