Examining the History of Divine Religion: Theological Relations of Judaism, Christianity and Islam according to William Montgomery Watt
View through CrossRef
This paper discusses the thoughts of Montgomery Watt about Islamic studies, especially Watt's opinion regarding the relationship between the three divine religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam). This study aims to show that not all orientalists are subjective in studying Islam. Watt, for example, in his research tries to be objective by taking sources from Islam itself. The research method used in this study is descriptive analysis, which is a qualitative research method concerning library research sources. Then the data was analyzed using Huberman & Miles data analysis, which went through three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions or verification. The study results show that Watt and Muslims have the same opinion regarding the theological relations of the divine religion, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The similarity is in terms of the essence of the samawi religion brought by Ibrahim, also called millah Ibrahim Hanifa.
Tulisan ini membahas mengenai pemikiran Montgomery Watt dalam kaitannya dengan kajian Islam, khususnya pendapat Watt mengenai hubungan antara ketiga agama samawi (Yahudi, Kristen dan Islam). Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menunjukkan bahwa tidak semua orientalis bersikap subyektif dalam mengkaji Islam. Watt misalnya yang dalam penelitiannya berusaha bersikap obyektif dengan mengambil sumber-sumber dari Islam itu sendiri. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam kajian ini ialah deskriptif-analisis, yaitu metode penelitian kualitatif dengan merujuk pada sumber-sumber kepustakaan (library research). Kemudian data dianalisis dengan menggunakan analisis data Huberman & Miles yang melewati tiga tahapan, yaitu reduksi data, penyajian data dan kesimpulan atau verifikasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Watt dan umat Islam memiliki pendapat yang sama mengenai relasi teologis agama samawi, Yahudi, Kristen dan Islam. Persamaan tersebut ialah dari segi esensi agama samawi yang dibawa oleh Ibrahim atau disebut juga millah Ibrahim Hanifa.
