Abstract

Moderatism is an essential foundation for religious expression among religious people in various fields of life, both in understanding and application. As part of the religious community, Mutakallimin from the classical to contemporary eras have provided valuable experiences for other Muslims. This paper aims to explore the experiences of the Mutakallimin regarding moderatism in the classical and contemporary eras. The writing method in this study uses literary methods and approaches to classical and contemporary Islamic literature. The results of the study explain that the Mutakallimin has demonstrated moderatism experiments marked by the emergence of the Khawarij Ibadiyah sect, Moderate Murjiah, Moderate Shia, the Mu'tazilah conception of rationality, the balance between Jabariyah and Qadariyah which is explored in the face of Asy'ariyah and Maturidiyah, as well as contemporary Kalam reform models which are based on theocentric and anthropocentric Kalam domains.

Abstract

Neo-Orientalism, as a new form of epistemic colonialism, continues to shape the representation of Malay Islam in Indonesia and Malaysia through narratives of marginality, essentialism, and Western global discourse hegemony. This study conducts a comparative analysis of intellectual responses by key figures in both countries to this knowledge hegemony. In Indonesia, Nurcholish Madjid and Abdurrahman Wahid employed critical accommodation strategies by Islamizing values of democracy and pluralism. Azyumardi Azra engaged in epistemic negotiation by reconstructing historical networks of ulama to reject the “peripheral Islam” narrative. In Malaysia, Chandra Muzaffar negotiated critiques of Western bias in human rights discourse, while Syed Naquib al-Attas promoted radical epistemic resistance through the Islamization of knowledge based on adab and tawhid. Haedar Nashir in Indonesia rejected the “moderate vs radical” categorization as a neo-Orientalist project. The analysis reveals that Malay Islam is not anti-modernity but actively Islamizes modernity. Differences in strategies reflect national contexts, yet their synthesis forms an alternative civilization model that is tolerant and cosmopolitan. This research proposes a decolonization model for Malay Islamic knowledge that integrates accommodation, negotiation, and resistance for an independent scholarly future. (198 words)

Abstract

The integration of digital technology within the Islamic education ecosystem faces a substantive challenge: the dominance of a pragmatic-instrumental approach that often overlooks the foundational values and epistemology of Islam. This gap risks eroding education's holistic function as a process of tarbiyah and ta'dib. This research aims to construct an integrative epistemological framework to bridge this dichotomy, ensuring digital transformation aligns with Islamic ethical and epistemic frameworks. The method employed is a critical integrative literature review, which critically synthesizes Western critical theories—such as surveillance capitalism and algorithmic governmentality—with foundational Islamic epistemic paradigms, namely Maqāṣid al-Sharī'ah and the Bayani-Burhani-Irfani trilogy. The study successfully formulates an intermethodological model that connects these two intellectual traditions. This model generates operational guiding principles, such as Digital Data as Amanah (trust) and Holistic Anti-Reductionism, designed to mitigate the risks of student data commodification and the reduction of educational goals to mere quantitative indicators. The research concludes that a value-based digital integration, grounded in this epistemic synthesis, is not merely important but essential for cultivating contemporary, excellent Muslim human resources: those who are proficient and critical in digital spaces (digital proficient), sovereign in thinking and knowledge acquisition (epistemically sovereign), and possess spiritual and moral resilience (spiritually resilient) amidst the currents of modernity.
