Faham Ilmu Dalam Islam: Pengamatan Terhadap Tiga Takrifan Utama Ilmu
Mohd Zaidi Ismail, (2009) Faham Ilmu Dalam Islam: Pengamatan Terhadap Tiga Takrifan Utama Ilmu. AFKAR Journal of Aqidah and Islamic Thought (10). pp. 39-60. ISSN 1511-8819 Official URL: http://apium.um.edu.my/ AffiliationsInstitut Kefahama Islam Malaysia AbstractMeskipun terdapat pelbagai takrifan terhadap ilmu yang pernah dikemukakan oleh para ilmuwan Islam silam, namun, apabila satu-satu takrif itu digunakan pada ketika yang wajar lagi sesuai, ia pasti dapat menjelaskan ciri dan segi ilmu yang tidak diliputi oleh takrif-takrif yang lainnya. Dalam makalah ini, tumpuan diberikan kepada tiga bentuk takrifan yang setiap satunya berperanan menyerlahkan beberapa sifat dan watak ilmu yang utama dan penting. Takrif yang pertama menegaskan bahawa ilmu itu suatu sifat insani yang menerangi; takrif yang kedua pula merumuskan ilmu sebagai pegangan atau kesimpulan yang benar, yakin, dan berasaskan bukti yang munasabah; manakala takrif yang ketiga, sebagaimana yang dirumuskan kembali oleh S. M. N. al-Attas, menjelaskan ilmu sebagai ketibaan ma`na sesuatu pada diri, sekaligus keberhasilan diri menyerapinya.
Although past Muslim scholars had offered many definitions and descriptions of knowledge, if each description is used on the right occasion, it may then shed light on some aspects and characteristics of knowledge which are not properly dealt with by the other descriptions. This article focuses on three such descriptions, each functioning to make manifest certain important and principal features and attributes of knowledge. The first description emphasizes that knowledge is an attribute of man that enlightens; the second description summarizes it as a belief or conviction that is true, certain and based on right proofs; while the third description, as reformulated by S. M. N. al-Attas, explains knowledge as the arrival in the soul of the meaning of a thing as well as the arrival of the soul at the meaning of a thing. | Item Type: | Journal |
