STRUKTUR NALAR ARAB-ISLAM MENURUT ABID AL-JABIRI
ABSTRACT: Al-Jabiri’s thought
renewal project focuses on epistemological critics on scientific traditional
framework of Arab-Islam. This is done by analyzing sociopolitical background of
the formulation process and structure of Arab-Islam’s logical reasoning, and
the entire structural working mechanism of Arab’s logical reasoning. According
to Al-Jabiri, Arab’s logical reasoning can be classified into three, i.e.
bayani, Irfani and burhani. Bayani is a pure Arab’s logical reasoning as it is
motivated by cognitive factor to interpret religious texts. Irfani becomes an
alternative epistemology for bayani in providing convincing conclusions. While
Burhani, is logical reasoning based on rationality. However, even though the
Arab’s logical reasoning could be distinguished into those three, Al-Jabiri
observes the domination of bayani on others, thus, the text and traditional
authorities are always dominating Arab-Islam civilization. Consequently, Arabic
Civilization is not creative-productive or poor in concepts and theories. The
solution AlJabiri proposes is to apply critism spirit that have been developed
in AndalusiaMaghrib, i.e. empirical rationale presented by Ibn Hazm and
Al-Syatibi in Fiqh, Ibnu Ruysd in Philosophy, Ibnu Khaldun in sociology, and
Ibn Madha alQurthubi in Arabic grammatical renewal.
