Metodologi Asya'irah dalam Relasi Akal dan Naql: Telaah Kritis Ahlus Sunnah
Keywords:
Asya’irah, Akal dan Naql, Takwil dan Tafwidh, Ahlus Sunnah, Teologi IslamAbstract
This study examines the Ashʿarite methodology in reconciling reason (ʿaql) and revelation (naql) and analyzes critiques from the Ahl al-Sunnah perspective. Using a qualitative library research approach, this study explores Ashʿarite theological thought, particularly concerning the interpretation of divine attributes and the role of reason in religious understanding. The findings indicate that Ashʿarites generally prioritize rational considerations when an apparent conflict arises between reason and revealed texts, mainly through the methods of taʾwīl and tafwīḍ. While maintaining respect for revelation, this approach has been criticized by Ahl al-Sunnah scholars for placing reason in a position that may influence the interpretation of scriptural texts. The study concludes that, according to the Salafī perspective, reason should function as a means of understanding revelation rather than as an authority over it. This research contributes to the study of Islamic epistemology by highlighting the importance of harmonizing reason and revelation while preserving the primacy of revelation in matters of faith.
