Abstract

Islam Wasathiyah, a concept that emphasizes moderation and balance in the understanding and practice of Islam, has become an increasingly important religious discourse in the context of contemporary global geopolitics. This paper aims to explore the central role of al-Azhar University, Egypt's leading Islamic educational institution, in developing and promoting Islam Wasathiyah amidst complex socio-political dynamics. Using historical and analytical approaches, this paper examines the internal and external factors that drive the emergence of the concept of Islam Wasathiyah, and analyzes al-Azhar's involvement in political contestations in Egypt and the Islamic world in general. Furthermore, this paper outlines the strategies implemented by al-Azhar, especially under the leadership of Grand Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, in campaigning for Islam Wasathiyah through various initiatives, such as international conferences, scientific publications, institutional cooperation, and religious diplomacy. By analyzing al-Azhar's role in facing the challenges of religious extremism and radicalism, this paper contributes to the discussion on the future of moderate Islam and the significance of religious institutions in shaping inclusive and peaceful Islamic discourse and practice. The findings of this study emphasize the importance of al-Azhar's role as a key actor in the global geopolitical landscape, as well as its potential in promoting a balanced and contextual understanding of Islam in facing contemporary challenges.

Abstract

The rise of terrorism by extremist groups with religious backgrounds and the development of Islamophobia in the West after 9/11 are essential issues that need to be addressed. After the WTC incident in 2001, the US declared a "war on terror," which has implications for the bad sentiment of Western society towards Islam, which has led to many acts of discrimination and violence against Muslims in the West. There are still few studies that analyze the relationship between religious fundamentalism-extremism and the development of Islamophobia in the West. This study uses a qualitative approach with secondary data analysis from various sources related to the topic discussed.   It was found that propaganda and hateful rhetoric, as well as acts of violence by extremist Muslim groups, helped trigger and strengthen Islamophobia in the West. From the perspective of the spiral of violence theory, the 9/11 terrorist act also gave birth to other violence in the form of military attacks and discrimination against Muslims. Acts of terrorism by Muslim fundamentalists and Islamophobia in the West influence each other in an ongoing cycle of violence. Efforts to prevent terrorism and deradicalization, as well as religious tolerance education, are needed to break this cycle of violence. We recommend further research with a quantitative approach to empirically analyze the impact of acts of terrorism on incidents of Islamophobia.

Abstract

This article explores the multidimensional understanding of jihād within the Sufi tradition, focusing on its typology as internal, verbal, and physical struggle (jihād al-nafs, jihād al-lisān, jihād al-Sayf). Drawing on classical Sufi texts, historical accounts, and modern scholarly analyses, the study re-evaluates the perception of Sufism as an exclusively pacifist movement. It argues that early Sufi thinkers such as Al-Ghazālī, Rūmī, and ʿAbdallāh b. al-Mubārak developed an integrated conception of jihād that prioritized spiritual purification but also permitted martial engagement under ethical conditions. The paper highlights the roles of Sufi saints and brotherhoods in resisting tyranny through speech, participating in holy wars, and supporting imperial military structures such as the Janissaries and Mughal armies. In modern times, many Sufi groups have reinterpreted jihād in nonviolent, ethical, and social terms, offering a counterbalance to Salafi-jihadist ideologies. The study concludes that Sufism’s legacy of combining inner discipline with outward responsibility provides a more holistic and historically grounded vision of jihād, one that continues to resonate in contemporary Islamic thought and global religious discourse.
