The Call of Jihad in Adding the Adhan Narrative to the Perspective of Islamic Law

At the end of the year 2020, social media was in an uproar over the addition of the jihad narrative to the call to prayer, which included an invitation to jihad. Certain elements of a small portion of the Muslim population exhaled the issue. This study aims to examine the position of the call to prayer in Islamic law and the evaluation of Islamic law regarding the call to jihad in the form of the call to prayer. This type of research employs a normative methodology. In the form of the addition of the call to prayer narration, primary data sources were acquired from a variety of social media posts pertaining to challenges requiring jihad. Additional primary sources acquired from books and periodicals. The results of this study indicate that the call to prayer has been a part of Islamic law from the time of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH, serving as a reminder and a call to congregational prayer. The call for jihad in the form of the call to prayer is not included as the call to prayer, may not be called as a call to prayer, and is called during prayer times and in a location that can cause people to panic, as the call for jihad in the form of the call to prayer has never been carried out and exemplified by the Messenger of Allah. By adding a narration to the call to prayer, Muslims should not be inflamed by jihad appeals. However, one cannot overlook the phenomena of the call to jihad that has gone viral because to the actions of specific individuals. Obviously, the government and related bureaucracy wish to take resolute measures so as not to disrupt public order as a consequence.

Pemahaman Jamaah Terhadap Ibadah Salat Jumat

The implementation of Friday prayers is an order from Allah SWT to all Muslims who are already mukallaf. The law of performing Friday prayers is obligatory for every Muslim man. This obligation is stated in QS Al-Jumuah Verse 9. If you look at the facts on the ground, especially at the Air Tawar Barat Nurul Islam Mosque, most of the worshipers are still negligent in carrying out Friday prayers and if the Friday prayer time comes at 12:15 WIB, then most of the worshipers come. to the mosque at 12:10 WIB and some of them even came during the second sermon to perform Friday prayers. This study describes how Muslims (congregants of the Nurul Islam Air Tawar Barat Mosque) understand the terms and timing of Friday prayers through descriptive qualitative methods with the type of case study research in which the data were collected from 30 informants, both youths, pilgrims, adults/students, and parents. The results of the study were that most of the worshipers did not understand the conditions for Friday prayers and understood the timing of the Friday prayers, but there were some congregations, especially teenagers and adults/students whose awareness was still lacking in hastening to carry out Friday prayers. For this reason, the authors suggest religious leaders, ustadz, preachers are expected not to get tired of conveying about the implementation of Friday prayers, the virtues that are on Friday and how important it is to come to the mosque to carry out Friday prayers as well as the congregation are expected to continue to learn and understand about Friday prayer.

Improving thermal comfort in mosques of hot-humid climates through passive and low-energy design strategies

Mosques have intermittent operational schedules with short-term occupancy during the five daily prayers. The occupancy level of the daily prayers is a fraction compared to the mandatory Friday prayers with full occupancy. Usually, the same thermal control mechanism is operated within the same large prayer hall to maintain the thermal comfort of the occupants. Yet, the comfort requirements are often not met due to the short span of operation during prayer times. Nevertheless, mosques have a very high energy usage as the same energy-intensive system is operated even during minimal occupancy profiles. The current research aims at using a passive approach towards design to achieve the comfort conditions during the low occupancy daily prayer times without employing mechanical intervention. Numerical simulations are carried out on a validated model of the case study building to investigate the impact of the west-facing Qiblah wall as the congregation stands in proximity to this wall. The design alternatives are tested in conjunction with ventilation strategies to holistically assess the thermal comfort of the occupants. Results show that as much as 4–6 °C reduction in indoor wall surface temperature can be achieved with a suitable Qiblah wall design, which reduces the mean radiant temperature of the occupants by 2–4 °C. Combined with ventilation strategies, thermal comfort can be significantly improved by at least 40% for the prayers during the hottest times of the day, and as much as 80% for night-time prayers. Results suggest that suitable comfort conditions can be achieved without the need for air-conditioning for at least two or three of the five daily prayers.

Implications of Uniform Time Zone for ASEAN Countries on Muslim Prayer (Solah) Timings in Malaysia

A time zone is an area on the Earth globe that observes a uniform or standard time in its area, better known as local time. The time zones worldwide differ according to the longitude of a country and ASEAN countries have four time zones, namely, GMT+6.5, GMT+7, GMT+8 and GMT+9. Time zones result in different environments in the aspects of socio-ibadah (religious worship), working hours and timings for other purposes. Indeed, there have been many suggestions to standardize the time zones of ASEAN countries in order to facilitate the ideal directness of economic activity, however a thorough study needs to be conducted so that any decision taken will harmonize all parties. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to assess the Muslim prayer time schedule in Malaysia by analyzing the Muslim prayer times for ASEAN countries compared to if the time zones were converted to a standard or uniform time zone, namely GMT+7. This is qualitative research using the methods of document analysis, interview and observation. This research focused on the prayer schedule of the easternmost state time zone and westernmost state time zone in Malaysia. Research results finds that a change in the time zone of Malaysia to GMT+7 would delay prayer timings in Malaysia by one hour. This would more or less change social activity and working hours for society in Malaysia. This research indirectly gives an early picture of the effect of applying a uniform time zone, GMT+7, so that ASEAN countries, including Malaysia, may be prepared.

Pembangunan e-Pocket Musafir (e-PM) Aplikasi Mudah Alih Android untuk Pengembara Muslim

Musafir (مسافر) is a word in Arabic meaning ‘traveler’ which refers to a person who is on a long journey. According to Quran Verse 6:11 “Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who rejected it.”. This verse encourages Muslims to travel while observing what is the end for the people who lie to Allah SWT. Even if a person is on a journey, in Islam prayer is obligatory and a person must perform religious obligation. Therefore, Allah SWT has given privileges to Muslims while traveling to perform prayers. Since this way of praying is rarely performed, people who travel must have a reference before performing this prayer, and most references nowadays are in the form of non-interactive documents and are difficult to carry anywhere. Therefore, this project aims to develop a mobile application for Muslim travelers which will guide them to perform prayers with privilege. We are using the incremental model methodology to develop this project. In addition, the application will also provide several important features for Muslims to use such as tasbih, Qasar, and Jamaq prayer guidance, Hadith, and prayer times. A selected group of people a chosen to confirm the project's usability. At the end of the research, we found that this project is successfully helping Muslim travelers to perform prayers whether it is in Qasar or Jamaq prayer states. In conclusion, the effectiveness of this application is likely to be extended into the study of other topic areas.

Interconnection of Mathematics and Dhuha Time

The interconnection of mathematics and religion can be done by looking at the interconnectedness of mathematics and the sunnah dhuha. The uniqueness of the sunnah dhuha, provides a challenge to see how mathematics is present in the initial determination of the dhuha time, to make it easier for humans to do. In this study, the library research method was used as a research method to see the mathematical interconnection with dhuha time. There are four steps carried out in the research, the first is data collection, the second is data reduction, third is display data, and fourt data analysis and interpretation. From the research that has been done, the mathematical concepts that exist in determining the timing of the dhuha prayer are the basic concepts of mathematical arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division), trigonometric concepts, basic concepts of geometry (acute angles), and the concept of calculating time. . In the initial calculation of the implementation of dhuha prayer, the concept of trigonometry (sin, cos, tan), the basic concepts of arithmetic operations, and the concept of calculating the amount of time used. The basic concept of geometry (an acute angle) is connected with the angle formed at the height of the sun at the beginning of the time of the dhuha prayer seen from the observer.

Nontechnological Online Challenges Faced by Health Professions Students during COVID-19: A Questionnaire Study

COVID-19 forced universities to shift to online learning (emergency remote teaching (ERT)). This study aimed at identifying the nontechnological challenges that faced Sultan Qaboos University medical and biomedical sciences students during the pandemic. This was a survey-based, cross-sectional study aimed at identifying nontechnological challenges using Likert scale, multiple-choice, and open-ended questions. Students participated voluntarily and gave their consent; anonymity was maintained and all data were encrypted. The response rate was 17.95% (n = 131) with no statistically significant difference based on gender or majors (p-value > 0.05). Of the sample, 102 (77.9%) were stressed by exam location uncertainty, 96 (73.3%) felt easily distracted, 98 (74.8%) suffered physical health issues, and 89 (67.9%) struggled with time management. The main barriers were lack of motivation (92 (70.2%)), instruction/information overload (78 (59.5%)), and poor communication with teachers (74 (56.5%)). Furthermore, 57 (43.5%) said their prayer time was affected, and 65 (49.6%) had difficulties studying during Ramadan. The most important qualitative findings were poor communication and lack of motivation, which were reflected in student comments. While ERT had positive aspects, it precipitated many nontechnological challenges that highlight the inapplicability of ERT as a method of online learning for long-term e-learning initiatives. Challenges must be considered by the faculty to provide the best learning experience for students in the future.

Studi Analisis Akurasi Perhitungan Awal Waktu Shalat Menggunakan Universal Astrolabe

Universal Astrolabe is a type of Astrolabe that can be used in any region or latitude. This paper examines the accuracy of the Universal Astrolabe in determining the start of the five daily prayer times (Fajr, Zuhur, Asr, Maghrib and Isha). The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of the calculation method for determining the beginning of prayer times using the Universal Astrolabe. Astrolabe is one of the classical astronomical instruments that describes the celestial sphere in two dimensions and was originally used to determine the position of the Sun. Astrolabe comes from the Greek language which consists of the word "aster" which means star, and the word "labio" which means take, understand, and catch. In simple terms, Astrolabe can be interpreted as a tool to study the Stars. This instrument is a type of calculating tool. The function of the Astrolabe is very complex, namely to determine the position of the Sun or other stars, to determine the zodiac and its circulation scale, to determine the height of an object and determine solar time. The results showed that the method of calculating the initial prayer time applied in the Universal Astrolabe was the method of reading directly on the plate. The initial calculation of prayer times using the Universal Astrolabe results in a calculation difference between 0-3 minutes and the prayer time schedule set by the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia, so it is considered quite accurate. This difference can be influenced by the diameter of the Universal Astrolabe and the accuracy of the reader when reading the curves and numbers listed on the Universal Astrolabe.Keywords: Prayer Times, Accuracy, Universal Astrolabe.

IMPLEMENTATION OF THE AL-TAISĪR CONCEPT IN JAMAK PRAYER FOR MEDICAL PERSONNEL PERFORMING SURGICAL OPERATIONS

Islamic law is based on strong and flexible principles that are suitable for every country, people, time, and era. There are three principles in Islamic law. First, it is not burdensome and removes difficulties. Second, maintaining the benefit of all human beings. The third is the comprehensive realization of justice. There are many forms of eliminating hardship and difficulty. Among them are in the aspect of worship, in the realm of muamalah and uqūbah (sanctions). In the aspect of worship, for example, the permissibility of qasar prayer, tayamum and iftar for travelers and sick people. A situation that is also related to this is the condition of medical personnel when performing surgical operations that require a short time to carry out. It is not uncommon for this to coincide with the time of prayer until it is close to the time limit. Sometimes, the surgery goes beyond the set prayer time, even entering the next prayer time. This research was conducted using a theological-normative approach or shar'ī approach presented qualitatively. Primary data sources come from verses of the Qur'an, the Prophet's hadith. Secondary data is obtained from various sources, namely literature that studies the concept of al-taisīr, scientific journal articles, print and online media. The data are analyzed by deductive method.

Perencanaan Sistem Pemanenan Air Hujan (Rainwater Harvesting) di Masjid Al Mu’minin Kota Kendari

The need for clean water in mosques, especially for ablution water needs, is something that needs to be addressed. Lack of clean water during the dry season can be a problem for some mosques, such as the Al-Mu'minin mosque which experiences a shortage of groundwater volume during the dry season and groundwater becomes a little smelly. This study aims to determine the potential of rainwater through hydrological analysis and can plan a rainwater harvesting system at the Al-Mu'minin mosque. The results obtained are the amount of water needed for ablution at the Al-Mu'minin mosque is as much as 6.97 m3/day or equivalent to 209.11 m3/month. This result is obtained from the calculation of the number of worshipers per day with the need for ablution water per prayer time, which is 4.42 liters/person. Next, a hydrological analysis was calculated and the result was 45.51 mm/hour of rain intensity, which was then used to calculate the volume of rainwater that could be accommodated so that the result was 7.81 m3/day or equivalent to 234.3 m3/month. Based on the calculation results, the piping system used is 4 inches for horizontal pipes and 3 inches for standpipes.

Analisis Penetapan Jadwal Waktu Salat Subuh Wahdah Islamiyah

The inclusion of prayer time is one of the valid requirements of prayer as explained in the Qur'an and hadiths of the Prophet (s). The Fajr prayer schedule issued by Wahdah Islamiyah is interesting to review because it is different from the official prayer schedule issued by the Ministry of Religious Affairs, Republic of Indonesia. This difference can have implications for the validity or absence of Fajr prayers and fasting performed by Muslims based on the schedule. This study aimed to analyze the method of determining the Fajr prayer schedule issued by Wahdah Islamiyah. This research is qualitative descriptive research through library study methods and content analysis. The results showed that Wahdah Islamiyah compiled its Fajr prayer schedule with a high-accuracy contemporary accounting method using VSOP87 algorithm. The location of markaz da'wah in Makassar City was chosen as the coordinate point of the calculation of the position of the sun. Wahdah Islamiyah's Fajr prayer schedule uses a sun altitude of 18 degrees below the horizon by adding a two-minute of iḥtiyāṭ. Based on the calculation, the Fajr prayer schedule of Wahdah Islamiyah has been accurately used in the Makassar City area

Islamic Astronomy of Abbasid Era (750-1258 AD)

Astronomy is a particular field in Islam related to the interests of daily Muslim worship practices, such as determining the beginning of prayer times, qibla direction, and the beginning of the Qamariyah month. During the Abbasid period 750-1258 AD, especially during the reign of Abu Ja'far Al-Mansur, Harun Al-Rashid, and Al-Ma'mun, Islamic astronomy developed significantly. This can be seen from the emergence of astronomers. The love of the three Abbasid caliphs for science significantly influenced the policies related to development in science. The method used in this study is a qualitative method with historical analysis techniques. This study aims to add to the enrichment of historical treasures related to the development of science, especially astronomy, during the Abbasid period. Meanwhile, astronomy during the Abbasid period also had many scientific sources that needed to be studied more comprehensively. That is, many scientific figures in astronomy have never been specifically studied. Therefore, the study of astronomy today in higher education must also seriously focus on learning classical knowledge. This paper discusses the Abbasid state in developing science during its reign by looking at it from the perspective of significant scientific developments during the leadership of its caliph, which was indirectly influenced by socio-religious and intellectual conditions in his time. During the Abbasid era, the progress of science had reached its golden age, especially in Islamic astronomy which had contributed to the development of its science in the field of astronomy in the period after that until now.

Ideal Data to Determine Accurate Fajr Time

Early fajr time research was carried out by various parties with various techniques, one of which was using a sky quality meter (SQM) photometric tool. Observational data from various regions that have varying night levels result in a varying early fajr time as well. By paying attention to the effect of sky quality represented by the night level at the observation location, this research wants to answer whether the 20 mpsas night level limit is ideal data by looking at the correlation coefficient between night level and the turning point solution. From 1068 data with varying night levels, the correlation coefficient ( ) between the night level and the turning point solution is 0,42 which means there is an effect, while for data with a minimum night level of 20mpsas the correlation coefficient is 0,07 which means there is no influence. Based on the results of the analysis, the night level of 20mpsas can be the minimum limit for conducting an ideal early fajr time research. From 241 ideal observation data from 6 LAPAN observation stations, early fajr time presents when the Sun's elevation angle is -16,51°. Early fajr time is also the beginning of subuh prayer time, with its standard used in Indonesia, which is -20° or 3,49° different from the analysis results, if it is converted there is a difference of 13 minutes 57 seconds.

Recognizing Extravagance Consumption and Avoiding Wastefulness Using Islamic Benchmarks in Nahj al-Balaghah

Excessive consumption on a large scale in various affairs causes the waste of substantial material assets and sometimes even endangers the lives of human beings. This consumption leads to famine and the reduction of necessary materials for future generations. The wrong consumption patterns in Islamic society are undeniable, and their adverse consequences have exposed Islamic societies. However, one of Islam’s best accurate social-economical guidance is avoiding excessive consumption. This article attempts to clarify the Modification Consumption Patterns using the sayings of Imam-Ali (AS) in Nahj al-Balaghah. Regarding the revision of Hadiths and Quranic verses, the researchers can extract and conclude the basic consumption patterns and present them to the Islamic community. For Example, “Extravagance Consumption ruins the divine rewards.” Islam had warned the Islamic Community to avoid excessive consumption while using the pure resources on the earth. Holy Quran harshly condemned profanes and those who are abundantly excessive about any consumption on the earth. In Surah Araf, verse 31: “O Children of Adam! Wear your beautiful apparel at every time and place of prayer: eat and drink: But waste not by excess, for Allah, loveth not the wasters”. These patterns can be compared with other patterns in the Islamic community.
