Transformasi Hukum Islam di Indonesia: Dari Tradisi Historis Menuju Integrasi Hukum Nasional

Mursyid Fikri — 2025-12-11

Indonesia, as a nation with a Muslim-majority population, presents its own dynamics in the development of national law. This article aims to analyze the processes of transformation and integration of Islamic law into Indonesia’s national legal system from both historical and contemporary perspectives. Employing historical, normative, and sociological approaches, this study traces the trajectory of Islamic law from the era of Islamic kingdoms in the archipelago and the colonial period to its institutionalization in the modern national legal framework through regulations such as the 1974 Marriage Law, the Compilation of Islamic Law, and the recognition of Sharia in Aceh. The findings indicate that Islamic law functions not only as a cultural and religious legacy but also as a normative pillar that strengthens the national legal system. Its integration has occurred through legislative channels, the religious court system, and public policies that are harmonized with the values of Pancasila and the Constitution. Nevertheless, this process continues to face challenges, particularly in reconciling Sharia-based norms with principles of human rights and gender equality. This article underscores the need for a contextual fiqh approach and the application of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah so that Islamic law may serve as an instrument of substantive justice that is adaptable to Indonesia’s legal and social pluralism.

Kajian Semantik Kata Qadha dalam Al-Quran: Relevansinya terhadap Koping Religius di Era Modern

Asma Laili Hanifah — 2025-12-11

This study examines the semantic dimensions of the Qur’anic term qadha’ by analyzing its basic meanings, derivations, and contextual functions through syntagmatic and paradigmatic approaches. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the research employs semantic analysis as its primary instrument, drawing data from classical and contemporary lexicons, tafsir works, and concordance-based occurrences of qadha’ in the Qur’an, which appear 56 times in various morphological forms. The syntagmatic analysis explores the relational meaning of qadha’ within its surrounding linguistic structures, revealing its functions in expressing divine decree, legal decisions, fulfillment, completion, and finalization of matters. The paradigmatic analysis compares qadha’ with semantically related terms such as amr, faradha, and atamma, as well as its antonyms like naqadha and ajjala, showing how semantic oppositions and equivalences contribute to the formation of its conceptual range. The findings indicate that qadha’ represents not merely a theological notion but a comprehensive semantic structure that affirms the absoluteness of God’s will in creation, legislation, lifespan, and the resolution of affairs. Furthermore, the study demonstrates that the semantic understanding of qadha’ has significant implications for religious coping, as the belief in divine decree fosters active acceptance, emotional regulation, spiritual connectedness, and resilience when facing psychological and existential pressures. In conclusion, the concept of qadha’ provides a theological foundation that reinforces positive religious coping strategies and remains relevant for addressing the uncertainties and stressors of modern life.

Education Philosophical Dimensions of Artificial Intelligence in Islamic Religious and Legal Education

Adi Putra — 2025-12-11

Kecerdasan Buatan (Artificial Intelligence/AI) kini menjadi elemen penting dalam pendidikan modern, termasuk dalam studi Islam dan pendidikan hukum. Meskipun AI menawarkan efisiensi dan akses informasi yang luas, penggunaannya yang cepat memerlukan refleksi filosofis agar tidak menggeser nilai dasar pendidikan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi kepustakaan atau yuridis normatif yang dipadukan dengan pendekatan komparatif dan analisis kualitatif untuk menelaah perubahan yang ditimbulkan AI terhadap proses pembelajaran. Secara ontologis, ketergantungan pada AI mengubah pola interaksi belajar dari hubungan langsung antarpendidik dan peserta didik menjadi proses yang lebih dimediasi teknologi. Dari sisi epistemologis, tantangan utama ialah menjaga keaslian produksi dan penyampaian pengetahuan ketika alat AI dapat memengaruhi cara berpikir yang sebelumnya dibangun melalui upaya manusia. Secara aksiologis, pemanfaatan AI harus berada dalam batas etika, moral, dan integritas akademik agar tidak mengurangi nilai-nilai dasar pembelajaran. Penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya kebijakan pendidikan Agma Islam yang seimbang antara penggunaan AI dan penguatan kompetensi manusia. Rekomendasi utama mencakup penyusunan pedoman literasi AI yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan pendidikan Agama Islam dan hukum, serta pengembangan sistem evaluasi yang menekankan orisinalitas dan proses. Dengan demikian, AI dapat berfungsi sebagai alat pendukung tanpa menghilangkan nilai kemanusiaan dalam pendidikan.

Makna Simbolik Bale dalam Ritual Keagamaan Melayu Muslim Tanjungbalai: Studi Fenomenologis

Ramli Ramadhan — 2025-12-11

This study investigates the symbolic meanings of bale in Malay Muslim family rituals in Tanjungbalai and how they sustain social cohesion. Despite its ubiquity, prior research rarely maps the moral grammar of bale, traces intergenerational transmission, or specifies the minimum etiquette that legitimizes recent variations. Using a qualitative phenomenological cultural design, we collected data through nonparticipant observation at khataman, aqiqah, and upah upah; in depth semi structured interviews with religious leaders, adat figures, artisans and organizers, and household members; and document review. The researcher served as the primary instrument. Thematic analysis consisted of iterative coding, theme development, and verification, supported by triangulation, member checking, and an audit trail to ensure trustworthiness. Findings show that bale functions as a value laden sign system rather than ornamentation. Core elements include pulut, egg, inti made from coconut and palm sugar, meat, cover or symmetry, and tiered placement; together they index gratitude, adab, solidarity, sacrifice, and orderly conduct. Although forms vary by event and family preference, the aims of gratitude, etiquette, and silaturahim remain stable. Modernization introduces looser color palettes and occasional uncovered bale, which are accepted when minimum etiquette and communal legitimacy are preserved. Youth knowledge is shaped by family practice and by guidance from religious and adat authorities. The study specifies simple etiquette thresholds and practical supports—concise documentation, intergenerational education, and local leadership—to sustain bale as a medium for transmitting Islamic Malay values and strengthening social bonds.

Transformasi Pendidikan Karakter dan Akhlak: Peran Pendidikan Islam dalam Era Industri

Ade Putra Hayat — 2025-12-26

The industrial era brought profound transformations in the social, economic, and educational order, while presenting serious challenges to the formation of character and morals. The dominance of the logic of efficiency, instantaneousness, and individualism has the potential to erode the foundations of moral values that are transcendent and require a long-term internalization process. This research aims to analyze the impact of changes in industrial civilization on the construction of moral values, identify the basic principles of Islamic education in character formation, and explore its role as a mechanism of social transformation in the midst of secular paradigm hegemony. Using the library research method, this study analyzes primary sources of classical Islam—such as the thought of Ibn Miskawaih and al-Ghazali—as well as secondary sources in the form of scientific journals and contemporary studies. The findings show that Islamic education offers a holistic framework that places morality as the main axis of tarbiyah, not just a curricular complement. Principles such as tazkiyat al-nafs, uswah hasanah, and the integration of knowledge-charity-morals remain relevant when reinterpreted contextually in the digital ecosystem. More than that, Islamic education has the potential to be a balancing force that reconstructs the relationship between technology, ethics, and social responsibility, thus ensuring that the progress of civilization remains on the side of a whole humanity

Implementasi Pendekatan Transdisipliner Dalam Pembelajaran Wahdatul Ulum di UIN Sumatera Utara Medan

Mohammad Al Farabi — 2026-01-02

This research is motivated by the limited studies on the transdisciplinary approach in teaching Wahdatul Ulum at UIN Sumatera Utara Medan, even though it has a significant impact on UIN Sumatera Utara as a state Islamic university (PTKIN) with strategic potential to implement this approach. However, limitations are still found in its implementation. This study aims to examine the practice of implementing the transdisciplinary approach in teaching the Wahdatul Ulum course, especially in the Islamic religious education (PAI) study program at UIN North Sumatra. This study used a phenomenological qualitative design to understand students' experiences regarding the implementation of a transdisciplinary approach in the Wahdatul Ulum course at UIN North Sumatra. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and documentation. Analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions within the framework of phenomenological analysis. Data validity was strengthened through source triangulation and member checking. All procedures adhered to research ethics, including participation consent and identity confidentiality. The findings imply that lecturers need to enhance their role as facilitators capable of managing cross-disciplinary learning and providing examples of real knowledge integration. At the PAI study program curriculum level, it is necessary to strengthen designs based on learning outcomes that support scientific synthesis, including the provision of modules and collaborative learning scheme.

Epistemologi Tauhidik-Integratif sebagai Kritik terhadap Sains Modern: Analisis Pemikiran Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas dan Seyyed Hossein Nasr

Yuldelasharmi Yuldelasharmi — 2026-01-02

This article examines the Islamization of science as an epistemological response to the crisis of modern science characterized by the secularization of knowledge, fragmentation of disciplines, and the separation between facts, values, and transcendental meaning. The analysis focuses on the thought of Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas and Seyyed Hossein Nasr as two leading Muslim intellectuals who offer fundamental critiques of the modern scientific paradigm from the perspective of Islamic epistemology. Rather than merely comparing their ideas, this study aims to formulate a conceptual synthesis that advances the theoretical discourse on the Islamization of science. Employing a qualitative approach with an epistemological–comparative analysis of the primary works of al-Attas and Nasr, the study is complemented by literature from the philosophy of science and contemporary debates on the crisis of knowledge. The findings reveal that al-Attas emphasizes the purification of the concept of knowledge and the formation of an Islamic worldview grounded in adab, while Nasr underscores the necessity of resacralizing science through metaphysical and cosmological awareness. Based on these analyses, the article proposes a tauhidic–integrative epistemology as its main theoretical contribution, positioning tawḥīd as the unifying principle of revelation, reason, and empirical experience in the development of knowledge. This study argues that the Islamization of science should be understood as a constructive epistemological project with continued relevance for global discussions on science, ethics, and civilizational sustainability.
