KEBEBASAN BERAGAMA MENURUT IRSHAD MANJI
No full textSetiap orang berhak atas kebebasan beragama atau berkepercayaan. Dalam
Islam, kebebasan untuk memeluk agama atau kepercayaan demikian, sebenarnya
cukup mendapatkan legitimasi. Beberapa ayat dalam Al-Qur’an dan praktik Islam
Nabi Muhammad dapat dikatakan telah memberi pembenaran atas hal itu. Namun,
dalam praktik Islam saat ini, idealita tersebut masih jauh panggang dari api. Irshad
Manji adalah salah satu pemikir Islam yang turut gelisah akan realitas tersebut.
Irshad Manji merupakan tokoh yang begitu getol mengkampanyekan terciptanya
kebebasan beragama. Dari sinilah kemudian menjadi penting bagi penulis untuk
menganalisa pemikiran Irshad Manji dalam hal kebebasan beragama.
Masalah yang menjadi pokok bahasan dalam skripsi ini adalah konsep
Irshad Manji tentang kebebasan beragama dan kritik terhadap pemikiran Irshad
Manji. Metodologi yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah model (library
research). Yaitu, mengumpulkan data yang berkenaan dengan dengan tema
skripsi ini untuk kemudian diolah. Sementara pendekatan yang dipakai dalam
penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan filosofis.
Hasil penelitian ini adalah secara umum konsep kebebasan beragama
memberikan kebebasan kepada setiap individu ataupun kolektif untuk memeluk
dan melaksanakan ritual keagamaan sesuai agamanya atau bahkan tidak
beragama. Sementara kebebasan beragama dalam persektif Irshad Manji lebih
menekankan kebebasan beragama yang berlandaskan Islam. Irshad Manji
mengatakan bahwa sejatinya Islam adalah agama yang sangat menjunjung tinggi
kebebasan beragama. Namun, dalam praktiknya ide tentang kebebasan beragama
ini kerap dibelenggu oleh identitas kelompok (sebagai muslim) dan percampuran
sempurna budaya (Arab) dengan Islam. Karena itu, sebagai upaya menegakkan
kebebasan beragama dalam Islam, Irshad Manji kemudian mengkampanyekan
pentingnya individualitas dan Muslim kontra-budaya. Individualitas adalah upaya
internalisasi paradigma bahwa identitas itu menjebak, sementara integritas sebagai
individu itu membebaskan. Sedangkan yang dimaksud dengan Muslim kontrabudaya
adalah upaya internalisasi pemikiran bahwa budaya itu tidak sakral
sekalipun ia terbalut rapi dalam praktik agama.
Gamabaran umum kebebasan beragama serta pergolakan pemikiran dan
kritik atas kebebasan beragama Irshad Manji inilah yang nantinya akan dibahas
secara komprehensif dalam skripsi in

Prevalence of anxiety and depression among Medical Students in MMCH, Sindh, Pakistan
No full textIntroduction: Medical education is stressful. High levels of stress have been seen in medical students in various studies. The academic stressors include the volume of material to be learned, academic performance and evaluation, examination and continuous assessment, mental tension and too much work load. All this can result in decreased life satisfaction among students. Stress during medical school can lead to problems later in professional life compromising patient care.
Objectives: To know the prevalence of anxiety and depression among medical students of Muhammad Medical College, Mirpurkhas, Sindh, Pakistan
Methodology: A Cross-sectional study was done on the students of Muhammad Medical College, Mirpurkhas, Sindh, who had spent more than six months in the medical college. Self-administered questionnaire was given to the students, present in the class and willing to participate in the study. The instrument used to assess the anxiety and depression levels was the, Aga Khan University Anxiety and Depression Scale (AKUADS). Additional quotations regarding socioeconomic variables were also included in them survey instrument, such as student’s age order, family monthly income, and gender, marital status.
Results: Using anxiety and depression scale it was found out that 318 (96.36%) students had anxiety and depression. Among them 215 (67.61%) were females and 103 (32.38%) males. Prevalence of anxiety and depression in students of Final, 4th year and 3rd year 2nd and 1st years was 13%, 15%, 20% and 21%, 28% respectively. It was significantly higher in 1st year and 2nd year students, as compared to final and 4th year and students.

Homoseksual dalam surat Al-A’rāf ayat 80-81 (kritik pemikiran Irshad Manji)
No full textDi Indonesia, perkawinan harus melibatkan hubungan antara perempuan dan laki-laki. Artinya, sebuah perkawinan dianggap sah ketika semua unsur terpenuhi yakni adanya perempuan dan laki-laki (hubungan heteroseksual). Allah menciptakan manusia tidak hanya terdiri dari dua jenis saja, yakni perempuan dan laki-laki. Ulama’ pun mewajibkan perkawinan heteroseksual.
Dari jaman dulu penyimpangan seksual sudah muncul ke permukaan, tercatat dalam sejarah kisah tentang kaum Nabi Luṭ, dikisahkan bahwa kaum Nabi Luṭ melakukan praktek homoseksual sehingga mendapat adzab dari Allah swt. Sekarang, hubungan seksual yang tidak wajar yang sering disebut dengan LGBT (Lesbi, Gay, Biseksual dan Transseksual) kembali mencuat. Bahkan, di belahan bumi utara, tepatnya Kanada muncul seorang tokoh muslim bernama Irshad Manji yang membolehkan hubungan pernikahan sesama jenis (homoseksual). Sehingga menarik peneliti untuk membahas tentang pemikirannya. Selanjutnya penelitian ini berjudul “homoseksual dalam Surat al-A’rāf ayat 80-81 (Kritik pemikiran Irshad Manji)”.
Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian dengan jenis penelitian Library Research, metode analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis isi, penelitian yang mencoba untuk mendeskripsikan tentang pemikiran Irshad Manji tentang homoseksual. Kemudian, teori Manji ini ditelusuri dan dikaji untuk dicari keautentikan teori yang diangkat oleh Manji.
Metodologi yang digunakan Manji pemikirannya adalah the progressive ijtihadist, yaitu para pemikir muslim modern/kontemporer yang berupaya menafsir ulang ajaran agama agar bisa menjawab kebutuhan masyarakat modern. Mereka berpijak pada konsep dasar usul fikih dengan mengedepankan konsep contextual based ijtihad (progressive ijtihadist) yang bertitik-tolak dari nilai-nilai dasar Islam yang esensial (maqâshid assyarî`ah).
Irshad Manji menitik beratkan penafsiran ayat tentang kisah Nabi Luṭ pada Surat al-A’rāf ayat 80-81 pada sisi lain dari dosa yang dilakukan kaumnya, bukan pada dosa melakukan homoseksual. Sehingga beliau membolehkan perilaku homoseksual. Serta beliau berargumen bahwa pelarangan homoseksual adalah hasil dari budaya primitif sehingga dapat dilawan.
Pemikiran Irshad Manji tentang pembolehan homoseksual ini, bertolak belakang dengan pemikiran dan pemahaman ulama lain. Di sisi lain, para ulama baik klasik maupun modern menitik beratkan pada perilaku homoseksual yang merupakan penyimpangan seksual. Manji juga tidak memperhatikan pada ayat lain tentang fitrah manusia. Sementara dalam perspektif ilmu tafsir dibutuhkan ilmu munasabah ayat yaitu ilmu yang membahas tentang keterkaitan satu ayat dengan ayat yang lainnya sehingga dalam memahami sebuah ayat akan lebih komprehensif
Thermal management of electronics: An experimental analysis of triangular, rectangular and circular pin-fin heat sinks for various PCMs
No full textThis study implies experimental investigation for optimization of heat transfer in electronic integrated circuits using close packed phase change materials (PCMs) filled pin-fin heat sinks. The aim of this study is to find the most efficient pin-fin configuration filled with optimum PCM to extend the operating range of electronic circuits. The experimental methodology is based upon variation of pin-fin configurations in rectangular, round and triangular cross-sections. Each configuration is allowed a pin-fin volumetric percentage of 9%. For analysis using PCM a volume fraction of 90% is maintained and six PCMs with different thermo-physical properties (varying melting temperatures, latent heats and heat capacities) are selected. These include paraffin wax, RT-54, RT-44, RT-35HC, SP-31 and n-eicosane. Moreover, the power levels mimicking heat input range between 5 W and 8 W. The resulting information is analyzed for the performance of a heat sink with and without PCM. Besides that, PCM ascendency is manipulated in terms of operational time, enhancement ratios, Stefan number and storage ratio. The outcomes suggest that triangular pin-fins are found to be the most effective pin-fin configuration for heat transfer both with and without PCM
