Abstract

The Palembang Sultanate's strategic position along trade routes, and its political stability fostered a dynamic intellectual climate that combined religious studies, Sufi traditions, and local literary creativity. This study aims to analyze the role of the Palembang Sultanate as a center of Islamic education and as a contributor to the development of Malay-Islamic literature during this formative period. The research employs a qualitative historical approach with textual and archival analysis of manuscripts, royal decrees, and scholarly treatises compiled by Palembang scholars. The findings indicate that the Sultanate's intellectual institutions, particularly the royal madrasahs and Sufi pondoks, served as important platforms for integrating Islamic jurisprudence, theology, and mystical knowledge into the region's cultural fabric. The resulting literary works, including didactic poetry, commentaries, and Sufi prose, reflect a synthesis between Arab-Islamic epistemology and local Malay expressions. This conclusion highlights that the Palembang Sultanate functioned not only as a political entity but also as a center of Islamic intellectual and literary transformation that significantly shaped regional religious identity.

Abstract

Islamic art and architecture represent a profound manifestation of the spiritual, cultural, and intellectual traditions of the Muslim world. Throughout history, artistic and architectural expressions in Islamic civilization have not only served aesthetic purposes but have also embodied theological principles and cultural identities. This study aims to analyze how theological concepts, cultural contexts, and aesthetic philosophies interact in shaping Islamic art and architecture across the Muslim world. The study employs a qualitative research design using an interdisciplinary analytical approach that integrates perspectives from Islamic studies, art history, cultural studies, and architectural theory. Data were collected through document analysis of architectural records, historical sources, and scholarly literature, followed by thematic interpretation and comparative analysis of selected Islamic architectural examples. The findings reveal that Islamic art and architecture consistently reflect theological concepts such as tawhid, harmony, and transcendence through geometric ornamentation, calligraphic decoration, and balanced spatial structures. Cultural diversity across regions contributes to stylistic variation while maintaining shared symbolic principles rooted in Islamic belief. The study concludes that Islamic art and architecture function as integrated expressions of theology, culture, and aesthetics, illustrating how religious worldview and cultural identity shape artistic creativity within the Muslim world.

Abstract

This study explores the comparative approaches to epistemology and ethics within Islamic philosophy and Western thought. Despite centuries of intellectual exchange, the two traditions are often studied in isolation, with minimal attention given to their intersections. Islamic philosophy emphasizes the integration of divine revelation and reason in acquiring knowledge, whereas Western thought traditionally prioritizes empirical evidence and rationalism. In ethics, both traditions share concerns regarding virtue and moral conduct but diverge in their foundations, with Islam grounding ethics in divine will and Western thought emphasizing human reason. The objective of this research is to compare these philosophical traditions, identifying both their points of convergence and divergence in epistemology and ethics. A qualitative research design is employed, focusing on textual analysis of key philosophical works from both traditions, including those of Avicenna, Al-Ghazali, Ibn Rushd, Plato, Aristotle, Kant, and Mill. The findings reveal significant differences in how each tradition understands the nature of knowledge and morality, yet also highlight areas of overlap, particularly in virtue ethics. This study contributes to the broader discourse by promoting a comparative framework for understanding the similarities and differences between Islamic and Western thought. It concludes by emphasizing the potential for cross-traditional dialogue to enrich contemporary philosophical inquiry.

Abstract

The emergence of Indonesian Muslim women scholars (ulama perempuan) marks a significant transformation in the contemporary Islamic legal discourse on gender and family law. Historically, fatwas have been predominantly issued by male scholars, often reflecting patriarchal interpretations of Islamic jurisprudence. This study aims to examine how ulama perempuan contribute to the development of progressive fatwas that promote gender justice, human dignity, and women’s rights within the framework of Islamic law. The research employs a qualitative descriptive design using content analysis of fatwas, interviews with members of Kongres Ulama Perempuan Indonesia (KUPI), and field observations of community-based legal education programs. The findings reveal that ulama perempuan reinterpret classical texts through a contextual and maqasid al-shariah approach, emphasizing principles of equality, compassion, and social welfare. Their fatwas address critical issues such as child marriage, domestic violence, reproductive rights, and environmental justice, demonstrating the dynamic interplay between religious authority and social advocacy. The study concludes that the intellectual and moral authority of ulama perempuan strengthens the democratization of Islamic jurisprudence in Indonesia and serves as a model for inclusive, gender-responsive Islamic scholarship globally.

Abstract

Islamic mysticism and spirituality have long constituted a central dimension of Muslim religious life, with Sufism serving as a primary vehicle for cultivating inner piety, ethical refinement, and experiential knowledge of the Divine. In contemporary Muslim societies shaped by modernization, globalization, and shifting religious expressions, the relevance and function of Sufism continue to be debated. This study aims to analyze the role of Sufism in modern Muslim society by examining its spiritual, ethical, and social significance within contemporary contexts. The research employed a qualitative interpretive design, drawing on semi-structured interviews, textual analysis of contemporary Sufi discourses, and observational data from selected Sufi communities. Data were analyzed thematically to identify recurring patterns related to spirituality, social engagement, and adaptation to modern life. The findings reveal that Sufism remains a meaningful and adaptive form of Islamic spirituality, contributing to personal spiritual fulfillment, ethical orientation, and social cohesion. Engagement with Sufi practices was associated with inner discipline, emotional balance, and a heightened sense of moral responsibility. The study concludes that Sufism functions as a dynamic spiritual resource rather than a residual tradition, offering frameworks for meaning-making and ethical engagement in modern Muslim society.

Abstract

Islam in Southeast Asia has developed through continuous engagement with diverse local cultures, producing distinctive religious expressions that reflect both doctrinal continuity and contextual adaptation. Debates surrounding orthodoxy, reform, and cultural legitimacy have intensified in recent decades, highlighting the need for a systematic examination of how Islamic practices are negotiated within plural socio-cultural settings. This study aims to analyze the patterns of interaction between Islamic teachings and local traditions in selected Southeast Asian communities and to identify the mechanisms through which accommodation, contestation, and reinterpretation occur. A multi-site comparative design was employed, integrating quantitative surveys (N = 54), semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis across Indonesia, Malaysia, and southern Thailand. Inferential statistical tests and thematic coding were used to examine institutional, generational, and interpretive variations. The findings reveal a dominant pattern of contextualized orthodoxy in which local customs are selectively integrated through scriptural reasoning and institutional mediation. Significant differences were identified between traditionalist and reform-oriented groups, indicating the influence of educational affiliation and global religious networks. The study concludes that Islamic practice in Southeast Asia represents a dynamic process of negotiated continuity rather than binary opposition between religion and culture.

Abstract

movements, offering foundational principles on justice, equity, and social responsibility. In the contemporary context, Islamic principles have been integrated into modern social movements advocating for human rights, gender equality, and political reform, suggesting a bridge between religious tradition and progressive social reform. This intersection requires closer examination to understand the evolving role of Islamic thought in shaping these movements. This study aims to explore the impact of Islamic thought on modern social movements and analyze how it bridges tradition with reform. It seeks to understand how Islamic principles guide contemporary social activism and contribute to global movements for justice and equality. A mixed-methods approach was utilized, combining qualitative interviews with activists, scholars, and community leaders, along with document analysis of Islamic reformist texts and social movement manifestos. Data were analyzed thematically to identify key Islamic values influencing contemporary movements. The study finds that justice, equity, and social welfare are central Islamic principles driving social movements. These principles align closely with the goals of modern social activism, including gender rights and political reform. The integration of Islamic thought provides moral legitimacy and strategic guidance for these movements. Islamic thought plays a significant and dynamic role in modern social movements by offering a framework that bridges religious tradition with contemporary calls for reform.

Abstract

Justice constitutes a central principle in the Qur’anic worldview, shaping both ethical conduct and legal reasoning within Islamic thought. Increasing complexity of contemporary legal and social contexts has renewed scholarly interest in how Qur’anic justice can be understood and applied in modern Islamic legal systems. This study aims to examine the conceptual structure of justice in the Qur’an and analyze its application within classical and contemporary Islamic legal thought. A qualitative interpretive design was employed, integrating thematic exegesis of Qur’anic verses with comparative analysis of major Islamic legal schools and contemporary scholarship. Results indicate that Qur’anic justice is articulated through interconnected concepts such as ?adl, qis?, and m?z?n, reflecting moral, procedural, and systemic dimensions. Findings further reveal that Islamic legal traditions operationalize these principles through diverse methodologies, enabling both continuity and adaptability. Contemporary interpretations demonstrate increased emphasis on social justice, human rights, and contextual application. This study concludes that the Qur’anic conception of justice provides a comprehensive and flexible framework capable of guiding Islamic legal thought across different historical and social contexts.

Abstract

The historical narrative of Western intellectual development often obscures the profound contributions of Islamic philosophy, frequently reducing the Islamic Golden Age to a mere preservation period for Hellenistic thought. This research aims to re-evaluate the specific mechanisms and depth of Islamic influence on the Western intellectual tradition, specifically during the Scholastic revolution. A qualitative historical-philosophical design was employed, utilizing hermeneutic analysis and diachronic mapping of primary Arabic texts and their subsequent Latin translations. Findings reveal that Muslim polymaths like Ibn Sina and Ibn Rushd were not passive conduits but original innovators who provided the metaphysical and logical scaffolding for Western Scholasticism. The study identifies a systematic “transcultural synthesis” where Islamic rationalism fundamentally restructured European epistemology, particularly regarding the distinction between essence and existence and the development of empirical methodologies. This research concludes that the Western philosophical canon is a hybrid construct deeply rooted in Islamic intellectual labor, necessitating a decolonized approach to the history of ideas. Recognizing this shared heritage challenges Eurocentric biases and promotes a more inclusive understanding of global human progress.

Abstract

The role of women in Islamic thought has been a topic of significant debate, particularly regarding their agency and power dynamics in the Quran. Historically, Islamic interpretations have often placed women in subordinate roles, with their agency constrained within specific boundaries. This research explores how gender roles, power relations, and women’s agency are portrayed in the Quran, analyzing both classical and contemporary feminist interpretations. The study aims to provide a nuanced understanding of how these interpretations have evolved and the potential implications for gender equality within Islamic thought. A qualitative approach was employed, focusing on textual analysis of selected Quranic verses, classical exegeses, and feminist readings. Data were gathered from prominent Islamic scholars and feminist scholars to compare and contrast the different interpretations of women’s roles in the Quran. The findings indicate a significant shift from traditional patriarchal interpretations towards feminist readings that emphasize gender equality and women’s empowerment. This research highlights the evolving nature of Quranic exegesis, where feminist scholars offer new insights into women’s agency and leadership. The study concludes that feminist interpretations of the Quran provide a more inclusive understanding of women’s roles, offering a foundation for advocating gender equality in contemporary Islamic discourse.
