Abstract

The debate over whether morality is innate (nature) or the result of learning and environment (nurture) is a fundamental discourse in the history of human thought. This article aims to critically and comparatively analyze the views of Islamic and Western thought on the nature of morality. Three main questions are the focus of this study: (1) Is morality permanent, or can it be changed through training?; (2) How are moral laws determined, based on intention or consequence?; and (3) What is the primary source of moral requirements?. This study employs a qualitative approach, utilizing a library research method. Data were collected through documentation techniques from various primary and secondary sources, including books, scientific journals, and relevant philosophical works. The collected data was then analyzed using Miles and Huberman's interactive analysis model, which includes three stages: data reduction, data display, and conclusions. This study reveals that in Islamic thought, morality is viewed as an innate potential that can be shaped and refined through education and self-improvement. Moral judgment is centred on intention (niyyah), with reason and revelation as sources of ethics that work synergistically. Conversely, Western thought tends to debate the fixed or changeable nature of morality, emphasizing the consequences of actions as a moral standard. Within the framework of ethics, rationality and social responsibility are the main foundations for formulating moral standards.

Abstract

Contemporary Islamic education faces an epistemological crisis marked by the dichotomy between religious and non-religious sciences due to the adoption of a secular paradigm that separates the value of tawhid from the learning process, resulting in fragmented knowledge and the loss of balance in the hierarchy of knowledge (loss of adab). This study aims to analyze Q.S. al-Baqarah [2]:163 using a tafsir tarbawi approach to identify the core principles of tawhid and their implications for the epistemological foundations of Islamic education, as well as to construct a tawhid-based conceptual framework as an alternative paradigm to overcome the knowledge–religion dichotomy. Using a library research design and a tafsir tarbawi methodology that integrates linguistic-grammatical, contextual (munasabah al-ayat), and comparative-critical analysis of classical and contemporary commentaries, the study identifies five central principles of tawhid: (1) tawhid al-ma‘rifah (unity of the source of truth), (2) kulliyyat al-rahmah (universality of divine mercy), (3) nafy al-shirk (negation of partners to God), (4) takamul al-‘ubudiyyah wa al-khilafah (integration of vertical and horizontal dimensions), and (5) ta‘yin al-huwiyah al-ma‘rifiyyah (formation of epistemic identity). These principles generate ontological implications (a theocentric-anthropocentric conception of the human and fitrah), epistemological implications (integration of revelation, reason, and empirical inquiry, alongside a methodology resistant to secularization), and axiological implications (mercy, justice, integrity, and social-ecological responsibility). Q.S. al-Baqarah [2]:163 thus provides a theological-epistemological foundation for an Islamic education paradigm that integrates spiritual, intellectual, and moral dimensions, whose implementation requires curriculum reconstruction that harmonizes diverse disciplines within a tawhidic framework and the development of holistic assessment systems that measure cognitive, moral, and spiritual domains in an integrated manner.

Abstract

This study aims to compare the Java War and the Mahdi War as 19th-century holy revolts. This article contributes to an alternative history of the Java War, with the central figure being Prince Diponegoro, and, at the same time, places it in a global colonial context and connects it to the Mahdist War in Sudan. In its analysis, this study uses historical methods, political approaches, and conflict theory. The analysis in this study shows that the outbreak of the Java and the Mahdist War positioned Islam as the driving force behind the resistance, which was primarily caused by the political degradation of colonialism that gripped Java and Sudan. In this context, the combatants in the Java and Mahdist wars believed that their fight was a form of jihad (holy war). In the context of historiography, this article contributes to broadening the reading of colonial war history by placing Islam as an important basis for legitimacy and mobilization in the anti-colonial struggle.

Abstract

Digital infidelity among young Muslim couples has increased alongside the expansion of media ecologies that reshape interpersonal intimacy, trust structures, and hybrid interaction spaces. This study examines how virtual cheating contributes to marital conflict and divorce, and reassesses the axiology of ṭalāq within Islamic legal philosophy to determine the moral value, intentionality, and ethical limits of divorce in the digital era. Using a qualitative library-based method with a normative–philosophical approach, this research employs interpretive and conceptual analysis of literature on digital infidelity, the axiology of divorce, and maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. The findings reveal that digital cheating generates ambiguous evidence, multilayered trust erosion, and violations of intentionality that are morally comparable to physical infidelity. The axiological analysis affirms that the legitimacy of ṭalāq in digital cases depends on the degree of harm, emotional betrayal, and the feasibility of reconciliation. This study offers an ethical framework for assessing divorce and a value-based reconciliation model grounded in Islamic philosophy, contributing conceptually to contemporary Islamic family law in the context of digital relational transformation.

Abstract

Although Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia (HTI) was officially banned by the Indonesian government in 2017, its movement and ideological influence continue at the grassroots level in a more adaptive form. This phenomenon is clearly visible in various activities among urban youth communities in Makassar. Therefore, this article aims to explore the movement to spread and strengthen the ideological basis of Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia after it was banned, through grassroots da’wah among youth communities in Makassar. This study employs a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach. The study focuses on the Genk Pemuda Surga (GPS) and Makassar Bina Taqwa (MBT) communities. Data collection was conducted through participant observation, in-depth interviews, document analysis, and observation of digital activities. Data collection was carried out from January to June 2025. The data were analyzed thematically through transcription, coding, and pattern identification to reveal the processes of ideology internalization and the da’wah strategies used by the two communities. This study found that even though Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia no longer maintains a formal or symbolic presence as an organization, the dissemination of its ideology has metamorphosed and continues to operate through non-formal but structured forms of da’wah. In this context, the Genk Pemuda Surga (GPS) and Makassar Bina Taqwa (MBT) communities use informal religious spaces, such as youth study circles, weekly gatherings, community-based activities, and digital platforms, to spread an exclusive Islamic narrative that often rejects Indonesia’s democratic political system. These findings indicate that banning organizations does not necessarily eliminate ideologies, but instead encourages the transformation of da’wah into a more fluid, relational, and cultural form.

Abstract

Globalization presents significant challenges to the existence of local wisdom, including the Besaprah tradition in Sambas Malay society. Therefore, this article aims to examine Besaprah as a dynamic and adaptive cultural practice that lies at the intersection of Sambas’ Malay cultural identity, local Islam, and efforts to maintain its existence amid social change and modernity. This study uses qualitative methods, including an oral history approach, and draws on document and literature reviews, as well as in-depth interviews with religious, traditional, and community leaders. Data were collected between April and May 2021, and sources were verified and analyzed using cultural history theories and concepts. The results show that Besaprah is an expression of the cultural identity of the Sambas Malay and a symbol of Islamic teachings, egalitarian values, social solidarity, and modesty. Support from religious and traditional leaders, state recognition through registration as Intangible Cultural Heritage (WBTb), and cultural festivals are methods used to preserve this tradition. In conclusion, Besaprah is an adaptive and dynamic cultural practice that helps the Sambas Malay community preserve its cultural identity, embody Islamic principles, and enhance social cohesion.

Abstract

The adaptability of universal religious values has long enabled local wisdom, such as Wayang, to play an important role in the internalization of Islamic values in Indonesia. Therefore, this article aims to explore Ki Warsono Plonk’s internalization of Islam Nusantara values through Wayang performances, da’wah strategies, and the implications for society. The study employs a qualitative case study design through interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis shows that Ki Warsono Plonk conveys Islamic values through the selection of relevant plays, humorous Punakawan dialogues, Islamic-themed suluk, and direct advice to the audience. Ki Warsono Plonk also successfully balances entertainment and da’wah, ensuring the moral message is well received. The wayang performance has increased the community’s understanding of tolerant Islam and strengthened the preservation of local culture.

Abstract

This article analyses the form and style of Nizar Qabbani’s language in his poem “Ahla Khabar” (The Most Beautiful News). This poem is known for its rich visual imagery, symbols, and influential figures of speech, making it an ideal object for stylistic analysis. The method used is a descriptive, qualitative approach, based on library research, to examine literary sources and analyse the poem’s language style in depth. The analysis shows that Nizar Qabbani uses several stylistic techniques, including hyperbole, personification, and repetition. Hyperbole is used to express the intensity of the poet’s love, which transcends the boundaries of the real world. Personification brings the universe to life. Repetition serves to emphasize the message, strengthen the intensity, and create a beautiful poetic rhythm, showing that the confession of love is written everywhere. Overall, these stylistic devices not only beautify the poem but also play an important role in constructing meaning, strengthening emotional expression, and conveying the poetic message about the depth, universality, and eternity of love.
