Abstract

The concept of ukhuwah (brotherhood) is one of the fundamental teachings of Islam that serves as the basis for social solidarity and harmony. However, the development of contemporary society, characterized by identity plurality, social polarization, and digital communication transformation, requires a reinterpretation of the concept to maintain its relevance. This study aims to analyze the construction of the meaning of ukhuwah in QS. al-Ḥujurāt [49]:10, identify its transformation within the exegetical tradition, and recontextualize it through a socio-humanistic perspective. This research employs a qualitative library research method. Primary data were obtained from QS. al-Ḥujurāt [49]:10 and classical as well as contemporary Qur’anic exegeses, while secondary data were collected from books, journal articles, and related studies. Data were analyzed using descriptive-analytical methods through thematic interpretation (tafsīr mawḍū‘ī) and a socio-humanistic approach. The findings reveal that the concept of ukhuwah has evolved from a normative-theological paradigm to a socio-humanistic paradigm. Classical exegetes generally understood ukhuwah as a faith-based bond aimed at maintaining internal Muslim unity, whereas contemporary interpretations expand its meaning as an instrument of social cohesion capable of strengthening solidarity, social trust, and conflict resolution in plural societies. The study further demonstrates that the recontextualization of ukhuwah makes QS. al-Ḥujurāt [49]:10 relevant as a foundation for social ethics and communication in the digital era. Therefore, ukhuwah functions not only as a religious identity but also as a social paradigm that supports the creation of an inclusive, harmonious, and civilized society.
