Abstract

This article explains the controversial Ngasa ritual. The Ngasa ritual was originally an expression of gratitude to Batara Windu Buana, who is believed to be the creator of the universe who has provided abundant sustenance, so this ritual became controversial. This article aims to map the Jalawastu community and reveal the meaning behind the symbols of their life. Emic perception is the basis for exploring data and analyzing it using a semiotic paradigm. This researcher uses an ideational ethnographic approach. With this approach, it is hoped that many facts can be presented satisfactorily. The findings of this research indicate that there is a pattern of religious and cultural relations, namely the accumulative Islamic style adopted by the Jalawastu people in the Ngasanya tradition. The Jalawastu people, through the Ngasa ritual, formulate religious traditions between Islam according to their views and local traditions. On Tuesday Kliwon Mangsa Kasanga, they were completely.

Abstract

Religion is present on earth to function as a medium to build harmony in life. On the other hand, life in this world is filled with people of different tribes, cultures, ethnicities, religions themselves, and the like. Thus, humanity needs an understanding and application of pluralism for such harmonization. This literature study article aims to reveal the urgency of pluralism according to six official religions in Indonesia. Data analysis uses content analysis by sorting data, classifying it, and analyzing it. The important findings of this study are as follows: First, the manifestation of pluralism is substantially in the form of an attitude of interconnection, which recognizes, appreciates, respects, maintains, and even develops or enriches plural conditions. Pluralism is very important to be used as a medium for building a harmonious life full of peace, harmony, and prosperity in a life of diverse cultures, tribes, nations, religions, ethnicities, and the like. Second, pluralism, in the view of the six official religions in Indonesia, can be used as a medium to build a harmonious life full of harmony and peace. However, local religions other than the six official religions are also very important to be used as a medium to build the intended harmonization. This is because all religions, both official religions and local religions, still have the principle to respect, honor, and maintain the existing diversity.

Abstract

The existence of religion on Earth has evolved into a means of socially and spiritually regulating norms and achieving harmony in life. Aside from that, humanity comes with racial, ethnic, linguistic, and religious diversity. Human thoughts and feelings evolve to build ethical interactions and empathy with other humans due to these differences. This article aims to demonstrate how Emmanuel Levinas' ethical theory entwines ties between Muslims and non-Muslims to establish nonviolent life training and a culture of peace at Peace Place Pati. For Levinas, ethics is about firsthand experience rather than right and wrong. This article presents field research using a phenomenological approach and a qualitative methodology. According to the study's findings, Muslims are aware of the need to put aside prejudice and listen to non-Muslim groups to build peaceful relationships based on understanding and the provision of a safe place. The significance of diversity and equality awareness in creating a welcoming and peaceful community where everyone is valued and given a place. This research aids in understanding the dynamics of interreligious relations in a particular environment.

Abstract

This article attempts to show Mulla Sadra’s model of realism by tracing it through his philosophical principles, especially the principle of Ittihad 'Aqil wa Ma'qul (subject-object unity). Furthermore, the study of the Sadra realism model, which is based on the principle of Ittihad 'Aqil wa Ma'qul, is presented to respond to fundamental epistemic-ontological issues, namely the relationship between the subject’s consciousness and external objects, in order to strengthen belief in the nature and existence of external reality, which is independent of contamination of the subject's mental decisions (mind-independent reality). How does the subject's consciousness relate to external objects? This problem is still an anxiety and has not been resolved by modern philosophers who focus on the discourse of perception, giving rise to various schools of realism, which are represented by two major schools: direct realism and indirect realism. By overcoming these epistemic problems, ultimately, this effort leads to the confirmation of Mulla Sadra's more original and comprehensive model of realism. This paper is attempted using a critical-analytical method, namely analyzing Mulla Sadra's philosophical ideas on the Ittihad 'Aqil wa Ma'qul principles and the views of modern realism by focusing on the issue of perception. The conclusions drawn from the results of the analysis of the Ittihad 'Aqil wa Ma'qul were used as a basis for responding to modern realism as well as an affirmation of Mulla Sadra's style of realism.

Abstract

This article discusses the fiqh learning model of traditional pesantren which according to Soekarno is a very old-fashioned and does not follow the spirit of the times, tends to be shackling, dichotomous, and has not placed religion and science in a balanced position. As a result of the fiqh taught in traditional dichotomous pesantren, santri are less able to adapt to change. The reason is because they learn fiqh that tends to: one, limit it to matters relating to worship to God and how to build relationships with fellow humans only, while the outside of this is not a priority; two, not built on scientific reasoning; three, perspectives that are mostly rigid (black and white); and four, teaching patterns that tend to be indoctrination and anti-criticism. This article is important to reveal Soekarno's criticism of the fiqh model in traditional pesantren, which still exists today. This type of study is a literature study whose data is obtained from literature studies. This study also can be classified in the category of historical-factual studies, while in terms of its approach, this study is qualitative, while the method is descriptive-interpretative with content, language, and concept analysis models, especially to discuss what Soekarno criticised in relation to the fiqh model in traditional pesantren.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the manifestation of piety constructed by women who are members of the Muslimah Ummahat Sholihah Community. Also, to analyze the level of their religious behavior. This research is a qualitative descriptive study that emphasizes field research. Researchers used observation techniques, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation to collect data. It turns out that the manifestation of women's piety is manifested by being obedient to the commands of Allah and His Messenger through the intermediary of teachers, covering their genitals and wearing the hijab, obeying their husbands, balancing ritual worship with social activities, and participating in religious activities. Meanwhile, the level of religious behavior of members of the Muslimah Ummahat Sholihah Community based on the results of the distribution of the questionnaire is categorized as high. Thus, the symbol of piety that they carry has absolutely nothing to do with conservatism, even radicalism, as some observers have alleged.
The Concept of Aswaja in the Thought of K. Abul Fadlol As-Senori (1916-1991 AD) and its Relationship with Aswaja in the Thought of KH. Hashim Ash`ari Faizin, Nur; Basid, Abdul; Ramadhan, Mochammad Rizal; Aliyyah, Dza Himmatin; Nasih, Ahmad Munjin; Marjuni, Kamaluddin Nurdin

Abstract

The concept of Ahlu sunnah wal jamaah (Aswaja) remains a subject of frequent debate. This article endeavors to provide a comprehensive exploration of the Aswaja concept through the perspective of the archipelago scholar, K. Abu Fadlol As-Senori, a disciple of KH. Hashim Ash`ari, the founder of the Nahdlatul Ulama. This article also strives to establish a connection between the concept of Aswaja as it is found and the Aswaja concept of KH. Hashim Ash`ari. This research is a descriptive-qualitative study. This study revealed that Aswaja, as defined by K. Abul Fadlol, encompasses four distinct groups: (1) the Muhadditsin, (2) the Sufiyyah (3) the Ash'ariyah and (4) Maturidiyah. As a student of KH. Hashim Ash`ari, the Aswaja concept of K. Abul Fadlol has a very big aspect of similarity. The concept of Aswaja from both becomes the foundation for building moderation in religion. Both also reject hardline Islamists who claim to be Aswaja

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the regeneration of ulama in North Sumatra carried out by pesantren and Pendidikan Kader Ulama (PKU). This research uses the literature study method by collecting written sources in the form of authoritative books and journals. The theory used in this study is the theory put forward by Azyumardi Azra, that the function of pesantren in the past was the transmission and transfer of Islamic sciences, preserving Islamic traditions, and being a place to reproduce ulama. Currently, there seems to have been a shift towards the theory that pesantren can no longer be expected as a forum for cadre ulama, so the alternative solution is to establish an independent clerical cadre institution. The results of this study show that there is currently a scarcity of ulama. Many pesantren that once functioned as appropriate reproducing ulama can no longer be expected because they have been contaminated with the current of modernization. Pesantren can reformulate the curriculum as before and also it can develop Ma'had 'Aly. PKU is an alternative solution that can be used as an effort to regenerate ulama. Then, another important thing is that the mastery of the yellow book for prospective ulama must be strengthened because it is an absolute qualification for ulama. The real contributions from this research are to provide recommendations for pesantren to reinstate their original function, namely producing clerical cadres. Then, the efforts to regenerate ulama must be supported by Islamic mass organizations as a legacy of ulama which are also responsible for establishing clerical regeneration institutions.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the dissemination of Islamic literature in contemporary East Java, the efforts of Islamic literature publishers to transmit and embed their ideology, and the significance of this ideology in maintaining the profitability of the publishing industry. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach, gathering primary data from publishing professionals and Islamic boarding schools in East Java. The phenomenological approach involves three stages of data reduction (phenomenological, eidetic, and transcendental). The findings reveal that ideology plays a crucial role in the success of the Islamic literature publishing business. Publishers employ strategic efforts and marketing techniques to identify and cater to market potential, including pre-press editing where content is selected based on the publisher's ideology. The demand for Islamic literature among consumers, particularly students in pesantren, is increasing, and publishers and distributors capitalize on this opportunity to maximize profits.

Abstract

The existence of a monodisciplinary approach leaves no room for discussion between the sciences. There needs to be an interconnection and integration approach so that some sciences can reveal ideas to solve the problems faced. The focus of this research is on the comparison of the thoughts of M. Amin Abdullah and Mehdi Golshani on the integration of scientific interconnections. This research is library research through data collection techniques by searching for sources, either articles, books, or other sources relevant to the topic of discussion. After collecting the data, it is selected, analyzed, and conclusions formulated. The results showed that Mehdi Golshani supported the integration of scientific interconnection, but only for religion and science. In contrast to the perspective of M. Amin Abdullah, who created the idea of interconnection between religious science and general science, not only science was described through spider webs. M. Amin Abdullah assumes that religion and general science must be open to each other, even though each science has characteristics. With openness, it can create space for discussion so that what is debated as a problem can be criticized to produce a more comprehensive opinion.
