One of way of those solving is with Islamic studies. In Islamic studies, there are two paradigms. First, orthodox perspective, namely with orthodoxy studies to be Islam as dogma position. The perspective of it was transcendental perspective. Second, orthopraxy studies in where Islam was put as a histories reality with empiric perspective. The relation between orthodoxy studies (normative studies of Islam) and orthopraxy studies (histories studies of Islam) is parallel. In fact, only normative studies that was studied by majority of Moslems society. It’s good for belief graduate.
