Through his exegesis, Misbah criticized social, political, and religious issues in Indonesia. The issues he highlighted, including how he formed his criticism, and its political as well as scholarly ramifications, are the focus of this study. Using descriptive, historical and explanatory methods, this article presents interesting and important findings. First, Misbah was an Indonesian ulama who started to publicly criticize the New Order regime’s policies and Muslims’ behaviors who were deemed inconsistent with Islamic values. In the midst of a hegemonic and repressive political system, Misbah’s attitude was a high risk and faced with political pressure from the New Order regime.

John, and Howard M. Federspiel, generally do not relate to the tradition and culture of pesantren. In fact, as the oldest Islamic educational institution in Indonesia, pesantren has a dynamic and complex history and tradition of Qur'anic interpretation literacy. This article examines one side of the tradition of Qur'anic interpretation in pesantren through Tafsir Surah Yasinby Kyai Bisri Mustafa. This book of tafsir was selected; in addition to representing the tradition of interpretation in pesantren, science is used to explain the messages of the Qur'an in it. In this book, the explanation of science is not used as a justification for the scientificity of the Qur'an, nor is it used as a way to Islamise science, but as an affirmation of the spiritual aspects and implicit messages of the Qur'anic text. Axiologically, Kyai Bisri uses the scientific ...

Both of these aspects were studied through Popongan manuscripts kept at Popongan Pesantren, Klaten, Central Java. The Popongan manuscript was derived from the study notes and a copy of the text referenced in the study at the pesantren. A large number of manuscripts were written and copied by Kyai Muhammad Muqri, one of the kyai at Popongan Pesantren. Through this study, Popongan manuscripts were positioned as social and cultural products, so that interactions, social relationships, and interests in them can be properly expressed. The research showed that the fields of knowledge studied in pesantren were diverse, including fiqh, grammar, theology, Sufism, and history. This diverse field of knowledge was well transmitted through kyai-santri networks. In addition, the kyai also criticized religious views that were inconsistent with Islamic principles. For example, th...

However, many studies have yet to adequately address the effects of Islamic religious-based rituals on mental health among Muslims. The present study investigated the impact of a purposefully designed Islamic religion-based intervention on reducing depression and anxiety disorders among Muslim patients using a randomised controlled trial design. A total of 62 Muslim patients (30 women and 32 men) were divided by gender into two groups, with each group assigned randomly to either treatment or control groups. The participants who received the Islamicbased intervention were compared to participants who received the control intervention. Taylor's (cite date) manifest anxiety scale and Steer and Beck's (cite the date) depression scale were used to examine the effects on depression and anxiety levels. ANCOVA results revealed that the Islamic intervention significantly reduced anxiety levels in women (d = 0.75) and depression levels in men (d = 0.80) compared to the typical care control groups.

This research aims to clarify the concept of human being in the light of the Qur’ān.

Perbincangan sedia ada dalam aspek undang-undang masih diletakkan di bawah kategori golongan OKU secara umum dan tidak dirujuk secara kursus terhadap golongan autistik yang mempunyai perbezaan sikap dan tindakan mereka. Kemudian dari perspektif hukum Islam pula, didapati bahawa golongan autistik dikategorikan sebagai penyakit mental disebabkan tahap kematangan yang masih rendah dan tidak terkeluar daripada kategori kanak-kanak yang sudah mumayyiz. Ada juga yang mengatakan seperti kanak-kanak yang belum mumayyiz. Jadi, pengkategoriannya ini mempengaruhi kepada keperluan dalam pelaksanaan ibadah dan segala taklifan yang lain dalam agama.

Ahmad al-Fatani who is the subject of discussion in this present paper had written several manuscripts that can be categorized under the earliest writings in field of Hadith. Even though the obvious integral subjects of the writings were on similar discussions on tasawuf and fiqh, however he was evaluated and judged by his successors as a very meticulous and vigilant scholar with regards to transmitting Hadiths. He wrote both in Arabic and Malay languages. Among his manuscripts which were classified by Wan Mohd Saghir Abdullah as works on Hadith are Kitab Bisyaratul ‘Amilin Wa Nazaratul Ghafilin. This paper examines the main idea of his work which is considered as a reference in traditional madrasah system in the region.

This situation is exposing the phenomenon of Islam's growth in the Peninsular Malaysia earlier from the Borneo Isle where it has been receiving Islam during the 15 century of Masihi intermediated by al-Makhdum. Thus, this argumentation is at least th influencing the history and the situation of Islam's development of the Borneo especially in Sabah amongst the native people. Nevertheless it is indisputable if we assumed that the empirical battle to authorize religion of Islam from the Peninsular Malaysia has empower an inducement towards the local fundamentalists to accentuate the Islamic spiritual da'wah at Sabah until Islam has been the official religion of the state. Hence, from the prepared revision and analytical reflection, we shall examine and explore the history as well as the growth of Islam's prospect especially at Sabah by considering the aspect of Islamization reality and current religious activities including Christianization. We also explore the development's factors, institution and also the person in authority towards this issue. It is adequate to highlight that Islam's nuance at Sabah, which situated in the north of Borneo Isle, is multi-dimensional in its characteristic, which is in itself is a unique state in the country.
