Abstract

This article discusses Khaled M. Abou El Fadl’s (El Fadl) views on Islamic legal authority and his critique of the fatwa prohibiting women from travelling alone without a maḥram (unmarriageable kin) issued by the Council for Scientific Research and Legal Opinions (CRLO), Saudi Arabia. This research employs a literature review method by analysing several fatwas issued by the CRLO and several of El Fadl’s works as primary sources. The research findings indicate that El Fadl strives to formulate an authoritative and progressive Islamic law. El Fadl criticises the CRLO’s authoritarian fatwa regarding the prohibition of women travelling alone without a maḥram using a hermeneutic framework. El Fadl emphasises that the reader must understand the message of the religious text by connecting the text at the time of its revelation with the current text, considering the text’s competence, meaning determination, and representation. According to El Fadl, the hadith text used as a basis by the CRLO is no longer relevant in the current context because of the sense of security can be overcome on which the fatwa is based. The author argues that El Fadl’s views belong to progressive Muslim thinking. This article is expected to contribute to the discourse on openness and inclusivity in Islam.

Abstract

Traditions in religious life sometimes cause problems in society. The role of religious experts is very important in solving this problem. This study aims to analyze the tradition of larung Sesaji and the views of religious figures in Ponorogo regarding this procession. This study is qualitative research in which the data were collected from field research. For analysis, descriptive methods with a phenomenological approach are applied. The research results show that the tradition of larung sesaji in Ngebel Lake, with its various kinds of knick-knacks, is passed down from generation to generation as an accumulation of pre-Islamic customs. This tradition was originally a prayer for safety from the disaster caused by the supernatural ruler of Ngebel Lake. In response to this, the puritan Ulama in Ponorogo stated that larung sesaji is close to shirk (idolatry) and is considered ‘urf fāsid, so there is no need to practice it. While moderate ulama is more flexible, allowing the tradition to continue as usual while giving guidance so that any possibility of violations of the Shari’a can be anticipated; hence, it is considered ‘urf ṣaḥīḥ. However, as a consequence of the Constitutional Court Decision No. 97/PUU-XIV/2016 regarding believers with no belief to not include their religion on KTP (ID Card), people around Ngebel Lake have converted their faith (apostates). Eventually, this tradition and practice are beyond the authority of the MUI and ulama.

Abstract

Interreligious relations require wisdom to foster social harmony. Interfaith dialogue is an essential effort in achieving this goal. This study extends previous discourses by elaborating on the concept of fiqh al-harmony (jurisprudence of harmony) as developed by Shaykh Wasil, analyzed through Jasser Auda’s framework of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. Employing a qualitative, library-based method with both conceptual and historical approaches, this research explores the contributions of Shaykh Wasil, a 12th-century Persian scholar who came to Kediri at the invitation of King Jayabaya. Through his work Musarar, he promoted Islam using a harmony-based approach. When analyzed through Auda’s six features of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, Shaykh Wasil’s jurisprudence of harmony reveals significant relevance: cognitive nature classifies it within political jurisprudence (fiqh al-siyāsah); wholeness emphasizes conflict resolution through a comprehensive framework; openness integrates jurisprudence with Sufism, positive law, and the sociology of law; interrelated hierarchy identifies his harmonious da‘wah strategy as a manifestation of both maqāṣid al-ummah and maqāṣid al-insāniyyah; multi-dimensionality fosters common ground in interreligious conflict; and purposefulness demonstrates that his ultimate aim was to promote Islam as a mercy for all creation. This model of fiqh emphasizes tolerance, honesty, and rationality as essential dimensions of religious life.Keywords: Jurisprudence of harmony; Jasser Auda; Maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah; Shaykh Wasil; Religious tolerance

Abstract

Violence in the name of religion seems to be being carried out by all groups of Indonesian society. Even in some cases, there are strong nuances to amplify the desecration. Religion that is not inclusive with one-sided truth claims still shows its existence which is quite strong among religious people, especially Muslims. They consider their religious understanding to be an undeniable truth, and is considered a definite reflection of the source of religious teachings. This brings religious people to a life where conflicts often occur between fellow human beings, both fellow believers of same religion but different sects, as well as fellow believers of different religions. In addition, understanding this model will make religious people fall into an extreme religious understanding. Religion is understood as dead dogmas and only deals with the problems of the hereafter and divinity so that it does not have the ability to provide pleasant solutions in solving human problems that are manifested in today's life. This article tries to analyze the problems above by using a philosophy of law approach so that the reader is able to see the problem with an objective view without losing common sense. Keywords: Religious Violence, Indonesia, The Philosophy of Law. Abstrak Kekerasan atas nama agama hingga saat ini tampaknya masih terus dilakukan segenap kelompok dari masyarakat Indonesia. Bahkan pada sebagian kasus, ada nuansa kuat untuk menguatkan penodaan tersebut. Keberagamaan yang tidak inklusif dengan klaim kebenaran sepihak masih menampakkan keberadaannya yang cukup kuat di kalangan umat beragama, khususnya umat Islam. Mereka menganggap pemahaman keagamaan yang dianut mereka merupakan kebenaran yang tidak terbantah, serta dianggap pencerminan yang pasti dari sumber ajaran agama. Hal ini membawa umat beragama kepada kehidupan yang sering terjadi konflik antar sesama manusia, baik sesama pemeluk agama yang berbeda aliran, maupun sesama umat yang berbeda agama. Di samping itu, pemahaman model itu akan membuat umat beragama masuk dalam pemahaman keagamaan yang ekstrim. Agama dipahami sebagai dogma-dogma mati dan hanya mengurus masalah akhirat serta ketuhanan sehingga tidak memiliki kemampuan untuk memberikan solusi yang menyenangkan dalam penyelesaian problem kemanusiaan yang terwujud di kehidupan masa kini. Artikel ini mencoba menganalisis permasalahan di atas dengan menggunakan pendekatan filsafat hukum sehingga pembaca mampu melihat permasalahan tersebut dengan pandangan objektif tanpa kehilangan akal sehat. Kata Kunci: Kekerasan Agama, Indonesia, Filsafat Hukum.

Abstract

This paper analyzes al-Ghazālī’s thoughts, especially in the discussion of the categorization of scholars and the groupings of knowledge which he offers in the book Ihyā ‘Ulūm al-Dīn. As a scientist of Islamic Studies, alGhazālī was able to present this discussion in an interesting and profound way. He stated in his creation that scholars are divided into two. First is the counterfeit ulama called al-sū’. The second is the ulama who is true (hereafter). Likewise with science, al-Ghazālī divides knowledge globally into two things, namely knowledge that is fardu ‘ain and fardu kifayah. As an ulama who is an expert in all scientific fields who eventually pursues the field of Sufism, it can be seen how much he presents the book Ihyā ‘Ulūm al-Dīn with a distinctively Sufistic nuance. It does not seem patronizing and always interesting to read, especially for lovers of the world of Sufism. The Ihyā ‘Ulūm al-Dīn is divided into four parts. First, a quarter about Worship. Second, a quarter about habits. Third, a quarter about destruction. Fourth, a quarter about secrets/feelings. Even so, it does not rule out the possibility in this work, for insiders and outsiders to carry out further elaboration and various other intellectual activities, in order to present a more interesting work in the present and future.

Abstract: This article analyzes the concept of good governance from the perspective of contemporary thought of Islamic law. Good governance is a new concept in islamic legal discourse, but an important one for preventing abuse of power. Good governance is understood to be applied in government and bureaucracy. Clean government should be effective, efficient, transparent, honest and accountable. This can be executed by using all available resources (human, social, culture, politics and economy) for the welfare of the community. Because of this noble goal, good governance is a must, from the perspective of Islamic law. The effort to realize welfare for the community by the state is in line with Islamic law. On the other hand, there is arguably no corresponding textual references from al-Qur’an or Hadith on the issue of good governance. Therefore the concept of mashlahah mursalah is employed since it highly built upon the accommodation of human welfare as it is the main mission of Islam. Abstrak: Tulisan ini menguraikan upaya good governance dengan sudut pandang hukum Islam kontemporer. Good governance merupakan gerakan ijtihâdiyyah dalam mewujudkan pemerintahan yang baik untuk menegasikan penyalahgunaan kekuasaan yang terjadi di dunia, khususnya di Indonesia. Good governance diartikan sebagai tata kelola pemerintahan yang bersih dan baik. Pemerintahan yang bersih adalah pemerintahan yang efektif, efisien, transparan, jujur, dan bertanggung jawab, sedangkan pemerintahan yang baik adalah pemerintahan negara yang berkaitan dengan sumber sosial, budaya, politik, serta ekonomi diatur sesuai dengan kekuasaan yang dilaksanakan pada masyarakat. Berdasarkan hukum Islam kontemporer, penerapan good governance di Indonesia harus dilakukan. Metode pencapaian kesejahteraan dalam bernegara dengan berbagai pemasalahan kontemporer yang timbul menyertainya harus disikapi secara hukum. Di sisi lain, secara tekstual, nas-nas syariat tidak menyikapi semua permasalahan yang timbul tersebut secara spesifik, maka mashlahah mursalah dapat dipertimbangkan sebagai salah satu metode ijtihad kontemporer untuk mengakomodasi kemaslahatan manusia dalam penerapan good governance, karena Islam datang sebagai rahmat bagi alam semesta.

Abstract

This article attempts to explain the political methodology of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia and its implications for religious-based nationalism. As is known, the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia was built with great struggle. Indonesia was born based on a sincere and sincere intention to build an independent unitary state. At the same time to achieve a just, prosperous and prosperous society. A number of events have been passed by this nation. The task of the Indonesian people at this time is to take care of the common house (Indonesia) as a realization of devotion and love for the homeland. Taking care of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia today is by understanding the political methodology of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, if observed in the contemporary era in Indonesian localities, many political issues with religious nuances are developed. National political issues are strongly influenced by the controversy surrounding SARA (ethnicity, religion, race, and intergroup) wrapped in religious normative arguments. Religion, which should be the teaching and norms of living personality that enlightens every individual, is tainted by the issue of poor quality political interests. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the political methodology of the Republic of Indonesia which includes several aspects such as the harmonization of religion and state. Furthermore, aspects of the concept of democracy in Indonesia are in line with Islamic teachings and the last aspect of national politics is egalitarian and non-violent based which is also in line with religious teachings. All of these aspects will in turn give birth to the reasoning of religious-based nationalism as an ideal and logical implication in seeing the existence of Indonesia which is multicultural and diverse.

Abstract

This paper attempts to explain national fiqh as a formulation for strengthening religious moderation in Indonesia. Indonesia is a country with the largest Muslim population in the world, but has ethnic, cultural, linguistic and religious diversity. Conflicts with racial and religious nuances are sought to be prevented as early as possible by presenting the formulation of national fiqh and its implementation in a sustainable manner. National fiqh is knowledge of religious laws and nationalism produced by ijtihad which is extracted from primary sources of Islamic law. This kind of fiqh prioritizes the human aspect, respects and appreciates diversity, because it exists in a pluralistic reality. This is of course in line with the teachings of Islam. The author also relates this study to a phenomenological approach. From this phenomenological approach, it can be understood that human actions that seek to apply National Jurisprudence and he can respect diversity on the grounds that it is ruled by religion and the State, thus bringing real harmony and happiness are meaningful actions. This is in accordance with the perspective of moderate Islam that is developing in Indonesia. Especially in the digital era, it is necessary to apply national fiqh in order to realize religious moderation in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

Pemilu serentak merupakan gabungan antara pemilu legislatif dan pemilu Presiden yang dilaksanakan secara serentak, hal ini merupakan tindak lanjut dari Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 14/PUU-XI/2013. Dalam kenyataannya, pemilih pada Pemilu 2024 berasal dari Generasi Z dan Milenial, sekitar 55%. Untuk itu, generasi muda penting tidak hanya mengenali, menganalisis, memeriksa visi dan misi serta program yang ditawarkan peserta pemilu, termasuk partai politik, caleg, calon presiden dan wakil presiden, namun juga ikut membantu Komisi Pemilihan Umum dalam proses pelaksanaan Pemilu 2024. Pemilih muda dalam pemilu diharapkan menjadi pemilih yang cerdas, hal ini memiliki korelasi dengan fikih good governance. Fikih good governance merupakan bagian dari fiqh siyāsah, karena semua kebijakan yang diambil oleh pemerintah bersumber dari hasil pemikiran manusia untuk merealisasikan kesejahteraan rakyat, penegakan hukum dan agar dijauhkan dari kerusakan. Cara pandang pemilih muda dalam memilih pemimpin yang jujur, anti korupsi dan memperjuangkan negara utama atau bahagia seperti disampaikan oleh Abū Naṣr al-Farābi. Negara utama merupakan negara yang pelembagaannya membutuhkan kerjasama dari semua warganya dan kepemimpinan yang kuat dari seorang penguasa berbudi luhur yang pengetahuannya telah membimbingnya dan penduduknya tolong menolong untuk memperoleh kebahagiaan yang diibaratkan seperti badan yang sehat. Negara utama tersusun dari bagian-bagian yang berbeda yang saling memenuhi. Adapun kontestasi dan dinamika pemilu 2024 dapat dipahami adanya persaingan dan perebutan suara, baik dari calon Presiden maupun legislatif. Kontestasi ini harus dilakukan dengan sportif. Dalam hal dinamika, ada pembaruan pemilu yang dulu secara terpisah sekarang secara langsung dan serentak. Adanya kebaruan ini merupakan keniscayaan dalam negara demokratis. Simultaneous elections is a combination of legislative and presidential election held simultaneously, This is a follow-up to the Constitutional Court Decision Number 14/PUU-XI/2013. In reality, voters in the 2024 Election come from Generation Z and Millennials, around 55%. For this reason, it is important for the younger generation not only to recognize, analyze, examine the vision and mission and programs offered by election participants, including political parties, legislative candidates, presidential and vice presidential candidates, but also to help the General Election Commission in the process of implementing the 2024 elections. Young voters in elections are expected to be intelligent voters, this has a correlation with good governance fiqh. Good governance fiqh is part of siyāsah fiqh, because all policies taken by the government originate from the results of human thought to realize people's welfare, enforce the law and prevent damage. The perspective of young voters in choosing leaders who are honest, anti-corruption and strive for a premier or happy country as conveyed by Abū Naṣr al-Farābi. The main country is a country whose institution requires the cooperation of all its citizens and the strong leadership of a virtuous ruler whose knowledge has guided him and his people to help them achieve happiness which is likened to a healthy body. The main state is composed of different parts that fulfill each other. As for the contestation and dynamics of the 2024 election, it can be understood that there will be competition and competition for votes, both from presidential and legislative candidates. This contest must be carried out with sportsmanship. In terms of dynamics, there is a renewal of elections which used to be separate now directly and simultaneously. This newness is a necessity in a democratic country.
