Islam and "Scientific" Economics

In the Pursuit of a New Paradigm

In an Islamic society, it is ethics that dominates and determines all behavior, including economic behavior. The Holy Koran emerges as the main source of all economic behavior and practices which are subject to the commands of Allah as stated in the Koran. Since Islam is a universal religion, the Islamic economic paradigm with its -scientific- Islamic economic theories has to be comprehensive as well as perfect in the sense of fairness, ethical values and fruitfulness. A universal Islamic economic system ought to have universally applicable economic laws acceptable by both, the Muslim and the non-Muslim world - meaning that when the word <I>Islamic is taken out of the equation; it should appeal to all societies and countries equally, regardless of their religious persuasion. The question now is; do Islamic economics offer such -scientific- economic theories? Surprisingly, there were no such theories at all. In fact, there was not even a theory of interest, the most frequently referred to subject in Islamic economics. This appeared to be a serious omission. The Holy sources may be more than sufficient for Muslims, but what about non-Muslims? Isn't it justified to expect Islamic -scientific- economic models and theories that are applicable to or able to guide non-Muslims?"

The Islamic economic paradigm with its scientific Islamic economic theories have to be comprehensive as well as perfect in the sense of fairness, ethical values and fruitfulness.

The Thistle and the Drone

How America's War on Terror Became a Global War on Tribal Islam

In the wake of the 9/11 attacks, the United States declared war on terrorism. More than ten years later, the results are decidedly mixed. Here world-renowned author, diplomat, and scholar Akbar Ahmed reveals an important yet largely ignored result of this war: in many nations it has exacerbated the already broken relationship between central governments and the largely rural Muslim tribal societies on the peripheries of both Muslim and non-Muslim nations. The center and the periphery are engaged in a mutually destructive civil war across the globe, a conflict that has been intensified by the war on terror. Conflicts between governments and tribal societies predate the war on terror in many regions, from South Asia to the Middle East to North Africa, pitting those in the centers of power against those who live in the outlying provinces. Akbar Ahmed's unique study demonstrates that this conflict between the center and the periphery has entered a new and dangerous stage with U.S. involvement after 9/11 and the deployment of drones, in the hunt for al Qaeda, threatening the very existence of many tribal societies. American firepower and its vast anti-terror network have turned the war on terror into a global war on tribal Islam. And too often the victims are innocent children at school, women in their homes, workers simply trying to earn a living, and worshipers in their mosques. Battered by military attacks or drone strikes one day and suicide bombers the next, the tribes bemoan, "Every day is like 9/11 for us." In The Thistle and the Drone, the third volume in Ahmed's groundbreaking trilogy examining relations between America and the Muslim world, the author draws on forty case studies representing the global span of Islam to demonstrate how the U.S. has become involved directly or indirectly in each of these societies. The study provides the social and historical context necessary to understand how both central governments and tribal societies have become embroiled in America's war. Beginning with Waziristan and expanding to societies in Central Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, and elsewhere, Ahmed offers a fresh approach to the conflicts studied and presents an unprecedented paradigm for understanding and winning the war on terror. The Thistle and the Drone was the 2013 Foreword Reviews Gold winner for Political Science.

patung para kudus, hal ini merupakan tanda-tanda kasat mata yang
melambangkan bahwa doa-doa kita bergabung dengan doa-doa para kudus

Dibalik Kisah-kisah Hacker Legendaris

Inilah dunia kami dunia electron dan switch, beauty of the baud. Kalian menyebut kami penjahat.. karena menggunakan layanan yang sudah ada tanpa membayar, padahal layanan itu seharusnya sangat murah jika tidak dikuasai oleh orang-orang rakus. Kami kalian sebut penjahat karena kami gemar menjelajah. Kami kalian sebut penjahat karena kami mengejar ilmu pengetahuan. Kami ada tanpa warna kulit, tanpa kebangsaan, tanpa bias agama tapi bagi kalian kami penjahat. Kami adalah penjaha.. sedangkan kalian lah yang membuat bom nuklir, mengobarkan peperangan, membunuh, berbuat curang, berbohong,dan berusaha membuat kami percaya bahwa itu semua demi kebaikan kami. Ya, aku adalah penjahat. Kejahatanku adalah keingintahuanku. Kejahatanku adalah menilai orang berdasarkan perkataan dan pikiran mereka, dan bukan berdasarkan penampilan mereka. Kejahatanku adalah menjadi lebih pintar dari kalian, sebuah dosa yang tak akan bisa kalian ampuni. Aku adalah hacker, dan inilah manifestoku. Kamu bisa menghentikan satu, tapi kau tak bisa menghentikan semuanya bagaimanapun juga, kami semua sama (The Mentor, 1986) -MediaKita-

MANIFESTO HACKER Ada semacam romantisme kenakalan remaja pada
budaya hacker. Napas-napas pemberontakan yang memikat, sama memikatnya
seperti Jim Morisson, Che Guevara, Soe Hok Gie, Chairil Anwar, Iwan Fals, atau
Eminem. Romantisme tersebut berasal dari idealisme kebebasan dan rasa ingin
tahu. Seperti tercermin dalam dokumen 'The Conscience of a Hacker' (Hati
Nurani Seorang Hacker) yang dituliskan seorang bernama The Mentor. Berikut
