“Accessible and readable. Spotlights an important theological theme in a way that both illuminates its internal development in Islamic thought and presents it as a helpful basis for interreligious discussion. The topic is very much in need of teaching and discussion and is a fine example of ‘common ground.’”—John Renard, author of Islam and Christianity “Contains valuable and fascinating material about how classical Muslim theologians treated various aspects of Jesus and, in particular, the role of Jesus in Islamic eschatology. Saritoprak brings new insights from contemporary Turkish thinkers to bear on the issues raised by the Jesus figure in Islamic narratives about the Last Da...
Mesianisme adalah suatu paham yang menunggu kehadiran seorang “messiah” yang bakal menyelamatkan umat manusia dan mewujudkan keadilan bagi penduduk bumi. Perkataan “messiah” sendiri berasal dari bahasa Ibrani, “messiah”, yang merupakan padanan atau cognate perkataan Arab, al-masih.

Tetapi mengenai bakal turunnya Imam Mahdi, kepercayaan di kalangan kaum Syi’i lebih kuat dan merata daripada di kalangan kaum Sunni.
Pilgrimage, travel for learning, visits to shrines, exile, and labour migration shape the religious imagination and in turn are shaped by it. Some travel, such as pilgrimage, explicitly intended for religious purposes, has equally important economic and political consequences.

These studies, encompassing Muslim societies from Malaysia to West Africa, also suggest how encounters with Muslim `others' have been as important in shaping community self-definition as encounters with European 'others'.

Menyikapi perbedaan pendapat secara membabi-buta dan mau menang sendiri di mana yang diklaim paling benar adalah hanya dirinya dan kelompoknya, sementara yang lain dianggap salah bahkan sesat; jelas merupakan sikap yang tidak bijak dan tidak sesuai dengan yang dipraktikkan oleh generasi salafush shalih. Selain itu, sikap semacam ini juga menunjukkan ketidakmatangan ilmu dan kerendahan akhlaq seseorang. Lebih tragis lagi, jika orang tersebut tidak mau menjelaskan letak kebenaran yang ada pada diri dan kelompoknya kepada orang atau pihak lain yang dituduhnya sesat dan ahlu bid'ah secara langsung. Bagaimana mungkin seseorang bisa mengklaim dirinya benar dan yang lain salah sementara dia tidak b...
