Abstract

In the midst of mainstream theological schools established in the Islamic world: traditionalists (Sunni) and rationalists (Mu'tazila), Abbas turns out consistently defend traditional theology. In theological thinking, Abbas positioned parallel to al-Ash'arite classical theology (Ahl al-Sunnah wa ’lJamā’ah). He stressed all a round of God, revelation paced and use the reason is very little. He put God as absolute ruler, do as His Will. Therefore, theology of Siradjuddin Abbas is very strong hold on revelation and theocentric pattern, and everything begins and centered on God, good or bad all determined by God. Thus theology Siradjuddin Abbas less in line with modern thinking, which is progressive and forward the reason. In other words, theology of Siradjuddin Abbas less actual and contextual for the purposes of contemporary social reality if that expected from such thinking is an applicative conceptual thinking
