Not Eight, But Four: Muhammad Syahrūr’s Reconstruction of Mustaḥiq Zakah’s Classification

This article analyzes Muhammad Syahrūr’s thoughts on the mustaḥiq zakah (zakat recipient) classification based on his interpretation of Qur’anic verse QS. al-Taubah [9]: 60. Syahrūr’s perspective is unique because it challenges the classification of mustaḥiq zakah that Islamic jurists have widely accepted. The article uses a literature review with a Gadamer hermeneutic approach. Data was collected through text studies and analyzed using descriptive-analytical techniques. The study found that Syahrūr classified mustaḥiq zakah into four categories: fakīr (poor person), miskīn (needy person), ghārim (the debtor), and ibn sabīl (wayfarer). Using a scientific-historical approach, Syahrūr expanded the meaning of fakīr to include orphans, miskīn to include people with special needs, ghārim to include debts for paying diyah (blood money) for wrongful killing (al-qatl al-khaṭa’), and ibn sabīl, which refers to travelers. Syahrūr’s interpretation of QS. al-Taubah [9]: 60 is a product of his scientific-historical approach, which he developed while in Moscow under the influence of the prevailing logic of the time (episteme), the structuralism of Russian formalism, and his linguistic teacher, Ja’far Dak al-Bāb. Syahrūr’s approach required him to observe the contemporary object’s condition in understanding QS. al-Taubah [9]: 60. The poor conditions in Syria, both internal and external factors, influenced Syahrūr’s interpretation of QS. al-Taubah [9]: 60.

Adaptation For Islamic Animation Storytelling: The Rhetorical Approach of Al-Mau’izah Al-Hasanah in Tafseer Al-Azhar

Al-Mau’izah Al-Hasanah is among the three Islamic Da’wah Methods that uses rhetorical strategies in da’wah dissemination. The method is based on Surah An-Nahl verse 125 in the Qur’an. As the verses of the Qur’an uses an Arabic text, Muslim need to use Tafseer as a guideline to enhance their understanding and knowledge of Islamic teaching. This is because not all Muslims are specialists in the Arabic language, despite being able to read the Quran in Arabic. Tafseer Al-Azhar is an interpretation of Qur'anic verses written by Abdul Malik Karim Amrullah (Hamka) during his prison sentence. Hamka is an Indonesian philosopher who is also actively involved in teaching Islam through his country's educational system. The Al-Azhar exegesis book is notable for its use of rhetoric to explain the meaning of Qur'anic verses for Muslims' comprehension of the Arabic text of the Qur'an. The purpose of this research is to examine the rhetorical strategy employed in Hamka's Tafseer Al-Azhar. By referencing the exegesis content of Fatihah verses in Tafseer Al-Azhar, this study focuses solely on the rhetorical method of Al-Mau'izah Al-Hasanah. This study employed the qualitative method by analyzing the content of books and journals related to Tafseer Al-Azhar. The rhetorical material in Tafseer Al-Azhar is distinctive in that Hamka used rhyme and aesthetics language to convey the narrative of its interpretation. It is interesting to mention that Islamic Animation Storytelling of Qur'anic verses could be derived from the rhetorical substance provided in the Tafseer Al-Azhar.

Unravelling the Complexity and Diversity in Quranic Interpretation: A Scopus-based Analysis of Tafsir Literature

Unravelling the Complexity and Diversity in Quranic Interpretation: A Scopus-based Analysis of Tafsir Literature

Intratextuelle Koranexegese

The article »Intratextual Quranic exegesis« by Nour Khalife deals with the method of interpreting the Quran through the Quran (tafsīr al-Qurʾān bi-l-Qurʾān) and discusses it using the example of the extensive and modern Quranic commentary al-Mīzān fī tafsīr al-Qurʾān by the Iranian scholar and philosopher Sayyid Muḥammad Ḥusain Ṭabāṭabāʾī (d. 1981). In it, the author examines the extent to which this method is actually applicable with regard to the aforementioned Quranic commentary and has shaped it. To this end, the author takes up essential aspects of intratextual Quranic exegesis, which, in contrast to intertextual Quranic exegesis, has apparently been applied in this form by few Quranic exegetes up to now, in which the author also sees the significance of her research work, and first reflects on important principles of both Sunni and Shiite Quranic interpretation before going into greater detail on the corresponding foundations and rules of the method of tafsīr al-Qurʾān bi-l-Qurʾān. She then uses the Ṭabāṭabāʾī’s commentary on the Quran to study and analyze its structure and method as this commentary has achieved a wide range and special scholarly recognition within the Shiite denomination, while outside Shiite research and scholarship it has been insufficiently treated in comparison. Probably the most important part of her work is carried out by means of a practical example of interpretation, which refers to the 114th sura of the Quran, sūrat an-nās, and by means of which she shows how Ṭabāṭabāʾī proceeds exactly in his intratextual exegesis and which other points of view, such as philosophical, mystical, and sociological, play an equally important role in his interpretation of the Quran.

Subhani's Interest in Lexical Meanings and Etymology of Quran Translation/ Interpretation (1951- 1990)

This study explores the approach/method of Nasir Sobhani, who was one of the Kurdish scholars in the field of Quranic translation/ interpretation. Sobhani left a rich heritage in Quranic translation in three languages, namely Kurdish, Arabic and Persian. Due to the linguistic richness of his works, this study aims to probe certain linguistic aspects in his products, namely lexically and etymologically. The current study has three parts. Part one provides a brief biographical introduction to the life of Sobhani. Part two sheds light on the lexical meanings, and part three deals with etymology. According to the data analysis, it can be concluded that Sobhani, in his Quranic translation, relied heavily upon linguistics as a means of interpretation, and he differentiated between the linguistic meaning on one hand, and the Quranic meaning on the other hand. He relied on the former to investigate the latter. Thus, this approach/ method in Quranic interpretation is worthy of scholarly investigation and criticism.

Mohammed Arkoun’s Thought on Sharia Deconstruction: A Historical and Anthropological Approach

This article explores Mohammad Arkoun’s thoughts on understanding Islamic Sharia in the modern world. Arkoun’s thought differs from previous Islamic thinkers in analyzing Islamic texts. Arkoun exceeded the limit of traditional Islamic studies by utilizing several elements from Modern Western philosophy, social sciences, and humanities. Arkoun took this effort to realize his ambition, which was the combination of valuable thoughts from Islamic notions and modern philosophy. In the philosophy of Islamic law, the combination in line with the particular theorem stated: “al-muhāfaẓah `alā al-qadīm al-ṣālih wa al-akhdzu `alā al-jadīd al-aṣlah” (literary means keeping good old traditions and adopting a new better ones). Islamic sharia should be related to historical context. According to Arkoun, the traditional and textual paradigm in understanding Islamic sharia leads people to misunderstand Quranic interpretation. People sanctify Islamic thoughts instead of understanding the substantial meaning behind the Quranic texts. Arkoun called this phenomenon “taqdīs al-Afkār ad dīniyyah” (sanctifying religious thoughts). This study finds that Arkoun’s thoughts are close to an anthropological and historical approach. The Quranic interpretation has to look at both universal and particular texts of the Quran by deconstructing the logic and discourse that underlay the emergence of these texts.
 
 Keywords: Muhammad Arkoun, Quranic interpretation, sharia deconstruction, historical and anthropological approach.

Resurrection in the Holy Quran Interpretation of the optimal model (objective study)

في بحثنا الموسوم (المعاد في القرآن الكريم- تفسير الأمثل أنموذجاً- دراسة موضوعية) بيّنا فيه ما يأتي: حياة آية الله العظمى الشيخ ناصر مكارم الشيرازي، إذ تناولت اسمه ونسبه، وولادته ونشأته، وأبرز تلامذته، وآثاره العلمية. ثمَّ عرجّنا بعد ذلك لبيان مفهوم المعاد وشبهة الأكل والمأكول، إذ تناولت المعاد في اللغة، وفي اصطلاح المتكلمين، وبيان أقوال العلماء في ذلك، فضلاً عن بيان شبهة الأكل والمأكول. ذُكر اسم المعاد في القرآن الكريم في كثير من الآيات القرآنية الكريمة، وبألفاظٍ وتعابيرٍ مختلفة ومتنوعة، وكلّ لفظ منها يدلّ على قيام الساعة وإعادة الخلق بعد موتهم مرّة أخرى، وتعدّ هذه الآيات دلائل وبراهين قاطعة على المعاد والجزاء، والحساب والعقاب، والثواب والرجوع إلى الله سبحانه وتعالى، ومن تلك الاسماء التي وردت في القرآن الكريم: (القيامة، والبعث، وإحياء الموتى، والرجوع إلى الله، والحشر، ولقاء الله، والنشر).

Polygamy: Uncovering the effect of patriarchal ideology on gender-biased interpretation

Polygamy, which was practiced without limitations in the past, had been restricted to four wives after the arrival of Islam in the Arabian Peninsula. However, some scholars have different views on this issue, supposedly influenced by the literal and cultural background of patriarchal tradition on treating women as the object of polygamy. This article attempts to examine the construction of patriarchal interpretation in a gender-biased interpretation, its factors and its implications. This study adopts a qualitative approach and employs a content analysis approach. Interviews with relevant scholars are also used to explore in-depth information regarding this subject. The object of research is based on a full set (30 juz/chapters) of 11 books of tafsir written in Indonesia. These books are Tafsir Al-Furqan, Tafsir Quran, Adz-Dzikra: Terjemah dan Tafsir al-Quran, Al-Quran dan Terjemahnya, Tafsir Quran Karim, Tafsir al-Azhar, Tafsir Rahmat, Tafsir al-Quran al-Majid an-Nur, Tafsir al-Mishbah, Al-Quran and its Exegesis of the Department of Religion, and Tafsir al-Hijri. This study found that women have been exploited through polygamy practices. Our findings show that biased gender interpretation, especially because of the patriarchal mindset, brought a greater impact on the Quranic interpretation. This study suggested that reinterpretation towards Quranic verses particularly dealing with gender issues needs to be strengthened in accordance with justice and humanistic values.Contribution: This article offered two approaches for the study of the Quran in order to establish gender equality and justice in marriage practice. Firstly, the adaptive and humanistic interpretations of the Quran need to be strengthened and should raise common consciousness in Muslim society. Secondly, there is a need to study the Quran in an integrative, holistic and hermeneutical understanding of the Quranic text. This method can explore the deepest meaning of the Quran so it can rise gender-sensitive, humanist and moderate interpretations.

The progressiveness of Quranic interpretation in the fatwa of Muhammadiyah on female circumcision

The Indonesian Muslim community has been accustomed to requesting and carrying out religious Fatwas related to ibadah (worship) or mu’amalah (worldly dealings) in religious organizations that gave rise to various Fatwas, such as Muhammadiyah, Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), and the Indonesian Ulama Council (MUI). This paper focuses on female circumcision, by comparing how the same Quranic verses and Hadith can have various interpretations and Fatwas. Although the source of producing the Fatwa is the same (al-Quran and Hadith), the Fatwa that emerges from three Islamic organization are completely different. Qualitative research methods include interviews and literature review, with Fatwas from religious organizations and interviews being the primary sources. This research concludes that Fatwa from Muhammadiyah is considered the most progressive and has a strong perspective on gender equality and justice by prohibiting female circumcision. On the other hand, the Fatwa from NU and MUI supports and allows female circumcision, even though it has negative impacts on women and baby girls, including the death of baby girls.

STAGNASI TAFSIR FALSAFI DAN KURIOSITAS AL-QURAN

Tafsir Falsafi (philosophical exegesis) is one of of the Islamic intellectual resource that have occupied the intellectualism of Muslim thinkers since the early period. However, the epistemological side of the interpretation model was problematic, as it creates controversy among the readers. Today, the controversy is still frequently found from some thinkers of the Quranic studies. This paper discusses Muhammad Husain al-Zahabi’s thoughts on philosophical interpretation. Utilized a library research, this paper uses content analysis method to analyze al-Zahabi's thoughts. This paper emphasizes that in al-Zahabi's works, especially in his book, al-Tafsir wa al-Mufassirun, he rejected philosophical interpretations which only make products of Greek philosophical thought as the main tools Quranic interpretation. Offered by Muslim philosophers such as al-Farabi, Ibn Sina and the Ikhwanus Shafa, It was considered by al-Zahabi to be very dangerous for the Muslims faith. In addition, their offer of interpretation model is considered far from the truth value of religion (Islam). However, this assessment actually confirms the stagnation of philosophical interpretation in the constellation of Islamic thought so that it has an impact on the weak implementation of the Qur'anic curiosity.

Pemaknaan Bumi Berbicara Menurut Mufasir Klasik dan Modern

In the development of Quran interpretation, the approach of science has been used, which is considered the most contemporary approach to understanding verses related to the universe. Among the paradigm shifts in the interpretation of the Quran caused by the use of a scientific approach, is the emergence of an understanding of verses that were originally associated with a certain time, such as the impending apocalypse, then changed that in fact the verse is not an explanation of the events of the doomsday, such as the change in understanding of verse 4 in sura al-Zalzalah which states that at the time of the earthquake, the earth speaks to man. This article is a results of the research on the tafsir al-Jāmi’ li Ahkām al-Qur’ān by imam al-Qurṭubī and Kitab Al-Qur’an dan Tafsirnya (Edisi yang Disempurnakan) compiled by the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia by qualitative methods. This article concludes that classical and modern exegetes have similarities in interpreting the earth speak. The equation is that when the earth is shaken it releases its burden in the form of rocks and other objects. After examining these objects, they can provide information about human actions that have occurred at certain times. The Geologists can also get information about when the earthquake occurred at a certain time from the records found on rocks and coral reefs.

Animal Welfare from Islamic Perspective

تفسیرِ قرآن کے داخلی و خارجی ذرائع۔ حمید الدین فراہی اور امین احسن اصلاحی کے افکار کی روشنی میں

Tafthir (Quranic exegesis) is a significant science that pursues the interpretation of Quran by various means. Hamiduddin Farahi was a renowned Islamic Scholar of India, who is famous for his notion of Nazm (conherence). Amin Ahsan Islahi, an eminent Muslim Scholar of Pakistani, who wrote many books and a well-known exegesis Tadabar-ul-Quran, offered unique internal and external sources of commentary of Quran. Islahi and Frahi presented the notion of nazm and sources of exegesis in a way that was unique from ancestors (Jamhur). Amin Ahsan Islahi gave distinctive principles of Quranic exegesis by separating internal and external sources used for commentary of Quran. There exists a great debate over his exclusive principles of Qur’anic commentary as he refers to the discipline (Nazm) and language of Quran as internal sources while traditions, archaeology and history as external sources. This article discusses the internal and external sources of Qur'anic exegesis in the light of Amin Ahsan Islahi's and Farahi’s thoughts.

اعجاز ِقرآن کا سائنسی پہلو (جدید سائنسی انکشافات کے تناظر میں ایک جائزہ)

On contrary to the people of ancient societies- who lacked the ability to be trustees of eternal divine law (Shariah) because they used to rely only on their senses- as human perception progressed to a higher level, they were given the eternal divine rule in the form of the Quran- Allah's greatest outstanding miracle. One of the remarkable features of Quran is that it is scientific. The guidance of Quran is eternal and science also keeps coming up with new discoveries. In such a situation, question arises how important and essential is the interpretation of Quran according to the modern scientific revelations? In this regard, a comparative and descriptive research study has been conducted to clarify recent scientific breakthroughs and discoveries in Quran interpretation. The research addresses many modern mind questions. The paper is also a respond to the Quranic call of attention to the signs found on the earth and in the skies in order for man to contemplate them, have faith in Him. We also come across that we don't even have to resort to interpretations in many places rather we can translate the verses in straight and simple way.
