Abstract

This study analyzes how the 2023 fatwa issued by the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) on boycotting Israeli-affiliated products is reframed by digital religious authorities on YouTube, using Fairclough's three-level model of Critical Discourse Analysis. Data include the fatwa text, video narrations by Buya Yahya, Guru Gembul, and audience comments on their channels. At the micro level, MUI's cautious legal language is later sharpened into explicit moral condemnation of Israel, while Buya Yahya emphasizes conscience-based affective language and Guru Gembul adopts a rational-strategic register questioning the boycott's effectiveness. At the meso level, these differences stem from contrasting institutional positions: pesantren-based authority versus non-institutional commentary. At the macro level, this produces divergent audiences, homogeneous and affirmative for Buya Yahya, polarized and critical for Guru Gembul. The study shows how a single fatwa fractures into competing digital religious publics, with authority increasingly shaped by rhetorical strategy rather than credentials alone.

Abstract

The growing interest in maqāṣidī exegesis has encouraged scholars to explore the universal objectives that constitute the fundamental orientation of the Qur’anic message. In this context, Rashid Riḍā occupies a significant position as a Muslim reformist scholar who systematically formulated the concept of maqāṣid al-Qur’an in Al-Waḥy al-Muḥammadī and implemented it in Tafsīr al-Manār. However, the relationship between his conceptual formulation of maqāṣid al-Qur’an and its application in Qur’anic interpretation has received limited scholarly attention. This article aims to analyze Rashid Riḍā’s construction of maqāṣid al-Qur’an and examine its implementation in Tafsīr al-Manār. This study employs a qualitative library research approach using descriptive-analytical methods. The primary sources consist of Al-Waḥy al-Muḥammadī and Tafsīr al-Manār, which are analyzed through the framework of maqāṣidī exegesis. The findings reveal that Rashid Riḍā formulated maqāṣid al-Qur’an into ten principal objectives encompassing faith, prophethood, character formation, socio-political unity, legal order, governance, economic justice, international relations, women’s rights, and the gradual abolition of slavery. These objectives function not merely as a classification of the Qur’an’s overarching purposes but also as an epistemological framework underpinning his interpretive method. An examination of selected passages in Tafsīr al-Manār demonstrates a consistent relationship between Riḍā’s theoretical formulation and his exegetical practice, reflected in his emphasis on justice, public welfare (maṣlaḥah), education, social reform, and communal solidarity. The study argues that Rashid Riḍā occupies an important place in the development of modern maqāṣidī exegesis through his integration of the Qur’an’s universal objectives with the reformist needs of Muslim society.

Abstract

This article examines the conditions for moving from fine-tuning evidence to rational acceptance of theism in public justification. It uses argumentative analysis of selected literature, Bayesian reconstruction, and evaluation of objections and replies. Its principal target is the confirmatory core restated by Donahue, rather than a presumed demand for universal agreement by all fine-tuning advocates. The analysis shows that a likelihood advantage increases relative odds, whereas accepting theism requires additional justification concerning priors, competing hypotheses, and acceptance rules. Assessments of divine purposes and observer selection identify where these additional commitments enter. The article proposes accessibility, defensibility, and robustness criteria proportionate to the conclusion claimed. It concludes that the confirmatory core alone does not establish obligatory acceptance of theism, while allowing substantial evidential support. Its contribution is a map of justificatory burdens for evaluating cosmological arguments in religious epistemology without treating disagreement as evidence of failure.

Abstract

Indonesia’s national resilience faces various internal and external challenges related to religious, social, and national issues. This study aims to analyze the role of religious studies in strengthening Indonesia's national resilience. The method used is library research with a descriptive-analytical approach. The results of the study show that religious studies contribute to national resilience through three main functions, namely the formation of morality, the strengthening of national identity, and the development of social integration. Religious studies also play a role in responding to internal challenges in the form of intolerance, radicalism, religious politicization, and erosion of moral values, as well as external challenges in the form of global religious conflicts, the spread of transnational ideologies, global cultural currents, and international geopolitical dynamics. These findings confirm that religious studies not only function as an academic study, but also as a strategic instrument in strengthening social cohesion, developing religious moderation, and increasing national resilience in the midst of a pluralistic Indonesian society.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the interpretation that has a “political” nuance in Tafsir al-Huda by Bakri Syahid. Although the interpreted verses are not political verses, sometimes Bakri brings the explainer across the political horizon. This research uses a source of literature data, namely Tafsir al-Huda. The data obtained is described and analyzed using interpretative analysis, through the identification of themes relevant to development politics; interpreting Bakri’s interpretation; associating meaning with context; and giving theoretical meaning as a conclusion. The results of the study show that in surah al-An’am: 138, al-A’raf: 201, al-Ra’d: 20, al-Qasas: 51 and al-Thur: 6, Bakri interprets it by associating New Order Government programs, such as national development and Five-Year Development (Pelita). This finding makes his interpretation work not only become a religious book, but also accommodate political discourse with the existence of “documents” for national development planning. This research contributes to the study of al-Qur’an and Tafsir by revealing that political patterns in interpretation are not always applied to political verses. However, political patterns can appear in the interpretation of verses that do not explicitly talk about politics.

Abstract

The development of digital technology has brought significant changes in the way people access and study Islamic teachings. One of the government’s strategic efforts in responding to this transformation is the Qur’an Application developed by the Ministry of Religious Affairs (Kemenag) of the Republic of Indonesia. This application serves as an official digital platform that provides Qur’anic translations, tafsir (exegesis), audio recitations, and other supporting features that are widely accessible to the public. This study is based on the need for an authoritative, easily accessible, and contemporary medium for learning the Qur’an, particularly for the digital generation. The selection of this topic aims to examine the role of the Kemenag Qur’an Application in efforts to popularize and contextualize Islam in the digital era, making Islamic teachings more approachable, relevant, and understandable for modern society without compromising their original values. This research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, using literature review, analysis of application features, and examination of Kemenag policies related to the digitalization of religious services. The findings indicate that the Kemenag Qur’an Application contributes positively to expanding access to the Qur’an, enhancing Islamic literacy, and serving as an effective medium for digital da‘wah. In conclusion, the utilization of digital technology through the Kemenag Qur’an Application represents an important step in promoting Islam in a moderate, inclusive, and adaptive manner in the digital era.
“Yang Tak Terucap” di Balik Dua Kitab Ṣaḥīḥ: Dialektika Otoritas Kanonik Kitab Hadis di Abad 5 H Hilmy Firdausy

Abstract

This article examines the historical formation of hadith canon authority by comparing Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī and Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Khuzaymah, with particular attention to narrations concerning ṭahārah. It asks why hadith collections with broadly comparable standards of transmission came to occupy unequal positions in the hierarchy of Sunni hadith literature. Using a comparative approach, the study analyzes patterns of transmission, the relationships between narrations, and differences in the selection and organization of hadith. The findings indicate that, within the scope of the selected material, the two collections demonstrate broadly comparable standards of hadith transmission, although differences remain at the level of technical methodology and textual arrangement. This finding raises questions about explanations of canon formation that rely exclusively on textual criticism and scholarly consensus. The article argues that hadith canonization should also be investigated as a historical process shaped by the circulation, reception, legitimation, and institutionalization of scholarly works. Rather than treating Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Khuzaymah as definitive evidence of deliberate political exclusion, the study positions it as a critical case for examining how certain works acquired canonical authority while others remained at the margins. It concludes that the history of the hadith canon involves not only judgments about authenticity but also the historical processes through which particular judgments and collections came to be authoritative.
