Seminar Islam, Falsafah & Ideologi

At the start of the Easter Break, HAKIM held a talk at UQ with the title "Seminar Islam, Falsafah & Ideologi". The day-long seminar was delivered by Ustaz Zulkifli bin Ismail, principal of Pondok Baitul Qurro' wal Fuqoha'. The event was organized into three, info-packed slots which built upon one another based on a book, "Ancaman Bahaya Sekularisme" written by the Ustaz himself.

Here's what some of our participants had to say.

"A very good topic to be discussed. Nothing like the conventional Islamic talk. Tahniah lah HAKIM boleh organize something like this." - Qistina -

"For me, the topic discussed in the seminar is important as it is interesting. Muslims today are not just attacked by bombs and drones but also face ideological battles everywhere. To quote the American scholar, Sheikh Hamza Yusuf, "If you did not philosophize, someone will philosophize it for you'. This seminar is a great way to expose Muslims to such topic and can act as a stepping stone for us to study more. HAKIM did a great job with this seminar and i hope they can expand more on such initiatives." - Helmi -

"Secara keseluruhannya, seminar yang bagus, pengisian yang unik, ala bedah buku. Akan datang boleh tak HAKIM jemput wakil dari Universiti Terbuka Anak Muda (UTAM)?" - Azhar -

"Program ini merupakan sesuatu yang berjaya kerana mampu membawa para peserta dan penceramah untuk turut mengupas isu-isu falsafah dan ideologi meskipun ilmu ini berada di tahap kompleks kerana memerlukan masa yang lama untuk memahami konteks secara holistik. Harapan saya agar program sebegini dapat dianjurkan oleh HAKIM pada masa yang akan datang, serta menarik lebih ramai lagi dari pelbagai latar belakang pendidikan, termasuklah golongan pelajar pasca siswazah. Seperti kata penceramah, kita perlu melahirkan ikon dalam bidang ini untuk memartabatkan Islam sebagai satu kerangka yang lebih sempurna berbanding mana-mana ideologi." - Fitri -

"Alhamdulillah. An awesome talk regarding Islam, Ideology and Philosophy! As a psychology student learning in a western country, I really need a clear understanding about this issue. Thanks HAKIM for organizing this event. Hope that there will be more awesome events like this later." - Azzura -

"Memahami bahawasanya penggunaan akal adalah 'dependant variable' amat penting agar kita dapat menentukan kerangka fikir kita. Kerangka fikir Islam adalah sebuah neraca yang akan mengikat kita dengan ketauhidan pada Allah. Kerangka fikir mana yang akan menjadi penentu neraca kita?" - Syakirah -

We hoped our participants walked out of the hall well-informed and enlightened on issues pertaining to philosophy, Islamic thought and faith. To those who pulled through the entire day, MashaAllah! (content was pretty heavy okay). May He guide us all.

See you in our next event InshaAllah!
