Abstract

In this paper, the similarities between the Gnostic and Islamic mystic beliefs about “Knowledge” (Ma‘refat) will be considered. The aim is to answer the question of whether they share a common view of divine knowledge. For this purpose, first Gnosticism and its ideas will be clarified. Second, a brief history of Islamic Mysticism will be presented. Then, in light of the evolution path of such beliefs, the main principles of both cults about the Gnosis and Mysticism will be reconsidered. The methodology of this study is based on a comparative study, by analyzing Islamic mystical books and Gnostic texts. Through the study of mystical books, the traditions and beliefs of the early mystics, in this case, are stated, and some examples from the Gnostic books about the Gnosis and mystical knowledge are mentioned. The comparative study of these two religions revealed that they have many similarities in points of view to “knowledge”. Similarities between Islamic mysticism and Gnosticism are so much that some believe that the theory of divine knowledge in the minds of Muslim Sufis originates from Gnostic ideas. But this claim cannot be completely true and the Gnostic beliefs have only had influences on it.

Abstract

A religious experience in the neuroscience view is interpreted as a symptom of neurological disorders of the brain. The neuroscience view is one of the various views that deny the reality of religious experience. Through empirical research instruments, neuroscientists have found that the soul is identical to the brain, which means that every activity can be measured through the brain. This has implications for the experiences of the Prophets in receiving revelations as the result of brain disorders. This paper seeks to explain religious experience through its ontological basis, namely the existence of immaterial existence and the existence of the soul, as well as its epistemological basis, namely the performance of the faculty of knowledge, both of which cannot be separated. The research method used is descriptive-analytic with the philosophical approach of the soul of Al-Ḥikmah Muta’āliyah. The results of this study indicate that the Al-Ḥikmah Muta’āliyah which was founded by Mulla Ṣadrā proves the existence of the wujūd levels, including the soul, explaining the various levels of perception carried out by the soul corresponding to the various levels of existence. Ṣadrā thought can explain the concept of the soul as an immaterial substance that can perceive metaphysical objects as the emanation of God.

Abstract

The Old Testament furnishes its readers with two pictures of Christ’s coming: his coming to earth as a servant in glorious apparel and his coming to earth as a king in glorious apparel. This has brought about bewilderment both to the Jews who expected only the kingly and glorious Christ and the 21st century Christian who are being misled by some preachers and teachers of the Gospel of Christ. The objective of this paper, therefore, is to unearth two forms of Christ’s second coming: (1) a secret coming – as a thief in the night, and (2) public, universal coming, when every eye shall see him. Therefore through lexicosemantics analysis which reveals, its root-words and word-stems and the various possible semantic categories created by the human mind, this paper claims that the secret coming of Christ is what is called the rapture and the public coming is called the παρουσία. It conveys the idea that Christ’s return will be a definite and decisive action on his part. He will come himself, as surely as he came in the incarnation.

Abstract

This paper aims to offer a new perspective on understanding human perfection throughIbn Sīnā’s philosophical framework which is seen as being able to correct the mistakes ofwestern philosophers. It is known that Sigmund Freud and Thomas Hobbes understoodhuman existence physically. As a result, the soul which is seen as the substance of humanexistence is seen as materialistic which can be measured materially to achieve perfectionin reality. The implication is that human perfection is also seen as partially. Partialperfection does not explain the value, dignity and happiness of humans universally, so theviews of Sigmund Freud and Thomas Hobbes do not lead humans to holistic perfection, ashuman nature wants absolutes. In order to overcome the paradigm of Sigmund Freud andThomas Hobbes, this paper explores human perfection according to Ibn Sīnā’s philosophyof the soul through one of his magnumopuses, entitled Mabda wa al-Ma’ad. By using adescriptive-philosophical method, the conclusion is that Ibn Sīnā examines the existenceof the soul through a transcendental approach. According to Ibn Sīnā, the existence ofthe soul cannot be perceived through the senses. Conversely, the existence of the soulcan be known through human awareness of correct knowledge, called ma’rifatal-Ḥaqto systematize various human behavior, called ma’rifat al-khair. Human understandingof ma’rifat al-Ḥaq and ma’rifat al-khair will guide him towards holistic perfection, bothparadigmatically and behaviorally.

Abstract

History shows a constant debate between religionists and atheists. Armstrong wrote thatany new concept of divinity that emerged in society and rejected established traditionswould be labeled as atheist and marginalized. Today, one of the movements that are quitecriticized by religious people is New Atheism. He has a great influence in the westernworld. Richard Dawkins, as the founder, composed a special work entitled God Delusionas a response to the rejection of the supernatural and personal concept of God throughArgument from Improbability. He explained that the complexity of the universe is almostimpossible to come from a simple entity, namely God, but at the same time, a complexcreator also produces infinite regress. Therefore, he took the gradual evolution of the universe as an alternative explanation for the formation of nature. This article will interpretRichard Dawkins’ points of thought in God Delusion, and analyze them using the principlesof logic and philosophy. As a result, the author found several weaknesses in the argumentfrom improbability and the lens in viewing religion. First, the assumption of rejecting theargument of resentment is only to deny the supernatural concept of God. Second, the useof statistical probability arguments limited to natural laws does not lead to supernaturalconcepts. Third, complexity stems primarily from simplicity. Lastly, ignorance of the criteria for the existence of consequences for causes.

Abstract

Dalam kesempatan ini, penulis akan mencoba menganalisis beberapa argumentasi tentang tidak dapat diungkapkannya pengalaman mistis. Dari satu periode ke periode, abad dan tradisi yang berbeda, para mistikus atau sui (‘ârif) telah mengemukakan hal yang sama, yaitu kualitas tak terekspresikan atau tidak dapat diungkapkannya (ineffability) pengalaman penyaksian atau visi mistis (syuhûd). Teori ini pertamakali dikemukakan oleh William James. Kajian dan analisis atas argumentasi-argumentasi tersebut akan penulis mulai dengan terlebih dahulu membincangkan bagaimana James menganalisis gagasan tentang kualitas tidak terlukiskannya (ineffability) pengalaman mistis.

Abstract

In the old days, theology was almost a purely internal religious matter. Ilmu Kalam or Islamic Theology – although this term does not fully signify the meaning of Ilmu Kalam; has been focusing mainly on “internal religious issues” namely; on God and His attributes, on prophethood and the characteristics of prophecy and the resurrection and other issues related to beliefs. But as time goes by and the different parts of the world come into contact with each other; not only merchandises were imported and exported but ideologies and religious beliefs were in no way excluded. With the advent of the modern era since the renaissance, it seems that all things that are religious are considered as an obstacle for the rise of humanism in the whole realm of existence.

Abstract

One of the most elemental discussions in ‘irfân nadzâri (theoretical mysticism), in the section where its adherents discuss ontology, is the debate surrounding the degrees of God’s manifestation. The reason for this is that in the mystic’s view real existence, or the reality of existence, is the existence of the Truth (i.e. God) who manifests Himself in the degrees and mirrors that are the manifold creatures of the world.

Abstract

History of philosophy is built upon rigid discrimination between various human experiences. Human experiences are divided mainly into two major experiences: Perceptual and intelectual. Perceptual experience is deined by empiricism as an aposteriori experience of empirical sensations. Meanwhile, rationalism claims that the only acceptable experience is apriori experience of intelectual object (natural laws, mathematical equations and logical operations). There is no other experience outside those two philosophical account of experiences. All other experiences must be subsumed either within perceptual or intelectual experience.

Abstract

Even though most men are occupied with gaining a livelihood and providing for their daily needs and show no concern for spiritual matters there lies within the nature of man an innate urge to seek the ultimate Real. In certain individuals, this force which is dormant and potential becomes awakened and manifest itself openly, thus leading to a series of spiritual perfections.
