القيم الإسلامية وأثرها في غرس التكافل
No full textتقوم القيم الإسلامية بدور كبير في المجتمع، ويتضح هذا من خلال ما تغرسه في الفرد منذ نشأته على الشعور بالمسؤولية تجاه غيره ممن يعيشون حوله، بل تمتد هذه المسؤولية للدنيا بأسرها، فالإسلام يربي في الفرد المسلم الشعور بالمسئولية تجاه إخوانه، ليس في الدين فقط وإنما مد ظلاله لكل إنسان، ولم لا أليس الإنسان هو محور التكريم الإلهي؟! مشكلة البحث: يواجه الكثير من الآباء صعوبات في غرس القيم والمباديء التي يؤمنون بها في أولادهم، فما هو الطريق الأمثل لإقناع الأبناء بقيم التعاون والإيثار؟ وتتضح إشكالية البحث في كيفية تفعيل القيم التربوية لإنشاء مجتمع متكافل؟ وما دور الفرد والمجتمع في هذا الشأن؟ وما العناية التي أولاها الإٍسلام للتكافل الاجتماعى؛ ليكون نظاماً لتربية روح الفرد وضميره وسلوكه الاجتماعى؛ وليكون نظاماً للعلاقات الاجتماعية؟ الهدف من هذا البحث: إبراز أن القيم الإسلامية منهج لحياة الفرد والمجموع، والإسلام كمنهج حياة يدعو أفراد المجتمع إلى الالتزام بهذه القيم، ومد يد العون لكل محتاج، فالإنسان كرمه الله سبحانه في كتابه الكريم، وجعله محور الرسالة الخاتمة، وذلل له الأرض؛ لينتفع من خيراتها، وما كان ليستطيع أن ينهض بمهمته في الحياة إلا بتكاتفه مع الأخرين. منهج البحث:سلكت في هذا البحث منهج الاستقراء لبعض نصوص الوحيين، ورؤية بعض العلماء لمفهوم التكافل، مع تحليل النصوص الواردة بالبحث واستنتاج الأحكام منها. النتائج المتوقعة لهذا البحث: إبراز كيف كان الإسلام سباقاً على غيره من الأنظمة والتشريعات الوضعية في تقريره لهذا الجانب، وحث أفراده على هذا الأمر، بل إيجاب ذلك عليهم وقت الأزمات. هيكلة البحث: يتكون من ملخص وأربعة مطالب على النحو التالي: المطلب الأول: في مفهوم القيم ومصادرها ومجالاتها.المطلب الثاني: في ماهية التكافل في الإسلام وأهميته،المطلب الثالث:التكافل ومبادئ الإسلام.المطلب الرابع:التكافل بين المعنوي والمادي. وخاتمة فيها نتائج البحث، وقائمة المصادر والمراجع
SOROTAN PEMBINAAN PERADABAN ISLAM MELALUI KERANGKA EPISTEMOLOGI ISLAM
Full text linkPeradaban Islam terbukti telah menyumbang kepada pembinaan tamadun dunia samada di Afrika, Asia, Andalus dan sebahagian besar Eropah. Pencapaian hebat ini meliputi bidang-bidang ilmu yang utama dan dicatatkan dalam sejarah. Rahsia kejayaan adalah terletak kepada kefahaman Islam yang seimbang dan syumul dalam kalangan para sarjana dan cendekiawan Islam. Artikel ini cuba membahaskan peranan kefahaman umat Islam terhadap konsep epistemologi Islam sebagai asas penting pembinaan peradaban Islam yang cemerlang. Kerangka epistemologi Islam ini akan diteliti bagi mengembalikan semula kegemilangan umat Islam masa lalu serta meletakkan kedudukan umat Islam masa kini sebagai khalifah Allah di muka bumi dalam posisi yang sebenarnya. Kajian ini bersifat kualitatif yang mengaplikasikan pendekatan analisis kandungan. Data-data kajian dikumpulkan melalui buku-buku, jurnal-jurnal, kertas-kertas persidangan dan kajian ilmiah. Dapatan kajian merumuskan bahawa ilmu epistemologi penting dalam memahami asas-asas pengetahuan dan sumber kebenaran. Dengan mempelajari prinsip-prinsip epistemologi, umat Islam dapat memahami keabsahan dan kekuatan wahyu sebagai sumber pengetahuan yang utama. Perbezaan epistemologi Islam dan Barat adalah berbeza pada pendekatan asas, dan pemahaman asas mengenai pengetahuan dan sumber kebenaran. Epistemologi Barat cenderung berpusat pada pengetahuan yang diperoleh melalui pengamatan, penelitian ilmiah, dan akal manusia yang menjadikan sumber kebenaran utama adalah pengalaman empirikal dan metod saintifik. Ianya berbeza dalam Islam, peranan akal (reason) dan wahyu (revelation) saling berkaitan. Akal digunakan untuk merenung dan memahami wahyu, sementara wahyu memberikan petunjuk dan batasan bagi akal. Peradaban Islam masa lalu berjaya dibina ekoran kesyumulan fahaman umat Islam terhadap kerangka ilmu. Umat Islam dahulu memahami kedudukan ilmu fardhu ain dan fardhu kifayah serta tuntutan integrasi antara kedua-dua ilmu tersebut. Strategi dan langkah penting yang perlu diambil oleh umat Islam hari ini bagi memegang teraju dunia dari segi pencapaian peradaban yang gemilang adalah kembali meneliti dan memahami epistemologi Islam seterusnya melaksanakannya berasaskan ketaqwaan kepada Allah S.W.T.
