Abstract

This research explores the historical emergence of the Khawarij and Murji’ah sects within early Islamic history, aiming to understand their origins, doctrinal differences, and impacts on Islamic thought. The study addresses the primary research question: how did the Khawarij and Murji’ah sects arise, and what were the key theological and political factors that influenced their development? Utilizing a historical-analytical method, this research examines primary sources, including early Islamic texts and historical records, as well as secondary scholarly analyses. The findings reveal that the Khawarij emerged as a radical faction following the Battle of Siffin, emphasizing strict piety and rejecting any form of sin among leaders, whereas the Murji’ah advocated a more lenient stance, deferring judgment of sinners to God. The study concludes that the Khawarij and Murji’ah significantly shaped early Islamic discourse on faith, leadership, and community, leaving a lasting legacy on Islamic jurisprudence and theology. This research highlights the complex interplay of theology and politics in the formation of early Islamic sects, providing deeper insights into the dynamics of religious movements.

Abstract

This article focuses on studying and analyzing in depth the mechanisms of the political system in the superstructure and infrastructure. The political system is defined as a collection or total of various activities in the country related to the public interest, including the process of determining goals, efforts to realize goals, making decisions, and preparing priority scales. . Political structure, as a result of these subsystems, can be divided into political infrastructure and political superstructure. Political infrastructure involves the basic elements that support the functioning of the political system, while political superstructure includes more complex elements and is related to providing authority and control. In this context, mechanisms are important to maintain the balance and functioning of a political system. Each political structure needs to interact with other political structures, based on the special functions that each structure has. In a country's political system, there are 2 (two) main components that run the wheels of government, namely political superstructure and political infrastructure. The political superstructure is the institutions mentioned in a country's constitution and which carry out executive, legislative and judicial functions and are tasked with making policies related to the public interest. Meanwhile, political infrastructure is a group of political forces in society that actively participates in influencing government policy as a form of democracy. If classified, there are 4 (four) forces, namely: Political Parties, Interest Groups, Pressure Groups. , Political communication media.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the political practice of reciprocating in the 2024 Regional Elections in Sidikalang District and the factors that affect it. By using a qualitative approach and in-depth interview techniques with various informants such as success teams, community leaders, voters, and party administrators, it was found that the practice of reciprocating favors is the main strategy in building political support. The politics of reciprocity is carried out through the provision of social assistance, promises of projects, and the strengthening of ethnic or religious ties. The main factors driving this practice are patron-client relations, weak political education, party pragmatism, and the dominance of clienteleistic strategies in campaigns. These findings show that local democracy is still colored by transactional relations that hinder the formation of a government that is oriented towards the public interest. Therefore, efforts to improve political literacy, party reform, and law enforcement against money politics are needed to encourage a cleaner and more integrity election process.

Abstract

This study aims to find out the extent of the influence of family choice traditions on students' political decisions in the 2024 Presidential and Vice Presidential Elections. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach by collecting data through interviews and literature studies. The results show that the family is still the main political socialization agent that influences students' political preferences, mainly due to emotional bonds, economic dependence, and inherited values from an early age. However, technological advances, higher education, and political discussions in the campus environment also provide space for students to think critically and make political decisions independently. Thus, although the tradition of family choice is still strong, its influence on students' political decisions tends to begin to weaken with the development of the times and wider access to information.

Abstract

This study analyzes how the Tarekat Naqsyabandiyah Al-Khalidiyah Da’imiyah (TNKD) constructs and institutionalizes the integration of spiritual discipline and scientific rationality within contemporary Sufi practice. In the context of modernity, religious traditions are often perceived as incompatible with rational, scientific modes of knowledge, thereby marginalizing Sufi institutions. However, emerging forms of organized Sufism indicate a more complex negotiation between spirituality, rationality, and institutional life. This research employs a qualitative design using a spiritual ethnography approach, involving participant observation and in-depth interviews with key TNKD authorities. Data were analyzed through condensation, display, and verification within an interpretive epistemological framework. The findings reveal, first, that TNKD has transformed into an institutionalized and expansive Sufi order in which formal organizational structures enable sustainability and transregional growth without eroding spiritual authenticity. Second, TNKD’s spiritual legitimacy is grounded in a muktabarah silsilah and a stratified authority structure that ensures doctrinal continuity and communal trust. Third, TNKD integrates the Sufi discipline with scientific rationality through intellectual forums, academic writing, and evaluative mechanisms, thereby positioning tasawuf as a reflective and accountable knowledge tradition. This study contributes theoretically by conceptualizing Sufism as an epistemic institution and recommends further comparative research on rationality within contemporary Sufi orders.

Abstract

The historical development of Islamic political thought reflects the dynamic interaction between enduring religious principles and changing socio-political contexts. This article examines how the concepts of shūrā, social justice, and leadership have evolved in the works of six influential Muslim thinkers: Al-Farabi, Al-Mawardi, and Ibn Khaldun from the classical period, alongside Abul A'la Maududi, Ali Shariati, and Muhammad Iqbal from the modern era. Employing a qualitative literature-based approach, this study conducts a comparative analysis of primary and secondary sources to identify both continuity and change across different historical contexts. Unlike previous studies that primarily examine individual thinkers or specific periods, this article comparatively explores the historical development of these three political principles across classical and modern Islamic thought. The findings indicate that the core principles of Islamic political thought remain interconnected across contexts. Rather than representing a uniform transformation, the concepts of shūrā, social justice, and leadership demonstrate diverse reinterpretations in response to changing intellectual, political, and social circumstances. These findings underscore the historical adaptability of Islamic political thought while highlighting the significance of comparative historical analysis in understanding its continuing relevance to contemporary political discourse.

Abstract

The modern era is characterized by rapid urbanization, secularization, and materialism in large cities such as Medan, which have created significant spiritual challenges for Buddhist communities. The pressures of multicultural urban life often erode the depth of religious practice and the connection with the transcendent dimension. This study examines the role of mindfulness as a relevant approach to revitalizing the spirituality and religious practices of Buddhists in Medan by integrating full awareness rooted in Buddhist traditions, particularly the Satipatthana Sutta, Vipassana, and Samatha. This research employs a qualitative method based on library research. Data were collected from primary sources such as the Tipitaka, Suttas, and classical Buddhist literature, as well as secondary sources including scientific journals, vihara activity reports (such as those from Vihara Borobudur and Maha Vihara Maitreya), and empirical studies on mindfulness in Indonesia. The analysis was conducted using thematic content analysis, hermeneutic interpretation, and comparative approaches. The discussion reveals that mindfulness is practiced through mindful breathing, mindful eating, and the Day of Mindfulness programs held at various viharas in Medan. These practices strengthen meditation discipline, reduce dukkha (suffering), enhance equanimity, and build mental resilience amid urban dynamics. However, their implementation faces challenges, including resistance from traditionalist groups who are concerned about the simplification of teachings and the separation of sati from the core Buddhist framework of sila (ethics), samadhi (concentration), and panna (wisdom), as well as accessibility issues for the community. The study concludes that mindfulness has strong potential to serve as an effective bridge between classical Mahayana traditions and the needs of modern urban society in Medan, provided it is implemented in an integrative manner that does not undermine the essence of Buddhist teachings.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Modernity has triggered a crisis of meaning, weakened moral orientation, and diminished spiritual depth, creating an urgent need for an Islamic spirituality paradigm that integrates inner experience with social responsibility. Although Fazlur Rahman’s thought has been widely discussed, the relationship between his moral hermeneutics, the concept of taqwa, and neo-Sufism as a paradigm for reconstructing Islamic spirituality remains insufficiently explored. This study aims to analyze how Fazlur Rahman’s neo-Sufism reconstructs Islamic spirituality through the integration of Qur’anic moral consciousness, inner spirituality, and social responsibility in responding to the challenges of modernity. The study employed a library research approach using content analysis of 16 relevant scholarly works. The findings reveal that Rahman’s neo-Sufism is constructed upon five interconnected themes: the critique of passive Sufism, double movement hermeneutics, taqwa as moral consciousness, prophetic ethics, and its relevance to modernity. These themes collectively establish a spiritual paradigm grounded in Qur’anic morality that integrates theological, ethical, and social dimensions. This study contributes a conceptual synthesis by positioning Fazlur Rahman’s neo-Sufism as an integrative, contextual, and transformative paradigm of Islamic spirituality for addressing contemporary societal challenges. ABSTRAK Modernitas telah memicu krisis makna, melemahnya orientasi moral, dan berkurangnya kedalaman spiritual sehingga diperlukan paradigma spiritualitas Islam yang mampu mengintegrasikan pengalaman batin dengan tanggung jawab sosial. Meskipun pemikiran Fazlur Rahman telah banyak dikaji, hubungan antara hermeneutika moral, konsep taqwa, dan neo-sufisme sebagai paradigma rekonstruksi spiritualitas Islam masih belum dikaji secara integratif. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis bagaimana neo-sufisme Fazlur Rahman merekonstruksi spiritualitas Islam melalui integrasi kesadaran moral Qur'ani, pengalaman batin, dan tanggung jawab sosial dalam menghadapi dinamika modernitas. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan library research dengan analisis isi terhadap 16 literatur ilmiah yang relevan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konstruksi neo-sufisme Fazlur Rahman dibangun melalui lima tema utama, yaitu kritik terhadap sufisme pasif, hermeneutika double movement, taqwa sebagai kesadaran moral, etika profetik, dan relevansinya terhadap modernitas. Kelima tema tersebut membentuk paradigma spiritualitas yang menempatkan moralitas Qur'ani sebagai dasar integrasi antara dimensi teologis, etis, dan sosial. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi konseptual dengan menawarkan sintesis neo-sufisme Fazlur Rahman sebagai paradigma spiritualitas Islam yang integratif, kontekstual, dan transformatif untuk merespons tantangan masyarakat modern.

Abstract

Contemporary political dynamics in Indonesia reveal a stark paradox between electoral democratic procedures and the reality of sovereignty co-opted by oligarchic forces through mechanisms of state capture. This study aims to analyze public perceptions of oligarchic political practices in Indonesia through the lens of Islamic political thought, specifically the principle of distributive justice. A descriptive-qualitative method was employed, utilizing a contemporary political approach integrated circularly with cross-platform digital discourse analysis. Primary data were drawn from Jeffrey A. Winters’ theoretical framework on oligarchy and authoritative Islamic texts, while secondary data were obtained by observing public discourse on YouTube and X, platforms that reflect collective societal grievances. The findings indicate that the public perceives oligarchy as a form of "structural injustice" manifesting in institutional corruption, cabinet factionalism, and the hijacking of village economic sovereignty. From a theological perspective, these practices are found to fundamentally contradict the spirit of Surah Al-Hasyr, verse 7, which prohibits the concentration of wealth solely among a handful of elites (kai la yakuna dulatan baina al-aghniya’ minkum). The study concludes that strengthening political morality grounded in the concept of amanah (trust/stewardship) and restoring the state's distributive function are critical imperatives for reclaiming the public interest (maslahah al-ammah) from the grip of the materialistic interests of a few capital holders.

Abstract

This qualitative single-case study examines the local governance of Indonesia’s Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) Program in Mudik Village through distributive, procedural, and social justice, interpreted using Al-Māwardī’s principles of al-‘adl, amanah, and maslahah. Data were obtained from five purposively selected informants, field observation, and local program documents during 15 Februari–30 Maret 2025. Data were analyzed through data reduction, thematic display, and interpretive comparison across sources and techniques. The available local record listed 171 recipients, comprising 152 toddlers and 19 breastfeeding mothers; however, it did not separately report pregnant women, and the village population figure in the draft was inconsistent. Informants described gaps in beneficiary updating, access to information, distribution timing, and the accessibility of centralized collection at the village hall. Recipient accounts indicated that the meals supported access to prepared food and could reduce food expenditure on distribution days, but the study did not measure nutritional outcomes, household economic impact, or program effectiveness. The study concludes that the local implementation shows administrative effort and perceived practical value, while fair implementation requires verifiable beneficiary data, accessible communication, correction and complaint mechanisms, and distribution arrangements responsive to recipient conditions. The findings are contextual because they are based on one village and five informants.
