Abstract

This paper examines the level of religious encounters among people of diverse faiths in Osogbo. It addresses the open exchange and interrelationship of adherents of different faiths within the city as well as the level of misunderstanding that exists from a Muslim perspective. The study is historical and descriptive. It is historical in the sense that it assesses newspaper reports, oral interviews, and court records while a descriptive approach was used in analyzing all the issues related to concepts and ideas of religious encounters.  It reveals that the actions and inactions of people of other faiths in Osogbo are threats to social cohesion in the community. The study shows areas of conflict with the Muslims in Osogbo despite the open relationship among people of diverse faiths. The paper, therefore, recommends that for a good relationship to be sustained in Osogbo, there is a need for adherents of the three religions to keep off confrontational approaches and embrace dialogue and mutual understanding to promote peaceful co-existence within the community.

Abstract

The motivation for this study arises from the observation that many commentators still interpret verses illustrating heaven merely as parables, without sufficiently contextualizing them to social reality. Therefore, this study remains necessary, particularly by examining the interpretations of two Indonesian mufassir from different generations: Hamka (a preacher) and Muhammad Quraish Shihab (an academic). This study is library research employing a descriptive-analysis method. The conclusions of this study indicate that both Hamka and Shihab strive to contextualize the interpretation of verses depicting heaven, contextualizing them in sociocultural paradigms and making them relevant to contemporary contexts. However, Hamka and Shihab exhibit different traits and characteristics in their interpretive approaches and narrative constructs. These differences are primarily due to Hamka's active involvement in the world of preaching, whereas Shihab operates within an academic framework. The interpretations of the verses illustrating heaven by both Hamka and Shihab are notably applicable and contextual, making them relevant to the socio-cultural context. Thus, the narratives constructed by Hamka and Shihab render the abstract and metaphysical nuances of these verses more accessible and comprehensible to the public. As Recommendation; it is necessary to create an interpretative framework for metaphysical verses based on Nusantara identity so that it can be easily understood by the audience, especially the Indonesian people.
