Abstract

This article presents a comparative study of the Islamic reformist thought of Jamaluddin al-Afghani and Muhammad Abduh as responses to European colonialism and the epistemological crisis facing the Muslim world in the nineteenth century. Although both figures are often treated as representatives of a homogeneous intellectual tradition, this study reveals fundamental divergences in their epistemological foundations, reform agendas, and methods of change. Employing a qualitative library research approach with historical, analytical, and comparative methods, this study finds that al-Afghani constructed a politically militant epistemology that positioned reason as an instrument of resistance against colonial hegemony, while Abduh developed a more systematic theological rationalism emphasizing the harmonization of reason and revelation. Regarding their reform agendas, both agreed that Islamic revival does not entail Westernization, yet differed in their priorities: al-Afghani privileged top-down political transformation, whereas Abduh prioritized bottom-up educational and institutional reform. The study concludes that these two approaches are complementary rather than contradictory, and that both remain highly relevant for contemporary Muslim societies, particularly Indonesia, in addressing the challenges of radicalism, intolerance, and modernization.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and compare the hadith thought of Syekh Nuruddin Marbu Al-Makki Al-Banjari and Ustadz Yazid bin Abdul Qadir Jawas from methodological, epistemological, and practical perspectives. Both scholars represent contemporary Indonesian hadith scholars with different intellectual backgrounds and scientific orientations, yet both are highly influential in Indonesian hadith discourse. Sheikh Nuruddin Marbu represents the Haramain scholarly tradition rooted in the classical Nusantara scholarly chain of transmission (sanad), while Ustadz Yazid Jawas represents the Salafi orientation based on the methodology of contemporary Saudi Arabian scholars. This study employs a comparative-descriptive method, with critical discourse analysis applied to the primary works of both scholars. The results show fundamental differences in: (1) the epistemology of hadith acceptance, where Sheikh Nuruddin emphasizes sanad transmission and scholarly ijazah, while Ustadz Yazid focuses on matn authenticity based on Wahabi-Salafi jarh wa ta'dil criteria; (2) hadith criticism methodology, where Sheikh Nuruddin adopts an eclectic approach integrating classical and contemporary scholarly perspectives, while Ustadz Yazid tends to selectively follow scholars aligned with the Salafi orientation; (3) the application of hadith in Indonesian socio-religious contexts, where Sheikh Nuruddin is more accommodative toward local traditions, while Ustadz Yazid is more textualist-purificatory. This research contributes by filling the gap in comparative hadith research between traditionalist and Salafi Indonesian scholars, a topic that has not been previously studied with these specific figures.
