Abstract

This article aims to analyze Mehdi Hairi Yazdi’s contribution in responding to contemporary epistemological contestation through the idea of ‘ilm ḥuḍūrī. The main problem in modern epistemology lies in the relationship between the subject and object of knowledge, which tends to be dualistic in the Western epistemological tradition. Hairi Yazdi offers ‘ilm ḥuḍūrī as an alternative solution in modern epistemology. This research is a literature study using a qualitative method, and its data sources are from Mehdi Hairi Yazdi’s works and relevant research. The research findings show that Hairi Yazdi’s idea of ‘ilm ḥuḍūrī cannot only bridge the gap between rationalism and empiricism but provide a strong epistemological basis for the validity of mystical experiences. Furthermore, this idea offers a new perspective in studying Islamic philosophy. It contributes to the development of inclusive knowledge in facing the challenges of contemporary epistemology. Thus, this study emphasizes the importance of ‘ilm ḥuḍūrī as an alternative paradigm that enriches contemporary epistemological discourse.

Abstract

Islamic websites are one form of new media that has attracted the attention of the Muslim community in Indonesia in the last few decades. Islamic websites contain Islamic beliefs, values, and traditions that are needed by people in the digital era. Therefore, this study aims to measure and map internet access behavior, especially access to Islamic websites in the Jabodetabek area and Surabaya City. This study uses a quantitative approach, collecting data through face-to-face interviews with 401 respondents. The results of this study indicate that regarding internet usage behavior, 40.2% of respondents fall into the Addicted User category, and 59.6% fall into the Medium User and Heavy User categories. The Islamic News Site is considered the most influential, trusted, and complete Islamic news media. Then, the National Islamic News, Islamic Trends, and Prayer columns are the three most commonly accessed columns by respondents on almost all Islamic websites.

Abstract

The spiritual crisis of modern society arises from the loss of divine vision caused by modern lifestyles. Sufism, as an alternative, offers an approach to address this issue. This study analyzes the concept of Sufism by Al-Jīlānī and its relevance in dealing with the spiritual crisis. Using a qualitative method with a literature study approach, this research collects data through literature review and documentation. The findings show that Sufism by ‘Abd al-Qādir al-Jīlānī consists of stages including repentance, asceticism, piety, trust in God, patience, contentment, gratitude, poverty, sincerity, love, and knowledge of God. These stages provide solutions to the spiritual crisis and function as self-control in facing the negative influences of modern society. The application of ‘Abd al-Qādir al-Jīlānī’s concept of Sufism is relevant as a response to three clusters of issues in contemporary society: spiritual, psychological, and social. This study also highlights the need for further research to evaluate the effectiveness of Sufism in addressing the spiritual crisis. The unique contribution of this research is its emphasis on the relevance of the Sufi concept in the context of modern society and its potential application to improve the fragmented spiritual condition.

Abstract

This article examines the Facebook-based educational debate between Sufi scholar Ulil Abshar Abdalla and Salafi scholar Yazid bin Abdul Qadir Jawas. Our research addresses three main questions: What educational philosophies do Sufis use to defend against Salafi attacks? What educational approach does Salafis use to refute Sufi’s critiques? How does this theological conflict affect the daily religious practices of Indonesian Muslims? Using Facebook Analytics, this study analyzes recordings from the online Ngaji Ihya and Ngaji Rodja groups. The analysis comprises the coding of images and non-text data, a narrative analysis of social media content, and an examination of audience behaviour. Our research indicates Ulil Abshar Abdalla’s Sufism is a culturally-based approach to overcoming Islamic sectarian divisions within Indonesia. Yazid bin Abdul Qadir Jawas’s Salafist ideology, rooted in textual fiqh, is used to undermine Indonesia’s moderate Islamic voices. The conflict between the two groups stems from disagreements about faith, rituals, democracy, and customs. This theological conflict has resulted in both inclusive and exclusive religious practices. Facebook has become a battleground for competing Sufi and Salafi Islamic viewpoints. Sufism’s defensive position is characterized by its inclusivity and multiple perspectives, unlike salafism’s confrontational and singular view.

Abstract

This article critically examines the commodification of Ramadan fasting rituals through a Marxist perspective. Situated within the discourse of Marxist social critique, it investigates how capitalism transforms religious practices into commercialized spectacles and ideological instruments. Drawing upon a conceptual and theoretical approach through critical literature review, this study synthesizes classical Marxist theories from Marx and Engels, as well as neo-Marxist frameworks including Gramsci’s concept of hegemony, the Frankfurt School’s critique of commodification, and Althusser’s theory of ideological state apparatuses. The analysis engages with empirical illustrations such as advertising strategies, shifting consumption patterns during Ramadan, and state-sponsored religious campaigns. This study is conceptual and does not rely on original field data, but instead critically analyzes existing literature and socio-cultural phenomena. The findings reveal the dual function of Ramadan within capitalist society: as a cultural critique of consumerism grounded in simplicity, empathy, and social solidarity, and simultaneously as a tool co-opted to reinforce consumerism, class stratification, and hegemonic ideology. By highlighting how Ramadan rituals subvert and support capitalist structures, this paper contributes to scholarly discourse on the intersection of religion, ideology, and political economy in contemporary Muslim societies.

Abstract

This study examines the tafsir studies by Habib and Syarifah on YouTube with Norman Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis. The findings of discourse interpretation related to the production, dissemination, and consumption of discourse on Habib and Syarifah on social media explain that Habib Novel Alaydrus and Syarifah Halimah Halaydrus are YouTuber da’i who utilize the routine of studying majlis taklim, in contrast to Habib Ja’far’s YouTube content. The tafsir approach in this study emphasizes social and communal values (ādāb ijtimā‘ī) through a thematic tafsir method (mauḍū‘ī). Interestingly, Habib Novel tends to approach Tafsir through the stories of the prophets (qiṣṣatu al-anbiyā’). At the same time, Habib Ja’far relies on hadith narration (tafsīr bi al-riwāyah), and Halimah Alaydrus enhances the Tafsir with critical reasoning (tafsīr bi al-ra’yi). Habib Novel’s rhetorical approach is founded on an interpretative-textualist-dogmatic paradigm. Meanwhile, Habib Ja’far adheres to an interpretative-intertextualist critical paradigm, and Halimah Alaydrus employs an interpretative-textualist-critical paradigm. At the social context level, the focus shifts to fatalistic ideology, inclusive-dialogical approaches, and critical feminism. These significant findings can be utilized to advance tafsir studies within the context of a digital media society.
