“…The first principle can be classified as theoretical, while the second is practical. These basic elements can be developed and applied to create a general model of the concept of good deeds (M. R. Rahman et al, 2017). In the worldly dimension, good deeds manifest as efforts to support prosperity and well-being at both individual and collective levels within the family and wider society.…”

There are situations that require patience for Muslim students, such as patience in following the commands and prohibitions of Allah SWT, which is also referred to as patience in piety. Additionally, Muslim students need to exercise patience in maintaining their relationship with Allah SWT and fellow living beings, known as patience in performing good deeds. The purpose of this research is to investigate the influence of piety and good deeds on patience among Muslim students in an Islamic campus. The participants involved in this study were 227 Muslim students enrolled in the Faculty of Psychology at the Islamic University of Riau. Convenient sampling was employed for data collection. The data were gathered using the patience scale, good deeds scale, and piety scale. Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis was conducted using smart PLS 3.0 M3 software. The findings of this research indicate that piety has a positive and significant influence on patience among Muslim students in an Islamic campus, while good deeds do not have a significant influence and are discussed as a limitation of this study. The implications of this research provide new empirical support regarding factors influencing patience, specifically the variable of piety.

“…In other words, 'ilm is about "understanding the reality of things," which means, understanding what the things are in themselves and not only what they appear to be. This includes "an understanding of their meaning both in depth and in extent, real purpose, and significance (Abd Rahman and Abdul Muthaliff, 2017). "…”

Islamic Versus Western Conceptions of Knowledge

Islam has given great importance to knowledge acquisition, preservation, application and dissemination. It regards knowledge as one of the uncountable favours of Allah and His greatest gift to mankind. With knowledge, not only mankind can change the environment or create a civilization, but they are also able to distinguish reality from illusion, truth from falsehood or other alternatives. Despite the value of knowledge and its indispensability, there is a lack of consensus among epistemologists and philosophers as to what knowledge is and where it comes from or how it is acquired. This article sets out to: first, evaluate Plato’s view that knowledge is “justified true belief”; second define and explain the meaning of knowledge from the Islamic and Western perspectives; third, identify the ways of knowing or methods of acquiring knowledge, and; finally, describe the relationship between ‘ilm or the all-embracing Islamic epistemic term, and the following Islamic concepts: yaqin (certainty), iman (belief, faith or conviction which is based on reason and knowledge), taqwa (God-consciousness), hikmah (wisdom) and ma‘rifah (recognition of Allah, knowledge of the reality of things, etc.). This article is based on desk research and it draws on primary Islamic sources namely, the Qur’an and Hadith, as well as secondary works on the concept of knowledge from the Islamic and Western perspectives. Translation of the meanings of the selected verses from the Qur’an is based on ‘Abdullah Yusuf ‘Ali’s Translation of the Meaning of the Qur’an except in a few places where other translations seemed more appropriate. After reading this exposition of knowledge, one should be able to: (a) explain the meaning and concept of knowledge from the Islamic and Western perspectives, (b) examine the relationship between knowledge and information, and ‘ilm and taqwa, ma‘rifah, iman and hikmah, and (c) differentiate between the Islamic and Western perspectives of knowledge.

Imam Al-Ghazali on The Balance Observance of ‘Ibadah (Devotional Act): An Enduring Legacy to The Muslim World

This article analyses Imam al-Ghazali’s theory of the balance observance of ibadah (devotional acts or good deeds) among Muslims. Performing ‘ibadah, is part and parcel of the Muslims’ life. Nevertheless, the majority of Muslims—scholars and the public alike—place great emphasis only on the diligent outward performance of devotional acts, and on the observance of the outward requirements. However, Imam al-Ghazali goes beyond this normative practice, arguing that a mere outward observance of devotional acts is still insufficient, and indeed is still at risk. This article is theoretical in nature, and it involves bibliographic research, employing descriptive and analytic methods. The article founds that Imam al-Ghazali maintains devotional acts consist of outward and inward dimensions, and both need to be observed simultaneously and kept in balance. It is only through this balance observance that devotional acts will be transformed from mere physical motions of pure ritualistic observance to spiritually rich deeds, filled with real understanding, wisdom, and realisation.
