Perkembangan Agama Islam di Indonesia Pasca Kemerdekaan

This study aims to determine the development of Islam in Indonesia after independence shows significant dynamics. Since Indonesia's independence in 1945, Islam has undergone transformation in social, political, and cultural aspects. According to data from the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia, the number of Muslims in Indonesia is estimated to reach 227 million in 2021, making it the country with the largest Muslim population in the world. One important finding is the strengthening of the role of Islamic organizations in social and political life.

Social Problems of Islam in Modern Indonesia in Muslim Academic Periodicals

The purpose of the article is to analyse the modern Muslim intellectual tradition in Indonesia in the context of analysing the social problems of Islam. The novelty of the study lies in a comprehensive and comparative analysis of the main trends and directions in the development of Muslim social thought in modern Indonesia. Methodologically, the article is based on the principles proposed in intellectual and social history, which allows us to perceive Muslim intellectuals involved in the study of the social problems of the Ummah as an imagined community, and their ideas as invented traditions. The article analyses 1) the theoretical and methodological foundations of modern Indonesian sociology of Islam, 2) national specifics and regional features of the development of Islam in Indonesia in modern Muslim thought, 3) the problems of transformation and contradictions of the radicalization of Islam through the prism of understanding and interpreting this dimension of the modern social history of Islam. It is assumed that Muslim intellectuals make a significant contribution to the consolidation of modern identity by analysing both the social characteristics and characteristics of the Ummah, as well as the threats faced by the Indonesian model of Islam in a secular society in the context of the actualization of the ideas of radical Islam. The author's main conclusions include several points: 1) professional Muslim intellectuals make a major contribution to the development of modern Muslim sociology, 2) specialised journals published by Islamic universities play a leading role in the production and relaying of social knowledge based on Islam, 3) modern Muslim intellectual tradition is the subject to fragmentation, but, in general, the scientific tradition of the Ummah actualizes moderate trends in Islamic Sociology, based on the principles of interdisciplinarity.

Политизация российской исламской уммы: анализ некоторых зарубежных и отечественных теоретических подходов

Based on the analysis of the works of leading foreign and domestic authors, a study of theoretical approaches to the politicization of Islam in our country is conducted. The main approaches to the politicization of Islam, formulated in the works of foreign experts, are considered separately. The author comes to the conclusion that two approaches dominate in modern Western science. The first is, when the politicization of the Islamic Ummah is associated with the development and spread of Islamism as an extremely reactionary position of the Muslim worldview. The second, when it is proven that today's problems are associated not so much with Islam itself as with geopolitics, playing out the "Islamic factor". Two main approaches are also identified, to the politicization of the Russian Islamic Ummah, existing in domestic science, both recognizing the fact of politicization and denying this phenomenon.

Fuzzy logic-based barcode scanning system for food products halal identification

Halal status in food products is fundamental for Muslims and may be crucial for those who are allergic to non-halal ingredients when choosing suitable foods for consumption. However, with the rising demand for food products and the advancement of science and technology, contamination with non-halal substances is likely to occur in food production. Furthermore, some irresponsible food industry players tend to replace halal with non-halal ingredients to reduce costs. Therefore, it is crucial to identify the contents of halal food products to ensure compliance with the guidelines outlined by the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM). In this study, an integrated fuzzy logic barcode scanning system was developed to determine non-halal ingredients and traces in packaged food products. Although the information on food products can be easily accessed from the open-source web data bank, using the proposed fuzzy logic based-barcode scanning system to identify the authenticity of halal food products is an alternative option for providing accurate, reliable, and fast detection. The inputs for the fuzzy logic framework are halal logo, alcohol, animal fats, gelatin, ham, bacon, L-cysteine, lipase, mono-and diglycerides, pepsin, rennet, sodium stearoyl lactylate, vanilla extract, whey, and E-code of E120, E422, E441, E470, E542, and E904. On the other hand, the outputs are halal, uncertain, and non-halal. The fuzzy logic-based barcode system was able to identify the halal status for three different categories: samples with a halal logo, uncertain halal status samples, and non-halal samples.

Editorial: Embracing New Horizons

In September 2024, ‘ISRA International Journal of Islamic Finance’ (IJIF) has been rebranded, and its publication is being continued under a new title, ‘International Journal of Islamic Finance and Sustainable Development’ (IJIFSD), following an institutional collaboration between the Islamic Development Bank Institute (IsDBI) and INCEIF University. The collaboration in the publication of IJIFSD marks the interest of both institutions in driving innovative research to create more meaningful real-world impact and support sustainable economic development in societies. The collaboration brings the combined resources and expertise of the two institutions in providing a premier platform for showcasing cutting-edge research by synthesising the principles of Islamic finance and sustainable development practices. While IJIFSD will continue to be published by ISRA Research Management Centre, INCEIF University, it will now have the added leverage of IsDBI to support its sponsorship and ensure its open and free accessibility to readers. The new title incorporates the terms ‘sustainable development’ as a strategic move to align the journal with the evolving landscape of Islamic finance that promotes global sustainability goals and, thus, results in a journal that is broader in scope and coverage.

Platform: fostering a community of forward-thinking scholars, researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to share insights on issues of concern. Goal: providing practical solutions for sustainable economic development and showcasing Islamic finance’s role in creating shared prosperity.

Pendidikan Islam pada Masa Pembaharuan

During the time of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), the concept of education was not fully formed as we understand it today. However, through the Prophet's actions and efforts in spreading the teachings of Islam, he served not only as a teacher but also as a character builder. The Prophet's preaching successfully transformed the Arabs in Mecca, who were previously engaged in idol worship, into worshipers of the One God, Allah. Islamic education emphasizes the formation of mental attitudes reflected in tangible actions, both for the benefit of individuals and society. It not only focuses on theoretical aspects but also on the practical implementation of the teachings imparted. Islamic education encompasses the formation of faith and the practice of good deeds simultaneously, as well as aspects of individual and social education. The history of Islamic education has undergone various phases of development alongside the development of Islam itself, from the time of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to the leadership of the Caliphs in different Islamic states. However, along with the decline of the Muslim community, Islamic education has also experienced a similar decline. This study adopts a Literature Review approach, involving the collection of literature data through digital libraries and the internet, as well as the use of document studies on previous research findings. Journal searches were conducted through Google Scholar and academic literature related to Islamic education during the reform period.

PENYAKIT KULIT SEBAGAI PEMBANGUN STRUKTUR NARATIF: TINJAUAN NARATOLOGIS HIKAYAT AGUNG SAKTI KARYA MUHAMMAD BAKIR

This research aims to discover the role of skin diseases in the narrative structure of M. Bakir’s Hikayat Agung Sakti as well as its surrounding ideological, social, political, and cultural contexts. Mieke Bal’s narratological theory was applied to map and analyze the elements of the fabula: event, time, actor, and location. Methodologically, this research consisted of two levels: text and context. At the first level, lingual data were collected using the note-taking technique and then explained interpretatively using relevant theoretical concepts. At the second level, data were collected through literature study on ideology and context. The text and context data were explained through dialectics and interreference. This research yielded several main results. First, skin diseases (itches, smallpox, scabs, and Tinea corporis) are attached to the elements of the fabula. These diseases change circumstances, shape events and time, infect the characters (the Gods), and change the locations (from heaven to earth). Skin diseases were found to be the building block of the narrative structure. In this role, skin diseases become a means of articulating Islamism. This narrative is linked to the development of Islam in Malay-speaking lands and political resistance to polytheistic Hinduism, which is placed in opposition to the monotheistic Islam which places Allah as the only deity. This ideology was articulated and written down as a literary work to be disseminated among local Straits-born Chinese. This is also contextually related to the issues of manuscript rental, diseases in Malay tradition, and spread of diseases in Batavia in the 19th century.

Islam Di Komering Desa Betung Kec. Semendawai Barat, Kab. Oku Timur, Sumatera Selatan

The history of the entry and development of Islam in Komering Betung is one of the phenomena of the development of Islam in Indonesia, especially in South Sumatra. The presence of several ulama in the 16th to 18th centuries in the Komering area was a trigger for the development of Islam in Komering.

He is a Komering Muslim figure who is said to be the forerunner of Islam in Komering Betung. Islam in Komering had several triggers for its development, one of which, apart from the ulama who started arriving, was the end of the conflict between the Abung Tribe and the Komering Tribe in Komering in the 17th century. So after the conflict was over, the development of Islam spread further to the Uluan and Ilir areas, assisted by with the presence of Makkah scholars who gradually came to this area in the 18th century AD.

CALLIGRAPHY ART AS A MEDIUM OF DA'WAH IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ISLAM

Islamic boarding schools are known by the public because many of the works of students are introduced through culture and religion so that these works are known to the outside community. At Islamic boarding school students are also taught to study religion and deepen efforts to create a generation whose character is shaped in accordance with Islamic law. So it is no longer surprising if alumni of Islamic boarding schools are found who have good scientific character. If a work of calligraphy is found in a shop, the first thing that comes to mind is that the work is one of the works of Islamic boarding school children. So that it attracts the attention of parents to enter their children into Islamic boarding schools because of the works made by these students.

Economic Development And Growth In Indonesia According To Law Sharia Economy

Banking has an important role in the development and support of the country's economy, especially after the enactment of Law Number 10 of 1998 concerning Banking. Islamic economics in Indonesia has now begun to be recognized and approved by the public, given the proliferation of Islamic-based banks making people understand the systems in Islamic economics. The establishment of the Islamic Development Bank (IDB) in 1975 triggered the establishment of Islamic banks around the world including Indonesia. The birth of Law Number 21 of 2008 concerning Islamic Banking is a guarantee for the existence and legal protection of Islamic banking after the last decade of its existence which only regulates one of the principles of profit sharing which does not definitively and comprehensively regulate bank activities based on sharia principles. The method used in this research uses qualitative research methods using interview, observation and documentation techniques. This type of research uses descriptive analysis. The development of Islamic economic law in the future must increasingly refer to the protection of the benefit of the people by using maqashid sharia as a methodology and perspective. To establish economic law that falls within the scope of muamalah fiqh, a comprehensive mastery of ushul fiqh is absolutely necessary, especially to find and determine the legal illat for ongoing economic practices. Failure to determine the illat leads to failure to master the source of the problem. The current Islamic economics only talks a lot about distribution and consumption, such as the distribution of money and capital claimed to be without usury and halal product certification, and does not appear to talk much about production and all aspects related to it, such as ownership of land, resources, capital and by the private sector and conglomerates, including the fulfillment of labor rights, destruction of nature by production activities, and so on. The determination of the illat and maqashid of sharia in the economic field is also expected to pay more attention to the material conditions in which unequal production relations between community groups have resulted in economic colonization and which are very detrimental to society, especially those who are in a weak position in terms of capital, resources and power.

Strengthening the Family Support Division (BSK) on Alimony for Muslim Women

The objective of the study is to identify the need to strengthen the Family Support Division (BSK) on alimony among Muslim women in Malaysia. In this qualitative analysis study, four of the highest-ranking members of the Department of Syariah Judiciary Malaysia (JKSM) and one expert from academic areas were interviewed in depth using a set of carefully selected questions that correlated with the objective of the research. The recorded interview material was then verbatim transcribed and coded with Nvivo software version 10. Several factors that prove the need for strengthening the Family Support Division (BSK), are the husband's failure to pay alimony, a lack of data exchange with other organizations in Malaysia, the increasing number of family law cases, and procedural issues in the Syariah Court. This article recommends that a more comprehensive family finance improvement module, involving the Malaysian Syariah Judicial Department (JKSM), Family Support Division (BSK), Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM), and National Population and Family Development Board (LPPKN), be established and implemented as early as the age of marriage to ensure the family institution's sustainability.

A History of Chinese Scholarship: Cantered on World Islam Religion Studies

The sorting out of the academic history of Islamic education abroad should start with the translation of foreign achievements and their introduction and analysis. Undoubtedly, the translation and annotation work of the Quran is the most important. The Quran is a fundamental classic of Islam and a fundamental work in Islamic research. Chinese translations are certainly helpful for this study. Since the 1920s, new translations have been continuously released around the world, and to this day, there are still new translations about to be published. To study the translation and annotation of the Quran, it is necessary to immediately study Islamic law. The research on Islamic jurisprudence in the Chinese academic community started relatively late and has a relatively weak foundation. At the beginning of the research, there were only a few translations that could represent the achievements of educational law research in China. There is no doubt that the sect is Shia and the second largest sect in Islam. In terms of academic research on Shia, Shia research has not received sufficient attention from the domestic academic community for a long time. After the Islamic Revolution in Iran, scholars published and translated works, as well as papers, on Shia studies. Since the 1990s, a large number of works on this topic have emerged. Since 2003, Shia has become a hot topic in the Middle East research center. The study of Sufism is the most unique in the study of Islamic ideologies. Research on Sufism in China can be said to have just begun. Sufism not only injected important spiritual vitality into the development and dissemination of Islam, but also had a lasting impact on its internal trends and movements since modern times. Therefore, Sufism and Islamic law are the two most important foundational topics in Islamic research. From the above achievements, it can be seen that there are several types of research on Sufism in China according to its nature. But the existing achievements are still in the initial stage of academic research and need to be greatly strengthened.

History of Islamic Education in Indonesia

The history of Islamic education in Indonesia has undergone significant development along with the evolution of the national education system. The first Islamic education in Indonesia usually took place in Islamic boarding schools, which are traditional Islamic schools that focus on teaching the Quran and hadith. These pesantrens became the center for the development and spread of Islam in various parts of Indonesia. After Indonesia's independence in 1945, the Indonesian government committed to creating a national education system that covered all aspects of life. This included Islamic education, which is recognized as one of the majority religions in Indonesia. The government integrated Islamic education into the national education system by giving recognition and support to madrasahs (Islamic schools) as well as developing a curriculum that included aspects of Islam. Renewal in Islamic education thought and religious moderation have become an integral part of Islamic education in Indonesia. This effort aims to ensure that Islamic education not only fulfills religious needs, but also contributes to the formation of citizens who hold moderate views, are tolerant, and open to various religious views. This research uses the historical study method to examine the history of Islamic education in Indonesia. The researcher conducted a historical study of various sources, such as books, journals, educational reports, and documentation.
