Konsep Shamanism Dalam Hadith dan Implikasinya Terhadap Fenomena Perbomohan Kontemporari di Kelantan

e-Jurnal Penyelidikan dan Inovasi September 25, 2025 Khairulnazrin Nasir, Khadher Ahmad, Ahmad Zahiruddin Mohd Zabidi et al.

Hadith clearly prohibits practices involving polytheism (shirk), divination (kahānah), soothsaying (‘irrāfah), and sorcery that contradict the principle of monotheism (tawḥīd). Although shamanistic healing practices in Kelantan have undergone transformation, including attempts at “Islamization,” elements still conflict with Islamic teachings. A framework based on authentic hadith is proposed to distinguish permitted from prohibited practices, particularly regarding creed and worship. This analysis contributes to hadith studies and Islamic anthropology in Malaysia and provides a theoretical basis for policymakers to develop guidelines for traditional healers, thereby protecting public creed from practices contrary to Islamic teachings.

Practice of Shamanism Among Ethnic Muslim Religion In Pitas, Sabah: Assessment According Islamic Perspective

Journal of contemporary Islamic studies November 1, 2022 Khairulnazrin Nasir, Rahim Kamarul Zaman, Muhammad Adam Abd. Azid et al.

Shamanistic beliefs and practices persist among Muslims in Pitas, Sabah, where some community members engage in activities considered superstitious or polytheistic, such as worship rituals and black magic. This qualitative study, based on interviews with seven senior citizens and local figures, documents how indigenous ethnic groups in the district maintain these traditions despite their Islamic faith. The authors call for attention from religious agencies, community leaders, and preachers to preserve authentic faith.
