Abstract

This study investigates the perceptions of tolerance held by students at UIN Bandung and Parahyangan Catholic University (UNPAR), two religiously affiliated postsecondary educational establishments in Bandung. The data for this research was gathered through document reviews and interviews using a qualitative methodology. Fifty students from UIN Bandung and fifty from UNPAR Bandung were interviewed. This study discovers that students' perceptions of their religious texts—the Bible and the Qur'an—have an impact on how tolerant they are Socially, it is discovered that Indonesians' conception of tolerance has a national dimension based on the national ideology. Religious and social concepts provide these kids with the foundation for tolerance in a variety of ways. Students at UIN Bandung continue to exhibit tolerance, but only within the framework of their religion—Islam. On the other hand, tolerance is practiced in both the social and individual environments at UNPAR, a campus that is more diverse and cosmopolitan. Collaboration strengthens the two student groups' tolerant attitudes. This collaboration later initiated the birth of the Halaqah Damai (Circle of Peace) as a forum for the two student groups to have dialogue and understand the essence of religious tolerance to be disseminated in their respective environments.

Abstract

Religious absolutism is one of the epistemological roots behind various acts of religious intolerance that threaten the order of life in a plural, dynamic, tolerant and inclusive democratic society. This research is a study of philosophical literature that explores the ideas of William James's pragmatic theory of truth and finds its relevance to religious education in order to anticipate symptoms of religious absolutism. James challenged the absolutism of truth that had been maintained for centuries in the Western philosophical tradition. Truth does not lie in ideas or notions, but rather in the process or event of verification and validation of those ideas or notions in experience. He offers a pragmatic concept of truth that takes into account the practical consequences of ideas in experience. For him, truth should be dynamic, open, continuously growing and plural. Inspired by James' ideas, the author conveys the importance of religious truth and religious education interpreted in a more pragmatic framework. Religious truth is not only built from religious dogma or doctrine but is a reflective and dialogical process through the experience of faith, which is formed in relation to other truths. In a contemporary pluralistic society, religious education cannot be reduced to simply teaching religious doctrine or dogma. Religious education needs to be carried out within a pragmatic framework as a form of religious moderation education that pays attention to efforts to develop critical-reflective abilities to grow faith in a sustainable manner, creatively interpreting human experience, as well as forming human ethical character to maintain a harmonious life together.

Abstract

The existence of the philosophical interpretation (tafsir falsafi) has sparked serious debates among scholars, who consider it too radical and potentially harmful to the community due to its freedom in utilizing reason. However, through this research, we explore that the diversity in interpreting the Quran is actually a result of human thought, especially in the realm of philosophy, as the quest for meaning in the Quran fundamentally involves philosophical thinking. The objective of this research is to refute views that label philosophical interpretation as a radical and dangerous approach merely because it is associated with the philosophy of that time, especially that which originated from historically non-Islamic Greek philosophy. The research methodology employed is a literature study (library research), involving the collection and screening of data from various sources to be presented systematically. With this argumentation, we aim to prove that philosophical interpretation significantly contributes to enriching the understanding of the Quran. The philosophy that dominates in this interpretation is not something deviant or perilous in interpreting the verses of the Quran but rather a reflection of philosophical thought applied to the object of justification, namely the Quran itself, and not the other way around. The diversity in philosophical approaches contributes significantly to the development of philosophical thought related to the Quran.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the use of social media in Islamic preaching in the digital age and the challenges faced in spreading religious messages through digital platforms. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this research relies on a literature review to collect secondary data related to the use of media in preaching. The findings indicate that social media platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok have opened significant opportunities for preaching to reach a global audience effectively and creatively. However, the study also identifies challenges related to message distortion, lack of content credibility, and the dissemination of inaccurate information. This research proposes strategic guidelines to maximize the potential of social media in spreading Islamic values while mitigating possible risks. In conclusion, social media holds great potential for preaching, but it requires a cautious and responsible approach to ensure that religious messages remain accurate and beneficial. It is recommended that preachers utilize social media creatively while maintaining the essence and integrity of religious teachings.

Abstract

Confucianism is a school of thought that was born in China in the sixth century BC, founded by Confucius. This teaching emphasizes moral virtue, social relationships, and the connection between man and Heaven. The aim of this article is to explore the evolution of Confucianism from its early teachings to its more complex form of Neo-Confucianism, as well as its relevance in the modern context in China and East Asia. The methods used in this article involve a historical and philosophical approach through textual analysis of the teachings of Dao and Confucius, including the works of Zhu Xi, as well as a comparative study of its influence on culture, society, and politics in East Asia. The results of the analysis show that although Confucianism suffered a decline during the period of division after the fall of the Han Dynasty, its rise through Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty era not only integrated metaphysical and spiritual elements but also strengthened education and self-development as the foundation of morality. In addition, the article reveals how Daoism and Confucianism have successfully adapted to modern challenges, such as interaction with Western thought and far-reaching social changes so that it remains relevant in shaping contemporary culture and ethics in East Asia.

Abstract

Indonesia is ranked 37th in terms of the highest terrorism cases globally. A series of successive events since the 2000s. Of course, it causes a lot of losses, not only material but also the psychological and mental health of people who are worried about the safety of their lives. This study aims to find out how to counteract radicalism and terrorism in Indonesia. The method used in this research is library research and analyzed using qualitative analysis techniques. The results of this study indicate that the diversity of religions makes people's anxiety about the existence of terrorism even more complex. Islam, in particular, is increasingly cornered and has a negative view. However, even so, individuals who have an obligation to protect this country synergize in preventing the growth of radicalism on a global scale. Assisted by the government, which is expected to ensure the realization of a just, prosperous, and prosperous society. The presence of religious moderation is a mediator between diversity, where followers of religions can take a middle way amidst the diversity of interpretations of tolerance but still adhere to the essence of their religious teachings.

Abstract

This research aims to find out the symbols of slavery in the Qur'an, the semiotic perspective of Roland Barthes and its relation to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This study uses qualitative descriptive methods and approaches with the analysis of Roland Barthes' semiotic theory that a symbol is a sign that is surrounded by other signs so that it becomes clearer. There are two stages: the first stage is called the linguistic system, and the second stage is called the mythical system. Myth, in Barthes' view, is assumed to be a system of markers built on three things signifier, signified and sign. The results of the study show that the symbol of Abdun and Amah as human beings who have rights and obligations, the symbol of Raqabah is a valuable item that must be paid, in the sense that it must be liberated or liberated and the symbol of Ma Malakat Ayman as a halal biological channel, a companion who is allowed to marry, and a human being who has rights. As for the relationship with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the two have the same spirit to abolish and eliminate slavery on the face of the earth.

Abstract

This article presents a literature review of the book by Mary Pat Fisher and Robin Rinehart that discusses the concept of Living Religion and its application in everyday life, with a focus on Surah Al-Fatihah in the Qur'an. Surah Al-Fatihah, as a fundamental part of Islamic teachings, has a very deep and broad meaning, not only as a prayer in ritual worship but also as a moral and spiritual guideline in human interaction with God and others. This article explores how the values contained in Surah Al-Fatihah can be grounded in everyday life as part of a living religious practice. By applying the principles of Surah Al-Fatihah in everyday life, Muslims can face life's challenges more wisely and meaningfully. This discussion also raises the relevance of the concept of Living Religion in the modern pluralistic and dynamic world, where religious teachings need to be adapted to remain relevant and provide solutions to social and personal life problems. This article is expected to provide insight into the development of a more contextual and applicable understanding of religion, as well as encourage the application of religious values in everyday life that is more meaningful. Contribution: The discussion extends to the concept of Living Religion within a pluralistic and dynamic world, addressing the necessity for religious teachings to evolve and remain applicable to contemporary social issues. This perspective encourages interfaith dialogue and understanding in increasingly diverse societies.

Abstract

Persis (Persatuan Islam –Islamic Union) is one of the Islamic organizations in Indonesia that has made a significant contribution to the development of education since it was founded in 1923. This article aims to analyze the role of Persis in building an education system based on Islamic values, starting from the colonial era and the independence to the current modern era. Using a historical and qualitative-descriptive approach, this research examines the educational strategies, challenges and innovations carried out by Persis through madrasas, Islamic boarding schools and formal educational institutions. The findings show that Persis is consistent in fighting for education based on pure Islamic beliefs, both through curriculum formation, teacher training and the development of educational institutions. In the reform and digital era, Persis continues to adapt to technology and global needs to ensure the relevance of Islamic education in producing a generation with noble character and high competence. This research confirms that the role of Persis education does not only cover the Islamic realm but also contributes to Indonesia's national development. Contribution: By promoting character education through various community initiatives, including social media outreach, Persis demonstrates its commitment to fostering a generation that embodies noble values while being equipped for modern societal roles.
