Abstract

Harald Motzki initiated a theory of hadith analysis called Isnad Cum Matn analysis to counter hadith criticism by orientalist groups who are skeptical of hadith. They assume that all hadiths are fake, and also assume that common links are hadith forgers. This study aims to analyze the hadith authentication method initiated by Harald Motzki. Sources of research come from the work of Motzki, books and other articles that review this theory. The results of this literature study are: 1) Moztki rejects the opinion of Gholdziher, Schacht and Juynboll who state that hadith is inauthentic; 2) A common link does not mean a forger of hadith; 3) According to Motzki, to assess the authenticity of a hadith, one must study both sanad and matn (isnad cum matn analysis); 4) This method was applied by Kamaruddin Amin to the hadith of shaum by comparing historical variants and paying attention to the characteristics of the hadith editorial staff, which finally led to the conclusion that the hadith of shaum had been spread starting in the first half of the Hijri century; 5) Motzki's critique of skeptical orientalists points to the emergence of hadith and their assumption of common link and single strand, that hadith has been the basis of law since the first century of hijriah, then common link is considered as a collector of hadith, while single strand is the most trusted path.

This research used qualitative scientific methods based on field research through observation, interviews, and library research. The results of this study indicated that the social activities carried out by Lazismu are a manifestation of tajdid/renewal and efforts to revive hadiths. The Lazismu assistance program includes direct assistance to the poor, natural disaster relief, educational issues, and the economy. Lazismu has a major influence on the welfare of the Indonesian people, especially the poor and underdeveloped and those affected by disasters. Poor and unemployed people receive productive alms assistance from Lazismu to facilitate their innovation and creativity in creating business opportunities that are able to develop and be sustainable.

Abstract

Iftirāq al-ummah hadith in the contemporary era is considered a problematic hadith both at the level of understanding and practice. The meaning of the hadith is considered to be contrary to the Qur'an and other hadiths which uphold the spirit of unity and brotherhood. At the practical level, this hadith is considered to be a trigger for division and conflict among Muslims. This study aims to map contemporary scholars' understanding models of iftirāq al-ummah hadith. To track this understanding model, the main questions are: 1) what is the model for the tendency of contemporary scholars to understand the hadith, 2) what is the impact of each model of understanding on the scientific world of hadith and also the praxis of people's lives, and 3) how to construct arguments built. This research is a narrative-historical approach, as well as content analysis that combines descriptive, critical and hermeneutical analysis, this study shows that the understanding of contemporary scholars of the iftirāq al-ummah hadith can be grouped into three models, namely 1) exclusive understanding model; 2) rejective understanding model; 3) inclusive understanding model; 4) introspective understanding model. The first understanding tends to cause conflict among Muslims, while the other three are criticisms of the first model. Each understanding put forward coherent arguments and pragmatic arguments to strengthen his opinion.

Abstract

This paper explores the role of Salawat Adhiya Ulami in providing peace of mind to the members ofMajelis Jalsatul Itsnain Baa Alawy in Katapang, Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. This study employs aqualitative descriptive method and a phenomenological approach to uncover the life experiences of thecongregation. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed usingqualitative analysis techniques. The findings reveal that Salawat Adhiya Ulami encapsulates the life historyof the Prophet Muhammad from birth to death and serves as a medium for expressing the congregation'slonging for the Prophet. The study highlights that, through a Sufistic approach, the act of reciting SalawatAdhiya Ulami provides a profound sense of inner peace to the congregation, fostering a belief in attaininghusnul khatimah (a good ending) in their lives. This belief is rooted in the Qur’anic verse: “O calm souls,return to your Lord, well-pleased and pleasing to Him. Enter among My servants, and enter MyParadise.” This research contributes to the study of Islamic spirituality by emphasizing the psychological andspiritual benefits of devotional practices, as well as offering a methodological insight into the use ofphenomenology in exploring religious experiences.

Primary data were derived from the Qur'an andcross-checked with secondary sources, including classical and contemporary interpretations. The findings ofstudy reveal that: (a) the word basyar appears 37 times in the Qur'an—31 times without the definitearticle (alif-lam), 5 times with the definite article, and once in the dual form; (b) there are 9 versesdescribing humans as basyar in general, highlighting their physical needs such as eating, having skin,engaging in sexual activity, and experiencing mortality; (c) 5 verses discuss the process of human creationinvolving soil, water, and the infusion of the spirit; (d) 23 verses discuss prophethood, including 13 depictingsocietal rejection and slander of prophets, and 10 emphasizing prophets as ordinary humans (basyar); (e)using a humanistic psychology perspective, basyar represents humans with basic physiological needs such aseating, drinking, sleeping, and sexual relations. This study contributes to Islamic scholarship by providingan integrative understanding of basyar as a term bridging Qur'anic theology and humanistic psychology.Furthermore, the use of content analysis as a methodological tool in exploring Qur'anic conceptsdemonstrates the potential for interdisciplinary approaches in Qur'anic studies.

Abstract

The phenomenon of the “crazy rich” as a representation of modern materialism and hedonism has influenced the lives of the young generation of Indonesia in the millennial era. The glamorous and luxurious lifestyle displayed by the “crazy rich” has attracted many individuals to show off their wealth, even when the wealth is not yet truly owned. This phenomenon often ends in investment fraud harming many parties. This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of the “fake crazy rich” and fraudulent investment in Indonesia from the perspective of Inayat Khan's philosophy of happiness in Sufism, distinguishing between true happiness and false happiness. This study uses a qualitative approach with Inayat Khan's theoretical analysis as a conceptual framework. Data were collected through literature studies and analysis of relevant social phenomena. The study found that the phenomenon of the “fake crazy rich” and investment fraud in Indonesia reflects the efforts of the younger generation to pursue material wealth as a measure of life success. However, from Inayat Khan's perspective, this is a form of false happiness not providing true life satisfaction, but suffering and humiliation. This study provides a theoretical contribution by applying Inayat Khan's philosophy of happiness to understand contemporary social phenomena in Indonesia. In addition, this study also provides critical insights into the impact of materialism and hedonism on the younger generation and the importance of distinguishing between true happiness and false happiness in modern life.

Abstract

The spread of Covid-19 during Ramadan 1442 H led to the closure of all worship activities in most places. However, the Jogokariyan Mosque in Yogyakarta maintained active religious activities attended by its congregation. This study aims to analyze the vertical religious behavior between God and human beings, specifically among the congregation of Jogokariyan Mosque during the COVID-19 pandemic. This research adopts a qualitative method with a case study approach. The informants include 20 mosque congregants, 1 mosque takmir, and 2 Ramadan 1442 H committee members. Data collection techniques encompass interviews, observations, and documentation, while data analysis involves reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification methods. The findings reveal that the congregation's religious behavior during Ramadan was well-organized and followed the activities scheduled by the mosque takmir. These activities included breaking fast events, tarawih prayers, and religious studies conducted both online and offline. The mosque congregation enthusiastically participated in these events with seriousness and dedication. The study demonstrates that these behaviors align with psychosocial and neurospiritual theories, highlighting the resilience and spiritual commitment of the community amidst the pandemic. This research contributes to the understanding of vertical religious behavior during crises, enriching psychosocial and neurospiritual perspectives within the context of Islamic spirituality. Future research can explore broader contexts or comparative studies across different religious communities to deepen insights into the dynamics of religiosity during challenging

Abstract

This article investigates the acculturation of Islam with the Aboge community and addresses two primary issues: firstly, the position of Islam Aboge between traditional heritage and a religious sect; and secondly, its adaptation in the face of changing times. The research employs a qualitative methodology with field research as the primary approach. Data collection techniques include interviews, observations, and document analysis, while data analysis involves thematic analysis to identify patterns and themes in the integration of Islam and Aboge traditions. The findings reveal that Islam Aboge, as a hereditary tradition, remains prevalent among local communities in East Java, particularly in Probolinggo and Jember, where it is embraced by many ethnic Madurese. This cultural interaction has enabled the Islam Aboge community to coexist with mainstream Islamic society. While Islam Aboge shows some similarities with the Abangan typology in Clifford Geertz’s framework, the community retains fundamental Islamic practices such as prayer and fasting, maintaining a distinct religious identity. However, the community faces challenges from modernization, having led to a gradual shift toward mainstream Islam and a decline in adherence to Aboge traditions. This study contributes to the understanding of Islamic acculturation in local contexts and the dynamics of religious identity in the face of social change. It highlights the complexities of maintaining traditional religious practices within modern societal structures. The findings provide valuable insights into the interaction between religion and culture, enriching discussions on religious pluralism and heritage preservation
