Abstract

This article examines the emergence of Sunni and Shi‘a Islam within the context of early Islamic history by exploring their theological foundations and political dynamics. The division between the two traditions originated from debates over leadership succession following the death of the Prophet Muhammad, particularly concerning the legitimacy of authority and the nature of political and religious leadership. Sunni Islam conceptualized leadership as a matter of communal consensus grounded in pragmatic governance, whereas Shi‘a Islam developed the doctrine of imamate by viewing leadership as a divinely ordained institution vested in the family of the Prophet. Through a historical and analytical approach supported by qualitative literature review, this study traces how initial political disputes gradually evolved into distinct theological systems that shaped divergent doctrines, patterns of religious authority, and collective identities. The findings demonstrate that the Sunni and Shi‘a divide cannot be understood solely as a theological disagreement, but must be situated within broader historical processes involving power, legitimacy, and sociopolitical transformation. Understanding these historical roots is essential for fostering a more nuanced and constructive engagement with sectarian differences in contemporary Islamic discourse.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the concept of ma'rifatullah in the Sufi thought of Rabi'a al-Adawiyya and to situate it within the development of Sufism in the second century Hijri. Rabi'a is regarded as an important figure who introduced divine love as the foundation of the relationship between a servant and Allah, at a time when early Sufism was predominantly characterized by asceticism based on fear and hope. This research employs a qualitative method with a library research approach, using data sources such as works on Sufi thought, biographies of Rabi'a al-Adawiyya, and other relevant scholarly literature. Data analysis is conducted through a descriptive-analytical method by interpreting Rabi'a’s ideas within the socio-intellectual context of Basrah and the dynamics of early Sufism. The findings indicate that ma'rifatullah according to Rabi'a is grounded in mahabbah, namely pure, sincere, and unconditional divine love that transcends motives of fear of punishment and hope for reward. This concept marks an important shift in Sufism from an ascetic orientation toward a Sufism of love. In conclusion, the thought of Rabi'a al-Adawiyya made a significant contribution to the development of Sufism through the purification of spiritual orientation, the affirmation of divine love as the highest spiritual station, and the strengthening of the inner dimension in the experience of knowing Allah.

Abstract

The concept of divine justice is a central theme in Islamic theological discourse and is closely related to issues of divine will, human freedom, and moral responsibility. Differences in human conditions such as social inequality, suffering, and disasters have generated ongoing theological debates regarding the meaning and manifestation of God’s justice. This study aims to analyze and compare the concept of divine justice as articulated by three major Islamic theological schools, namely Muʿtazilah, Ashʿariyah, and Maturidiyah. This research employs a qualitative approach based on library research. The data are derived from primary sources consisting of classical Islamic theological works and secondary sources including scholarly books and academic journal articles relevant to the topic. Data analysis is conducted using a descriptive comparative method to examine similarities and differences among the theological perspectives based on their epistemological and doctrinal foundations. The findings reveal that Muʿtazilah understands divine justice through a rational framework that affirms full human freedom and asserts that God is obligated to act justly according to rational standards. In contrast, Ashʿariyah conceives divine justice as entirely grounded in God’s absolute will and power, which cannot be evaluated by human reason. Meanwhile, Maturidiyah adopts a moderate position by recognizing the capacity of reason to discern moral values while ultimately subordinating it to the authority of revelation. This study demonstrates that differing conceptions of divine justice reflect the diversity of Islamic theological approaches in addressing the relationship between divine sovereignty and human moral responsibility.

Abstract

Perdebatan mengenai hubungan antara akal dan wahyu merupakan isu sentral dalam teologi Islam yang melahirkan berbagai aliran, salah satunya adalah Muktazilah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan sejarah dan prinsip aliran Muktazilah, serta menganalisis pandangannya terhadap kedudukan akal, fungsi wahyu, dan hubungan antara keduanya. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi kepustakaan (library research) dengan pendekatan teologis-filosofis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Muktazilah menempatkan akal pada posisi yang sangat tinggi sebagai sumber pengetahuan utama untuk mengenal Tuhan dan membedakan baik-buruk sebelum datangnya wahyu. Wahyu dipandang sebagai konfirmasi ilahi yang berfungsi membimbing akal dan menjelaskan perincian hukum syariat yang tidak dapat dijangkau oleh rasio semata. Hubungan antara akal dan wahyu dalam teologi Muktazilah bersifat komplementer dan harmonis; akal adalah dasar epistemologis, sedangkan wahyu adalah petunjuk yang menjaga akal agar tetap dalam koridor kebenaran ilahi.
