Abstract

This study aims to explore Jamaluddin 'Athiyyah's concept of maqāshid al-sharīʿah, focusing on the hierarchical levels of dhārūriyāt, ḥājiyyāt, and taḥsīniyyāt as instrumental means (wasāil) to achieve the ultimate objectives of Shariah within the context of Muslim family resilience. Using a qualitative approach through literature review, this research primarily utilizes 'Athiyyah's Nahwa Taf'il as the primary source. The findings indicate that 'Athiyyah's reinterpretation of maqāshid al-sharīʿah offers an adaptive and dynamic approach to contemporary family challenges such as value degradation and family disintegration. The application of this concept includes the fulfillment of interconnected physical, psychological, and spiritual needs, and character education as instrumental aspects. This study concludes that 'Athiyyah's thought provides a comprehensive and effective conceptual framework for building resilient, balanced, and sustainable Muslim families grounded in Islamic values.

Abstract

This research examines the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on religious authority, specifically the role of Kiai and Ulama in Indonesia. AI offers opportunities to enhance the accessibility and efficiency of religious practices but poses challenges related to authenticity and religious hierarchy. The research method used is a literature review and document analysis, involving the collection and review of various sources such as journal articles, research reports, and online news. The findings indicate that AI has been adopted in various religious practices, including virtual preachers, prayer bots, and personalized religious guidance tools. However, there are significant concerns regarding AI's authenticity and authority in providing religious guidance, reflected in the prohibition of AI fatwas by major Islamic organizations in Indonesia. The "digital pulpit" is seen as a new arena where traditional religious authorities must actively negotiate their role amid the decentralizing and democratizing forces brought about by AI.

Abstract

The article highlights the intellectual response of contemporary Muslims on the philosophical construct and relational concept of democracy and shura. This was traced from selected writings of its advocates that discussed philosophical and epistemological background and current democratic situation in the Muslim countries and its fundamental relations with Islamic political aspiration and its historical manifestation and scientific backdrop. The intellectual debate pertinent to the idea of democracy and its compatibility with Islamic principles were rigorously developed by Muslim activists and democrats represented by Rachid Ghannouchi, Ahmad Raysuni, Fazlur Rahman, Anwar Ibrahim, Siddiq Fadzil, Nurcholish Madjid, Mustafa Akyol, and etcetera. The study is based on qualitative approaches using descriptive and analytical technique. The finding shows the dynamic force of ideas formulated on the theoretical framework of democracy reinforced with textual evidence and in line with Islamic political principles (siyasah syariyyah) and its universal ummatic ideal (pax-Islamica). Its underlying structure was built upon universal ethical values that formed the basis of state ideology. It positively embraces its values and ideals projected in the context of nation-state, which uphold sublime vision toward shaping a sustainable, just and liberal order. Its approaches were in line with the principle of shura and constitutional ideas aiming to safeguard fundamental aspiration of the people and their legitimate right and interest and their collective voice.

Abstract

Al-Thābarī's Tafsīr holds a strategic position in the classical Islamic scho­larly tradition and is often regarded as the primary representation of tafsīr bi al-riwāyah. However, scholarly approaches to his methodology have frequently been confined to a textual-narrative dichotomy, overlooking the deeper interpretive dimen­sions within his work. This study aims to reconstruct Al-Thābarī's exegetical methodology by examining the implicit hermeneutical principles that inform his approach to the Qur'an. Employing a qualitative method through textual analysis and a philosophical hermeneutic approach—particularly Gadamer's theory of the fusion of horizons—this research explores how Al-Thābarī synthesizes the authority of transmitted reports (riwāyah) with linguistic reasoning and historical assessment of isnād. The findings reveal that Al-Thābarī was not merely a transmitter of tradi­ti­on but an active exegete who engaged in a synthesis of tradition and rationality. This study underscores the importance of rereading classical exegesis within a dynamic and contextual modern hermeneutical framework, contributing to the development of a more responsive contemporary tafsīr methodology.

Abstract

This study analyzes the process of negotiating the identity and religious authority of the habaib at the Pesantren Sholahuddin in Surabaya. Historically viewed as descendants of the Prophet, the habaib are no longer accepted unconditionally but are continually negotiated based on their knowledge, morals, and social roles. Using a qualitative approach and ethnographic methods—including participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation—the study found that Pesantren Sholahuddin does not rely solely on lineage but also emphasizes scholarly credentials, lineage, and moral integrity. In this negotiation process, there is a dynamic construction of identity and authority, where lineage, scholarly knowledge, and moral character complement and compete with one another. This research makes an important contribution to the study of religious authority and the role of pesantren institutions as spaces for identity negotiation. It also demonstrates that religious leadership in Indonesia is not a monolithic entity but is formed through processes of negotiation and contestation based on multidimensional criteria.

Abstract

This article discusses resistance to the discourse of religious radicalism spreading rapidly in Indonesia. The passive attitude of some Muslims towards this issue has the potential to threaten the integrity of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI), so a serious response is needed. This research emerged from concerns about this phenomenon and aims to understand the forms of resistance against radical ideology through literary works (sastra), particularly the poems of Musthofa Bisri (Gus Mus). The qualitative descriptive approach is based on a literature review, with sources including documents, manuscripts, audiovisual materials, and other written references. This study employs Jorge J.E. Gracia’s hermeneutic approach. The results indicate that Gus Mus’s poems on Islam, nationalism, and the environment serve as an effective medium in countering radical ideology. Through subtle yet sharp satire and criticism, these poems function as a creative and elegant response and an essential tool in preserving national unity, harmony, and peace within society.

Abstract

This study examines and compares the concept of nafs in the works of two prominent Paripatetic Muslim philosophers: Ibn Sina and Ibn Bajjah. Both philosophers played important roles in developing the theory of the soul in the Islamic philosophical tradition. Though their views are often considered to be influenced by Greek philosophy, particularly Aristotelianism, this study seeks to demonstrate that their concept of nafs is an original contribution with a strong foundation in the Qur'an and Sunnah. Using a qualitative approach, the study collects data from the primary works of both figures as well as relevant secondary literature. The analysis reveals key differences between the two philosophers. First, Ibn Sina divides the types of nafs into three: the vegetable soul, the animal soul, and the human soul. In contrast, Ibn Bajjah analyzes the nafs more simply, focusing on its power. Second, regarding the immortality of the nafs, Ibn Sina's view is more comprehensive than Ibn Bajjah's, which limits immortality to the mind and the nafs natiqah. Third, regarding the perfection of the nafs, Ibn Sina emphasizes its perfection as a whole, whereas Ibn Bajjah limits it to the context of active reason.
Understanding Worship as the Realization of Human Essence in Ibn ‘Arabi’s Philosophical Sufism Faizi, Moh.

Abstract

This article explores the meaning of worship in the perspective of Ibn ʿArabi’s philosophical Sufism, focusing on its role as a means for realizing the essence of the human being. In Islamic tradition, worship is generally understood as a set of ritual activities that affirm a servant’s obedience to God. Ibn ʿArabi, however, offers a more profound and philosophical approach, in which worship is seen as an ontological process that enables the human being to recognize their deepest identity as a creature reflecting the Divine names and attributes. This study employs a literature-based method, analyzing Ibn ʿArabi’s major works alongside interpretations offered by Sufi scholars. The findings show that, according to Ibn ʿArabi, worship serves as a path to unveiling the existential reality of the human being and actualizing their spiritual perfection as the insān kāmil. Thus, worship is not merely an outward practice but also a medium through which human consciousness becomes aligned with the source of its being. This understanding offers a significant contribution to renewing perspectives on worship within the context of contemporary spirituality.

Abstract

This study discusses Management Development in Islamic Educational Institutions. The application of management in Islamic educational institutions will not distance education from Islamic values; instead, its presence makes Islamic education more organized, planned, and able to achieve educational goals effectively. Management development in Islamic educational institutions is carried out through a philosophical approach within the framework of ontology, epistemology, and axiology. Development through this philosophical framework is expected to enable Islamic Educational Management to continue moving towards its ideal form in line with the dynamic development of science and technology. Islamic educational institutions are not merely places for transferring religious knowledge; moreover, Islamic educational institutions must be able to produce a generation capable of competing amidst the development of science and technology. This is proof that Islam is rahmatan lil'alamin (blessing for all the universe), whose existence is timeless.

Abstract

The hadith on preferences in choosing a life partner “Women are married for four reasons…” is frequently interpreted in a partial and hierarchical manner, placing physical aspects such as beauty, wealth, and lineage on the same level as, or even above, religious values. Such textual-literal readings reproduce patriarchal norms and overlook the historical context of the hadith’s emergence. This study reinterprets the hadith through Hans-Georg Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics, emphasizing pre-understanding and the fusion of horizons between text and reader. Using a qualitative–critical approach and drawing on both classical (turāth) and contemporary scholarship, this research finds that religion in the hadith is not merely one of four equal considerations but serves as a normative critique of the materialistic and status-oriented tendencies of Arab society at the time. Non-physical criteria such as moral integrity, responsibility, and mutual respect represent the core religious values that should be prioritized. Through Gadamerian hermeneutics, the hadith is contextualized as an ethical guideline for forming marital relationships that are balanced, just, and free from patriarchal domination, reaffirming the primacy of religious values in contemporary practice
