Abstract

Ibn 'Arabī, who is also referred to as Doctor Maximus (al-Shaykh al-Akbar) within the Sufi world, has been recognized for centuries as one of the awliyā' of God. Nevertheless, this status did not preclude numerous scholars from designating him as a mujtahid. The issue lies in the conception of a walī as an individual endowed with spiritual knowledge that enables them to comprehend matters without the necessity of learning or research. This prompts further inquiry into the question of whether Ibn 'Arabī, the walī, can be designated a mujtahid. This article employs a qualitative approach and a review of the extant literature to examine the claims of scholars who are based on Ibn 'Arabī's own thoughts. The culmination of the research indicated that, on the one hand, Ibn 'Arabī asserted that a walī cannot be designated as a mujtahid, as his autonomous determination is derived from the method of kashf. Therefore, it can be posited that the individual in question is not, in fact, Ibn 'Arabī. Nevertheless, historical evidence suggests that Ibn 'Arabī engaged in rigorous study of Islamic law and jurisprudence. This suggests the possibility that he may have utilized ijtihād in his independent decision-making, thereby classifying him as a mujtahid. However, prior to conducting a thorough investigation into the underlying factors that influenced Ibn 'Arabī's independent decisions, it would be premature to categorize him as a mujtahid

Abstract

The hypothetical idea of immortality or eternity has stirred human curiosity throughout civilization. There are various postulates built about immortality: they can be philosophical or scientific in nature. The arguments can be philosophical, theistic, or even rational-scientific. However, due to the development of science and technology, the issue of immortality is no longer just a religious discourse.The issue that has emerged is that these days, scientifically, factual death is understood as the “loss of information” along with the disappearance of consciousness.Thus, through science, especially visionary science, the idea has emerged to transform the content of consciousness through digital machines where consciousness, in turn, is reset and then preserved as digital information.Visionary science also encompasses the cosmic dimension of consciousness that enriches the dynamical reflection of immortality.Thus, a new stage in the understanding of immortality like this challenges public awareness and further analysis. In the context of such discourse, the aim of this research is to explore and examine arguments from both philosophical and visionary scientific perspectives that contextualize the discourse of immortality. Counterarguments are also presented, especially from assumptions related to the digitalization of consciousness. The method used in this research is the literature study method. Data collection includes data from philosophical literature and visionary science. The research results on the discourse of immortality, contemplated philosophically and cosmically, reveal that within the nature of humans themselves lie metaphysical signals for immortality, and this is explored by philosophy. Then, through the efforts of visionary science, the optimism of designing digital consciousness reveals a scientific spirit of this century, although it seems to deal with heavy or controversial challenges. However, through all this study, it is increasingly realized that human nature and consciousness can be deep rational basis for the analysis of immortality

Abstract

This study aims to explore the root causes of hatred from the perspective of classical Islamic philosophy by analyzing key concepts such as nafs (soul), ghadhab (anger), ‘aql (intellect), and hikmah (wisdom) in the works of prominent Muslim philosophers: Al-Ghazali, Al-Farabi, and Ibn Miskawayh. The research is motivated by the increasing prevalence of hate speech and polarization in the digital public sphere, which reflects a deeper moral and spiritual crisis. Using a qualitative approach with library research and a historical-hermeneutic method, the study conducts a conceptual analysis of classical texts and links their insights to contemporary social phenomena. The findings indicate that hatred is not merely an emotional outburst but a symptom of moral failure, stemming from the dominance of uncontrolled desires and the marginalization of ethical reasoning. Al-Ghazali emphasizes that unmanaged anger (ghadhab) leads to destructive hatred when not purified through tazkiyatun nafs. Al-Farabi highlights the integrative role of intellect and heart, while Ibn Miskawayh underscores the importance of ethical training (riyāḍatu al-nafs) to prevent moral decay. These philosophical perspectives offer a comprehensive ethical framework for addressing hatred, surpassing the limitations of purely legal or psychological approaches. The implications of this study affirm the need for moral and spiritual education in both formal and informal institutions. It suggests integrating Islamic philosophical ethics into public policy and educational curricula as a preventive measure against hatred in digital and social spaces. The originality of this research lies in its synthesis of classical Islamic philosophical ethics with current global challenges, offering an alternative epistemological foundation for contemporary hate studies.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the dimension of mysticism in Ibn Sina’s system of thought-an Islamic rationalist thinker who in several of his works shows deep spiritual-mystical tendencies. Using the approach of falsafi Sufism and a qualitative method based on literature study, this article examines major works such as Al-Isharat wa al-Tanbihat, Hayy Ibn Yaqzan, Risalah fi Mahiyyah al-Shalat and Risalah fi Mahiyyah al-’Ishq. The results show that although Ibn Sina was not a Sufi in the traditional sense, his thought contains traces and elements of typical philosophical mysticism, such as the doctrine of divine love, gnostic (al-arif), human connection with God (al-wushul), the doctrine of happiness, and so on. In conclusion, Ibn Sina’s system of thought is a harmonious synthesis between rationality and spirituality, between logic and intuition. Hence, these findings open a new space for dialogue between philosophy and Sufism in the Islamic intellectual tradition.

Abstract

This article aims to explore and analyze the philosophical dimensions within the classical novel Hayy ibn Yaqzan by Ibn Tufail through the lens of literary philosophy. The objective is to analyze how philosophical themes such as the nature of life, self-awareness, human uniqueness, and the search for truth are embedded within a literary narrative. Using a philosophical-literary method, this research interprets the symbolic and imaginative elements in the novel by applying both philosophical inquiry and literary analysis. The method involves examining the character development, internal conflicts, and narrative structure of the protagonist, Hayy, in relation to broader philosophical questions. The results reveal that Hayy ibn Yaqzan is not merely a work of fiction but a narrative deeply infused with philosophical reflection. The novel presents a rich exploration of human consciousness, ethical reasoning, and metaphysical inquiry through allegorical storytelling. Furthermore, the analysis indicates that philosophical literature can serve as a powerful tool to bridge imaginative fiction with rational thought, demonstrating that literary works can embody both artistic expression and intellectual depth

Abstract

The feasibility of a private language, a concept previously entertained by philosophers like Locke and Russell, is rigorously disputed by Wittgenstein in his later works. This article critically examines Wittgenstein’s standpoint on the notion of a private language, with a specific focus on its plausibility. It meticulously investigates the five arguments proffered by Wittgenstein against the concept of a private language and evaluates the counterarguments presented by his critics. These arguments encompass the future use argument, the interpretation argument, the stage-setting argument, the use argument, and the practice argument. Through a comprehensive analysis of these arguments, Wittgenstein substantiates the intrinsic unattainability of a private language. A privately defined word lacks the fundamental attributes of language, notably an established meaning, usability, prospective applicability, practical implications, interpretability, and a coherent framework governing the roles of its constituent elements. Ultimately, it is asserted that a private language cannot exist autonomously, separate from a public language.
The Concept of Divine Oneness: A Synthesis Between Sufistic Tauhid and Mulla Sadra’s Philosophy of Wujud Lutfi, Muhammad; Riyadi, Abdul Kadir

Abstract

This article discusses the relationship between Mulla Sadra's philosophy of existence and the sufistic concept of monotheism. Tauhid as an Islamic paradigm can be seen from several levels, including the belief that there is no God but Allah; experience and witness to the Oneness of Allah; and the philosophical construction of experience and witness to the Oneness of Allah. Tauhid in the first point reflects the general theological view, while the second and third points reflect the Sufism paradigm. And according to the theologians, the philosophical construction of the Oneness of God, which is called wahdah al-wujud, among other things, has come out of the Islamic creed. At that point, Mulla Sadra can become a strategic bridge because he synthesizes various previous philosophies into a distinctive philosophical system. From the building of his philosophy, Sadra has three important parts that talk about the philosophy of Being: asalah al-wujud, wahdah al- wujud, and tashqiq al- wujud. This philosophy of being will be dissected through the sufistic paradigm to provide an answer whether sufistic monotheism has violated the Islamic creed. The approach used is descriptiveanalysis. The main finding is that Mulla Sadra's philosophy of being is still related to monotheism, especially sufi monotheism, because Sadra does not deny Allah as the One Supreme Being, nor does he carry the idea of mono-existentialism like Ibn Arabi, which is the main goal of the theologians' criticism

Abstract

This article examines Jalaluddin Rumi's thoughts on the concept of love as the basis for religious moderation. This article originates from a literature review or literature review to explain descriptively and discuss Jalaluddin Rumi's thoughts on the concept of love as the basis for religious moderation. In this article, the approach used is the Philosophical-Sufistic approach to the thoughts brought by Rumi, namely the concept of love. Jalaluddin Rumi answered and thoroughly discussed the concept of love as the basis for religious moderation in the book "Diwan As-Shams al-Din at-Thabrizi, Matsnawi, and Fihi Ma Fihi". The findings are that the existence of religious moderation is to encourage healthy religious practices, mutual understanding, mutual love, mutual respect and respect, and promote peace missions among all people, regardless of differences in their religious beliefs. Then related to Rumi's thoughts about love can be connected with the concept of religious moderation through four perspectives, namely unity of purpose and religion of love, tolerance and respect, unity with God, and love as self-transformation. Based on these four perspectives, Jalaluddin Rumi's overall thoughts about love offer a strong philosophical foundation for religious moderation. Then, if linked in the context of moderation, Rumi's thought teaches that it is important to view religion as a source of inspiration in life to achieve unity, peace, and respect among religious communities.

Abstract

This article discusses Ibn Sina’s concept of love. Through this concept, the researcher wants to show that Ibn Sina's thought is not only identical to empirical, logical, and rational peripatetic philosophy, but also Sufistic. This study employed a qualitative method using a philosophical tasawwuf approach. The results show that everything that exists – whether animate or not – contains the energy of love in itself. Essentially, love is a manifestation of Allah, The Essence, who has qualities of Absolute Goodness and Perfection. In this case, God is The Subject of Love. Second, God as Absolute Goodness and Perfection is The Object of Love–the final destination movement of all that exists. Finally, through true love, people can be connected with their God, occupy the highest position, and achieve true happiness. According to Ibn Sina, humans in this stage are called Arif.

Abstract

This article aims to elaborate on how Emmanuel Levinas' discourse on the ethics of responsibility applies to the humanitarian crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Levinas offers a concrete ethical concept for addressing humanitarian issues, distinguishing himself from earlier ethical philosophy experts. The research method employed is qualitative, utilizing a literature review approach. The findings and discussion reveal that Levinas' perspective on the ethics of responsibility emphasizes concrete responsibility in encounters with the 'Face of the Other'. Furthermore, responsibility represents a form of human identity from a humanitarian perspective when facing the COVID-19 pandemic. According to Levinas, unconditional responsibility is not something we receive or a rule we agree to bind ourselves to, but rather something that exists before we make any decisions. Unconsciously, we already have unlimited responsibility towards others. The conclusion drawn is that adhering to health protocols is a concrete manifestation of Levinas' ethics of responsibility in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, as it is oriented towards the safety of others. Levinas' ethics of responsibility is asymmetrical. The ethical discourse on responsibility discussed in this study is limited to the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, thus it has limitations in broader explanations. Although Levinas' grand ideas may not suffice to solve all the ethical issues we face, their strength lies in reminding us of the inherent nature of ethical demands that should underpin all moral theories. Levinas invites us to reconsider the essence of ethical responsibility, which transcends formal rules and agreements, towards a deeper understanding of our relationships with others
