At the 2nd MAFIS Dr. Hazizan Md. Noon as the Dean of International Institute of Islamic Thought and Civilisation (ISTAC-IIUM) delivered a speech with topic: "Re-Grounding Sociology in Revelation". The participants were all excited to learn new insights from Dr. Hazizan Md. Noon, we are welcomed to share their insight or ask question in this forum:
Q1) Ahmad Musonnif : I am researching the determination of the beginning of the Islamic month among Muslims. Muslims differ on whether the method of determining the beginning of the month of Islan is by looking at the Moon as explained in the hadith or by astronomical calculations, because there are those who think that the spirit of the Qur'an related to the Islamic Calendar is by astronomical calculations, as mentioned in Surah Yunus verse 5. My question is, how to use the maqasidi approach to this object.
Q2) Dicky Cahya Nurfazri, S.Pd. : Thank you, Professor. How can the Maqasid al-Waḥy framework be practically applied in social research on Islamic education, especially in studying how Islamic values are transmitted through local cultural traditions?
Q3) Md Atif Ali : Respected Prof. Dr. Hazizan Md. Noon, What are the major challenges in developing Tawhidic Sociology as an independent academic discipline?
Q4) Yedi Purwanto : May I ask how the Quran provides guidance to humanity in navigating the complex problems of life, particularly when viewed through the lens of the concept of Tawhid that you have explained? Thank you
Q5) Selamat, Rosmawati : My opinion, understanding maqasid shariah and maqasid Al-wahy in every muslim is very important in facing political challenges, technology advancement and global economic impact to daily lives. How these concepts and knowledge can be communicated and instill to every muslim as important guidance to life.
Q6) Muhammad Umair : Respected sir How can I operationalise a Tawhidic-Maqasid framework in education like you did for sociology without it becoming either secular or just superficially 'Islamized?
Q7) Mubarak Yusuff : My question for Dr. Hazizah, kindly recommend a book I can download to have a full understanding of Islamic anthropology or the contribution of Islamic scholars to anthropological theories and application. Thank you, Sir.
Q8) Alya Farhanah : Prof Dr Hazizan, how can Tawḥīdic epistemology serve as a foundational framework for integrating revealed knowledge in public policy research?
All audience are also welcome to ask question in this forum. Thank you.
