The Theory Of Priority Of Maslahah Over The Legitimacy Of Nass Of The Qur'an And The Hadith: A Conceptual Discussion, Ishak Suliaman May 2006

The Theory Of Priority Of Maslahah Over The Legitimacy Of Nass Of The Qur'an And The Hadith: A Conceptual Discussion, Ishak Suliaman

Research Publications (2006 to 2010)

Isu mengutamakan maslahah berbanding daripada rujukan terhadap teks al-Qur 'an dan al-Hadith sebenarnya merupakan salah teori fiqh yang telah dibincangkan daripada zaman yang lampau sehinggalah ke zaman kini. Teori fiqh ini dilihat telah menjadi isu yang sensasi dan kontroversi apabila terdapat sebilangan sarjana yang menggunakan pendekatan emosional di dalam membincangkan teori ini. Walau bagaimanapun, terdapat pula sebilangan sarjana yang menggunakan pendekatan objektif di dalam mengkaji teori ini. Justeru, artikel ini tidak akan melebarkan aspek sensasi dan kontroversi daripada teori ini. Sebagai satu pendekatan akademik, artikel ini akan menfokuskan kepada sejarah ringkas kewujudan teori ini, aspek hipotetikal yang mendasari teori ini …

Kritik Pemikiran Arab: Metode Dekonstruksi Mohammed Arkoun, Siti Rohmah Soekarba Apr 2006

Kritik Pemikiran Arab: Metode Dekonstruksi Mohammed Arkoun, Siti Rohmah Soekarba

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Mohammed Arkoun is one of an international Islamic modern thinker that his thought comes into Islamic thinking discourses in Indonesia recently. His Islamic thought were influenced by the modern philosophy concepts such as "myths" of Paul Ricouer, postmodern concepts like 'discourse' and 'episteme', which were developed by Michel Foucault as well as 'deconstruction' of Jacques Derrida. If Derrida focused on deconstruction of a discourse as a final concept, on the other hand Arkoun insisted that 'deconstruction' must be followed by 'reconstruction'. Arkoun's reconstruction leaves the limitation, the rigidity and deviation from the past. Arkoun proposes two ways: firstly it is …

If Your God Has Really Spoken To You… Then All The World Must Hear It: The Discourses Of Revelation And Satire In Salman Rushdie’S The Satanic Verses, Conrad William Apr 2006

If Your God Has Really Spoken To You… Then All The World Must Hear It: The Discourses Of Revelation And Satire In Salman Rushdie’S The Satanic Verses, Conrad William

Reconstruction: Studies in Contemporary Culture

In his essay, “Is Nothing Sacred?”, Salman Rushdie lays out a place for literature as an arena in which various perspectives may interact. He thereby provides a context for the controversy regarding his books, most particularly The Satanic Verses. Despite his claims, however, literature, as Rushdie conceives it, operates not simply as an arena for discourse but similarly as a rule-maker, controlling the discourse which operates within its bounds. The Satanic Verses, in particular, suggests that revelation as it passes through unstable and hybrid human language loses its authority and power to speak purely or dogmatically. In so …


Interpreting Their Blood: The Contradictions Of Approaches To Menstruation Through Religious Education, Ritual And Culture In Rabat, Morocco, Nitzan Ziv Apr 2006

Interpreting Their Blood: The Contradictions Of Approaches To Menstruation Through Religious Education, Ritual And Culture In Rabat, Morocco, Nitzan Ziv

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

Menstruation is often perceived by individuals of different cultural and religious backgrounds as dirty or impure, and therefore has become a demeaning feature of womanhood. The dialectical concepts of purity and impurity are integral parts of Islamic religion, thought and practice as they draw lines between those things sacred and those profane. Women’s religious education, in particular, is critical in establishing positive reinforcement for their perceptions of their physical selves and their role in society. However, education in this manner cannot be limited to schools and religious institutions; family and culture are integral parts of a women’s education about subjects …

Understanding Jurisprudential Approaches To Islam, Marc L. Roark Feb 2006

Understanding Jurisprudential Approaches To Islam, Marc L. Roark

ExpressO

The United States recent deal with a United Arab Emirites Company to operate seven U.S. Ports highlights a growing tension in U.S. and Arabic commercial relations. One tension that has remained unnoticed is the role that U.S Courts play in interpreting Islamic texts when the commercial or legal outcome depends on an understanding of the religious culture. This article describes seven cases that demonstrate various approaches to this problem. This article utilizes an approach by James Boyd White, and suggests that translation or its kin transliteration can help judges in deciding Islamic legal principles.
