Abstract

This article is an attempt to respond the following two questions; what is the nature of peusijeuk and how it is related to human well-being, and how peusijeuk works as a therapy. Grounded on a critical view upon mainstream theories of psychology, this work accordingly advocate indigenous psychology by majorly comparing it to behaviourist and psycho-analysis theories and, more importantly, presents an alternative therapy for well-being, namely; Peusijeuk therapy.  Quasi-experiments is the main method used to measure the work of peusijeuk as an alternative therapy, while in-depth interview procedure also employed for unearthing therapeutical competences of peusijeut and its philosophical justification.  Finally, the article brings about materials used for Peusijuek and the philosophical signification, steps, and mechanisms of Peusijeuk therapy performance. Grounded in the experiment of five participants and enlightened by Islamic mysticism, such as Ibn Arabi’s teachings, I argue that many elements of nature, e.g., scent, water, soil, rice, salt, tree leaves, and trunks, have baraka, so humans can spiritually benefit from the environment, by way of performing Peusijuek ritual procedures. By doing so, they are able to attain their power/energy, which bring them happiness and improve human mental well-being.

Abstract

This study explores the complexities of Islam in Cyprus, focusing on the interplay between local and transnational Islamic identities within modern Muslim societies. Utilizing a qualitative case study approach, the research draws on secondary data from academic sources to analyze how these identities influence religious practices among Muslim communities in Cyprus. The thematic analysis reveals significant patterns in the historical evolution of Islam on the island, highlighting the diversity within its Muslim population and the impact of both textual and contextual factors on their practices. Findings indicate a dynamic interaction between local traditions, particularly Ottoman customs, and global Islamic influences, including transnational movements. This synthesis results in a unique Islamic identity that integrates historical continuity with contemporary adaptations. The insights gained contribute to a deeper understanding of how Muslim societies navigate their religious practices amidst local and global contexts, thereby enriching contemporary Islamic studies and discussions on religious integration in secular states.Keywords: Islam in Cyprus, modern Muslim societies, transnational context, Islamic identity, religious integration

Abstract

This study explores religious moderation within the halaqah education system in West Sumatra, emphasizing the integration of tolerance, harmony, and local wisdom into its curriculum and teaching methods. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, the research investigates how halaqah education shapes the character of santri and upholds moderate Islamic traditions in the community. The findings reveal that halaqah education remains highly relevant in West Sumatran society due to its ability to adapt to contemporary developments while preserving traditional values. This system has proven effective in fostering religious moderation, promoting tolerance, and nurturing respect for diversity. Consequently, halaqah education serves not only as a platform for transmitting religious knowledge but also as a tool for developing the character of santri to be moderate and open-minded. The study concludes that halaqah-based education significantly contributes to sustaining moderate Islamic traditions, addressing the challenges of modernity, and enhancing social cohesion in a multicultural context.Keywords: Halaqah, religious moderation, local wisdom, West Sumatra

Abstract

Abstract: This study investigates factors contributing to the decontextualisation of dayah as an Islamic educational institution in Aceh. Qualitative research methods, including observation, interviews, and document review, were used to collect data and gain insights into this phenomenon. This study highlights three findings: first, an authoritarian relationship between teungku (Islamic scholars) and students hinders meaningful connection and engagement; second, the use of hierarchical teaching methods further reinforces this disconnection, limiting opportunities for collaboration and active learning; third, outdated facilities present challenges in modernising and adapting dayah institutions. By addressing these factors, dayah institutions can effectively restore their connection with Acehnese youth and foster a comprehensive and contemporary Islamic education. It is recommended that teungku in Aceh integrate technology into their teaching methods, ensuring relevance and appeal to the young generation. This study also shows the need for dayah institutions in Aceh to adapt to the evolving educational landscape and embrace technological advancements. This research contributes to the discourse on educational transformation in Aceh by providing insights into the challenges and potential strategies for revitalizing dayah institutions in the face of a changing educational milieu.Keywords: decontextualization, Islamic traditional learning, dayah, Aceh’s millineal

Abstract

Abstract: This article investigates the role of the Al Jam‘iyatul Washliyah, one of Indonesia’s largest Islamic organizations, in developing hadith studies in the country. This study is based on library research and employs a historical approach. The findings indicate that hadith has been introduced and taught across all Al Washliyah educational institutions from the Dutch colonial period to the present. Several Al Washliyah scholars have published works on hadith studies in both Arabic and Indonesian. Furthermore, the Al Washliyah Fatwa Council, as the organization’s religious authority, acknowledges hadith as the second source of Islamic law. However, it is noted that some fatwas issued by the Council do not heavily rely on the apparent meaning of hadith as a legal reference, but rather refer to established rulings within the Shâfi‘î madhhab.Keywords: hadith, Al Washliyah, madrasah, Islamic university, fatwa, ‘ulamâ’Abstrak: Artikel ini mengkaji peran Al Jam’iyatul Washliyah sebagai salah satu organisasi Islam terbesar di Indonesia dalam pengembangan kajian hadis di Indonesia. Sebagai sebuah penelitian kepustakaan yang menggunakan pendekatan historis, artikel ini mengajukan temuan bahwa para guru di lembaga pendidikan Al Washliyah telah mengenalkan dan mengajarkan sejumlah kitab hadis dan ilmu hadis sejak era kolonial Belanda sampai saat ini. Beberapa ulama Al Washliyah seperti M. Arsjad Th. Lubis, Yusuf Ahmad Lubis, H.M. Husein A. Karim, dan Ramli Abdul Wahid juga telah menulis buku dalam bidang kajian hadis. Ada yang ditulis dalam bahasa Arab dan ada juga yang ditulis dalam bahasa Indonesia. Beberapa ulama juga telah menghasilkan artikel tentang hadis atau ilmu hadis. Dewan Fatwa Al Washliyah sebagai lembaga syariah organisasi juga menjadikan hadis sebagai sumber kedua hukum Islam, meskipun beberapa fatwa lembaga ini terlihat tidak mengutip hadis sebagai dalil penetapan hukum. Dewan Fatwa tampaknya lebih banyak merujuk pendapat para ulama mazhab Shâfi‘îyah.Kata Kunci: hadis, Al Washliyah, madrasah, universitas Islam, fatwa, ulama
