Kauthar Abd Kadir, Mesbahul Hoque, Abdulloh Salaeh — Sun, 30 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0800

Surah Al-Kahf represents one of the important examples in the pedagogical approach, and among the etiquettes of Surah Al-Kahf is the learner accompanying the scholar, and the follower accompanying the follower. The etiquettes of the scholar and the learner therein bless the act of following, as the verses of the Surah illustrate these etiquettes through clear situations in its narrative context. The study aims to uncover the etiquettes of dialogue in seeking knowledge through the dialogue between Moses (peace be upon him) and Al-Khidr, derived from Surah Al-Kahf. The study utilized the inductive and descriptive methods. The study addressed several key points, namely: first, the importance of dialogue. Second, dialogue in Surah Al-Kahf: where Quranic stories dominate in Surah Al-Kahf. Third, the etiquettes of dialogue in Surah Al-Kahf, including: gentleness in dialogue, returning knowledge to Allah, good listening, choosing appropriate words, and showing empathy towards interlocutors. The study concluded by highlighting the most significant findings, including considering the Quran as a source of etiquettes in nurturing a generation capable of accepting and coexisting with others in a multicultural society. Surah Al-Kahf, among the chapters of the Quran, encapsulates many etiquettes of dialogue that must be cultivated and activated in education and upbringing.

ABSTRACT The career of wedding photography is considered significant by society today in capturing beautiful moments during one's special day as the bride and groom. However, based on current realities, many photographers neglect the issues of halal (permissible) and haram (forbidden) in their pursuit of income to sustain their livelihoods. This study aims to discuss the issues and challenges existing in the profession of wedding photography. Employing a qualitative method through a literature review, the study also includes interviews with several religious experts to address the issues under scrutiny. The research findings indicate that it is generally permissible to earn a livelihood as a wedding photographer.

ANALISIS PENSEJARAHAN KARYA KRITIKAN HASAN KÂFÎ TERHADAP PENTADBIRAN TENTERA TURKI OSMANLI BERMULA ABAD KE 16 HINGGA AWAL KE 17 DAN PENGENALAN KONSEP JIHAD ULAMA BOSNIA ERA PERTENGAHAN

Amer Hudhaifah bin Hamzah — Sun, 30 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0800

Abstrak Jihad merupakan aktiviti paling aktif yang dijalankan kerajaan Turki Osmanlı sebagai kaedah dakwah terutama sekali di wilayah-wilayah Kristian di benua Eropah. Tetapi, beberapa sultan Osmanlı dikaburi kemewahan dunia setelah berjaya menakluk kota Constantinople pada 1453. Hal ini mengundang kritikan dari ulama Bosnia, Hasan Kâfî el-Akhisârî. Justeru penelitian bertujuan menganalisis kritikan beliau terhadap aspek ketenteraan kerajaan Osmanlı menerusi kitab Usul al-Hikam fi Nizam al-^cAlam. Kajian ini berbentuk deskriptif dan dianalisis secara kualitatif. Tahapan-tahapan kajian boleh diringkaskan seperti berikut: 1) pembacaan teks karya, 2) menyorot aspek-aspek penting, dan 3) membandingkannya dengan rujukan utama sejarah Osmanlı. Hasilnya, dapat difahami jihad dan pentadbiran tentera bagi Hasan Kâfî merupakan manifestasi penghayatan ayat-ayat suci al-Qur’an, al-Sunnah dan ungkapan hikmah. Jihad bertujuan merealisasikan keadilan sejagat. Menerusi sistem jihad, sultan diberi mandat ilahi sebagai Nizam al-^cAlam. Tetapi kepincangan yang terjadi pada 1595 menunjukkan wujudnya kelemahan dalam institusi pentadbiran kerajaan. Aspek ketenteraan, Hasan Kâfî menekankan kepentingan pemantauan kesiapsiagaan tentera secara berkala. Perkembangan teknologi persenjataan musuh perlu disaingi bagi mengelakkan tentera Islam ketinggalan dalam menggunakan senjata moden. Jika sultan memasuki medan tempur, baginda seharusnya tidak meninggalkan panji selain perlu berstrategi mengaburi pihak musuh. Pemimpin tentera harus sentiasa memupuk sifat sabar, teguh dan berani dalam hati anggotanya. Hasan Kâfî sangat menekankan soal iman sebagai faktor kejayaan kerana beliau melihat kemenangan (الظفر) berkait rapat dengan pertolongan dari Allah s.w.t. Justeru beliau menjadikan teras keduanya adalah kebaikan (الصلاح) dan ketakwaan (التقوى). Sebaliknya keingkaran (العصيان) dan melampaui batas (البغي) diletakkan sebagai faktor kegagalan. Beliau juga mengatakan gencatan senjata adalah baik dan memerangi orang yang meminta perlindungan adalah suatu kesalahan terbesar seorang ketua tentera.

Abstract Jihad was the most active endeavor conducted by the Ottoman Turkish government as a method of proselytization, particularly in the Christian territories of Europe. However, several Ottoman sultans became enamored with worldly luxuries after successfully conquering the city of Constantinople in 1453. This invited criticism from Bosnian scholar Hasan Kâfî el-Akhisârî. Therefore, this study aims to analyze his critique of the Ottoman military aspects through his work Usul al-Hikam fi Nizam al-^cAlam. The study is descriptive in nature and analyzed qualitatively. The stages of the study can be summarized as follows: 1) reading the text of the work, 2) highlighting important aspects, and 3) comparing them with the main references of Ottoman history. As a result, it is understood that, for Hasan Kâfî, jihad and military administration were manifestations of the teachings of the holy verses of the Qur'an, the Sunnah, and wise sayings. Jihad aimed to realize universal justice. Through the system of jihad, the sultan was given divine mandate as Nizam al-^cAlam. However, the disarray that occurred in 1595 indicated weaknesses within the government administration. Regarding military aspects, Hasan Kâfî emphasized the importance of periodic monitoring of military readiness. He argued that the development of enemy weapon technology must be matched to prevent Islamic armies from falling behind in using modern weaponry. If the sultan entered the battlefield, he should not leave his banner and must strategize to deceive the enemy. Military leaders should constantly foster patience, steadfastness, and bravery in the hearts of their soldiers. Hasan Kâfî placed significant emphasis on faith as a factor of success, believing that victory (الظفر) was closely tied to the help of Allah S.W.T. Therefore, he considered that the core principles were goodness (الصلاح) and piety (التقوى). Conversely, disobedience (العصيان) and transgression (البغي) were seen as factors of failure. He also stated that a ceasefire was good and that fighting those seeking refuge was one of the greatest errors a military leader could commit.

FASILAH DALAM SURAH AL-ASR DAN AL-KAUTHAR: PENELITIAN DARI ASPEK FONETIK DAN PRAGMATIK

Issraq b. Ramli, Zaharom Ridzwan — Sun, 30 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0800

ABSTRAK Faṣilah Quran merupakan salah satu dari i’jaz Quran yang mewarnai kecantikan struktur ayat dan surah dalam al-Quran. Fasilah merupakan kedudukan bunyi akhir dalam sesuatu kalimah seperti rima dalam sajak. Setengah surah mempunyai fasilah yang berbeza-beza. Standard fasilah adalah berbeza setiap ayat dan surah berdasarkan panjang surah dan kedudukan surah. Surah al-Aṣr dan al-Kauthar mempunyai fasilah yang sama dengan penghujung huruf Rā’ atau fonem /r/. Artikel ini menjelaskan bagaimana fasilah bukan sekadar memperindahkan hujung setiap ayat yang serata tapi juga memberikan impak kepada makna suatu ayat dan surah. Huruf Ra’ mempunyai sifat yang tersendiri berbanding dengan huruf-huruf yang lain. Huruf Ra’ mempunyai satu sifat yang tidak dimiliki oleh huruf yang lain iaitu sifat ulangan (al-Takrir). Di sebalik sifat ulangan dalam dua surah itu, terdapat kaitan makna bagi setiap perkataan yang diakhiri dengan huruf Rā’. Kajian mendapati peranan huruf ra’ dalam pragmatik dua surah itu membawa maksud yang sangat signifikan bersesuaian dengan sifat huruf bagi kata yang yg dipilih dalam setiap ayat pertama, kedua, ketiga dalam kedua-dua surah.

ISLAM AND PSYCHOLOGY: THE ISLAMIZATION OF MODERN PSYCHOLOGY

Mohd Dahlan Abdul Malek — Sun, 30 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0800

ABSTRACT The majority of Muslim scholars concerned with the plight of the Muslim community (Ummah) have been deeply involved with the concept of Islamization of knowledge which gained momentum in the 80s as a result of the global consciousness for the "resurgence of Islam" in the 70s. Several phrases have been used to interpret this concept, such as the "Islamization of knowledge" and "Islamization of contemporary or present-day knowledge." However, the term "Islamization of knowledge" is, to a certain extent, misleading because it gives the connotation that all knowledge, including traditional Islamic knowledge, was developed by Muslim scholars over the millennium ad based on the Qur'an and the Sunnah, is not Islamic and therefore, needs to be Islamized. This article explores the intersection of Islam and psychology, delving into the dynamic relationship between these two fields. It examines how Islamic beliefs, values, and cultural practices influence the understanding of mental health and human behaviour. The discussion includes an exploration of the impact of Islamic principles on psychological well-being, such as concepts of Tawhid (oneness of God), Akhirah (the afterlife), and Qadar (divine predestination).This article also addresses the practical aspects of integrating Islamic teachings into psychological interventions, highlighting the role of Islamic practices, including prayer, fasting, and community engagement, in promoting mental well-being. The cultural sensitivity required in working with diverse Muslim populations is emphasized, as variations exist based on regional, linguistic, and cultural differences. This article embarks on a journey through the process of the Islamization of modern psychology, where Islamic principles, values and cultural context harmoniously meld with the framework of contemporary psychology. As the highest educational institution, the universities can contribute a significant role toward enhancing the Islamization of modern psychology projects that would serve Islam and support the reform and development efforts of the ummah in general and any Muslim society in particular.
