  • Analysis of M. Natsir's Thoughts on Islamic
    Integral-Universal Education: Analysis of M. Natsir’s Thoughts on Islamic Education Kasmuri Selamat Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Sultan Syarif Kasim, Riau, Indonesia [email protected] Abstract. This paper aimed at exploring M. Natsir's thoughts on Islamic education. Using a qualitative study with a historical approach, the writer found that M. Natsir was a rare figure. He was not only a scholar but also a thinker, a politician, and an educator. As an educator, he not only became a teacher, but also gave birth to various educational concepts known as an integral and universal education concept. He was an architect and an anti-dichotomous thinker of Islamic education. According to Natsir, Islam did not separate spiritual matters from worldly affairs. The spiritual aspect would be the basis of worldliness. The foregoing indicated that religious ethics emphasized by Islamic teachings must be the foundation of life. The conceptual basis of "educational modernism" with tauhid as its foundation demonstrated that he was a figure who really cared about Islamic education. Keywords: Integral-Universal Education, M. Natsir, Thought Introduction Minangkabau, West Sumatra, is one of the areas that cannot be underestimated because there are many great figures on the national and international scales in various fields of expertise from this area, such as scholars, politicians, and other strategic fields. Among these figures are Tuanku Imam Bonjol, Haji Agus Salim, Sutan Sjahrir, Hamka, M. Natsir, and others. Everybody knows these names and their works. These figures lived in the early 20th century when three ideological groups competed with one another to dominate in the struggle for independence.

  • Another Look at the Jakarta Charter Controversy of 1945
    Another Look at the Jakarta Charter Controversy of 1945 R. E. Elson* On the morning of August 18, 1945, three days after the Japanese surrender and just a day after Indonesia's proclamation of independence, Mohammad Hatta, soon to be elected as vice-president of the infant republic, prevailed upon delegates at the first meeting of the Panitia Persiapan Kemerdekaan Indonesia (PPKI, Committee for the Preparation of Indonesian Independence) to adjust key aspects of the republic's draft constitution, notably its preamble. The changes enjoined by Hatta on members of the Preparation Committee, charged with finalizing and promulgating the constitution, were made quickly and with little dispute. Their effect, however, particularly the removal of seven words stipulating that all Muslims should observe Islamic law, was significantly to reduce the proposed formal role of Islam in Indonesian political and social life. Episodically thereafter, the actions of the PPKI that day came to be castigated by some Muslims as catastrophic for Islam in Indonesia—indeed, as an act of treason* 1—and efforts were put in train to restore the seven words to the constitution.2 In retracing the history of the drafting of the Jakarta Charter in June 1945, * This research was supported under the Australian Research Council's Discovery Projects funding scheme. I am grateful for the helpful comments on and assistance with an earlier draft of this article that I received from John Butcher, Ananda B. Kusuma, Gerry van Klinken, Tomoko Aoyama, Akh Muzakki, and especially an anonymous reviewer. 1 Anonymous, "Naskah Proklamasi 17 Agustus 1945: Pengkhianatan Pertama terhadap Piagam Jakarta?," Suara Hidayatullah 13,5 (2000): 13-14.

Berbicara mengenai Agus Salim, maka kita akan berkenalan dengan sosok begawan serba bisa yang menempatkan diri sebagai pionir dalam banyak hal. Agus Salim adalah seorang pemimpin, pejuang, jurnalis, ulama, guru, politisi, negarawan, diplomat, ahli pidato, pujangga, serta seorang pemikir. Sejak kecil, Agus Salim sudah terkenal cerdas luar biasa. Bayangkan saja, ia menjadi lulusan terbaik HBS se-Hindia Belanda. Kecerdasan Agus Salim semasa muda bahkan sudah terkenal di seantero Hindia Belanda. Gaya eksentrik yang melekat pada diri Agus Salim ternyata juga terlihat dalam pola kependidikannya. Agus Salim adalah orang yang pintar dari sisi akademis dan penganut Islam yang taat, namun ia juga seorang moderat yang tidak melihat segala sesuatu dari sudut yang sempit. A. Latar Belakang Kehidupan Haji Agus Salim Haji Agus Salim lahir dengan nama kecil Mashudul Haq (berarti pembela kebenaran) adalah putra dari Sutan Mohammad Salim dan Siti Zainab.

  • Pergolakan Politik Antara Tokoh Muslim Dan Nasionalis Dalam Penentuan Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia
    PERGOLAKAN POLITIK ANTARA TOKOH MUSLIM DAN NASIONALIS DALAM PENENTUAN DASAR NEGARA REPUBLIK INDONESIA Imam Amrusi Jailani Fakultas Syari’ah , UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya Jl. A. Yani 117 Surabaya email: [email protected] Abstrak: Pengkajian yang menggambarkan moment krusial dan bersejarah dalam perjalanan bangsa Indonesia menjelang dan sesaat setelah proklamasi kemerdekaan amatlah urgent. Sudah dimaklumi bahwa terdapat dua faksi yang keduanya saling berkompetisi dalam menentukan dasar Negara Republik ini, yaitu kalangan Muslim, yang berpendirian bahwa dasar Negara dari bangsa Indonesia harus Islam, dan golongan nasionalis “sekuler” yang memandang bahwa Negara Republik Indonesia harus berdasarkan atas kebangsaan, bukan Islam. Memang iakui bahwa mayoritas tim perumus yang tergabung dalam keanggotaan Panitia Persiapan Kemerdekaan Indonesia (PPKI) adalah Muslim, namun pada kenyataannya mereka tidak seia sekata dalam memoosisikan Islam sebagai dasar negara, dan akhirnya dicapai kesepakatan bahwa dasar Negara Republik Indonesia adalah Pancasila. Pencapaian konsesus tersebut merupakan kredit point tersendiri, khususnya mengenai jiwa besar para elit atau tokoh Muslim dengan menerima Pancasila sebagai dasar Negara Republik Indonesia. Bagi mereka, kepentingan bangsa dan Negara berada di atas segala-galanya. Tendensi golongan, apalagi kepentingan pribadi, untuk sejenak dilupakan, demi kepentingan umat dan bangsa.

    Mohammad Natsir (1948) In M e m o r ia m : M o h a m m a d N a t s ir (1907- 1993) George McT. Kahin On February 6,1993 Mohammad Natsir died in Jakarta at the age of 84. Last of the giants among Indonesia's nationalist and revolutionary political leaders, he undoubtedly had more influence on the course of Islamic thought and politics in postwar Indonesia than any of his contemporaries. By nature extraordinarily modest and unpretentious, he had a well deserved reputation for personal integrity and political probity. He always lived sim­ ply with respect to house and attire, even in 1950 as prime minister. (When I first met him in 1948 and he was the Republic's minister of information, I found a man in what was surely the most mended shirt of any official in Yogyakarta; it was his only shirt, and the staff of his office a few weeks later pooled their resources to get him a new one in order, they told me, that their boss would look like "a real minister.") Bom of Minangkabau parents in the West Sumatran town of Alahan Panjang ( some 30 miles south of Solok) on July 17,1908, Natsir grew up in what he remembered to be a very religious area. It was also agriculturally prosperous—in contrast, he recalled, to the impov­ erished nearby Silungkung district which was a center of the Communist uprising of 1927. His father was a clerk in a government office in Alahan Panjang who had graduated from an Indonesian language primary school and did not know Dutch (HIS schools had not yet been established in the area).

Before that, many developing countries have been used micro analytical software, for example aaSIDRA. It seems it is more difficult to use micro simulation software in developing countries due to there are more complex problems compared to developed countries, as the models were developed based on the travel behavior of the country. A study to model and analyze a signalized intersection has been undertaken in Padang, West Sumatra, Indonesia. It used CUBE Dynasim, a relatively new micro simulation software, and aaSIDRA. Throught the application of the two models, it has been found that CUBE Dynasim tends to generate lower approach flows compared to the real data while aaSIDRA generates higher lane capacity than the demand.
