Abstract

This study examines the political career of Maria Ullfah from 1934 to 1947, as well as the influence of her family and education on the formation of her political consciousness. Born into an educated priyayi family, Maria Ullfah had access to extensive formal education from an early age, eventually pursuing legal studies at Leiden University in the Netherlands. Growing up in a family environment closely connected to intellectual traditions and the colonial bureaucracy, combined with her experiences witnessing injustices against women, nurtured her social sensitivity and early commitment to gender equality. Her Western education and interactions with figures of the national movement, such as Sutan Sjahrir, further strengthened her awareness as part of a colonized nation in need of change. Upon returning to Indonesia, she actively participated in women’s organizations, educational institutions, and the national movement, playing a key role in the Indonesian Women’s Congress, KOWANI, and literacy eradication efforts. During the revolutionary period, her intellectual capacity and dedication led to her being appointed a member of the BPUPKI and later becoming the first female Minister of Social Affairs. Her contributions not only opened public spaces for women but also played a significant role in the political processes leading to the establishment of the Indonesian state. This study demonstrates that family background, education, and personal experiences were significant factors in shaping Maria Ullfah as a central figure in the women’s movement and the struggle for independence.

Abstract

Purpose - This article aims to examine the cosmology of love in the thought of Sachiko Murata and to explore its application to Qur'anic cosmic verses concerning the sky, the earth, and rain. While studies on Qur'anic cosmology and Murata's intellectual contributions have expanded considerably, limited attention has been given to integrating her Taoist-Sufistic framework into the interpretation of cosmic verses. The study argues that love (maḥabbah) constitutes an ontological foundation that underlies the structure and harmony of the cosmos. Design/methods/approach - This research employs a qualitative library-based methodology. Data were collected from primary and secondary sources related to Qur'anic cosmology, Sachiko Murata's writings, Taoist philosophy, and Islamic mysticism, particularly Ibn Arabi's metaphysics. The analysis utilizes thematic exegesis (tafsīr mawḍūʿī) combined with philosophical hermeneutics to uncover symbolic and relational meanings embedded in selected cosmic verses. Findings - The study reveals that the Qur'anic representation of the cosmos reflects a dynamic relational structure grounded in love. The sky symbolizes an active-transcendent principle, the earth embodies a receptive-immanent principle, and rain functions as a mediating element that animates their interaction. These cosmic relations illustrate maḥabbah as a unifying ontological force that sustains creation and cosmic order. Research implications/limitations - The study is limited to textual and philosophical analysis and does not incorporate empirical or ecological field data. Consequently, its conclusions are primarily interpretive and theoretical, providing a foundation for further interdisciplinary research on Qur'anic cosmology and environmental ethics. Originality/value - This article offers a novel integration of Murata's Taoist-Sufistic cosmology with Qur'anic studies and proposes a "cosmology of love" as a model of relational ontology. It contributes to Islamic ecological spirituality by reorienting the human-nature relationship from anthropocentrism toward relational cosmocentrism.
