Abstract

Sharia and conventional business management system are often become a parameter in gaining profit and managing the risk faced by the entrepreneurs. This research aims to determine the comparison of profit and risk obtained by the property entrepreneurs in conducting their business when they use conventional or sharia system. This research is qualitative descriptive analysis. The variables that would be investigated are the profit obtained by the property business owner and the risks in conducting this business when the business owner uses sharia and conventional system in the capital investment or the buying and selling process of a certain property unit. The data was collected through an interview and documents. The article shows that conventional and sharia are a concept or system that generally used by the entrepreneurs in conducting their business to obtain the profit and face the risks. Both of the systems have advantages and disadvantages. This article further argues that sharia system gives a higher profit and fewer risks rather than the conventional system. It is because in the sharia system, entrepreneurs or costumers are not concerned about the burden of the interest and fines of the debt from a financing institution. Although there are risks considered such as bad credit and longtime cash flow, the profit obtained through the sharia system is higher than the conventional one.

Abstract

This paper investigates the dialectics between “political legitimacy” and “social fabric of society”, as it develops in the Imamite-Shiite Qur’anic commentaries on Qur’anic verse 16: 90. It reveals the transformation and development of Imamite-Shiite exegesis pertaining to Q. 16: 90, ranging from classical to modern. It takes into a closer look into seven Qur’anic commentaries which may serve as examples of different typologies within Imamite-Shiite exegetical tradition. It argues that the Imamite-Shiite interpretation on this verse moves between these two poles (political legitimacy and social fabric of society) most notably due to the religious and political circumstances of the exegetes. From these Quranic commentaries, one may also notice the division and ecumenism between Sunnism and Shiism. This paper underlines a colourful nuance of Shiite exegesis and denies the simplified belief that Shiite exegesis is sectarian.

Abstract

The number of Muslims in the United States is increasing from year to year as a result of the increasing number of immigrants from Muslim countries who come to work and continue their education as well as the increasing number of Muslims. One of the problems faced by the Muslim community in America today is Islamophobia such as bad narratives, discrimination, and violence against Muslims and their property. This study will examine the role of the Muslim community in America in dealing with the phenomenon of Islamophobia by explaining its strategy through the concept of Non-Governmental Organizations. The data used in this study is literature collected online from websites of Islamic groups in the United States. The results of this study showed that Islamic groups have taken many ways to deal with Islamophobia in this country, namely through political and legal advocacy, media relations, education, and campaigns to garner support and introduce Islam in American society.

Abstract

The Hanbalite school, well-known as a traditional school of Islamic law, played important role in theological disscourses in Islamic history. The fact, however, fails to be paid enough attention because of prevalent knowledge among Islamic society that the Hanbalite is only and a school of Islamic law. The Hanbalite theology is frequently abandoned in Islamic scholarship, although several researches have tried to reveal them. This article is aimed to extend previous researche of the Hanbalite theology through the description of its creeds and the elaboration of theological polemics between the Hanbalites and their adversaries. This article employs the history of idea by analyzing references written by Hanbalite scholars and other related sources. The references are collected and categorized according to the need of topics and then interpreted to provide readers with overall picture of the Hanbalite theology and their polemics along history. The Hanbalites creeds are based on textual understanding on Quranic texts and prophetic traditions. The creeds are underpinned by the idea that the Quran is not created and Quranic verses on God’s attributes should be understood textually. The idea led Hanbalite scholars to do a debate with other theologians. The article provides a more vivid description on Hanbalite creeds and analyzes the creeds in the light polemics launched by the Hanbalite scholars against their rivals. The article, however, does not elaborate detailly on each Hanbalite scholar’s contribution in forming sophisticated Hanbalite theology.

Abstract

In the last two decades, the Muslim population in Western Europe has grown in unprecedented ways. At the broader regional level, there are approximately 25 million Muslims living in European Union member states as of 2016, which is estimated to increase to 35 million by 2050. The arrival of Muslims from various countries in the Middle East, Africa, and the Balkans has brought about significant changes and issues socially, economically, as well as politically. Undeniably, some phenomena of discrimination and Islamophobia arise in almost all EU countries in various aspects of public life such as hijâb clothing, building mosques, and housing. Using a qualitative approach and field research, this article explores not only the historical accounts of the presence of Islam in several EU countries, but also the relations between Islam and the state. This research presents several cases of discrimination and Islamophobia and the internal dynamics within the Muslim communities as to the challenges of living in completely different atmosphere. Three countries, namely Austria, Belgium, and Germany are chosen to represent European Union countries. This study contributes to the discourse on the integration of Muslims in European culture and to the way EU countries could involve Muslims in constructing European Islam.

Abstract

This article addresses critical ideas about constructing scientific philosophy within the Muhammadiyah and ‘Aisyiyah Higher Learning Institutions (PTMA) circles through the concept of integrating Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan (Islam and Muhammadiyah Principles), abbreviated as AIK, into the process of developing knowledge and science. Thus, the author provides a broad definition of AIK and distinguishes it into three main aspects. In the next step, the author explains two reasons for developing scientific philosophy in PTMA, including internal reasons in Muhammadiyah and Islam and external ones related to the development of modern science. Consequently, two approaches can be applied to integrate AIK into scientific development through objective and subjective approaches. In definition, the objective approach is a way of dealing with the issues through analyzing and re-building the structure of science it including paradigm (ontology), theories and methods (epistemology), and applications (axiology). In contrast, the subjective approach is the enrichment of the scientist through considering science and religion as complementary instead of contradictory.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to see the utilization of zakat funds collected and managed by Lazismu Solo, whether it succeeds in converting mustahik into muzaki or obtaining better than expected results. This field research employs qualitative analysis methods, with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews and field observations. This result shows that the ZIS (Zakat, Infaq, and Alms) fund utilization program to convert mustahik into muzakki seen from the side of program implementation’s effectiveness and efficiency could be considered successful even though it has not been ideal yet in converting mustahik into muzaki. This success has only led to the mustahik becoming an independent Muslim and regardless of their initial status as a mustahik. In the future, this program must continue to be improved until it actually transforms mustahik into muzakki to become one of the ways to eradicate poverty.
