Da'wah and Religious Harmony, Harmony in the Nation and State

Da'wah normatively has a positive impact on the people, because the da'wah conveyed is a manifestation of God's love and affection for mankind. In its implementation, the preaching delivered by religious figures often raises problems regarding harmony between religious communities and between religions. So it is hoped that da'wah can become a tool for developing the values of tolerance between religious communities and between religions, so that tolerance creates harmony in social life, and upholds the rights of each citizen. The approach used in this research is a qualitative method. This research shows that da'wah delivered properly and correctly in accordance with the demands of Islamic teachings can have a positive impact on life both personally, in the community, in society and in the state. This harmony is created if the values of tolerance and moderation can be developed by involving several elements including, elements of the government, elements of religious figures, systems or regulations that have been established as well as, public trust in the values of truth that are adhered to and the methods of preaching that are used. In creating harmony between religious communities and between religions, we return to the da'wah methods stated in the Al-Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad.

Then, religious law which prohibits the interfaith marriage must be revied and understood in its context to strive for the salvation of the religious people.

Harmonisasi dan keselarasan hidup dalam cerpen Harta Gantungan karya Ahmad Tohari

Kang Nurya's persistence in preserving buffalo as the hanged treasure is the center of the story discussed in the "Harta Gantungan" storiette. Although the neck swelling could take his life, Kang Nurya believes that death is a human cycle and chooses not to seek medical treatment. Kang Nurya believes that the consequences of medical expenses will have implications for the sale of his favorite buffalo, which is actually prepared for the cost of taking care of his body later. A discussion about this then took place with Markotob, who also believes that death is a destiny that must be faced. However, the way to prepare for it is not like Kang Nurya's thinking. The dialog between the two brings out the balance of views on the concept of death. The purpose of this research is to find the balance through harmonization and harmony of life based on the author's worldview. The theory used is Lucien Goldmann's genetic structuralism and Mukařovský's literary aesthetics with a literary sociology approach.

아유르베다와 중국 전통의학의 생명관 연구

The purpose of this paper is to examine the life view of Ayurveda and Chinese traditional medicine. Ayurveda, a traditional Indian medicine, recognizes human life as a combination of mind, sensory function, body, and soul. Since both the world and humans are made up of 5 elements, it can also be seen from the basic premise of “the same as the world and humans” that changes in the external environment affect humans as they are. In traditional Chinese medicine based on yin and yang theory, it is recognized that life is born by the natural energy of heaven and earth. Life is well illustrated in the “Cheonin Sangyeung Thought”, which assumes that all nature and humans are connected and corresponding. The two traditional medicine are characterized by the identity that all living things affect each other while maintaining their respective values, and the individuality that all living things have different physical characteristics. Its view of life teaches us that ethical life, harmonious life with the outside world, peace of mind and governance are paramount.
