TELAAH TEMATIK DAN KONTEKSTUAL TERHADAP HADIS-HADIS TENTANG INTERAKSI ISLAM DAN YAHUDI
ABSTRACT: In the era of
globalization—characterized by a rapid flow of information, people, and goods
with no limits—the issue of multiculturalism has been to be a challenge to
Muslims. Intercultural meeting is something unavoidable. In this respect, the
issue of the relation of Islam and Judaism is to be a crucial one. Among
Muslims, the relationship has been colored by negative perception especially if
it is justified by the verses of the Koran and the hadith of the Prophet.
Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia (HTI) is among the Muslim groups that have a negative
perception of the relationship. This study examines the traditions of the
Prophet pertaining the relationship of Muslims and Jews thematically and
contextually, especially the social construction of HTI Ponorogo on these
traditions. Thematic and contextual study of the traditions of the
relationship of Muslims and Jews shows that the Prophet’s attitude toward Jews,
or vice versa, varies from negative to positive, appreciative. This evidence
suggests that such attitude, especially negative one, is not a permanent
attitude. Instead, these attitudes had been temporarily and conditionally
formed. Thus, based on the traditions of the Prophet, a negative permanent
attitude toward Jews is not theologically justified. Meanwhile, the
examination of the social construction of Ponorogo branch of Hizbut Tahrir
Indonesia shows various theological types: rigid-textualist and
soft-textualist. The first group see the hadiths of the relation of Islam and
Judaism as a source of Sharia which should be implemented in a fixed manner.
The second group have the attitude that is consistent with the first group, by
giving a space for a potential change of the teaching due to the changes of
circumstances.
