Abstract

Islam is continuously engaged with diverse traditions, cultures, ethnic groups, races, and civilizations, including the dynamics of modernization, which is marked by technological progress and the swift circulation of information. The purpose of this study is to explore the concepts, challenges, and critical perspectives on tradition and modernity within Islamic thought. This paper employs a literature review method with a descriptive qualitative approach, gathering data and insights from a range of references such as books, scholarly articles, journals, and other relevant sources. The results show that Islam provides a selective response based on the principle of adopting new, beneficial ideas without abandoning good old traditions. Islam encourages the use of technology for da'wah (Islamic outreach), the integration of religious curricula with science, the development of sharia economics as an alternative to capitalism, the filtering of modern ideas, and an active contribution to creating a balanced global civilization.

Abstract

This study examines the evolution of da’wah in Gombe State, Nigeria, a region characterized by ethnic diversity and religious pluralism where Islam, Christianity, and indigenous beliefs coexist. It explores the challenges and opportunities of propagating Islamic teachings within this multicultural setting. Using a descriptive-qualitative approach and literature review, the research analyzes historical, sociological, and thematic perspectives to understand how da’wah strategies have adapted from the pre-colonial period to the digital age. Findings show that while da’wah has historically relied on cultural adaptation and community engagement, modern challenges such as religious tension, extremist narratives, and globalization require innovative approaches. Inclusive methods—such as interfaith dialogue, intercultural communication, and integration of local traditions—have proven effective in promoting tolerance and peaceful coexistence. Digital platforms, particularly social media, offer significant opportunities to reach younger audiences, though they also pose risks of misinformation and radicalization. The study highlights the role of Islamic organizations, notably Jama’atu Nasril Islam, in balancing religious propagation with social services, education, and interfaith initiatives. It concludes that effective da’wah in pluralistic societies should emphasize wisdom (hikmah), dialogue (mujadalah), and cultural sensitivity, while leveraging technology and promoting universal values such as justice, compassion, and solidarity. Recommendations include training da’wah practitioners in digital literacy and intercultural skills, empowering women and youth in da’wah activities, and strengthening collaboration with government and non-Muslim stakeholders. Ultimately, the study underscores that da’wah must function not only as religious propagation but also as a catalyst for harmony, tolerance, and social justice in diverse societies.

Abstract

This study examines the Qur’anic symbolism of light through the semiotic framework of Charles S. Peirce. In the Qur’an, light (nūr) is frequently employed as a symbol that embodies divine guidance, spiritual enlightenment, and the manifestation of Allah’s presence. Peirce’s semiotic theory, with its triadic model, representamen (the sign), object (the referent), and interpretant (the meaning constructed by the observer), is applied to uncover the layered meanings of light in selected Qur’anic verses. This research analyzes and interprets verses that explicitly mention light in order to reveal both the apparent and hidden dimensions of its symbolism and its role in shaping the Qur’an’s overall message. Focusing particularly on QS. An-Nur: 35 (light as divine guidance), QS. Al-Baqarah: 257 (light as liberation from darkness), and QS. Al-Hadid: 12–13 (light as a reward in the hereafter), the study demonstrates how the Qur’an employs this symbol to communicate theological, spiritual, and ethical values. The findings aim to contribute to Qur’anic studies by enriching the understanding of symbolism in sacred texts and by illustrating the applicability of Peirce’s semiotic theory to the interpretation of religious discourse.

Abstract

The practice of witchcraft in society has existed for thousands of years and has been passed down through generations. The best approach to preventing acts of witchcraft is through legislation. Brunei and Malaysia are among the countries that codify witchcraft as a crime under Sharia Law through the Brunei Penal Code Order 2013, the Kelantan Syariah Penal Code Enactment (I) 2019 and the Terengganu Syariah Criminal Offenses (Takzir) (Amendment) Enactment 2022. The codified witchcraft laws in both countries represent a contemporary ijtihad by leaders and legal experts who recognize the necessity of legislating such provisions. However, the concept of punishment for practitioners of witchcraft in these countries does not fully align with Islamic legal principles. This raises the question do the codified witchcraft laws in Brunei and Malaysia align with Maqasid al-Shariah? Therefore, the objective of this study is to analyze the witchcraft laws in Brunei and Malaysia from the perspective of Maqasid al- Shariah. This study adopts a qualitative approach, utilizing document and content analysis as its data collection methods. The findings reveal that the witchcraft laws in Brunei and Malaysia align with Maqasid al-Shariah as they fulfill the aspects of preserving religion, life, intellect, wealth and lineage.

Abstract

This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection methods of interviews, documentation, and literature review to analyze the management of Islamic boarding school cooperatives based on social and religious values. The results show that the implementation of management functions such as planning, organizing, mobilizing, monitoring, and evaluation in cooperatives faces significant challenges related to human resources and financial transparency. This cooperative operates a retail outlet, laundry services, and sharia savings and loans that empower students and alumni in a sustainable manner. Research recommendations include strengthening management capabilities, improving administrative systems, and increasing member participation to enhance the professionalism and sustainability of Islamic boarding school cooperatives.

Abstract

The relationship between religion and science in Islamic education has developed as a response to the longstanding dichotomy between religious knowledge and general (secular) sciences, a division that has shaped educational structures and societal mindsets and produced an enduring epistemological gap. This study aims to analyze and categorize the dominant paradigms governing the relationship between religion and science and to examine their implications for Islamic Religious Education (PAI). Using a qualitative literature review, the study analyzes books and peer-reviewed journals addressing religion–science relations through the analytical framework of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, encompassing data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings identify four principal paradigms in religion–science relations: conflict, independence, dialogue, and integration. Among these, the integrative paradigm is regarded as the most comprehensive, as it seeks to reconcile empirical inquiry with transcendental values while respecting their distinct epistemological foundations. Within PAI learning, this paradigm is reflected in curriculum design, interdisciplinary pedagogical approaches, and the incorporation of spiritual and ethical values into science-related instruction. The novelty of this study lies in its systematic synthesis of philosophical paradigms of religion–science relations with their pedagogical application in the Indonesian Islamic higher education context, particularly within UIN, IAIN, and STAIN. The study concludes that relating religion and science is not merely an academic project but also a cultural and spiritual process that supports a holistic understanding of reality and promotes Islamic education that remains responsive to contemporary challenges.

Abstract

This article presents a semantic analysis of two Qur’anic concepts related to psychological resilience—sakinah and thuma’ninah—to construct a Qur’an-based model for strengthening mental health. Employing Toshihiko Izutsu’s semantic framework, including etymological, syntagmatic, and paradigmatic analysis, the study demonstrates that these concepts, often treated synonymously in translation, represent distinct psychological states. Sakinah refers to a situational and temporary tranquility bestowed as divine intervention (anzala), functioning as acute psychological stabilization during crises. In contrast, thuma’ninah denotes a stable and enduring tranquility rooted in internal spiritual maturity, developed through sustained dhikr, faith, and mujahadah, and reflected in the formation of the nafs mutma’innah. Based on these findings, the study proposes a three-phase Qur’anic resilience model: adversity, stabilization through sakinah, and transformation through thuma’ninah, which enhances long-term resilience capacity. This model integrates psychological, social, and spiritual dimensions through cognitive reframing, emotional regulation, meaning-making, and post-traumatic spiritual growth within an Islamic worldview. The findings contribute to Islamic psychology and thematic Qur’anic interpretation (tafsir maudhu‘i), offering a theoretical foundation for culturally and spiritually integrated Muslim mental health interventions.

Abstract

This study analyzes the pesantren-based da'wah management strategy at the Miftahul Ulum Islamic Boarding School in Banyuputih Kidul Lumajang, emphasizing the integration of a participatory approach in da'wah management practices. The study uses a descriptive qualitative approach through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings show that pesantren da'wah management is carried out through four main functions, namely planning, organizing, implementing, and supervising. Da'wah planning is carried out in a participatory and contextual manner by involving caregivers, ustaz, administrators, and santri, so that the da'wah program is responsive to the internal needs of the pesantren and the surrounding community. Organization is collective and flexible, da'wah implementation is carried out through internal and external da'wah with a persuasive-educational approach, while supervision is carried out continuously even though it has not been formalized administratively. The novelty of this research lies in the formulation of a community-based da'wah management model for Islamic boarding schools that expands the function of da'wah from internal guidance to strengthening social da'wah in the community. Theoretically, these findings enrich the study of da'wah management with a participatory perspective based on Islamic boarding schools, while practically providing an adaptive and applicable model for managing da'wah in Islamic boarding schools as centers for community religious empowerment.

Abstract

This article explores the fundamental foundations of knowledge by analyzing and comparing Irfani and Western epistemological paradigms. Using a qualitative library research method with a descriptive-analytical approach, this study examines how these two frameworks diverge and intersect. The findings reveal a primary distinction in the sources of knowledge: while the Western tradition encompassing Rationalism, Empiricism, and Criticism relies on reason, logic, and sensory perception, Irfani epistemology (Sufism) is rooted in intuition or direct spiritual experience (zhauqi). This study offers a novel perspective by highlighting that, despite the secularist-materialist bias often found in Western thought, both paradigms serve as essential conceptual frameworks for truth-seeking. The academic novelty of this research lies in its synthesis of “present knowledge” (‘Ilm al-Laduny) and “acquired knowledge,” demonstrating how Irfani thought utilizes reason to interpret spiritual phenomena, much like the collaborative effort between ratio and experience found in Criticism. Ultimately, the comparison underscores a complementary potential between Irfani’s inner spiritual illumination and the Western emphasis on empirical verification.
