Islamic Contracts of Finance in Malaysia
No full textThis paper explores the legal issues that arise in several of the principal instruments currently used in Islamic financing in Malaysia. Through the document review, it is submitted that these financial instruments consist of English-Malaysian commercial law, albeit set within an Islamic periphery. A consideration of how Islamic law could affect the litigation of these instruments is also undertaken and it is further submitted that given the current statutory and judicial framework of Islamic banking in Malaysia, the effect of Islamic commercial law upon these contracts appears to be morally exhortative, rather than legally enforceable. Finally, it is concluded that Islamic law is presently consigned to the margins of these financial contracts, and the consequences that arise from this conclusion are discussed.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v10i1.64
Education, Young Islamists and Integrated Islamic Schools in Indonesia
No full textArtikel ini memperlihatkan bahwa ekspansi sekolah Islam terpadu menandai tumbuhnya kelas menengah Muslim baru yang berhasrat mengekspresikan identitas keagamaan sambil memperlihatkan status, kelas, dan selera sosial mereka sebagai Muslim yang modern dan bersentuhan erat dengan globalisasi. Dengan biaya yang mahal dan berbagai fasilitas yang ditawarkan, sekolah-sekolah Islam terpadu memberikan kebanggaan sosial kepada para orang tua dan sekaligus rasa identitas sebagai Muslim yang berkomitmen. Hal-hal yang bersifat praktis, seperti waktu bersekolah yang lebih lama (full-day system) yang memungkinkan orangtua untuk menitipkan putra-putri mereka di sekolah sehabis jam sekolah biasa juga menjadi alasan penting di balik keputusan banyak anggota kelas menengah di perkotaan melirik sekolah Islam terpadu. Di tengah meluasnya ekses-ekses kenakalan remaja dan pergaulan bebas, upaya memastikan putra-putri mereka berada pada tempat yang aman menjadi sangat penting bagi orang tua yang sibuk bekerja dan beraktivitas.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v19i1.370

NU: Islam Tradisional dan Modernitas di Indonesia

No full textThis paper is concerned with exploring the early stages of a new movement is Islamic thought in Indonesian society referred to by some as Islamic neo-modernism by focusing upon the lives and writings of the four seminal neo-modernist thinkers in Indonesia: Nurcholish Madjid, Djohan Effendi, Ahmad Wahib and Abdurrahman Wahid.Whilst the later work of these intellectuals, particularly Nurcholish and Abdurrahman, is reasonably well known the extend to which their current liberal, progressive thought reflects their convictions of two, or more, decades ago is not well understood.
