Abstract

The modern positivistic paradigm, which places significant emphasis on empirical verification, has led to a shift in the position of Islamic sciences. Islamic sciences, which rely on a balance between revelation, reason, and human experience, have been affected by this shift. In the intellectual history of Islam, the mystical dimension has played an important role in shaping the conception of science. This raises critical questions about the role of Islamic epistemology in contemporary intellectual discourse. This article highlights the need for a reconstruction of Islamic epistemology that unites metaphysics, rationality, and revelation as its main pillars. The prevailing imbalance among these three elements hinders the advancement of Islamic epistemology. By anchoring Islamic epistemology in metaphysics, it aims to present an alternative to the prevailing modern paradigm and contribute to the development of knowledge that is more pertinent to contemporary challenges. The reconstruction of Islamic epistemology seeks to integrate revelation and reason in a more balanced and systematic manner, with metaphysics serving as the conceptual bridge that unites the two. This integration, the study posits, creates new opportunities for dialogue between empirical science and metaphysical understanding, as well as encourages a more holistic perspective in the study of Islam.

Abstract

The backpacker umrah phenomenon reflects the community’s aspiration to perform worship in a more flexible and economical manner, yet it simultaneously generates serious concerns from both positive law and sharī’ah perspectives, as it is conducted outside the framework of official state mechanisms. This study analyzes backpacker Umrah from the perspective of Maqashid al-Shariah and legal sociology and offers ideal regulations that protect pilgrims. This research is an empirical legal study that uses primary data from a Google Form questionnaire to analyze the reasons and objectives of pilgrims performing Umrah as backpackers, supported by legal materials in the form of statutory regulations. The research findings demonstrate that the phenomenon of backpacker umrah embodies broader social dynamics and represents community responses to economic constraints and technological developments, as pilgrims increasingly opt for a more flexible and affordable mode of worship. In the perspective of legal sociology and maqashid asy-syariah, this practice demonstrates a culturally legitimate social construction, but it creates tension with formal regulations, particularly in aspects of security, legal protection, and compliance with legislation. Although it provides benefits to some segments of society, backpacker umrah still carries potential harms that need to be addressed proportionally. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that regulations governing ḥajj and umrah be more effectively organized to prevent long queues for pilgrims, and that specific provisions addressing backpacker umrah be formulated to ensure legal protection, along with guarantees of safety and comfort for those undertaking the pilgrimage independently.
