Riddah originally from the Arabic language Al-Riddah means apostasy while in Malaysia it is commonly referred to as murtad. Riddah is part of the hudud offences whereby the punishments are clearly spelt out by Al-Quran and Hadith which cannot be added and deducted, or altered because it has been determined by Allah. For riddah, most of the Islamists jurists hold on to ahad hadith (a single hadith) which is still disputed as a basis of law but most of them agreed that only when an apostate act against Islam then he or she must be killed. In the practical aspect, application of Islamic law in Malaysia is predominantly derived from statute and even for the riddah punishment the Syariah Court can only impose a punishment not more than 3 years of imprisonment, fine not more than RM5,000 and whipping not more than 6 strokes which is in stark contrast with the punishment agreed upon by Islamists jurists. Apart from this sentencing power, other issues surrounding riddah will be discussed in depth in this article with the aim to find the best practise which is acceptable for the whole of Malaysia.

The topic of metamemory had attracted the attention of many researchers and scholars in the field of educational and cognitive psychology, especially how individuals become aware of and control their memory functions. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to build a psychometric scale/questionnaire for measuring metamemory. The study was conducted among a sample of 200 students joining Sharia/Islamic Law, Arabic Language, Education, English Language, Science, Economics and Management at Al Qassim University. For the purpose of the content validity of the scale, it was verified by the raters’ agreement and the internal consistency of the items of the scale. Pearson correlation coefficient was also used to calculate correlation coefficients between the scores of each item and its dimension to ensure consistency and homogeneity of the items and dimensions of the scale. The correlation coefficients of the items of the scale and the total score of the dimension to which the items belong were all positive correlation coefficients and statistically significant at the level of 0.01, which confirms the consistency and homogeneity of the items of each dimension. The homogeneity of the dimensions of the scale was also verified by calculating Pearson correlation coefficients between the score of each dimension and the overall score of the scale. The reliability of the scale and its sub- dimensions was verified using the α- Cronbach Alpha coefficient. The results showed that the scale and its sub- dimensions had high and statistically acceptable validity and reliability coefficients. Such result indicates that the scale is statistically valid and reliable.

Theoretical Foundations

In this article, I explore the Arabic concept of jamʿ, and relate it to the Deleuzian concept of assemblage. I argue that jamʿ is central in the formation of Arabic language, Islamic theology, Islamic law, Sufism, a number of modern Islamic discourses, such as wasaṭiyyah, and several social,economic, and political formations in Arab modern states. I will limit my scope in this article to establishing the theoretical foundations of jamʿ and studying its effect on the formation of language. After defining jamʿetymologically, I will present a brief discussion of assemblage, as presented in Deleuze and Guattari, and then will divide the rest of the article into three parts, where I will discuss, first, the concept of naẓm as a type of jamʿ that aims to articulate meaning, second, the effect of jamʿ on the formation of the metaphor, and, third, the theological and philosophical foundations of jamʿ in the Deleuzian understanding of virtuality, and the Bergsonian understanding of time.

The result of this research shows that the form of foreign language usage in this text is Arabic. There are three sentence’s pattern in the text, such as: imperative, exclamatory and declarative. The purpose of using imperative sentence pattern is likely to show request, attitude and principle; additionally, the aim of using exclamatory is to express strong emotions. On the other hand, declarative sentence is used to convey information or make statements and ask the audience would like to change the way of thinking from common law to Islamic law. The style of language and the use of sentences in the text of da'wah is oriented to the concept of Islamic shari'ah according to Aman viewpoint. There are several factors that cause language choice, namely: (1) the background of the subject, (2) the background of the place, (3) the need for synonyms, (4)   the speaker's bilingualism.---Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan bentuk-bentuk pemakaian bahasa Indonesa-Arab, pola, dan faktor penyebab pemakaian bahasa itu pada wacana dakwah Abu Sulaiman Aman Abdurrahman.

This is showed by the increase of the number of the established Sharia bank in Indonesia. However, in their practice, these Sharia banks are not in accordance with Islamic law. They plagiarize usury principles from conventional bank and just translate it to Arabic language e.g. Sharia savings and Akad Wadiah.In principle, the foundation of this product is correct according to Fiqh due to its Wadiah base. However, in their implementation, Sharia bank may applies Wadiah Yad Dhamanah principle; whereas, Akad Wadiah Yad Dhamanah by name can’t be found in the classical Fiqh literature, and if this principle is further analyzed, two contradicting Akads which are forcibly combined will be found, i.e. Akad Wadiah and Akad Qard.This research is field research, where the researcher involved directly in the field or research object i.e. Bank Syariah Mandiri, Lamongan branch. The data is collected by observing and interviewing the management and the employee of Bank Syariah Mandiri, Lamongan branch, thus the collected data is the core of the research object which then analyzed using Qualitative Research method. The result shows that the application of Akad Wadiah in Bank Syariah Mandiri, Lamongan branch is using Wadiah Yad Dhamanah principle, which is not in accordance with the Sharia Economic Law. Keywords: implementation, Wadiah, Sharia Economic Law.

Language And Law

Language and law seem to have either distant or no connection at all. However, in reality these two disciplines are closely interconnected and interrelated, particularly in the perspectives of Islamic legal theory. One’s language competence is among the determining factors in comprehending Islamic law. This is because in Islamic legal theory, law is derived from the tenets enshrined in the Qur’an and the Prophetic traditions that require a high standard of Arabic language science. Thus, it can be concluded that language and law are inseparable. Unfortunately, many students majoring Islamic law still have minor knowledge as well as awareness of the connection between these two disciplines. Regarding this case in hand, the aims of this study are two fold; first, to find out students’ awareness of the role of language competence in Islamic legal theory, and second, to investigate the correlation between the awareness with students’ competence in Islamic legal theory. This study conducted at the postgraduate program, UIN SU employed a qualitative approach. The data were collected by using questionnaire and in-depth interview. The findings reveal that students’ awareness of the significance of language competence is still relatively low. Furthermore, it is also found that the awareness is positively correlated with their competence in Islamic legal theory.

Abstract Specialists in Islamic studies have taken virtually no interest in the influential and rapidly developing field of Cognitive Science of Religion (CSR). The present article seeks to address this problem by considering how insights from CSR can be systematically applied to reconceptualize Islamic theology, law, education, and mysticism. The article centers on what is probably CSR’s most influential and well-established idea; namely, that religion is closely linked to an evolved “mindreading” ability (i.e., a “Theory of Mind Module”). It is argued that Islamic theology employs mindreading focused on events and objects in the universe, Islamic law and education employ mindreading focused on scriptural texts and embodied practices, and Islamic mysticism employs mindreading focused on psychological experiences. The article develops these ideas through an analysis of the Arabic-language writings of Abū Ḥāmid al-Ghazālī, the famous medieval Islamic theologian, jurist, and mystic.
