In Islam, this concept can be linked to acts of worship that involve the use of natural elements, such as wudu (ablution). Wudu is not only a physical purification ritu...
The science of 'Ilal al-Hadīth is a vital branch of 'Ulūm al-Hadīth, with numerous key works in the field. One frequently cited work is Al-'Ilal al-Saghīr by al-Tirmizī, traditionally classified under 'Ilal al-Hadīth. However, its structure and discussion raise questions about whether it fits better within Uṣūl al-Hadīth. This study compares Al-'Il...
Ekoterapi semakin diterima dalam bidang perubatan moden, yang menekankan peranan terapeutik alam sekitar dalam menyokong kesejahteraan mental. Walaupun ekoterapi diakui secara meluas dalam amalan kesihatan kontemporari, tiada kajian komprehensif yang meneroka konsep ini dalam kerangka Perubatan Nabawi (Tibb Nabawi). Tibb Nabawi menggabungkan elemen...

To date, there has been no specific research on t...

This study aims to examine the thoughts, movements of iṣlāḥ (reform) and tajdīd (renewal) of Abū Ḥāmid al-Ghazālī (d. 1111) and their relevance to the contemporary da‘wah. Based on a descriptively qualitative method and socio-historical approaches, this study shows that Al-Ghazālī prioritized self-reform before societal engagement. Al-Ghazālī empha...

This study was conducted with the aim of s...
Studies on women in Islam continue to evolve despite having long been a focus of academic attention.

In hadith historiography, the Muqaddima ( Introduction ) of Ibn al-Ṣalāḥ (d. 643/1245) marked the beginning of a new era in the preservation of hadith sciences. It determined the direction of the discourse of hadith for centuries and inaugurated a cultural revolution in the Mamluk era. This article aims at explaining why and how the phenomenon occu...

Thus, this study aims to identify the factors influencing the inculcation of no...
This article examines the stance held by a Meccan-Indonesian exegete in the 13 AH or 19 AD century, Muḥammad Nawawī al-Bantānī (d. 1230–1314 H/1813–1897 AD), in dealing with Ṣifāt verses in his exegetical work, Marāḥ Labīd li Kashf Ma’nā al-Qur’ān al-Majīd . As an established term, Ṣifāt verses refer to Quranic expressions that ostensibly ascribe a...

The anthropomorphism remains one of the most contested topics in current Sunni theological discourse between Ash'arites and the Salafis. The polemic is mainly based on how one should interpret anthropomorphic expressions found in certain religious texts. This paper aims at explicating al-Ghazālī's method in dealing with the ambiguous hadiths on div...
Antropomorfisme terus menjadi salah satu topik terpenting dalam wacana akidah Sunni pada hari ini antara kalangan Ash’ari dan Salafi. Polemik tentang perkara ini sebahagian besarnya dibina di atas persoalan bagaimana mentafsirkan ungkapan antropomorfistik yang terkandung dalam teks-tekas agama. Artikel ini akan mendedahkan metode al-Ghazālī dalam m...
The plunder of values and noble morals is being eroded due to too many dark paths that are the crossroads of life in the world of today's young generation.

How ṣifāt traditions (hadiths with explicit anthropomorphic content) should be construed remains contentious in the history of Islamic theology. Contrary to most other Islamic scholars, the Hanbalites and modern Salafis prohibit all forms of interpretation, especially ta’wīl (figurative reading). In their perspective, ta’wīl reflects rationalistic...
Contrary to the majority of scholars who interprets maqām maḥmūd (Quran 17:79) as intercession, the Hanbalites of Baghdad opine that the phrase means “Muhammad will be seated beside God on the throne.” They based their interpretation on an athar (saying) of an early Quran exegete, Mujāhid bin Jabr (d. 104H/722AD). Due to its apparent anthropomorphi...
How to understand the content of Hadis Sifat is one of the most contested topics in the history of Islamic theology. In short, Hadis Sifat is a term for certain hadiss that seem to assign human attributes to God.

Buku sederhana yang merakamkan himpunan nasihat Rasulullah SAW kepada pemimpin. Dalam hal kepimpinan, wacana ketaatan, kepatuhan, atau walak kepada pemimpin adalah persoalan yang sangat penting.

Penulis berusaha membuktikan kepakaran al-Shāfi'ī d...
Disagreement over the authenticity of hadith (prophetic tradition) is a common event in hadith discourse. A hadith that authenticated as sound by a critic sometimes is judged as weak by other. This reality sparked question on best method in dealing with such cases. The topic is understudied until 'Abd al-Ḥay Laknawī (1848-1886) proposed four rules...
The sifat traditions (ahadith al-sifat) is a term that refers to certain prophetic sayings with ostensibly anthropomorphic content. In dealing with such traditions, most traditionalists (ahl al-hadith) of the 3rd and 4th/9th and 10th century applied an approach that accepts its literal meaning without questioning how (bila kayfa). In the mid-5th/11...
