“…Concurrentism is a divine action model where God creates things possessing innate causal power, but their effects are only realized in the world with God's concurrent action. This understanding of early Māturīdite divine action is suggested by Ramon Harvey (2018, 32–34; 2021, 93), while Muhtaroglu (2017a, 9–11, 17) and Bulgen (2019, 261) read early Māturīdite texts as advocating a form of occasionalism. According to the concurrentist model, fire has the innate causal power to turn cotton to ash, but that causal power can only be realized with God's concurrent action.…”

Wisdom‐based arguments recognize that God has the power to act or refrain from acting in a certain way, but His wisdom dictates a particular course of action. Such arguments have been applied on both sides of the creation/evolution debate among Muslims. This article analyzes a number of contemporary wisdom‐based arguments for and against evolution in light of how God's wisdom is understood by classical Muslim theologians of the three canonical Sunnī schools of Ashʿarism, Māturīdism, and Atharism/Salafism. It finds that there is a considerable disconnect between these contemporary arguments and how God's wisdom has been traditionally understood. It also examines the high level of subjectivity exhibited by these arguments and the potential negative impact this subjectivity could have on the broader debate.

“…Indonesia is the largest Muslim country, and relationships between women and men outside marriage are seen as a bad influence of modernity brought by the Western world (Akmaliah, 2020;Asyari & Abid, 2016;Asman & Muda, 2023;Fauzan et al, 2023;Rajafi et al, 2024;Nisa, 2021). In Islamic literature, interactions between women and men are taboo and need to be limited by religious law (Bennett & Tamale, 2017;Berthold, 2019;Eltantawi, 2017;Harvey, 2018;Reda & Amin, 2020).…”

The main aim of this article was to see the public space of Pesantren as an arena for negotiating Islamic moral ideas and modernity. The practice of dating in Islamic literature is linked to immoral action because it is contrary to Islamic teachings that prohibit relationships outside marriage. It has become an important part of Islamic moral education. Dating in Pesantren is prohibited, and it is a relationship outside marriage. However, there are still many students who develop romantic relationships with members of the opposite sex in the public spaces of Pesantren. Through ethnographic studies, researchers observed Santriwati’s dating practices and interviewed them to determine the moral basis for these actions. Based on these observations at the Pesantren Madrasah Ulumul Qur’an (MUQ) Langsa, the practice of dating was carried out by santriwati by hiding behind buildings and rooms in the Islamic boarding school. This secretive and tactical action was carried out not to confront the rules made by the ustadz but as part of a negotiation between obeying the rules and the choice to continue dating. The researcher concluded that, even though the Islamic boarding school public space is filled with moral values produced by kyai and ustadz, the students still can carry out actions outside the Islamic boarding school's ideas of morality.
