Abstract

This research examines the history of the Crusades and their impact on Islamic civilization and the thinking of ulama in the modern era. The Crusades were a series of conflicts that began with religious motives and turned political and economic. Regarding zonation, the Crusades were initially centered around Jerusalem, then spread to various other areas and took place between 1096 and 1365 AD. The focus of the study in this article includes: (1)History and factors that led to the Crusades, (2)Periodization of the Crusades, (3)The impact of the Crusades on the progress of Western nations and the decadence of civilization in the East, (4)Thoughts on the continuing gap between Islam and Christianity after the Crusades and (5)What Muslims should do to prevent the decadence of civilization. Through qualitative research methods with a literature review, this research found several conclusions: (1)The Crusades manifested European expansionism. (2)The Crusades had several significant impacts on the progress of European nations; (3)The Islamic world experienced decadence in various areas of life due to this series of events, both in Andalusia, Baghdad, Jerusalem, and other Islamic regions, (4)Even though the Muslims were successful defending most of its territory from attacks by the crusaders, the losses they suffered were very large. The Islamic world has been hit by various religious, political, socio-economic, educational, and cultural crises. These losses resulted in the weakening of the political power of Muslims, which further worsened the condition of division (5)Even though the Crusades ended several centuries ago, stereotypes of Muslims and even ulama in the modern era consider that every religious conflict is an extension of The Crusades. This research is very useful in providing a horizon for reading major conflicts between religious communities and the motives behind religious interests, as well as things that Muslims need to pay attention to so that they are always alert to all forms of attacks in the name of religion.

Abstract

This study departs from the central question: how is the form of the Living Qur’an manifested in the Barzanji tradition in Gunungtelu Village, Karangpucung District, Cilacap Regency, and what are its impacts on worship practices and the community’s religious life? The purpose of this research is to analyze the expression of the Living Qur’an through the Barzanji tradition and to examine its influence on the religious practices of the local community. The research employs a qualitative field method with a phenomenological approach, in which data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out descriptively, analytically, and interpretatively, using Ahmad Rafiq’s Living Qur’an theoretical framework. The findings reveal that the recitation of Barzanji in Gunungtelu is based on QS. al-Ahzab [33]: 56 and is routinely practiced twice a week. This tradition not only strengthens religious practices such as congregational prayer, dhikr, and religious study but also cultivates love for the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), reinforces social solidarity, and serves as a medium for integrating religious values with Nahdlatul Ulama culture. Thus, the Living Qur’an in the practice of Barzanji is present not merely as a text to be recited but as a socio-cultural practice that shapes religious habitus and preserves local Islamic heritage.
