Abstract

This study explores the theological and cultural dynamics of Islam in Java through the lens of Islamic enculturation as practiced by Walisongo, the nine saints who played a pivotal role in the Islamization of the region. Using a socio-theological framework, this study examines how Islamic teachings were not merely introduced but were harmonized with pre-existing Javanese cultural forms. The Walisongo adopted a syncretic and accommodative strategy, utilizing local traditions, such as wayang, gamelan, and traditional poetry, as mediums for daʿwah, thereby fostering a peaceful and holistic process of religious transformation in Indonesia. Their method was not confrontational but integrative, respecting local wisdom while gradually embedding Islamic values. This strategic adaptation ensured a more profound and lasting acceptance of Islam, shaping Javanese religiosity into a unique cultural expression that blended spirituality with aesthetic and communal dimensions. This study highlights that Walisongo’s approach to daʿwah exemplifies a model of inculturation that goes beyond mere tolerance; it embodies a theological vision of harmony between divine revelation and cultural identity. This article contributes to the contemporary discourse on religion and culture by demonstrating how Islamic theology can inform intercultural dialogue and religious transmission in pluralistic societies.

Abstract

The provision on Radd in Article 193 of Indonesia’s Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), which allocates residual inheritance to all fixed heirs (dzawī al-furūḍ), including spouses, presents a paradigmatic departure from the classical Islamic legal consensus that excludes marital partners from such redistribution. This article questions whether such deviation reflects a mere juridical anomaly or a more profound philosophical reconfiguration of justice within Islamic legal thought. Adopting a conceptual framework grounded in Paul Ricoeur’s hermeneutics and John Rawls’s theory of justice, this study treats the legal text not as a static norm but as an ethically mediated narrative shaped by historical consciousness and social context. Through Ricoeur’s notion of interpretive praxis and Rawls’s difference principle, the analysis demonstrates that Article 193 embodies a transformative form of distributive justice that affirms the moral worth and relational significance of all heirs, regardless of gender or bloodline. Rather than viewing the provision as a rupture from tradition, the article argues that it constitutes a creative appropriation of Islamic inheritance principles to meet the demands of ethical pluralism and familial equity in contemporary society. The study contributes an original philosophical reading of Islamic legal reform by reimagining law as an open text, one that negotiates between normative inheritance and evolving human contexts through the lens of ethical responsibility and intersubjective recognition.

Abstract

This article discusses the codification of classical Arabic whose main focus is to reveal Mohammad Abed al-Jabiri's critical epistemological thinking that the Arabic language codification process is not just an act of linguistic effort, but there are ideological elements that play an important role in shaping the way Muslims think. Al-Jabiri assesses the standards set by the Arabic language made by the Badawi community as the main reference because it is considered the most original and free from foreign influences. The epistimological impact of this action makes Arabic language that refers to the concrete, static, and non-historical Badawi world limits the capacity for abstraction, historicization, and rationalization in the Islamic intellectual tradition.  This research uses a qualitative approach with a library research method. Primary data is obtained from al-Jabiri's work Al-Turats wa al-Hadatsah, while secondary data includes studies related to language codification, Arabic linguistic history, and relevant journals. The results show that the codification of Arabic language makes stagnation, and the disconnection between language and complex modern reality because the codification refers to Badawi society which is reflected in the lexical structure, semantics, and social imagination of Arab society. This article directs that the importance of reorienting Arabic language that is inclusive of the renewal of Islamic reason and civilization by rebuilding a more progressive Arabic language.

Abstract

The issue of gender is a never-ending issue, especially related to the balance of gender roles in the reality of everyday life. The focus of this study is to analyze the balance of gender roles in the QS review. al-Nisā (4): 34 about Qawwām by involving a theory from a famous figure, namely Jacques Derrida's deconstruction theory. The data collection method used is qualitative, which typically requires analysis. Then the results of the discussion in this study are: First, that by using Derrida's deconstruction, it can provide color in a person's thinking style when understanding a text, the text will not be interpreted with only one meaning or even a final meaning, but will continue to produce new meanings that continue to be sustainable. Second, deconstruction does not justify or blame, but serves as a mediator by examining the meanings that emerge from reading the conditions of social reality. Third, Derrida's deconstruction can reveal that the term Qawwām does not immediately refer to male superiority, but rather to a situational division of roles. Thus, the relationship between husband and wife can be seen as a dynamic partnership that complements rather than hierarchizes.

Abstract

This article examines the role of the Shādhilīyyah Shiddqiyyah Sufi Order in the commemoration of the birth of Imam Ḥussain in Cairo, as an expression of Sufism and love for the Ahl al-Bayt within the Sunni Islamic tradition. Using a qualitative approach, this study employs library research and phenomenological hermeneutics to interpret spiritual practices, ritual symbolism, and the Sufi community's response to modern challenges. The findings reveal that the Shādhilīyyah Shiddqiyyah plays a central role in preserving the Maulid tradition through hadrah, awrād, and spiritually rich qasīdah recitations. Beyond the religious dimension, the celebration integrates socio-economic aspects such as seasonal markets (sūq al-mawlid) and mass food offerings (nazr) that enhance community solidarity. Despite criticism from reformist groups, the order demonstrates adaptive capacity by utilizing digital platforms and institutional engagement with religious authorities such as Al-Azhar. The article concludes that Sufi orders are not merely spiritual entities but also dynamic social actors in the landscape of contemporary Islam.

Abstract

This article examines the reconfiguration of Sufi teachings and economic ethos among followers of the Qadiriyah and Naqshabandiyah Orders (TQN) in Banten, Indonesia. Challenging Max Weber’s thesis in The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, which dismisses Islamic spirituality—particularly Sufism—as economically irrational and fatalistic, this study demonstrates how local Sufi practices can generate a productive and ethical economic habitus. Drawing on ethnographic data collected through interviews and participant observation, the study reveals how values such as zuhd (asceticism), sabr (patience), faqir (spiritual poverty), and tawakkul (trust in God) are reinterpreted by TQN followers not as a retreat from the world but as a form of disciplined spirituality that enhances resilience, responsibility, and ethical entrepreneurship. The findings contribute to a broader theoretical dialogue on religion and capitalism, offering an alternative model of economic rationality grounded in spiritual commitment and communal solidarity. This research not only critiques Weber’s Eurocentric assumptions but also expands the horizon of Islamic economic ethics by highlighting how Sufi traditions can cultivate inclusive and sustainable economic behaviors.

Abstract

This article departs from a fundamental problem in the study of Islamic philosophy: the tendency to interpret the Eastern Peripatetic tradition, especially as a continuation of Aristotelian rationalism, which is derivative. This view often obscures the reflective and creative process of Muslim philosophers in formulating the relationship between reason and revelation. Based on these issues, this research aims to reinterpret the Eastern Peripatetic tradition as a dynamic philosophical dialogue space between religion and philosophy within the framework of Islamic intellectuals. The study focuses on the thought of al-Kindī, al-Fārābī, and Ibn Sīnā, who systematically developed a rational framework for understanding reality while maintaining a focus on revelation. This research employs a philosophical-historical approach, examining the classical texts of Peripatetics and critical readings by later thinkers. Through this approach, the study traces the formation of epistemological synthesis in the development of Eastern Peripatetics with special attention to key concepts such as active intelligence, emanation, and hierarchical structures of existence. In addition, the study also considers how these concepts were re-understood and debated by figures such as al-Ghazālī, Ibn Rushd, and Suhrawardī as part of the internal dynamics of Islamic philosophy. The results of the study show that Eastern Peripatetics does not stop at adopting Aristotelian rationalism but cultivates it into a typical Islamic epistemology. For this reason, metaphysics and revelation are complementary. This transformation played an essential role in shaping the philosophical foundation of classical Islamic thought and opened up conceptual possibilities for formulating the relationship between science and religion in modern Islamic philosophy. Thus, this study confirms that the Eastern Peripatetic tradition is a dynamic and dialogical system of thought whose influence continues to shape the development of contemporary Islamic epistemology and educational philosophy.

Abstract

It is often said that "modern humans have lost moral values". It can be seen that the benchmark for whether a person can be said to be moral or not is from a pre-modern (traditional) point of view. This research tries to show that morals are part of the traditions and culture that are believed and agreed upon by humans in that group. However, it is permissible for other groups to have different moral agreements. This research is qualitative research whose aim is to reveal how moral principles are formed and whether they are dynamic or static considering the rapid development of the times. The results of this research found that morals are a product of tradition and culture which are dynamic, especially in the context of ethnic, religious and other diversity which should have values ​​that can unify diversity. Another important thing that was discovered was that in fact, in this diversity, all religions call for mutual respect and maintaining peace through good deeds while adhering to the values ​​of togetherness and harmony. In the end, these values ​​should always be instilled in every human being to behave and behave in society.

Abstract

This article examines Matthieu Ricard's concept of altruism and Ibn Miskawaih's Islamic ethics. The main issue discussed is how these two different philosophical traditions view altruism and whether the integration of the two can provide a more comprehensive understanding of universal moral values. The main research question is how the spiritual compassion emphasized by Ricard and the rational virtues proposed by Ibn Miskawaih can be synthesized into a whole framework of altruism. The method used is a comparative philosophical approach with the data analysis techniques applied in this study are interpretive descriptive analysis, analyzing primary suber and literature related to the discussion being studied and the ethical principles of the two thinkers to find similarities and differences. The findings of the study suggest that Ricard highlights enlightenment and universal happiness through compassion, while Ibn Miskawaih emphasizes happiness and rational virtue as the basis of moral behavior. This article introduces the concept of transcendental altruism, a synthesis that combines compassion with rational virtue, offering a holistic approach to the ethics of altruism that transcends cultural and religious boundaries. This perspective enriches the theoretical discourse on altruism while also providing practical implications for fostering moral universality in diverse societies. This study contributes to contemporary ethics by showing how cross-cultural philosophical dialogue can deepen our understanding of altruism as a fundamental value of humanity.

Abstract

This article explores the philosophical Sufism of Hamzah Fansuri by examining the internal coherence of his thought rather than treating its elements as isolated doctrines. The discussion focuses on three interrelated dimensions that structure his intellectual system: wujūdiyyah as an ontological foundation, the metaphysics of creation as a cosmological framework, and mystical taraqqī as the process of spiritual realization. Using a qualitative library-based method, this study analyzes Hamzah Fansuri’s prose and poetic writings alongside relevant contemporary scholarship through thematic content analysis. The findings suggest that Hamzah Fansuri consistently affirms God as the only Absolute Being, while the universe and humanity are understood as dependent manifestations of divine reality. Creation is not described as a detached, dualistic act, but as a graded process of manifestation (taʿayyun) that preserves divine transcendence. Within this framework, mystical taraqqī represents an inward transformation of human consciousness through the stages of sharīʿa, ṭarīqa, ḥaqīqa, and maʿrifa. This study argues that Hamzah Fansuri’s philosophical Sufism constitutes a systematic and coherent worldview. Interpreting debates on wujūdiyyah as epistemological differences rather than doctrinal conflicts allows for a more balanced understanding of his position within Southeast Asian Islamic thought.
