Abstract

This study examines Ibn Sina's cosmology as a philosophical and epistemological foundation for modern Islamic scholarship, using qualitative library research grounded in Gadamerian hermeneutics, particularly the concept of fusion of horizons. Three interrelated dimensions are analyzed. First, at the philosophical level, Ibn Sina's proof of God through Necessary Being (Wajib al-Wujud) and Contingent Being (Mumkin al-Wujud) is shown to systematize, rather than merely extend, al-Farabi's earlier framework, though its validity depends on the unproven axiom that causal regress cannot be infinite. Second, at the epistemological level, Ibn Sina's theory of knowledge mirrors his cosmological structure: the graded stages of human intellect depend on humanity's position within the hierarchy of emanation, culminating in a reading of the sublunar world's ontological fragility, governed by the Tenth Intellect, as structurally analogous to entropy in modern thermodynamics. Third, regarding relevance to modern scholarship, Ibn Sina's framework can be cautiously engaged with select contemporary questions, including fine-tuning, the anthropic principle, and Wheeler's "it from bit" hypothesis, though such engagement remains heuristic rather than a claim of equivalence or anticipation. This study concludes that Ibn Sina's enduring relevance lies not in anticipating modern science, but in the coherence of his integrated metaphysical and epistemological structure, offering an alternative narrative to materialist reductionism and inviting careful cross-disciplinary dialogue.

Abstract

This study aims to reconstruct the psychospiritual concept of al-Khauf in the second volume of the book Madarij as-Salikin by Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah and analyze its relevance in mitigating the phenomenon of modern existential anxiety. Specifically, this research seeks to address three primary questions: how the dynamics of al-Khauf are constructed within the book Madarij as-Salikin; how the internal mechanisms of al-Khauf mitigate crises of meaning and existential anxiety; and what the practical relevance of Ibn Qayyim’s thought is in building mental resilience within the era of disruption. The research method employed is qualitative with a library research approach, utilizing in-depth textual analysis of the primary source, the second volume of Madarij as-Salikin. The results indicate that Ibn Qayyim reconstructs al-Khauf not as a paralyzing passive emotion, but as a dynamic ahwal that functions as an educational "whip" to redirect individuals toward the center of their transcendent existence. The internal mechanism of al-Khauf is one alternative of mitigating the crisis of meaning by transforming worldly-neurotic anxiety into productive spiritual vigilance, while simultaneously reducing the complexity of modern restlessness by focusing fear on a single, absolute object. Ibn Qayyim’s thought offers an "Internal-Active" mental resilience model through the strengthening of inner fortresses and basirah (spiritual insight) orientation, which is highly relevant for modern individuals in building endurance amidst the uncertainties of the times. The novelty of this research lies in the specific analysis of the emotion of fear as an instrument for mitigating existential anxiety, an area seldom explored by previous researchers.
