The Paradigm of Knowledge in Search of Alternative Science
No full textMany things need to be considered when developing knowledge in human life. On one hand, knowledge plays a crucial role in every aspect of human life; the exploration of knowledge has provided a series of conveniences in human activities, and technological advancements resulting from scientific knowledge have accelerated human mobility. However, on the other hand, the development of scientific knowledge and its role has seemingly undermined human existence. Scientific knowledge is no longer just explored but exploited to the fullest. As a result, scientific knowledge has threatened and even destroyed human existence. This article discusses the need for a paradigm that will guide the development of scientific knowledge to remain constructive in human life
THE EBB AND FLOW OF SCIENCE AND RELIGION RELATIONSHIP IN AFFECTING HUMAN LIFE
Get PDFThis research aimed at discovering the root of the problem of the relation between science and religion, identifying how conflict and collaboration between science and religion answer the challenges that human life pose and describing how religion in the future synergize with the advancement of science. This research emphasizes on the need to delve on the issues related to science and religion since the advancement of science often contradicts with some aspect of the Holy Book as well as the assumption that science rattles someone’s faith. Religion is also often regarded as something that hinders the development of science and people who participate in science development are often considered an infidel. There is a skeptical nuance that arose regarding the relationship between science and religion. Thus, it is of utmost importance to investigate on the ebb and flow of science and religion relation in affecting human life. This research employed methodology of philosophy, especially science philosophy in the form of justification and history of science. This research indicated that science and religion are both collaborating and confronting. Religion is used to make meaning of life and science is used to make life easier.

Hakikat Kebenaran; Perspektif Pengetahuan, Ilmu, Agama dan Filsafat
Get PDFThis research is to find out the nature of truth; perspectives of knowledge, science, religion and philosophy. This research uses a library research method with a qualitative approach. The research results show that: 1) The nature of truth. The emergence of a theory of truth can build knowledge from the views and understanding obtained through existing processes. In order to emphasize theory as a benchmark for truth, we can look at the theory of truth from two very common perspectives, namely: the western-based theory of truth and the theory of truth. The nature of truth is rational, empirical and pragmatic. 2) Knowledge includes reasoning and logic, 3) The characteristics of knowledge are that it is arranged methodically, systematically and coherently about a particular field and reality and can be used to explain certain phenomena in the field (knowledge). 4) Religion is human belief or belief in a teaching that comes from God, the bearer of truth, and 5) philosophy is a science that seriously studies the nature of the truth of all things
Konstruksi ilmu pengetahuan dalam pendidikan Islam aliran empirisme, rasionalisme, positivisme, dan idealisme di era kontemporer
No full textThis paper aims to examine the construction of knowledge in Islamic education with a focus on four philosophical schools of thought, namely empiricism, rationalism, positivism, and idealism. The research was conducted using a qualitative approach with a literature review method, using scientific sources from indexed international journals and academic literature related to the integration of Islamic education. The results of the study show that each epistemological school of thought has a unique contribution that complements each other in the development of the Islamic education system. Empiricism emphasises the importance of learning based on real experiences, rationalism reinforces the tradition of critical and logical thinking, positivism provides a research methodology framework based on evidence, while idealism directs education towards the achievement of transcendental goals in the form of developing knowledgeable and moral individuals. The integration of these four perspectives places revelation as the normative foundation that guides reason, experience, and scientific approaches in the educational process. Through this integrative framework, Islamic education is expected to produce students with not only high intellectual abilities, but also balanced moral, spiritual, and social qualities. The practical implications of this research emphasise the need for a curriculum design oriented towards “ilm al-nāfi”, the enhancement of multidisciplinary professionalism among educators, and the strengthening of epistemic digital literacy so that students are able to respond to global challenges and the rapid flow of information in the modern era. Thus, it is believed that Islamic education can become more adaptive, critical, and relevant in building a fair and characterful contemporary civilisation.

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji konstruksi ilmu pengetahuan dalam pendidikan Islam dengan fokus pada empat aliran filsafat yaitu empirisme, rasionalisme, positivisme, dan idealisme. Penelitian dilakukan melalui pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi pustaka, menggunakan sumber-sumber ilmiah dari jurnal internasional ter indeks serta literatur akademik terkait integrasi pendidikan Islam. Hasil kajian memperlihatkan bahwa masing-masing aliran epistemologi memiliki kontribusi khas yang saling melengkapi dalam pengembangan sistem pendidikan Islam. Empirisme menekankan pentingnya pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman nyata, rasionalisme menguatkan tradisi berpikir kritis dan logis, positivisme menghadirkan kerangka metodologi penelitian yang berbasis bukti, sementara idealisme mengarahkan pendidikan pada pencapaian tujuan transendental berupa pembentukan insan kamil yang berilmu dan berakhlak. Integrasi keempat perspektif tersebut menempatkan wahyu sebagai landasan normatif yang mengarahkan akal, pengalaman, dan pendekatan ilmiah dalam proses pendidikan. Melalui kerangka integratif ini, pendidikan Islam diharapkan tidak hanya melahirkan peserta didik dengan kemampuan intelektual tinggi, tetapi juga dengan kualitas moral, spiritual, dan sosial yang seimbang. Implikasi praktis dari penelitian ini menegaskan perlunya desain kurikulum yang berorientasi pada ‘ilm al-nāfi’, peningkatan profesionalisme pendidik yang multidisipliner, serta penguatan literasi digital epistemik agar peserta didik mampu merespons tantangan global dan derasnya informasi di era modern. Dengan demikian, diyakini mampu menjadikan pendidikan Islam lebih adaptif, kritis, dan relevan dalam membangun peradaban kontemporer yang adil dan berkarakter.This paper aims to examine the construction of knowledge in Islamic education with a focus on four philosophical schools of thought, namely empiricism, rationalism, positivism, and idealism.

Effect of donepezil on transcranial magnetic stimulation parameters in Alzheimer's disease
Get PDFIntroduction: There is a need for a reliable, noninvasive biomarker for Alzheimer's disease (AD). We assessed whether short-latency afferent inhibition (SAI), a transcranial magnetic stimulation paradigm that assesses cholinergic circuits of the brain, could become such a biomarker.
Methods: Nineteen patients with AD underwent four SAI testing sessions. The timing of their usual donepezil dose was altered to create different cholinergic states for each session. This was compared to the SAI results from 20 healthy subjects.
Results: SAI was not able to distinguish the different cholinergic states assessed in our study. There appeared to be a diurnal variation in cholinergic function in the control group, which was not present in the AD cohort.
Discussion: SAI does not appear to have a role in diagnosis and assessment of AD patients. The loss of diurnal variation, however, warrants further investigation as it may provide further biochemical insights about AD
