Abstract
This research stems from concerns about the view that humans have free will over themselves. Sam Harris, a contemporary thinker, neuroscientist, and scientist, firmly states that humans do not have free will as believed by compatibilists. The free will that many people consider to exist is an illusion. Interestingly, Sam Harris uses a neurological approach in criticizing the view of free will. Sam Harris's view on the absence of human free will has received crossopinions from great thinkers, especially in America. Views in favor of his thinking consider Harris's arguments to be quite realistic and scientific in questioning the reasons behind human actions. Meanwhile, opposing views state that Sam Harris ignores the complexity and uniqueness of human experience, as well as the important role of choice and responsibility in life. This research is a library research study using the documentation method. This means utilizing written sources as the main reference. The primary data sources in this study use Sam Harris's original books titled, Free Will, The Moral Landscape: How Science Determine Human Values, Islam and Future Tolerance" and Waking up. While secondary sources utilize written references related to Sam Harris's views on free will. The collected data is then analyzed with a philosophical approach using the theories of Determinism and Indeterminism. There are three problem formulations proposed in this study. First, What is meant by the illusion of free will? Second, How does Sam Harris criticize the Illusion of Free Will? Third, What is the Relevance of Sam Harris's Thought in the discourse of Modern Islamic Theology? The findings of this study are as follows; First, Harris argues that free will is an illusion. Although humans feel they have choices, their actions are actually influenced by biological factors, environment, and life experiences. Choices that appear to be free are actually the result of these influences, whether conscious or not. Second, Harris falls into the category of hard (extreme) determinism and neurologically, the idea of free will fails to answer the existence of human free will. Human will is actually influenced by neurophysiological processes in the human brain. These neurophysiological brain processes are influenced by many factors such as genetics, environment, past memories and others. The idea of compatibilism according to Sam Harris fails in psychological-neurological facts. For example, the "Compatibilist" view which states that neural activity is also part of human free will is clearly wrong. This is because humans cannot be responsible for something that they are not aware of its influence. Saying that humans have free will means violating scientific facts in the process of human experience. And the perspective on morals must be regulated. According to Sam Harris, humans do not have free will, meaning humans are not morally responsible. However, punishment for crimes still must be carried out, with the reason that the crime does not harm others and not because of their "free will". Third, Sam Harris's thoughts on free will have relevance in the discourse of Modern Islamic theology such as the problem of fatalism in the perspective of Islamic renewal, and also understanding a new paradigm in viewing the problem of human actions in the context of Islamic Theology.
