Communication is an important element in human life. Every human being will communicate either verbally or non-verbally. However, some in society today ignore the principles that need to be adhered to during communication. They are speechless and free to speak to cause libel and dissemination of untrue information from the original facts. As the Ministry of Communications and Multimedia Malaysia has warned, 'no doubt don't share'. Based on this statement, an analysis of the principles of communication in the Quran should be done to express Allah's command in the ethics of communicating especially to Muslims. The findings showed that there are 19 communication patterns found in the Quran and the reviewers have classified the principles of communication into two main forms which are bi al-Lisan communication and communication bi al-Hal. Based on the principles of communication in life, it is certain that society will live in peace and harmony in accordance with the will of God.

Will Of God

Duality is one reality (God One), in this universe consisting of only two common types, God and not God; The Creator and the Creature. The first type has only one member namely Allah SWT. He alone is the eternal God, the transcendent Creator. There is nothing similar to Him, while the second is the composition of God's created being made up of nature and all its contents, the first impossible, but the second extinction, the extinction of nature and of life. Ideality is a natural power that synergizes with the power of human understanding and belief. Understanding is used to understand the will of God through observation and on the basis of creation, the will of the ruler who must be actualized in space and time, participate in world activities and create desired change. Understanding the application of recognition of knowledge of truth as a principle of knowledge. Tawheed is the recognition that God is, is and is One. The recognition that the truth can be known and man is able to achieve it, through the process of learning (understanding). This study focuses on natural studies and conceptions in interpreting Islamic ecology among students and students in Indonesia, and emphasizes the need to be serious. The concept of Islamic ecology is an insistence on science, to be preserved and developed. Practically its presence along with Islamic doctrine brought by Muhammad Saw. Slowly but surely, all aspects of human life, can not be separated from the process of improvement and refinement. Both with regard to simple things such as the purification of self from impurities (unclean), to matters concerning environmental sanctification, even corpses (dead). This paper describes, there is no problem that is beneficial to human beings, unless all the problems are related even in accordance with the teachings of Islam, but sometimes this issue is not a concern by all mankind, even consider it trivial. Considering Islam only regulates ubudiyah problems ranging from praying, fasting zakat, alms and pilgrimage. This can be seen from the lack of awareness in disposing of waste in its place. Or the lack of awareness of hygiene and consistent in maintaining the environment. The effort of learning by prioritizing the values of environmental virtue is very necessary to be done early, start learning at Kindergarten level, up to college. This form of business is not only limited to habituation, but more than that, in the form of awareness and love that is formed in the minds of every Muslim, because the love of nature, is a form of love to Allah SWT.

Divine Punishment

Human life has always been dealt with various disasters from earthquake,  tsunami to volcano eruption. In the past, as listed in the Qur’an, a lot of stories depicted the vanished people of unbeliever. While the cases of unbeliever referred to the punishment of Alloh, the query is whether the disaster happened to the Believer served as the Divine punishment. Two questions are discussed in this research: (1) How Quraish Shihab interpreted the verses of disaster?, and (2) What is the theology of disaster in Quraish Shihab’s Tafsir al-Misbah? The research shows that natural disaster occurred, in Quraish Shihab’s view, due to the imbalance of environment. Alloh has created harmonious environment, but human being tends to conduct chaos and destruction. Disaster could be concluded into three: (1) disaster that denoted collective destruction, (2) disaster that related to the destruction of meaning, and (3), disaster that dealt with the danger. The cause of disaster could be categorized into three, namely, (1) disaster due to the will of God (2) disaster due to human error (3) disaster due to the wickedness of human. Pertaining to the ethics facing disaster, one couldrefer to istirja’, patience, learning, the obedience to Alloh. The lesson learned from the disaster are among others, (1) individual aspect : (a) increasing the degree of faith, (b) supporting one’s proximity to God, (c) realizing the love of God, (d) situating one’s faith and (e) supporting one’s humility and (2) social one, building solidarity among human beings.

Mystic of Persia Molana Jalal ul Din Muhammad Roomi Balkhi has been considered as the poet of Humanity and love.Many teachings of Rumi are borrowed from the Quran, directly or indirectly. Quran is a guideline for every aspect of human life and for every human being.The major theme of the Quran is ‘A Perfect Man’ or ‘Insan-e-kamil’ and Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) is the prototype for it. In his books Rumi divided the mankind in three levels, low or imperfect , average and perfect.Teachings of Rumi guides a man gradually from the lowest stage to the highest where he is finally submerged in the ocean of divine attributes. It is at this stage that a man becomes perfect, and understands the will of God. Here God loves the man and the man is pleased with God. The present study aims to find links between the teachings of the Quran and Rumi’s works with respect to the accession of man from the imperfect one to the perfenct one.

Will Of God

This article tries to problematize the mainstream academic perspectives about fatalistic orientation and predetermined will of mankind attributed to the thoughts of Abu al-Hasan al-Asy’ari, founder of theological school in Islam named after his name. Benefited from phenomenological approach it proves that Ash’ari has conceptualized that mankind is free creature represented by his/her will as it is related to the will of God. This article argues that Ash’ari’s assertion that humankind has freedom is based on the fact that he/she has ability to feel the presence of the will in his/her consciousness as something belongs to him/her. Departing from the logic of Arabic linguistics, freedom is defined as free will found in human being regardless of whether it is created by mankind or by God. Knowing that human will is created by God theologically doesn’t mean that the will is predetermined in the state of consciousness due to the fact that al-Qur’an states that God has created a feeling of freedom for human being to feel free not to feel being determined. Since the conception of being is elucidated linguistically by Ash’ari as being found by finder, this projection has firmly been compatible with projection of phenomenological consciousness. This article ends with conclusion that the feeling of will in the sense of consciousness of it manifests human freedom without neglecting the will of God. This relation of two wills has enabled human being to be aware of his/her freedom and God’s one as unseparated dualism in human religious experience. [Artikel ini mencoba untuk melakukan problematisasi atas pandangan para sarjana mainsntream dalam diskursus teologi yang menyatakan bahwa pemikiran Abu al-Hasan al-Asy’ari, pendiri mazhab Asy’ariah, adalah fatalistik. Lebih lanjut, artikel ini ingin membuktikan bahwa pemikiran Asy’ari mempunyai perhatian yang besar terhadap kebebasan manusia yang direpresentasikan oleh adanya kehendak manusia yang berelasi dengan kehendak Tuhan dengan pendekatan fenomenologis. Artikel ini menjelaskan bahwa Asy’ari menegaskan kebebasan manusia dengan argumentasi bahwa ia mempunyai kehendak yang hadir dalam kesadarannya dan dinisbatkan kepadanya; orang yang berkehendak adalah orang yang mempunyai kehendak tanpa melihat siapa yang mewujudkan kehendak tersebut. Meskipun Tuhan menciptakan kehendak untuk manusia, tapi secara sadar kehendak itu dinisbatkan manusia. Pandangan Asy’ari tentang kehendak dan kebebasan manusia didasarkan pada logika Bahasa Arab dengan menyatakan bahwa eksistensi adalah wujud yang ditemu oleh manusia yang menemukan, mempunyai kesesuaian dengan fenomenologi yang menyatakan bahwa eksistensi adalah relasi kesadaran manusia terhadap wujud. Dalam konteks ini, kehendak merupakan bukti yang paling kuat atas eksistensi manusia yang bebas. Artikel ini berkesimpulan bahwa dalam pandangan Asy’ari manusia adalah makhluk yang bebas melalui kehendaknya tanpa harus mengkorbankan kehendak Tuhan. Lebih lanjut kehendak manusia dan Tuhan merupakan dualisme kesadaran eksistensialisme yang tak bisa dipisahkan dalam pengalaman kemanusiaan religius.]

The Relationship

The relationship between one human being and another in fulfilling needs (min min al-Nas), there must be a rule that explains both rights and obligations based on agreement (contract). Humans are never separated from the contract (contract / agreement) in their lives. A contract is a bond of consent (statement of acceptance of a bond) and Kabul (statement of acceptance of a bond) in accordance with the will of the Shari'a which affects the object of engagement (contract). Because of the importance of the contract in human life, of course every thing has wisdom, then what is the nature of wisdom and how are the wisdom of the contract in Islamic economics. The essence of wisdom is an expression that refers to a solid knowledge, which includes (can lead to) makrîfah (recognition) to Allah, which comes from the pure inner eye, and the ability of the knowledge to learn and understand the nature of things in their objective state the realm of reality is limited to the supreme ability of humans in finding and discovering the secrets of the shari'a religion (law) and the purpose of Islamic law. While the wisdom of the contracts in Islamic economics are: 1). Moral and material accountability of both parties emerged; 2). The emergence of a sense of tranquility and satisfaction from both parties; 3). Avoidance of disputes from both parties; 4). Avoid legitimate ownership of property; 5). Ownership status of property becomes clear; 6). There is a strong bond between two or more people in transacting or having something; 7) It cannot be arbitrary in canceling an agreement, because it has been set in shar'i; 8). A contract is a "legal umbrella" in possession of something, so that the other party cannot sue or have it. In simple terms the wisdom of the Covenant is an attempt to uncover the truth, practice the truth and fight lust from all forms of evil and realize benefit and reject damage in the muamalah contract of Islamic economics.

Julian N. Hartt once observed that Calvin so accentuates divine causation that he denies all secondary agency. A strong statement of God's omnipotence commits Calvin to the position that divine causation is the only connection that has any foundation in reality. And this claim, Hartt noted, places Calvin dangerously close to Spinozism. I have no stake (nor does Hartt) in any analysis that attempts to indicate affinities between Calvin and the Dutch rationalist whom he predates by several generations. But, as Hartt suggested and as I will demonstrate, a persuasive case can be made for Calvin's commitment to a thoroughgoing causal determinism that has God at the helm directing every event. Now one should note at the outset that Calvin has solid theological reasons for stressing the role of God's all-determining will in the course of events. As a Reformation theologian, he is a persistent defender of the utter gratuitousness of grace, thereby denying that the moral, spiritual, and epistemological chasm separating the human and the divine can in any way be reconciled by human being. Yet, for Calvin, grace possesses an omnicompetence – even faith is the gift of grace – which, when examined within the total context of his thought, reveals the radical dependence of the entire created order upon the will of God.

This paper attempts to analyze the development of integrative science at two Islamic universities, namely UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta and UIN Malang. The changes are not just ordinary administrative changes, but based on the epistemological basis of integrated scientific development between science and Islam. The changing of IAIN Sunan Kalijaga and STAIN Malang also showed a new relationship between science (general sciences) and Islam, which requiresmutual relations, mutual dialogue, mutual reinforcement to solve the problems of postmodern human life. The purpose of this relation is to create the graduates who are capable of competing in the postmodern world that increasingly sophisticated and advanced science and technology, in addition, the value of religionbased morality is not abandoned, so they become the holistic human being. Tulisan ini mencoba menganalisis pengembangan keilmuan integratif pada dua universitas Islam negeri, yaitu UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta dan UIN Malang. Perubahan keduanya bukanlah hanya perubahan administrasi biasa, tapi didasari oleh basis epistemologi pengembangan keilmuan terintegrasi antara sains dan Islam. Perubahan IAIN Sunan Kalijaga dan STAIN Malang juga menunjukkan adanya relasi baru antara sains (ilmu-ilmu umum) dan Islam, yaitu relasi saling membutuhkan, saling berdialog, saling menguatkan untuk menyelesaikan problema kehidupan manusia postmodern ini. Tujuan relasi ini untuk mewujudkan lulusan yang mampu bersaing di dunia postmodern yang semakin canggih dan maju ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologinya, selain itu nilai moralitas yang berbasis agama tidak ditinggalkan, sehingga menjadi manusia yang utuh.

The Impact

The article examines the impact of digitalization on human life and intellectual experience. The development of computer technology demands an understanding of new aspects of human development and requires a capability to overcome not only external conditions but also ourselves. Entering a new level of development cannot imply a complete rejection of previous dispositions, but should be accompanied by reflection on personal experience and by the quest for new forms of interaction in society and with nature. Communicative and cognitive activity of a person has an ontological basis and relies on processes that actually evolve in nature. Therefore, the creation of new objects is always associated with the properties of natural material and gives rise to new points of support in the development of man. The more audacious his projects, the more important it is to preserve this connection to nature. It is always the human being who turns out to be the initiator who knows how to solve problems. The conformity of complex technical systems to nature is not only a goal but also a value of meaningful construction of development perspectives. The key to the nature orientation of the modern digital world is the human being himself, who keeps all the secrets of the culture of his natural development. Therefore, the proposed by the Russian philosopher V.S. Stepin post-non-classical approach, based on the principle of “human-sizedness,” is an important contribution to contemporary research because it draws attention to the “human – machine” communication, to the relationship between a person and technological systems he created. The article concludes that during digital transformation, a cultural conflict arises: in an effort to solve the problems of the future, a person equips his life with devices that are designed to support him, to expand his functionality, but at the same time, the boundaries of humanity become dissolved and the forms of human activity undergo simplification. Transhumanism engages society in the fight against fears of vulnerability and memory loss and ignores the flexibility and sustainability of natural foundation.

AbstractWilliam Golding, in The Spire, invites us to ask how we may know the will of God, and suggests that what we take to be the will of God is often simply the projection onto history of the disguised image of our private and self-absorbed desires. Though contemporary critics tend to interpret the novel as a sympathetic exploration of moral ambiguity rather than as a compelling condemnation of Jocelin's mortifying and death-dealing sin, the novel turns on the contrast between the drive toward dominion and the capacity for assent. The final salvific discovery, given form in Jocelin's mind by the experience of the apple tree and the kingfisher, is the overthrow of the will, its panicked drowning, in terrified apprehension of implacable glory and squandered gifts.

For centuries a mystery has surrounded the meaning of Jesus' term “The Son of Man” in his ministry, and today it is often called “The Son of Man Problem.” Studying “Son of Man” in all of its biblical references, and apocryphal usages, together with insights from the Dead Sea Scrolls, I propose a solution that the idiom means “Priest” or “High Priest,” but most especially “Heavenly High Priest” and is framed in the third person by Jesus because it is expressed as his destiny given by God—it is the Will of God. “The Son of Man” is distinct from Jesus own will, but is the destiny he follows. It is also the use of this term that caused Caiaphas to cry “blasphemy” at Jesus' Sanhedrin trial, who then sent him to Pilate for crucifixion, yet asserting that Jesus proclaimed himself “King of the Jews.” Caiaphas, knew, I believe, that “Son of Man” was synonymous with “High Priest.”
