Dukun Dalam Perspektif Kitab Al-Halal Wal Haram Fi Al-Islami

An-Nawa : Jurnal Studi Islam June 26, 2023 Fikri Hailal, Zulkipli Lessy, S. Nuroh

This article examines shamanism and its legal status in Islam, focusing on occult beliefs that persist in some Muslim communities and are sometimes broadcast online. Using Karl Mannheim's sociology of knowledge and qualitative content analysis, the authors argue that shamanism—defined as claiming knowledge of the unseen—is permissible in Islam when it promotes righteousness and forbids evil, but unlawful when it leads to polytheism or heinous acts. The analysis draws on the book Al-Halal Wal Haram Fi Al-Islami to distinguish between acceptable and forbidden forms of shamanic practice, aiming to preserve monotheism without abolishing the original legal rulings.
