Abstract

After the spread of Islam in a wide area, and the concept of monotheism had been known by most people, another teaching emerged. The teaching was against the principles of monotheism. The teaching that emerged in the second century of Hijra, called for polytheism and was influenced by Hinduistic teaching especially that of reincarnation. One of its teaching was refusal of revelation and prophecy. Since then, the debate on this issue emerged between its supporters and its opponents. At this condition al-Farabi came and try to combine between religion and philosophy. Al-Farabi's concept on prophecy was much influenced by Aristoteles concept of dream. Even though, Al-Farabi raised a different thought from that of Aristoteles. According to Aristoteles, dream cannot be part of revelation While al-Farabi saw that human being with his or her imagination could relate to the "heaven", and could uncover the concealed curtain. Furthermore, he saw that a dream could explain prophecy as well as revelation in the far limit. He also saw that prophet had a divine power as result of the revelation he received. From his point of view, it may be concluded that Al-Farabi put himself in the middle position, between reason and revelation and between philosophy and religion. [Setelah Islam (dengan ajaran tauhidnya) tersebar di wilayah yang luas, ajaran tauhid yang dibawanya banyak dianut orang, muncul pemikiran-pemikiran dan ajaran-ajaran yang menentang prinsip-prinsip ajaran tauhid. Ajaran-ajaran tersebut muncul pada abad ke II Hijrah yang mengajak kepada politheisme. Ajaran-ajaran ini muncul terutama di Persi dengan membawa warna Hindu yaitu ajaran reinkamasi. Salah satu pokok ajarannya adalah penolakan terhadap wahyu dan kenabian, Dari sini muncullah pendekatan-pendekatan antara pendukung dan penolak wahyu dan kenabian. Dalam situasi yang penuh dengan perdebatan dan pertentangan ini muncullah Al-farabi yang berusaha mencari jalan tengah antara filsafat dan agama. Pandangan Al-Farabi tentang kenabian banyak dipengaruhi oleh pandangan Aristoteles tentang mimpi. Meskipun demikian ada perbedaan asasi antara Al-Farabi dan Aristoteles. Aristoteles berpandangan bahwa mimpi tidak mungkin menjadi bagian dari wahyu llahi. Sementara itu Al-Farabi berpendapat bahwa manusia dengan daya imajinasinya dapat berhubungan dengan "alam yang tinggi" serta dapat menyingkap tabir gaib. Selanjutnya dia berpendapat bahwa mimpi dapat menjelaskan kenabian dan wahyu sampai batas yang jauh. Al-Farabi juga berpandangan bahwa seorang nabi mempunyai kekuatan Ilahiyah yang merupakan hasil dari wahyu yang diterima. Dari pandangan-pandangan yang dimunculkan, dapat disimpulkan bahwa  Al-Farabi menempatkan dirinya di posisi tengah antara akal dan wahyu atau antara agama dan filsafat. Dari sini dia telah memberikan dalil-dalil ahli tentang kenabian.

Abstract

Along with development of era, there are many problems of Muslim peoples that did not exist in Prophet’s Era of Muhammad SAW. These problems require an exact and quick solution. One of the media that possible as solution is tajdid and ijtihad. Tajdid is retrieval effort of Islamic doctrine and precepts that have been forgotten or abandoned by Muslims and then reformed to be better. Tajdid is not create some new doctrines in Islam, but restore it to Prophet’s Era of Muhammad SAW and the Four of Caliphs with considering to the situation and condition. Meanwhile, ijtihad is outpouring all powers and abilities to formulating and applying Islamic laws in branch issues and problems that appears in Islamic laws. The problem that occurred is similarization between tajdid’s movement and modernization that affiliated to the western secular tradition. Whereas, the meaning between both of it too different so that brings the different implication if it applied in Islam. The modernization in Islam is a movement to integrated Islam and modern sciences (western). As a consequence, Islam has to adapt its doctrines and principles to what western wants. The effect of this movement will undermine the principles of Islam and induce Muslim people to concede the values of western modernity. Surprisingly, many Muslim scholars using this western’s modernization method into Islamic thought. On the basis of this situation, this paper try to reveals the fundamental differences between tajdid and modernization, and then criticizes the modernization that used by some Muslim scholars.

Abstract

There were various explications of the concept of tawhid presented by Muslim scholars in the past, especially among mutakallimun and falasifah, but most of them emphasized on the unity of essence, attribute activities. Ibn Taymiyyah is one of the most celebrated Muslim theologians and regarded by some as mujaddid or reformer on Islamic theological thought. His reformative thought could be discerned from his concept oftawhid, which is deemed unique and worthy of further studies. However, it is not only of his concept that he was regarded as reformer, but also his framework of theological studies. The method employed in this research is literary studies, yet it is also supported by historical, descriptive, inductive and critical analytical method. The finding of this research is that Ibn Taimiyyah’s concept of tawhidconsists of unity of God, unity of Allah worship and the unity of essence and attribute. The first means the belief existence of God as the Creator; the second is the manifestation of belief in the form worship by heart, speech and good deed; the last one is belief in the perfect attributes of Allah based on the Qur’an and Sunnah. He also emphasized that one who does not believe in these three kinds of tawhid, or believe only in the unity of God could not save from the Hell. Regarding the framework, Ibn Taymiyyah restricts that the theological discourses should commit to the Qur’an and Hadits, rely on rational capacity of man, rebuff kalam interpretation and prever revelation from reason.

Abstract

The philosophers and theologians for a long time, have been conducting a series of intense discourse on many issues from the perspective of tasawuf. Of course, in this regard, they use a theoretical basis and practical rationale. This article, describes the discourse above in the two different conversations perspective, between tasawuf Sunni and tasawuf falsafi. Tasawuf sunni group are represented by Al-Ghazali and al-Qushayri, confronted by Ibn Arabi and Ibn Sab’in from tasawuf falsafi group. Through a descriptive exploratory study, the researcher asserts that Al-Ghazali divides tauhid into four, tauhid of hypocrites, Muslims majority, muqarrabin, and siddiqin, all are based on ahl sunnah wa alJama’ah faith. While Al- ushayri, divides it into three; tauhid al-haq li al-haq, tauhid al-haq li al-khalq, and tauhid al-khalq li al-haq, all are based on empirical aspects of Irfani. In his study, the author concludes that tasawuf Sunni, focuses mainly on the issue of al-fana and wihdah al-syuhud in order to reach a peak of makrifah. Meanwhile, taswuf falsafi declares the existence of monoexistence, that is, human beings and God is one, similar to (wihdah al-wujud). Man is united with God expressed usually in the form syatahat. The implication is no taklif for humans.

Abstract

The principles of salafiah approach can be summarized into three distinguished characteristics: first is comprehension, second is authenticity or originality and not imitation (taqlid), while the last is improvement or progress and not conservatism. Salafiah is in fact not inconsistent with the progress and improvement, while their calling for returning to the original and main sources is approved by the religion and not in contradiction with the reality of Muslim. Moreover, it is a valid approach in achieving a better life in this world and hereafter. The objectives of salafiah are to purify the faith from the heresies (bid’ah), to educate Islamic personality, to open human mind to accept all the new in the fields of the experimental sciences, and to establish the faith from its sources which is far from the emerging narrow-minded religion sects recently. Finally, the salafist open widely to the experimental sciences, to the uses of scientific results, to the great invention in industrial sector and to the modern technology as they are very useful to support and sustain the Islamic teachings in the context of a more beautiful life with a less difficulties.
Benarkah Kita Murji’ah? Catatan atas Artikel Prof. Dr. Fauzan Saleh Amal Fathullah Zarkasyi

Abstract

This is a special note on the article written by Fauzan Saleh entitled Kita Masih Murji’ah: Mencari Akar Teologi Pemahaman Umat Islam Indonesia published in Tsaqafah Volume 7, No. 2, October 2009. The author notes that the article could plunge Muslims to the wrong conception. Fauzan begins his article on Caliph Uthman’s nepotism when designating Amr bin Ash as governor of Egypt, Mua’wiyah as governor of Sham and Sa’ad bin Abi Waqas as governor of Iraq and Persia. Further this article notes concerning the definition of Ahl al- Sunnah wa al-Jama’ah. In addition, the author sees Fauzan does not fully understand this concept. Thus, because he classified both Maturidist and Asy’arist only into this group, without explaining their true set of belief. Actually the truth about Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jama’ah is the groups who have unanimity in beliefs, traditions and the status of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and the the very righteous people among Muslims in Islam. They are the prophet’s companions and Tabi’in (followers), and the schoolars who followed their guidance, and their way in terms of faith, words, and deeds until the Day of Judgment. From this point of view, the criticism persists about the actors a great sin whereby this article parsed differences between Ahlusunah and Murji’ah. According to the author, Fauzan has been on failure when he drew a hasty conclusion at the similarity belief of Murji’ah and Ahlusunah, whereas Ahlusunah’s creed is just a continuation of Murji’ah’s. As clearly written in Fauzan’s conclusions of the article, despite Murji’ah creed is no longer known at this time, but this concept still remains sustainable in Islamic theology.

Abstract

This article examines the philosophy of Western pragmatism since pragmatism is considered to be a real threat to human civilisation. It happens because pragmatism, as a philosophy, makes empirical facts and usefulness as the basis of everything. Thus, it fosters a sceptical attitude towards everything, doing things based on certain benefits, and ignoring norms as well as religious values. This study is a literature study since it examines various sources (books and scientific articles) analysed with a socio-historical approach with Kalâm jadîd science as the basis. The study focuses on the critical analysis on the concepts of knowledge, truth, morals and religion of the philosophy of pragmatism. This study shows that the concept of the philosophy of pragmatism is extremely contrary to Islamic values and teachings. Firstly, pragmatism has its own concept of truth, where empiricism and coherence of ideas and reality determine the value of a truth. Secondly, knowledge will be considered relevant as a scientific discipline if it is able to have a direct impact on and value or benefits for human life. Thirdly, religion and morals are realised as actions done according to human will.

Abstract

Religious diversity in Indonesia is confronted with two significant challenges. The first is the challenge posed by those who espouse radical or liberalist views, while the second is the refraction of religious pluralism by those who equate its main objectives. Consequently, the presence of religious moderation represents a viable approach to fostering tolerance and harmony between religious communities. The objective of this research is to examine the values of religious moderation in the context of al-Wasathiyyah al-Islamiyyah, with a view to identifying potential solutions. This type of research is a literature review (LR) that analyses and synthesises the strengthening of religious moderation according to al-Wasathiyyah al-Islamiyyah. Accordingly, to buttress this line of inquiry, the researcher has adopted a descriptive-analytical approach, complemented by a religious phenomenology methodology. The findings of this study indicate that al-Wasathiyyah al-Islamiyyah is characterised by a set of prioritised indicators, namely the maintenance of al-Maqashid asy-Syari’ah on religious freedom, unity on the purpose of life, unity on life guidelines, and unity on human diversity. In order to maintain the unity of multicultural Indonesian society, it is necessary to create an atmosphere of justice, peace, harmony and tolerance. This will enrich the inclusive and progressive Islamic discourse in the contemporary era.

The type of diseases will elaborate from the Western point of view through anthropological and psychiatric perspectives along with the cure or therapy that is given to the patient who suffering from the disease in providing therapeutic healthcare. The researchers found that there is direct relationship between the heart-rhythm patterns and spectral information encoded in the frequency spectra of the magnetic field radiated by heart. The human body is replete with mechanisms for detecting its external environment. Sense organs, the most obvious example, are specifically geared to react to touch, temperature, select ranges of light, sound waves, etc. these organs are acutely sensitive to external stimuli. Every cell in our bodies is bathed in an external and internal environment of fluctuating invisible magnetic forces So, when patient having touch from professional healer (ṭabīb al-rūhī), it will be affected to his organs and help him to get speed recovery from physical disease or mental disorder by the permission of Allah Almighty.
