Abstract

Examining the Maḥabbah concept has unavoidably become an interesting study, particularly via tasawuf lenses. Maḥabbah is a spiritual phase that Sufis encounter in many forms and expressions. Many Sufi leaders documented their experiences in literary works, including al-Busiri’s Burdah poems. A work that is regarded to be high literature consists of compliments to the Prophet Muhammad Saw. The purpose of this study is to discuss the Maḥabbah literature of al-Busiri’s Burdah and how the school of love is internalized in his work, where both concerns are examined through Rūmī's literary conceptions that highlight the Maḥabbah as the means of his tasawuf characteristic. This paper is qualitative library research. This study revealed that the Burdah of al-Busiri matches Jalāluddīn Rūmī's expression, which used metaphors, symbolization of love, and the conception of Maḥabbah.Contribution: By investigating Jalāluddīn Rūmī's notion, this study provides understanding and showing the Maḥabbah values found in al-Busiri's Burdah poems while also illuminating features of the historicity of tasawuf around it.

Abstract

The esoteric aspect of Islam, namely sufism, can provide essential values in influencing people's views and attitudes in their lives that, in turn, motivate them to achieve their goals in life as individuals and as a collective society. This study aims to analyse sufism as part of Islamic teachings, emphasising aspects of social morality (equality, compassion, mutual help, tolerance, ukhuwwah or brotherhood) initiated by M. Amin Syukur. This study applies a qualitative method using a content analysis approach. The results discovered that M. Amin Syukur promotes social sufism, i.e., sufism that concerns social life. Such sufism has characteristics, namely humane, empirical, and functional. M. Amin Syukur's Sufistic idea is rich in human values for creating social order and good community relations.Contribution: This study provides a new understanding that the function of sufism in society can be measured by its role, i.e. its contribution to society. Those who perform spiritual journey (sālik) must be active in all aspects of life, such as economy, politics, and society. Such Sufism by M. Amin Syukur is called social sufism.

Abstract

This paper examines how resilience religiosity using the tazkiyat al-nafs technique is carried out by economic actors from the elements of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) facing a post-pandemic recession. In-depth interviews were conducted with 27 MSME actors. The findings reveal that the pattern of tazkiyat al-nafs as a religiosity resilience used by economic actors from elements of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in facing the post-pandemic recession has succeeded in making it easier for them to adapt and create innovation and creativity to overcome post-pandemic recession conditions. On the other hand, MSME actors who are not in the tazkiyat al-nafs pattern have difficulty adjusting themselves in times of crisis.Contribution: The contribution of this paper is to provide a new understanding that maqāmāt can be used as a self-management technique when facing difficult times. In addition, maqāmāt can also be applied by ordinary people from Sufism teachings. Maqāmāt is a new way of religious resilience.

Abstract

Near-death experiences (NDEs) are closely related to emotional and spiritual dimensions, even though they are subjective. This study aims to reveal the mystical experiences of individuals suffering from COVID-19 after NDEs. This article is qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. With purposive sampling, the data were collected from individuals suffering from COVID-19 who experienced NDEs but recovered. The data were then analysed with interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA). This study reveals that when individuals experience NDEs, they no longer see and feel their physical body but their spirit or soul. They also have mystical experiences, such as being visited and communicating with specific religious figures and even the spirits of people who had died. After NDEs, a comprehensive reconstruction occurs regarding their personal beliefs and values regarding life and death, especially their relationship with God.Contribution: This study contributes to revealing the mystical experience of people after near-death experience (NDE). This study can be a recommendation, counselling, therapy and various psychological and religious interventions for individuals who experience NDE to accept their death more easily.

Abstract

The phenomenon of urban Sufism represents the new form of Sufism in the modern era. However, the diversity in urban society shows the dynamic of Sufism. This article is a qualitative study based on a library investigation that applies the Sufistic approach. Data collection was carried out by examining sources related to urban Sufism. This article found that internal and external factors influence the formation of religiosity in urban society. By nature, human beings need spirituality to seek their essence. In contrast, the external factors are discourses of modernisation and globalisation which are increasingly strengthened by some factors such as self-alienation, spiritual dryness, loss of humanism, hedonism, and materialism. The type of religiosity needed by modern urban society is universal, humane, social, logical, inclusive, and based on love and the principle of freedom.Contribution: This study contributes to providing a new horizon of religious reconstruction, especially for urban communities that need a more open and inclusive model of religiosity.

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

The present article examines Bāyazīd Bisṭāmī’s reputation as a mystic of “intoxication” (sukr). The origin and validity of such labels are analyzed by examining their most famous example. It should be noted that for the first time, the author of Kashf al-Maḥjūb labels Bāyazīd as the pioneer of “intoxicated” Ṣūfis. Thus, the main question of this paper is to find out whether Hujwīrī had a correct criterion in his attribution of the ‘Path of Intoxication’ to Bāyazīd or Ibn’ Arabī was right in referring to Bāyazīd’s eminence and fixity (Tamkin). In other words, Hujwīrī introduces Bāyazīd as an intoxicated Ṣūfi, and Ibn’ Arabī calls him as a sober gnostic. To explore our question, we have critically examined Kashf al-Maḥjūb and Hujwīrī’s other reports and have argued that Hujwīrī’s main criterion for attribution of intoxication to Bāyazīd is due to his ecstatic utterances, which is not always an applicable criterion. Moreover, because intoxication and sobriety are not alike and identical, dividing Ṣūfis into two separate sects as ‘intoxicated’ and ‘sober’ is not a precise division. Also, calling a certain sect Ṭayfūriyya can be of Hujwīrī’s own innovation. Then, taking into consideration the words of Ibn’ Arabī about Bāyazīd, we have presented some evidence of Bāyazīd’s sayings and mystical practices to indicate his sobriety.Contribution: This study accurately portrays a renowned Islamic mystic while enhancing the understanding of mystical concepts. It also explores the origins of labeling in Islamic history, illustrating how labels emerge and are subsequently perpetuated by later authors despite inadequate citation or contrary documentation.

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.

Abstract

Javanese-Islamic mysticism believes that humans can find God (in union with Him) through wisdom. The concepts are similar to Sufism, such as Ittiḥād, ḥulūl, and Waḥdat al-wujūd. This study aims to discover the formulation of Javanese-Islamic mysticism teachings in Serat Nitisruti by Prince Karanggayam. The primary data were obtained from Javanese manuscripts, namely Serat Nitisruti, compiled by Prince Karanggayam (1591-1612 AD), from the early days of Pajang to the end of Pajang (controlled by Mataram). Prince Karanggayam was the first poet and an Islamic preacher in Pajang. This study applies the cultural analysis of Koentjaraningrat. The results show that Javanese-Islamic mysticism in Serat Nitisruti has four stages; purification of kapti (heart), atunggal marang Gusti (union with God), nugrahaning widhi (God’s blessing), and the last is application stage, i.e., managing the world or doing actual actions. If someone can reach the third stage, he deserves to be called waskitha. However, if those stages are not completed with the application stage, the result will be imperfect. Therefore, Javanese-Islamic mysticism has its reasoning and logic by Javanese society at that time, namely, ngelmu kanthi laku; knowledge must be accompanied by actual actions.Contribution: This study uncovers the teachings of the spiritual journey based on local wisdom among Javanese Muslims, as contained in Serat Nitisruti, which Prince Karanggayam compiled.

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.
