Abstract

The phenomenon of pekhanjangan money as a customary sanction in the marriage of the Singkil Aceh Tribe creates a dilemma between the fulfillment of the right to marry and customary obligations. This tradition requires the bride-to-be to compensate her unmarried brother before the wedding. This research aims to analyze the practice of pekhanjangan money and its relevance to maqasid sharia, especially in the aspects of maintaining religion, soul, offspring, mind, and property. The research method uses a qualitative approach with the type of case study in three sub-districts of Aceh Singkil District. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 15 informants (traditional leaders, religious leaders, perpetrators, and recipients of pekhanjangan), participant observation in three marriage cases, and documentation studies. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The results showed that the practice of pekhanjangan is still strongly implemented with a flexible system, where the value of compensation can be negotiated according to economic capacity, ranging from one mayam of gold to other forms of compensation. From the maqasid sharia perspective, this practice supports the maintenance of the soul and intellect through its function in maintaining family harmony and mental health. However, implementation adjustments are needed so as not to cause excessive hardship for the less well-off parties and remain in line with sharia principles.

Abstract

Students who work while studying often experience anxiety and difficulty in managing time, which hurts their learning outcomes and emotional well-being. This study aims to understand the initial state of the counselee, the process of applying therapy, and the impact of applying Client-Centered Theory with Positive Regard (Acceptance) techniques in managing the anxiety of these students. This research uses a qualitative approach with observation, documentation, and interview methods, and the type of case study research. The results showed positive changes in the counselee after therapy, including improvements in positive affirmations, emotional management, and social interactions. The counselee began to smile more often, take a deep breath, worship more diligently, and show improvement in interacting with family. In conclusion, applying Client-Centered Theory with Positive Regard (Acceptance) techniques effectively manages the anxiety of students who study while working. This therapy helps counselees to accept themselves, think positively, and improve emotional and social well-being. It is hoped that the counselee will continue to remember Allah as a source of strength and understand that everything happens by His will, including the challenges faced.

Abstract

Scholars explore the concept of rationality from various angles, often associating it with thinking that transcends divine considerations. In these debates, some academics have positioned themselves against the Quran, questioning its consistency with rational thought—however, many scholars argue that the Quran addresses subjects metaphysically, harmonizing reason and revelation. A detailed examination reveals numerous verses advocating reasoning, critical thinking, and empirical analysis. These verses invite believers to reflect on natural phenomena, historical events, and ethical dilemmas, underscoring the Quran's emphasis on intellectual engagement and moral discernment.  This paper elucidates the Quran's nuanced approach to rationality by analyzing over five dozen Quranic verses that directly or indirectly discuss the nature and application of reason. Using Islamic research methodologies, it highlights the balance between reason and spirituality, showing that rational thinking is integral to Quranic teachings. This study addresses skeptical or misleading criticisms, affirming that the Quran integrates reason and revelation to offer a comprehensive intellectual and spiritual development framework. Future research should examine how Quranic rationality informs contemporary Islamic thought and practice, especially concerning modern scientific and ethical challenges. Comparative studies between Quranic perspectives on rationality and other philosophical or religious traditions are also recommended to foster interfaith and intercultural understanding.

Abstract

This paper explores the renaissance and development of Islam in North Africa, focusing on historical accounts and religious narratives that predate the arrival of Islam through ‘Amr bin ‘Ᾱṣ under the caliphate of ‘Umar. This study is driven by the need for a deeper understanding of how Islam in North Africa underwent historical transformations, from its early introduction to the detailed development of Islamic laws and traditions. Some historians argue that Islam was introduced earlier through migration to Abyssinia, although it was not adopted as a way of life. Other perspectives, such as Nmah (2018), highlight the role of interactions between Muslims and Christians along the Nile River as the starting point for Islamization and Arabization in the region. The paper also examines the presence of Prophet Yusuf in Egypt and the mission of Prophet Musa to the Israelites, as described in the Qur’an. These narratives indicate that Islam has been known in Egypt since ancient times, though Islamic law was not fully detailed. This study identifies four key periods in the history of Islam in North Africa: the migration to Abyssinia, the period of Prophet Yusuf, the period of Prophet Musa, and the Muslim conquest of Egypt by ‘Amr bin ‘Ᾱṣ. The study concludes that Islam's message has remained consistent since the beginning of humanity, with only the details of Shariah evolving. Future research should focus on the post-conquest period of ‘Amr bin ‘Ᾱṣ, particularly the dynamics of Islamization and Arabization and their impact on local culture and society in North Africa.

Abstract

The definition and function of Islamic education are still a hot debate in Central Asian Muslim societies. Islam is a significant characteristic of these societies, and the governments approach the idea more utterly. The entire region is earmarked by a distinctive aspect of Islamic civilization that shaped the political and socio-economic structure of this region. This distinction corresponds to a spectacular culture with much broader intellectual traditions rooted in Inner Asia than those of Iran and the Middle East. The study of Islam in Central Asia not only represents various socio-political issues but also discusses contemporary intellectual revival (Tajdid) in the Islamic education system. The Soviet imposition of the teaching of scientific atheism in public schools meant that there were virtually no educators who were familiar with secular, social scientific curricula and teaching methodologies on the study of religion. The lack of pedagogical tools for teaching social scientific approaches to religion led to the widespread view that religion can or should be understood only in doctrinal terms. Not surprisingly, critical and comparative approaches to the study of religion, still in a nascent stage of development, have not found much of a following. The extreme Salafist elucidations of Islam, as well as leaden approaches of traditional viewpoints, are also a challenge to Islamic education in Central Asia since 2005. In 2010, Central Asian scholars of Islam became aware of the potential dangers of an overly narrow religious education and regularly express these concerns due to the isolation of much of the region from prestigious centres of Islamic learning, including Jamiaal-Azhar of Egypt, Arab Institutions and reputed Indo-Pak religious seminaries. In the given context, this article assesses the contemporary discourse of Islamic education in Central Asian Muslim societies, as well as its socio-political implications and significant challenges for designing a balanced pedagogical framework in Islamic education.

Abstract

This study explores the historical and contemporary sectarian divisions within the Muslim world, particularly the Sunni-Shia split, and their political, social, and economic consequences. The research is motivated by the persistent fragmentation of the Muslim Ummah, which has weakened its global influence and made Muslim nations more susceptible to external interference. The study aims to analyze the root causes of sectarianism, assess its impact on the socio-political landscape of Muslim countries, and propose strategies for fostering unity. Using a qualitative research approach, including historical analysis and textual interpretation of Qur'anic and Hadith teachings, this study examines case studies from various Muslim nations to evaluate the real-world implications of sectarian divisions. The findings highlight that disunity among Muslim communities stems not only from theological differences but also from political rivalries and external interventions. Islamic principles such as wahda (unity), ukhuwah (brotherhood), shura (consultation), and adl (justice) provide a strong foundation for overcoming these divisions and strengthening the Ummah's collective sovereignty. This study recommends fostering inter-sectarian dialogue, promoting mutual understanding, and establishing cooperative frameworks among Muslim nations, particularly between influential countries such as Saudi Arabia and Iran. Future research should explore practical mechanisms for implementing these strategies at institutional and governmental levels and the role of Islamic education in countering sectarian narratives. Strengthening unity through Qur'anic values and Prophetic guidance can enhance the Muslim world's resilience, dignity, and autonomy in the face of global challenges.

Abstract

This study examines the role of religious families as a source of Islamic cultural capital in shaping students’ religious identity and learning dispositions in Islamic Religious Education (PAI). Using the social theory framework of Pierre Bourdieu, particularly the concepts of social capital, cultural capital, and habitus, this study analyzes how religious values, knowledge, and practices are transmitted within families and influence students’ learning experiences. The study adopts a qualitative literature-based analytical approach to explore forms of religious practices within Muslim families, such as daily worship routines, parental role modeling, moral discussions, and participation in religious activities. The findings indicate that religious families function not only as normative institutions of religious teaching but also as strategic arenas for the formation and reproduction of Islamic cultural capital. These practices contribute to the development of religious habitus, Qur’anic literacy, moral discipline, and positive learning dispositions toward PAI. Furthermore, the accumulation of Islamic cultural capital within families strengthens students’ motivation, academic performance, and religious behavior in educational settings. In Bourdieu’s perspective, the transmission of religious values and knowledge within the family represents a mechanism of cultural reproduction that shapes students’ dispositions and positions within the educational field. Therefore, the success of Islamic Religious Education is not solely determined by school factors but is also strongly influenced by the strength of religious habitus and Islamic cultural capital formed within the family environment.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the practice of using Quranic verses as a medium for healing and to understand its meaning as well as public responses to it. The phenomenon of Quranic verse-based healing represents a form of living reception of the Quran embedded within socio-religious practices. In this context, Quranic verses are not only regarded as sacred texts recited in acts of worship but are also interpreted as therapeutic instruments believed to possess spiritual power in the healing process. This practice is typically carried out by traditional healers known as molang, individuals recognized within the community for their specialized knowledge and experience in utilizing Quranic verses as healing media. Employing a qualitative approach with the Living Quran method, this field research focuses on the functional reception of the Quran within society. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving healers and community members who engage with these practices. The analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that healing practices performed by molang, such as Abdullah Marjuki and Ridwan Janan, combine the recitation of Quranic verses with specific media, forming a distinctive model of traditional medicine. These verses are believed to carry spiritual efficacy capable of addressing various illnesses. Strong public trust contributes significantly to the continuity of this practice. Overall, community responses indicate positive perceptions of its effectiveness, enabling this tradition to persist within religious and cultural life.

Abstract

Modernity, characterized by rationalism, materialism, and the dominance of technology, has generated spiritual, moral, and existential crises in contemporary human life. This condition highlights the need to reinterpret Sufi teachings so that they remain relevant in addressing modern challenges. This study aims to analyze the concepts of ma‘rifah and fanā’ in the classical Sufi tradition and examine their reinterpretation within the framework of modern Sufism. This research employs a qualitative approach through library research, examining both classical and contemporary literature related to Sufi thought. The findings reveal that in classical Sufism, ma‘rifah is understood as an inner knowledge of God attained through spiritual purification and mystical experience, while fanā’ refers to the dissolution of the human ego in the presence of the Divine without negating adherence to Islamic law (sharia). In the context of modern Sufism, these two concepts have undergone a contextual reinterpretation. Ma‘rifah is no longer viewed solely as an individual mystical experience but as a form of spiritual awareness integrated with rationality, ethics, and social responsibility. Meanwhile, fanā’ is interpreted as the transformation of ego-centered consciousness into an ethical awareness that fosters social concern and moral commitment. This reinterpretation demonstrates that Sufism is not incompatible with modernity; rather, it can serve as a spiritual and ethical foundation for addressing the crisis of meaning in modern society. Therefore, the concepts of ma‘rifah and fanā’ in modern Sufism function as a spiritual paradigm capable of balancing the material and spiritual dimensions of contemporary human life..

Abstract

The rapid development of Islamic finance raises critical questions regarding whether financial products truly reflect the substantive objectives of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah beyond mere contractual compliance. In particular, the implementation of Ijarah Muntahiyah Bittamlik (IMBT) in Islamic home financing presents both opportunities and challenges in aligning operational mechanisms with ethical and socio-economic objectives. This study aims to analyze the internalization of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah values within the IMBT scheme and to evaluate its role in promoting financial inclusion, economic justice, and sustainable household welfare. This research employs a qualitative approach using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, synthesizing relevant scholarly works on IMBT, maqasid, and value-based Islamic finance. The analysis focuses on the operational structure of IMBT, its compliance with Sharia principles, and its broader socio-economic implications. The findings indicate that IMBT has the potential to function not only as a Sharia-compliant financing instrument but also as a value-based mechanism that promotes equitable wealth distribution and financial stability. However, the study also reveals that the implementation of maqasid values remains limited due to challenges in governance, regulatory harmonization, and practical application. These limitations suggest that many Islamic financial products still operate within a legalistic framework rather than fully embodying ethical objectives. This study implies that strengthening governance, enhancing transparency, and integrating value-based intermediation principles are essential to ensure that IMBT contributes effectively to achieving the higher objectives of Shariah and advancing a more just and sustainable financial system.
