Abstract

The buwuhan tradition has for hundreds of years been a means of social cohesion in rural communities. In social relations, buwuhan can be conceived of as economic negotiations using an exchange approach. As a subculture, buwuhan becomes a strategic tool in marking the stages of one’s life, which is held at weddings and circumcisions. In rural communities this economic exchange is organized through record keeping. Awareness of social norms of negligence requires that the exchange value be paid back at a minimum. In the modern era, the buwuhan tradition experiences a value shift, making the buwuhan tradition a means of taking personal advantage, which is wrapped in the values of solidarity and harmony. Especially in urban communities and societies undergoing social transformation such as sub-urban communities. This is because modernization has changed the way people look at the value of money. This meaning has further led to the occurrence of abusive practices that have been implemented improperly, forced, exploited, with modes and strategies for material gain. To preserve the value of the buwuhan tradition, there must be a social reconstruction that returns the meaning of this tradition into its function as a social cohesion that can be accepted by the norms of modern society, which are more rational, realistic, interactive, familiar, and harmonious.

Abstract

It is no longer surprising that Indonesia is still susceptible to finding many cases involving faith. Whether it is the entry of radicalism, which results in the rise of a derogatory stereotype toward Muslims in Christian circles, or even disputes among Muslims over who is the most right in his teachings. As stated in the Indonesian Ulama Council’s East Java Province declaration, which summarizes the findings of their tausiyah on greetings using other religious greetings. This assertion has sparked debate in a number of circles. Students, in particular, who work in a group or association that promotes interreligious harmony. Numerous them expressed reservations about the MUI comment. Given that students are considered to be a part of civil society, who would remain quiet if anything disturbs and impairs the community’s human rights? As such, this study seeks to ascertain the role of students as civil society in preserving religious believers’ unity in the face of disputes about how to express greetings from other religions and their relationship to the study of living hadith. Since the researcher explores historical events and takes a qualitative approach, this study is classified as historical research. After all, the researcher obtains data from carefully chosen informants. The findings of this study indicate that students of different religions are still attempting to preserve peace in a variety of ways, one of which is by not objecting to the greeting of other religions, as Islam contains a wealth of information about the sense of tolerance, both in the Qu’ran and the Hadith.

Abstract

The article examines the sacred experience of the Sapen culture in interpreting and conserving the tahlilan and kenduti traditions. In the midst of globalization and urban life, The Sapen’s people from a decade ago continue to practice tahlilan in some circumstances. The aim of this article is to clarify the factors that contribute to the continuity of the tahlilan and kenduri traditions in the Sapen community through the lens of religious phenomenology. The study employs fieldwork, participatory observation, and interviewing techniques. The findings of this study indicate that three factors contribute to the continuity of the tahlilan and kenduri traditions in Sapen. To begin, there is the influence of immigrants who used to practice tahlilan in their village. Second, cultural traits inherited from elders are passed down across generations. Third, a strong sense of brotherhood and peace among the Sapen peoples. Additionally, Tahlilan is viewed as a vehicle for citizens to interact and spread the message of Islam within the Sapen culture.

Abstract

Islam and philosophy are two different terms in which the first refers to a religion, which absolute truth overcomes all space and time, brought by Allah’s most beloved Prophet, Muhammad SAW. The latter represents human activity in utilizing their intellect, optimizing their consciousness to reach understanding on any existence. Thus, this paper attempts to explore the belief that Islam must have established a set of implementation and technical guidance for philosophy. This paper aims to avoid ambiguity and confusion to determine the truth as seen in the history of philosophy. This paper argues that Islamic philoshopy provides an alternative to tackle with crisis as a result of ambiguity that rooted in the contemporary philosophy.

Abstract

Pluralism is an appreciation of one’s profound awareness of difference. This realization would lead him to the next level of stability and away from violence. Pluralism is a term that can be applied to people of this nature in Indonesia, given their racial, cultural, and religious diversity. Balun village in the Lamongan District is one of the villages in Indonesia that is conscious of religious pluralism. The village is home to a variety of religious groups. Three religions coexist peacefully in the village, namely Islam, Christianity, and Hinduism. While the word pluralism originated in the west, the Prophet exemplified the concept in many hadiths, especisally concerning religious pluralism that can still be traced (takhrīj) to the facts. Thus, this study would be important to read due to its unique approach, which is based on hadith.

Abstract

Conflicts in the Islamic world are primarily caused by disagreements between scholars’ views and thoughts. This divergence of opinion stems from scholars’ interpretations of the Qur’an and Hadith, which serve as a guide to life and religion for Muslims. This condition has existed since the Prophet Muhammad’s demise, specifically during the time of the Companions. Until then, it occurred on a continuous basis until now. This divergence in thought and perception eventually results in different forms of religious polarization, with the ulama separated or divided into various classes. The Muslims were then separated and divided into sects as a result of this situation. As mentioned by Ibn al-Jawzī, the disputes that erupted in the Islamic world and eventually resulted in religious polarization arose as a result of divergent interpretations of religious scriptures, which were bolstered by a sense of community or group fanaticism. Additionally, unscrupulous scholars’ variations caused the ulama to break into two classes or attitudes. Among them are the ulama who really care for Islam. The second category is different scholars, or scholars who are more concerned with their own expertise and with the interests and benefits of their own community than with the interests and benefits of the general public.

Abstract

This paper analyzes al-Ghazālī’s thoughts, especially in the discussion of the categorization of scholars and the groupings of knowledge which he offers in the book Ihyā ‘Ulūm al-Dīn. As a scientist of Islamic Studies, alGhazālī was able to present this discussion in an interesting and profound way. He stated in his creation that scholars are divided into two. First is the counterfeit ulama called al-sū’. The second is the ulama who is true (hereafter). Likewise with science, al-Ghazālī divides knowledge globally into two things, namely knowledge that is fardu ‘ain and fardu kifayah. As an ulama who is an expert in all scientific fields who eventually pursues the field of Sufism, it can be seen how much he presents the book Ihyā ‘Ulūm al-Dīn with a distinctively Sufistic nuance. It does not seem patronizing and always interesting to read, especially for lovers of the world of Sufism. The Ihyā ‘Ulūm al-Dīn is divided into four parts. First, a quarter about Worship. Second, a quarter about habits. Third, a quarter about destruction. Fourth, a quarter about secrets/feelings. Even so, it does not rule out the possibility in this work, for insiders and outsiders to carry out further elaboration and various other intellectual activities, in order to present a more interesting work in the present and future.

Abstract

The thinking foundation of a movement is determined by the built ideology, one of the early foundations in a movement,the role of ideology is very important in shaping the characteristics and direction of a movement. Similar with the Indonesian Islamic Student Movement (PMII), ideologically, it is based on ahlussunnah wal jama’ah. The ideology of the PMII movement is viewed in the form of the Basic Values of Movement (NDP) which are affirmed in the concept of; monotheism, hablumminallah, hablum minannas, and hablum minal alam. The NDP is what shapes the characteristics of the student movement organization which is expected to be the answer to current problems. The NDP as a reference in the movement conforms the Islamic ummah guidelines, namely Al-quran and hadith, therefore, the essence of the guidelines is reflected in the Basic Values of Movement. The harmony of religious teachings and the ideology of the movement forms a tangent to the discussion of ecotheology. Ecotheology is present in a combination of two scientific clusters, namely ecology and theology, and is expected to provide scientific contributions in accordance with environmental theology, or the relationship between religious teachings and the environment.

Abstract

Human nature is a material object of the many developing sciences. This article will focuses on the discussion of human being in terms of existentialism which will be compared between western philosophy and Islamic philosophy. As a limitation, this paper will only discuss Jean-Paul Sartre and Gabriel Marcel from the west tradition and Mulla Sadra and Muhammad Iqbal from the Islamic tradition. This selection is based on the closeness of their thoughts so that comparisons can be made that are anthropocentric because other philosophers, especially in Islamic tradition, prioritized theological views. This paper finds out that the west and Islam tought tradition, human philosophy has different perspectives and thus has very different ideas. Western philosophy tends to depart from the view of humans as humans themselves or in other words their existence as humans. Meanwhile, Islamic philosophy talks more about human being starting from the view of their relationship with God, although in its development there was a shift towards anthropocentrism. However, the thoughts of the four figures above intersect on the aspect of human being in relation to others. The results of the discussion in this paper shows that it is understood that the western version of philosophical thinking about the relationship between humans and other people emphasizes the rationality and emotional aspects rather than the spiritualprophetic aspects as found in Islamic existentialism
