Abstract

Al-Baghdādī holds a significant position within the early Ash‘ari epistemological tradition. His work, Usul al-Dīn, offers a systematic explanation of the foundational principles of Sunni belief, integrating an epistemological framework that draws from both the Ash‘ari intellectual tradition and the broader Islamic intellectual heritage. This study employs qualitative textual analysis of Usul al-Dīn, focusing primarily on how Al-Baghdādī articulates various epistemological concepts. Several themes are explored within the text, including the definition, classification, and sources of knowledge. The analysis reveals that Al-Baghdādī places knowledge as the foundational principle in his theological discussions. Through his structured and profound approach, Al-Baghdādī views epistemology as an essential tool for resolving theological issues, providing a rational foundation for understanding Islamic faith. This focus on epistemology not only lays the groundwork for the further development of Ash‘ari thought but also solidifies the position of Ilm al-Kalam as a rational and systematic discipline. By critically engaging with various foreign epistemologies, Al-Baghdādī not only strengthens Islamic theological arguments but also expands the intellectual horizons of Islamic theology itself.

Abstract

This research examines the concept of good fathering in the story of the Prophet Jacob and its contextualization in the concept of modern parenting. This type of research is library research by collecting verses from the Quran and related hadiths, so the method used is the  thematic (maudhu'i) method. The data was analyzed using qualitative content analysis in accordance with the procedures in the maudhu'i interpretation method, namely categorizing the collected data into sub-themes, then structuring and analyzing them. The results of this research are: First, the concept of good fathering contained in the story of the prophet Ya'qub is reflected in his role as a successful father in educating, caring for and accompanying his children who have diverse behavior, and successfully manage problems between siblings. The principles of good fathering that can be taken from the story of the Prophet Jacob are, the function of father as educator (QS 12: 17, 18, 83-87, 94-98), father as protector (QS 12: 4-5, 63-67), father as decision maker (QS 12: 67, 87), father as guardian of harmonious family relationships (QS 12: 17-18, 83-87, 94-98), and father as director of the family vision (QS 12: 38). Second, the concept of good fathering of the Prophet Jacob is very relevant to be contextualized in modern parenting. Prophet Jacob educated his children using a democratic-authoritative parenting model, which prioritizes dialogue with patience and affection. This type of parenting model is very relevant to be applied to raising children amidst the current liberal parenting model in the modern era today.

Abstract

This study discusses the ideology applied by traditional Horsebow archers in South Sumatra, specifically within the Perkumpulan Pemanah Berkuda Indonesia (Perdana). The aim of this research is to understand the ideological concepts held by the traditional archery community, analyze the training processes they undergo, and investigate their influence and contributions to strengthening collective identity and enhancing the performance of its members. Using an ethnographic approach, this research reveals the significant role of the Horsebow archer ideology in fortifying local cultural roots, expanding influence, and achieving achievements at national and international levels. This traditional archery practice not only strengthens the Islamic cultural heritage but also enhances the technical skills of community members while enriching their collective identity. The dedication of the younger generation in preserving traditional practices and applying these ideological values has proven to result in achievements, build strong social bonds, and make a significant contribution to preserving religious and national values. The ideology upheld by the Horsebow archers also plays a role in strengthening national identity through sport and tradition, while celebrating cultural diversity in Indonesia.

Abstract

Fraud is a widespread issue that can cause significant harm across various sectors, including government, business, and educational institutions. Several theories, such as the Fraud Triangle, Fraud Diamond, and Fraud Hexagon, have been developed to understand the factors that drive individuals to commit fraud. This research aims to analyze the role of religiosity values in minimizing fraudulent actions using a qualitative method and a literature study approach. Data were collected through an analysis of literature from journals, books, and previous research that examined the relationship between religiosity and fraudulent behavior. The findings indicate that religiosity plays a significant role in reducing individuals' intention and opportunity to commit fraud. Individuals with a good understanding of religion tend to have a stronger moral awareness, making it more difficult for them to rationalize fraudulent actions. Furthermore, religious values can help individuals manage pressure and suppress ego/arrogance, which are key elements in the Fraud Hexagon theory. Although religiosity serves as a deterrent to fraud, this study also finds that external factors such as opportunity and collusion continue to contribute to fraudulent behavior.

Abstract

This article examines scholarly views on the precision (ḍabṭ) of the Prophet's Companions in narrating hadiths by comparing early and contemporary hadith literature. The aim of this research is to reveal whether the quality of precision is truly guaranteed in the Prophet's Companions as is their integrity ('adālah), and to explain various arguments related to this matter. This research also attempts to address criticisms questioning the validity of Companions' narrations on the grounds that they are not ma'ṣūm (infallible); as ordinary humans with the potential for error and forgetfulness, and not all Companions having the same level of intelligence (ḍabṭ). This research is library-based with a qualitative method that conducts in-depth analysis of authoritative works in hadith literature, covering phases from early to contemporary. The research finds that Imam al-Ḥāfiẓ Ibn Ḥajar al-'Asqalānī is among the scholars who explicitly state that all Companions possess the quality of ḍabṭ, placing the status of Companions at the highest position in the levels of al-ta'dīl (authentication). Meanwhile, the opinion initiated by Imam al-Ṣan'ānī and followed by several contemporary scholars states that the guarantee of Companions' integrity does not automatically guarantee their precision, with various arguments including the fact that some Companions had erred and forgotten when conveying hadiths. However, after conducting in-depth research on the texts of both opinions, the researcher concludes that the difference between the two groups of scholars is verbal in nature. The first group does not deny the possibility of forgetfulness and errors among the Companions, while the second group does not explicitly determine which individual Companions are considered to lack the quality of ḍabṭ. Both groups agree that errors that occurred among the Companions can still be tolerated and do not damage their overall precision.

Abstract

Drawing on critiques from Islamic Political Economy (IPE) and Islamic International Relations (IIR), this study analyses the political, economic, and geopolitical implications of United States foreign aid to Indonesia through the lens of the Islamic worldview. Using a philosophical approach, the research interprets the spiritual and ethical dimensions of the Islamic worldview through foundational sources such as the Qur'an, Hadith, and classical Islamic scholarship. The findings reveal that US foreign aid has minimal impact on economic growth. Instead, it predominantly promotes Western-style liberalization, democratization, secularism, and strategic geopolitical objectives, particularly as a counterbalance to China's influence. This study highlights the misalignment between secular aid strategies and Islamic principles, advocating for policies grounded in the Islamic worldview. By integrating faith-based principles into the analysis of political economy and international relations, the research offers a comprehensive framework for understanding how Islamic ethics can shape governance, international relations, and economic behaviour. As a library-based exploratory study, the findings emphasize the need for further empirical validation through qualitative and quantitative methodologies. This research provides valuable insights into aligning Islamic ethical frameworks with contemporary political and economic practices.

Abstract

Malay camphor (Dryobalanops aromatica) has played a significant role in the economy, Malay culture, and international trade since ancient times. It has been used in medicine, religious rituals, and diplomatic relations between major empires. Known as al-Kafur in the Quran and Hadith, it was also referred to as camphor by European traders. However, after the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century, Malay Camphor became increasingly marginalized when Chinese Camphor (Cinnamomum camphora, also known as Xiangzhang (樟树)) replaced it due to its lower cost. In 1903, the production of synthetic camphor, based on the chemical formula of Chinese Camphor (C10H16O), was patented as camphor, while the chemical formula of Malay Camphor (C10H18O) was designated as borneol, leading to confusion in scientific studies, Malay scholarship, and Islamic studies. This study examines the differences between Malay Camphor and Chinese Camphor and aims to determine which type is actually referenced in the Quran and Islamic history. A qualitative approach was employed, involving a literature review, analysis of Quranic and Hadith interpretations, and interviews with historians, botanists, and cultural practitioners in Barus. The findings indicate that Malay Camphor has a more fragrant aroma, a cooling effect, refreshing, free from harm, non-toxicity, and high quality. It is also edible and can be used as a flavoring agent—aligning with the characteristics of al-Kafur in Islamic interpretation. However, trade monopolies and terminological errors have obscured its identity in modern history. This study confirms that al-Kafur in Islam refers to Malay Camphor and highlights the importance of correcting terminological errors to ensure that camphor is associated with Dryobalanops aromatica rather than Xiangzhang.

Abstract

The philosophy of Adat Basandi Syara' - Syara' Basandi Kitabullah is the culmination of the interaction, integration, and affiliation of Minangkabau customs that have existed since the ancestors and Islam that emerged later. At the level of implementation, this concept can be used as a pattern to improve the welfare of the people by focusing on the local economy, which is still based on the philosophy of adat. This research aims to explore practical concepts to enhance the role of Tungku Tigo Sajarangan in the sustainability of the local economy based on customary philosophy. This research uses a qualitative and phenomenological approach. The results from this study indicate that the Convergence of Tungku Tigo Sajarangan Based on Indigenous Philosophy indicates three points: Emphasizes the common interest based on the Quran and Hadith, the synergy of the three forces of the Minangkabau leadership system, and the Democratic leadership style reflected in deliberation. Further results found that the Foundation of Local Wisdom in Economic Sustainability in West Sumatra by the local government tries to restrict big retailers' domination, Local wisdom brought by the local tribe (minang) human intelligence, and those conditions create a competitive rivalry.

Abstract

This study examines the significant contributions of the Arab community to the socio-religious and cultural development of Palembang, a historically rich and diverse city in Indonesia. Originating from Hadramaut, Yemen, during the era of the Palembang Darussalam Sultanate in the 17th century, the Arab community played a pivotal role in the Islamization of the region and the enrichment of local identity through cultural and social values. Their integration with the local population resulted in profound acculturation, visible in religious traditions, such as Maulid Nabi and zikr practices, and the implementation of Islamic principles in governance and daily life. This research employs a qualitative methodology with a descriptive approach. It utilizes in-depth interviews with prominent figures and descendants of the Arab community and historical document analysis. The study focuses on historical areas like Kampung Arab Al-Munawwar and Ulu-Ilir, which are central to the Arab community’s legacy in Palembang. The findings highlight the establishment of Islamic educational institutions, such as madrasahs and pesantrens, by prominent Arab figures like Habib Alwi Bahsin. These institutions became pivotal in disseminating religious and general knowledge, fostering intellectual and social empowerment. The study underscores the integration of Islamic values into local culture, evident in acculturated traditions, culinary practices, and community activities. In conclusion, the Arab community’s contributions extend beyond religious propagation, encompassing education, social development, and cultural integration. Their legacy has profoundly shaped Palembang’s identity, reinforcing its status as a vital center of Islamic civilization in the Nusantara.
