Abstract

Abdullah Thufail Saputra, a Pakistani-Javanese descendant, was one of the most influential figures in the spread of puritan da'wah in Solo in the 1970s and 1990s. He founded the Majlis Tafsir Al-Qur'an, which is now the largest and most massive Islamic organization in Solo. This study uses a qualitative approach. This study is complemented by essential elements such as observations, as well as in-depth interviews with some of Thufail's closest people. This study also examines some of the necessary documents, especially Thufail era brochures, MTA study recordings, and other documents. This article tries to explore Abdullah Thufail's intellectual journey, starting from his traditional educational background, changing his outlook from a traditional person to later becoming a Salafi-puritan, his missionary struggle, and how he founded and developed the MTA. This paper also discusses the struggle of MTA in accepting the sole principle of Pancasila and how MTA subsequently changed orientation after joining the New Order circle in 1984. The author also argues that the doctrine of zakat and jihad, which Thufail interpreted, became the central pillar for further MTA da'wah.

Abstract

This study described Immanuel Kant’s critique of the ontological argument, which he considered weak and flawed in proving the existence of God. Kant had been criticized by many philosophers -the philosophers who defended the ontological argument- as soon as he put forward the critique of the ontological argument. Immanuel Kant argued against the analyticity of "exists" and its status as a real predicate. He criticized ontological arguments, highlighting the distinction between logical and ontological necessity. Kant rejected attempts to derive the existence of a supreme being from concepts, stating that existence transcended conceptual boundaries. While sensory objects could be known through our senses, the existence of pure reason or thought remained unknowable without a priori knowledge. Our awareness of existence pertained to the unity of experience, and any existence beyond it was an unjustifiable illusion. In this study, someone would not disclose the critique of Kant’s critique of ontological argument.

Abstract

This study examines the pivotal role of women in the slametan tradition in Pungpungan Village, Bojonegoro, focusing on their authority in organizing, structuring, and adapting this Javanese ritual. While slametan is traditionally perceived as a male-led religious and communal event, this research reveals the significant influence women exert in determining key aspects of the ritual, particularly in food selection, scheduling, financial management, and intergenerational knowledge transmission. By exploring ethnographic accounts, this study highlights how women function as cultural custodians and ritual decision-makers, shaping both the practical and symbolic elements of slametan. The research also examines how food preparation extends beyond a domestic duty to a position of authority, with women dictating the culinary standards and ritual requirements. Additionally, the study illustrates the flexibility of slametan in adapting to contemporary sensibilities, showing how women negotiate tradition while maintaining its cultural essence. Through their expertise in managing rewang (communal labor), coordinating tahlilan, and determining religious offerings, women emerge as de facto leaders of the ritual. This study contributes to the broader discourse on gender and religious practices in Javanese Islam, challenging the perception of ritual authority as exclusively male and reaffirming the role of women as active agents in maintaining and evolving tradition.
