Impact of Web technologies on student-lecturer expert power relationship
Full text linkExpert power is “the power that comes from having knowledge and expertise in a particular area” (Nazarko, 2004). In the history of the development of higher education, the relationship between the lecturer and the students has changed because of many different factors. Before the internet and web revolution, the lecturer used to be the main information source for his/her students. The web as a modern source of knowledge is now used universally and this spreading trend might affect the relationship between the lecturer and his students. Understanding the impact of this change appears to be important as it would be employed in improving teaching techniques. In this area, many studies have focused on the impact of using the internet and web applications on students and lecturers. These studies have widely investigated this impact on student’s achievements, attitude and also have shown how the role and performance of the faculty have changed. This paper aims to investigate the impact of using web resources as a source of knowledge on the student-lecturer relationship from students’ perspectives. The investigation focuses on how students’ knowledge gained from using websites has impacted on the relationship with their lecturer as a knowledgeable person which theoretically means Expert power. 1661 students from 30 universities/ educational institutions participated in this research
Hermeneutika Al-Qur’an Kontekstual: Metode Menafsirkan Al-Qur’an Abdullah Saeed
Full text linkQuranic exegesis has a special place in the development of Islamic intellectual tradition and civilization at large. As the main source of Islamic teaching, for centuries Muslims have attempted to understand the various meanings of the Qur’an in order to be in line with the current needs of the society through the process of contextualization. In this article, the author presents and explains the way in which Abdullah Saeed, a professor in Islamic studies from the the University of Melbourne, Australia, contextualize the meaning of the Quran. In particular, this article analyzes some methodological aspects proposed by Saeed in the qontextualization of the Qur’an: 1) identifying the world of the text; 2) analyzing text critically; 3) connecting the text to the early Islamic community as the first receivers; and 4) relating the text to the current needs of society. Keywords: Quranic exegesis, Abdullah Saeed, tafsir methodology, contextualization
Bunga bank konvensional menurut pandangan Abdullah Saeed
Full text linkBunga adalah salah satu pendapatan yang dihasilkan oleh perbankan konvensinal. Dalam praktiknya, yang menggunakan sistem bunga ini bukan hanya di bank saja, tetapi di lembaga keuangan non bank pun juga ada yang menggunakan sistem bunga sebagai sumber pendapatan bisnisnya. Untuk menjelaskan mengenai bunga bank pada penelitian ini, penulis merujuk pada pemikiran Abdullah Saeed. Saeed berpandangan bahwa bunga bank konvensional tidaklah haram, karena tidak mengandung unsur-unsur yang merupakan tujuan utama pelarangan riba.
Rumusan Masalah: Pertama, Bagaimana bunga bank menurut Abdullah Saeed? Kedua, Bgaimana relevansinya dalam dunia perbankan di Indonesia? Jenis penilitian yang digunakan adalah kepustakaan (library research) yaitu mengumpulkan data atau karya ilmiah yang bertujuan dengan objek penelitian atau pengumpulan data yang bersifat kepustakaan, baik berupa buku, catatan, maupun laporan hasil penelitian dari penelitian terdahulu.
Hasil penelitian ini: pertama, Abdullah Saeed memandang bahwa pinjaman dengan sistem bunga tidak menyebabkan ketidakadilan, maka pinjaman tersebut dibolehkan. Saeed melihat bahwa riba di zaman jahiliyah berbeda dengan mekanisme sistem bunga dalam perbankan konvensional saat ini, apalagi sampai pada terjadinya penindasan dan penganiyaan yang dilakukan oleh kreditur kepada debitur. Kedua, Dilihat dari relevansi sosial ekonomi, budaya ekonomi dan ekonomi serta politik ekonomi mengenai bunga bank jika dihubungkan dengan pemikiran Abdullah Saeed di Indonesia saat ini yaitu sangatlah berkaitan. Karena bunga bank memiliki dampak positif bagi bank konvensional maupun para nasabah yang sudah menanamkan modalnya. Dari sistem bunga ini, tidak hanya salah satu pihak saja yang diuntungkan, tetapi kedua belah pihak. Selain itu, transaksi pinjam meminjam dalam sistem perbankan juga dilakukan secara jelas, terbuka dan dilindungi oleh undang-undang. Jadi, kegiatan perbankan di Indonesia sekarang ini sangatlah berkaitan sekali dengan pemikiran Abdullah Saeed tersebut, dan tidak ada pihak yang dirugikan dari sistem bunga bank ini.
ABSTRACT
Interest is one of the incomes that generated by conventional bank. In practice, those who use this interest system are not only banks, but also non-bank financial that use the interest system as a source of their business income. In this study, the author refers to the thoughts of Abdullah Saeed. Saeed thinks that conventional bank interest is not unlawful, because it does not contain elements which are the main purpose of prohibiting usury.
The problem of this study: first, What is the bank's interest according to Abdullah Saeed? Second, What the relevant among the interest and Indonesian banking? The type of research used is library research which is collecting data or scientific work aimed at the object of research or collection of library-based data, both in the form of books, notes and research reports from previous research.
The results of this study: first, Abdullah Saeed views that loans with an interest system do not cause inequity, it is permitted. Saeed sees that usury in the jahiliyah era was different from the current system of conventional banking's interest, moreover it leads to the persecution and abuse by creditors to the debtor. Second, Seeing from the relevance of socio-economic, cultural-economic and political-economic regarding to bank interest if it linked to Abdullah Saeed's thinking in Indonesia today, it is very relevant. Because bank interest has a positive impact on conventional banks its elf and the customers who have invested their capital. From this system, both parties get the benefits. In addition, lending and borrowing transactions in banking system are also carried out clearly, openly and protected by law. So, Indonesian banking activities are very closely related to Abdullah Saeed's thinking and no party is harmed from this bank's interest system
Democracy in Pakistan: Value Change and Challenges of Institution Building
Full text linkDemocracy as a system of governance and interest representation demands respect for dissent and opposition. It recognises the principle of majority rule and guarantees protection of minorities. Democracy also builds faith in electoral contestation to gain public office and gives legitimacy to political parties as primary instruments for acquisition and transfer of power from one set of individuals to another. Unfortunately, despite the significance of the above elements, no serious studies have been undertaken on Pakistan’s experimentation with democracy. Given a history of weak party system and prolonged military rule, most of the studies focus on the military, political parties, constitutional history, or in a descriptive way, attribute the failure of democracy to the inadequacies of the politicians [Ahmed (1987); Rizvi (1987); Callard (1957) and Afzal (1976)]. It is only recently that some theoretically meaningful and rigorous empirical writings have appeared on elections, procedures and practices of electoral contestation and on problems of transition from authoritarian regimes towards democracy [Waseem (1989); Wilder (1995); Talyor (1992); Rais (1997) and Shafqat (1997)]. It merits attention and recognition that among the Muslim states and developing world, Pakistan is one of those few states, where people have shown vigour and some vitality to adopt a democratic parliamentary system and through popular mass movements demonstrated disapproval of military dictatorships. An enduring feature of Pakistani culture, history and politics has been an aspiration for democracy [Hugh and Rose (1997)]. The passion for democracy continues to resurge, despite ethnic, social class, religious cleavages, strong authoritarian tendencies and prolonged military rule.
Pandangan Abdullah Saeed Pada Konsep Nasikh Mansukh
No full textTeori nasikh mansukh dari masa klasik hingga sekarang masih menjadi perdebatan antara ulama’ terkait kesepakatan dan penolakan.

Salah satu di antara ulama’ yang sepakat adalah Abdullah Saeed, beliau seorang mufasir kontemporer yang menawarkan metode baru dalam menafsirkan Alquran yakni metode kontekstualis sehingga pada makalah ini peneliti tertarik mengkaji konsep nasikh mansukh menurut Saeed, alasan Saeed sepakat dengan adanya konsep nasikh mansukh dan relavansi nasikh mansukh menurut Saeed dalam menafsiri dan memahami teks-teks Alquran. Hasil dari kajian ini, peneliti menemukan beberapa hal, yakni: konsep nasikh menurut Saeed adalah pencabutan hukum dengan hukum yang datang setelanya, alasan Saeed setuju dengan adanya nasikh mansukh dalam Alquran adalah sebagai bentuk kemudahan yang Allah berikan kepada umat sesuai dengan kondisi dan situasi kebutuhan umat, kemudian untuk relevansi nasikh menurut Saeed dalam menjadi pijakan untuk menafsiri ulang Alquran yang sudah tidak relevan agar bisa memenuhi kebutuhan umat yang sesuai dengan kondisi dan situasi
