Abstract

At night, determining time is a little more complicated because the Sun cannot be observed directly. However, there is a unique instrument for knowing the time at night by reference to the position of the stars in the sky, namely the nocturlab. This article will discuss the history of determining the time at night with nocturlab. The method used in this research is qualitative to get an overview of Nocturlab in the past. This research shows that the Nocturlab instrument has a long development history; even though it is now a more sophisticated tool for determining time, this tool remains an essential part of astronomy and determining time in human civilization.

Abstract

Nowadays, it is very easy to find out the beginning of prayer times, because there are so many providers of prayer time schedule information, both on the internet and prayer time schedule applications. It would be more interesting if the prayer time schedule could be accessed via the WhatsApp application, which is an instant messaging application that is quite popular among the public today, so there is no need to install a special application or open a specific website to get the desired prayer time schedule. This paper aims to design a prayer time schedule information system based on WhatsApp Bot and test the verification of the current time schedule results obtained from the WhatsApp Bot. This study uses a research and development method with a descriptive approach. The results of this study are in the form of a prayer time schedule information system based on WhatsApp Bot which is built with NodeJS programming. Then from the accuracy test using the Bimas Islam website and several prayer time schedule providers, there is no difference in the results. Because the solar data used has a relatively similar level of accuracy, and the prayer time schedule calculation algorithm used is the same. So that the prayer time schedule produced by WhatsApp Bot has an accuracy that is worthy of being used as a reference for entering prayer times.

Abstract

Facing the Qibla is one of the prerequisites for valid prayer. The methods of determining the Qibla direction have been extensively explored, ranging from simple methods to using highly advanced technology. The emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, which is currently evolving, is designed to address various issues, including the Qibla direction. One of the evolving models is Natural Language Processing (NLP), which enables computers to understand human natural language. Even when given questions about the Qibla direction of a place, AI can respond with the azimuth value according to the desired city input by the user. The aim of this paper is to examine how the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in determining the Qibla direction, and to determine the accuracy of the Qibla direction produced by Artificial Intelligence. The method used in this research is a qualitative method with an experimental approach, which is used to investigate the influence of certain treatments on others under controlled conditions. In this case, primary data sources are taken from artificial intelligence given keywords (prompts) to obtain the Qibla direction of a city. Then, the results of the Qibla direction from the artificial intelligence machine (AI) are analyzed based on fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) and astronomical principles. The results of this study indicate that there is artificial intelligence that produces accurate calculations of the direction of the Qibla, namely ChatGPT, while others are still not completely accurate because the answers produced by the artificial intelligence have not applied mathematical principles in their calculations so that they cannot be relied on as a guideline in determining the direction of the Qibla. Therefore, further development is needed in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in determining the direction of the Qibla.

Abstract

Differences in determining the beginning of Qamariyah months-especially Ramadan, Shawwal, and Dhu al-Hijjah-often lead to socio-religious dynamics in Indonesia. This phenomenon reflects the tension between hisab (astronomical calculation) and rukyat (direct observation), each rooted in distinct theological and epistemological traditions within Islam. This paper aims to explore how the differences between the hisab and rukyat methods can be socially interpreted as a reflection of religious tolerance in the framework of Pancasila ideology. The study employs a qualitative approach using library research and social interpretation analysis of normative texts and social practices. The findings indicate that variations in determining the start of the lunar month should not be seen as a source of conflict but rather as a space for dialogue and respect for religious diversity. Within the context of Pancasila-particularly the third and fifth principles-tolerance toward differing religious interpretations serves as a crucial foundation for social harmony and national integration. Thus, the hisab-rukyat methods possess not only astronomical and religious dimensions but also socio-political values that support cohesion in a pluralistic society.
