Bukan hal mengherankan jika pada akhirnya hukum Islam memainkan peran penting dalam pembangunan hukum di Indonesia. Dalam historiografi, hukum Islam telah menjadi dasar pengaturan masyarakat dalam rentang lama, setidak- tidaknya dimulai ketika Kesultanan Perlak berdiri pada 840. Di masa Hindia Belanda, hukum Islam hidup dengan beragam corak yang berkonstelasi dengan hukum adat dan hukum kolonial. Ketika deklarasi kemerdekaan Indonesia pada 1945, hukum Islam tetap menempati posisi strategis dan itu bisa dilihat dari kontestasi penentuan dasar negara. Pada hari ini, hukum Islam dihadapkan pada situasi yang lebih kompleks. Kita hidup dalam suatu—meminjam abstraksi McLuhan—“global village” yang membuat kita tak bisa menghindar dari impresi kesejagatan. Kehidupan di negara-negara lain, terutama yang lebih maju, kerap memengaruhi kita dengan cepat dan membuat batas antara diri “kita” dan “mereka” menjadi begitu sama

This book argues that political Islam (represented by its moderate and militant forms) has failed to govern effectively or successfully due to its inability to reconcile its discursive understanding of Islam, centered on literal justice, with the dominant neo-liberal value of freedom. Consequently, Islamists' polities have largely been abject, often tragic failures in providing a viable collective life and sound governance. This argument is developed theoretically and supported through a set of case studies represented by the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt (under President Muhammad Morsi’s tenure), Hassan Turabi's National Islamic Front in Sudan and The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS). It is ideal for audiences interested in Regional Politics, Islamic Studies and Middle Eastern Studies.
Beyond Training examines the nature of second language teacher development and how teachers' practices are influenced by their beliefs and principles. It seeks to move discussion of language teacher development beyond the level of "training," which reflects a technical view of specific teaching practices. Instead, it takes a more holistic approach to teacher development built on the notion of the teacher as critical and reflective thinker. The argument pursued throughout is that teacher education needs to engage teachers not merely in the mastery of techniques, but in an exploration of the knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes that underly their teaching practices.
Barakatud Du'a or The Blessings of Prayer, written by the Promised Messiah in 1893, is a refutation of Sir Sayyid Ahmad Khan's view that there is no such thing as the acceptance of prayer, and that prayer is no more than a form of worship. The Promised Messiah rejects this view and proclaims that Allah hears and accepts the supplication of believers which are offered in humility and sincerity, and that the acceptance of prayer sets in motion its own chain of causes which culminates in the fulfilment of the objective prayed for. In the second part of the book, which deals with Sir Sayyid Ahmad Khan's other book Usulut Tafsir (On the Principles of Commentary of the Holy Quran), the Promised Messiah presents his criteria or guiding principles for the correct interpretation of the Holy Quran.
The basic tenet here is that we do not translate words, but texts, and that these competing models can be integrated into a more global theory of translation by viewing the translation process as a primarily textual process. The authors examine in detail the characteristics that make a good translation a text, focusing particularly on the empirical relationship between the theory of translation and it's practice.
