AZYUMARDI AZRA THINKING ABOUT PARADIGM SCIENTIFIC AND INSTITUTIONAL AND IMPLICATIONS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF ISLAMIC STATE UNIVERSITY (UIN) SYARIF HIDAYATULLAH JAKARTA

Definition of Science

Azyumardi Azra (hereinafter referred Azra), suggests that 'Ilm is mashdar tawkîd of the verb 'alima which means the knowledge (knowledge). 'Ilm different from ma'rifah which also means "knowledge". P engertian in the original, the first term refers to knowledge of the highest quality that can sometimes be obtained only intuitively, while the second term refers to knowledge in general. In the classical usage, 'ilm has no plural-s esuai with the singularity of the concept of' ilm itself in the earliest days of Islam. However, in Arabic pascaklasik, plural allowed, ie 'ul û m, which refers to a variety of word' ilm of different types of knowledge. In the context of pengert ian latter is then not every person who has' ilm (knowledge) can be called ulama; only those who are experts in religious sciences ( 'ul û m al-diniyah) who have privileges (priveleges) for the cleric. [20] It is understood that the science by Azra is mashdar tawkîd of the verb 'alima which means the knowledge (knowledge) from Allah, both sciences qur'ani y well and sciences kauniyyah.

The Scientific Basis

According to Azra, that p is no principle, the concept of education I slam-which I think is ideal but also practical-is what is called tauh î d paradigm or paradigm of tawhid. In this case, the monotheistic paradigm does not mean only the Oneness of God, but integrating all aspects, the entire outlook and aspects of life in the system and soc ial our field. [21] In the context of Islamization of science, which must attach himself to the principle of monotheism is a knowledgeseekers (Talib al-ilmi) her, not science itself. Similarly, should recognize that humans are in the atmosphere of dominance provisions of metaphysical and axiological God is man

Introduction

1The role of religious agency in democratization processes has caught increased academic attention since the inaccurateness of the secularization paradigm became widely accepted and a “religious turn” started to gain ground in the social sciences from the 1980s onwards. A more nuanced and fine-grained understanding on the nexus between religion and democratization has evolved, which points toward the ambivalence and the Janus-faced character of the sacred (Appleby 2000) as well as its increasing role as a public force in processes of modernization and political liberalization (Casanova 1994). Accordingly, religious actors—defined as “any individual or collectivity, local or transnational, who acts coherently and consistently to influence politics in the name of religion” (Philpott 2007: 506)—take up multifaceted roles in democratization processes (Künkler and Leininger 2009). They can support or hamper the introduction of democracy in their country (Toft, Philpott, and Shah 2011; Künkler and Leininger 2009; Philpott 2007; Cheng and Brown 2006), and due to several structural reasons and lack of resources may also opt to abstain from clearly positioning themselves politically (tho Seeth 2020). In societies where religion plays an important role in shaping personal and group identities, attitudes, and behavior, religious actors can take crucial leading positions during a democratic transition and publicly mobilize faithful followers for or against democracy.

2Such was particularly the case in Indonesia where during the Reformasi (reform/democratization) from 1998 to 2004 the future role of Islam in state and society was heatedly debated about in the public sphere. The Reformasi was characterized by the mushrooming of anti-democracy Islamic groups—Front Pembela Islam (Defenders of Islam Front, FPI), Laskar Jihad (Jihad Army, LJ), Jemaah Islamiyah (Islamic Congregation, JI), and Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia (Indonesian Party of Liberation, HTI)
