Abstract

In April 2013, the issue of greater inequalities and social exclusion reckoned to be the result of economic growth led the World Bank to set the new goal, to end extreme poverty and promote shared prosperity. Interestingly, the approach of the contemporary solution is largely in consonance with the maqasid or objectives of the Shari’ah. Islam is a universal religion and addresses the entire mankind, not the believers alone. It is, therefore, no surprise that people irrespective of faith do often think along the Islamic lines. The notion of social cohesion is often used with different meanings, however its constituent elements remain the same which includes social inclusion, social capital and social mobility. This study analyzed the impact of the social cohesion, by adopting a cross-country approach. Specifically, the study examined the impact of social cohesion to the poorest quintiles of the population by evaluating the relationship between the factors and the changes in the per capita income of the poor of the developed and developing countries. Panel regression was applied to examine the significance of the social cohesion towards the shared prosperity of the developed and developing countries. It is hoped that this study will serve as an effective mechanism for poverty eradication in the respective countries.

Abstract

This research was conducted with the aim of analyzing problems related to efforts to enforce accountability on waqf management institutions in Batam City with quantitative descriptive methodology. The results of the data analysis showed that the level of understanding of nadzir on the importance of supervision to be carried out on waqf management institutions is at the medium level, which means it still has to be upgraded. This is evidenced by the fact that, in the city of Batam, none of the waqf management institutions has ever been supervised or audited. Many things must be done to overcome this problem, such as transparent and open reports, not only to the government and waqif but also to the public openly. Then, bookkeeping training, as well as the application of clear and strict rules regarding Nadzir's rights and obligations. It is hoped that accountability can be expected to emerge from the professionalism of managing waqf assets.

Abstract

The most difficult challenge for Indian Muslim societies is their compilation to confront their Muslim identity in the socio-political arena. Although there are many Muslim scientists there who claim that Muslims are part of India and India is their homeland. However India is part of Darul Safe (Muslim-friendly) where jihad is meaningless. It also opposes referring to Hindus as kafir (unbelievers), with its negative and exclusionary connotations. However, the struggle of Muslims in India is still long, both social-political, educational and Indian government policies towards Muslims who are still discriminatory. Although, what is felt by Muslims there, also felt by Christians in the arena of contestation with Hinduism there.

Abstract

The conversation regarding the above title by confessing my deep wonder about human’s continuing, never ending endeavor to grapple, to make sense, to find significance, to understand about faith and religion. For ages, since time of immemorial till today, we-humans, endlessly experience, and struggle to understand and to theorize special phenomena of important behaviors in response to significant questions of our lives: why we are here, where we come from, what are the purposes of our existence, why we cease to live, what happens after this, etcetera. These complex important phenomena come to be known widely in our todays’ world as faith or religion. The understanding and experiences on faith and religion, mine and others, are changing overtime, thus my talking points in this document are not my final narratives on the issues of interfaith relations. Hopefully such changes in experiences and understanding lead me to become a better human person, a better member of community, a better global citizen. All the data I use in this short paper is collected and derived from observation and documentation study. Having said these, I sincerely invite feedbacks and input from colleagues participating in this important academic event.

Abstract

This article is intended to analyze the role transmutation of religion occurred in the religious community in South-east Asia, especially in the Muslim community. Religion personally and collectively is usually believed as a form of the human obedience to the Almighty. Many activities either individual or collective are considered as manifestation of belief or implementation of God’s orders that the scripture contained. Often reading religious scripture like the Qur’an inspirited some radical groups to spread intimidation and violence for realization of their goal as be seen in several late decades. Meanwhile there are interesting phenomena take place in the Muslim community i.e. increasing memorization of the Quran besides its digitalization. In consequent, the former will emerge a generation of memorizers (ḥuffāⱬ) and the latter will facilitate the non-memorizers to deal easily with their holy book as such. Then, what is likely the impact of these phenomena in the future of the Muslim life. Are they will dominantly enhance radicalization or de-radicalization or other impact in accordance with development of technological and industrial era that so called the 4.0 era or the 5.0 era.
