Abstract

Social etiquette—including dining and hospitality etiquette—has almost disappeared in contemporary Yoruba society. This is because some Yoruba individuals have begun to imitate Western practices in everything. Behaviours that do not align with Islamic etiquette in dining and hospitality have become common, particularly among the youth, including young Muslims in Yoruba lands. In this society, those who attempt to adhere to these etiquettes are often considered as nonconformists and sometimes labelled as extremists. This paper, therefore, aims to study the application of dining and hospitality etiquette in the Yoruba community through the views of Ibn Fudi in his commentary entitled: “Diyā’u-t-Ta’wīl”. To achieve the aim of this study, the research employs an analytical method to clarify the etiquettes of dining and hospitality as explained by Ibn Fudi in his Tafsir. in relation to the contemporary Yoruba society. The findings of this study show that deviations from proper dining and hospitality etiquette are widespread in Yoruba land such as eating or drinking with the left hand or while walking, expecting the host to taste the food first before the guest eats and the refusal to dine with those of lower status, among other practices. These behaviours result has caused negative impacts on individuals and society, such as diminished affection, social fragmentation and wishing ill upon others. The solution lies in applying the dining and hospitality etiquettes as outlined in Ibn Fudi’s commentary. The study suggests that scholars in Yorubaland should link the social etiquettes found in Ibn Fudi’s Tafsīr to contemporary Yoruba society for societal improvement. They should also highlight the drawbacks of neglecting Islamic etiquettes, especially in dining and hospitality, and the benefits that their application brings to individuals and the community. Members of the community should also be committed to whatever will help them uphold these etiquettes.

Abstract

The position of Allāh on the Throne is a theological theme that an ample written have been made on it, due to its significance in Islām. It is regarded as part of the attributes of Allāh, hence, it directly and indirectly after the faith of a Muslim. However, various explanations have been given on the meaning of this term contextually and literally from different perspectives especially the various sects in Islam. Thus, the elucidation and view of Ibn Jarīr Aṭ-Ṭabarī on this as contained in his Tafsīr will go a long way in exposing the classical view on this since his Tafsīr served as source of information for many Tafsīr. Therefore, this paper aims at appraising his view along with other theologian views in Islām. The methods that adopted in this study are historical and analytical methods of research. Historical method has been used in accounting for the biography of Aṭ-Ṭabarī, while analytical method applied in elucidating the view of Aṭ-Ṭabarī and other theologian on the topic. The findings of this paper disclose that the exegetic corpus of Aṭ-Ṭabarī views Istiwā’ as among the unseen act that Muslim should believe in. The study concluded by encouraging more research through the verses of the Qur’ān to further theological discussion especially attributes of Allāh from the view of Aṭ-Ṭabarī for better understanding.

Abstract

Social media has become a dominant medium for communication and information exchange in contemporary societies, significantly influencing religious discourse and practice. In the context of Islam, social media platforms have emerged as important tools for Dacwah (Islamic propagation), enabling scholars and preachers to reach diverse audiences across geographical and cultural boundaries. This study examines the merits of the use of social media for Dacwah activities, with particular attention to its role as a source of Islamic knowledge, its wide audience coverage, its contribution to the protection of Muslim rights, its effectiveness in clarifying misconceptions about Islam, its use in fundraising for humanitarian causes, and its facilitation of marriage matchmaking in line with Islamic principles. The study adopts a qualitative research design based on an extensive review and content analysis of relevant scholarly literature, journal articles, books, and credible online sources. Findings reveal that social media enhances access to Islamic knowledge, strengthens engagement between scholars and followers, counters negative stereotypes about Islam, supports charitable initiatives, and provides alternative platforms for lawful matrimonial connections. The study concludes that social media, when responsibly and ethically utilized, offers significant opportunities for effective Dacwah in the modern age. It therefore recommends that qualified Muslim scholars intensify their engagement with social media platforms to promote authentic Islamic teachings and positively influence global perceptions of Islam.
