Etika Al-Ghazālian dan Titik Temunya dengan Etika Kantian R.F. Bhanu Viktorahadi
FOCUS Vol. 3 No. 1 (2022): Focus
Publisher : Parahyangan Catholic University

With his immense intellectual stature and his encyclopaedic knowledge, al-Ghazâli has influenced Islamic thought and defined its practice for nearly nine centuries. Like many legal experts and philosophers, al-Ghazâli divides the universe into the transient world and the eternal hereafter. This world, or temporary existence, is subject to the will of God. It is not governed by a set of scientific laws, but is maintained, governed and driven by the direct and continual intervention of God (rejection of causality). God is not only the creator of the universe and of its attributes and laws (or the cause of existence). He is also the cause of every event in the world, great and small, past, present and future. As a Sufi, al-Ghazâli does have a theory of ethic as a part of his tasawuf discipline. Some experts come to consider al-Ghazâli as a Sufi figure, some other also goes to classify him as a prominent figure of philosophy. This is understandable actually, because from the books he wrote all indicates his interest on both tasawuf as well as philosophy. By considering his books Maqâshid al-Falâsifah or Tahâfut al-Falâsifah, or through his Mi’yâr al’Ilm, one would consider him as a true philosopher. But one might also comes to conclude him as a real Sufi or a true mystic simply by looking at his master piece works such as Ihyâ al-Ulûm al-Dîn, or Kitab al-Arbâ’in dan al-Munqidz min al-Dhalâl.

Comparison of Islamic and Adventist Christian Eschatology Rika Dilawati
FOCUS Vol. 3 No. 1 (2022): Focus
Publisher : Parahyangan Catholic University

This study aims to discuss the comparison of life after death (exchatology) in Islam and Adventist Christianity. The research method used in this research is qualitative with the process of collecting data through literature review. The results showed that the comparison of eschatology in Islam and Christianity has a very significant difference, this can be seen in the two holy books, namely the Koran and the Bible. Eschatology in Islam is also known as the end of time or the day of judgment. Therefore eschatology is a day that is feared by every Muslim, because eschatology is a day of vengeance, where all deeds in the world will be counted on that day. While eschatology in Adventist Christianity is a day full of hope that Christians always look forward to. They waited for Christ to come a second time to take His people to the place He had prepared. However, eschatology in Islam is also shrouded in hope for salvation where Muslim belief always boils down to how big the scales of good deeds are while in this world. Therefore, this article provides great wisdom for both religions, where as religious people hope for a good place after death must always be fostered by good deeds and invite rewards as provisions later in the Hereafter.

Reexamining the Story of Islam and Nation States in Southeast Asia Dadang Darmawan; Yohanes Slamet Purwadi
FOCUS Vol. 3 No. 1 (2022): Focus
Publisher : Parahyangan Catholic University

This article will try to find out why Islam in Indonesia is able to unite various diverse ethnic groups in a unitary state without significant friction? While in Malaysia Islam gives spirit to Malay ethnicity to become the dominant element in all aspects of national and state life without being dragged into chauvinism? Why is it that Islam which is ethnical with certain ethnicities in the Philippines has become a serious deterrent to nationality in both countries? Three cases that together involved elements of Islam, ethnicity and nationalism but showed different manifestations of reaction. In each case Islam plays a different position and function, as a unifying Indonesia, the spirit of Malaysia and undermining the Philippines.

Rationalism in Harun Nasution’s Epistemology of Islamic Law Zaid Hamdani; Mohammad Taufiq Rahman
FOCUS Vol. 3 No. 1 (2022): Focus
Publisher : Parahyangan Catholic University

The term 'epistemology' is a term directly related to the field of philosophical debate. As one of the branches of philosophy, it studies science in terms of its definition, the establishment of its types, the determination of its sources and channels and the identification of its limits and limitations. Although these epistemological questions are commonly used in the disciplines of philosophy and the sciences, for some scholars they are also relevant and useful in the field of Islamic law. The following brief study will attempt to elaborate on the epistemological theory of Islamic law by analyzing the thoughts of a prominent Islamic scholar, Harun Nasution, an expert in Islamic philosophy and theology.

After independence, efforts to reconstruct the history of ancient Malaysia recorded by colonial scholars have been made. However, there are still poor explanations. Therefore, the following studies are the study of the history of the Malay community in a new interpretation. The methods used in this study are phenomenological. With this method it was found that the process of independence of Malaya in 1957 did not take place in the short run by the British and its elite, but it took a long time and made little sacrifice. It started in the form of awareness by scholars of Malay nationalism itself which unfortunately has been forgotten or closed their role by chroniclers.

Liberal Islamic Thoughts in Indonesia Radea Y. A. Hambali; Leonardus Samosir
FOCUS Vol. 3 No. 1 (2022): Focus
Publisher : Parahyangan Catholic University

The understanding of freedom of thought in Islam which is the soul / spirit of the liberal Islamic movement that grows in the context of Islamic thinking in Indonesia originates from Islamic tradition; although in its development Western modernization has also colored liberal Islamic discourse. Therefore, liberal ideas need not always be understood in the Western context and by using Western barometers. On the other hand, liberal Islam can be understood in the sense of those who are opposed to revivalism that often discusses orthodox themes that are considered established, such as Islamic teachings on politics, democracy, women's rights, religious pluralism, freedom of thought and ideas about progress. By always re-enacting these themes, liberal Islamic groups believe that Islam will be able to play an important role in the contemporary world. Furthermore, the development of liberal Islam in Indonesia cannot be separated from the context of the development of the understanding of the liberalization of Islamic thought in the Islamic world. Included in this case is the treatment that often discredits liberal Islamic groups that occur both in the Muslim world and in Indonesia.
