The school of the Oneness of Being (<em>Wahdat al-Wujud</em>) provides valuable examples for this concepts, esp., in the commentaries on the treatise of <em>Fusus al-Hikam </em>by Ibn al-‘Arabi. In particular, the chapter on the prophet Zakariyya demonstrate the reflection on the concept of mercy in the school of the Oneness of Being. The indigenization of this Sufi tradition is based on these commentaries that has been of utmost importance for the school of the Oneness of Being. The article analyzed some of these commentaries in the light of this localization process. Commentaries that emerged in and around the Indian Ocean, e.g., Al-Qāshānī, Jāmī, and Ilāhābādī, were selected. They can be considered part of the local wisdom in the Asiatic realms. The current article found the idea of indigenization of key concepts of Islamic spirituality in Muslim communities, particularly through Ibn ‘Arabi’s work.</p> 2023-09-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2023 Journal of Asian Wisdom and Islamic Behavior https://jawab.web.id/index.php/JAWAB/article/view/62 Bridging the Traditional and the Digital: Practices of Indonesia’s Tarekat Qadiriyya and Naqsyabandiyya 2023-08-22T12:16:19+00:00 Siswoyo Aris Munandar Siswoyo siswoyoaris31@gmaill.com Fahrurrozi Fahrurrozi siswoyoaris31@gmail.com <p>Sufism is often regarded as a doctrine that demands individuals to abandon worldly life and live in simplicity.

Iqbal Irham muhammadiqbalirham@uinsu.ac.id <p>This study aims to explain hudur al-qalb as a tasawuf psychotherapy method for mental health. As a literature research, this article will examine hudur al-qalb in the thinking of Sufi experts, such as al-Ghazali and Ibn al-’Arabi, and to what extent it can provide benefits in mental health, namely peace of mind and soul. This research has implications for efforts to cure mental stress by tasawuf psychotherapy. This research is qualitative in nature, namely it is carried out by collecting, analyzing, and interpreting narratives comprehensively on visual data to gain complete, comprehensive and holistic insight into the phenomenon of hudur al-qalb. The results of the study found that Hudur al-qalb is a condition in which the heart is awake, namely in a stand-by position. This vigilance keeps the heart in awareness, and of course in vigilance. This wakefulness keeps the heart in awareness and in ‘mindfulness’. This condition leads to intelligence of mind, meaning of life, clarity of heart, as well as silence and reassurance of the soul. In addition, this condition can also eliminate mental anxiety and reduce negligence.</p> 2023-09-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2023 Journal of Asian Wisdom and Islamic Behavior https://jawab.web.id/index.php/JAWAB/article/view/66 Phronesis Dimension (Al-Syu’ur Al-’Fadhillah) As A New Manhaj Of Contemporary Fiqh: Case Study of Central MUI Fatwa No. 14 of 2021 and East Java MUI Fatwa No. 1 of 2021 on the Law of AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 Vaccine Products 2023-07-22T13:06:20+00:00 Shofiyullah Muzzammil shofiyullah.mz@uin-suka.ac.id <p>Before the vaccination movement, MUI evaluated the fiqh of various vaccinations in Indonesia, including the contentious AstraZeneca vaccine. The AstraZeneca vaccination was deemed halal by the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) of East Java in its Fatwa Number 1 of 2021. Using the justification of istihalah (transforming impure items into something else), East Java MUI pronounced the AstraZeneca vaccination halal. By citing the Shafi’iyah madhhab, which upholds the principle of caution (ikhtiyath), and avoiding controversy, the Central MUI ruled the AstraZeneca vaccine to be haram-mubah because it did not accept istihalah in the process of istinbath pork products contaminated with pork elements and their derivatives (khuruj minal khilaf). The goal of maslahah wal fadhillah, or maximizing profit by prudent and effective preventative measures, is the philosophy of fiqh.</p> 2023-09-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2023 Journal of Asian Wisdom and Islamic Behavior https://jawab.web.id/index.php/JAWAB/article/view/65 Revitalizing Communal Piety Through Heutagogy: Local Wisdom and Leadership Development among New Muhammadiyah Members with CBPR 2023-07-11T06:38:40+00:00 Mauloeddin Afna mauloeddin.afna@iainlangsa.ac.id <p>This article focused on a participatory action research that aimed to develop leadership characteristics among middle-ranged members of the Muhammadiyah organization in Kota Langsa.
