Abstract

Kalender lokal muncul dari respons dalam tradisi dan kearifan lokal dalam kegiatan dari msayarakat yang berada disuatu daerah. Dalam perspektif Islam, kalender lokal dan kalender Islam bisa saling bekerja sama dalam kebutuhan dan kehidupan sehari-hari, setiap suatu neagara memiliki kemampuan dalam hal ikatan antara lokal dan Islam ini. Kalender lokal pada zaman modern masih hidup keberadaan dengan bukti dari perilaku masyarakat yang memiliki pemikiran secara tradisional begitu juga dengan kalender-kalender yang mereka anut. Dengan adanya kalender mereka bisa memanfaatkan penentuan hari-hari yang baik bagi mereka melaksanakan segala aktifitas apapun dan musibah yang mereka harus waspada. Kalender Pranata Mangsa merupakan kalender yang berdasarkan campuran dari fenomena alam dan cocok dalam kegiatan pertanian.[1] Selama ribuan tahun manusia telah mengingat pola musim, perbedaan suasana cuaca, dan fenomena alam. Pada saat itu, nenek moyang mereka telah membuat kalender tahunan, namun tidak dengan sistem penanggalan seperti kalender Masehi maupun Hijriah.[2] Kalender yang berdasarkan dengan peristiwa-peristiwa alam, peran astronomis terhadap kalender Pranata Mangsa ini sangat signifikan, peran tersebut seperti membaca keadaan bintang-bintang yang berada di langit atau dalam Kamus Bausastra diartikan sebagai “Maujud ing langit ing wayah wengi katon pating kerlip” yang artinya, bintang-bintang yang muncul di malam hari terlihat kelap-kelip. Pengaruh bulan purnama juga sinkronisasi terhadap pasang surut air laut dan bermanfaat untuk para nelayan mengetahui situasi tersebut. Peran dari klimatologi terhadap kalender Pranata Mangsa sangat berpengaruh terhadap perubahan-perubahan musim, dengan tujuan untuk memprediksi dan memahami perubahan musim yang akan di hadapi selanjutnya. Namun, kalender Pranata Mangsa cenderung kurang relatif dalam kehidupan masyarakat pada masa kini. Sebab dominan dari masyarakat telah menganggap kalender ini telah kuno dan usang dalam kegiatan bercocok tanam tersebut.

Abstract

Prophet Idris was the first man to write Falak with Qalam and taught astrology. Prophet Idris pbuh had a life that was still contemporaneous with prophet Adam as. In addition, the explanation of the Prophet Idris pbuh found in the earlier books up to the Qur'an. As for the books that explain about the Prophet Idris pbuh are Zabur, the Torah, the Gospels and the Qur'an. Over time, the Bible found in the Jewish teachings was united with the teachings of the Christian gospel so that it was called the Bible. Bible consists of the Old Testament which contains the Torah and the New Testament which contains the canonical gospel. Basically, the Qur'an does not directly explain the descendants or nasab of the Prophet Idris pbuh. The explanation of the nasab of the Prophet Idris is explained by the Torah, the Gospels and the Bible with reference to the name Enoch. This is because Idris' name in Hebrew is Enoch. Therefore, to get an explanation of the Prophet Idris, we can refer to the books, namely the Torah, the Gospels and the Bible.

Abstract

Several historic mosques, including one located in Jember Regency, exhibit qibla orientations that deviate from the ideal direction. This study aims to analyze the alignment between the architectural orientation and the qibla direction of historic mosques in Jember Regency. Data were obtained through field research methods, including direct observation, precise measurement, and systematic documentation. The architectural orientation and qibla direction of historic mosques in Jember Regency, based on data from the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia’s SIMAS platform and measurements using Google Maps, show varying values in both orientation and deviation. Similar variations were also observed when using the Mizwala instrument. The alignment between the architectural orientation and the qibla direction of historic mosques in Jember Regency, as recorded in the SIMAS database of the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia, indicates a consistent correspondence between the two. It is recommended that the Ministry of Religious Affairs or relevant institutions regularly update the data to ensure that the qibla direction information and related records in SIMAS accurately reflect current field conditions.

Abstract

This article analyzes the classification and correlation between the longitudes of perigee and apogee with crescent moon visibility to understand the influence of these factors on the determination of the beginning of the lunar month. Primary data sources were obtained from calculated classifications of crescent moon visibility based on the longitudes of perigee and apogee from the years 1300H to 1600H for three locations: Sabang, Surabaya, and Merauke. Secondary data were sourced from Microsoft Excel. Data collection was conducted through documentation by studying the books Lunar Tables and Programs from 4000 B.C. to A.D. 8000 and Astronomical Algorithms, followed by calculations using the Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) application. The data analysis technique employed was quantitative descriptive analysis. The results reveal a cyclical pattern between the longitudes of perigee and apogee and the maximum elongation of crescent moon visibility in Sabang, Surabaya, and Merauke. Within the perigee longitude range (15°–345°), the highest maximum elongations were recorded: 12.12° in Sabang, 11.33° in Surabaya, and 11.56° in Merauke, which then declined as they approached the apogee longitude range (165°–195°). The maximum elongation increased again as it moved away from apogee, forming a recurring cycle between perigee and apogee. However, correlation results show no significant relationship between crescent moon visibility and the longitudes of perigee and apogee, as indicated by the low R-square values (0.0005 and 0.0011, respectively). These findings suggest that the longitudes of perigee and apogee are not reliable parameters for determining crescent moon visibility.

Abstract

East Java Province has diverse geographical conditions and several areas with low levels of light pollution, making it a potential location for the construction of an observatory. This study aims to map these potential areas using ArcGIS software. The research is a library research with a qualitative descriptive approach. The data used include light pollution data from the Light Pollution Maps (LPM) website, wind speed and cloud data from the Weather Spark website, elevation data from Google Earth, and topographic data from the Digital Elevation Model (DEM). Data collection was carried out through literature study and then analyzed using a descriptive method to identify areas that meet the criteria for observatory development. The results show that East Java has varied elevation levels and several regions with low light pollution. Based on the analysis, three main locations were identified as potential sites for observatory construction: Bromo National Park in Lumajang Regency, Ijen National Park in Bondowoso Regency, and Meru Betiri National Park in Jember Regency. These three locations meet the ideal criteria for an observatory, such as sufficient elevation, minimal light pollution, sparse settlements, and relatively stable climatic conditions.
