Abstract

This study examines the practice of accepting Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds from PT. Sukun Wartono Indonesia by the Kudus Grand Mosque Foundation from an Islamic religious ethics perspective. PT. Sukun, as a company engaged in the cigarette industry, poses an ethical dilemma for religious institutions that accept its assistance. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study explores the views of mosque administrators on the CSR assistance and analyzes them through the framework of maqasid al-shariah and the principle of maslahah mursalah. The results indicate that although the funds originate from a controversial industry, mosque administrators assess that the social and religious benefits outweigh the potential harms. The acceptance of funds is based on considerations of the greater good of the community and the principle of social justice, provided that the purpose of the funds aligns with Islamic values. This study emphasizes the importance of contextual and flexible policies in the management of religious social funds. It also recommends that future research examine the perspectives of companies, particularly in their public relations strategies and efforts to build their image through religiously-based CSR initiatives.

Abstract

The dominance of rigid textual and monolithic methodological approaches in religious studies has increasingly limited the scope of critical and contextual inquiry. This article examines the relevance of Paul Feyerabend’s epistemological anarchism as an alternative framework for enriching the methodology of religious sciences, particularly Islamic studies. Employing a qualitative library-based approach, the study analyzes Feyerabend’s major works through conceptual and content analysis, alongside relevant secondary literature in the philosophy of science and religious studies. The findings demonstrate that Feyerabend’s rejection of a single, universal scientific method—articulated through principles such as “anything goes,” counterinduction, theory proliferation, and incommensurability—offers a productive challenge to methodological rigidity in religious scholarship. His emphasis on methodological pluralism opens space for more inclusive, dynamic, and context-sensitive approaches to theological inquiry and Qur’anic interpretation. The study argues that integrating Feyerabend’s epistemological insights enables religious studies to move beyond methodological absolutism by incorporating sociological, historical, and contextual analyses without undermining the normative role of religious texts. In conclusion, Feyerabend’s epistemological anarchism contributes conceptually to the development of a more adaptive and dialogical paradigm in religious sciences, allowing religious knowledge to engage more effectively with contemporary social realities.
