Abstract

This study aims to explore Al-Ghazali’s concept of happiness as elaborated in his work Kīmiyā’ al-Sa‘ādah and to critically analyze its relevance in addressing the spiritual and ethical crisis of contemporary society. The research departs from the concern that the modern understanding of happiness is largely materialistic, short-term, and psychologically fragmented, often resulting in existential anxiety and spiritual emptiness. Al-Ghazali offers a holistic framework of happiness rooted in self-knowledge (ma‘rifat al-nafs), soul purification (tazkiyat al-nafs), and spiritual ascension toward divine knowledge (ma‘rifatullāh), combining both individual and social dimensions of well-being. This research employed a qualitative descriptive-analytical method with a library research approach, using Kīmiyā’ al-Sa‘ādah as the primary source and supported by relevant academic literature and field data. The study finds that happiness in Al-Ghazali’s perspective is a transformative process that involves ethical cultivation, self-discipline, and spiritual awareness. Furthermore, it responds meaningfully to modern spiritual disconnection and the weakening of social ethics. The findings also reveal that Al-Ghazali’s conception of happiness aligns with, yet transcends, modern psychological models by integrating the vertical (God-human) and horizontal (human-human) dimensions of life. It offers not only an inner sense of peace but also serves as a foundation for moral and social harmony. Based on these findings, the study recommends the integration of Al-Ghazali’s values into spiritual education, character formation programs, and contemporary counseling practices. It also proposes further interdisciplinary research between Islamic philosophical traditions and contemporary psychological sciences to enrich the discourse on meaningful and holistic happiness in the 21st century.

Abstract

Increasingly advanced image analysis in computer vision, allowing computers to interpret, identify, and analyze pictures with accuracy comparable to humans. The availability of data sources in decimal, hexadecimal, or binary forms enables researchers to take the initiative in applying their study findings. Decimal formats are typically used on traditional computers like desktops and minicomputers, whereas hexadecimal and binary formats were utilized on single-chip controllers. Weightless Neural Network is a method that can be implemented in a single chip controller. The aim of this research is to develop a facial recognition system, for eye and mouth identification, that works in a single chip controller or also called a microcontroller. The suggested method is a Weightless Neural Network with Immediate Scan approach for processing and identifying eye and nose patterns. The data will be handled in many memory locations that are specifically designed to handle massive volumes of data. The data is made up of primary face data sheets and face input data. The data sets utilized are (x,y) pixels, and frame sizes range from 90x90 pixels to 110x110 pixels. Each face shot will be processed by selecting the region of the eyes and nose and saving it as an image file. The eye and nose will identify the face frame. Next, the photos will be converted to binary format. A magazine matrix will be used to transmit binary data from a minicomputer to a microcontroller via serial connection. Based on a known pattern, the resultant similarity accuracy is 83,08% for the eye and 84,09% for the sternum. In contrast, the similarity percentage for an eye ranges from 70% to 85% for an undefined pattern.

Abstract

Tindakan menyebarkan dan mengkomunikasikan pesan-pesan Islam merupakan esensi dakwah. Dakwah adalah istilah teknis yang pada dasarnya dipahami sebagai upaya untuk menghimbau orang lain kearah Islam. Pada konteks Indonesia agama yang tumbuh subur dan diakui oleh pemerintah bukan hanya Islam, akan tetapi terdapat juga agama lain. Indonesia bangsa yang pluralis baik itu ras, suku, budaya, golongan dan agama. Dan harus diakui sistem nilai plural merupakan suatu aturan Tuhan (sunnatullah) yang tidak mungkin berubah, diubah, dilawan dan diingkari. Barang siapa yang mencoba untuk mengingkari hukum kemajemukan sebagai suatu kenyataan hidup, maka akan timbul fenomena pergolakan yang tiada berkesudahan. Oleh karena itu dakwah di Indonesia seyogyanya dilakukan dengan mekanisme yang sesuai dengan kemajemukannya

Abstract

Sebelum kelahiran Konghucu kepercayaan agama masyarakat Tiongkok adalah Taoisme dan Buddhisme, yang mengarah pada pemujaan alam, penghormatan kepada leluhur dan pemujaan langit. Kekuatan alam dikuasai oleh Yang (tenaga laki-laki) dan Yin (tenaga perempuan). Kemudian di langit bersemayam dua kekuatan, yakni Tao sebagai sumber hukum alam dan Syangti sebagai pusat alam semesta. Dalam suasana seperti itu, Konghucu lahir pada tahun 551 SM dengan julukan Tsin atau Confusius dalam bahasa latin atau Kung Fu Tse menurut ejaan Cina yang berarti Tuan Kung. Konfusionisme yang diajarkannya lebih mengarah pada filsafat keagamaan tentang etika dan susila, yang akhirnya diakui sebagai agama Nasional. Ajaran Konghucu mengandung unsur pembentukan akhlak yang mulia bagi bangsa Tiongkok. Konghucu selalu menghindari pembicaraan tentang metafisika, ketuhanan, jiwa, dan berbagai hal yang ajaib. Namun ia tidak meragukan tentang adanya Tuhan Yang Maha Esa.

Abstract

Studi agama adalah suatu kajian sistematis dan metodologis terhadap agama-agama yang ada sebagai kajian yang terbuka dan netral, studi agama mengkaji baik dari segi asal usul keberadaannya sebagai suatu sistem keyakinan dan kepercayaan dalam konteks hubungan antar agama. Perkembangan dalam bidang studi agama sekitar antara tahun 1859 hingga tahun 1869 yang ditandai dengan terbitnya buku Darwin “the origin of species”. Setelah tahun 1869 muncul istilah “Perbandingan Agama”(comparative relegion), sebagai padanan kata bagi istilah “Studi Agama” (the science of religion). Akan tetapi sebagai sebuah disiplin ilmu, studi agama mulai mendapat perhatian yang luas dan sungguh-sungguh dirintis sejak tahun 60-an dan 70-an, sebagai suatu disiplin keilmuan setahap demi setahap memperkuat dan memperluas statusnya sebagai ”pengetahuan ilmiah” atau ”ilmu” sejak awal mula kemunculannya, Obyek kajian ilmu agama adalah semua agama , baik agama-agama masa lalu, maupun agama-agama masa sekarang, akan tetapi untuk keberlangsungan sebuah ilmu Studi agama memerlukan juga beberapa metodologi untuk memahami sebuah agama. Oleh karena itu dalam tulisan ini akan menguraikan beberaapa metodologi studi agama-agama: Metode; Teologi, Historis, Fenomenologis, Sosiologis, Antropologi dan Psikologis.

Abstract

Ring of Fire and at the intersection of three tectonic plates. Efforts are needed to minimize earthquake damage, one of which is the use of a base isolator system. This study aims to determine the effect of using High Damping Rubber Bearing (HDRB) with a diameter of 800 mm on the behavior of reinforced concrete structures in tall buildings under seismic loads. The research location is the 7-story Sapadia Hotel building in the city of Mataram. The research is conducted by analyzing a 3D model of the fixed base structure and the base isolator structure using numerical analysis. The results show an increase in the base displacement of the base isolator structure by 59% in the x-direction and 44% in the y-direction, while the inter-story displacement decreases by 36% in the x-direction and 69% in the y-direction. The use of base isolators can reduce the shear force by 35% in the x-direction and 15% in the y-direction. Based on the pushover analysis, the roof displacement values for the fixed base and base isolator structures are 0.159 m and 0.129 m respectively. These values can be used to determine the structural performance level according to ATC-40. The maximum drift value for the fixed base structure is 0.0055 m. For the base isolator structure, the maximum drift value is 0.0044 m, categorized as Immediate Occupancy (IO). This value can be used to determine the performance level of the structure based on ATC-40. The maximum drift value of the fixed base structure is 0.0055m. While in the base isolator structure, the maximum drift value is 0.0044 m which is included in Immediate Occupancy (IO). Thus, the use of base isolators in high-level buildings is able to reduce post-earthquake damage and the building is still safe to continue using.
