Reconstructing Recent Paradigm Through the Interpretation of Halal Consumption with Shifting Paradigm Theory
Full text linkThe obligation to consume halal food and beverages was originally an implementation of religious values in life. However, now, these values have been systematized in such a way as to gain profit by Moslems themselves and non-Muslims. The old paradigm of halal food is generally measured through the limits of unlawful food and drinks in the Qur'an and Hadith. The knowledge of society about unlawful food and drinks forms an understanding that other than the forbidden food means halal to consume. However, this paradigm clashes with recent science and technology, which prove that halal foods can be haram because of the processes carried out on the food or any external factors. This encourages various parties to form a new paradigm about the halal concept. This research is a descriptive-analytical library research to clearly describe the data on various paradigms in halal studies and analyze the anomalies in old studies that have moved various groups to form a new paradigm. This study uses the shift paradigm theory by Thomas Kuhn, which consists of pre-paradigm, normal phase, crisis or anomaly phase, and new paradigm shift phase. The data in this study are divided into primary and secondary data; the primary data of this study is the old paradigm in the interpretation of QS. Al-Baqarah [2]: 168, and secondary data in this study come from books, scientific journals, theses, dissertations, and others. The results of this study indicate that the interpretation of QS. Al-Baqarah [2]: 168 needs to be developed again because the old interpretation cannot solve the problems that arise in the current era. In forming a new paradigm, the government of the Republic of Indonesia commodifies the halal value of religion. It implements the JPH Law as a new standard that is more specific and systematic in determining halal products. Research like this is interesting to find new solutions to every social problem from various scientific backgrounds
The Criticism of Utsman Najati to Modern Psychology
Full text linkPsychology has provided a significant effect in describing human behavior in the modern era. However, despite the extensive development of theories in modern psychology, this field of science still needs to improve in terms of terminology, epistemology, and worldview.

This research was library research, and the data sources consisted of primary data sources from Utsman Najati's works related to Psychology, and secondary data sources, namely in the form of books, which were relevant to this research to strengthen arguments and to complement data from research results. The data analysis technique used by the authors in this study was content analysis. The findings obtained from this paper were as follows: First, Utsman Najati revealed the disparity between the terms of psychology and research objects which were limited to behavior; Second, Utsman Najati uncovered the problem of the epistemology of psychology, which limited itself to empirical things; Third, a materialistic and atheist perspective in several schools of modern psychology contradicted the Islamic view of life

Religious Insurgency and Quest for Sustainable Peace in Nigeria: The Islamic Model as a Panacea
Full text linkThe religious insurgency championed by the Boko HÌ£arÄm movement has threatened Nigeria's quest for sustainable peace for more than a decade despite the counter-insurgency measures of successive governments. This paper examined Nigeria's turbulent decade of religious insurgency, its position within the Islamic context, and Islamically-inclined practicable solution to the threat. It used analytical research method based on existing secondary literature and primary Islamic law sources. The paper reveals that a turbulent decade of Boko HÌ£arÄm insurgency has wreaked havoc on the peace and tranquillity previously existing among Nigeria's diverse ethno-religious entities. The analysis of Quranic texts, ahÌ£ÄdÄ«th and opinions of notable scholars also indicates that religious insurgency associated with Boko HÌ£arÄm is inconsistent with Islamic doctrines. Tolerance among religionists, proper religious teachings and interpretation of divine scripture, genuine inter and intra-faith dialogues, Islamic leadership-cum-governance paradigms, among others, were the identified Islamic-modelled panacea to the insurgency. The paper concludes that if the identified Islamic model can be embraced and considered in the scheme of things by religious and political leaders, as well as their ardent followers, the current religious insurgency would be drastically curtailed, thereby advancing sustainable peace in Nigeria
Trans-Religious Genealogy: Jombang Community Resilience in Maintaining Tolerance in the Modern Era
Full text linkIntolerance is still a socio-religious problem that leads to ongoing conflict. Intolerance gives birth to individualist attitudes, fanaticism, and communal legitimacy. In pluralist and multiculturalist countries, tolerance has not found strong, solid roots, especially withstanding changing times. Tolerance is often temporary, easily ignited by stigma and internal motives. However, in Jombang Regency, as a miniature showcase for a portrait of tolerant religious attitudes, it can survive convincingly amid modernity. Adherents of Islam, Catholics, Protestants, and Hindus can be tolerant under any conditions. Therefore, this research seeks to explore the ideological conception of religious diversity in Jombang as a manifestation of the ideal depiction of tolerance. This article is based on qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. Durkheim's social system theory is used as an analytical tool. Primary data was obtained from three religious adherents from religious and community figures. The research results revealed three things: 1) The genealogy of the religious tolerance values of Jombang society between Islam, Christianity, and Hinduism converges on the values of tasamuh, blessings, and the cult of God. 2) the resilience of tolerance amid modernity is created by a robust social structure, namely the genealogy of religious values, forming traditions, and the externalization of religious behavior. 3) religious transvalues create a tolerant categorization of religion, namely the connectivity of religious genealogy, internalization of religious traditions, and externalization of religious attitudes

The Phenomenon of Bullying in Schools during the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Quranic Perspective
Full text linkBullying is still common in the education sector, especially in online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Bullying between students in online learning occurs verbally through social media. In contrast, in offline learning, bullying is carried out as evasion and exclusion in the school environment, such as canteens, toilets, classrooms, and parking lots. This study aims to discuss bullying in schools from the perspective of the Qurán. This study uses a qualitative method, with the type of library research, the historical approach, and the descriptive approach used. Bullying from the perspective of the Qur'an can be seen from the prohibition of bullying behavior in surah Al-Hujurat verse 13 and surah Yusuf verses 8-10. Meanwhile, solutions for victims and bullying behavior can be seen in the Al-Qur'an surah Al-Luqman verses 13-19, At-Thaha verses 132, and Ash-Shura verses 39-43
Islamic-Javanese Hybridization in Politic Cultural Mataram After the Weakening of the Politic Role of Santri
Full text linkThe transformation of Java into a stronghold of Islam can be attributed to the emergence and evolution of Islamic boarding schools, which played a crucial role in disseminating the religion across the region. Initially rooted in the assimilation of the elitist Hindu-Javanese mandala educational model. Throughout their evolution, Islamic boarding schools were instrumental in shaping Islamic politics, particularly during the Sultanate of Demak to Pajang. The influential Walisanga, also known as Kyai of the pesantren, served as pillars in teaching, fighting, and sustaining the sultanates. A qualitative historical research approach using literary sources delves into the factors behind Mataram's diminishing support for the political role of the santri, Sultan Agung's subsequent actions, and the resulting impacts. The study concludes that the King of Mataram perceived the political influence of Islamic boarding schools, especially the former Walisanga Islamic boarding school, as an obstacle to absolute authoritarianism. Sultan Agung's ambition to become the sole ruler comparable to the greatness of Majapahit was hindered. Following the collapse of the political role of Islamic boarding schools, Sultan Agung asserted himself as Agung Binathara, reinforcing acculturative Islamic culture through the Islamic-Javanese calendar and traditions. The aftermath included authorities' arrogance towards Islamic boarding schools, leading Amangkurat I to replace Sultan Agung through the arbitrary slaughter of Kyai and santri. Additionally, this era gave rise to Islamic-Javanese syncretic traditions at the Mataram Palace, encompassing the garbage ceremony, bedoyo tawang dance, belief in the supernatural powers of heirlooms, and the Kejawen concept, embodying Javanese-Islamic syncretism
Epistemology of Nationalism in the Context of National Jurisprudence at the Lirboyo Islamic Boarding School
Full text linkThis study discusses the epistemological reasoning of nationalism and national fiqh at Islamic boarding schools, especially at the Lirboyo Islamic Boarding School, Kediri, East Java. Lirboyo Islamic Boarding School was chosen purposively as the research location. With a case study approach, this article reveals the epistemological reasoning of nationalism that occurs and develops in the research location. The results of the study show that there has been a shift in the epistemology of nationalism. This epistemological shift can be seen from the inconsistency of meaning and choice of action taken. From the theory of social transformation, certain social constructions will also affect specific cognitions or awareness””likewise, the epistemology of nationalism at the Lirboyo Islamic Boarding School. During the phase of the struggle against Dutch colonialism, nationalism was interpreted as a form of jihad against non-Muslims, along with the emergence of an awareness of establishing an Islamic state. However, since the establishment of Ma'had Aly Lirboyo, which has the peculiarities of nationalism, nationalism has shifted in meaning to become a form of awareness against radicalism movements born of Islamic Group, such as Hizb at-Tahrir Indonesia (HTI) and the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI). The assertion that the State of Indonesia is a state whose government is legitimate and opposing it is a prohibited action further confirms this shift in the epistemology of nationalism
