Abstract

The modern positivistic paradigm, which places significant emphasis on empirical verification, has led to a shift in the position of Islamic sciences. Islamic sciences, which rely on a balance between revelation, reason, and human experience, have been affected by this shift. In the intellectual history of Islam, the mystical dimension has played an important role in shaping the conception of science. This raises critical questions about the role of Islamic epistemology in contemporary intellectual discourse. This article highlights the need for a reconstruction of Islamic epistemology that unites metaphysics, rationality, and revelation as its main pillars. The prevailing imbalance among these three elements hinders the advancement of Islamic epistemology. By anchoring Islamic epistemology in metaphysics, it aims to present an alternative to the prevailing modern paradigm and contribute to the development of knowledge that is more pertinent to contemporary challenges. The reconstruction of Islamic epistemology seeks to integrate revelation and reason in a more balanced and systematic manner, with metaphysics serving as the conceptual bridge that unites the two. This integration, the study posits, creates new opportunities for dialogue between empirical science and metaphysical understanding, as well as encourages a more holistic perspective in the study of Islam.

Abstract

This study aims to highlight the significance of Ahmad Hasyim Muzadi’s thoughts on civil tolerance, arguing that his paradigm can be used in conflict resolution. It explores the significance of Muzadi’s ideas in the context of Indonesia’s religious diversity, employing a qualitative approach through textual analysis. The findings revealed that Muzadi pioneered the concept of civil tolerance—a nuanced, humanized type of religious coexistence and mutual respect that goes beyond surface-level acceptance. Civil tolerance places a premium on the human experience and the defense of human rights while acknowledging the values inherent in all religious teachings. Muzadi’s four-dimensional concept of civil tolerance involves respecting diversity, acknowledging religious values, understanding human rights, and making collaborative efforts to build a more harmonious society. This research contributes to the discourse by presenting insights into how accepting such a nuanced form of tolerance can address existing problems as well as set the groundwork for a more inclusive society.

Abstract

The scholarship on the last days (ākhir al-zamān) has predominantly centered around religious and historical texts, leaving out the rich mystical sources within Shia culture. This study aims to fill this gap by investigating Islamic mysticism from the second to the tenth century AH, written in Persian and Arabic. By delving into these mystical writings, this research intends to shed light on the transformative impact of discussions in the last days and the way mystics approached this subject. The overlooked evolution of these writings remains significant for grasping the continued relevance of discussions on the last days in contemporary Shia society and other religions. The research suggests that discussions surrounding the concept of the last days have been a source of considerable debate among mystics dating back to the first mystical tradition, with these interpretations often incorporating elements from several religions, becoming more intricate in subsequent periods, and influencing Shia culture today.

Abstract

This study explores the ontology of dhunnya in Madurese culture, encompassing its interpretations as treasure, the mortal world, and the worldly realm within the framework of intentionality-equilibrium. The concept of dhunnya is inherently directed towards achieving socio-religious balance, which serves as a fundamental guiding principle for the Madurese, both within their homeland and in diasporic contexts. This concept underpins the mindset, attitudes, and behaviors of the Madurese people, who place significant emphasis on spiritual and religious dimensions. This study adopts a hermeneutic-philosophical approach, concluding that the harmony and disharmony of dhunnya are reflected in the balance between rights to property, altruism, and transient worldly adornments. Moreover, this balance is oriented towards fostering ethnic solidarity and strengthening the kiai-santri relationship. The eclectic model of dhunnya ontology is reconstructed through an analysis of socio-religious practices, including koloman, haul, tahlilan, molodhen, funeral rites, and studio-based education. These practices are particularly relevant to the integration of spiritual-religious and spiritual-economic aspects among Madurese migrants in Malaysia. This finding underscores the critical role of socio-religious principles in maintaining the harmony of Madurese life in diaspora contexts.

Abstract

The higher objectives of the Sharia provide a legal framework within Islamic law to guide independent reasoning in interpreting legal issues based on rational principles. However, knowledge can also be obtained through unveiling. Ibn ‘Arabi argued that intellectual activities without spiritual experience are like spiritual perceptions without intellectual support. His analysis involved a systematic and rigorous approach to understanding and interpreting Islamic law through philosophical, linguistic, and historical contextualization. Ibn ‘Arabi relied on inner knowledge when examining legal issues and performed a type of spiritual ijtihād, but he did not disregard the role of traditional scholarship in Islamic jurisprudence. This balanced approach highlights the integration of rational and spiritual dimensions in legal reasoning, emphasizing the importance of both intellectual and spiritual insights in the interpretation of Islamic law. By combining these elements, Ibn ‘Arabi’s methodology offers a comprehensive understanding of legal issues, ensuring that interpretations are both deeply rooted in traditional scholarship and enriched by personal spiritual experiences. This dual approach underscores the dynamic and multifaceted nature of Islamic jurisprudence, where rational analysis and spiritual insight work together to achieve a holistic understanding of the law.

Abstract

This study uses the concept of religious moderation to analyze the perceptions of traditional community leaders in Lake Toba Caldera, North Sumatra on halal tourism. Toba, Samosir, Humbang Hasundutan, and Dairi are Christian-majority regions designated as priority tourist destinations by the government, with a focus on halal tourism. A qualitative method was used in this study, with interviews with traditional leaders as the primary source, supplemented by interviews with tourists and business actors, as well as observations and literature reviews. The findings, analyzed through the concept of religious moderation, revealed three perspectives on halal tourism: the first group saw it as a form of Islamization, the second had only a vague idea, and the third rejected the term itself due to its discriminatory connotations. Overall, the traditional leaders accepted halal tourism as a service for Muslim tourists but were not comfortable with the term ‘halal tourism’. This study highlights the importance of religious moderation values, with tolerance and national commitment emerging as the key indicators of religious moderation in the region.

Abstract

The narratives of peace, humanity, and religious freedom have become central to public discourse, particularly in promoting inclusive Islamic theology within Muslim communities across ASEAN countries, e.g. Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and the Philippines. This discourse unfolds in various public spaces: government institutions, religious organizations, educational settings, and places of worship. It reflects a dynamic religious contestation, driven by organic intellectuals who engage through institutional channels and humanistic awareness. This article seeks to explore the religious discourse surrounding the productive contestation of inclusive Islamic theology and to analyze how this discourse is disseminated among Muslim scholars in Southeast Asia. A qualitative research method was employed, involving observations and interviews with influential Muslim scholars from academic, governmental, and religious organizations. The focus was on understanding how individuals are shaped by the policies and ideas they advocate. Interviews provided insights from academics and religious activists (referred to as Muslim scholars) on the issue of inclusive Islamic theology. The analysis draws on contestation theory to examine the arena of religious narratives in the public sphere. Findings indicate that the discourse surrounding inclusive Islamic theology in Southeast Asia varies by country, with each nation adapting it to its unique cultural and social landscape. In Indonesia, for example, the discourse is often more inclusive and culturally grounded, while in other countries, it may take a more structural approach. Despite these variations, Southeast Asian Muslim scholars broadly agree on the importance of promoting inclusive Islamic theology drawing upon religious teachings, state policies, and societal characteristics as key considerations.
Tri Hita Karana and Islamic Ethics: Bridging Universal Values for Social Harmony and Environmental Sustainability Hisyam, Mohamad Ali; Damyati, Akhmad Rofii; Hambali, Khadijah Binti Mohd Khambali @; Toksöz, Hatice

Abstract

Tri Hita Karana (THK) is a fundamental principle of Hindu philosophy, particularly influential in Bali that emphasizes harmony in three interrelated realms: with the divine (Parahyangan), with fellow human beings (Pawongan), and with nature (Palemaha). This balance has fostered social cohesion within Hindu communities, promoted environmental stewardship, and served as a broader model for societal harmony and sustainability. While rooted in Hinduism, THK resonates with universal values that transcend religious boundaries. However, as Muslims seek to adopt practices inspired by THK, theological differences may arise, particularly regarding acts of worship. This study explores the compatibility of THK with Islamic teachings, particularly in the areas of social and environmental ethics, drawing on the work of scholars such as Mutawalli Sha‘rawi. Both Islam and Hinduism emphasize obedience to God, human welfare, and environmental responsibility. However, differences in worship must be respected. Muslims can embrace THK’s principles of social and environmental responsibility within the permissible framework of Islamic doctrine while avoiding practices associated with Parahyangan. This approach promotes interfaith understanding while enabling collective efforts toward social harmony and environmental stewardship.

Abstract

Puritan Muslims disapprove of the syncretic architecture of the Menara Kudus Mosque; however, the early Muslim saints spreading Islam in Java adopted this Hindu-Buddhist architectural style as a sign of cultural acceptance and continuity. This study aims to explore the symbolic meanings of the syncretic architecture of the Menara Kudus Mosque built by Sunan Kudus. This qualitative study employs the symbolic interaction theory of Joel M. Charon and George Ritzer, supplemented by the comparative method to unveil the similarities and differences in functions and structures between the Menara Kudus Mosque and Hindu-Buddhist temples and their inherent symbolism can be understood. The study found that Sunan Kudus chose this unique architectural style to promote inclusive and tolerant behavior through a theological-imaginative dialogue process to create social harmony. Such an attitude reflects Sufistic tawḥīd teachings combined with a deep understanding and respect for the local cultures.

Abstract

This study examines the religious perspectives on the Ahmadiyya movement in East Sumatra in the early twentieth century. The primary research questions are: What was the official stand of the ‘ulamā’ of the Ahmadiyya movement in East Sumatra? What were the epistemological foundations of their views? To date, there has been no specific research on this topic. Thus, this study aims to provide a historical, sociological, and philosophical review of the rejection of the Ahmadiyya movement that emerged in East Sumatra in the 1930s. This is a library research study employing historical, sociological, and philosophical approaches. Al-Jabiri’s epistemological framework is utilized as a tool to analyze this research topic. The study reveals that the ‘ulamā’ in East Sumatra, particularly Tengkoe Fachroeddin and the Committee for the Eradication of Ahmadiyya Qadiyani Beliefs, concluded that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad and his followers were apostates and infidels. In constructing their knowledge about the Ahmadiyya, they employed rational epistemology. This study argues that the rejection by scholars in East Sumatra is based on rational arguments in reference to the religious sciences they studied. This approach has negative implications as it facilitated the emergence of religious attitudes that are dogmatic, defensive, apologetic, and polemical.
