Abstract

This article is a kind of introductory explanation of how Islamic epistemology does not and cannot separate religion from the general knowledge and science in general. The idea will begin from the anxiety of some prominent people in religions of the world on the facts happening nowadays at western universities and higher-education institutions. Based on that, this article tries to introduce the classification of knowledge as far as Islam is concerned. It will be elaborated that by recognizing the senses alone, western scientists are only developing a research method, the observation method, or sensory experiments. This observation method is further developed to a very sophisticated method, but it still empties into the absorption of sense-perception. Sense process in the form of reasoning is used, but only to choose, to decide and to reason, not as another instrument in capturing realities. Contrary to Western scientists, as can be seen further, Muslim scientists recognize that the legitimacy of science is not based only on the observation method, but also rational and intuitive methods. In other words, the science does not only recognize the sensory perception in the process of knowledge, but also the sense and perception of the voice of the heart. This has brought about changes and inventions in many fields of knowledge in the early development of Islam. The dichotomy and separation of religion from the general knowledge in Islam as far as history proved had made Islam fail to shine until the time being.

Abstract

This article tries to discuss the discourse of the necessity of the application of the hermeneutic method in Qur’anic studies with the theory of interpretation ma’nā-cum-maghzā offered by Muslim scholars in Yogyakarta. In conclusion, the efforts of the initiators of the hermeneutic of the Qur’an to make hermeneutics be one approach and partners in the study of the Qur’an is an effort that needs to be appreciated, and the goal is to develop Islamic Studies (particularly the study of the Quran). The interpretation of the Qur’an with the theory ma’nā-cum-maghzā , is a method of interpretation of the results of elaboration. If this theory is applied in the interpretation of the Qur’an, it will produce a relative interpretation, or tentative interpretation, and dynamic one that always demands a change in accordance with the age, social and cultural backgrounds. Its implication is no final interpretation. So, Muslims will not ever understand absolutely the truth of the content in Qur’an, because it is dynamic and constantly changing. However, taking into account the assumptions and implications, hermeneutics is not appropriate to be applied in the study of the Qur’an. If it applied to interpret the Qur’an, then it will lead to confusions and doubts. This is because it departed from skepticism and relativism, equating the Qur’anic text as plain texts, requiring uncertainty meanings and relative-tentative interpretations.

Abstract

This study attempts to critically explore Transpersonal Psychology views on the nature of spiritual experience. The exponents of this kind of psychology claimed their concept as an integration between science and religion as well as it was can be universally accepted by all religions. Since this study reveals religious issues especially religious experience that in Islam is often said to be a sufi experience, then the approach of this study is sufism. From this study we found that the Transpersonal Psychology view is really problematic both epistemologically and theologically. Epistemologically, their assumptions are a priory i.e. they are not purely and intensely resulted by scientific research, but based on the premise of perennial philosophy which recognizes the transcendent unity of religions. Theologically, their assumptions lead to the refutation of religious doctrine. It yields a contemplative spiritual practice that ignores religious teaching. As a result, the spiritual knowledge is more subjective i.e. based on human ego, which finally leads to spiritual narcissism. It is really different from the sufis, which base their spirituality on religion, and subjectively affirm their experience to syariah. Psychologically, the sufi who has reached a spiritual state, his soul was in an existential consciousness on the level of faqr, that is a feeling of indebtedness to Allah. It causes the totality of servitude to Allah, not narcissism.

Abstract

The issue of integration of science, in fact, is not only interesting to follow as a scientific discourse, but even more is viewed within the framework of the philosophy of science. The establishment of the Islamic universities after the long process of conversion, cannot be denied, making the issue more than just a discourse, but it has become a scientific building. Of course, it is not necessarily noticed, which one is better, or which one is correct, but should be noticed as an option, as the result of the dialectic of the initiators’’ mind with the social, Islamic, and scientific environment surrounding them, as well as precipitated thought which could be formulated. Philosophical that appears is the possibility of the science-based on religion becoming scientific. If it is according to its history, the study of the Philosophy of Science is related to two issues, they are the scientific criteria and the development of science, then the discourse of integration of science, requires the Philosophy of Science to notice it as the latest issues, associated with the possibility of the birth of new scientific tradition and scientific culture, even with the advent of methodology, scientific activity, scientific work and new products of science, which are in a religious context, which puts religion as an integral part of a scientific building.

Abstract

This paper discusses about the concept of makrifat and its relevance to the spiritual in modern era. Sufi’s makrifat is not the result of speculative reasoning, but the result of direct testimony. Therefore, the problem to be answered about the essence and experience of divinity has always been a mystery. By analyzing critically, this study resulted in the finding that the concept of makrifat according to Ibnu Ata Allah is the essence of tauhid that combines Islam, Iman and Ihsan. He has explored the aspects of ‘jadzab’ in reaching makrifat. The spiritual experiences toward the essence of divinity which is not represented in the form of witnessing the absolute oneness (syuhūd al-aḥadiyyah) became the main characteristic of his makrifat. This condition is contrary to the ideology of modern materialism that nullify the spiritual and assume that the physical world is the essence of everythings. Thus, according to Ibnu Ata Allah, makrifat has found a great momentum wherein it reach this level, ‘ārif must look at the world on Allah’s will. Besides that, an ārif will see at the absolute oneness (syuhūd al-aḥadiyah) which is outside the scope of human reasoning when they get the level of wusṣūl in makrifat form. The view that be felt by ‘ārif bi Allāh give their psychological side affects. They felt fanā, jam`, ghaibah, sakr and another more perfect condition. The testimony and their spiritual condition affecting their vision on the world. Where they watched fi`l by fi`l, ṣifah by s}ifah also dzāt by dzāt .

Abstract

The formation of a culture in a society, which is based only on one of the scientific dimensions, such as an idea that science is value-free, or that religion is merely a fata morgana, will result in incomplete culture, or even destroy the culture itself. It, on this matter, lies the responsibility of scientists together with other stakeholders to build the nation’s culture. With their expertise, scientists should choose and determine a strategy to integrate moral dimension into scientific ontology, epistemology and axiology. Ontologically, Islam recognizes the existence and truth of āyāt al-kauniyyah as well as āyāt al-qauliyyah and integrates the existence of the two based on faith. Furthermore, the development of the products of Islamic thoughts based on this philosophy form a paradigm system of metaphysical realism based on fundamental concept of tawḥīd (oneness) of the existence of Allah s.w.t., minds and the universe (monism). In the oneness of existence (tawhḥīd), what is meant by science needs a consistent formula in light of the feature of existential oneness. The nature of science seen in this light tends to trigger another scientific activity, i.e. the procedure of finding and developing sciences in religion, within which Allah SWT as a focal point of the thinking framework as well as a reference to the whole existential structure.

Abstract

This paper describes about the modernization of Islam in the history. Modernization is the inevitable cosmic necessity, so that the Islamic world is forced by history to be able to response and to adapt to the dynamics of modernity. As a real impact, the process has created intellectuals and activists of Islam that involve in the acts of social movements. They tried to face the challenges of the modernity. Islam is not moving in the empty space. However, Islam appears in the middle of the people who need answers to the modernity that increases progressively. This fact is clearly the starting point of the importance of the dynamic religious understanding. In this context, ijtihad will be the only way to keep the conservation doctrine, and at the same time is able to follow the rhythm of modernity. The role of thinkers and activists of Islamic reform is very significant in making products of ijtihad to bring the Muslims facing social change as a result of modernization. Islam is a spirit of change, and then it creates social change while still having roots of theology and Islamic traditions. The modernization which is born from the womb of Western civilization has awakened the Muslims to aware the importance of Islam as a part of the social system. Islam has a strength and a great potential to build the nation. Therefore, Muslims should be agents of change to have social mobility.

Abstract

This article assumes most contemporary intellectuals who considered that the scholars of hadith do not concentrate to criticism of “matan” of hadith. According to them, the classic hadith scholars portray not much sense in reviewing and critiquing the prophetic traditions. This criticism is inherited and developed by some reviewers of prophetic tradition in the West. Some may think that the scholars did not use a lot of sense in criticizing the hadith. In fact, any study of any text can not be done without using the sense. But, in studying the hadith texts, the scholars of hadith did not rely on the opinions of the sense only, but they put the sense into its position proportionally. Related to this, the criticism methodology of “sanad” is part of the criticism of “matan” that can not be separated, because of the efforts of the scholars in reviewing “sanad” is to prove the authenticity and validity of “matan”. The validity of a hadith should be assessed through a study of the “sanad” and “matan” once. To judge a hadith by the sense only can not be accepted. So, to prove the truth of any information is not enough just by assumption or opinion of the sense itself. Proving the accuracy of “riwayat” empirically has been done by the previous hadith scholars, and it is their main activity to prove the truth of narration of hadith they heard and understood by their sense.
