Momentum Broadening Understanding of Religion



KH Mas Mansyur never gave us a good advice: "Let the religious schools of the actual (pure) were spread as wide as possible, tested and compared, so that we understand and ensure that Islam is the most correct, lightweight and useful, to feel good precedence of religious practice it ".
the momentum

Deviation
Advice is then determined to be one of the 12 Steps of Muhammadiyah. Meaning, the Islamic religion does not bind to understand the followers-followers to simply understand the problem in a single religion, both in terms of worship and muamalah duniawiyah. There are various hadith and a variety of approaches in deciding



matters of fiqh, so it may be narrowed only be one kind of religious path.

One Qa'idah usul fiqh mention that Islamic laws can vary with the person given the circumstances. Therefore, should the religion is not just one approach being considered, but also another approach to in-Legal Affairs Committee and its legal position was decided in order to apply for the people.

Another lesson, we are not being promoted to school fanatic or fanatical worshipers, but make it all as a source of diversity in the Islamic heritage that enrich each other. This is what is meant by KH Mas Mansyur as "broaden understanding of the religion".

In contrast is a very necessary thing in this life. God has outlined in His word in surah Al-Hujurat: 13, "O mankind! We created you from male and female, and We have made you a variety of tribes and  nations, so that you get to know-kenala. Semulia Lo-noble you in the sight of Allah is he who is more pious among you ".

From the verse, it is clear that differences among human beings is nature. However, the differences in the matter of religion should not be a protracted conflict. Prophet has ordered us to return to the Qur'an and Sunnah when disagreements in religion.
That is why a Muslim is not allowed to take only opinion.

Truth is opinion must be tested and compared to its

fullest. Compared with what is truth? Of the above two

things: the Qur'an and Sunnah.

Legal Affairs Committee
Hence there is no known mechanism Legal Affairs

Committee, namely to compare all sorts of opinions by

looking at the arguments that can be formulated a law

that really rajih and according to the source, namely the

Qur'an and Sunnah.

In understanding fiqh course, there are various schools

that developed in Islam. The existence of differences in

many schools due to differences in deciding upon the

methodology istinbath fiqh. In one case, there could be a

judge makruh schools, but there are other schools that

actually break the Sunnah.

For example, in the understanding of Shawwal fasting,

Imam Malik ibn Anas menghukuminya with makruh. He

reasoned that the fasts of Shawwal was not done by an

expert of his day and age medina before. And on that

basis' charity experts as the basis of air-madina

istinbath.

However, it states that Imam Shafi'i mu'akkad Sunnah.

Relying on the hadith "man shaama ramadhaana Thumma

atba'ahu sittan min Shawwal faka'annama kashiyamid

dahri". Whoever fasted Ramadan, accompanied by six days

of Shawwal is as if he fasted throughout the year

(Narrated by Muslim).

Another example, touching the women. Imam Shafi'i

interpreted the verse An-Nisa: 43 (aw laa mastumun-Nisa

') in letterlijk, namely physical contact, so that in the

opinion Syafi'iyah contact with women (inadvertently) the

law null and void. However, it is not the case with Imam

Ahmad. He interpreted the "touch" is a lughawi with the

word "sex", thus inadvertently touched the woman does not

invalidate the ablution.

Of course, two opinions relied on the methodology of law

-making that clear. It is precisely at this point that

people must choose. Which of these two opinions that can

really be used. This is called the Legal Affairs

Committee. And the procedure used to be scientific.

I think this road is better than using only one kind of

approach and blame others. Using one approach alone is

not a problem, but which is fatal if blaming others. This

is counterproductive to the spirit of Islam is raised.

The scholars ushuliyyin has given a rule in determining

usul fiqh. Al-Fil Ashlu Worship Tahrim lit, hatta dalla

lijawaziha Ad-proof. Wal Ashlu fil muamalati lilibahati

hatta dalla Ad-lit tahrimiha propositions. The legal

origin of the worship is unlawful, unless there are

propositions that allow it. And the legal origin of

muamalah is allowed, unless there is proof that

mengharamkannya.

Therefore, differences in Islam should not be addressed

with slander or insults in the mosques. Differences in

Islam, it should not be a material conflict. Often

problems arise from one congregation to another

congregation, one organization with another organization,

etc., simply because of different views in some way.

In contrast, the difference is a tool to unlock the truth

more openly, in order to understand our religion can be

extended as widely as possible without looking at the

identity of another person's pilgrims. Included also in

matters muamalah duniawiyah, one political.

'Intiqad
Another advice is promoted by KH Mas Mansyur is

menuntunkan practice 'intiqad or self-correction. Self-

correction is done in a variety of social and charitable

deeds, so as not to feel smug and self-righteous in

performing religious duties.

According to KH Mas Mansyur, all the effort and work we

should always be repaired with its own investigation.

Collectively, the fruit of the investigation and repairs

that must dimusyawaratkan basis and keep madlarat bring

serious benefits.

That is, all sorts of decisions made, especially in

matters muamalah duniawiyah, is not final and could still

be reviewed if there are mistakes or changes. This is

especially seen in social issues, namely to do with self

-corrections of ijtihad are taken.

Rule usul mengaktakan that religion dharara wa laa laa

dhiraar. And avoid the harm that takes precedence over

seeking mashlahah. That is, the determination of law

should look at his element mafsadatdan serious benefits

for the people to Muamalah case.

'Intiqad actually closely related to the first premise

above, namely to expand understanding of the religion.

Attitudes to expand religious understanding by looking at

the sources of truth openly to be followed by the

attitude of 'intiqad, which means there are fanatics on

one opinion that is considered correct.

Attitude 'means reflective intiqad; truth is not on

ourselves and not attributed to a particular group, but

on God. That is, the attitude of 'intiqad will keep us

from truth claims are exaggerated.

With a transformative way of thinking, 'intiqad also be

interpreted as an attitude tawadhu' dantasamuh to fellow

Muslims. Truths which are believed not to make us push

the truth to other Muslims, because after all the truth

must get continuous evaluation. Indeed, the truth compels

us to mendialogkannya with others so that different

opinions can be analyzed.

If there is any mistake, God has commanded in the An-

Naml: 125 to argue with a good way (wa bil-latii

jaadilhum hiya ahsan). Thus, expanding the understanding

of the religion to be followed by 'intiqad order to

produce personal fellow Muslims who are tolerant of

Muslims, and avoid unnecessary divisions.

Ramadan
So, Ramadan can be a momentum for us to do two things.

First, Ramadan encourages us to constantly expand the

understanding of the religion that does not stop to

stagnate in one opinion / approach, but continued to dig

up the deepest source of religion. In the month of

Ramadan, we were told to "read" verses of the Qur'an and

"read" the sources of religious truth so we can

understand extended.

Second, Ramadan also encourages us to continue to correct

our actions, including the truth of what we believe.

There is a dialectical process that is taught to get

these truths to be relevant and can be applied by the

people. In the month of Ramadan, we are encouraged

untuki'tikaf, that one dimension is the self-evaluation

and evaluation of social praxis that can be improved

continuously.

Thus, the religious behavior of the resulting post-

Ramadan is expected behavior is a tolerant religion but

full of truth values. Therefore, Ramadan is a month of

training for it. Let's expand the understanding of the

religion and let menuntunkan charity 'intiqad, as

diwasiatkan by KH Mas Mansyur, our teachers first.

FII billahi sabilil haq.
