<p>Abstrak: Andalusia merupakan satu bab yang sangat menarik dalam sejarah Islam, karena hentakan awalnya, tetapi juga karena ketragisan akhirnya. Tulisan ini memusatkan perhatian pada pembahasan mengenai interaksi yang terjadi antara orang Islam sebagai bangsa penakluk di satu sisi dan bangsa lokal Andalusia sebagai bangsa tertakluk di sisi lain. Kenyataan ini terkadang menimbulkan penafsiran yang hitam putih dan serba revolusioner terhadap pola hubungan dan saling pengaruh antara Muslim dan penduduk asli Andalusia dalam hal agama dan bahasa. Artikel ini mengargumentasikan bahwa, sebagaimana di tempat lain, pengaruh religius dan linguistik merupakan aspek kehidupan yang lebih substantif dan mendasar bagi sebuah masyarakat bila dibandingkan dengan aspek politik dan militer dan hal ini memerlukan proses interaksi yang intens untuk terjadi di Andalusia. Artikel ini menelusuri tahapan-tahapan interaksi tersebut dan menggarisbawahi faktor- faktor terpenting yang terlibat di dalamnya.</p><p><br />Abstract: Al-Andalus (Islamic Spain): A History of Religious and Linguistic Interaction. Islamic Spain is a chapter of Islamic history that has alway been very interesting, not only because of its shocking beginning but also because of its tragic end. The main thrust of this essay is focused on discussing the interaction between the Muslim peoples as conqueror on one side and the lokcal Andalusians as the conquered on the other. This fact often results in a black-and-white revolutionary interpretation of the relations between the conquering Arab Muslims and the conquerred Latin Christians. This article argues that, as in anywhere else in the Muslim world, religious and linguistic influence is the most substantive and fundamental aspects of social life compared to political and military aspects and such to occur in the Arab Muslims upon the locals of al-Andalus requires a long intensive interaction. The most relevant factors of the process are explained in this article.</p><p><br />Kata Kunci: Andalusia, Islamisasi, Arabisasi, Reconquista</p>

Tarikh al-Umam wa al-Muluk (history of nations and kings) by Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabiiri, is by common consent the most important universal history produced in the world of Islam. This monumental work explores the history of the ancient nations, the prophets, the rise of Islam and the history of  the Islamic World down to the year 302 A.H./915 AD. His work, chronicled the History of Islam year by year; an attempt to categorize history from creation till the year 302 A.H/915 A.D. By the time he had finished his work, he had gathered all the historical traditions of the Arabs in his voluminous work. The Muslim world was not slow in showing its appreciation, and this work became famous as Islamic Traditional Historiography. However, much to criticize by western scholars (orientalist or lslamicist) sphere in writting   style  of Thabari  work not systematically and interp retatively. In fact, no discovered logical argumen and rational parallel with historical ideas manifesting. The impact of uncommon muslim scholars to become a reference for Islamic historical Studies. A central theme of this paper will be invate of Muslim intellectuals/scholars to be Tarikh Thabari as prominent reference in the Islamic historical studies. Moreover, I will argue that Tarikh al-Umam wa al-muluk by al-Tabari is the most important reference on Islamic history than the other references.

When we look at the great diversity of man’s activities and interests, it is evident how much space they afford for reviewing his history in many different ways. To most of our historians the view of the political power and course of legislation has seemed all that need be noticed; others have dealt with history in religion, or the growth of mind in changes of moral standards, as in Lecky’s fine work. In recent years the history of knowledge in medicine, in the applied sciences, and in abstract mathematics, has been profitably studied, as affording the basis of civilization. The purely mental view is shown in the social life and customs of each age, and expressed in the growth of Art. This last expression of man’s spirit has great advantages in its presentation; the material from different ages is of a comparable nature, and it is easily placed together to contrast its differences. Moreover it covers a wider range of time than we can et observe in man’s scope, but it is as essential to his nature as any of the other aspects that we have named.

In antiquity and in the Middle Ages slavery played a significant role in the military, economic, political and social life of the Near East. Many studies have been made of these aspects of life, but little has been said in the context of Islam about the psychological bonds which, at least to some extent, characterize the relationship between slave or freedman and master. The institution of ‘mutual alliance’ also played an important part in Islamic history, and there were certain similarities between the relation of the ‘ally’ to the patron on the one hand, and of the freedman to the former master on the other. But it is the purpose of this discussion, in part, to point out some basic differences between the two relationships.

This essay studies Afro-Asian sociocultural interactions in cultural production by or about Asian Latin Americans, with an emphasis on Cuba and Brazil. Among the recurrent characters are the black slave, the china mulata, or the black ally who expresses sympathy or even marries the Asian character. This reflects a common history of bondage shared by black slaves, Chinese coolies, and Japanese indentured workers, as well as a common history of marronage. These conflicts and alliances between Asians and blacks contest the official discourse of mestizaje (Spanish-indigenous dichotomies in Mexico and Andean countries, for example, or black and white binaries in Brazil and the Caribbean), which, under the guise of incorporating the Other, favored whiteness, all the while attempting to silence, ignore, or ultimately erase their worldviews and cultures.

The technological history of the building of the Welland ship canal (1913-1932) is well recorded with photographs, documents, maps and plans in various archives. On the other hand, the social history of this saga is harder for the reader to discover because the engineers, contractors, and labourers have left little trace of their experiences “on the ground.” Fortunately, a diary kept by the engineer in charge, Alexander J. Grant, has come to life. Covering the longest period of construction, it chronicles the day-to-day problems of a hard-working, intelligent professional -- but also offers glimpses into the emotional and social life of the man. It will be a valuable source for a future biographer of this remarkable engineer.

Praise be to Allah, Lord of the world. The beneficent, the merciful, the owner of the day of judgment and there is no God, but he, the most gracious and merciful. This article urges on the methodologies of Ibni-Jareer Al-tabari and Almasudi and their conceptual frameworks based on their ideologies and beliefs. Ibni-Jareer Al-tabari and Almasudi are the most prominent historians of Islamic history because their narrations and publications are considered to be the main sources of Islamic history. The study of the conceptual framework and methodologies of both scholars are of uttermost importance because both have published the Islamic history in the early ages, but both have different ideologies; Ibni-Jareer Al-tabari is a Sunni scholar and has vast knowledge about Quranic sciences and followed the strict rules of Hadith narrations in reporting historical events, he used narrative methodology for registering events before Islam and has reported events after Islam in chronological order year after year. On the other hand, Almasudi is considered to be the first Muslim scholar to combine history and scientific geography in his large-scale work named “Murūj al-dhahab wa maʿādin al-jawāhir” (The Meadows of Gold and Mines of Gems), but the conceptual framework of Almasudi is different from Ibni-Jareer Al-tabari, according to different scholars he was Mu’tazili more than a Sunni Muslim. Therefore, it was necessary to clarify the conceptual framework and the methodologies of both prominent historians of the Muslim world.

The history of Muslim Education reveals that there was no difference of materialistic and religious education in the past. However, for the last two centuries, Muslim world divided into many ideologies which consequently produced separate educational institutions for every ideology. In the secular/modern educational institutions, religious and metaphysical studies are missing while, on the other hand, religious seminaries focus on the pure religious education. In such a situation, two kinds of students are graduating from our educational institutions which do not have congruence in practical life with each other. Present Muslim world in dire need of a comprehensive educational system combining the modern secular and religious subjects in an appropriate manner. Currently, if Islamic world is distressed technologically at one hand, it is divided in many sects, on the other. Therefore, acquisition of scientific and religious,both kinds of education are required for Muslims. In the present paper, the responsibilities of Muslim world are discussed to face the current and future challenges from educational perspective in order to portray a true picture of Islam and its followers.

Pakistan occupies an uncertain and paradoxical space in debates about secularism. On the one hand, the academic consensus (if there is any), traces a problematic history of secularism in Pakistan to its founding Muslim nationalist ideology, which purportedly predisposed the country towards the contemporary dominance of religion in social and political discourse. For some, the reconciliation of secularism with religious nationalism has been a doomed project; a country founded on religious nationalism could, in this view, offer no future other than its present of Talibans, Drone attacks and Islamist threats. But on the other hand, Pakistan has also been repeatedly held out as a critical site for the redemptive power of secularism in the Muslim world. The idea that religious nationalism and secularism could combine to provide a path for the creation of a specifically Muslim state on the Indian subcontinent is often traced to the rhetoric of Pakistan's founder, Muhammad Ali Jinnah. But debate among Muslim League leaders specifically on the relationship of religious nationalism with secularism—and indeed on the nature of the Pakistani state itself—was limited in the years before partition in 1947. Nevertheless, using aspects of Jinnah's rhetoric and holding out the promise of secularism's redemptive power, a military dictator, Pervez Musharraf, was able to secure international legitimacy and support for almost a decade.

God grant to the great potential of human reason as an instrument <br />for thinking. And the reason humans can develop a philosophical exploration. The philosophical exploration can build by creating dialogue and collaborations between science, philosophy, logic and language. Civilization as composite from spirit and attitude and ways of social life can’t separate from philosophy in forming of good society’s behavior. In the other hand, language, science and technology are also having important roles in civilization. The results of science are impossible to understand with societies if never communicate by language. Therefore, with the achievement of those aspects and discoveries of human philosophy can build a civilization throughout historical from time to time. Thus, in the history of human civilization, science, philosophy, logic and language have their respective roles that sometimes require the dialogue and or cooperation between the fourth in a valuable form of civilization in the history of life.

It is obvious to all readers of world history that on one hand Europe divided the Muslim world into parts to dominate over the Muslims and strengthen their political hold and on the other hand, they introduced literature in the form of knowledge and research to induce ambiguity and distrust in their minds about Islāmic teachings so that the Muslims may dishearten from their religious values as the European catholic faced to. To achieve these targets European orientalists presented Islāmic history, defense, and argumentation in a baseless and ambiguous form. The eastern followers follow them blindly in eagerness for modernism. In this business who played a vital role is a prolonged story. In this connection, one convention is meaning dependent about which some people think one cannot say with surety that even appreciable Ḥadīth narrations pertaining to the prophet (SAW) are certain. They think those Ḥadīths which directly pertain to Nabī  (SAW) and know to us are mostly narrated not wordily but meaningly. Perhaps we consider the prophet saying may not be real which means that with the passage of time those Ḥadīths may be interrupted to some extent.
