In general, Asad focuses on the following understanding: Asad interprets verses that mention man's freedom to choose his actions as a gift from God, where man is given the freedom to choose his way of life. In this case, man is fully responsible for the actions he chooses. Second, in his interpretation, Asad refers to the concept of man as the caliph (representative) of Allah on earth. Therefore, humans must shoulder moral and social responsibilities in living life in the world. Third, Asad highlighted that every deed done by man will be rewarded according to his intentions and deeds. Good or bad deeds always have great spiritual consequences.

Abstract

This paper talks about the semantic meaning of the word Shaffa in the Qur'an. The author uses a semantic approach, which is an analytical study of the key terms of a language with a view that finally arrives at a conceptual meaning or worldview. This study uses a qualitative research motto with a descriptive discussion motto of analysis with the type of literature research. This research was conducted to find the meaning of the word Shaffa. Shaffa is based on the weltanschauung (worldview) of the Qur'an. The author uses Toshihiko Izutsu's semantic approach in finding the meaning of the word saffa because Izutsu offers the concept of letting the Qur'an explain and talk about itself' as it has been known in the science of tafsir called tafsir bi al ma'sur or tafsir of verses with verses'. The meaning of "shaffa" or "line" in the Islamic thought tradition, specifically the one discussed by Toshihiko Izutsu, offers a deeper understanding of the relationship between humans, God, and the universe. In Izutsu's studies, the shaffa is not only seen as a physical structure in religious rituals such as prayers, but also as a symbol of unity and harmony created in the diversity of the people. Izutsu interprets the concept of shaffa as a representation of the metaphysical principles that govern the spiritual world, in which each individual, despite having a separate identity, functions in a greater unity in worship of God. This thought leads to the understanding that shaffa reflects the cosmic order that connects the entire creation, affirming the values of togetherness, discipline, and order in society, ultimately serving as a medium for achieving spiritual closeness to God. Thus, according to Izutsu, the shaffa became an important symbol in explaining the spiritual and social order in Islam that was not only ritualistic, but also philosophical and metaphysical.

Abstract

Negative campaigns in regional head elections have become a phenomenon that often appears, not only in Indonesia, but also in various other countries. In the perspective of Islamic law, this negative campaign practice can be linked to the principles of morality and ethics. This is mainly related to the prohibition on spreading slander (namimah), swearing (ghibah) and damaging individual honor. The results of the study show that negative campaigns in regional head elections that contain elements of slander, lies or insults clearly conflict with the values of justice, truth and morals that are upheld in Islam. On the other hand, criticism that is constructive, fact-based, and aims for the benefit of the people, is seen as acceptable in Islamic law, as long as it continues to comply with Sharia norms. This study suggests the importance of strengthening Islamic political ethics education for the community and prospective regional heads, with the aim of building a healthier and more dignified democratic process in accordance with Islamic teachings.

Abstract

Like many countries, Nigeria faces serious security challenges due to heinous activities of the deadly group known as Boko Haram (lit. Western Education is Prohibited (Haram)). Right from her emergence till date, this militant group has been terrorizing lives and properties of innocent citizens of the country under the guise of Jihad. But, this jihad claim is baseless in the light of the group’s wanton violation of life and property, the two of the five necessary human interests (maqāsid daruriyyah) which the Shari’ah seeks to protect. Therefore, this paper studies the Boko Haram Jihad claim viz-a-viz her wanton violation of life and property which are regarded by the Islamic law as inalienable human rights as underscored in the theory of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah (Objectives of Shari’ah). Relevant materials were consulted in libraries to carry out the research. Inter alia, it becomes clear from the findings that the concept of Jihad is a sacred duty in Islam, but it has been abused by Boko Haram as evident in her unjustifiable violation of life and property of innocent citizens. This is against the principles of the Qur‘an and the Sunnah, which the group always claims to defend. The paper argues that, while Jihad is sanctioned in Islam, it is guided by rules and regulations. In addition, life and property are sacrosanct in Islam and nothing can justify their violation as being perpetrated by Boko Haram in Nigeria. Hence, the group’s jihad claim is far from the truth because her activities contradict the lofty objectives of Islamic law (maqāṣid al-sharīʿah) which seek to protect life and property etc. The paper recommends that groups and individuals must have proper understanding of Islam in order to propagate it correctly. Otherwise, the religion of peace would be mistaken for violence and terrorism. Also, the government of Nigeria should ensure fair hearing and justice in dealing with any insurgent groups. This is necessary in view of unfortunate extra-judicial killing of the Boko Haram leader which turned out to be a seed of violence in the northern part of the country
