Ethnoastronomy here refers to phenomenon like solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, and the lunar cycles, while maritime activity refers to the phenomenon of the tides, the waves, the wind, a bright and a dark moon, and so on. The question is, is it true that astronomical phenomenon causes changes to maritime activities? Does it also affect ocean life which should be taken into account by fishermen? To answer both of these questions, this study will only highlight studies and previous works related to the connection between astronomical phenomenon with maritime activity. Finally, this paper will conclude that astronomical phenomenon like solar eclipses, lunar eclipses and lunar cycles do cause changes to maritime activities such as tides, wave conditions, the wind, the light and dark moon and so on. Indirectly, all these factors affect ocean life and should be considered by fishermen, especially in order to firstly, determine their revenue and secondly, to ensure their own safety.

In the usual Social Science research, only the human mind serves as the basis for proofs and theory of knowledge (epistemology). The research would reject prophetic revelations. In Islam, however, there is a consensus that prophetic revelations must be placed as better proofs and theory of knowledge over the the human mind. As such, what are the positions of prophetic revelations and the human mind in Islamic research? To answer this question, logic is used as reference. Logic is the study of arguments based on human reasoning, as defined in Islam. Logic also serves as a method of determining the validity of proofs which can be used in an argument. The questions which arise then, are: What is the position of the human mind in Islamic research? What is the order of priority between the human mind and prophetic revelations in an Islamic research? To answer these questions, this paperwork will use literary research and textual analysis to analyse the positions of prophetic revelations and the human mind according to logic. This article will study the definitions of the human mind and prophetic revelation in Islam. Then the positions of the human mind and prophetic revelations will be analysed in a logical discussion, to serve as a method to be used in Islamic research. The use of logic is observed as having cleared the confusion in determining the positions of the human mind and prophetic revelations in Islamic research. How the prophetic revelations are used in Islamic research in accordance to the Islamic research method is also discussed. The results of this research found that logic approves of both the " naqli " and " aqli " proofs. The human mind is actually recognised as a legitimate instrument for proofs in Islam but it cannot take precedence over prophetic revelations. Instead, prophetic revelations serve an important role in Islamic research. However, certain methods must be followed when using the prophetic revelations in Islamic research in order for them to be valid. Abstrak Makalah ni tertumpu kepada perbincangan tentang kedudukan akal dan wahyu dalam penyelidikan berteraskan Islam. Dalam penyelidikan lazim Sains Kemasyarakatan, hanya akal menjadi sandaran untuk dalil dan sumber teori ilmu (epistemologi). Penyelidikan lazim ini menolak wahyu. Dalam Islam, disepakati bahawa wahyu mestilah diletakkan sebagai dalil dan sumber teori ilmu (epistemologi) yang utama mengatasi akal. Justeru, bagaimanakah kedudukan wahyu dan akal dalam penyelidikan berkaitan Islam? Bagi menjawab persoalan ini, ilmu mantik digunakan sebagai rujukan. Ilmu mantik merupakan ilmu yang menyusun berkenaan kaedah penaakulan dalam Islam. Mantik juga ada menyusun kaedah pendalilan yang boleh digunakan dalam berhujjah. Persoalannya apakah kedudukan akal dalam penyelidikan berteraskan Islam? Bagaimanakah kaedah penyelidikan Islam menyusun kedudukan akal dan wahyu dalam penyelidikan Islam? Bagi menjawab persoalan ini, kertas kerja ini akan menggunakan kajian perpustakaan dan analisis tekstual untuk menganalisis kedudukan wahyu dan akal menurut ilmu mantik. Makalah ini akan melihat definisi akal dan wahyu dalam Islam. Kemudian dianalisis kedudukan akal dan wahyu dalam perbincangan ilmu mantik untuk diguna pakai sebagai kaedah dalam penyelidikan berteraskan Islam. Mantik dilihat dapat merungkaikan kekeliruan antara kedudukan akal dengan wahyu dalam penyelidikan. Begitu juga dibincangkan bagaimanakah wahyu boleh digunakan dalam menjalankan penyelidikan berkaitan Islam menurut kaedah penyelidikan Islam. Hasil kajian ini mendapati bahawa ilmu mantik ada mengiktiraf dalil naqli dan dalil aqli. Akal sebenarnya mendapat pengiktirafan dalam Islam tetapi tidak melebihi kedudukan wahyu. Sebaliknya, wahyu memainkan peranan yang penting dalam menjalankan penyelidikan berkaitan Islam. Namun dalam menggunakannya terdapat kaedah yang tertentu dalam menggunakan wahyu tersebut. Makalah ini secara umumnya ingin melihat kedudukan wahyu dan akal dalam penyelidikan berteraskan Islam. Secara khususnya, kajian ini melihat bagaimana ilmu mantik menyusun kedudukan wahyu dan akal dalam susunan penghujahan. Susunan kedudukan wahyu dan akal dalam ilmu mantik perlu dilihat kerana susunan dalam ilmu mantik oleh itu boleh dijadikan asas kepada susunan wahyu dan akal dalam penyelidikan berteraskan Islam Secara lebih khusus, makalah ini akan membincangkan definisi akal dan definisi wahyu. Setelah itu, analisis dibuat ke atas kedudukan wahyu dan akal dalam susunan penghujahan ilmu mantik. Setelah mendapat gambaran berkenaan wahyu dan akal, barulah analisis dibuat dalam menyatakan kedudukan wahyu dan akal dalam penyelidikan. Oleh yang demikian, makalah ni akan menyentuh definisi akal, definisi wahyu, wahyu dan akal menurut ilmu mantik dan analisis kedudukan wahyu dan akal dalam penyelidikan.

As the challenges confronting Islamic thinkers are diverse and manifold, there is an urgent need for an advocacy approach that is premised on the rational application of Logic in Islamic Discourse. Nevertheless, the current approach of totally relying on Logic as a tool to elucidate the problems and controversies besetting the Ummah is replete with numerous shortcomings as evidenced by the advent of deviationist ideologies inimical to Islam such as pluralism, liberalism, and feminism. This paper purports to examine the nature of Logic within Islamic Discourse and how it is applied to not only portray Islam but to also delineate and clarify its adequacy in addressing contemporary issues and controversies bedeviling the Ummah. In seeking answers to these questions, the paper first sought to explicate upon the nature of Logic within the realm of knowledge. Next, it analyzed the use of logic in contemporary Islamic discourse. A qualitative approach which basically encompasses library research was utilized to obtain secondary data regarding the use of logic in contemporary Islamic discourse. Subsequently, the collated data was subjected to textual analysis. The findings reveal that there are at least two approaches that underpin the use of logic in Islamic discourse, namely, the reason (aql) based and the revelation (wahyu) based approaches with both approaches having their respective outcomes. Based on the analyzed data, the study recommends that the application of logic in contemporary Islamic Discourse should be premised upon on a hybrid approach named Contemporary Islamic Logic Approach (CILA) that draws its synergy from the revelation based approach but manifests itself via aql based arguments whilst simultaneously complying with four basic rules i.e., possessing a clear Islamic epistemology and tasawur, utilizing Islamic reasoning approaches, strengthening the Islamic framework and finally, emphasizing the means aspect of Western Logic rather than its end.

Malaysia and Indonesia use the rukyah (sighting of the moon) and hisab (mathematical calculations), Singapore uses the hisab while Brunei only uses the rukyah method. These differences are due to the different basis for using a certain method to determine the arrival of Ramadan and Syawal. The basis here refers to religious references and forms of istidlal (inferences). The question is, what religious references are used to substantiate the adoption of the rukyah method in Brunei? What is their form of istidlal based on the religious references? To answer all these questions this study has two objectives. Firstly, it intends to determine the religious references that act as the basis for using the rukyah method in Brunei. Secondly, to analyse the different forms of istidlal based on the religious references. In order to achieve these objectives, this qualitative study used library research and expert interview methods for collecting data. All the data were analysed using the content analysis method. Lastly, this study concluded that religious references from the al-Qur'an and Hadith used as a basis for applying the rukyah method in Brunei is similar to the religious references used as a basis for applying rukyah and hisab in other South East Asian countries. The only difference is the various forms of istidlal.

To understand it, a researcher will make observations and built varient theories. The question is, can a researcher conducting a research on Islam and Muslims understand social phenomenon and construct a theory from the Qur`an? Does the Qur’an discuss about social phenomenon? If the answer is positive, how does the Qur’an discuss it? Is it sufficient to build a theory on social phenomenon? This paper attempts to seek answers to these questions. Firstly, it attemps to investigate the Qur’anic verses that refer to social pnenomenon. Secondly, it attempts to deliberate on the possibility of constructing a theory from those Qur`anic verses. For these purposes, a textual analysis will be adopted. In particular, the analysis is made from the book Qasas al- Quran (Stories in Qur’an) authored by Solah ‘Abdul Fattah al - Khalidi. It will be shown that the Qur’anic verses do discuss social phenomena. In addition, the Qur’anic verses simultaneously mention about the factors of a community’s successes or failures. At least three different contributions in the understanding of social phenomena have been traced. First, the Qur'an provides information about the nature and character of social life in the past. Second, the Qur'an improves social metaphysical knowledge associated with the creation and evolution of human problems. Third, the Qur'an helps to formulate and discover social laws.

Reliability of data plays an important role in conducting research. It influences the assessment of the data and determines the confidence of the results of the research. The question is, can the method of reliability in conventional research measures and analyzes the reliability of data in Islamic-related research? Or is there any instrument derived from the knowledge of Islam itself that can be used to measure the reliability of data? Does mantiq actually have any instrument to measure the reliability of data? To answer these questions, this paper focuses on two discussions. First, the identification of the reliability of data according to mantiq. Second, the analyzation and application of the reliability of data in accordance to the mantiq in Islamic Research Methodology. This paper uses library research and content analysis. It finds out that in mantiq, there are four main instruments that could determine the level of reliability of data. They are Yaqin, Zann, Shakk and Batil. Out of these four, Yaqin is the highest, followed sequently by Zann, Shakk and Batil. The level of reliability of data is based on evidences. The stronger the evidence, the higher is the level of reliability. According to the mantiq’s reliability of data instruments, a data can be in the level of Yaqin if the source is from al-Qur’an and hadith even without empirical evidence. In contrary, Zann and Shakk only rely on either theoretical or empirical evidences or both, while batil does not has any evidence at all. All four levels of mantiq’s reliability of data explain that research on Islam and Muslim consider both, the al-Qur’an and the hadith which contains tangible and intangible evidences and empirical proofs which contains tangible evidences. This paper also suggests that all four levels of mantiq’s reliability of data instrument can be considered as a basis to build an Islamic measurement scale.

Among the subjects considered as religious matter is the determination of the arrival of Shawwal. In determining the beginning of Shawwal in Brunei Darussalam, there surely is a predetermined SOP. The question is what is the SOP in determining the arrival of Shawwal in Brunei Darussalam? Under which enactment is it allocated? Who is involved in executing the SOP? To answer all of these questions, this study has two main objectives. First, to identify the SOP of determining the arrival of Shawwal in Brunei Darussalam; second, to analyze the application of the SOP in determining the arrival of Shawwal in Brunei Darussalam. In order to achieve these objectives, this qualitative study adopted the method of literature review and interview of experts in collecting data. All data were analyzed using content analysis method. Finally, this paper concludes that the determination of the arrival of Shawwal is based on Mimbar Fatwa 5 Negara Brunei Darussalam, and allocated under 29 of the Syariah Courts Act 1998. The Chief Syari’e Judge is responsible in the rukyah of the new moon with the help of the Syariah Judges, Officers of the Survey Department, Ministry of Development and the Officials of the Ministry of Religious Affairs. Because Brunei Darussalam used the rukyah method solely, it has its own SOP in accordance to the principle of fatwa and the allocated act.

It originates from two basic questions. Firstly, is scientific criteria of social research adequate to contribute to the construction of an holistic Social Sciences? Secondly, what are the challenges and implications of the “scientificity” of the Social Sciences? In general, the concentration of the mainstream social research has been more on the scientific perspective.
Observable facts, proven evidences, empirical and measurable evidences are the main manifestations of this scientific perspective. Such a “scientificity” has been developed through conventional research methodology. The problem is, could social research be an holistic research methodology only by concentrating on the scientific realm? If intangible realm such as spirituality is included, is the conventional research methodology posesses adequate tools of analysis in understanding the intangibles? This paper intends to answer these questions and observe the challenges and implications faced by the scientific
perspective. For these purposes, a textual analysis will be adopted. It will be shown that scientificity of social research is not a sufficient way to understand an holistic Social Sciences. It is based on some of the challenges such as for instance the question of how to observe the unseen, and quantifying the unquantifiable. From the challenges, it will cause certain implications that will be discussed in this paper.

Ethnoastronomy here refers to phenomenon like solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, and the lunar cycles, while maritime activity refers to the phenomenon of the tides, the waves, the wind, a bright and a dark moon, and so on. The question is, is it true that astronomical phenomenon causes changes to maritime activities? Does it also affect ocean life which should be taken into account by fishermen? To answer both of these questions, this study will only highlight studies and previous works related to the connection between astronomical phenomenon with maritime activity. Finally, this paper will conclude that astronomical phenomenon like solar eclipses, lunar eclipses and lunar cycles do cause changes to maritime activities such as tides, wave conditions, the wind, the light and dark moon and so on. Indirectly, all these factors affect ocean life and should be considered by fishermen, especially in order to firstly, determine their revenue and secondly, to ensure their own safety.
