Abstract

To understand the meaning behind the Wahdatul Ulum notion as a response to and resolution to the scientific dichotomy is the goal of this study. The reference tracing approach was employed in this investigation. This approach was used to elaborate on the opinions of experts and solid research on wahdatul ulum in more detail. The findings of this investigation suggest; (1) The scientific dichotomy actually creates a wide chasm between general science and religious knowledge, and (2) the current scientific dichotomy is connected to both vertical and horizontal dichotomies as well as factual, ethical, and interpersonal dichotomies. (3) The ambiguity of Islamic education orientation, the discrepancy between the Islamic education system and Islamic teachings, and the disintegration of the Islamic education system are the dangers of scientific dichotomy. (4) Wahdatul Ulum must be capable of integrating with UIN North Sumatra's central philosophical tenet.

Abstract

This article critically interprets the intersection between prophetic Islamic values and the symbolic hegemony of dynastic power in Deli Serdang, North Sumatra. Despite procedural legality, the hereditary rule of the Tambunan family over two decades raises ethical and normative concerns. Through a qualitative case study involving document analysis, interviews, and field observation, this study finds that political communication in the region is heavily shaped by religious and cultural symbolism, which legitimizes power continuity while suppressing democratic deliberation and political regeneration. The research highlights that values such as rahmah (compassion), syura (consultation), and ?adl (justice) are often invoked rhetorically but rarely operationalized in governance practices. The study argues that Islamic political communication must transcend symbolic religiosity to promote openness, justice, and participatory leadership. Ultimately, this article offers a reinterpretation of Islamic political ethics as a critical framework to challenge symbolic domination and democratize local politics. It calls for a rethinking of democracy through Qur’anic values, exposing how structural stagnation is often disguised as political stability.
