The study aims at investigating the epistemology of the concept of resurrection in the hereafter in the views of al-Ghazālī and Fazlur Rahman. This study used documents analysed descriptively and epistemologically. It was found that both figures admitted that resurrection in the hereafter occurs not only in the spirit but also in the body. However, al-Ghazālī’s conception was a dualism of body and soul, while Rahman believed that body and soul are inseparable entities. Epistemologically, al-Ghazālī used text, reason, and intuition as sources of knowledge while Rahman used only text and reason. Al-Ghazālī tended to apply the kalām and intuitive (mystical) methods, while Rahman was more concerned with the philosophical and kalām methods. Discussion by al-Ghazālī was undertaken in theological-metaphysical study of eschatology, while Rahman went beyond mere theological-metaphysical study in which he directed his study towards an ethical-anthropocentric discussion. This comparative study is essential for observing and developing Islamic thought and education

The article discusses Muhammad Natsir’s thoughts on Islamic education which influenced his involvement in the struggles of nationalism and politics in Indonesia. Natsir was the leader of the largest Islamic political organisation in the Southeast Asian region of the Masyumi Party. This writing will perceive how the foundations of his education have influenced his thoughts and struggle to uphold modern religious knowledge and education to the Muslim community. The findings showed that his thoughts had influenced the Indonesian Muslim community on Islamic knowledge that was always challenged by the Dutch colonialists. In addition, Natsir’s thoughts and struggles were expressed through his writings, his speeches, and the impact of what he had moulded by the establishment of his own religious school in Bandung, PENDIS. Through his writings, he emphasized the importance of modern education and Islamic knowledge to his colonised society. As a result of this writing, tracing the understanding of his thoughts and struggles in developing Indonesian society through Islamic education is feasible but inevitable from religious-nationalism aspects of independence from the grasp of colonialists. This writing utilized a qualitative approach by conducting analysis through sources written by Natsir and several religious writers from Indonesia and Malaysia.

Interaction is an important and necessary action that everyone needs in life. Every human being depends on one another to fulfill their necessary needs. Islam has emphasized interaction through the many revealed verses in the Qur’ān as well as the sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). In order to build a positive relationship, many concepts of interaction have been introduced by Islamic scholars specifically as guidance for Muslims that are also universally applicable to the whole nation regardless of different religions and ethnicities. The success in the implementation of these concepts can be proven from the rulings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in Medina. The Constitution of Medina is a great guideline in building a solid united multicultural society. This article aims to explain more on the concepts of interaction according to the Islamic perspective. It also expounds on how this concept significantly impacts creating a peaceful co-existence among multicultural society especially in Malaysia as a multi-adherent society based on tasāmuh, mahabbah, and taʻāmul that underlying the concept of fiqh al-taʻāyush.
互动是每个人在生活中都需要的重要而必要的行为。每个人都依赖彼此来满足他们的必要需求。伊斯兰教强调通过古兰经ān中许多启示的经文以及先知穆罕默德的圣训(愿主福安之)进行互动。为了建立一种积极的关系，伊斯兰学者专门为穆斯林引入了许多互动的概念，这些概念也普遍适用于整个民族，无论不同宗教和种族。这些理念的成功实施可以从先知穆罕默德(愿主福安之)在麦地那的裁决中得到证明。麦地那宪法是建设牢固团结的多元文化社会的伟大指南。本文旨在根据伊斯兰教的观点，更多地解释互动的概念。它还阐述了这一概念如何显著影响在多元文化社会中创造和平共处，特别是在马来西亚，作为一个基于tasāmuh, mahabbah和tai ā āmul的多信徒社会，这是fiqh al- tai ā āyush概念的基础。

Self-development is a lifelong process. The various negative influences and the abandonment of the psychospiritual aspect contribute to the volatile and declining motivation among the teenager, which later would obstruct their self-development process. Therefore, this research will propound solutions to the preceding issue by utilizing qualitative research design via content analysis. The finding indicates that the motivation intervention for the teenager’s self-development is complex and involves varying elements related to the informant self, spiritual, as well as social context. On that account, this research suggests a supplementary model of motivation that is more systematic and characterized with Islamic concept that corresponds with their psychological needs. Also, this model incorporates the fundamental element of Islamic psychospiritual such as akhlaq (virtue), the potential of al-ruh (soul), tazkiyah al-nafs (purification of the heart), and intention for the self-development of the teenager.

Secularisation of ethics is one of the dimensions of secularism that gives a direct impact on man’s way of life. Secularism as a philosophical program that began hundreds of years ago in Europe provided a materialistic and hedonistic parameter to measure human development and happiness. This study highlights the effects of modern moral philosophy, in particular Kantianism, utilitarianism, and emotivism, upon contemporary moral crises. It refuted the claim of the proponents of the secularisation of ethics that religion, particularly the belief in God, is not essential in morality. The failure of modern Western ethics in providing a universal and effective ethical theory has led to the marginalisation of ethics in all aspects of life. The secularisation of ethics which brings about deconsecration of values has negated God’s authority and affirmed man’s autonomy to decide on moral values, resulting in the dissolution of absolute moral standards and universal moral values. This research, therefore, reiterates the central role of Divine ethics and specifically Islamic ethics in providing universal and absolute moral obligations which has the capacity to save mankind from the perils of ethical relativism and moral bankruptcy.

The research analysed the presence of the ideas of Ibn Khaldun and Toynbee in the thought of Malek Bennabi in his interpretation of the cyclical movement of civilization and its related issues. To achieve this goal, this study discussed the contributions of the cyclical school to the study of civilization, and then the presence of Ibn Khaldun’s and Toynbee’s ideas in Bennabi’s thought, in order to understand the epistemological link between them and Bennabi in terms of their influence upon him and his criticism of their ideas. The study relied on the descriptive analytical approach of the writings of Ibn Khaldun, Toynbee, and Bennabi with regard to the interpretation of the movement of civilization. The study concluded that Bennabi was familiar with their interpretations of civilization and relied on them in building his explanatory model and that the close link between Bennabi’s interpretation of the movement of civilization and what Ibn Khaldun and Toynbee accomplished makes them form one school. The study proved the importance of knowing the sources from which Bennabi drew his ideas and built his perspective in the study of civilization, in order to gain an in-depth understanding of his efforts.

Extremism is an emerging threat confronted by the Muslim world today manifested in the form of a group such as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) or al-Dawlah al-Islamiyyah fi al-‘Iraq wa al-Sham (DAESH). Undoubtedly, the existence of ISIS and its violence gave negative impacts on Islam and the Muslim ummah worldwide. What is more concerning is that some Muslims in Malaysia were also influenced by ISIS and by so doing it poses threat to our national security. Thus, based on the textual analysis of ISIS document, this article seeks to examine the discourse of tawhid advocated by ISIS, considering the fact that every act committed by Muslims is usually rooted in his or her belief system. To do this, this article focuses on the discourse of tawhid as discussed in DABIQ magazine and it is chosen due to its significance since it is regarded as ISIS mouthpiece to spread its propaganda. Based on the analysis, the article identifies five key elements that constitute ISIS discourse of tawhid, namely (i) the ideological strand of Salafi-Wahabi, (ii) three divisions of tawhid, (iii) tawhid al-Wala’ wa al-Bara’, (iv) tawhid al-Hakimiyyah, and (v) takfirism. The analysis also concludes that ISIS tawhid is not consistent with the mainstream framework of Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jama‘ah and thus it should be repudiated.

The article analyses the discourse of early ʻulamā’ in the Malay world such as Nuruddin al-Raniri and Abdul Rauf al-Sinkili on Islam and other religions. Early ʻulamā’ in the Malay world wrote numerous intellectual works for the need of local as well as international audiences. The history of religions in the Malay world revealed interesting facts on the diversity of religions that existed and were practiced by the local people. The question now is on how early ʻulamā’ in the Malay world addressed the presence and influence of religions other than Islam during the early period of Islam in the Malay world. In order to find an answer to this question, this article analyses the topic of interest written by these early ʻulamā’. The analysis is also expanded to the discourse between local ʻulamā’ and their counterparts all over the world. Special focus is given to the discourse on religions other than Islam written by early ʻulamā’ in the Malay world in order to understand their priority at that time. This article concludes that the discourse in the writings of early ʻulamā’ in the Malay world corresponds with their counterparts worldwide. The main discourse is still on the fundamental teachings of Islam. Nevertheless, discourse on religions other than Islam was not totally neglected. The limited discourse on religions other than Islam in the works of early ʻulamā’ in the Malay world implicitly tells us about the priority of early ʻulamā’ in the Malay world at that time in propagating the messages of Islam to the local people.

Issues affecting senior citizens often come under the research radar amongst scholars; one of which is an internal crisis such as loneliness, anxiety, and depression either at home or in old folks’ homes. This research intends to study the spiritual practices like the daily routines of the elderlies residing in Darul Hanan Elderly Care Centre, Penang, as well as analyse their emotional impact, in overcoming loneliness, ensued from their spiritual practices. This is a qualitative study with a case study design. A total of 20 female senior citizens were interviewed. The selection of the study sample used is purposive sampling based on data saturation. The method applied was a semi-structured interview. Research data were analysed descriptively using Atlas.ti. The study finds that there are seven spiritual practices for the elderly at Darul Hanan Elderly Care Centre, Penang. They are daily and compulsory prayers (salat fard) in a congregation, night prayers (qiyamullayl), supplementary (sunat) practices, Qur’anic recitation, chanting praises for Allah (dhikr), chanting for forgiveness from Allah (istighfar), and attending religious lectures. The study also finds that there are 18 positive emotions of the elderly, such as fun, calm, happy, and relieved, after performing spiritual practices that are capable of overcoming loneliness. This makes the spiritual aspect an undeniable measure in overcoming loneliness for the elderly at old folks’ homes in ensuring the happiness of the elderly.
