Abstract

The sun's shadow and addressing the Qibla, measured by several available methods, can be used to determine the times of prayer for Muslims who are on Earth's surface. The question of how to identify the prayer times and the direction of the Qibla emerges when a Muslim is in space. The aim of this paper is to identify the Qibla direction and prayer times in outer space. This qualitative article is based on a literature study. According to some of the findings of the scholars' ijtihād, Muslim astronauts could fly to Cape Canaveral depending on where they last left the earth, or they could follow the Greenwich Time or the Mecca prayer timetable. There are four alternatives for Qibla direction according to A Guideline for Performing Prayer at the International Space Station (ISS): addressing the earth, facing the projection of the Kaaba in the sky, approaching the earth, or facing everywhere.

Abstract

A solar eclipse is an unusual natural occurrence. Muslims used the phenomenon of a solar eclipse as the season for prayer, which was only carried out during a solar eclipse from early in the phenomenon until the end. Although there is no statistically significant difference in estimating a solar eclipse, as the seasons change, a solar eclipse becomes increasingly important. Lots of alternatives can be used as a reference in the determination of a solar eclipse. Among the alternatives commonly used is the calculation of spherical astronomy. Despite its complexity, many people still use it as the foundation for calculations based on solar eclipse Pythagoras as well as the determination of the celestial coordinate system.

Abstract

A calendar is an organizing system for calculating time over a certain period. Some calendar systems refer to an astronomical cycle, following a fixed rule. The main problem in this study is how the method and implementation of determining the beginning of the lunar month in the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia and the Fazilet Calendar, the purpose of this study is to add to the treasury of knowledge about the Fazilet Calendar calendar method originating from the Ottoman Empire so that library research methods are used to describe various sources that are there is. The results showed that there was a difference of three to four months each year in entering the first month using the old and new MABIMS criteria and the Fazilet Calendar criteria. Differences in the beginning of the lunar month also occur because of the location of the hilal observation markaz, the Fazilet Calendar with the Ittihadul Mathali concept (imposing a global matla) while the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia with the wilayatul hukmi matlak concept.

Abstract

Basically a calendar or calendar is the accumulation and distribution of time with certain time units based on certain events that are used by people around the world to be used as a benchmark and guide or marker of time in their life journey. The Bugis calendar is a calendar that belongs to the Bugis tribe in South Sulawesi and is a cultural heritage that has been passed down from generation to generation and is also a unique calendar because this calendar existed before Islam entered the South Sulawesi region. The purpose of this study is to add to and expand the kazana on the study of astronomy, especially the Bugis people of South Sulawesi and it is hoped that it will also be able to become a reference for information regarding the Lontara Bugis calendar so that this study uses a literature research method that describes systematically, normatively and accurately the objects studied. become the main problem. Currently, the use of the Lontara Bugis calendar has adopted the Hijri calendar, but does not necessarily leave the culture or beliefs of our ancestors regarding the Lontara Bugis calendar.

Abstract

The Bugis Makassar Tribe Society is one of the tribes in Indonesia that has historical traces in the calendar system. The method of calculating people's time in ancient times was contained in the Ku Tika manuscript of the Bone Tribe which until now is no longer used and is only used as a historical source. Many of today's generations do not know and are no longer able to be read by various backgrounds in society in general. This is because the language used in the text is not the same as today's language, such as the Lontara Bugis language. Therefore, a study is needed regarding the contents of the manuscript so that it can be known by all audiences. This research is included in library research, namely research by collecting data and information from books, journals, and other document records. Based on the results of the research, it can be seen that the Ku Tika manuscript of the Bone tribe explains the meaning of hours, days and months. The time calculation method used is called Pakkita Esso which means the system of five times in one day.

Abstract

The Tolaki people continue to base their way of life on traditions like the Tolaki calendar for identifying good and bad days. The Tolaki tribe employs a tool that is often employed as a weather forecast or as a guide for the community to carry out certain actions to ascertain this. The formulation of the issue is brought up by the author, who asks questions like: How does the Tolaki calendar system work?, How are the good and bad days for the Tolaki people determined?, and How is astronomical research related to the Tolaki calendar system?. The Tolaki Culture Book, which is processed with journals linked to the Tolaki Tribal Calendar System, is used in this research technique, which is a library method. It is studied descriptively and presented qualitatively. These are the study's findings: The moon's position in the night sky is used as the basis for the Tolaki calendar. The meanings of the names of the days in the month are used by the Tolaki people to identify good and bad days, and they use Naga Hari, Kutika, and Bilangari to ascertain the precise day and hour. The Tolaki calendar is identical to the Hijri calendar in astronomy since it uses a lunar calendar that keeps track of the moon's orbit. The Tolaki community uses the concept of good days and bad days as a guide for carrying out activities, but it cannot be utilized as a model for how to do Islamic devotion.

Abstract

Facing the Qiblah as one of the legal requirements in carrying out the prayer requires us to determine where the Ka'bar building is located. Such things are not an obstacle for those who live around Mecca. In Indonesia, which is far from the physical building of the Ka’bah, the Qibla direction has often been a problem in society from time to time. Syekh Arsyad al-Banjari in his book Mas'ālatul Qibla fī Batawi provides a simple concept of how to face the Qibla for people who are far from the Kaaba, he also plays a role in straightening the Qibla direction of mosques in Betawi. This research uses a type of library research (Library Research). The data analysis process in this study uses descriptive analysis. Based on the research conducted by the author on the book, according to Sheikh Arsyad al-Banjari the obligation to face the Qibla with the ainul kaaba only applies to people who are in Mecca, so that areas outside Mecca may use a strong zhan. Furthermore, he was also of the opinion that it was advisable to change the Qibla direction of the mosque which was established by the wali if proven wrong. He practiced this by changing several mosques in Indonesia.

Abstract

Nowadays, around the world, there are numerous Qibla direction applications available on various websites and digital content providers. One of these is the Miqat application: Prayer Times, Qiblah, and Hilal Visibility, an augmented reality-based Android app for determining the direction of the Qibla. Samer Joudi, a geospatial technology specialist from the United Arab Emirates, released the Miqat app in 2015. As of November 20, 2022, more than 5,000,000 (five million) Android users had downloaded the Miqat app, giving it a rating of 4.6 out of 5. A 3D Qibla feature in the Miqat application uses augmented reality technology on the display to point users in the direction of the Kaaba. actual life.  The results of this study are that the calculation method used by the Miqat application is the Vincenty formula, which is quite accurate (7 minutes difference from the calculation of the Istiwa'aini Qibla direction) because the Vincenty formula has high accuracy in determining the Qibla direction based on the ellipsoid shape of the earth. Then, determining the Qibla direction using the 3D Qibla feature with augmented reality technology is categorized as less accurate according to Slamet Hambali's level of accuracy, but still within tolerance limits according to Thomas Djamaluddin's level of accuracy. The accuracy of the Qibla direction of the Miqat application differs from 0o to 1o from the Qibla direction measured by Istiwa'aini.

Abstract

Accuracy in facing the Qibla is an essential part of performing prayers. This vital value is evident when many mosques are built in public places. This article is qualitative with field data sources, namely coordinate points at the Jemursari Islamic Hospital mosque, Surabaya Islamic Hospital, and Al-Irsyad Hospital Surabaya. Once collected, the data was analyzed using three methods for calculating Qibla direction, namely Spherical Trigonometry, Jean Meeus, and Google Qibla Finder. This article found that the three methods obtained the same results at the Jemursari Islamic Hospital at 294°3'5", at the Surabaya Islamic Hospital at 294° 3'6", and at the Al-Irsyad Surabaya Hospital at 294°3'5 ". However, there is a difference between calculations and field measurements of 2°–7°, including within the Qibla deviation tolerance. It can be concluded that these three methods can accurately determine the Qibla direction in various locations. However, re-checking is required if the measurements exceed the tolerance limits.

Abstract

The prayer schedule is usually applied to one area, such as Semarang City, considering the existing area, its area, and its height. The value of iḥtiyāṭ certainly has a role in implementing prayer times to accommodate all parts of one area as well as a safety measure against miscalculations; the method is carried out by taking into account prayer times in the eastern and the westernmost regions, as well as lowland and highland areas, then compared to the reference prayer time, in this case, the Great Mosque of Central Java. For the city of Semarang, with an east-west area of 24.2 km and an altitude of 0-405 meters above sea level, it is safe to use an iḥtiyāṭ of 2 minutes. However, considering the highland areas, it is necessary to use an iḥtiyāṭ value of 3 minutes for maghrib and evening prayer times.
