Ustaz Akrama Hatta added to the row of STIBA Makassar lecturers with doctoral degrees after passing the Open Dissertation Examination (Doctoral Promotion) which was held online Tuesday (11/24/2020). The graduate student of UIN Alauddin Makassar successfully defended his dissertation entitled “Muhammad Syahrur’s Istinbat Method Problem (Critical Study of Nazariyyah al-Hudud’s Framework in the Problem of Clothing)”.

The board of examiners for the open dissertation exam consists of seven UINAM internal examiners led by Dr. H. Andi Aderus, Lc., M.A. as Deputy Director of the UINAM Postgraduate Program. While the external examiner is the Director of the Graduate University of Darussalam (Unida) Gontor Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hamid Fahmy Zarkasyi, M.A., M.Phil ..

When asked by an external examiner about Muhammad Syahrur’s most fatal mistake, this Makassar STIBA lecturer explained that in the matter of clothing, Syahrur insisted on interpreting the word of Allah,

يا بني آدم قد أنزلنا عليكم لباسا يواري سوءاتكم وريشا ولباس التقوى ذلك خير ذلك من آيات الله لعلهم يذكرون

“O son of Adam, verily We have lowered to you clothes to cover your genitals and beautiful clothes for adornment. And the clothes of piety are the best. This is part of the signs of Allah’s power, hopefully they will always remember. ” (Surah Al-A’raf: 26).

Shahrur said that this verse does not talk about the origin of humans who have come down to it by the shari’a of clothing. The first word libas (clothing) in the verse is “clothes to cover your genitals”, interpreted by Shahrur as “clothes of piety”. As a result, Syahrur, according to Ustaz Akrama, fell into error.

“Muhammad Syahrur does not understand the use of an Arabic dictionary. For the word “libas” which is isolated, Syahrur was translated by means of a majesty, even though the true meaning is the true meaning. Shahrur, go out and leave his antisinonymity theory. Supposedly, the first libas is libas alhaqiqi, the second libas are spiritual ones, namely libasuttaqwa, “explained Ustaz Akrama.
