Abstract

This article discusses the reinterpretation effort of the Muslim feminist movement in Malaysia, Sisters in Islam (SIS,). The article looks at the effort of the group in reinterpreting some verses of the Qur’an and hadiths on the issue of women in marital relationship which in their view had been misinterpreted by Muslim male exegetes. Using the textual analysis method, the article examines some of the works written and commissioned by the association and its authors on this issue. In four sections, the article explores four works of the association on the following issues, namely (i) Are Muslim men allowed to beat their wives?, (ii) Guardianship law and Muslim women, (iii) hadith on women in marriage, and (iv) Islam and family planning or Muslim women’s reproductive rights. While the first and second parts discuss the issue of wife beating and guardianship law and Muslim women, the third and fourth parts examine hadith on women in marriage and Islam and family planning. Through its analysis of these works, the article concludes on the note that these works were mostly influenced by the works of Muslim feminist scholars such as Amina Wadud and Fatima Mernissi and as such contain controversial reinterpretations of the verses of the Qur’an and hadiths.

Abstract

This paper analyses the issue of artificial intelligence in the light of Seyyed Hossein Nasr philosophy of humanity. It looks at the changing definition and understanding of human being in view of the fourth industrial revolution through the traditional society to the renaissance/modern period and the 21st century. It bases this analysis on the dichotomy between the promethean and pontifical man as espoused in the thought of Seyyed Hossein Nasr and went on to define man anew based on the workings of AI robots in revolution 4.0. Using the qualitative method of critical analysis, it presented the understanding of man as pontifical and promethean as defined by Seyyed Hossein Nasr.
