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 delves into the intellectual history of Ṭarīqa ‘Alawiyya, tracing its development from early Alid piety to an Akbarian gnostic tradition, ultimately converging into a revivalist paradigm during the late 16th century. The transformative journey involves a reinterpretation and reformulation of the foundational Akbarian doctrines, strategically tailored to enhance accessibility for both the Ba ‘Alawi community and the broader Muslim society. The focal point of this study is the textual formation of prominent Ba ‘Alawi scholars of the third ṭabaqa, who played a pivotal role in reshaping the Tariqa’s trajectory. While their efforts demonstrably amplified the Tariqa’s influence and reach, they also ignited concerns among some Ba ‘Alawi scholars about the potential dilution of the movement’s unique genealogical configuration. This tension between expansion and preservation gave rise to a parallel restorative movement within the Tariqa, operating concurrently with the reformative movement. This research employs a desk research methodology, drawing upon both textual and contextual data, to examine the intellectual articulations and internal dynamics within the Ṭarīqa ‘Alawiyya. Through the writings of its saintly and scholarly figures, the study investigates how discourse functioned as a tool for negotiating power and reveals the dialogical nature of various canonical texts.

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

This study examines the adaptation of religious practices by Muslim communities during the COVID-19 pandemic, navigating the unique challenges of reconciling religious adherence with the imperative to follow scientifically informed health protocols. This research investigates how the general populace integrates Islamic religious practices within a global health crisis framework by employing qualitative research methods, including interviews, observations, and literature analysis. The principal findings highlight that compliance with health protocols as a manifestation of governmental obedience does not mean abandoning the faith but increasing it. This observation points towards the emergence of post-secular religiosity, wherein communities do not relinquish their beliefs in favour of scientific knowledge. Ultimately, this study offers crucial insights into the spiritual resilience exhibited by Muslim communities when confronted with a public health crisis.

Abstract

The issue of revelation is one of the most important issues in the divine religions. In Islam the issue revelation is of central importance, as the revealed word of God, the Qur’ān, is in itself a miracle in its inimitability, a unique masterpiece of the divine message that cannot be replicated. Revelation is understood as communication from the unseen world above, whereby God issues His divine commands to humankind. The eminent Muslim philosophers Ibn Sina and Mulla Sadra discussed the concept of revelation in their works. Ibn Sina considered revelation as a specific sensory effect on the prophet’s consciousness, whereby the Angel of Revelation cast the divine words into the prophet’s heart. Mulla Sadra also considered revelation as a type of unseen form of communication, whereby the divine commands are shared with humankind. This article attempts to study the nature of revelation, the levels of revelation, and the manner of revelation from the point of view of Ibn Sina and Mulla Sadra through a descriptive-analytical method. Ibn Sina and Mulla Sadra, despite their differences in conceptualizing and explaining the process of revelation, agreed that the revealed message is from God directly, without the independent agency of the Angel of Revelation and the prophets, who only carry and receive the divine message, yet cannot alter it.

Abstract

This article investigates the importance of language as a carrier of meaning in the works of medieval Muslim polymath Ibn ‘Arabi (d. 1240) and contemporary philosophers Jacques Derrida (d. 2004) and Charles Taylor. Rather than focusing on the content of each figure’s writings on this topic, the research instead explores the writing style of Ibn ‘Arabi, specifically his use of etymology, as a creative endeavor to convey meaning in an indirect performance. After discussing Ibn ‘Arabi’s creative etymology, the paper concludes with a positioning of this conversation in contemporary discourses on language and society, particularly in Derrida’s seminal work Of Hospitality and two of Taylor’s monographs, The Language Animal and Social Imaginaries. Despite Taylor’s criticism of Derrida’s deconstructionist subjectivity, the former’s investment in ‘stories, images and legends’ paves the way for a more nuanced engagement with Derrida’s creative etymology and, by extension, Ibn ‘Arabi’s. The purpose of this excursion is twofold. First, to problematize Taylor’s critical view of postmodernism and Derrida’s school of deconstruction. Second, and more importantly, to highlight the relevance of Ibn ‘Arabi’s premodern prism of religion and mysticism for the contemporary – post-secular age.

Abstract

This study aims to provide a thorough examination and analysis of the political loyalty discourses of two prominent figures in Sunnism and Twelver Shiism: the Egyptian-Qatari Sunni scholar Yūsuf al-Qaraḍāwī (1926-2022) and the Iraqi Twelver Shii scholar Muḥammad Mahdī al-Āṣifī (1939-2015). I discuss the origins and effects of these perspectives on political allegiance, demonstrating how Sunnism grounds political allegiance in pragmatic ethics and the context of conflict and peace while encouraging equity when interacting with non-Muslims. The Twelver Shii school of thought supports principlist ethics, promoting the idea that political loyalty to people who represent legitimate religious and political authority is an expression of obedience that must be shown without exception. In terms of methodology, I use a discourse analysis method to determine the major thesis of a statement as well as the arguments presented in support of a particular thesis. I place the arguments in the context of the ongoing discussions in Islamic political ethics. Al-Qaraḍāwī and al-Āṣifī agree on the importance of treating non-aggressive Muslims fairly and remaining devoted to the Muslim community. I conclude that there is more space for a flexible ethics of political allegiance and less exclusion between the two schools of thought.
