<![CDATA[Far from being a school or a sect, Sufism is an ideology, a mode of life, a set of principles, and a ‘faith in practice.’ Sufism has been addressed and presented by scholars countless times. It has been primarily defined as either Islamic mysticism or as the spiritual dimension of Islam. Yet, as much as mysticism is ineffable as much as the published research is full of tangled definitions that only scholars can comprehend. The traditional approach to the study of Sufism makes the topic burdensome and mentally unattainable to the learned public. This article explains Sufism without using complex terminology or intense presentations of mystical states and stations. It is a scholarly attempt that is ultimately designed to provide a straightforward definition of Sufism. It presents Sufism in a three-fold manner, as a synthesis of three Islamic principles: Islamic spirituality, asceticism, and mysticism. Each of the three dimensions is explained in an Islamic context to demonstrate the validity of the Sufi trends as being purely Islamic. Spirituality, asceticism, and mysticism are all discussed within the frame of Tradition, that is, the Quran and the Sunna of the Prophet Muhammad.]]>

<![CDATA[This paper discusses the wisdom approach to justice and injustice of Jalāl al-Dīn al-Rūmī, one of the greatest Sufi sages of all times. This famous Sufi master, in his background, was an eminent social thinker, intellectual, and especially a law scholar. Thus, it is not surprising that he dealt with these terms, which were critical concepts in past political thought in the West and the East, extensively in his works. Firstly, as a method, the study traces these two concepts in al-Rūmī’s works and mainly Masnavi. Then it connects them with their contemporary use. It is understood from al-Rūmī’s definitions of them, metaphors and stories accompanied by messages to judges and politicians, that he uses the concept of justice, especially in the sense of today’s rule of law and protection of human rights, and injustice in the sense of human rights violations and totalitarian policies. When we reread and rethink al-Rūmī’s mentioned concepts in this way, his political wisdom can inspire and guide both today’s Islamic world and humanity to overcome their challenges in these crucial areas.]]>

<![CDATA[The article has a two main aims: situating the (post-)Akbarian ideas in the context of Islamic post-classical, esp., post-Avicennian thought and moving the field of the study ‘Abd al-Karīm al-Jīlī away from the focus on one work, al-Insān al-Kāmil, to the inclusion of a broader specter of writings regarded as minor texts. The article proposes a rhizomatic reading of the sources to re-open the field of analysis. At the same time, the article argues for waḥdat al-wujūd as a main element of post-classical Islamic discourse sharing a framework with post-Avicennian thought. Reconfiguring the field of the study of writings on waḥdat al-wujūd this will allow for an analysis of the field not an analysis of selected works. The analysis will be done by a close reading of a set of works focussed on the basmala as one of the most important formulae. This is not an analysis of the letters and its interpretations but much more of the post-classical philosophy and the relation of the Sufism of waḥdat al-wujūd to it. The article discusses the role of the writings of al-Jīlī and Ibn ‘Arabī. The analysis of the field of writings of al-Jīlī opens a perspective on waḥdat al-wujūd as an interrelated field of meanings beyond the focus on single works and its possible intertextual references.]]>

<![CDATA[Among the background of the emergence of Sufism is the Muslim struggle against the contestation and power struggle of the Umayyads in the second century Hijri. The problems of power, politics and religious conflicts that gave birth to a pragmatic and materialist attitude by some Muslims were then addressed by some ascetics by voicing an ascetic attitude towards such matters. After developing and splitting into several tarekat, the ideological values of Sufism also changed and shifted and even led to the path of the ideology of Sufism. This shift is what this research wants to uncover, considering how important it is to explain the pure ideology of Sufism by presenting historical and contextual studies as a shield for worldly conflicts and power. By using literature research, this article concludes that the style of Sufi teaching that adheres to the eclecticism model has historical roots as a balance between the profane and the secular. The eclectic Sufi style contains three basic principles of Sufi teachings, namely realizing worldly life as an undeniable reality, spiritual practice rituals such as remembrance and relying on sharia. In addition, Sufi teachings with an eclectic style have a strong level of relevance to religious patterns in Indonesia, the pattern of Sunnī madhhab.]]>

<![CDATA[Since the thirteenth century AD, the presence of a new model of Sufism, neo-Sufism, has impacted the infiltration of political identity in the spiritual flow of the tarekat practicing society. The spiritual world of Sufism has experienced a paradigm shift in thinking, from what was originally a movement that balances the hereafter and the worldly things, but in the end this movement is also considered very pragmatic-contextual that enters the socio-political dimension. This article wants to provide a new understanding of how the balanced relationship between Sufism and politics occurs in the Mataraman community, Kediri, East Java. By using the non-participant observer technique, this article produces two things: first, the political culture formed in the Kediri Mataraman society has a centralized pattern, where both tarekat congregations and ordinary people devote themselves to any field of social problems to a kiai. Sufi kiai becomes the main role models because they are considered pious people for the Mataraman community. This recognition of the Sufi kiai figure forms a group of socio-political systems. Second, the political pyramid that developed in the people of Kediri City follows a hierarchical-centralized pyramid pattern, where the kiai/murshid tarekat are ordained as the movers and creators of the foremost political culture after the Kediri city government and business bureaucrats. This pattern of social structure becomes the link so that leadership can be achieved and become the material for formulating political strategies.]]>

<![CDATA[Muslimah fashion models evolve at a breakneck pace, altering not only consumption but also the perception of a person’s belief and piety. There are some wrangling overvalues, piety, and even the status of a Muslimah dressed in Islamic garb. The material and spiritual realms are fused in a dress symbol, which eventually leads to popular piety in everyday life. By integrating an ethical and aesthetic perspective into the material and spiritual realms, the existence and development of middle-class Muslimah clothing is an expression of an identity centered on the popularity of piety. By utilizing ethnographic methods such as interviews and observations of fashion trends and the Hijaber Mom Community in Indonesia, this article attempts to answer the question of whether fashion models should emphasize self-pity or follow current fashion trends. The article demonstrates how the religious practices of middle-class Muslimah have shifted. According to them, religious piety no longer occurs in a sacred space but rather in a public space. Muslimah dress evolved from ethical-normative to aesthetic-populist, resulting in the formation of popular piety and piety adapted to the development of fashion models.]]>

<![CDATA[Asceticism as a lifestyle is highly esteemed by leaders, scholars, and mystics due to its prominent position in Islam. A survey into the lifestyle of the most significant historical religious figures of the Islamic world shows their detachment from the world and luxurious living. The main question of the research is around this issue in the thought of one of the descendant of Prophet Muhammad whether his noble behavior is the same as asceticism in mystical texts and to know whether asceticism is wearing old clothes, poverty, and abstaining from the lawful blessings. This article intends to explore the concept of asceticism based on content analysis and by referring to main Islamic mysticism texts as well as ‘Alī bin al-Ḥusayn. Asceticism has effects and signs that are mentioned in some words of ‘Alī bin al-Ḥusayn, such as avoiding the apparent, yearning for death and eternal reward of the Hereafter, and striving to obey God. We have discovered and analyzed these words and compared them with its mystical concept. The result of the study indicates the main approach of ‘Alī bin al-Ḥusayn towards the world and emphasizes that Muslim mystics follow the Prophet and his lineage in their ascetic method.]]>

<![CDATA[This article explores how Sunnī and Shī‘ī Muslims develop knowledge politics in accordance with their unique thought environments. This research discovers tentative evidence that the Muslim political leadership model plays an important part in the dynamics of Muslim society by employing a qualitative literature method with a descriptive-argumentative approach. Normatively, Sunnis and Shiites are similar, yet historically, there are strategic disparities. The notions of wilāyat al-‘ulamā’ in Sunnī and wilāyat al-faqīh in Shī‘ī have the similar content in terms of the politics of knowledge in forming leadership standards, but they have different methodologies for gaining knowledge and abilities. This article confirms that there are no normative issues with Islamic leadership and Islamic politics. Differences in perspectives on Islamic politics exist only in the model of political knowledge and technical state competencies. Furthermore, the constructive achievements of Islamic politics arise only when the leader chooses scientific leadership. In the golden age of medieval Islamic civilization, for example, the politics of knowledge spawned the culture of knowledge. During the period, the political leadership was successful in developing a wide range of information goods and useful tools for the people.]]>

<![CDATA[Within Islam, the topic of the heart (qalb) occupies an important place. In order to understand the breadth and depth of this topic, it is necessary to understand its intricacies. The Qur’ān, the Ḥadīth, and scholarly interpretations detail the potentialities that, to varying degrees, lie dormant within each and every individual. The heart is described as being able to be pure and to find peace, while equally being able to be darkened and rust. The qalb is mentioned frequently throughout the sacred texts of Islam. This article examines the notion of qalb salīm, mentioned twice within the Qur’ān, both times with regard to the Prophet Ibrahim. Firstly, the importance of qalb will be elaborated. Secondly, an examination of the qalb salīm within the major Qur’ānic commentaries (tafsīr), particularly Sufi exegesis, is examined. Thirdly, related ḥadīth literature is analyzed. An attempt is made to understand the soundness of a sound heart. The analysis in this article will highlight the qualities associated with the qalb salīm. While a comprehensive analysis of the notion of qalb salīm is beyond the scope of this article, an attempt is made to open further discussion on this important concept and address the dearth of currently available academic literature.]]>

<![CDATA[The question of jihad is fundamental to Ibn Taymiyya since he is one of the theologians of the Mamluk period—and probably of the entire medieval period—who wrote the most on this subject. Jihad was an essential part of the life of the famous theologian of Damascus, who took part in the Mamluk war effort as a volunteer in various expeditions. Over the last decades, scholars have been interested in the issue of jihad in Ibn Taymiyya and have highlighted several elements. These works have helped us learn more about the ideology of jihad in Ibn Taymiyya. However, it should be noted that those works focus on the jihad against a particular enemy (Mongols, heretics of the KisrawÄn, Shi‘ites) in a particular context and do not deal much with Ibn Taymiyya’s general conception of jihad, for which several grey areas remain. This article will discuss Ibn Taymiyya and his general conception of jihad. My method is broken down into two steps to provide new elements and research perspectives. In the first instance, I will identify the maximum of Ibn Taymiyya’s writings and passages related to jihad, making the beginning of a type of inventory. Then I will analyze their content and cross-check them to bring to light general aspects of Ibn Taymiyya’s conception of jihad.]]>
