The Qur’anic Concept of Ownership Over the Land of Jerusalem: A Thematic Tafsir Study of Human Civilization
type: item
description: This study addresses the scholarly problem of the use of religious texts as a basis for territorial legitimization over Jerusalem in contemporary historical-political discourse. While numerous exegetical studies discuss the city’s sanctity and prophetic history, there remains no systematic conceptual formulation of a Qur’anic model of ownership and sovereignty over the territory. This absence constitutes the research gap addressed in this article. Employing a qualitative method through thematic exegesis (tafsir mawduʿi) grounded in conceptual analysis, the study examines Qur’anic verses related to al-arḍ, al-arḍ al-muqaddasah, and al-masjid al-aqṣa. These verses are analyzed in light of classical and contemporary interpretations and reconstructed to identify patterns of legitimacy, conditions of inheritance (warathah), the concept of istikhlaf, and mechanisms of mandate revocation in prophetic history. The findings reveal that the Qur’an articulates a theocentric and conditional concept of ownership: the earth belongs to God, while human authority constitutes a moral trusteeship subject to ethical evaluation and possible withdrawal. The study’s novelty lies in demonstrating that the Qur’an not only rejects ethnically grounded territorial claims but also corrects genealogical claims over Prophet Abraham as a foundation of territorial legitimacy by affirming that those closest to Abraham are Prophet Muhammad and those who uphold his monotheistic faith. Theoretically, this article proposes the model of Divine Conditional Sovereignty, a framework of delegated and morally contingent divine authority.

The Performative Reception of The Qur’an in Mappasuru’ Tradition: A Living Qur’an Study in Tampumia Village
type: item
description: The study discusses the phenomenon of the Living Qur'an in the burial of the deceased. Using the Living Qur'an approach, which focuses on the community's understanding of the readings they often use in a practice called mappasuru, the researcher used observation and interview methods and techniques as well as documentation, namely collecting data through field observations and discussions with mappasuru practitioners. The main sources are the results of interviews and observations, supported by relevant journals that discuss the issues in general. The results of the study on the Living Qur'an phenomenon in the practice of burying the dead in Tampumia Village show that: first, the mappasuru’ procedure begins when the body is lowered into the grave until the coffin is closed. Second, the recitations used are Q.S al-Fatihah/1:1-7, QS Taha/20:55, QS al-Fajr/89:27-28. Q.S Quraisy/106:1-1 and Q.S al-Ikhlas/112:1-1. Third, this study shows a shift in the function of the Qur'an from textual-informative meaning to performative meaning. In the practice of mappasuru, the community prioritizes the sacredness and efficacy of the ritual (benefits) of the verse over the accuracy of its literal meaning. This implies that in contemporary Qur'anic studies, the authority of the text lives not only through the interpretations of scholars, but also through its functional reception within the community.

Taujih Methodology and Its Relevance in Understanding Similar Editions in the Qur'an
type: item
description: The Qur’an possesses distinctive linguistic characteristics, one of which is the phenomenon of similarly or identically worded verses (mutasyabih al-lafdzi). This phenomenon has generated diverse responses, ranging from Orientalist views that regard it as an indication of textual irregularity to Muslim scholars who understand it as part of the Qur’an’s rhetorical inimitability (i‘jaz Al-Qur’an).This study specifically aims to: 1) identify the forms of mutasyabih al-lafdzi in the Qur’an; 2) analyze the methodological principles of taujih in explaining variations among similar verses, and; 3) formulate a systematic framework of taujih principles integrated with classical tafsir and modern Qur’anic linguistics, while offering a scholarly critique of Orientalist views on Qur’anic repetition. This research employs a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach through a literature review of classical and contemporary tafsir works as well as specialized studies on taujih al-mutasyabih al-lafdzi. The analysis applies semantic, contextual, and rhetorical perspectives to uncover the relationship between lexical variation and the communicative purposes of the verses. The findings indicate that similarities in Qur’anic wording are not random but follow systematic and functional linguistic patterns. Each variation reflects meaningful adjustments to thematic context, pedagogical aims, and discourse structure. The novelty of this study lies in formulating a structured and integrative taujih framework that bridges classical exegetical tradition with modern linguistic theory and effectively addresses claims of textual inconsistency in the Qur’an. Thus, this study affirms the strategic role of taujih in strengthening the Qur’an’s internal coherence and deepening understanding of similarly worded verses.

The Integration of Psychology and Qur’anic Spirituality in Self-Concept: Implications of Hamka's Tafsir Al-Azhar Analysis
type: item
description: This study aims to examine the formation of self-concept according to Hamka in Tafsir Al-Azhar and its implications for Islamic psychology. Using a literature analysis approach and Hasan Hanafi's maudhu'i interpretation, this study explores the integration of Qur'anic values in the formation of a healthy self-concept, covering psychological, moral, and spiritual dimensions. The main focus is to analyze how Hamka relates self-concept to spirituality, desire control, and the application of moral values in the Qur'an. This study also connects Hamka's thoughts with modern psychological theories, such as self-actualization and self-regulation, to address issues of identity and mental health in modern society. The results of the study show that Hamka's concept of self is based on purification of the soul (tazkiyatun al-nafs), which is the foundation for forming a healthy concept of self that is capable of facing psychological and social challenges. The implication is that the integration of spirituality and morality in the formation of self-concept provides a holistic approach to overcoming mental health and identity crises. This study offers a new perspective in the development of Islamic psychology by incorporating spirituality in the formation of a positive self-concept, as well as opening up further research potential for practical applications in mental health, character education, and community development.

Reconstructing Qur’anic Social Ethics: A Thematic Exegesis of Ta’awun and Its Implications for Social Assistance Governance in Indonesia
type: item
description: The governance of social assistance in Indonesia reflects a structural ethical crisis characterized by weak accountability, limited transparency, and the misuse of authority that disproportionately affects vulnerable groups. This condition indicates a significant gap between Qur’anic ethical values and contemporary social policy practices. This study aims to reconstruct the Qur’anic concept of ta‘awun as a framework of Qur’anic social ethics to analyze the misuse of social assistance in the Indonesian context. Employing a qualitative approach, this research applies a contextual thematic (maudhu’i) interpretation method integrated with Islamic social ethics, analyzing Qur’anic verses related to ta‘awun through Makkan–Madinan classification, semantic analysis, and thematic synthesis, supported by classical and contemporary Qur’anic commentaries as well as social policy literature. The findings demonstrate that ta‘awun encompasses three interrelated dimensions: a spiritual dimension as the foundation of the human God relationship, a social dimension emphasizing solidarity and collective responsibility, and a normative dimension defining ethical boundaries of cooperation. The principle of ta‘awun ‘ala al-birr wa al-taqwa embodies accountability, distributive justice, and transparency in social assistance governance, whereas the misuse of social assistance represents an institutional manifestation of ta‘awun ‘ala al-ithm wa al-‘udwan. This study concludes that reconstructing ta‘awun as a Qur’anic ethical framework provides a relevant normative foundation for strengthening ethical and accountable social assistance governance. The novelty of this research lies in integrating thematic Qur’anic interpretation with Islamic social ethics and contemporary governance discourse, positioning ta‘awun as an institutional ethical principle rather than merely an individual moral injunction.

Qur’anic Memorization as Lived Religious Practice Among Children with Special Needs: A Living Qur’an Study of Tajdied Method Mumtaz School
type: item
description: Inclusive Qur’anic education demands pedagogical approaches that respond to the diverse cognitive, emotional, and sensory characteristics of children with special needs, as conventional memorization models often emphasize technical accuracy while overlooking how the Qur’an is experienced and embodied in daily learning. This study examines Qur’anic memorization as a lived religious practice through the implementation of the Tajdied Method at Mumtaz Elementary School, Sidoarjo. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews with Qur’an teachers, inclusive facilitators, and students, as well as institutional documentation. The data were analyzed thematically within a living Qur’an framework. The findings reveal that the Tajdied Method—integrating rhythmic movement, melodic recitation, and mnemonic reinforcement—encourages affective involvement and embodied engagement with the Qur’an. Memorization is thus positioned not merely as a cognitive achievement but as an emotionally mediated and socially situated religious experience. Learning outcomes varied, influenced by attention span, sensory sensitivity, emotional regulation, and teacher–student interaction. This study contributes to living Qur’an scholarship by reframing Qur’anic memorization among children with special needs as an experiential, contextual, and socially embedded religious practice.

Talaqqi and Musyafahah Methods in Qur’anic Literacy Learning: A Literature Review in Qur’anic Education
type: item
description: The techniques of talaqqi and musyafahah are fundamental approaches in the realm of Qur’anic education, concentrating on the authoritative and direct manner of delivering recitation. However, contemporary studies frequently limit their examination of these methods to their technical aspects and practical educational outcomes. This study aims to investigate the talaqqi and musyafahah techniques within the context of teaching the reading and writing of the Qur’an, utilizing a library research method grounded in a narrative literature review format. Data was collected from both historical and contemporary sources, which consisted of Qur’anic exegeses, hadith collections, turath literature, and relevant scholarly journal articles. The collected information was analyzed utilizing content analysis and thematic analysis techniques. The results suggest that talaqqi and musyafahah serve not just as practical teaching techniques but also as strategies rooted in deep theological and knowledge-based principles, which are evident in how the Qur’an was revealed and in the educational methods used by the Prophet Muhammad. The combination of recitation, documentation, ethical learning, and spiritual refinement (tazkiyah an-nafs) establishes these techniques as comprehensive teaching methods. This research aids in broadening the conceptual framework of Qur’anic education by emphasizing the importance of talaqqi and musyafahah in modern Islamic education, especially in preserving recitation accuracy, cultivating Islamic character development, and ensuring the ongoing transmission of scholarship.

The Meaning of Bahr in the Qur’an: Semantic Analysis by Toshihiko Izutsu
type: item
description: The Qur’an often employs words that appear to be synonyms but have subtle differences in meaning. Such is the case with the use of the terms bahr and yamm for the sea. This study explores why the Qur’an uses bahr in certain cases and yamm in others, with the hope of discovering the semantic meaning of bahr and its implications on the concept of mutaradif (synonyms) in the Qur’an. The inquiry is particularly relevant today, as the sea—an essential part of human life—is facing ecological dangers wrought by human actions. Adopting a qualitative library-research design, data were gathered from Qur’anic verses containing bahr yamm, classical and modern Arabic lexicons, and major tafsir works; analysis followed Izutsu’s semantic procedures (syntagmatic–paradigmatic mapping, synchronic–diachronic tracing, and worldview synthesis), with validity strengthened through source triangulation and peer/expert review. Using Toshihiko Izutsu’s semantic theory, this research analyzes the term bahr to identify its hidden meanings and its theological and ethical implications. Findings indicate a deliberate lexical differentiation: bahr extends beyond the physical sea toward divine taskhir, order, and benefit, whereas yamm appears predominantly in threat–punishment narratives. Taken together, the Qur’an does not employ near-synonyms interchangeably; this contrast clarifies Qur’anic diction and underpins a theological–ecoethical call to gratitude, restraint and responsible marine stewardship.

The Integration of Sanad in the Contextual Interpretation of the Qur'an: A Maqasid-Based Perspective
type: item
description: While contextual approaches frequently lack this epistemic anchor, which raises questions about legitimacy, classical Islamic scholarship emphasizes sanad (chain of transmission) as the primary criterion for authenticating Qur'anic interpretations based on Prophetic traditions. By combining sanad-based validation with maqasid al-shari‘ah (higher objectives of Islamic law), this study offers a compromise that results in interpretations that are both legitimate and pertinent. The framework involves two steps: first, isnad-based validation using isnad and matn criticism to verify textual authenticity (riwayah sahihah); second, maqasid-driven interpretation using the values of public welfare, justice, and mercy to bring meaning into line with modern contexts. By ensuring authenticity comes before contextualization, this "double validation" lessens subjective bias while maintaining epistemic authority. The innovation resides in overcoming the riwayah–dirayah divide using a methodical approach that blends purposive interpretation with authenticity protections. In terms of methodology, the study uses a qualitative-descriptive approach that includes textual analysis of both modern tafsir literature influenced by the maqasidi paradigm and classical hadith sources. It uses hermeneutical interpretation to link textual meaning to socio-historical realities, content analysis to identify themes, and isnad–matn criticism to evaluate reliability. The end effect is a methodology that is both responsive to contemporary issues and steadfast in its adherence to Islamic epistemology, maintaining the normative function of sanad while permitting context-sensitive Qur'anic interpretations.

The Reception of the Concept of Syura in the Philosophy of Tungku Tigo Sajarangan in Tanah Datar Regency, West Sumatera
type: item
description: This article aims to analyze the acceptance of the concept of shura in the Qur'an in Tanah Datar Regency, West Sumatra. Here, the concept of syura has been adapted into a leadership philosophy called tungku tigo sajarangan. Where did this philosophy originate, and how did the community accept the concept of syura, which was transformed into the tungku tigo sajarangan philosophy? This study uses a qualitative method, with data collected from two sources: literature and field data. Literature data was collected from various references discussing the concept of shura in the Qur'an, while field data was obtained from research subjects in West Sumatra. The method used was a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach and acceptance theory introduced by Ahmad Rafiq as an analytical tool to track informative and performative sources from texts and practices, as well as to observe the process of transmission of a practice and its transformation within society. This study found that the philosophy of tungku tigo sajarangan, which teaches about the deliberation procedure in Tanah Datar, was informatively transmitted from the concept of shura found in QS. Ali Imran [3]: 159 and QS. As-Syura [42]: 38. Performatively, it is transmitted from the form of deliberative practice carried out by the Prophet and his Companions in the books of interpretation and history. Then, the deliberative practice was transformed by the people of Tanah Datar into a philosophy of custom, namely the philosophy of tungku tigo sajarangan.

Understanding the Concept of Ghuluw in the Qur’an: An Analysis of Al-Maraghi’s Tafsir and Its Relevance to Modern Religious Practices
type: item
description: Religious extremism (ghuluw) represents a critical theological and social challenge requiring contextual interpretation of Qur'anic texts. This research investigates the conceptualization of ghuluw through comparative exegetical analysis, examining interpretations from classical scholars (Al-Ṭabari, Al-Razi) and contemporary commentators (Al-Maraghi, Quraish Shihab, Hamka, Ṭabaṭaba'i) regarding QS. Al-Nisa' [4]:171 and QS. Al-Ma'idah [5]:77. Employing library research methodology with thematic (mawdu'i) and comparative approaches, this study positions Al-Maraghi's Tafsir as the primary analytical framework, complemented by systematic cross-referencing of six major exegetical works spanning classical and modern periods. The research identifies three principal findings: 1) ghuluw emerges from the interplay of theological misconceptions, unchecked desires (hawa nafsu), and rational deficit in religious understanding; 2) classical and contemporary exegetes demonstrate convergent emphasis on wasaṭiyyah (moderation) as the foundational antithesis to extremist tendencies; 3) Al-Maraghi's adabi ijtima'i (socio-literary) methodology provides actionable frameworks for addressing contemporary polarization phenomena in Indonesian Muslim communities. Empirical contextualization through documented cases—including the Sampang sectarian conflict (2012) and intolerance survey data—illustrates the persistent relevance of Qur'anic prohibitions against religious excess. This investigation transcends normative-theological discourse by integrating textual exegesis with socio-political analysis, thereby contributing a dual-function scholarship: deepening theoretical understanding of ghuluw while simultaneously offering practical deradicalization strategies rooted in Islamic moderation principles. The study's significance lies in bridging the gap between classical hermeneutics and contemporary challenges of religious extremism, radicalism, and sectarian fragmentation within Indonesia's plu…

The Construction of the Concept of Self-Efficacy in the Qur’an: A Thematic Interpretation and Grounded Theory Approach
type: item
description: This study aims to construct a conceptual model of self-efficacy from the perspective of the Qur’an, positioning spiritual values as the foundational elements in shaping personal belief and confidence. In contrast to established Western psychological frameworkssuch as Bandura’s model, which emphasizes cognitive, social, and affective dimensionsthis research proposes a Qur’anic self-efficacy framework rooted in tawhid (monotheism), tawakkul (reliance on God), and belief in divine intervention as core components of human agency. Employing a qualitative grounded theory approach and thematic Qur’anic exegesis (tafsir maudhu‘i), the study analyzed selected Qur’anic verses through open, axial, and selective coding. The analysis identified 19 key verses that form the basis of three interconnected dimensions of Qur’anic self-efficacy: (1) Personal efficacy, which instills a transcendent belief that ease accompanies hardship (Q.S. Al-Inshirah: 5); (2) Behavioral efficacy, which links persistent effort (mujahadah) to divine guidance (Q.S. Al-‘Ankabut: 69); and (3) Spiritual efficacy, affirming that each soul is only burdened within its capacity (Q.S. Al-Baqarah: 286). The primary novelty of this research lies in the formulation of “spiritual efficacy” as a distinct dimension, absent in conventional self-efficacy theories. This contribution expands the theoretical scope of psychology by integrating spiritual-transcendental values rooted in Islamic epistemology. Furthermore, the findings offer a theoretical foundation for the development of Islamic psychology and Qur’an-based character education, presenting a comprehensive model of human self-efficacy that harmonizes reason, behavior, and faith.

description: This study examines the concept of rukhsah (legal concession) for menstruating women as articulated in the Qur’an, through a comparative analysis of two prominent exegetical works: Al-Jamiʿ li Ahkam al-Qurʾan by Al-Qurthubi and Tafsir al-Munir by Wahbah az-Zuhaili. Employing a qualitative library research design and the tafsir muqaran approach formulated by ʿAbd al-Hayy al-Farmawi, the study identifies, collects, and interprets relevant Qur’anic verses addressing menstruation and legal dispensations. The findings reveal a shared recognition of certain ritual prohibitions—such as prayer, fasting, sexual intercourse, and tawaf—yet notable divergences emerge in their views on Qur’anic recitation, mosque entry, and ritual purity. Al-Qurthubi maintains a more restrictive legal stance grounded in classical fiqh, while az-Zuhaili offers a more contextualized interpretation informed by contemporary realities, including advances in hygiene and medical understanding. This study introduces a novel comparative hermeneutical framework that bridges traditional and modern perspectives, contributing to the discourse on gender-sensitive Qur’anic interpretation. It underscores the potential for a more inclusive and practical application of Islamic legal principles for menstruating women in the modern era.

Construction of the Meaning of Ayat Kursi: An Analysis of Al-Munir and At-Ta'wil An-Najmiyyah Interpretations Through Roland Barthes' Semiotics Approach
type: item
description: This study investigates how ideological meaning is constructed in Ayat Kursi through Roland Barthes’ semiotic approach, using Tafsir al-Munir and At-Ta’wil al-Najmiyyah as primary references, and how its transformation of meaning is manifested in Muslim religious practices. Ayat Kursi, widely recited and regarded as a means of protection, is often understood normatively, without further exploration of the sign systems embedded in its textual formulations. This research highlights that each expression in the verse holds broader and more complex meanings that go beyond literal interpretation. The findings show that, at the denotative level, Ayat Kursi describes Allah’s majesty and absolute power. At the connotative level, it conveys symbols of divine protection, spiritual strength, and Islamic identity. At the mythical level, the verse represents transcendent authority that governs human existence, portraying faith as a protective force through Allah’s unlimited power to repel danger, ward off evil, and bring peace. Furthermore, the study identifies three patterns in the transformation of Ayat Kursi’s meaning within religious practice: (1) a shift from spiritual-transcendental protection to its use as a magical-sympathetic object; (2) its role as a marker of identity and sacred space; and (3) a reduction of its rich, complex meanings into simplified, practical functions. By combining semiotic analysis with exegetical perspectives, this research contributes to deepening the study of Qur’anic interpretation and demonstrates the continued relevance of Ayat Kursi for contemporary Islamic discourse.

Emotions In The Qur'an: A Thematic Study of Verses on Self-Control
type: item
description: Uncontrolled emotions often trigger a variety of psychological and social problems, such as impulsive behavior, conflict, anxiety, and spiritual imbalances. However, the majority of research to date has used a descriptive-normative approach and has not yet developed a model of emotional regulation based on the Qur'an. This research aims to fill that gap by analyzing the Qur’an’s verses that reflect basic human emotions, especially in terms of self-control strategies. A qualitative approach based on literature review and thematic interpretation (mawdu'i) is used, namely by grouping verses scattered in various surahs into the theme of emotion and self-control. The data was analyzed through theory-based coding techniques based on the development of a conceptual framework of self-control according to the Qur'an. The results of the study state that the Qur'an not only acknowledges the existence of human emotions and desires, but also provides moral and spiritual guidance in managing them constructively. These values enrich the thematic discourse of Islamic interpretation and psychology, particularly in building the foundation of spiritual regulation to respond to modern psychiatric and social challenges. The research offers novelty by bridging thematic tafsir and grounded theoretical approaches to construct an emotion regulation model directly from revelation. Additionally, this study produces an e-book intented for academics, educators, and practitioners of Islamic counseling. It further recommends multidisciplinary research to integrate the Qur’anic concept of self-control into educational curricula, therapeutic models, and faith-based counseling frameworks.

Mental Health as Intervening Variable on Relationship of Social Support and Achievement of Qur'an Memorization
type: item
description: The 2022 Indonesian National Youth Mental Health Survey informed that adolescents were diagnosed around 1 in 20 or 5.5 percent of with condition of mental disorders. Basically, social support can encourage adolescents to have good mental health, so they can achieve their dreams. Especially for adolescents in memorizing the Qur'an. This study was to analyze the effect of social support on the achievement of memorizing the Qur'an and mental health as an intervening variable. The research method used quantitative with a survey approach. Based on the data obtained, there is a relationship between social support and the achievement of memorizing the Qur'an through mental health. The results of the study showed that social support was significantly related to mental health. It is known that out of 94 people, there are 60 people (63.8%) in the moderate category, which proves that the relationship between social support and mental health and is strengthened by the Sommers'd test which shows that the correlation is quite strong with a p value of 0.007 <0.05 which means that there is a relationship between social support and mental health on the achievement of memorizing the Qur'an. The novelty of this study lies in its concept, namely that social support can affect the achievement of memorizing the Qur'an through mental health because good social support will produce a healthy mentality, and a healthy mentality will make the memorizer of the Qur'an enjoy the process of memorizing it.

A Jurisprudential Critique of Khamr Prohibition in Abid Al-Jabiri’s Nuzuli Tafsir
type: item
description: Khamr, as an intoxicating substance, is explicitly prohibited in Islamic law due to its harmful effects on both individual and societal well-being. In Indonesia, the increasing number of khamr abuse cases has led to various social and health-related problems. Abid al-Jabiri, a contemporary Muslim intellectual, reexamines the prohibition of khamr through his nuzuli tafsir, offering a contextual and chronological understanding of the relevant Qur’anic verses. This study analyzes al-Jabiri’s nuzuli interpretation by applying a chronological approach to the verses on khamr prohibition (Q.S. al-Baqarah 2:219, al-Nisa’ 4:43, and al-Ma’idah 5:90–91), linking their stages of revelation with the sirah nabawiyyah. Using a library-based, descriptive-analytical method and the ijmali approach, the research traces the sequential development of the prohibition to uncover al-Jabiri’s juristic framework that integrates historical context with normative guidance. Through the lens of pragmatic truth theory, the study highlights the novelty of al-Jabiri’s nuzuli method, which contrasts with traditional, static interpretations by situating the verses within an evolving socio-political context. This reinterpretation offers a rational, adaptable, and socially responsive model for applying Islamic legal principles to contemporary issues, particularly concerning the regulation and understanding of intoxicants in modern Muslim societies.

Comparison Between Rasm Utsmani and Rasm Imla’i in Relation to the I’jazul Al-Qur’an
type: item
description: This study examines the unique features of Rasm Utsmani and Rasm Imla’i, highlighting the ways these writing systems support the concept of i‘jaz Al-Qur’an, particularly in terms of their influence on meaning, word structure, and the aesthetic qualities of the Qur’anic language. Using a qualitative-descriptive method, the study conducts textual analysis on selected Qur’anic verses that exhibit orthographic differences between the two scripts. The data were collected through literature review, encompassing canonical mushaf, classical Qur’anic sciences, and contemporary scholarly discussions. The analysis reveals that Rasm Utsmani functions beyond a mere orthographic convention it carries symbolic layers that convey profound meanings and support the Qur’an’s miraculous nature. While Rasm Imla’i prioritizes phonetic clarity for ease of reading and writing, it tends to lack the visual depth and exegetical richness present in Rasm Utsmani. The study suggests that integrating both systems in Qur’anic pedagogy balancing readability with a deeper appreciation of divine linguistic structure can enhance comprehension and spiritual engagement with the text.

Semantic and Science Qur’anic Studies: Relationship Genetic Inheritance and Parental Education Model for Children in Qissah Ibrahim
type: item
description: This article investigates the concept of genetic inheritance and parental education in the Qur’an by focusing on the story of Prophet Ibrahim, his two wives (Hajar and Sarah), and their sons, Ismail and Ishaq. Using a semantic approach, it analyzes the terms ghulam, halim, and alim as found in Surah As-Saffat (101) and Adh-Dhariyat (28), applying two linguistic theories—derivation (isytiqaq) and correlation (munasabah) in combination with a scientific framework. The aim is to explore how these Qur’anic expressions contribute to understanding the interplay between inherited traits and educational influence in shaping character. Modern genetics emphasizes the biological transmission of traits, while developmental psychology highlights the importance of environment and parenting. The Qur’an appears to acknowledge both, suggesting that children's characteristics are shaped not only through lineage but also through nurturing. This is illustrated in the distinct personalities of the sons of Hajar and Sarah, which are examined through linguistic and contextual analysis. Findings reveal that ghulam refers to a child nearing adulthood, alim denotes deep and inherent knowledge, and halim describes patience and emotional restraint. These attributes reflect both inherited and cultivated virtues present in the characters of Ibrahim's sons. While the article does not establish a definitive "ideal parenting model", it identifies key elements, such as inherited moral dispositions and consistent educational guidance. That contributes to effective parental influence. Ultimately, this research affirms the value of Qur'anic semantics as a lens for understanding the integration of nature and nurture in the moral development of children.

The Educational Environment According to the Qur'an and Hadith: Perspectives and Implications
type: item
description: The educational environment in Islam plays a strategic role in shaping students' character. This study aims to explore the concept of the academic environment from the perspective of the Qur'an and Hadith and analyze its implications for the formation of an Islamic generation. Employing a qualitative approach with a literature review method, the research examines various relevant sources. The findings identify three main dimensions of an ideal educational environment: the family, school, and community. These three dimensions are interdependent and work synergistically to shape a generation rooted in faith, knowledge, and noble character. The family serves as the initial foundation for instilling values of faith and morality. The school extends this foundation through structured, formal education, and the community provides a real-life context for practicing these values. This study highlights the lack of integration between family, school, and community roles in current Islamic educational models. It concludes that strengthening the synergy among these three pillars can contribute significantly to building a holistic Islamic education system that is adaptive to contemporary challenges and capable of fostering character education based on Islamic values.

Istidraj As A Metaphor (Study Of Hermeneutic Interpretation)
type: item
description: This study discusses the sentence sanastadrijuhum in the Qur'an, which is known in society as istidraj. The purpose of this study is to reveal the meaning of istidraj according to the exegetes in a metaphorical and hermeneutic perspective. This study is qualitative and descriptive and uses a literature review method. The data collection technique used is the Mau?u'i method (thematic analysis), while data analysis is carried out using a hermeneutic approach. The main source of this study is the Qur'an al-Karim, with supporting references from various tafsir books that are relevant to the theme. The study results show that, first, according to the exegetes, sanastadrijuhum is interpreted as a fall that occurs gradually and is almost imperceptible because it happens little by little. Allah SWT provides an opportunity to achieve a high position before being suddenly dropped. Second, metaphorically, istidraj has a satirical meaning, namely the postponement of punishment which is then given at once, both in the context of sin and goodness. Third, from a hermeneutic perspective, istidraj is a form of retribution that occurs through a certain process, either at a fast or slow tempo. This retribution is conveyed through various systematically arranged instruments, such as angels, humans, natural phenomena, or other events that appear natural.

The Influence Of Prayer On The Morals Of Muslim Adolescents In The Perspective Of Surat Al-Ankabut Verse 45
type: item
description: Prayer plays an important role in shaping noble morals, as explained in the Qur’an. But, today’s teenagers face many challenges in the form of moral crises, evident from the rising cases of juvenile delinquency, some even leading to criminal acts. This shows that not all Muslim teenagers are able to reflect the values of prayer in their morals. This research aims to analyze the interpretation of Surah Al-Ankabut verse 45, which discusses the influence of prayer in preventing immoral and evil acts, and to measure how prayer influences the character if adolescents. This research uses a mixed method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative approaches. The qualitative method is applied through the analysis of qur’anic interpretation using Analytical Exegesis (Al-Tafsir al-Tahlili) while the quantitative method is used to analyze numerical data using SPSS software. The research presents two main findings. First, according to the Qur’anic Exegetes, prayer effective in preventing immoral and wicked deeds must encompass three aspects: Fi‘liyah (implementation), Qauliyah (recitation), Qalbiyah (heart contemplation). Second, the quantitative analysis shows that prayer has a significant influence on students' morals, contributing 14,9%. These findings emphasize the importance of deep understanding and correct implementation of prayer in shaping good character among students. The novelty of this research is in its holistic approach to the practice of prayer, which not only measures the frequency of prayer but also assesses student understanding of prayer and the noble values contained in its practice.

The Concept Of Property Management In The Qur'an And Its Implications In Social Life (Thematic Study According To Al-Azhar Tafsir)
type: item
description: Social inequalities, such as poverty, limited education access, and wealth disparity, often stem from unjust wealth management. Islam, through the Qur'an, offers comprehensive guidelines on acquiring, consuming, purifying, distributing, and protecting wealth to benefit society. While Islamic finance has been widely studied, research linking wealth management to social implications remains limited. This study analyzes wealth management concepts in the Qur'an based on Tafsir Al-Azhar by Hamka and examines their impact on social welfare. Using a qualitative, literature-based approach with thematic tafsir, the study explores relevant Qur'anic verses in a modern socio-economic context. Findings reveal five key aspects of wealth management: halal acquisition emphasizing justice and spiritual balance, moderate consumption avoiding excess and miserliness, purification through zakat to reduce inequality, distribution via charity and waqf to foster social solidarity, and wealth protection through financial planning and inheritance for future security. The study confirms that applying Islamic wealth management principles can help reduce social inequality, improve welfare, and promote economic justice. It contributes to Islamic economic theory while offering practice al guidance fo individuals and policymakers to manage wealth fairly and sustainably.

Transformation Of Traditional Tafsir To Modern Perspective Of Fazlur Rahman's Hermeneutics
type: item
description: This article examines the transformation of tafsir from traditional to modern in the perspective of Fazlur Rahman's hermeneutics. This research was conducted using qualitative methodology with hermeneutic analysis to understand the mufassir's efforts in answering the challenges of the times in a more contextual and relevant way. The traditional textual approach is now replaced by a more unified hermeneutic method, combining social, historical and linguistic analysis. This allows Qur'anic interpretation to deepen meanings that are not only appropriate to the context of the past, but also relevant to modern social, political and cultural realities. The development of globalization and modernity has had a significant impact on the dynamics of tafsir, with modern mufassirs applying adaptive methods to address social issues. However, this transformation faces the challenge of maintaining a balance between innovation and respect for tradition and the authority of the sacred text. The interim conclusion of the study shows that changes in tafsir not only enrich the intellectual horizons of Islam, but also play an important role in developing an understanding and practice of the Qur'an that is more relevant to the context of modern society.

Deuteronomy Of Taghleeb In The Word Of Al-Abawani, Al-Masyriqani And Al-Bahrani In The Quran (Semantic Approach To The Quran)
type: item
description: Some people only know the general form of tasniyah, even though there is another form, namely Deuteronomy of taghlib. Therefore, this research aims to discuss in detail the Deuteronomy of taghlib, especially in the three words as al-abawani, al-masyriqani, and al-bahrani. The novelty in the research is discussing the Deuteronomy of taghlib with Thosihiko Izutsu's Semantic Approach. Based on the literature reviewed, there has been limited in-depth discussion of the deuteronomy of taghlib. Therefore, this study argues that a detailed examination of the deuteronomy of taghlib in the Quran is essential. This research employed a library research. Followed by an analysis of the meanings of these three words based on Quranic semantics according to Thosihiko Izutsu, a Japanese linguist. The findings of this research indicate that the word al-abawani is the dual form of al-abu (father). In the Quran, al-abawani refers to both parents (father and mother) and is related to inheritance. In other verses, it refers to the two grandfathers of Prophet Yusuf: Prophet Ibrahim and Ishaq. In another context, al-abawani is interpreted as Adam and Eve in relation to their expulsion from Paradise. The word al-masyriqani is the dual form of masyriq, meaning "place of sunrise." In the Quran, al-masyriqani refers to the place of sunrise and sunset. In other verses, it is interpreted as the place of sunrise during summer and winter. Finally, the word al-bahrani is the dual form of al-bahru, meaning "sea." In the Quran, al-bahrani is interpreted as the meeting point of two seas.

The Paradigm Of The Word Hanif In The Qur'an: A Study Of Mawdu'i Tafsir
type: item
description: Mawdu’i commentary is a method of Quranic interpretation that analyzes a specific surah or gathers verses with similar themes under one topic. This study employs a mawdu’i approach to examine the meaning of hanif in the Qur’an, focusing on verses that explicitly contain the word without including its derivations. The objective is to determine the criteria of the hanif religion practiced by Prophet Ibrahim while comparing interpretations from Meccan and Medinan period verses. Additionally, this research explores scholarly perspectives to contextualize the concept of hanif in Islamic theology. Using a qualitative mawdu’i approach, this study integrates linguistic, theological, and historical analyses. Its novelty lies in the contextual comparison of Quranic revelations, offering a dynamic interpretation of hanif. The findings reveal five key characteristics of the hanif religion: an inclination toward monotheism, sincerity in worship, belief in all messengers of Allah, orientation toward the Kaaba and Hajj, and a strong commitment to affirming Allah’s Oneness. This research highlights the Quranic legitimacy of Islam as the continuation of Ibrahim’s millah, distinguishing it from Jewish and Christian claims. By providing a structured thematic analysis, this study enhances the understanding of hanif and its relevance in contemporary Islamic thought. It emphasizes hanif as a foundational principle of monotheism, guiding Muslims in faith and devotion to Allah.

Religious Pluralism In Tafsir Al-Mizan: Thabathaba'i Perspective And Its Relevance In Multicultural Indonesia
type: item
description: Indonesia's diverse society, with its multitude of ethnicities, religions, and cultures, stands as both a profound asset and a significant challenge. While this diversity is a source of immense social wealth, it can also lead to conflict if not properly managed. Religious tolerance plays a central role in ensuring social harmony, as religion often serves as a strong identity marker that may create divisions or competition among groups. In this context, Islamic moderation presents a peaceful way to combat radicalism and extremism. This study examines the views of Allama Tabatabai in his al-Mizan fi Tafsir al-Quran regarding religious pluralism, exploring its relevance to fostering tolerance and social unity in Indonesia. Using a qualitative, library-based research approach, data was gathered from various sources, including Qur'anic commentaries, academic journals, and related literature. The findings suggest that while religious pluralism can be a sensitive issue, it also offers a foundation for strengthening social tolerance. Thabathaba’i argues that salvation in the afterlife is not determined solely by one’s religion but by faith in God, belief in the Day of Judgment, and good deeds. This inclusive perspective offers a framework for understanding religious differences in Indonesia. Ultimately, the research demonstrates that understanding religious pluralism through Tabatabai's interpretation can promote a more harmonious and tolerant society, where Islamic moderation and respect for diversity are key to building social unity amid Indonesia’s diverse and globalized environment. This research is innovative in applying Tabatabai's thoughts to the Indonesian context, highlighting their potential for enhancing social harmony amidst diversity.

description: This paper examines the contemporary process of Qur'anic memorization in Indonesia using the Yadain Method, which integrates traditional memorization practices with modern cognitive strategies. The background of this study highlights the need for innovative approaches to enhance both the intellectual retention and spiritual understanding of the Qur’an in diverse age groups. The objective is to analyze how the Yadain Method, emphasizing visualization and tadabbur (reflective contemplation of meanings), contributes to effective and holistic Qur’anic memorization. Employing a case study qualitative method, the research explores the implementation and impact of the method on participants at the Executive Tahfidz Center Yogyakarta. Key components of the method include cognitive aids such as color-coded visualizations and structured exercises, which facilitate rapid memorization and long-term retention. The findings reveal that this approach not only improves memorization efficiency but also fosters mental tranquility and spiritual growth, benefiting learners across various educational levels. The study introduces a novel framework for Qur’anic memorization in Indonesia, combining cognitive techniques with psychological and spiritual support, thus demonstrating its flexibility and effectiveness as a modern pedagogical tool.

Marriage Is Scary Phenomenon In Indonesia: Analysis Of Quranic Response To Increases Marital Violence
type: item
description: The phrase Marriage is Scary resonates in Indonesian society, influenced by rising Marital Violence or KDRT cases. The Central Bureau of Statistics reported a decrease in marriages from 1,695,255 in 2022 to 1,577,255 in 2023. Factors like patriarchal culture and inadequate education contribute to this issue. This study examines the Qur'an's perspective on gender harmony and its role in reducing violence and fostering harmonious households. Using a qualitative, critical-historical approach, the research integrates Asbabunnuzul and Qishshatul Qur’an with a correlational or Munasabah theory by library research method. Findings highlight the Qur'an's emphasis on premarital education, balanced roles between spouses, and prioritizing gender harmony to prevent violence. The study identifies examples of ideal households in the Qur'an, such as the families of Prophet Ibrahim and Imran, illustrating the importance of faith, patience, and mutual cooperation in achieving harmony. In the Indonesian context, where patriarchal norms and increasing marital violence contribute to marital anxiety, this study emphasizes the importance of Qur'anic teachings on justice, mutual respect and premarital preparation for building resilient households.

The Nusantara Interpretation By Bugis Scholars: Social And Local Dimensions Of Al-Munir Tafsir By Agh. Daud Ismail
type: item
description: This essay explains the Nusantara interpretation, specifically the Al-Munir Tafsir authored by AGH Daud Ismail, a prominent Bugis scholar from South Sulawesi. The interpretation plays a significant role in conveying Quranic messages in alignment with the social conditions surrounding the exegete. This study aims to investigate and analyze selected Quranic verses, subsequently examining their significance within the local societal context. The research employs a qualitative methodology utilizing literary review techniques, with a focused analysis of the Bugis Al-Munir Tafsir. Moreover, a phenomenological approach is utilized to establish connections between textual interpretation and social contexts. The article’s findings reveal that AGH. Daud Ismail developed a contextual interpretation model that demonstrates profound sensitivity to the social dynamics of Bugis society. This is evident in the strategic selection of Lontarak linguistic expressions readily comprehensible to the Bugis community. This research discovered that the Al-Munir Tafsir transcends mere translation and interpretation of the Quran based on the exegete's immediate requirements; instead, its interpretative approach facilitates the community's understanding of the Quranic text. Specifically, this research highlights the author's utilization of local language and linguistic expressions as a methodological strategy to transform Quranic messages into the cultural reality of Bugis society. This study is anticipated to contribute to enriching the scholarly landscape of Nusantara tafsir studies by presenting an interpretation model that is responsively attuned to the social contexts of the Bugis community in South Sulawesi, with broader implications for advancing more contextual and inclusive interpretation methodologies.
