Abstract

This study aimed to examine the stories of 25 prophets mentioned in the Qur'an within the framework of the existential theory. The research has been studied on associating the prophets and their stories in the Qur'an with the concepts of the existential theory. While the life of the prophets was encountered with the existentially positive concepts of the existential theory, no relationship could be established with the negative concepts. Knowing that the prophets mentioned in the holy book of Islam, the Qur'an, can be associated with the concepts of existential theory is important because it can be beneficial in existential therapy studies with Muslims. In addition, the study finding is significant in terms of establishing a bridge between the Qur'an, which is the main element of Islam, and the existence of western philosophers and mental health experts.

Abstract

This study discusses the politics of recognition of Baha'i adherents in Indonesia, who face obstacles in society. Apart from rejection in society, there are restrictions on their civil rights. This research was conducted in a regional locus in Kubu Raya, West Kalimantan.  In addition to discussing Baha'I adherents, who are not widely known by the public, especially in Kubu Raya, the study aims to provide important information regarding the relationship between the Baha’is and the majority Muslim community and the government of Kubu Raya. The research was conducted with a socio-legal approach, directly taking to the field by conducting interviews—data analysis through stages; data condensation, data exposure, conclusion, and verification. The research findings explain that Baha'i adherents have not been fully recognized by society and the law in Indonesia, but amid the Muslim majority community in Kubu Raya, they have never experienced rejection; in fact, their existence is very well received by the people of Kubu Raya who are known to be diverse and accept differences. Baha’i adherents are known to be very kind, friendly, and open by the people of Kubu Raya. On the other hand, the Baha'i adherents are not fully recognized by the Kubu Raya Local Government, so civil rights that should be fully guaranteed, assist-ed, and protected by the constitution, are still hampered because the existing system in government administration does not provide a Baha'i religion column.

Basic conclusion from the process of human understanding of God's will for the present and future of humans based on the Bible Humans use the formulation of theology to free themselves from the problems of life, including poverty, education, the economy, security, and politics. Man invites God to intervene in human life to depends on the goodness of God. Sound theology is rooted in God as a way of life that has a closer relationship with God, the Creator. This hope positions theology as a solution to human problems in the world, specifically giving humans life in holiness, giving humans life in eschatological victory, giving humans life as the Salt and Light of the World, and theology of safeguarding humanity's hope against suffering calamity.

Abstract

Indonesia and Malaysia generally have the same Islamic character and history, so the development of Islamic law also has the same roots. Then there were differences in the development of Islamic law, including the law on waqf, which was caused by differences in colonial history. The Dutch colonized Indonesia, and Malaysia was colonized by the British. Therefore, they have different systems and state administrations. This study aims to explain how much support for positive legal products that regulate waqf impacts the development of productive waqf instruments in Indonesia and Malaysia, although with different legal systems. This research is literature research with a juridical-normative approach with a qualitative model. Analysis of the data used is the interactive analysis model of Miles and Huberman. The study results in show that in Indonesia and Malaysia, waqf legal products have existed since the sultanate era, colonial era, and independence era. Waqf legal products in Indonesia regulate more about waqf of immovable objects, which are regulated in different legal products. However, since the birth of the Waqf Law in 2004, waqf has not only focused on immovable objects but also movable and productive objects following the development of the financial world. And business. Likewise, in Malaysia, the legal product of waqf is included in family law which is regulated in the law in each different country, including the territory of the alliance. Productive waqf has also penetrated productive economic efforts by the purpose of waqf.

Abstract

This study aims to measure the efficiency of Takaful companies in Southeast Asia and the Middle East region. The efficiency level of Takaful companies in Southeast Asia and the Middle East region was examined from 2016 to 2020. The sample consisted of 23 companies in Indonesia, 14 in Malaysia, three in UEA, and 31 in Saudi Arabia. The efficiency value of Islamic insurance companies was calculated using the Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) method, afterward, the Mann-Whitney test was performed. The results showed that the efficiency median value of the companies in Southeast Asia was lower compared to the Middle East with respective values of 0.26 and 0.32. It was concluded from the results of the Mann-Whitney test that the differences in the median efficiency value of Islamic insurance companies in Southeast Asia and the Middle East were not significant. The novelty of this research is to provide new and significant information on the performance of Takaful Companies during 2016-2020. The results of this study have significant implications for policymakers in each of the countries examined to understand the efficiency condition of Takaful companies in the region. Furthermore, policymakers in Southeast Asia need to promote low-efficiency Takaful operators to expand their business. The lowest efficiency score for Takaful companies is in Indonesia, especially for small Takaful companies. The implication is that the Indonesian government or related agencies need to increase the popularity of Takaful companies among the public so that income and efficiency increase.

Abstract

Religious responses to Covid-19 raised several far-reaching questions with a number of socio-legal implications. How does the historical tension between science, politics and religion manifest itself in global pandemics? What ethical and human rights issues are at play as a health crisis unfolds, and what is the role of the media in mitigating such issues? Finally, how significant is the pastoral role which is thrust upon religious leaders in times of crisis, and how should this role be understood in the materialistic and secular modern era? This article addresses such questions within the specific context of England. It builds upon previous research by the author on the responses of the British Muslim community to the Covid-19 pandemic, by expanding the analysis to explore the broader socio-legal themes that emerged within religious responses to Covid-19 in England.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the growth and impact of Christianity as a missionary religion on the Islamic da'wah in Indonesia, where the Muslim community has a long history of resistance to colonialization, which was initiated by the Christian community. Furthermore, a qualitative descriptive method was used with data predominantly obtained through the observation of facts in the Christianization field. In addition, the effects of Christianity on the Islamic da'wah were analyzed through a review of documentation and reference studies. The results showed that some of the methods used by Christians in spreading their religion and movements were occupation, politics, Western citizens, poverty, diseases, consciousness weakness, self-preparation, Muslims' indulgence, financial guarantees, Laziness in teachings, preparing the missionaries, and brainwashing. By utilizing these methods, Christians often proclaimed their denomination and congregation, ultimately leading to various community conflicts. The findings suggest the need for a healthy and productive dialogue from a new perspective to resolve conflicts, promote harmony, and create a fairer, peaceful, and innovative civilization that views religion through spiritual perspectives.
