    Symbols have been a crucial part of all religions in the world for they can represent religious values, ideas, and events. This study seeks to examine the meaning of religious symbols in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, and their role in maintaining socio-religious harmony in the region. Qualitative and interpretative in nature, data collection techniques in this study were carried out through interviews, observation, and documentation. Meanwhile, data analysis employed a grounded theory design. The results of this study indicate that the symbols of religious pluralism are visible on the Pura Meru (next to the Nurul Falah mosque), on the statues of various religious figures at the Pura Mayura, and on the Pura Lingsar, a home for an ancient building called Kemalik. These symbols have been recognized as common properties of Hindus and Muslims and as places to get blessings. There is also the Topat War festival which is a legacy of Muslim and Hindu traditions used as a medium to pour out any form of anger among religious adherents and then end with peace. Those symbols are believed to be able to foster togetherness and harmony in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. In general, these religious symbols have made Cakranegara and Lingsar peaceful areas free from religious conflicts to date

So, Islam people must comprehend Shari'a, Nahu, Shoref (grammar), Fiqh (Islamic law), astronomy, language, math, geometry, algebra, chemistry, and geography integrated to advance in this time and the future. His ideas were based on the scientific and dialectical foundations of Bayani, Burhani, and Irfani's epistemology, which is the basis for developing Islamic education.

    This article shows the numerous benefits created in the 7th-13th century A.D. by a primary education institution named Kuttab. Kuttab is an educational institution that teaches the Qur'an to be read and memorized, history to be studied, and Arabic verses. This article utilizes an approach to literature research, gathering different references related to Kuttab. The empirical content process then evaluates the relation, and conclusions are drawn from the reference analysis. This paper concludes that with education in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah, Kuttab institutions have a similar curriculum. The excellence of Kuttab focuses more on memorizing the Qur'an so that in the golden age (7-12 years), Kuttab students will remember the entire material of the Qur'an, in addition to teachers who have excelled and skills. Unlike Ibtidaiyah madrasahs, which do not focus students on memorizing the Qur'an, and as teachers in Kuttab, teachers are also far from professionalism. In comparison to the current madrasah Ibtidaiyah curriculum, the learning materials in Kuttab are thin.Keywords : curriculum, kuttab, madrasah, teacher, student

    The Debate about Argument and Spirit of Works of Al-Gazālī’s and Ibn Rushd’s as well as the Implication on Islamic Thoughts

    Full text link
    The decline of Islamic science is seen as impacts of al-Gazālī’s criticism to philosophy and controversy surrounding the thought of al-Gazālī and Ibn Rushd. During the Golden Age in the medieval period, Muslim scholars and philosophers had been the world references for science and technology development. They lost this legacy because they embraced orthodoxy rather than rationality. Al-Gazālī had written a book called Tahāfut al-Falāsifah (The Collapse or Inconsistence of the Philosophers) which criticised Islamic philosophers especially Ibn Sīnā and Al-Fārābī. Later after the death of al-Gazālī, Ibn Rushd wrote book tahāfut al-tahāfut which commented on al-Gazālī’s book Tahāfut al-falāsifah. It was arguing over Muslims should advance in science and technology in this modern era as it was evident during the Golden Age Islamic Era (the 7th up to the 13th centuries) whereby Muslims were the world references in science and technology development. However, after the period Muslims abandoned rationality and have remained so up to the present. This situation caused Islamic thoughts to move from rationality to orthodoxy. Al-Gazālī has been considered as the cause of the decline in Islamic Thought as he critiqued Islamic philosophers especially Ibn Sīnā and al-Fārābī in his book Tahāfut al-Falāsifah. Later Ibn Rushd wrote book Tahāfut al-Tahāfut which commented on al-Gazālī’s book Tahāfut al-Falāsifah. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.20414/ujis.v20i1.80

    Abu Abdullah Ibn Musa Al-Khawarizmi (Pelopor Matematika dalam Islam)

    Under the Caliph al-Ma’mũn (reigned 813-833) Al-Khwārizmī became a member of the “House of Wisdom” (Dār Al-Hikma), a kind of academy of scientists set up at Baghdad, probably by Caliph Harũn Al-Rashīd, but owing its preeminence to the interest of Al-Ma’mũn, a great patron of learning and scientific investigation. It was for Al-Ma’ũn that Al-Khwārizmī composed his astronomical treatise, and his Algebra also is dedicated to that ruler. Using the old Roman numeral system made advanced math next to impossible. With a number system that goes from 0 to 9, Al-Khawarizmi is able to develop fields such as algebra, which he initially used to calculate Muslim inheritance laws. He builds more on the geometry of the Greeks, and develops the basic ideas many high school math students can recognize today. But his real issue remains with the number zero. It cannot be proven to exist using math. The old Indian texts insist zero divided by zero equals zero. But Al-Khawarizmi knows that any division by zero is impossible. Eventually he comes to the conclusion that the zero must simply be accepted without being proven. Furthermore, he reports to the Caliph Al-Ma'mun that belief in Allah is the same: it cannot be proven using science, but must be accepted on faith in the religion. Al-Khawarizmi was as much a philosopher as he was a mathematician. In addition to math, he writes a compendium on geography that lists the latitude and longitude of 2,400 cities around the world. He also writes books on the astrolabe, sundials, and even the Jewish calendar. For 700 years after his death, European mathematicians cite him in their works, referring to him as “Algorismi”. The modern word for a complex mathematical formula, algorithm, is derived from his name. His legacy lives on, even if the modern world that he helped build has all but forgotten of his contributions. &nbsp

    DISKURSUS MODERASI BERAGAMA: PENERAPAN NILAI-NILAI MODERASI BERAGAMA PADA KURIKULUM MERDEKA DALAM MENGATASI ISU-ISU KEAGAMAAN

    Full text link
    This study aims to explore the application of religious moderation values ​​in the Merdeka Curriculum in addressing religious issues that are developing in Indonesia. These issues include radicalization, intolerance, and inter-religious conflict that have the potential to damage harmony and diversity. Amid these challenges, the Merdeka Curriculum provides a more flexible space for teaching and character building, which is expected to introduce and instill religious moderation values ​​in students from an early age. The methodology used in this study is a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis. Data were collected through literature studies and interviews with educators and education observers who understand the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum. This study also involved document analysis related to the application of religious moderation values ​​in Religious Education and Citizenship subjects. The results of the study indicate that the application of religious moderation values ​​in the Merdeka Curriculum can strengthen tolerance and inclusive attitudes among students. This curriculum provides an opportunity for educators to develop learning that is more open to diversity, by emphasizing the principles of mutual respect, appreciating differences, and avoiding fanaticism. However, there are still challenges in implementation, such as the lack of in-depth understanding of religious moderation in some areas and limited training for educators. This discussion focuses on the importance of strengthening religious moderation in education to create a harmonious society and reduce the potential for religious conflict. This research is expected to contribute to the formulation of more effective and inclusive education policies, as well as strengthening the values ​​of Pancasila in everyday life
