Abstract

General Background: Epistemology, as a core branch of philosophy, critically examines the nature, sources, and limits of knowledge. Specific Background: Within the Islamic intellectual tradition, epistemology encompasses distinct methodologies—tajribi, burhani, bayani, and ‘irfani—each rooted in different epistemic frameworks. Knowledge Gap: However, comprehensive analyses of how these methods are implemented within the context of Islamic education philosophy remain limited. Aims: This study aims to explore the application of Islamic epistemological methods in the study of Islamic educational philosophy. Results: Through qualitative descriptive library research, the study finds that the tajribi (empirical) method is utilized to understand physical realities, the burhani (rational) method to grasp metaphysical concepts, the bayani (textual-interpretative) method to extract meaning from sacred texts, and the ‘irfani (intuitive-spiritual) method to attain inner truths through spiritual practice. Novelty: The study synthesizes these diverse epistemological approaches and delineates their respective educational domains, offering an integrated framework for understanding Islamic knowledge acquisition. Implications: These findings contribute to the broader discourse on Islamic education by highlighting the multidimensional nature of knowledge in Islamic thought and advocating for a balanced pedagogical model that accommodates empirical, rational, textual, and spiritual dimensions. Highlights: Distinct epistemological methods reflect diverse paths to knowledge in Islam. Each method aligns with specific objects: material, rational, textual, or spiritual. Integration of these methods enriches Islamic educational philosophy. Keywords: Islamic Epistemology, Tajribi, Burhani, Bayani, ‘Irfani

Abstract

The utilization of waste as a substitute material for aggregate in paving blocks has become an effective and innovative option. One of the largest contributors to global plastic waste is Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) bottles and High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) bottle caps, both of which are types of plastic that can be used in paving mixtures due to their strength and easy availability. This research aims to examine the effects of using plastic bottle waste and bottle cap waste as aggregate substitutes on the mechanical properties of paving blocks, including impact testing and cost analysis. The results of this study show that PET variations perform better than HDPE. A 5% PET plastic variation produced the highest compressive strength of 22.32 MPa, while the lowest compressive strength was recorded with a 15% HDPE variation at 14.62 MPa. In addition to mechanical performance, paving blocks with PET variations are capable of reducing up to 2.45 kg of plastic bottles per 1 m².The utilization of waste as a substitute material for aggregate in paving blocks has become an effective and innovative option.
