ONTOLOGY CONCEPTUALIZATION AND HADITH DOMAIN: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW

Abstract

Studies on hadith have been widely explored as the hadith act as the second source after the Quran for reference by Muslims. Among the focus of the study of hadith is mainly on the sanad, but the study of the hadith’s matan is no less important for research to understand the content of the hadith. Ontology is a study that refers to the reality that is studied and is also referred to as one of the philosophical studies of knowledge. Ontologically, this paradigm places the text of a hadith centred and in a normative state. Realizing that ontology can represent a clear form of knowledge or repository, standard and simple, researchers have tried to build ontology based on Islamic knowledge consisting of the Quran, hadith and others. This article aims to produce a systematic literature review on the conceptualization of ontology and hadith domain. The systematic literature review (SLR) writing process was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis) framework. This study contributes knowledge and clear understanding on the conceptualization of ontology and hadith domain by referring to previous studies.
