Jakarta, NU Online
In keeping up with and facing continuing global issues, it's now necessary to have new perspectives on religious understandings in interpreting already-existing qur'anic verses and hadits (Prophet traditions).
"It's important to build new perspectives on religious understandings," chairman of the Central Board of Nahdlatul Ulama (PBNU) KH Masdar F. Mas'udi said at a meeting taking up issues on environment and climate change here Wednesday, adding that Gos Himself has sent his messengers in accordance with their own 'geisteswissenchaften'.<>
Masdar was of view that in Islam there had been principle matters which can no longer be changed like tauhid and no one can allow what God has forbidden and no one can forbid what God has allowed. While the remaining matters, he said, were the domain of ijtihad among Muslims including taking into account of the context.
Masdar said, in addition to engaging in such subject matters as nahwu and shorof (Arabic grammatical) kiai (Muslim clerics) should also understand other disciplines like philosophy, economy, environment and so forth in dealing with any religious perspective change.
He further gave an example that in the perspective of Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) 'water, in addition to being the medium of junub or ablution could also be used as the source of life which must be maintained. (mkf)
