URGENSI RELASI TRADISI DAN MODERNITAS DALAM PEMBAHARUAN PEMIKIRAN ISLAM MUHAMMAD ‘ABID AL-JABIRI

Abstract

The tradition  is something that is present and accompanies contemporary ours, which comes from the past, or could be said of all that is human related to aspects of thought in Islamic civilization, ranging from the teaching of the doctrinal, shari'ah, language, literature, art, pen, and Sufism. Modern not to break with the past but rather to upgrade the attitude and stance by assuming the pattern of our relationship with tradition in the level of modern culture. The relation of tradition and modernity according to Al-Jabiri was keeping the good old traditions and take a new tradition better. That is, the tradition was reconstructed to internalize the contemporary thoughts. Al-Jabiri strongly emphasized epistemology of contemporary Arab thought (bayani, Irfani, Burhani) as a way to confront modernity. The important contribution of the idea is to introduce to us the various constructs reasoning developed in the Islamic world.
