KONSTRUKSI PARADIGMATIS PEMIKIRAN TEOLOGI ISLAM KRITIS
ABSTRACT: An important
question in this paper is how is paradigm construction of critical theological
thought. To understand its construction, this paper shows paradigm shifting of
thought of Islamic theology since classic era to contemporary. The shifting is
since Khawarij growth that discuss about big sin, unbeliever, believer, heaven,
and hell. Now, theological thought had grown and entered in various scientific
paradigm. These themes are very variational too, even new thing that is nothing
before. Critical theological thoughts belong to paradigms or new world views
that is important for contemporary era. Critical theological thought in Indonesia
had been stated by critical intelectuals such as Abdurrahman Wahid, Muslim
Abdurrahman, Masdar F. Mas ’udi, and Kuntowijoyo. Paradigm of critical Islamic
theology is an emancipatory thought on modern culture and society, for example
critique of economics, politics, and structure. This thought starts from
reaction of unjust social system. This thought starts from point of suffering
in praxis. Its objective is to build social structure that freed human being
from every oppression. Critical theological thought did not separate theory
and practice, knowledge and action, theoritical rationality and practical
rationality. This thought reflects critically something practice in historical
sosial life.
