Abstract

Indonesia is widely recognized as a multicultural society in which religious and cultural diversity shapes everyday social relations. Medan City, a major urban center in North Sumatra, provides a concrete context for examining how diversity is nurtured and maintained through local cultural practices. This article analyzes the construction of relations between religion and local culture in Medan, focusing on how these relations contribute to social harmony in a plural urban setting. The study employs a qualitative descriptive-analytical method based on literature review, policy documents, and relevant previous studies. The findings indicate that religious diversity—encompassing Islam, Protestantism, Catholicism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Confucianism—intersects with ethnic plurality in daily social practices such as communal celebrations, traditional rituals, and economic cooperation. These interactions demonstrate that local culture functions as a practical mechanism for fostering tolerance, mutual respect, national commitment, and non-violence. Despite ongoing challenges related to identity politics and disputes over houses of worship, the article argues that local cultural practices play a mediating role in sustaining interreligious harmony. This study contributes to urban pluralism scholarship by emphasizing diversity as a lived and negotiated process rooted in local cultural dynamics.

Abstract

Natural disasters are phenomena that have consistently appeared throughout human history and have often generated diverse theological interpretations within society. Disasters are frequently understood in a fatalistic manner or solely associated with divine wrath, thereby neglecting the dimensions of wisdom and human responsibility. This article aims to examine the concept of disaster as sunnatullah (divine law) from the perspective of the Prophet’s hadiths, particularly within the framework of divine decree (qaḍā’ and qadar). This study employs a qualitative library-based method using a thematic (maudhu‘i) hadith approach, involving the identification, classification, and analysis of hadiths related to calamities, trials, and God’s decree. The findings indicate that the Prophet’s hadiths position disasters as part of sunnatullah, rich in meaning as tests of faith, means of expiating sins, and instruments of spiritual education for humanity. These hadiths also emphasize a balance between divine decree and human effort (ikhtiar), thereby rejecting passive fatalistic understandings. Understanding disasters as sunnatullah in the hadith literature has implications for strengthening patience, promoting active trust in God (tawakkul), and fostering social responsibility in responding to disasters. Accordingly, this study is expected to contribute both theologically and practically to the development of a more contextual, humanistic, and relevant understanding of hadith in relation to contemporary disaster realities.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis pemikiran Seyyed Hossein Nasr mengenai etika lingkungan dan relevansinya bagi pembangunan ekonomi hijau dalam perspektif Islam. Sebagai tokoh mazhab Perennial dan filsafat Islam kontemporer, Nasr menegaskan pentingnya mengembalikan kesakralan alam (sacred nature) melalui kosmologi tauhid, konsep manusia sebagai khalifah dan pemegang amanah, serta kritik terhadap saintisme dan reduksionisme modern yang memicu krisis ekologis. Studi ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif berbasis studi pustaka dan analisis hermeneutik-konseptual terhadap karya-karya Nasr dan literatur terkait ekoteologi Islam dan keuangan/ekonomi syariah berkelanjutan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan: (1) etika lingkungan Islam berbasis tauhid, mizan (keseimbangan), ‘adl (keadilan), dan larangan israf (ekses) menyediakan prinsip normatif untuk tata kelola sumber daya; (2) ekonomi hijau dalam Islam perlu ditopang oleh maqasid al-syari‘ah yang menegaskan kemaslahatan lintas generasi; (3) instrumen kelembagaan seperti zakat lingkungan, wakaf hijau, hisbah, dan sukuk hijau dapat mengoperasionalkan nilai etis ke dalam kebijakan; (4) agenda operasional meliputi standar ESG syariah, rantai pasok halal sirkular, dan pengukuran dampak. Artikel ini menawarkan kerangka sintesis “Sacred-Value Green Economy” untuk mengintegrasikan spiritualitas, etika, dan instrumen ekonomi hijau berbasis syariah.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to explore Jean-Paul Sartre’s existentialist perspective on human existence, emphasizing radical freedom and the responsibility of individuals in defining their own meaning in life. The research investigates how Sartre's concept of existentialism positions humans as autonomous subjects in constructing their essence. Methodology: This study employs a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach, utilizing a literature review method. The primary sources include Sartre’s major works, such as Being and Nothingness, along with secondary analyses from contemporary existentialist scholars. Data are analyzed through content analysis to examine Sartre’s views on freedom, responsibility, and self-determination. Main Findings: The findings reveal that Sartre perceives human existence as devoid of inherent meaning, compelling individuals to create their own purpose through conscious choices. His concept of bad faith illustrates the tendency to escape from existential responsibility, whereas authentic existence requires embracing radical freedom. Sartre’s framework highlights the psychological tension between autonomy and existential anxiety. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study offers a fresh interpretation of Sartre’s existentialism by relating his views to contemporary issues of identity, freedom, and personal responsibility. It extends the discussion of existentialist ethics in modern society and provides a deeper analysis of Sartre’s influence on current philosophical and social discourses on human autonomy.
