Abstract

For a servant, taking the mystical way to get closer to Allah is necessary to achieve perfection in this world and the hereafter. This study aims to reveal the mystical ways towards Allah from the perspective of Kyai Sholeh Darat, especially as elaborated in his book Minhāj al-Atqiyā' ilā Ma’rifati Hidāyat al-Adhkiyā' ilā Ṭarīqat al-Auliyā'. This study is qualitative-based research with a descriptive approach. The data were collected from library research. The data were then analysed using the Mile and Huberman analysis. The findings of this study reveal that 1) Kyai Sholeh Darat's book uses references from the Quran, hadith, and the trusted religious texts written by the taṣawwuf scholars; 2) the mystical way or sulūk that a spiritual traveller (sālik) undergoes to get ma'rifatullāh must go through sharī'a, ṭarīqa and ḥaqīqa; and 3) the methods used by Kyai Sholeh Darat in his book are bayānī and irfānī. Contribution: This study affirms that suluk to Allah must go through three paths, namely sharī'a, ṭarīqa and ḥaqīqa. Those three paths cannot be split from one another as there have been movements in which these three aspects are considered separated. For example, to pursue ḥaqīqa, the one only needs ṭarīqa without sharī'a, etc.

Abstract

Sufis were known to have contributed to spreading Islam across the world. This paper seeks to encapsulate the early religious belief of the Nupe people in Bida, Niger state, until the introduction of Islam by the Sufis. The emergence of Sufism was assessed rightly from the time of Qadiriyyah Sufi practice and some scholars that were known with it, like Sheikh Abdulrahman Muhammad bin Sharif and Sheikh Muhammad Wazir (1882-1945), called “Waziri Mamma” before the emergence of Tijjaniyyah Sufi order through a scholar Man-Haruna, alias “Man-yisa Naku” in Banwuya, during the reign of the 2nd Etsu Nupe Muhammadu Saba (1859-1873) known as “Ma’asaba”. The paper adopted a qualitative survey where Interviews were conducted with seasoned Sufi members. The researchers purposively selected participants for the study because they are Muslims and possess knowledge about the phenomenon investigated. The paper provides an overview of some socio-religious practices of Sufis in Bida, Niger State, with the way and manner they are practised in accordance with the teachings of Islam and also reveals the effects of training on adherents by the Sufis in Bida.Contribution: This study contributes to revealing the shift of the Nupe people from polytheism to Monotheism with the role of the Sufis.

Abstract

This paper sheds light on Ibn Arabi’s philosophy of journey, which takes place in an empty space where mystical characters, noble saints, Prophets and Messengers of God are given a chance to communicate and interact peacefully. Considering the hermeneutics’ approach to Sufi discourse and Gilles Deleuze’s concept of nomad thought, we aim to showcase that Ibn Arabi regards the Sufi wayfarers as “nomadic subjects” as long as they can journey to the inward and outward realms. The intersection of these two antagonistic realms— the realm of Seen (al-hiss) and Unseen (al-ghayb)— liberates the Sufi practitioners from spatio-temporal stagnation and transfers them to endless states and multiple becomings that later evolve into spiritual stations (maqāmāt) of stability and certainty.  Contribution: This article highlights the breadth of Ibn Arabi’s nomadic style of thought in shaping the spiritual journey, arguing that the need to unite with God is expressed through a new style of spiritual movement that occurs in an imaginal space where the Sufi is enabled to communicate via his/her heart with other absentees, including noble saints, Messengers of God and Prophets

Abstract

Sufism and ṭarīqa are often associated with awful and negative stigmas for generating laziness, stagnancy, and surrender to misery. Sheikh Fathurahman tackles these assumptions through the teachings of the Idrisiyya Order. This study is qualitative based research. The primary data were collected from books by Sheikh Fathurahman and his lectures uploaded on Youtube, observations, Focus Group Discussions, and direct and indirect interviews. This study found that Sufi revivalism, as initiated by Sheikh Fathurahman, has led to a positive movement. The presence of the ṭarīqa, especially the Idrisiyya Order, amid society has contributed to crucial social changes and innovations in some sectors, such as economics, education, and other social programs. Contribution: This study will give a new insight into the central teaching of taṣawwuf, such as zuhd and tawakkal as reinterpreted by Sheikh Fathurahman under the Idrisiyya Order so that ṭarīqa becomes the locomotive of social change amid Muslim society in Indonesia.

Abstract

The coronavirus disease has been a terrible disaster around since 2019. Various fields of science have contributed to fighting the pandemic. Traditional medicine, multiple therapies, patience, and so on are kinds of contributions from Islam. Talisman or rajah is one of the Islamic traditions. There are many rajahs to prevent or fight the plague. Al-Bulqini's rajah is the focus of this research. Talisman in Islamic culture, moreover in Indonesia, will be discussed in this article. The practice of using talismans to overcome disease is a topic that has been discussed previously. Unfortunately, the practice of using amulets has become less because many Muslims tend to seek more reasonable methods to overcome and fight the disease. Whether the talisman, the Muslim who makes the talisman, or the Muslim belief in the talisman is still questionable. This research studies and elaborates on the culture of making talismans, especially to fight the plague with COVID-19 as a focus.Contribution: This study is essential in contributing to the fact that dealing with the plague can be done in various ways, including from a religious perspective, namely the use of the Rajah, which is common among Muslims. So, treatment can be made not only by a medical approach but also by a religious one.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the interpretation of Ibn 'Aṭāillāh, spread in his Sufism books. Apart from a historical approach, this library research applies a hermeneutic approach to understand the form of Ibn 'Aṭāillāh's Sufistic interpretation. The results reveal that Ibn ‘Aṭāillāh's tafsir product includes 630 verses from 89 surahs. The tafsir epistemology applied by Ibn 'Aṭāillāh uses a Sufism approach to reveal the wisdom of the Qur'an. His motivation is to provide guidance for the salik or spiritual travellers and position the Quran as a source of wisdom and the basis for the concept of Sufism. Ibn 'Aṭāillāh Sufistic interpretation complements other tafsir products and emphasises that the style of interpretation is determined by the approach used by the mufassir and the importance of positioning the Qur'an as a source for understanding religion.Contribution: This research contributes to revealing the Sufistic style of interpretation, which is not limited to verses dealing with ethics. The interpretation style lies in the approach rather than in the theme discussed. All verses can be approached from a Sufistic perspective, as conducted by Ibn 'Aṭāillāh.

Abstract

Modern humans are experiencing various acute crises. Scientific and technological advancements have ironically become a boomerang for humanity, dominating nature and creating a materialistic and hedonistic lifestyle. This study aims to discover Seyyed Hossein Nasr's perspective on spiritual intelligence and the importance of social virtue education in dealing with modern human problems. This qualitative study employs productive interpretation to analyse the data extracted from the main works of Seyyed Hossein Nasr. This study revealed that Nasr's insights shape a fundamental understanding that promotes spiritual awareness within the educational context, encouraging the integration of spiritual values into the social domain. Such integration will create a more just, empathetic, and environmentally conscious society. Nasr's ideas also provide a pathway to address the challenges posed by modernity by returning to spiritual values and adopting a balanced approach to religion and culture.Contribution: The contribution/urgency that the article gives through this exploration is to shed light on the intricate interplay between spirituality, education, and social values, enriching Nasr's timeless contributions.

Abstract

Modern humans experience psychosocial stressors that affect physical and psychological health. This article discusses the strategy and effectiveness of Sufi healing on physical and psychological illnesses as practised at the Rehab Hati Foundation, Cirebon. This study used a phenomenological approach to understand the therapy process and strategy based on Sufi healing. Primary data were obtained from the leaders of the Rehab Hati Foundation, therapists, patients, and guidebooks used by therapists as references in treatment. This study revealed that the Sufi healing-based therapy uses the ruqyah method accompanied by thibbun nabawi (herbal medicine, honey, dates, etc.) and adapted to the disease experienced by the patient and also with spiritual advice. The ruqyah therapy techniques are two kinds, namely ruqyah therapy carried out directly by a therapist, and independent ruqyah therapy carried out by the patient himself or with the help of his family at home.Contribution: This study provides a perspective that the treatment of human illnesses, both physical and psychological, is not only done medically based on medical science. Sufistic therapy, with ruqyah and thibbun Nabawi, can be an alternative to healing human illnesses.
