Answer 1

1. Studi Islam mencakup pengkajian ajaran agama Islam dan pengaruhnya pada budaya dan masyarakat Muslim.
2. Muslim yang taat melihat Islam sebagai norma dan ideal. Para ilmuwan, baik Muslim dan Non-Muslim, melihat Islam sebagai subjek studi atau lambang fokus penelitian mereka. Sedangkan masyarakat umum di barat, sebagai orang luar, memiliki persepsi berbeda mengenai Islam, yang mereka lihat sebagai asing.
3. Perbedaan antara Islam normatif dan Islam aktual adalah bahwa Islam normatif mengatur tentang norma dan nilai yang diakui oleh masyarakat sebagai bentuk dari petunjuk-petunjuk yang ilahi. Sedangkan “Islam Aktual” mencakup sejumlah praktik dan gagasan yang sebenarnya sudah ada dan diikuti atau dipraktekkan di banyak komunitas Muslim degan variasi waktu dan tempat yang berbeda-beda.
4. Kita perlu mempertahankan data perbedaan antara praktik dan ideal dalam Islam tidak hanya untuk tujuan analisis dan pemahaman, tetapi juga untuk mencegah pembuatan persamaan atau perbandingan yang salah antara hal yang negatif dari satu agama dengan hal yang ideal dan baik pada agama lainnya.
5. Saya dapat menyimpulkan bahwa penelitian tentang Islam bukan sekadar pengkajian ajaran agama, tetapi juga pengaruhnya terhadap budaya dan masyarakat, serta perbedaan interpretasi dan praktik yang terjadi. Keberadaan data mengenai keanekaragaman dalam praktik dan ideal juga penting guna mencegah pembandingan yang tak tepat dan memberikan gambaran lebih komprehensif tentang fenomena yang dipelajari.

Answer 2

1. Dalam paragraf pertama, studi Islam melibatkan pengkajian ajaran agama Islam dan pengaruhnya pada budaya dan masyarakat Muslim. Makna istilah "Islam" dapat berbeda-beda tergantung siapa yang menggunakan, mulai dari Muslim yang setia yang menganggapnya sebagai suatu norma dan ideal, para ilmuwan (Muslim dan Non-Muslim) yang beranggapan Islam mengacu pada suatu subjek studi atau lambang fokus penelitian mereka, hingga masyarakat barat non-Muslim yang menciptakan persepsi berbeda mengenai apa yang mereka lihat sebagai asing.
2. Tiga pemikiran tersebut adalah bagaimana pandangan orang Muslim yang taat, para ilmuwan, serta masyarakat non-Muslim terhadap Islam.
3. Soal meminta pembedaan antara Islam normatif dan Islam aktual. Islam normatif dijelaskan sebagai norma dan nilai yang diakui oleh masyarakat yang bersandar pada petunjuk ilahi. Sedangkan Islam aktual adalah bentuk dan gerakan, praktek, dan gagasan yang sudah ada di banyak komunitas muslim dengan berbagai variasi waktu dan tempat.
4. Abstract perlu mempertahankan perbedaan antara praktik dan ideal, fakta dan makna ideal dari data agama Islam untuk tujuan analisis dan pemahaman, dan menghindari perbandingan antara negatif dalam satu agama dengan ideal di agama lain.
5. Penutup, kita diminta merangkum dari hasil teks.
