HADHARIAH : PENDEKATAN FILOSOFIS MENGHADAPI PROBLEM DIKOTOMI ILMU DALAM PENDIDIKAN ISLAM DI INDONESIA

Abstract

There are some Islamic education problems which generate dichotomy between religious sciences and general sciences. They are 1) weak vision; 2) emphasizing on individual piety causing technological backwardness; 3) scientific dichotomous; and 4) the mindset of normative-deductive. To overcome them, it is necessary to do a review of education reformation philosophically, epistemologically and theologically to realize the Islamic education in accordance with revelation guidance. As one of the efforts to improve Islamic education, this paper presents the philosophy of Hadhariyah (civilization philosophy) based on revelation demands. This Islamic study area divided into; the hadhara al-nash, hadhara al-'ilm, and hadhara al-falsafah. Philosophy of Hadhariyah emphasises the integrity between divinity (theocentric) dimension and humanitarian (anthropocentric) dimension, which are diametrically different from general philosophy that only grounded in human values. Hadhariyah philosophy recognizes something real, supernatural, physical, and metaphysical and it views the importance role of revelation, and moral values in education. Meanwhile, philosophy in general, limited by symptoms seen and captured by the senses empirically. Hence, Hadhariyah philosophy considers that acquisition of knowledge indicated to attain Allah SWT pleasure (science for mardhatillah) more than just knowledge for science
