Full text linkSince the 19th Century, Brunei Darussalam has conducted Islamic Lifelong Learning formally and non-formally, which has been referred to as the Adult Religious Class. The class is offered to mature students who have never attended or finished their formal religious education. The modules taught are mostly focused on al-Quran literacy skills and basic Islamic studies. Although these classes have been practised for a long time, the term Islamic Lifelong Learning is still an uncommon term in the sultanate. Hence, this study proposes to explore and discover the term “Islamic Lifelong Learning” in the context of Brunei Darussalam. The study is based on document reviews and analyses from past researchers and official websites. Furthermore, the findings have suggested that various classes have been established in Lifelong learning, which can be known as “Islamic Lifelong Learning”. Thus, the paper concludes that Islamic Lifelong Learning is a part of ongoing learning in Brunei Darussalam that has been implemented and conducted either in mosques, balais, universities, or institutes with particular Islamic modules consisting of ‘Aqīdah, Sharī‘ah and Akhlāq

All the objectives will focus on aqīdah (creed), laws, and tales of the Quran. In addition, some of the efforts that can be made to cultivate the Quran in life through an understanding maqāṣid al-Qur’ān include reading, memorising, understanding, and practising its teachings. Thus, the Quran was revealed to ensure the well-being of people, whether in this world or the Hereafter
Kesepadanan fungsi terjemahan derivasi Tafā‘ala dalam surah al-Baqarah: The accurate equivalent function of suffix Tafā‘ala in al-Baqarah
Full text linkMost of the interpreters have difficulty finding the most accurate derivation of the Arabic translation equivalent to the translated verb in Malay. This is because of the failure to determine the function of the translated derivation of the verb. This study is undertaken to examine the most accurate equivalent function of the derivation word تـَفـَاعَـلَ (tafā‘ala) in surah al-Baqarah. The objective of this study was to examine how Malay Arabic translation can be translated correctly when the prefix ت (ta’) is added in front of a verb and the insertion of ا (alif) is added after the first letter of the root word. Five research samples taken from surah al-Baqarah were studied using contrastive analysis and content theory. The findings showed that the four samples interpreted according to the derivation translation function with the suffix تـَفـَاعَـلَ (tafā’ala) added, were translated correctly. While the other sample was suggested with another translation. This study found all affixes of the samples meant المشاركة (al-mushārakah). In conclusion, translation is seen as successful because it is translated correctly, although there is little modification made with the aim of making the translation more natural in the context of the verse

Full text linkThe Islamic Pre-Marriage Course is among the requirements in marriage application procedures that must be fulfilled by Muslim brides-to-be in Malaysia. The purpose of this course is to provide basic knowledge of life for the bride and groom-to-be. However, the deaf group is excluded from attending this course as there is no special course conducted for them by the state Islamic department. Thus, some of them attended the pre-marriage course organised for a typical group.The objective of this article is to study the implementation of the current pre-marriage course that also involves the participation of deaf people and the challenges encountered by the deaf person and the sign language interpreters while conducting the course session.The research methodology is qualitative, and semi-structured interviews were conducted with the Islamic religious department officers and sign language interpreters who are involved in the pre-marriage course. The data gathered are analysed descriptively and thematically. The research outcomes reveal a lack of specific organisation of the Islamic pre-marriage course for deaf people, a methodology of delivering lectures based on the typical group method, and difficulties in delivering the content of the lecture encountered by the sign language interpreter while conveying talks to the deaf person. The implication of the discussion shows the importance of organising an Islamic pre-marital course for the deft group in order to give them the opportunity to understand the pre-marriage knowledge enjoyed by typical men
