<p>This study discusses the phases that human beings must go through to achieve a noble degree in the sight of God. In Sufism, this topic is known as <em>maqamat</em> and <em>ahwal</em>. <em>Maqamat</em> is the spiritual position, that is, the existence of a person in the way of Allah by trying to practice the deeds to be closer to Allah. While <em>ahwal</em> is a condition or spiritual circumstance within heart bestowed by God because of the intensity of the <em>dhikr</em> (remembering God). To reach the highest level (ma'rifatullah), it can not be reached in a way that is easy and short time. Man must try to empty himself from sin and fill it with good deeds. For only with a holy soul, God gives much of His knowledge. This paper aims to describe and analyze the stages of human spirituality in the book of a classic Sufi figure, Abu Nasr Al-Sarraj. Through inner experience, Sarraj formulated the concept of being close to God. This thought is based on the social conditions of society at that time concerning with material matters rather than spiritual ones. Therefore, the question is how the spiritual phases should be achieved by Al-Sarraj? To answer this question, the researcher uses a qualitative method by examining the text and analyzing it to find the sequences of phases. The result of this research is that Al Sarraj formulates 7 levels of <em>maqam</em> and 9 levels <em>ahwal.</em> Humans who can run the phase are classified into Insan Kamil (perfect human) because there is no distance between him and God.</p>

The study entitled “Direct and Indirect Directive Illocutionary Acts in the Movie Penguin of Madagascar” is aimed at identifying the direct and indirect directive types of illocutionary acts and explaining and analyzing the meaning of the utterances interpreted by the listeners. The data of this study were taken from the movie entitled Penguins of Madagascar, and it was chosen because of many utterances identified as directive of illocutionary acts. The observation and documentation methods were used in collecting the data since the data were obtained from the spoken source in the movie. The data were analyzed using the descriptive qualitative method since the purpose of this study is to analyze the social phenomena like speech acts. The first theory proposef by Bach and Harnish (1979: 47) is used to analyze the type of directive of illocutionary acts.

There are six types of directive of illocutionary act proposed by Bach and Harnish (1979). They are requestives, questions, requirements, permissives, prohibitives and advisories.

I have never been convinced of the Marxian belief that thought is the outcome of social conditions, particularly the modes of production and exchange. It seems to me that the opposite is more nearly true, that the social substance in any given age is primarily defined by its climate of ideas, its philosophical worldview, if you will. The structures of society derive their being as well as their significance from the prevailing philosophy; truth is always a function of a state of consciousness, of the way we view things.

Culture is the values that constitute the unity of life, thought and belief that a society creates in the historical and social development process. These values, which determine the lifestyle of a nation, people and society, have been passed down from generation to generation. The unique life models, art, morality, laws and order of the society determine the culture of that society and shape the daily lives of the people who make up the society. When the social structure and life of different nations are examined, it is noteworthy that the cultures differ significantly and diverge from each other. While human beings adapt to all kinds of changes with the instinct of survival, they consciously or unconsciously keep pace with their social life in order to continue their social life within the changing cultural structure. Fikret Mualla, a Turkish painter, was born in 1903, until his mid-thirties naturally lived and produced works by being influenced by Turkish culture and society. Although he went abroad for a short time many times during this period, he went to Paris in 1939 and lived there for twenty-six years.

The present study is meant to underline the importance of a famous work from the baroque period, Las Meninas, made by the painter Diego de Silva y Velásquez who has become a source of inspiration for future generations of artists. Numerous modern and contemporary artists have integrally or partially ”paraphrased” Velásquez’s composition by intercepting the portrait of revolutionary group for the time when it was created, extremely innovative regarding its compositional qualities and its hidden meanings which underlined the role and status of the artist in the context of a conservative society. Thus, the painting becomes the living proof of the way in which the artist manages to overcome the limitations of the social status of ordinary human beings, by portraying himself as a close friend of the royal family and by opening, through this type of representation, an important chapter in the history of portraiture.

<b>Abstract</b> This text describes the connection between the social sciences and contextual theology. The social sciences investigate the way people relate in society via various institutions and structures, which facilitate relationships in the economic, cultural and political spheres.The social sciences also investigate the way human beings relate to nature for two reasons, namely to defend themselves against the power of nature, and also to enable them to benefit from nature. Systematic theology studies the relationship between God and humanity in light of revelation and faith. Contextual theology investigates to what extent human institutions and structures, interpersonal relationships and the relationship between humanity and nature, become a help or a hindrance to expressing faith in the Lord, and to listening to what is said by God in God’s revelation to humankind. <b>Keywords:</b> Social Sciences, Contextual Theology, Society, People, Institution, Humanity, Relationship, Lord, Structures. <b>Abstrak:</b> Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan hubungan antara ilmu-ilmu sosial dan teologi kontekstual. Ilmu-ilmu sosial menyelidiki hubungan manusia dengan manusia dalam masyarakat melalui berbagai institusi dan struktur yang memungkinkan dan memudahkan hubungan itu dalam ekonomi, kebudayaan, dan politik. Ilmu-ilmu sosial juga meneliti hubungan manusia dengan alam dalam kaitannya dengan dua tujuan, yaitu mempertahankan diri terhadap kekuatan alam, dan memanfaatkan alam untuk keperluan hidupnya. Di sini teknologi dan ekonomi memainkan peranan yang menentukan. Teologi sistematik meneliti berbagai aspek relasi Tuhan dengan manusia melalui wahyu serta relasi manusia dengan Tuhan melalui iman. Teologi kontekstual meneliti sejauh mana institusi dan struktur yang dibangun manusia, baik dalam relasi antar-manusia maupun dalam relasi manusia dan alam, menjadi fasilitas atau hambatan baginya dalam menyatakan iman kepada Tuhan, dan dalam mendengarkan apa yang disampaikan Tuhan dalam wahyu-Nya kepada manusia. <b>Kata kunci:</b> Ilmu Sosial, Teologi Kontekstual, Masyarakat, Manusia, Institusi, Kemanusiaan, Hubungan, Tuhan, Struktur

Durkheim dismissed “intention” and “motives” from his conceptual framework in his effort to analyze suicide as a social fact He also rejected psychopathic states, heredity, and other “extra-social” factors as possible causes of suicide on the basis of statistical information available to him. This paper examines the way in which Durkheim worked out his position on the social conditions he regarded as responsible for suicide, and discusses some of the major problems involved. It is argued that Durkheim did not achieve the consistent position for which he strived, and that his methods did not always parallel his views on the use of “intention.”
