Abstract

This study investigates the important role of Ancient Egyptian civilization in the development of science during the Abbasid era. Through a literature review, this study outlines the history of Ancient Egypt and its contribution to falak, explains the Abbasid era as a historical context, and analyzes the development of falak during the Abbasid period. Research methodology includes methods of resource analysis, collection of data from various sources, and application of relevant analytical techniques. The results showed that Ancient Egyptian civilization had a major role in the development of Abbasid Era science. This is seen in the transfer of knowledge, astronomical advances, translations of classical works, improvements to the Hijri calendar, and the impact on navigation. Innovation, recognition of cultural and knowledge diversity, and advances in science are driven by integration. The results suggest that the integration of culture and knowledge can enable the development of scientific knowledge. In the current context of global openness of science, this has relevance. This study enhances science and increases our understanding of how different civilizations affect science. This study concludes that Ancient Egyptian civilization had an important role in the progress of science in the Abbasid era, thus encouraging progress, foundation formation, and influence of science to this day.

Abstract

Muhammad Arkoun, as one of the contemporary Islamic thinkers, is the subject of examination in this writing, where the author seeks to explore Arkoun's ideas on the humanization of religious knowledge and its relevance to the development of astronomy in the present era. To achieve this objective, the author employs the library research method, which is literature-based. Arkoun's notions of deconstruction and rethinking Islam constitute key concepts presented in his critique of Islamic societies that tend to sanctify the views of past scholars without considering their relevance to the current context. According to Arkoun, this tendency often results in Islamic thought becoming stagnant, hindering the ability to address contemporary issues due to a fixation on the perspectives of earlier scholars. This problem extends to the realm of knowledge development, as seen in cases such as the rejection of reorienting the qibla direction in certain mosques. The argument is based on the belief that the qibla direction in these mosques is a legacy from past scholars of the region and, therefore, should not be altered. However, Arkoun contends that, in the field of astronomy, calculations reveal that the qibla direction in these mosques deviates, necessitating a correction in their positioning.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of the Diat theory in Islamic criminal law with the Restorative Justice (RJ) approach in the Indonesian criminal justice system. Diat is a form of compensation granted to victims or their families in certain criminal cases, aiming to promote justice and social reconciliation. Meanwhile, RJ is emerging in Indonesia as an alternative dispute resolution focusing on healing victims and restoring social harmony. This research aims to identify the conceptual intersection between both systems and develop an integrative model applicable to the national legal framework. Using a normative and literature-based approach, the findings indicate that Diat principles can be aligned with RJ mechanisms, especially in non-litigation and participatory resolutions. This integration is expected to strengthen a more humane, equitable, and restorative criminal justice system in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study explores the transformation of Islamic astronomy (‘ilm al-falak) in late Ottoman Egypt, emphasizing its role in religious authority, state formation, and scientific modernization. The research is urgent due to the epistemic shifts occurring during imperial transition, especially in Cairo’s religious and scientific institutions. Using historical-textual methods, the study analyzes archival records, mosque timekeeping documents, Arabic press debates, and translated astronomical tables. Postcolonial theory and science and technology studies serve as analytical tools to examine knowledge adaptation. The findings show that European astronomical models, such as French planetary tables, were localized within Islamic frameworks. Mechanical clocks were introduced into mosques, supervised by scholars, leading to standardized prayer times and the institutionalization of crescent moon observations. Religious scholars actively engaged with technological changes, integrating them within ethical and jurisprudential contexts. Public discourse in the Arab press reflected ongoing negotiations between modern science and religious tradition. Late Ottoman Egypt witnessed the hybridization of astronomical knowledge, shaped by political, religious, and technological forces. This process redefined the role of scholars in scientific discourse and laid the foundation for contemporary Islamic astronomy in the Middle East. This research contributes to the history of Islamic science by filling a critical gap in how scholars mediated the translation and institutionalization of European time technologies within Islamic religious frameworks, thereby reshaping the epistemic foundations of modern Islamic astronomy.

Abstract

The institutionalization of Islamic marriage registration in Indonesia reflects the expanding role of the state in governing family life through legal and administrative mechanisms. Although state law requires marriages to be both religiously valid and officially registered, its implementation continues to reveal tensions among religious norms, bureaucratic procedures, and institutional practices, particularly in cases of unregistered marriages. This article examines how Islamic marriage registration is governed and how legal recognition is produced through the interaction of regulatory frameworks, administrative procedures, and judicial mechanisms. Employing a qualitative socio-legal approach, the study draws on document analysis of statutes, implementing regulations, administrative circulars, administrative instruments, and relevant decisions of the Islamic courts. The findings demonstrate that marriage registration operates as a layered governance regime in which legal recognition depends not only on religious validity but also on documentary compliance, inter-institutional coordination, administrative capacity, and access to judicial remedies. The study further shows that regulatory complexity generates multiple forms of administrative burden, including learning, compliance, and psychological costs, all of which shape citizens’ ability to obtain legally recognized marital status. Within this framework, the Islamic courts—particularly through the mechanism of isbāt nikāḥ (marriage validation)—serve as an institutional bridge between religious legitimacy and administrative recognition. The article argues that Islamic marriage registration functions as a technology of state legibility, rendering religiously based family relationships administratively visible, legally recognizable, and governable by the state. It offers a socio-legal framework for understanding how legal recognition is produced through the interaction of religious norms, administrative procedures, and institutional practices in the governance of Islamic family law in Indonesia. [Institusionalisasi pencatatan perkawinan Islam di Indonesia mencerminkan semakin luasnya peran negara dalam mengatur kehidupan keluarga melalui mekanisme hukum dan administrasi. Meskipun hukum negara mengharuskan perkawinan sah menurut agama dan dicatat oleh negara, implementasinya masih memperlihatkan berbagai ketegangan antara norma keagamaan, prosedur birokrasi, dan praktik kelembagaan, terutama dalam kasus perkawinan yang tidak tercatat. Artikel ini menganalisis bagaimana pencatatan perkawinan Islam dikelola serta bagaimana pengakuan hukum dibentuk melalui interaksi antara kerangka regulasi, prosedur administrasi, dan mekanisme peradilan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan sosio-legal kualitatif dengan analisis dokumen terhadap peraturan perundang-undangan, regulasi pelaksana, surat edaran, instrumen administrasi, dan putusan pengadilan agama yang relevan. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pencatatan perkawinan beroperasi sebagai rezim tata kelola berlapis, di mana pengakuan hukum tidak hanya ditentukan oleh keabsahan agama, tetapi juga oleh kepatuhan dokumenter, koordinasi antar lembaga, kapasitas administratif, dan akses terhadap mekanisme yudisial. Selain itu, kompleksitas regulasi menghasilkan beban administratif yang beragam, meliputi biaya pembelajaran, biaya kepatuhan, dan beban psikologis yang memengaruhi kemampuan warga negara untuk memperoleh status perkawinan yang diakui secara hukum. Dalam konteks tersebut, Pengadilan Agama, terutama melalui mekanisme isbat nikah, berperan sebagai instrumen kelembagaan yang menjembatani kesenjangan antara legitimasi agama dan pengakuan administratif. Artikel ini berargumen bahwa pencatatan perkawinan Islam berfungsi sebagai teknologi keterbacaan negara yang menjadikan relasi keluarga berbasis agama dapat terlihat secara administratif, diakui secara hukum, dan dikelola oleh negara. Artikel ini menawarkan kerangka sosio-legal untuk menjelaskan bagaimana pengakuan hukum atas perkawinan diproduksi melalui interaksi antara norma agama, prosedur administratif, dan praktik kelembagaan dalam tata kelola hukum keluarga Islam di Indonesia.]
