  • SUFISM AS the CORE of ISLAM: a Review of Imam Junayd Al-Baghdadi's Concept of Tasawwuf
    Teosofia: Indonesian Journal of Islamic Mysticism, Vol. 9, No. 2, 2020, pp. 171-192 e-ISSN: 2540-8186; p-ISSN: 2302-8017 DOI: 10.21580/tos.v9i2.6170 SUFISM AS THE CORE OF ISLAM: A Review of Imam Junayd Al-Baghdadi’s Concept of Tasawwuf Cucu Setiawan UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung [email protected] Maulani UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung [email protected] Busro UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung [email protected] Abstract: This paper studies the thoughts of Abu ‘l-Qasim al-Junaid ibn Muhamad ibn Al-Junayd al-Khazzaz al-Qawariri Nihawandi al-Baghdadi, one of the prominent figures during the early development of Sufism, or also known in Arabic as tasawwuf. This study attempts to find a confluence between tasawwuf and Islam, on the basis that Islamic teachings are going through degradation in meanings and tasawwuf is often considered as a bid’ah (heresy) in Islamic studies. This research used a library research method and Junayd al-Baghdadi’s treatise, Rasail Junaid, as the primary data source. This study concludes that tasawwuf is not only an aspect or a segment of Islamic teachings, but it is the core of Islam itself as a religion. There are three central theories of tasawwuf by Junayd al-Baghdadi: mitsaq (covenant), fana (annihilation of self), and tawhid (unification). Based on these three theories, we can conclude that Junayd al- Baghdadi succeeded in conciliating the debate among tasawwuf and fiqh scholars. He also managed to knock down the stigma of tasawwuf as a heresy. His thoughts redefine tasawwuf into a simple and acceptable teaching for Muslims.

  • The Mysticism of Abu Y4zid Al-Bistami
    THE MYSTICISM OF ABU Y4ZID AL-BISTAMI By: Mohd Fakhrudin Abdul Mukti Abstrak Artikel ini membahaskan pemiHran tasawufAbu Yazid al- Bistami Konsep al-fana' yang dihayati oleh beliau dalam usaha menghampirkan diri kepada Allah s.w.t. telah menghasilkan suatu implikasi yang penuh dengan tanda tanya terutama kata-kata ganjil dan kontroversi yang terhembur dari bibirnya. Artikel inijuga meninjau sejauh mana pengaruh pemikiran mistik Hinduisme dalam tasawuf al-Bistami atau sekurang-kurangnya persamaan- persamaan di antara keduanya. Introduction The origins of the Sufi movement are attributed in great measure to the role played by the earliest Sufis of the Islamic era, the 'iabi'in' ((he followers of the Prophet). Many later Sufis could not avoid recognizing the influence of these early masters when expe riencing this kind of mystical life as a manifestation of their under standing or mterpretation of Islamic teachings based on the Qur'an and the Traditions, the practical life of the Prophet himself, and of his close companions. If one examines the teachings of the later Sufis in comparison with those of the earliest Sufis, one finds the roots of the latter in these teachings. Abu Yazid al-Bistami (d. 261 A.H. or 264/874 or 877 A.D.) 11 AFKAR-B1L 1/2000 was regarded by Abu Nasr al-Sarraj (d. 380 A.H) as one of the prominent earliest Sufi masters ever known. Abu Yazid's ideas in fluenced many Sufis after him, such as al-Junayd (d. 291 A.H/910 A.D), al-Shibll (d. 334 A.H/945 A.D) and al-Hallaj (d.

  • Bab Iv Metode Tazkiyat Al-Nafs Abd Al Shamad Al Palimbani A
    BAB IV METODE TAZKIYAT AL-NAFS ABD AL SHAMAD AL PALIMBANI A. Dekripsi Kitab Hidayat Al Salikin dan Kitab Sayr Al Salikin Sebagaimana telah dijelaskan bahwa tujuan tazkiyat al-nafs tidak lepas dari tujuan hidup manusia itu sendiri, yakni untuk mendapatkan kebahagiaan jasmani dan rohani, materiel maupun spiritual dan duniawi maupun ukhrawi. Kebahagiaan seperti ini merupakan kesempurnaan hidup manusia. Tujuan hidup manusia itu sendiri adalah untuk memperoleh kesempurnaan jiwanya. Sedangkan menurut ilmu tasawuf, hakikat manusia adalah jiwanya. Namun, kesempurnaan jiwa itu sendiri terletak pada kesuciannya. Suci atau kotornya jiwa manusia akan menjadi penentu bahagia atau sengsaranya manusia. Adapun dalam pencapaian tujuan akhir tasawuf melalui tazkiyat al-nafs melalui berbagai cara dan metodenya memang bervariasi berdasarkan kemampuan si salik dalam menempuh tahapan tahapan yang harus dijalani dan dilakoni. Mereka yang bertendensi moral/tasawuf akhlaki merasa cukup dengan aspek-aspek praktis. Adapula yang melangkah jauh lebih dari sekadar tujuan moral, yaitu kepada pengenalan Allah Subhanahu wa Ta‟ala melalui ilmu ma‟rifat dengan segala syarat, cara, zikir, pendekatan dan metodologinya. Selain itu, ada juga yang berwawasan filsafat dan melalui tasawuf berupaya 114 115 menafsirkan alam dan mendiskripsikan hubungannya dengan Tuhan Maha Pencipta.1 Berkenaan dengan ajaran/pemikirannya dalam bidang tasawuf Abd al- Shamad al-Palimbani mengambil jalan tengah antara ajaran tasawuf Al Ghazali dan wihdatul wujud Ibnu „Arabi; bahwa manusia sempurna (Insan Kamil) adalah manusia yang memandang hakikat Yang Maha Esa itu dalam fenomena alam yang serba aneka dengan tingkat ma‟rifat tertinggi, sehingga mampu “melihat” Allah sebagai Penguasa Mutlak. Syeikh Abd al-Shamad al-Palimbani mempunyai pandangan bahwa tasawuf Al Ghazali dan tasawuf Ibnu Arabi merupakan dua aliran tasawuf yang saling melengkapi.

  • Invocation and Illumination According To
    Invocation and illumination (al-adhkar wa-l anwar) according to Ibn 'Arabi Souad Hakim Rare are those who have left the noisy crowd and clung to the door of His Presence. They have displayed the 'stations' (maqa­ mat) of those who came before and the 'spiritual states' (ahwal) of those who followed. They have followed the way of purification and spiritual training and that of love and invocation; they have 1993) waited to hear the question 'Who is at the door?' ... 'It's so and 14, so' ... 'Open', says a voice. But between the withdrawal of the heart and the hearing of the word 'Open' there is a garden of para­ dise and a portion of hell. (JMIAS Abu Yazid al-Bistami, for example, spent more than thirty-five years in the hell of struggling with his soul and the paradise of spiritual states. For twelve years he was the blacksmith of his soul: he cast it into the furnace of spiritual training, burnt it in the fire of struggle and pounded it with the hammer of blame, until he had Contemplation made of it a 'Mirror', which he polished with worship and devo­ & tion for five years. When his soul became a polished mirror cap­ able of reflecting his reality to him, he looked at himself in it, and Prayer then discovered a 'girdle' of wonder, pride, and satisfaction with respect to his own acts. He worked another five years to erase these attributes from the surface of the mirror of his soul, all that without ever hearing the word 'Open'.

  • Sufi Commentaries on the Qur1an in Classical Islam
    SÁFI COMMENTARIES ON THE QUR1AN IN CLASSICAL ISLAM The Classical period of Islam, from the tenth to the fifteenth centuries, was the period in which the most influential commentaries on the Qur1an were written. Sufi Commentaries on the Qur1an in Classical Islam looks at the unique contributions of Sufis to this genre and how these contributions fit into the theological and exegetical discussions of the time. The study begins with an examination of several key hermeneutical assumptions of Sufis, including their understanding of the ambiguous and multivalent nature of the Qur1anic text, the role that both the intellect and spiritual disciplines play in acquiring knowledge of its meanings, and the ever-changing nature of the self which seeks this kind of knowledge. The second half of the study is an analysis and comparison of the themes and styles of several different commentaries on the Qur1anic story of Musa (Moses) and al-Khadir; the figure of Maryam (The Virgin Mary); and the Light Verse. It demonstrates that, while Sufi interpretation has often been characterized as allegorical, these writings are more notable for their variety of philosophical, visionary, literary, and homiletic styles. Sufi Commentaries on the Qur1an in Classical Islam is the first comprehensive study of the contributions of Sufis to the genre of commentaries on the Qur1an and is essential reading for those with research interests in Sufism, Qur1anic exegesis and Islam. Kristin Zahra Sands is a Mellon Fellow and Assistant Professor of Islamic Studies at Sarah Lawrence College. Her research interests include Sufism, Qur1anic exegesis, and Islam and media. ROUTLEDGE STUDIES IN THE QURAN Series Editor: Andrew Rippin University of Victoria, Canada In its examination of critical issues in the scholarly study of the Quran and its commentaries, this series targets the disciplines of archaeology, history, textual history, anthropology, theology, and literary criticism.

  • THE POSITION of NAQSHABANDI ORDER in the ISLAMIC LAW by SHAYKH ISLAM WAN SULAIMAN WAN SIDEK (D.1354H/1935M)
    Teosofia: Indonesian Journal of Islamic Mysticism, Vol. 9, No. 2, 2020, pp. 129-148 e-ISSN: 2540-8186; p-ISSN: 2302-8017 DOI: 10.21580/tos.v9i2.7686 THE POSITION OF NAQSHABANDI ORDER IN THE ISLAMIC LAW BY SHAYKH ISLAM WAN SULAIMAN WAN SIDEK (d.1354H/1935M) Muhammad Khairi Mahyuddin Faculty of Leadership and Management Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia [email protected] Abstract: Sufi Order in the Malay World at 19th century is misunderstood as deviant teaching from Islam by some of Malay Muslim society. Reflecting on this, Wan Sulaiman bin Wan Sidek, a shaykh Islam and Malay Sufi scholar at 19th, he played a crucial role in clarifying this issue properly in his Malay Jawi script epistles, namely Fakihah Janiyyah fi Bayan Ma’rifah al-Ilahiyyah al-Mutabaqah Li’ayan al-Shari’ah al-‘Aliyyah and Mizan al-‘uqala wa al-Udaba’. However, some studies from contemporary Malay contested his Sufi's thought, particularly Naqshabandi Order’s position in Islamic law. This study aims to expose Wan Sulaiman’s understanding and justification in Sufis Order, specifically Naqshabandi Order in shariah. This study is a historical and textual analytical study. The finding of this study indicates that Wan Sulaiman’s idea is clear and has strong argumentation from the authentic Sufi sources that show the Sufi Order is legal and has a good position and core teaching in Islamic law. Keywords: Sufi Order, Islamic law, Naqshabandi A. Introduction an Sulaiman b. Wan Sidek (d.1354H/1935M), a 19th century Malay scholar and a practitioner of the Naqshabandi Mujaddidi Ahmadi order from W Kedah, a state in northwest Malaysia, bordering Thailand.

  • The Hikam of Ibn 'Ata'llah Commentary by Ibn 'Ajiba Translated by Aisha Bewley
    The Hikam of Ibn 'Ata'llah Commentary by Ibn 'Ajiba Translated by Aisha Bewley I. A feeling of discouragement when you slip up is a sure sign that you put your faith in deeds. Your desire to withdraw from everything when Allah has involved you in the world of means is a hidden appetite. Your desire for involvement with the world of means when Allah has withdrawn you from it is a fall from high aspiration. Aspiration which rushes on ahead cannot break through the walls of destiny. Give yourself a rest from managing! When Someone Else is doing it for you, don't you start doing it for yourself! Your striving for what is absolutely guaranteed to you and your laxness in what is required of you are evidence that your inner eye is dull. If you make intense supplication and the timing of the answer is delayed, do not despair of it. His reply to you is guaranteed; but in the way He chooses, not the way you choose, and at the moment He desires, not the moment you desire. If something that is promised does not happen even though the time for it is set, do not doubt the promise! If you do, that will dim your inner eye and put out the light of your secret. When He opens a way for you and makes Himself known to you, then do not worry about your lack of deeds. He only opened the way for you because He desired to make Himself known to you. Do you not see that while He grants gnosis of Himself to you, you have only deeds to offer Him? What He brings you - 1 What you bring Him - What a difference there is between them! Different states have different outcomes.
