Bahasa Arab Tujuan Khas atau Arabic for Specific Purposes (ASP) merupakan cabang Disiplin Linguistik Fungsian yang fokus kepada bidang praktikal mengikut keperluan (needs), seperti: Bahasa Arab untuk Perbankan, Bahasa Arab untuk Diplomat, Bahasa Arab untuk Teknologi, Bahasa Arab untuk Ulum Islamiyyah dan lain-lain. Ulum Islamiyyah adalah disiplin ilmu yang bersumberkan alquran dan alhadith seumpama Syariah Islam, Usuluddin, pengajian al-Quran dan As Sunnah dan lain-lain. Bahasa Arab dan Ulum Islamiyyah adalah dua frasa nama yang mempunyai perkaitan yang jelas. Sarjana-sarjana Islam awal telah membahaskan dan menerangkan disiplin ulum Islamiyyah dalam buku turath dengan medium Bahasa Arab. Keperluan terhadap Bahasa Arab untuk Ulum Islamiyyah harus diberi perhatian agar objektif pembelajaran dapat dicapai dan dapat membantu pelajar untuk memahami kosa kata, istilah dan frasa nama yang khas di dalam disiplin yang dipelajari. Melalui tinjauan penyelidik didapati ramai pelajar menghadapi masalah pemahaman bahasa yang terdapat dalam manhaj penyampaian penulis asal dalam buku turath bagi setiap disiplin Ulum Islamiyyah. Masalah yang jelas dilihat apabila pelajar sukar untuk membaca dengan betul, memahami dan mengeluarkan hukum dari buku-buku turath tersebut. Pelajar juga tidak mampu untuk berdiskusi dan berhujah dalam disiplin Ulum Islamiyyah. Kajian campuran metodologi ini adalah kajian lapangan yang menggunakan instrumen temu ramah terhadap 10 pensyarah yang mengajar kursus Ulum Islamiyyah untuk mendapatkan data “keperluan” (Needs). Hasil kajian ini dapat dirumuskan bahawa Bahasa Arab untuk khusus Ulum Islamiyyah wajib ditawarkan kepada pelajar prasiswazah sebagai satu kursus di peringkat universiti. Arabic for Specific Purposes (ASP) is a branch of Functional Linguistic Disciplines focused on practical areas of language used, such as: Arabic for Banking, Arabic for Diplomats, Arabic for Technology, Arabic for Islamic Studies and so on. Ulum Islamiyyah is a discipline of knowledge that the Quran and al hadith are primary references for instance, Shariah studies, Usuluddin, Quranic and As Sunnah studies and others. Yet, Arabic Language and Ulum Islamiyyah are two terms which clearly related. Early Islamic scholars have discussed and explained the Islamic discipline in their turath books in Arabic. The needs of Arabic for Ulum Islamiyyah should be emphasized in order to achieve the learning objectives and to help students understand the specific vocabulary, terms and phrases in the subjects learnt. Through the survey done, the researcher found that many students faced the difficulties in reading, understanding and verify the Islamic rules from the original texts in the turath reference books. As consequences, the students are not able to discuss the Islamic issues in a broad view. This study used mixed methodology to get the data of needs by interviewing 10 lecturers who are teaching Ulum Islamiyyah courses. The results of this study can be concluded that the Arabic language for Ulum Islamiyyah must be offered to undergraduate students as a subject at the university.

The tradition of Middle Eastern studies in Finland is long but rather thin. The chair for Oriental Languages (mainly Hebrew and Aramaic) was established at Turku University in 1640, changing its name (Linguarum Orientalium Professio) several times over the years before becoming Semitic Languages. After the great fire destroyed almost the whole city of Turku, the university was relocated to Helsinki in 1828. In the mid-19th century, the chair was held by G.A. Wallin (d. 1852), an explorer of the Arabian Peninsula (and a visitor to the holy city of Mecca) and one of the first scholars, worldwide, to study Arabic dialects. In the latter part of the 19th century, Assyriology became the most flourishing field of Middle Eastern Studies in Finland, several great Assyriologists, such as Knut Tallqvist (d. 1949), holding the chair of Oriental Languages. Though concentrating on Assyriology, Assyriologists also kept alive Arabic philological studies, which gained additional weight in the 1960s when the Assyriologist and Comparative Semitist Jussi Aro (d. 1983) was appointed as professor. He retrained himself as a dialectologist, working with Lebanese dialects. It was only in 1980 that a chair for Arabic Language was established and another dialectologist, Heikki Palva, was appointed to it in 1982. After the retirement of Professor Palva in 1998, the chair was renamed Arabic and Islamic Studies. The chair, at the Institute for Asian and African Studies (IAAS, University of Helsinki), has been held by the present writer, Jaakko Hämeen-Anttila, since 2000.

This volume, which is the print component of an introduction to Islamiccivilization course produced by the Foreign Policy Association in cooperationwith National Public Radio and the University of Texas at Austin, wasmade possible by funds from the Exxon Education Foundation and the Corporationfor Public Broadcasting. Written specifically for adult readers withlittle or no background in Islamic studies, the book lacks the scholarlyparaphernalia of footnotes and diacritical marks.Divided into 14 chapters, the work features the writings of luminaries suchas Fazlur Rahman, Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Francis Peters and John O. Voll,to name but a few of the list of contributors. Opening the work is the 28-pagechapter of Peter J. Awn, who gives a comprehensive and introspectiveaccount of Muslim faith and practice. He reminds his predominently Westernaudience that, contrary to the writings of educators, writers and journalistsin the West, Islam is historically a Western religion, deriving from the sameSemitic spritual sources as Judaism and Christianity. After pointing out thehistorical links between Islam and the other Semitic traditions, he goes onto discuss a number of issues in the Islamic religion. Awn’s discussion of thefive pillars of Islam is certainly refreshing, for it shows a sense of sympathyand understanding which has not yet been evident among many of the oldergenerations of Islamicists called orientalists. In his discussion of the diversityin the Muslim Ummah, Awn takes the position that the Sunni/Shite divideshould not be seen in terms of an orthodoxy/heterodoxy dichotomy. He goeson to explain the historical evolution of the tvcro communities in terms of politicsin the early Islamic state, and his account follows the familiar interpretationsin the Western works.The second chapter, written by University of Chicago Professor, Dr. FazlurRahman, treats us to a 25-page study of the Prophet Mohammad. Drawingfrom his earlier work, Professor Rahman gives a very illuminating historicalaccount of the Prophet’s struggle with the Meccan Polytheists. Indeed, whatmakes this chapter quite interesting is the manner in which the author ...

Proficient phrase mastery in a language is very important to further strengthen the mastery of the language. This is because, various aspects need to be considered before a phrase can be mastered either in writing or speech. Various studies have reported on students' weaknesses in phrase mastery. Thus, this study focuses on mastery in one type of noun phrase only, namely the phrase al-idhāfah or also known as annexation phrase. This descriptive quantitative study was conducted on 186 final year students, majoring in Islamic studies, Faculty of Contemporary Islamic Studies, Sultan Zainal Abidin University. Study data were collected through the implementation of a set of written test questions related to the phrase al-idhāfah. The findings show that the majority of students are at a low level (weak) in the mastery of the phrase al-idhāfah as a whole, either according to the division of marks, grades, level of mastery, and also according to the construct of questions that have been built. It is hoped that this study can be a source of ideas for researchers in further developing a more innovative teaching and learning industry in the future. Keywords: phrase al-idhafah, annex, Arabic language, al-idhafah Penguasaan frasa yang mantap dalam sesuatu bahasa adalah sangat penting bagi memperkukuhkan lagi penguasaan terhadap bahasa tersebut. Ini kerana, pelbagai aspek perlu dipertimbangkan sebelum sesuatu frasa itu dapat dikuasai sama ada dalam penulisan mahupun pertuturan. Pelbagai kajian telah melaporkan tentang kelemahan para pelajar dalam penguasaan frasa. Justeru, kajian ini memberi pemfokusan kepada penguasaan dalam satu jenis frasa nama sahaja iaitu frasa al-idhāfah ataupun juga dikenali sebagai frasa aneksi. Kajian kuantitatif yang bersifat deskriptif ini dijalankan ke atas 186 orang pelajar tahun akhir, jurusan pengajian Islam, Fakulti Pengajian Kontemporari Islam, Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin. Data kajian dikumpul melalui pelaksanaan satu set soalan ujian bertulis berkaitan dengan frasa al-idhāfah. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa majoriti pelajar berada pada tahap rendah (lemah) dalam penguasaan frasa al-idhāfah secara keseluruhannya, sama ada mengikut pembahagian markah, gred, tahap penguasaan, dan juga mengikut konstruk-konstruk soalan yang telah dibina. Kajian ini diharap dapat menjadi satu pencetus idea kepada pengkaji-pengkaji dalam memajukan lagi industri pengajaran dan pembelajaran yang lebih inovatif pada masa akan datang.   Kata kunci: frasa al-idhāfah/ frasa aneksi; bahasa Arab; al-idhāfah.

This study is to identify the involvement of academicians on the teaching of the hadith. The contribution of the academicians to the teaching of the hadith is also very much needed so that Muslims can acknowledge al-Sunnah closely. The academicians were selected from Academic of Islamic Studies, University of Malaya Islamic Studies Academy, the National University of Malaysia, the Islamic Science University of Malaysia and the International Islamic University which they are all from various fields of Islamic Studies. The methodology used in this study is a questionnaire which is group sampling. The researcher distributes the questionnaire to the academic staff at the university involved. Based on this descriptive analysis of the questionnaire, it can be concluded that academic practitioners either in the field of hadith or other fields are involved and contribute to the teaching of hadith such as in public universities and other institutions. This shows that most academicians have good knowledge related to the field of hadith. Therefore, they are among the most suitable as references to the community in solving Sunnah and bidaah issues, especially the academicians who are experts in the field of hadith. Abstrak Kajian ini adalah untuk mengenalpasti penglibatan ahli akademik terhadap pengajaran hadith. Sumbangan ahli akademik terhadap pengajaran hadith juga amat diperlukan agar umat Islam dapat mengenali al-Sunnahsecara  lebih  dekat.  Ahli-ahli  akademik  yang  dipilih  adalah  dari  Akademi  Pengajian  Islam  Universiti Malaya,   Universiti   Kebangsaan   Malaysia,   Universiti   Sains   Islam   Malaysia   dan   Universiti   Islam Antarabangsa  yang  mana  kesemuanya  dalam  pelbagai  bidang  Pengajian  Islam.  Kaedah yang  digunakan dalam kajian ini adalah soal selidik iaitu persampelan berkelompok. Penyelidikmengedarkan borang soal selidik tersebut kepada ahli akademik di universiti tersebut. Berdasarkan, analisis deskriptif soal selidik ini, dapat dirumuskan bahawa ahli akademik sama ada dalam bidang hadith atau lain-lain bidang adalah terlibat dan turut memberi sumbangan dalam pengajaran hadith seperti di universiti-universiti awam dan lain-lain institusi  pengajian.  Ini  menunjukkan  bahawa  kebanyakan  ahli  akademik  mempunyai  pengetahuan  yang baik  berkaitan  dengan  bidang  hadith.  Oleh  itu,  mereka  adalah  antara  golongan  sangat  sesuai  dijadikan sebagai rujukan masyarakat dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan Sunnah dan bidaah, terutama sekali ahli akademik yang pakar dalam bidang hadith.

Within the broader discipline of Qur'anic exegesis, the sub-genre of the mutashābihāt al-Qurʾān (the ambiguous verses of the Qur'an) is comprised of works dedicated to the identification and explication of those verses that present theological or linguistic challenges. Yet, the approach, style, and objective of the scholars who have written commentaries on the ambiguous verses are far from monolithic. This essay brings into focus the internal diversity of this important exegetical tradition by focusing on the Qur'an commentaries of two major scholars in fourth/eleventh-century Baghdad, al-Sharīf al-Raḍī (d. 406/1016) and Qāḍī ʿAbd al-Jabbār (d. 415/1025). Al-Raḍī was a prominent Twelver Shīʿī theologian and poet while ʿAbd al-Jabbār was a leading Muʿtazilī theologian during this period; al-Raḍī was also ʿAbd al-Jabbār's student and disciple. Through a close reading of their respective commentaries on two Qur'anic verses, I explore possible interconnections and interactions between Shīʿī and Muʿtazilī traditions of exegesis, and demonstrate that while ʿAbd al-Jabbār mobilised the language of Islamic jurisprudence, al-Raḍī primarily relied on early Islamic poetry and the etymology of the Arabic language. Methodologically, I argue against a conceptual approach that valorises sectarian and theological identity as the primary determinant of hermeneutical desires and sensibilities.

In Islamic Studies, charisma has usually been reserved for the study of marginalized individuals. I argue here that charisma may also be applied to leadership among legal scholars. To do so, I join a long line of scholars who have modified Max Weber’s initial insights, and put forth a new, dynamic model of charismatic authority. The purpose of my model is to account for the fact that religious histories emphasize the uniqueness of the originating charismatic event, be that Prophet Muhammad’s revelations, Jesus’ theophany or the Buddha’s enlightenment, while at the same time recognizing that the charismatic cycle never quite ends. In contrast with Weber, I argue that charismatic authority in religious traditions is best understood as a network of influence and interaction through which the routinization of charisma reinterprets and redefines the meaning of the originating charismatic event.

كان من أهم الآثار الإيجابية للصحوة الإسلامية التى عمت العالم الإسلامى بشكل ملحوظ منذ أوائل السبعينيات فى القرن العشرين زيادة إقبال الشعوب الإسلامية على تعلم اللغة العربية، وبدأ الاهتمام الحقيقى لجامعات العالم الإسلامى بتوفير مساقات متخصصة لهذا الغرض منذ أوائل الثمانينات، وكانت الجامعة الإسلامية العالمية بماليزيا التى أسست سنة 1983 من أنشط الجامعات فى هذا الصدد، وهو نشاط استلفت نظر الباحث إذ وجده يستحق الرصد والتوثيق العلمى، والمراجعة إذا اقتضت الضرورة لا بهدف الإشادة بالتجربة بل رغبة فى الإفادة والاستفادة من قبل المختصين من المهتمين بهذا الميدان الحيوى من ميادين خدمة اللغة العربية بل خدمة الإسلام، وحضارته نظرا للارتباط الوثيق بين اللغة العربية وهذا الدين الحنيف باعتبارها لغة كتابه الخالد، والمعلم الرئيس من معالم الهوية الإسلامية المميزة والصمود الحضارى.*****************************************************One of the most positive effects of the Islamic awakening since the early seventies, in the twentieth century, which spread across the Islamic world in a significant manner, has been the increased Muslims’ interest in learning the Arabic language all over the world.

Due to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, dental treatment performed by undergraduate students at the University of Marburg/Germany was immediately stopped in spring 2020 and stepwise reinstalled under a new hygiene concept until full recovery in winter 2020/21. Patient treatment in the student courses was evaluated based on three aspects: (1) Testing of patients with a SARS-CoV-2 Rapid Antigen (SCRA) Test applied by student assistants (SA); (2) Improved hygiene regimen, with separated treatment units, cross-ventilation, pre-operative mouth rinse and rubber dam application wherever possible; (3) Recruitment of patients: 735 patients were pre-registered for the two courses; 384 patients were treated and a total of 699 tests with the SCRA test were performed by SAs. While half of the patients treated in the course were healthy, over 40% of the patients that were pre-registered but not treated in the course revealed a disease being relevant to COVID (p < 0.001). 46 patients had concerns to visit the dental hospital due to the increase of COVID incidence levels, 14 persons refused to be tested. The presented concept was suitable to enable patient treatment in the student course during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.
