Technological developments in the media are used by speakers to expand the range of meaning of the Qur'an rhetorically. Meaning is presented interactively to provide an effective impact of understanding by involving persuasive tools in explanatory rhetoric. This study aims to show Adi Hidayat's persuasive mechanism on the Adi Hidayat Official YouTube Channel as the new face of Qur'an interpretation on social media. To achieve this goal, this study uses qualitative methods with content analysis as an analytical tool. The emphasis on the persuasive model in Hidayat's interpretation was identified using the rhetorical approach initiated by Aristotle. This study concluded that the effectiveness of Hidayat's expression was influenced by his appearance as a credible and authoritative figure in the meaning of the Qur'an. This method is strengthened by the selection of arguments to emphasize and strengthen the meaning given properly and legitimately. Meanwhile, the e...

The progress of contemporary knowledge has implications for the formulation of Islamic studies in general, including the examination of the Qur'an. Scholars at UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta are redefining the approach to studying the Qur'an in a more modern direction to foster synergy and dialogue with established practices. The objective of this research is to uncover patterns and mechanisms for advancing Qur'anic studies at UIN Sunan Kalijaga by effectively integrating scientific methods and the teachings of the Qur'an. In order to accomplish this, the research employs a qualitative methodology and utilizes a systematic literature review as an analytical technique. The study reveals a developmental pattern in Qur'anic studies at UIN Sunan Kalijaga that commenced with a shift in perspective from a traditional emphasis on religious texts (ulūm ad-din) to critical investigations (dirāsāt islamīyah) based on empirical observations. Consequently, a fresh and contemp...

This study examines @quranreview's interpretation of Qur'anic verse QS. al-Nisā' [4]: 34 on social media, focusing on the words used to convey meaning. Interpreting the Qur'an on social media is often simple and direct, as it involves exploring the meaning of verses through individual comments. However, this approach needs to improve in that it can sometimes overlook the central message of the verse due to its focus on individual words. Discovering the tendency of word choice in interpreting the Qur'an contributes to developing interpretation in social media. Through a qualitative analysis using critical discourse analysis by Teun A. van Dijk, we found that @quranreview deliberately chooses representative words to challenge the traditional interpretation of the verse, which can be discriminatory towards women. The study highlights the importance of careful word choice in interpreting the Qur'an on social media, especially when dealing with sensitive and contr...

This study aims to determine strategy of da'wah to non-Muslims contained in Tafsīr Marāḥ Labīd by Nawawī al-Jāwī. Da'wah activities carried out against non-Muslims are always aimed at inviting them to convert Islam. This is contrary to the messages contained in the Qur'an and the values of religious freedom guaranteed by the state. This study uses a qualitative method with data analysis using content analysis. This study concludes that da'wah to non-Muslims in Nawawi's view is not in the form of an effort to invite them to Islam, but the delivery of a message to well behaved. The issue of faith, in Nawawi's view, is a guide that can only be given by God. In order for the message of da'wah to be conveyed, Nawawi emphasizes the da'wah method used that is not violent. This prohibition is absolute, except in the process the preacher experiences threats that can interfere with faith. However, Nawawī emphasized that if this happens and it is possible to avo...

This study aims to reveal the meaning of jihad in a modern context by Mohammed Arkoun’s hermeneutics approach. The definition of jihad, which is always identified with the sacrifice of body in the way of Allah, always leaves a lingering problem. Radicalism in the name of religion and the slogan of jihad towards the death of martyrs has been widely heard. To respond to this, this study uses qualitative methods with the type of literature study research. This research found that the meaning of the verse which textually means war can be interpreted differently by referring to the consciousness formed in each verse. Awareness of the meaning of the verse of jihad requires one to understand it in a variety of actions that are not only limited to soul sacrifice. Jihad can be carried out in all other ways that are relevant to the context and the demands of the situation in every human condition and capability. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengungkapkan makna jihad dalam konteks modern d...

The popularity of social media as a means of spreading meaningful content through lectures explaining the contents of the Qur’an has an impact on introducing new interpretation mechanisms that are carried out orally. Adi Hidayat consistently uploads lecture results containing interpretations of the Koran through the Adi Hidayat Official YouTube Channel. This study aims to find out the meaning mechanism used by Adi Hidayat by using qualitative methods with content analysis as a tool for analyzing data. The data in this study are limited to uploaded videos containing interpretations. This study found that the mechanism for conveying meaning by Adi Hidayat was not based on reading the commentary text but on an explanation mechanism that relied on memory for the meanings understood. The process of conveying the meaning of the Qur’an was chosen based on observing the audience using intonation and style that reinforces the message content of the verse. This method can be seen in the argum...

This study discusses the use of the poetic narrative of the Qur'an in mentioning the sexual relations between men and women mentioned in Q.S. Al-Baqarah [2]: 223. This verse is often used to show women as male sexual objects in the satisfaction of their sexual desires. The defense of this argument always argues for the meaning contained, not in the message contained with the poetic narrative in it. This study uses a qualitative method with a type of literature study. As for analyzing the data, this study uses content analysis. This study concludes that the poetic narrative in Isti'arah, majāz, and tasbih aims to give glory to women and respect their position. Using this form, the content of the resulting meaning refers to the sexual function aimed at obtaining offspring so that everything related to it is done to achieve that goal. The poetic narrative also contains an emphasis on treating women with the same model and form as the Qur'an treats them. Discovering the rel...

Several previous studies have proven the significant role of social media in the reading, teaching, and interpretation of al-Qur’an. Therefore, this study aims to determine the models, factors, and implications of teaching al-Qur’an using the TikTok application, a popular social media platform utilizing a logical structure to emphasize the importance of its contents. A qualitative approach was applied in this study to mediate this function by collecting 47 al-Qur’an-related contents from six influential accounts. The results showed that TikTok is a mediator in disseminating al-Qur’an-related content, especially in teaching al-Qur’an. It is indicated by illustrations of how to recite al-Qur’an properly by following the tajweed, displaying a variety of beautiful and contextually meaningful readings. Furthermore, the uploaded contents are driven by the need to teach and recite al- Qur’an, expand da’wah, and respond to encountered questions and events. Therefore, the teaching, recitatio...

Using ideology in interpretation has become a major problem since the codification of interpretation. This kind of interpretation model emphasizes the meaning leads to a certain ideology to expand the range of understanding through publications. This was done by Hassan in his work, Tafsir al-Furqan, who made it as a medium of da'wah to spread Persis's belief about Islam. This study aims to find the ideological narrative in Hassan's interpretation. This study uses a qualitative method with content analysis as a data analysis tool to achieve this goal. This study finds that Hassan's efforts to provide a normative understanding of Islam with purification efforts start from positioning the Qur'an as the main guide that eliminates all existence of previous traditions. With this argument, all forms of tradition preservation and knowledge development cannot be the basis for forming a new religious practice that is not found in the Qur'an. Muslims must fully adhere t...

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan validasi ulang terhadap beragam respon akademisi terhadap pandemi COVID-19 dengan mengaitkannya terhadap beragam ayat Al Quran. Untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut, penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan teknik penelitian studi pustaka. Sebagai perangkat analisa data, penelitian ini juga menggunakan pendekatan tafsir kontekstual Abdullah Saeed. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa penggunaan ayat dalam merespon fenomena pandemi menggunakan metode teknik penafsiran dan pembuktian kemukjizatan Al Quran secara saintifik. Dalam proses penafsiran, pencarian konteks penghubung untuk menemukan relasi terhadap konteks turunnya ayat dengan konteks kekinian tidak dapat ditemukan relevansinya. Kecenderungan para akademisi mengaitkan satu ayat dengan konteks hari ini tidak meninjau aspek historisitasnya, sehingga beragam ayat yang digunakan tidak dapat menunjukkan pemaknaan yang mendekati makna yang ditunjukkan oleh makna yang terkandung dalam kajia...

The complexity of the concept waḥdah al-wujūd in Ibn ‘Arabī understanding used in interpretation impacts the ignoring of his interpretation results leading to the essence of servitude and purification of God. The purpose of this study is the form of understanding that accentuates the meaning of the symbols depicted in verse. Tracing of Sufistic narratives in interpreting Ibn ‘Arabi was carried out in this study using qualitative methods with content analysis as a data analysis technique. The content analysis model analyzes the data by looking for conceptual relations in al-Futuḥāt al-Makkiyah by Ibn ‘Arabi about the Sufistic model of understanding. The semiotic theory of sacred texts aids this analysis process to see language phenomena in the scriptures presented through special symbols. This study found that the Sufistic interpretation of Ibn ‘Arabi is wrapped in symbolic form. The dressing of symbols in the process of understanding emphasizes the identification of Sufistic models ...

Women are beautiful creatures who should be treated with respect as the Qur'an treats them poetically.

The Interpretation with transmitted text (riwāyah) which uses to get meaning far away from the influence of ratio (al-ra'y) still cannot occur. Various different narrations for interpreting the same verse in the exegesis via narration (al-tafsīr bi al-ma'thūr) can be evidence of the use of ijtihad in that interpretation model. In this context, this study aims to find evidence and reconceptualize the terms to prove the existence ratio on exegesis via narration. This study uses a qualitative method with the type of study that uses literature research and uses content analysis as an analytical tool. This study finds that the interpreters in the category of exegesis via narration used ratio in the form of transmitted text selection to strengthen the meaning desired. The unawareness of the existence of rationality in the exegesis via narration is caused by the confusion of the terms used which are borrowed from the term of hadith study (muṣṭalah al-ḥadīth). Based on this, this st...

This study aims at rereading the interpretation of sura (chapter) Al-Fiil with a historical approach. The context of this sura is the incident of the attack of the elephant army led by Abrahah to Makkah. This event coincided with the outbreak of the Justinian Plagueepidemic in Ethiopia. Thus, it is necessary to reread this surawith consideration to the pandemic. This study concludes that certain terms in the suraAl-Fiil represent the events of the pandemic that caused the destruction of Abrahah’s army. Thayr, ababil, and sijjilbecome key terms whose meaning could refer to the cause, spread, and media of the outbreak contracting Abrahah and his army. In addition, a multidisciplinary approach in the interpretation of sura Al-Fiil can support the argument of the miracles of the Qur’an often attributed to the meaning of this suraby some classical interpreters. Similarly, the evidence for the miracles of the Qur’an resulted from this study might reinforce the existence of tafsir bi al-...

The Rationality in interpretation that tends to be disputed can be used as an instrument to provide the contextual meaning of the Qur’an. Rationality equipped by science can actualize meanings that are more relevant to the development of society. The actual meaning has an impact on easier understanding for the community. This study aims to reveal the function of rationality in contextual interpretation without having to be fixated on the significance of a verse. This study uses primary data sources from Terjemah dan Tafsir al-Qur’an bahasa Arab dan Latin by Bachtiar Surin. This interpretation is used, aside from being abandoned by many researchers, it is also used as another way to actualizing meaning. This study uses a qualitative method with content analysis as a data analysis tool. This study finds the significance of rationality in interpretation through the inseparable relationship of reason with the Qur'an. Intellect as a gift from God can be used to explain God's lang...

Acculturation between tafseer and tradition in Indonesia, like an aculturation between Islam and culture. The process of acculturation is successful. The dialogue between tradition and tafseer makes both of them not deny each other. However, the study about that, just strengthening the evidence from the results of the analysis about the products of interpretation. As a result, the study about interpretation in Indonesia become a repetitive study and only focuses on interpretation products. The development of an acculturative method that has proven successful, is more essential to provide new methods for interpretation in Indonesia. On these problems, this study aims to find the concept of acculturation in interpretations in Indonesia which makes classical interpretations as a reference. This research uses qualitative methods with literature study techniques. As a tool in analyzing data, this study also uses historical analysis with the approach of al-thâbit wa al-mutaḥawwil and herm...

This study focused on the meaning of the word moderate in the Qur'an contextually with reference to the QS. [2]: 143 and QS. [5]: 66. The idea of concept on religious moderation was still related to the meaning and urgency of moderate attitude by linking this attitude to the behavior of certain religious people. There were three problems in this study, (1) what was the form of the meaning of wasth and muqtashid? (2) what were the factors behind the meaning? (3) how the contextual meaning was generated. To respond the research problem, this study used a qualitative method using content analysis. This study revealed that the mention of moderate party in the Qur'an was not limited to Muslims, but also refers to other people. This was based on the similarity of meaning between the word wasth which was used to refer to Islam and muqtasid which was used to refer to Jews and Christians. Moderate was thus not identical to religion, but it was oriented to the attitude of humanity o...

This study aims to find new methods and meanings in the interpretation’s field. The finding of the method is intended to provide new insights regarding the objectivity of interpretation which is often disputed by many scholars. Based on this, this study uses qualitative methods with library research techniques. To in depth the data analysis, this study uses the insider and outsider approaches introduced by Kim Knott. This research finds that the synthesis between the interpretation of Western scholars and Islamic scholars produces a textual-historical understanding simultaneously. In the sense that the Quran is understood not only in the emphasis of the law and its sacredness, but also on its historical aspects which involve the cultural and historical structures that surround the Quran. The tendency of Western scholars to understanding the Quran in its critical aspect can suppress the subjectivity of Islam scholars interpretation which tends to be tendentious. In this context, this...

Dialogue between Ismā’îl and Ibrāhîm in Q.S. al-S{affāt [37]: 102, is not only focused on the polemic of the determination about child referred in the verse. Likewise, the discussion about this verse is not only abaout ideal model of education for children. Another discussion no less interesting is regarding the response of the Ismā'îl when listening to the slaughtering order from Ibra>hi>m. Although there is no indication in the verse that reffer to communicative process in Ismā'îl to response that command. But in the context of communication, the reception of the message conveyed, allows him to respond the message. To provide a response, symbol processing is needed. So that it can provide an appropriate response. Therefore, to find this process, this study uses a text analysis method with a Sufi Psychological approach. By using these methods and approaches, this study concludes that intrapersonal communication in Ismā’îl involves self-entities consisting of al-rûh}, ...

Al-Qur’an is the text that contains i’jāz. However, there are disagreements about i’jāz criteria. Some people think that i’jāz is outside the text, while others assume i’jāz is in the Qur’an itself. One of the scholars who agreed that i’jāz al-Qur'an is in the text of the Qur’an is Abd al-Qāhir al-Jurjānī. However, al-Jurjānī’s explanation explaining this problem is still widely misunderstood and sometimes directs understanding of the irrational aspects. This study aims to find the reasoning i’jāz al-Qur’an according to al-Jurjānī by using the linguistic relativity approach. This study found that the problem of i’jāz al-Qur’an according to al-Jurjānī lies in the aspect of the language structure (al-naẓm) which covers the whole concept contained in the language convention. With the form of i’jāz in the form of this language allows the inability of other people to make the same thing that becomes the sign i’jāz can be explained through the concept of language relativity. Therefore...

This study was aimed to construct early of Islamic history by using sources of asbab al-nuzul. The use of the history of asbab al-nuzul was expected to provide a critique of the revisionist’s view of the early of Islam. This study used two methods, the historical critical method and hermeneutics. Data on in this study focused on asbab al-nuzul al-Qur’an by al-Wahidi. The study concluded that the asbab al-nuzul, which seen as an exegesis device, basically was a historical device that provided historical narrative and context in the early days of Islam. Because of this, asbab al-nuzul was used by many commentators as a tool for understanding the Qur’an. This research found that Islam emerged in Hijaz with a number of narratives asbab al-nuzul that mentioned. Likewise, it was found the intersection of Islam with other religions indicated that Islam was not exclusive and was not a continuation of these religions. Islam was present in a mulitireligious society. Islam existed to restore t...

Interpretation is a major component in providing arguments about gender equality in Islam. Interpretation as an explanation of the Qur'an provides for everyone to form their religious behavior. For example the biased interpretation of surah al-Nisâ (4): 1 which explain about relationship between women and men. Some feminist reviewers in Indonesia respond to these interpretations which resulting in several trends. On the basis of this, this study aims to identify some of the trends generated by feminist reviewers in Indonesia by limiting a number of figures, namely M. Qurasih Shihab, Nasaruddin Umar, Husein Muhammad, Faqihuddin Abdul Kodir, Musdah Mulia, and Zaitunah Subhan by using Gadamer's hermeneutic method. This study found that there were two trends by the feminist reviewers. First, the tendency of interpretation which involves the discourse of the text to find the main idea (world view) of the text, so that the resulting interpretation has a moderate tendency. Second, ...

This paper attempts to identify the character and form of interpretation al-Ghazâlî against the Koran, especially when interpreting the verses of the Koran in one of his work, <em>Mishkât al-Anwâr</em>. When viewed from the authority of the text and the author (interpreter), the style of the interpretation of al-Ghazâlî appears to have similarities with the concept of philosophical hermeneutics of Gadamer. But it is not so, there are significant differences between the two. If Gadamer’s model interpretation is called Philosophical Hermeneutics, then the interpretation of al-Ghazâlî style more to the Sufi Hermeneutics. In the end, this paper concluded that al-Ghazâlî’s Sufi Hermeneutics rests on two elements are simples but not smalls; rationality (<em>al-ma‘qûl</em>) led by entities in it like the soul (<em>al-nafs</em>), soul (<em>al-rûh</em>), heart (<em>al-qalb</em>), intellect (<em>al-‘aql</em>), and textual...
