Abstract

Mainstream narratives often label the Medieval period as a time of global intellectual stagnation, whereas Islamic civilization actually recorded a golden age through the integration of theology, philosophy, and science, reaching its pinnacle. This study seeks to reconstruct the concept of knowledge (‘ilm) in the medieval Islamic tradition and to map the interrelation between the authority of revelation and rationality. The author applies a library research method with content analysis techniques on the thoughts of key figures such as Al-Farabi, Ibn Rushd (Averroes), and Ibn al-Haytham. The analysis identifies three fundamental points: first, medieval Islamic epistemology was holistic, eliminating the dichotomy between sacred and profane spheres; second, the Qur’an serves as an epistemological constitution that legitimizes empirical observation through the doctrine of the "Two Books" (Tadwini and Takwini); and third, philosophy and science are positioned as collective obligations (fardhu kifayah) consistent with the message of revelation. This study concludes that addressing the crisis of modern knowledge dichotomy requires a renewed adoption of the classical spirit of epistemological integration.

Abstract

The Fatimid Dynasty (909–1171 AD) in Egypt marked one of the most important phases in the history of Islamic education. As a dynasty that embraced Ismaili Shi'ism, the Fatimids not only strengthened their political power, but also actively developed an education system as a means of spreading ideology and knowledge. One of their most monumental contributions was the establishment of Al-Azhar University in 970 AD, which initially functioned as a center for spreading Ismaili teachings, but later developed into an inclusive center of Islamic scholarship. The Fatimid government provided significant support for the development of educational institutions through funding, establishing libraries, and appointing prominent scholars as teachers. This article aims to historically examine the development and role of Islamic educational institutions during the Fatimid Dynasty and their contribution to the Islamic scholarly tradition. The method used is a literature study with a historical-critical approach to primary and secondary sources. The results of the study show that the Fatimid Dynasty succeeded in creating an organized education system that became a model for the development of Islamic educational institutions in subsequent periods.

Abstract

The role of faith in organizational development has gained increasing attention, particularly in Islamic contexts where religious principles shape organizational practices and communication strategies. Islamic values such as justice, Shura (consultation), and community welfare have profound implications for organizational behavior, leadership, and social responsibility. This study aims to explore how these faith-based principles influence organizational communication and contribute to social change. The research focuses on Islamic organizations, examining the integration of faith in decision-making, communication practices, and community engagement. A qualitative case study approach was employed, incorporating interviews with organizational leaders and employees, document analysis, and observations across five Islamic organizations. The findings suggest that the incorporation of Islamic values leads to more inclusive decision-making processes, stronger communication channels, and a heightened sense of social responsibility. Organizations that prioritized faith-based values demonstrated greater transparency, employee engagement, and community involvement. The study concludes that faith plays a central role in fostering social change within organizations, enhancing both internal development and broader societal impact. Integrating Islamic values into organizational practices not only promotes ethical decision-making but also drives positive social transformation. These findings contribute to the understanding of faith-based organizational development and offer practical insights for integrating religious values in modern organizational contexts.

Abstract

Islamic art is an effective medium of proselytization in conveying the spiritual and moral values of Islam to society. Islamic arts, such as calligraphy, mosque architecture, music, and poetry, not only have aesthetic value but also contain deep religious messages. However, in the era of globalization, Islamic art faces challenges such as the influence of global culture and technology, so it needs to be further explored to ensure its relevance. The purpose of this study is to analyze religious expression in Islamic art and its potential as a medium for da’wah, as well as identify challenges and opportunities in the contemporary era. The method used is a literature study with a qualitative approach, collecting and analyzing academic sources such as journals, books, and reliable articles. The results showed that Islamic art plays an important role in building spiritual identity, facilitating character education, and bridging intercultural dialogue. Key findings include the effectiveness of Islamic art in da’wah, its adaptation to digital technology, and its synergy with local values. In conclusion, Islamic art is a powerful and multifunctional medium for da’wah, which needs to be preserved and developed to remain relevant amidst the dynamics of the times. Recommendations include training for artists and preachers, as well as collaboration between stakeholders to support innovation in Islamic arts.
