Abstract

This article critically explains the concept and practice of the spiritual initiation (rābiṭah murshid) of the disciple and the role of Sheikh Muhammad Waly al-Khalidy in the Naqshbandiyah (Sufi) order in Aceh. Employing a qualitative method along with a hermeneutical approach the research found that the role of the guide is at the core of spiritual training and education. The spiritual connection between the student and the teacher is an intimate bond that allows the latter to guide the former in his efforts to become a perfect human being. The findings of this study differ from those of J. Spencer Trimingham, Julia Day Howell, and Mulyadhi Kartanegara who assumed that the authority of the spiritual guide is overemphasized and no longer necessary once the sālik reached his path. However, according to Muhammad Waly, a true sheikh has natural authority, and this authority is justified and does not intrude upon the Shari‘ah as it has been done during the reading of Naẓam of Obat Hati (Medicine of the Heart) containing the names of the murshids and khulafā’ of the Sufi order.

Abstract

This study aimed to explain the dynamics of Sufi healing through Sufi dance. Using the qualitative approach through the phenomenology of religion, the data of the present study was collected by interviews, observations, and visual materials. The research sample consisted of five members of a Sufi dance group in Surakarta, who found relief from their physical and psychological ailments through the movements performed in the whirling dance training. The healing process of physical and psychological issues through the Sufi dance can be seen in the aspects of catharsis, breath management and regulation, cognitive restructuring, habituation mechanisms, self-control, and muscle stretching. However, the expression of these aspects in differed in each case. In addition, this study also found that ablution and prayer and the altered state of consciousness during the performance of the dance had an impact on the healing process. Therefore, Sufi dance should be included as an alternative healing method.

Abstract

This study examines the translation of Shi‘ite and Wahhabi literature in Indonesia. This is a literature study. The primary data was obtained by examining the record of translated and published titles in Indonesian. This study refers to the theory of Mehdi Nakosteen, R.G.A. Dolby, and Abdul Munip regarding the transmission of knowledge through translation activities, their phases, and motives. This study found that these books from Iran and Saudi Arabia, covering various Islamic knowledge, are published and distributed in Indonesia by affiliated and unaffiliated publishers in order to introduce their ideas and doctrines to the wider Muslim community in Indonesia, using the Indonesian language as the medium of transmission. This transmission of knowledge through translation takes place through the awareness, interest, and adoption phases, and has religious, educational, economic, ideological, and stimulative-provocative motivations.

Abstract

Most religious cosmology studies focus on the microcosm and macrocosm; however, the origin of cosmic mysticism is the eternal cosmos extensively studied in cultures and religions such as Javanese and Islam. This study aimed to examine the different interpretations of the sanctity of the eternal cosmos hierarchy in Javanese mysticism and Islamic Sufism. The eternal cosmos is referred to as jagad langgeng and ‘ālam akbar in Javanese mysticism and Islamic Sufism, respectively. This qualitative study conducted document reviews to obtain primary and secondary data analyzed through comparative analysis. This study aimed to examine the concept of the five eternal cosmos hierarchies of the absolute universe, lordness universe, transcendent universe, celestial universe, and terrestrial universe. The findings reinforce the concept of cosmic spirituality, divine cosmology, and wisdom of cosmology as well as theoretical and practical implications. Theoretically, the study contributes to the integration of sacred Javanese Islamic, and Western cosmologies and the clarification of the eternal and temporary cosmos in theological discussions. The findings also have practical implications in creating eco-leadership based on hasta brata values.

Abstract

Happiness is not a fixed entity but rather constructed by the individuals in their interaction with society. Happiness has been explored by religion, philosophy, and various academic disciplines, however, these concepts are constructed by the individuals following their respective contexts. Individuals’ understanding of happiness varies due to their unique circumstances. Therefore, it becomes important to study the concept of happiness that exists in society. This study is a qualitative field study. The respondents consisted of twelve individuals who are graduates of Islamic schools (madrasah) or Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) who work as teachers, traders, or farmers in Kediri Regency, East Java, Indonesia. Data collection methods which have been used in this study are documentation and in-depth interviews. The findings of the study show that respondents generally perceive happiness as a state of peaceful and contented mind due to the fulfilment of physical and spiritual needs accompanied by gratitude to God. In line with their views, their orientation towards happiness is generally religious or spiritual. For them, genuine happiness can be achieved when they can perform religious rituals and become closer to God. To attain genuine happiness, their religious or spiritual needs and desires must be fulfilled. However, they also do not have the same orientation towards happiness. The religious doctrines of happiness acquired from the madrasah or the pesantren seem to be maintained, although there are slight differences among the respondents. This indicates that their understanding of happiness is a construct based on the doctrines they have learned and their individual experiences over time.

Abstract

Despite the popular recognition of Indonesian Islam as being accommodative and moderate, there is a more conservative trend noticeable in the social and political sphere. Alerted by this recent development, the Ministry of Religious Affairs formulated the policy of religious moderation, which has drawn the attention of academicians. This research aims to gauge the level of religious moderation among lecturers of State Islamic Higher Education Institutions in Indonesia and its contributing factors. Specifically, this study attempts to examine whether variables of interreligious interaction, university policy, and socio-cultural context significantly influence the construction of religious moderation. It used a mixed method of quantitative and qualitative approaches with convergent parallel design. The quantitative approach applied a survey method using a questionnaire involving 272 lecturers at twelve institutions selected through multistage systematic sampling, while the qualitative approach used a focus group discussion technique to the management of the Religious Moderation House in 10 universities. The research revealed that the average level of religious moderation is moderate. The variables that significantly influenced religious moderation were university policies and sociocultural context, while the interreligious interaction variable had no significant effect. More complex variables need to be considered in future research.

Abstract

In the twentieth century, Islam faced various ideological challenges, among them being socialism. There are claims that socialism is more consistent with Islamic values than other ideologies like capitalism. One prominent Muslim thinker of this group is Mustafa al-Siba‘i whose attempted to combine Islamic principles with those of socialism. This research examines his idea of Islamic socialism, his criticism of communism-Marxism, and the typology and contextualization of his thought. It uses a literary and historical approach, collecting data from al-Siba‘i’s works and historical analysis to achieve a more in-depth understanding of the main concepts in al-Siba‘i’s thought on Islamic socialism. The main concept of Islamic socialism is social solidarity, rooted in Islamic teachings and emphasizing the importance of social justice and shared prosperity. Al-Siba‘i criticized socialism-Marxism and capitalism as man-made and, therefore, imperfect systems that are fraught with fatal errors, while offering Islam as an alternative. He asserts that the principles of Islam based on the Qur’ān, hadith, and ijtihād provide a solid foundation for socialism in its original sense. As such, al-Siba‘i’s approach attempts to contextualize socialism within an Islamic framework, creating a unique view of how Islamic principles can be applied in the context of socialism.
