Abstract

This paper critically examines Margaret Gilbert's plural subject theory through the objective of human rights and the concept of the common good. Gilbert's plural subject theory offers a thrilling account of collective agency grounded in joint commitment, explaining how individuals form unified agents capable of coordinated action and shared responsibility. However, despite its analytical strength, the theory remains normatively limited in addressing the moral status of non-members and the principle of universal human equality. This study adopts a conceptual and normative philosophical methodology to develop a human rights-based critique of plural subject theory. It argues that while joint commitments smooth social cohesion and collective identity. They may also create exclusionary and oppressive outcomes when not in line with universal ethical principles. To address these limitations, the paper incorporates insights from Islamic political philosophy, particularly the concepts of maslahah (public welfare), adl (justice), shura (consultation), and ummah (community), to construct a more comprehensive and ethically grounded conception of the common good. By joining the plural subject theory with human rights and cross-civilizational ethical contexts, the study proposes a revised normative model of collective agency in which human rights are understood as collectively recognised moral obligations. This model provides a more comprehensive account of collective action united with universal human dignity and offers a stronger foundation for evaluating political, social, and institutional arrangements.

Abstract

This article examines the educational leadership of Rahmah El Yunusiyah in colonial Indonesia, with particular attention to her contribution to Muslim women’s education in Southeast Asia. Using a historical qualitative method based on published historical studies, documentary sources, and interpretive analysis, the study explores how Rahmah El Yunusiyah developed Diniyah Puteri as an alternative educational institution for girls under colonial rule. The findings show that her leadership was expressed through three main strategies: building an institution outside colonial educational priorities, legitimizing women’s education through Islamic values, and combining religious instruction with modern pedagogical practices. These strategies enabled Rahmah not only to challenge colonial and patriarchal restrictions at the local level, but also to offer a model of Muslim women’s education that gained wider recognition in the Malay-Indonesian world. Her contribution to Southeast Asia lies in demonstrating that Islamic schooling for girls could become a legitimate space for women’s intellectual formation, social participation, and leadership development. The study argues that Rahmah El Yunusiyah represents a non-Western model of educational leadership rooted in faith, social reform, and women’s empowerment. This case contributes to broader discussions on women’s leadership, Islamic education, and the history of education in colonial Asia.

Abstract

This study examines the strategies employed by Prophet Muhammad to respond to hostility, misrepresentation, and social exclusion, and explores their relevance for addressing Islamophobia in contemporary societies. The research investigates how attitudes comparable to Islamophobia were managed during the Meccan and Medinan periods and identifies historically grounded lessons applicable to modern pluralistic contexts. Using a qualitative historical approach, the study analyzes primary Islamic sources including the Qur’an, Hadith literature, and classical Sirah works, supported by contemporary academic scholarship. The findings reveal that the Prophet’s responses to fear-driven hostility were structured around ethical patience, nonviolent engagement, dialogue, and community-centered responsibility. In the Meccan period, moral restraint and ethical conduct functioned as strategies for maintaining legitimacy under conditions of persecution. In the Medinan period, principles of pluralism, inclusive governance, and shared civic responsibility were institutionalized to manage diversity and social cohesion. The study argues that these strategies form a coherent framework for addressing prejudice and exclusion. By interpreting Prophetic experience through an analytical lens, this article contributes to contemporary Islamophobia scholarship and offers ethically grounded insights for promoting coexistence and social harmony in modern multicultural societies.

Abstract

In an era of escalating anti-Islamic sentiments, the absence of vocal engagement from Muslim intellectuals unintentionally facilitates recruitment efforts of extremists targeting Muslim youth. Extremist groups exploit a narrative positioning themselves as the sole defenders of Islam, distorting its essence and fuelling further radicalisation. Despite the potential for religions to foster peace, the silence of Muslim intellectuals creates a void exploited by extremist groups, hindering peace efforts within Islam. This study explores the reasons behind this silence and emphasises the critical role of Muslim intellectuals in promoting peace within their religion. Through an extrapolation analysis of existing data and literature, this study identifies challenges and perceptions of tolerance in Islam, the role of religion and religious figures in peace-making, and strategies for countering misconceptions about the rejection of violence by Islam. The findings reveal a lack of confidence among Muslim intellectuals, intensified by pervasive Islamophobia and dilemmas in advocating for peace amidst political polarisation. Therefore, urgent action is needed to empower Muslim intellectuals in supporting the message of peace and countering extremist narratives within Islam, thereby contributing to global peace efforts.

Abstract

This study examines the epistemological model of knowledge integration developed by Muslim scholars during the Islamic Golden Age and its contribution to global scientific development. Previous studies on Islamic science have largely focused on descriptive-historical narratives and have not sufficiently explored the integration of revelation, rationality, and empirical inquiry within Islamic scientific traditions. In addition, many historiographical accounts continue to portray Muslim scholars primarily as transmitters of Greek knowledge within a Eurocentric framework. This study employs a qualitative library research approach using intellectual history as its analytical framework. Data were collected from classical Muslim scientific works, historical manuscripts, and contemporary historiographical studies and analyzed through thematic content analysis and critical historiographical interpretation. The findings reveal that scientific development in the Islamic world involved not only the preservation of earlier intellectual traditions but also epistemological reconstruction and methodological innovation. Muslim scholars developed a holistic scientific paradigm integrating revelation, rational reasoning, and empirical observation, contributing significantly to advancements in mathematics, medicine, astronomy, optics, and philosophy. Furthermore, the transmission of Islamic scientific traditions to Europe occurred through complex processes involving translation movements, educational institutions, intercultural exchanges, and intellectual mobility across civilizations.

Abstract

The escalation of organized banditry in northwestern Nigeria has exposed the limitations of conventional, federal-led security strategies, necessitating alternative, localized governance models. This study undertakes a critical evaluation of the operational roles of the Katsina State Community Security Watch Corps (KSCSWC) through an Islamic ethical and jurisprudential lens, addressing a significant gap in scholarly discourse by integrating faith-based principles into the analysis of grassroots security initiatives. The primary objective is to ascertain the compatibility of the Corps’ operational modalities with core Islamic tenets of public safety and communal welfare. Adopting a qualitative research methodology, the study combines analytical inquiry into classical Islamic jurisprudence with empirical fieldwork consisting of forty semi-structured interviews and direct observation in Katsina State. The data collected was subjected to thematic analysis. The findings reveal that the KSCSWC’s operational successes in intelligence gathering, neutralizing criminal elements, and deterring crime are deeply aligned with Islamic principles of communal security (ḥirāsah and ribāṭ). These interventions have led to tangible improvements in public safety, facilitating a revitalization of local economies, agriculture, and education. The paper concludes that anchoring local security frameworks within regional religious ethics substantially augments community cooperation and operational legitimacy. It recommends expanding the Corps' mandate to include offensive operations, optimizing rural deployment, and institutionalizing ethical training.

Abstract

India is recognized as one of the earliest centers for the formation and flourishing of medical knowledge in the ancient world. This study, employing a library-based approach with a descriptive-analytical methodology, investigates the scientific interactions between Iran and India, with a specific emphasis on the role of Gundishapur in transmitting Indian medical heritage to the Islamic world. The findings indicate that Indian medical knowledge, particularly from the Sasanid era, entered the scientific sphere of Iran via Gundishapur. Here, it either integrated with or influenced existing medical schools. Indian physicians possessed significant expertise and experience in areas such as psychological medicine, acupuncture, and herbal medicine. This knowledge, through connections with Gundishapur, subsequently influenced medicine during the Islamic period. Furthermore, with the expansion of Islam and the conquest of India, certain Indian medical ideas and teachings found their way into the courts of the Abbasid Caliphs, and a number of Indian physicians served as medical advisors to the Caliphs. In light of the Translation Movement and the Abbasids’ attention to medical sciences, several Sanskrit and Pahlavi texts were translated into Arabic. Consequently, Gundishapur served as a crucial intermediary, facilitating the transmission and development of a segment of Indian medical knowledge within Islamic civilization.

Abstract

This article aims to elaborate on the views of Islamic law on human rights through the deductive methodologies. The overall idea of this article is to take the Islamic worldview as a background and cite relevant contents such as the Qur’ānic verses, the Sunnah  of the Prophet Muḥammad (peace be upon him ) and his Companions (may Allāh’s pleasure on them), as well as to study the topic through understanding contents generated during the development of Islamic jurisprudence (7th-10 century AD.), in order to truly reflect human rights under the justice of Islam, that is, applying the metaphysics and physics of Islamic teachings as the basic theory to construct a harmonious human rights system, where the rights and obligations of multiple religions, races, and cultures can certainly coexist in any society of any state. However, for the theory and practice of human rights, this article not only reflects on the decline of Islamic civilization and the subsequent consequences of the Muslim world being controlled and dominated by various colonial forces, but also conducts self-criticism.Through calfuly and deeply study, it can be concluded that human rights under the Islamic legal system are not only a detailed and wide-ranging framework, but also a network of interconnected and complementary rights and obligations, becase under the Islamic legal system, the emphasis on human rights is seen as an essential component of a complete cosmic system.

Abstract

Despite extensive studies on Islamization, gambus traditions, and musical modernization in Indonesia, limited attention has been given to the integrated historical and ethnomusicological process through which gambus transformed into the Lampung Pesisir solo guitar within the socio-cultural context of the Lampung Saibatin community. This study addresses this gap by examining the transformation of gambus into Lampung Pesisir solo guitar through the interconnected processes of Islamization, cultural adaptation, and modernization. Using a descriptive qualitative approach grounded in ethnomusicological inquiry, data were collected through literature review, participatory observation, in-depth interviews with seven informants, and documentation conducted between 2018 and 2025 in coastal Lampung. The findings reveal that gambus was introduced through Islamic missionary networks and subsequently localized into gambus lunik before undergoing further transformation into gitar tunggal as a creative response to modernization and weakening intergenerational transmission. Rather than representing cultural decline, the emergence of Lampung solo guitar demonstrates a process of adaptive continuity in which Islamic values, communal ethics, and local identity were sustained through changing musical forms. The novelty of this study lies in integrating historical and ethnomusicological perspectives within a layered transformation model (gambus–gambus lunik–solo guitar), while theoretically contributing to discussions of musical creolization and cultural acculturation by showing that modernization may function not only as disruption but also as a mechanism of cultural revitalization and continuity.
