Abstract

While the Hajj pilgrimage has significant economic dimensions, these are often underexamined from a theological perspective. This study aims to delineate the economic benefits of the Hajj as an integral component of its divine design. Adopting a qualitative, library-based methodology, this research performs a thematic analysis of the exegesis (tafsīr) of key Quranic passages, primarily from Surah Āli 'Imrān, Surah Al-Baqarah, and Surah Al-Hajj, to construct a holistic economic framework. The findings reveal a consistent Quranic theme that integrates economic activity into the pilgrimage. This is presented in a three-phase model: (1) Pre-Hajj economic mobilization, divinely catalyzed by the principle of financial capability (istiṭā'ah); (2) During-Hajj commerce, explicitly sanctioned as seeking "bounty" and witnessing "benefits" (manāfi'); and (3) a Post-Hajj sustained global economic cycle, rooted in the Quranic vision of a worldwide gathering. The central argument is that these economic facets are not incidental but are foundational to the Hajj's divinely ordained purpose. This study contributes a robust theological framework that moves beyond the spiritual-versus-material debate, establishing the Hajj as an integrated spiritual-economic institution that requires a holistic understanding.

Abstract

This article re-examines Javanese Sufism through the lenses of hierarchy, determinism, and free will, adding an explicit economic-political dimension often absent from earlier studies. Drawing on participant observations in three pesantren, semi-structured interviews, and textual analysis of classical and Javanese scholarship, the analysis showed how charismatic teachers and guides converted spiritual authority into material patronage networks, while disciples negotiated between Jabarī rhetoric and pragmatic agency. Two ideal types emerged: an ascetic current that framed free will as self-discipline and distance from power and a common, devotional current that sacralized the submission of the self through collective dhikr and pilgrimage economies. These two approaches can explain Sufism’s success in spreading Islam in Java and its current traction among economically marginal groups. By linking doctrinal debate with money flow, the study extends current scholarship on religion and social change and provides a framework for assessing governance and accountability in Sufi institutions. Sufi institutions are advised to adopt transparent budget disclosure and participatory decision-making so that charismatic authority is balanced by measurable good governance safeguards.

Abstract

The research examines the intellectual journey of Hasan al-Turabi regarding gender and the role of women in Islam. Al-Turabi, an influential Muslim scholar, demonstrates the evolution of his perspectives across several dimensions. This study analyzes Al-Turabi's progressive views on women's role and political participation and their impact on Sudan's Islamic women's movement. However, there is controversy concerning his opinions on leadership, female testimony in Islamic law, and polygamy. This research also illustrates how interpretations of religious teachings shape perceptions of gender equality and the role of religion in initiating social change. Al-Turabi encourages the Muslim community to reexamine sacred texts within the context of the modern era, seeking egalitarian values that align with the spirit of Islam. This exploration highlights the complexity of debates surrounding religion and tradition in the context of social change while promoting a broader understanding of the dynamics of contemporary Muslim societies.

Abstract

The rapid emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has led to the creation of "griefbots" and "digital afterlife" technologies, which simulate interaction with the deceased. This development raises critical, unexamined questions about its impact on bereavement within established religious frameworks. This paper aims to analyze the theopsychological and ethical implications of these technologies from the perspective of Islamic counseling. This study employs a qualitative, library-based research design. It conducts a thematic and comparative analysis of two distinct bodies of literature: classical Islamic texts on spiritual psychology and contemporary academic literature on the psychological and ethical dimensions of grief technology. The findings reveal a profound conflict between the function of griefbots and the Islamic framework for grief. The technology's "illusion of continuity" fundamentally contradicts the core Islamic principle of accepting God's decree (qadr), thus impeding healthy mourning. Furthermore, the artificial dependency fostered by these simulations undermines the spiritual practice of reliance on God (tawakkul), replacing it with a technological surrogate. From an ethical perspective based on the objectives of Islamic law (maq??id al-shar??ah), the technology is identified as a potential source of harm (mafsadah) to an individual's faith and intellect. The study concludes that AI-driven grief technologies are spiritually and psychologically incongruent with a healthy Islamic grieving process. This necessitates the development of a specialized therapeutic approach. The primary implication is the proposed Islamic counseling framework, which provides practical, theologically grounded strategies for guiding individuals away from digital illusions and toward authentic spiritual healing.

Abstract

The increasing tendency among Muslim youth to delay marriage reflects a growing tension between the Qur’anic promise of divine sufficiency and the economic insecurity produced by contemporary neoliberal conditions. Existing studies tend to examine this issue either sociologically or exegetically, leaving limited attention to an integrated theological framework that addresses structural economic precarity. This study employs Fazlur Rahman’s Double Movement theory to reinterpret classical Qur’anic exegeses by reconstructing their original moral vision and contextualizing it within contemporary socioeconomic realities. The study finds that classical Islamic hermeneutics dissociate the legitimacy of marriage from material accumulation, emphasizing spiritual sufficiency and ethical responsibility over market-oriented financial standards. This article proposes a “responsive marital theology” that redefines qanāʿah (contentment) not as passive resignation, but as an active ethical framework for social resilience. By repositioning marriage as a collective social responsibility (farḍ kifāyah), the study offers a theological foundation for institutional and community-based interventions aimed at reducing structural barriers to marriage in contemporary Muslim societies. [Meningkatnya kecenderungan menunda pernikahan di kalangan pemuda Muslim mencerminkan ketegangan antara janji al-Qur’an tentang kecukupan ilahi dan ketidakamanan ekonomi yang dihasilkan oleh kondisi neoliberal kontemporer. Kajian-kajian sebelumnya cenderung membahas persoalan ini secara sosiologis atau eksegetis secara terpisah, sehingga masih terbatas perhatian terhadap kerangka teologis integratif yang mampu menjelaskan problem ketidakpastian ekonomi struktural. Penelitian ini menggunakan teori Double Movement Fazlur Rahman untuk menafsirkan kembali tafsir-tafsir klasik al-Qur’an melalui rekonstruksi visi moral dasarnya dan kontekstualisasinya dalam realitas sosial-ekonomi kontemporer. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hermeneutika Islam klasik memisahkan legitimasi pernikahan dari akumulasi material dengan menekankan kecukupan spiritual dan tanggung jawab etis di atas standar finansial yang berorientasi pasar. Artikel ini menawarkan konsep “teologi pernikahan responsif” yang mendefinisikan ulang qanā‘ah bukan sebagai bentuk kepasrahan pasif, melainkan sebagai kerangka etis aktif bagi ketahanan sosial. Dengan menempatkan kembali pernikahan sebagai tanggung jawab sosial kolektif (farḍ kifāyah), penelitian ini memberikan landasan teologis bagi intervensi institusional dan berbasis komunitas untuk mengurangi hambatan struktural terhadap pernikahan dalam masyarakat Muslim kontemporer.]
