Abstract

This study investigates the representation of love in Nizar Qabbani's poetic anthology “Qamus al-Ashiqin” through Roland Barthes' semiotic theory, with an emphasis on its mythical layer in the context of Arab culture. The research explores the use of signs and symbols that denote, connote, and mythologize love in Qabbani's poetry. Using a qualitative descriptive method and textual analysis, this study focuses on the poem titled “Qamus al-Ashiqin”. The data were collected through documentation, quoting, and close reading. Findings show that Qabbani presents love not only as a personal emotion but also as a cultural ideology, often embodying sacrifice, longing, and transcendence. The mythical meanings embedded in the poems reflect broader Arab cultural values concerning love. This research contributes to Arabic literary studies by contextualizing semiotic analysis in Arabic poetry and offers a fresh perspective on Barthes' theory within a non-Western literary tradition.

Abstract

PurposeAmong the controversial issues in the 20th  century, even today, was the Islam's relationship with modern Western culture, whether it should be rejected, accepted, or critically accepted (adaptive adoption patterns). This article discussed this topic based on a study of Salah Asuhan by Abdoel Moeis as Idonesian Novel which was published in 1928. MethodThe study was conducted using a qualitative research method based on literature research enriched by a study of scientific literature. The theory used is the theory of postcolonialism and the construction of religious moderation of Islam. Results/findingsThis research found that the Salah Asuhan Novel was a construction of the author's moderate attitude towards Islam, its relationship with modern Western culture. In it, there was not only Moeis resistance to modern Western culture as a domination and a product of colonialism, but also adaptive adoption (hybridity), in which modern Western culture in general had to be handled by sorting/selecting. The pattern of Islamic moderation in the sense of a middle way was mostly adopted by Moeis,  although moderation was also adopted in the sense of emphasizing on upholding justice, considering the public benefit, especially eliminating inhuman difficulties as a point of view.  ConclusionIn cultural issues, Moeis in the novel tended to have to not fully accept modern Western culture. For example on science and technology, humanism, including feminism, the importance of legal evidence such as marriage with a legal marriage certificate, and educational patterns that emphasize religion, but also modern science.

Abstract

Although terrorism belongs to many ideologies and religions in the world, now, terrorism in the name of Islam has swept across many regions of the world, from East to West, and has also been widely studied. However, studies on its relationship with Arabic language are lacking or even non-existent. Therefore, this article bases its exploration on a literature review methodology with a semiotic structuralism theory approach. This research found that based on Imam Samudra's book, JI/NII terrorist circles use Arabic loanword far more than mainstream moderate Islam, especially in social issues. This shows that the more Arabic loanwords, especially in Islamic socio-political texts, the more fundamentalist they are. In Imam Samudra's book, a number of Arabic words were also found which were given new connotations of a jihadist/terrorist fundamentalist nature. In addition, Imam Samudra's understanding of many Arabic loanwords such as jihad fi sabilillah (jihad in the way of Allah) is also wrong because it is not based on the context of the text and its social context as well as a standard methodology of interpretation in Islam. His jihad understanding cannot be accounted for in Islamic science and language.

Abstract

There are different approaches to Islamic Studies, one of which is the psychological approach. This approach focuses on the psychological aspects that influence the study of Islamic Studies. In its development, the psychological approach has received various criticisms, both normative and empirical, from both classical and contemporary perspectives. This research aims to explore and develop the psychological approach in Islamic Studies more comprehensively, both theoretically and practically. The research method used is library research by analyzing various literatures. Primary sources in this research include classical and modern books and articles related to psychological approach in Islamic studies. Meanwhile, other books and articles relevant to this research are used as secondary sources. The results of this study show that there is a strong connection between theory and practice in the psychological approach in Islamic studies. However, there are also aspects that are not fully aligned between the theoretical framework and its application, both in the normative and empirical areas. The psychological approach in Islamic studies has a close relationship between theory and practice, although there are fundamental differences in understanding human psychological dynamics. Theoretically, the Islamic psychological approach is different from general psychology, while empirically, its application still faces challenges in understanding human psychological dynamics. However, this approach still offers advantages in the integration of knowledge, contextual understanding, and more comprehensive data-based analysis.

Abstract

The thought and practice of Islamic politics are highly diverse, spanning various historical periods that have shaped the Islamic world. Therefore, it cannot be understood through a single perspective that may lead to biased judgments, as often done by the West. It is undeniable that throughout its history, Islam has given rise to a variety of political practices, ranging from authoritarian to democratic. This article aims to examine the treasury of classical and medieval Islamic political thought related to several issues such as the relationship between religion and state, the legitimacy of authoritarianism, forms of theocratic government, democracy, and aristocracy, as well as issues concerning the ideal society. Through this exposition, it is hoped that a more comprehensive understanding of Islamic political concepts developed during classical and medieval periods and their relevance to the present can be attained.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the asalib al-balaghah (rhetorical styles) found in selected prayers from Kitāb Bulūgh al-Marām by Ibn Ḥajar al-‘Asqalānī, focusing on three main branches of balāghah: al-bayān (figurative semantics), al-ma‘ānī (contextual semantics), and al-badī‘ (aesthetic language). This research also seeks to answer how the uslūb al-du‘ā (style of supplication) in Bulūgh al-Marām can influence emotional intelligence. This research uses descriptive-qualitative method and stylistic approach of balaghiyyah and generative transformative with the help of emotional intelligence theory. This research is a library research that searches for information through books, articles, and scientific journals. The primary source of this research is the book Bulugh al-Maram by Ibn Hajar al-‘Asqalani. The secondary sources are books and articles related to the theme of uslub al-balaghah and emotional intelligence. Data obtained from these two sources were analyzed using content analysis and comparative methods. The results show that the prayers are composed with a beautiful and rhetorical Arabic style, this beauty is seen in three elements of al-balaghah. First, the al-bayan element appears in the use of metaphors and parables that are able to evoke inner feelings. Second, the al-ma‘ani is seen from the sentence structure and word choice that is in harmony with the condition of the soul and feelings. Third, the al-badi'‘ element is present through the play of sound and the beauty of language styles that add emotional appeal. These three elements combine to create a prayer style that touches the heart and strengthens the spiritual connection between humans and God. This research also proves that asalib al-balaghah in these prayers such as al-tashbih, al-isti‘arah, al-kinayah, al- majaz, al- itnab, al-jinas, al-tibaq, al-saja’ are also factors in building emotional intelligence. The language style in these beautiful prayers is proven to instill the values of self-awareness (al-wa‘y al-dhati), self-control (dabt al-nafsi), self-motivation (al-tahfiz al-dhati), empathy (al-ta‘atuf) and social skills (al-maharat al-ijtima‘iyyah) which are fundamental aspects of emotional intelligence. Through field studies, this research also proves empirically that asa>li>b al-balaghah contained in prayers affects the psychology of its readers and the practitioners.

Abstract

The transformation of the digital public sphere has reshaped interreligious interactions and intensified identity polarization, challenging conventional approaches based solely on tolerance and regulation. In plural societies such as Indonesia, these changes influence interfaith dialogue, religious discourse in digital spaces, and social relations among religious communities. The rise of algorithm-driven fragmentation, echo chambers, and the shift of legitimacy from institutional authority to digital influence reflects a significant transformation in religious harmony governance. This study examines how interfaith interaction is patterned within Indonesia's digital public sphere and how religious harmony governance can be repositioned in response to digital identity polarization. Using a descriptive-analytical qualitative approach centred on digital discourse analysis, the study examines 96 posts and 620 user comments collected from X, YouTube, and Facebook between July and December 2025. Data were examined through reduction, coding, discourse analysis, and thematic analysis to identify dominant narratives and meaning-making processes in online religious discussions. The findings indicate that religious harmony can no longer rely solely on stability-oriented approaches based on control and reactive mediation. Instead, it requires collaborative governance that promotes trust-building, digital literacy, and the active participation of multiple stakeholders, including government institutions, religious organizations, civil society, and digital platforms. Building on these findings, the study proposes the post-tolerance era as an analytical framework and develops the Adaptive Religious Harmony Governance model, in which formal tolerance alone is treated as insufficient to sustain social cohesion. Adaptive and participatory mechanisms are needed to respond to the dynamics of digital communication and strengthen constructive interfaith engagement. Abstrak Transformasi ruang publik digital telah merekonfigurasi pola interaksi antarumat beragama dan memunculkan polarisasi identitas yang tidak lagi dapat direspons secara memadai melalui pendekatan toleransi normatif dan regulasi administratif. Dalam masyarakat majemuk seperti Indonesia, dinamika ini memengaruhi kualitas interaksi lintas iman, baik dalam bentuk dialog antaragama, pertukaran wacana keagamaan di ruang digital, maupun relasi sosial antar komunitas keagamaan. Fragmentasi wacana berbasis algoritma, menguatnya echo chamber, serta pergeseran legitimasi dari otoritas institusional menuju resonansi digital menunjukkan adanya perubahan struktural dalam tata kelola kerukunan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pergeseran paradigma kerukunan antarumat beragama menuju apa yang disebut sebagai post-tolerance era serta merumuskan model reposisi tata kelola yang adaptif dalam menghadapi polarisasi identitas digital. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif-analitik dengan fokus pada analisis wacana digital terhadap 96 unggahan utama dan 620 komentar pengguna dari platform X, YouTube, dan Facebook yang dikumpulkan pada Juli-Desember 2025. Analisis data dilakukan melalui tahapan reduksi data, kodefikasi, analisis wacana digital (digital discourse analysis), serta analisis tematik untuk mengidentifikasi pola naratif dan konstruksi makna dalam diskursus keagamaan di ruang digital. Temuan penelitian menjelaskan bahwa kerukunan antarumat beragama tidak lagi dapat dipertahankan melalui model stabilitas berbasis kontrol dan mediasi reaktif semata, melainkan memerlukan governance kolaboratif berbasis jaringan yang menekankan trust-building, literasi digital, serta keterlibatan multi-aktor yang mencakup negara, institusi keagamaan lintas iman, organisasi masyarakat sipil, dan platform digital sebagai arena interaksi antaragama. Berdasarkan temuan tersebut, penelitian ini merumuskan post-tolerance era merupakan fase transformasi konseptual dan mengembangkan model Adaptive Religious Harmony Governance, di mana toleransi formal tidak lagi cukup menjaga kohesi sosial dalam relasi lintas agama, tanpa mekanisme deliberatif yang adaptif terhadap struktur komunikasi digital dan mampu memfasilitasi dialog interfaith yang lebih partisipatif.
