Tafsir Ayat-ayat Hukum ‘Ali al-Sayis dan ‘Ali al-Sabuni (Perbandingan Penafsiran Ayat-ayat Hukum Qisas)
No full textHasil penelitian ini menunjukkan terdapat persamaan dan perbedaan antara ‘Ali al-Sayis dan ‘Ali al-Sabuni, di antara persamaannya adalah keduanya menggunakan metode muqaran dan menggabungkan tafsir bi al-mas‘sur dan bi al-ra’yi di dalam
menguraikan penafsirannya terkait ayat-ayat hukum qisas serta menyusun tafsirnya berdasarkan urutan surat dan ayat di dalam mushaf al-Qur’an. Keduanya tidak berbeda dalam memahami makna qisas, yaitu menghukum pelaku sesuai dengan tindakannya terhadap korban. ‘Ali al-Sayis dan ‘Ali al-Sabuni sepakat bahwa (QS al-Baqarah/2: 178-179) merupakan perintah menegakkan hukum qisas pada kasus pembunuhan
dengan sengaja. Adapun perbedaannya antara lain, ‘Ali al-Sayis membahas qisas pada jiwa (QS al-Baqarah/2: 178-179) dan selain jiwa, (QS al-Ma’idah/5: 45), sementara itu ‘Ali al-Sabuni hanya membahas terkait qisas pada jiwa saja, sebab ia tidak membahas QS al-Ma’idah/5 :45 secara khusus. Dari aspek menentukan sikap atas perbedaan pendapat ulama, ‘Ali al-Sabuni lebih tegas menyatakan sikapnya, berbeda dengan ‘Ali al-Sayis yang pada umumnya tidak melakukan tarjih, dan hanya memaparkan perbedaan pendapat para ulama. ‘Ali al-Sabuni terkesan tekstual hal itu terlihat ketika ia memilih pendapat Jumhur dan tidak melakukan penjelasan lebih jauh terhadap dalil yang digunakan Jumhur, yaitu riwayat dari al-Bukhari yang menyatakan seorang muslim tidak di-qisas karena membunuh kafir zimmi. Hal ini berbeda dengan ‘Ali al-Sayis yang memaparkan beberapa kemungkinan-kemungkinan terkait makna hadis tersebut

A critical analysis of Christian responses to Islamic claims about the work of the Prophet Muhammad, ‘the Messenger of God’.
No full textThe aims of this study are to analyse critically the different Christian responses to the Islamic understanding of the work of Muhammad. Chapter one consists a short introduction leading to an appraisal of Muhammad which incorporates historical, hagiographal and Quranic source material, and in the light of relevant Christian and Muslim scholarship. The second chapter presents a summary critical analysis of Muhammad in Christian theological perspective, from 661 A.D. to modern times. Chapter three presents a critique of Christian responses to the Muslim allegations that the text of the Bible has been infected with corruption; and that Muhammad's advent and status are foretold in the unadulterated' scriptures, and in the Gospel of Barnabas. Chapter four examines the theological significance of the work of Muhammad for Christians. Thus, Jesus and Muhammad are critically assessed and contrasted in order to ascertain the importance, for Christians, of the Muslim claims in respect of Muhammad as ’the messenger of God’. Chapter five provides a critical evaluation of the various Christian responses to Muhammad. It is argued that many of the said responses have been entangled in myths and misperceptions which have severely distorted the true account of Muhammad's work. Consequently, many Christians have failed to appreciate the divine legitimacy of Muhammad's call to prophethood. Further, it is argued that Christians should accept that Muhammad is a genuine prophet, and the messenger of God. However, Muhammad's use of the power-structure in order to maintain Islam is in sharp contrast to Jesus’ decision to face the consequences of his ministry passively through faith in God. Accordingly, orthodox Christian belief in the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus provides another dimension to prophethood, where the messenger and the message become one, an identification which finds no parallel in Islam, and which, in the nature of the case, cannot find a parallel
