3. Results and Discussion
Understanding Wahdatul 'Ulum
Etymologically, Wahdatal-'Ulum comes from the words "wahdat" which means one and
'ulum " which means sciences, the plural of the word 'ilm . The concept of wahdat (unity) al-
'ulum basically cannot be separated from the concept of wahdat al-wujud, because
epistemologically, existence in the sense of something discovered is the source of knowledge.
Imam Al-Ghazali believes that knowledge is knowing something according to the thing itself.
This means that knowledge is the knowledge that a person has about an object or the knowledge
itself correctly. The truth contained in this knowledge is correspondence, due to the
correspondence between the subject's knowledge and the objective conditions of the known
object. There are two ways to know an object that is known correctly, namely; First , through
observations that the subject makes of the object. Second , through the process of information
obtained from the Almighty (Allah) either directly or through the intermediary of messengers
and servants of Allah SWT. According to Parluhutan, wahdatul 'ulum is the totality of knowledge
that has joined in a harmonious network in a unit that is related and complementary. The
knowledge that has been integrated is not only between science and religious knowledge, but
includes all knowledge, starting from spiritual knowledge, religion, ethics, social, cultural,
humanities, science, philosophy, to applied knowledge. (Ritonga 2022).
According to Saidurrahman, the meaning of wahdatul'ulum is that in fact all knowledge,
both general and religious, comes from Allah SWT and is given to all humans so that they can
be taught and applied (Syahrin Harahap 2019). The conclusion from the explanation above is
that Wahdatul 'Ulum is an idea that combines religious knowledge and general knowledge into
one interrelated whole. All knowledge comes from Allah SWT and is given to humans to study
and apply so that they are closer to Him. In contrast to the Western approach which tends to
differentiate scientific disciplines, this approach emphasizes the importance of integration and
synergy between various scientific disciplines. Therefore, Wahdatul 'Ulum strives to realize a
complete and consistent understanding of knowledge.
Understanding Family Conflict
The term conflict comes from the Latin verb, confligere, which means to clash with each
other or all forms of collision, incompatibility, incompatibility, conflict, fighting, opposition and
antagonistic or conflicting interactions. This word was absorbed into English to become conflict,
which means a fight, a collision, a struggle, a controversy, an opposition of interest, opinions of
purposes (Asy'ari 2017). The definition of conflict in the General Indonesian Dictionary is
disagreement or dispute. According to Winardi, conflict arises when the goals, points of view,
or feelings of oneself or another person cannot be reconciled and can lead to hostility or hostile
relationships (Dhini and Sulfinadia 2020).
Conflict is also called a relationship between two or more parties (individuals or groups)
with different goals or interests. Individuals or groups usually initiate conflict due to
incompatibility or disagreement about the goals to be met. Clinton defined conflict as an
