Rationality in the Qur'an: Integrating Reason and Revelation for Contemporary Islamic Education

Scholars explore the concept of rationality from various angles, often associating it with thinking that transcends divine considerations. In these debates, some academics have positioned themselves against the Quran, questioning its consistency with rational thought—however, many scholars argue that the Quran addresses subjects metaphysically, harmonizing reason and revelation. A detailed examination reveals numerous verses advocating reasoning, critical thinking, and empirical analysis. These verses invite believers to reflect on natural phenomena, historical events, and ethical dilemmas, underscoring the Quran's emphasis on intellectual engagement and moral discernment. This paper elucidates the Quran's nuanced approach to rationality by analyzing over five dozen Quranic verses that directly or indirectly discuss the nature and application of reason. Using Islamic research methodologies, it highlights the balance between reason and spirituality, showing that rational thinking is integral to Quranic teachings. This study addresses skeptical or misleading criticisms, affirming that the Quran integrates reason and revelation to offer a comprehensive intellectual and spiritual development framework. Future research should examine how Quranic rationality informs contemporary Islamic thought and practice, especially concerning modern scientific and ethical challenges. Comparative studies between Quranic perspectives on rationality and other philosophical or religious traditions are also recommended to foster interfaith and intercultural understanding.

Islam as an Epitome of Best of Morality and Ethics: Reflections on Dissent and Peace in Islam Through Quranic Verses

This paper explores the Islamic ideals of peace and dissent through the text of the Holy Quran. Prevailing Western talks about Islam portray the Islamic religion as being nontolerant of different beliefs. Notwithstanding, a nearby perusing of the Islamic canon, essentially the Holy Quran, shows that as opposed to this talk, Islamic standards fuse an ethic of peacefulness and claims dissent, quiet concurrence as well as, positive unification of opinions for contrasts and receptiveness to progress through discourse. The instances of contemporary Islamic strict ideas and social practices that encapsulate these positive standards show that this is not only a chronologically erroneous interpretation of the group but a functioning living Islamic practice. The paper concludes that the state's dysfunctional characteristics discourage dissent for its own political and social interests. However, Islam is a religion of peace and directs its followers to solve any matter through consent and mutual respect.

The Spirit and Holy Spirit in The Quran and its Exegeses

The term ‘Holy Spirit’ is referenced four times in the Quran, with three instances directly related to Jesus Christ, while the broader term ‘spirit’ or “the spirit” (al-Rūḥ) appears eighteen times, some of which pertain to Mary, the mother of Jesus. This study explores the concepts of the Spirit and Holy Spirit as they are presented in the Quran, as well as their interpretations in classical Islamic exegesis. The research begins by analyzing the Quranic verses where the “Holy Spirit” is associated with Jesus Christ and his mother, providing a detailed examination of these occurrences and their contextual significance. Subsequently, the study delves into the instances of the “Holy Spirit” in other contexts, offering a comparative analysis of the term’s usage across different passages. Following the discussion on the “Holy Spirit,” the study shifts focus to the discussion of “the spirit” (al-Rūḥ) and “a spirit” (Rūḥ) in the Quran. Adopting the same methodological approach, it first addresses the verses connected to Jesus and Mary, before exploring the diverse contexts in which the spirit is mentioned. In each case, the relevant Quranic interpretations are discussed, drawing from key Quranic commentaries (tafsīr). The study relies on a combination of classical exegetical methods, incorporating both narration-based exegesis (tafsīr bi-l-ma'thūr), such as the works of al-Ṭabarī and al-Baghawī, and reasoning-based exegesis (tafsīr bi-l-ra'y), as exemplified by the works of Imām Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī. Additionally, it evaluates the authenticity and sources of the exegetes’ interpretations, scrutinizing their reliance on prophetic traditions (hadith), the explanations of the Prophet’s companions, and even biblical sources. By presenting and comparing a range of Quranic interpretations, this study aims to highlight the diversity of thought surrounding the concepts of the ‘Spirit’ and ‘Holy Spirit’ within Islamic tradition. It provides a valuable resource for those seeking to understand how these notions are interpreted and debated within Islam and offers a platform for comparison with the corresponding concepts in Christianity and Judaism, thereby contributing to broader interfaith theological dialogues.

Analisis Ayat-Ayat Al-Qur’an tentang Jahe untuk Kesehatan dalam Perspektif Al-Quran dan Sains

This study aims to analyze Quranic verses that mention ginger (Zingiber officinale), particularly in Surah Al-Insan [76:17], and to examine its benefits from both a modern scientific and Islamic spiritual perspective. The study employs a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach and thematic tafsir (maudhu'i). The primary data sources include the Qur'an and tafsir literature, while secondary sources consist of scientific research on the bioactive compounds in ginger, such as gingerol, shogaol, and zingerone. The results indicate that ginger has significant health benefits, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, immune system enhancement, and prevention of degenerative diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases. From a spiritual perspective, the mention of ginger in the Qur'an as a drink for the inhabitants of paradise symbolizes the balance between physical and spiritual blessings. The integration of Quranic teachings and modern science affirms that ginger is a blessed plant, reminding humans of the importance of maintaining health as an expression of gratitude to Allah SWT. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the relationship between scientific knowledge and revelation, while encouraging the use of herbal plants to improve quality of life.

Hafazan Al-Quran: Peringkat dan Kemahiran Hafazan

This study discusses the stages of memorization and the skills involved in Quranic memorization as essential aspects of the Quran memorization process. Within this context, an analysis was conducted on the stages of memorization through the lens of the memorization skills involved in the new memorization process (hifz jadid). The methodology of this study employs a literature review and document analysis related to the methodology of Quranic memorization. The findings of the study reveal three aspects of Quranic memorization skills, encompassing the memorization limit, repetition limit, and recitation levels. The results indicate that the stages of memorization do not end at the quantity of Quranic verses that have been memorized (tasmik), but also encompass the evaluation of memorization skills. Therefore, this study is expected to provide an approach to the Quran memorization process, along with the specialization of suitable methods and techniques for memorization.

Telaah terhadap Status dan Kedudukan Perempuan dalam Islam Perspektif Mubadalah

The testimony of women is the focus, with scholars holding diverse views regarding the eligibility of women as witnesses. In some contexts, such as muamalah, women are allowed to testify, while in fiqh jinayah, their testimony is strictly prohibited. It is essential to interpret Quranic verses using a broader and more comprehensive approach, connecting them to the conditions of women during the time of the Quran’s revelation. QS Al-Baqarah (2): 282 should be seen as progress, as it acknowledges the role of women as witnesses, a recognition that was previously absent during the Jahiliyyah period. This verse affirms the status of women as autonomous legal subjects, reflecting humanitarian values. The interpretation of this verse should be contextual, not merely literal, and adapted to the changing times based on the mubadalah perspective. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method and literature review techniques to collect primary and secondary data. The aim is to answer the posed questions and explain the status of women from a mubadalah perspective. QS Al-Baqarah (2): 282 is viewed as progress because it acknowledges women as witnesses, even though at that time, they were largely confined to the domestic sphere. The interpretation of this verse must be analyzed historically and contextually, considering social changes that have opened access for women to various public domains. Individual competence and understanding, rather than gender, should be the basis for evaluating testimony, as recognized by classical and contemporary scholars. Thus, the equal value of women's testimony with that of men aligns with the principles of justice and humanity in Islam

An Examination of Jurists' Views on Combining Two Prayers

Prayer is the second pillar of Islam and holds significant importance for specific conditions and pillars. One of the prerequisites for the validity of prayer is knowledge of its designated times. Numerous Quranic verses and narrations emphasize the necessity of performing prayers at prescribed times and highlight their preference for doing so. Combining the two prayers has long been a contentious ijtihadi issue, with jurists and scholars offering various perspectives. Each school of thought supported its position through distinct arguments. The central question is whether combining these two prayers is permissible. The significance of this research lies in addressing practical issues. It is often heard that some people assume the permissibility of combining two prayers, particularly during travel, by analogy with breaking the fast or shortening prayers. However, acts of worship cannot be established through analogy. The research method was analytical and descriptive, as the topic did not involve fieldwork. Trusted and authoritative sources, including hadith collections and reliable jurisprudential texts of the four Sunni schools of thought, were used. The findings of this study support and give preference to the Hanafi position, which holds that combining these two prayers is impermissible.

Tafsir Ayat Al-Quran sebagai Pendidik

This study examines the role of interpretation of Qur'anic verses as an educational instrument in the context of contemporary Islamic learning. Through literature analysis and case studies, this study explores how the interpretation of Quranic verses can serve as an effective pedagogical tool in transmitting moral, ethical, and spiritual values to students. The main focus is given on the methodology of interpretation that is relevant to the needs of modern education, as well as its impact on the understanding and internalization of Islamic teachings by the younger generation. The results of the study show that a contextual and integrative interpretation approach has significant potential in increasing the effectiveness of Islamic education. These findings highlight the importance of adapting traditional interpretation methods to contemporary pedagogical approaches to create more meaningful and relevant learning experiences. The implications of this research include recommendations for the development of a more holistic and responsive Islamic education curriculum to the challenges of the times, as well as teacher training in using the interpretation of the Quran as a dynamic and transformative educational tool.

Developmental stages: an Islamic psychology perspective

ABSTRACT This study aims to integrate primary sources of Islamic Psychology, Quran and Hadith with psychological models to explore how various stages of life are characterized and developed according to these perspectives. Drawing on sources such as Quranic verses, Hadiths, and psychological theories, the research examines the stages of childhood, puberty, adulthood, maximum maturity, and old age. Findings indicate that Islamic teachings emphasize moral and spiritual growth, while psychological theories focus on cognitive and emotional development. It highlights the alignment and divergence between these approaches, demonstrating that Islamic perspectives on development often intersect with psychological theories but also present unique insights.

Warna Hijau di dalam al-Quran dan Peranannya Sebagai Elemen Nonfarmakologi Bagi Mengurangkan Kadar Kebimbangan (Anxiety)

Colour is a fundamental element in human life, and the Qurʾān frequently highlights specific colours to convey distinct meanings and contexts. Among these, green receives particular emphasis, suggesting symbolic and psychological significance. Beyond its scriptural usage, green is recognised in colour therapy as a non-pharmacological means of reducing anxiety. This study aims to identify and analyse Quranic verses that mention the colour green, and to examine their potential connection to its therapeutic application in alleviating anxiety. Employing an inductive method, the researcher compiled and examined the Quranic verses explicitly referencing the colour green. Preliminary findings reveal nine such verses, presenting green as indicative of plant life in this world and symbolising the blessings awaiting believers in the hereafter. From a mental health perspective, research suggests that exposure to green can help reduce anxiety levels. Thus, the Quranic emphasis on green appears to parallel the calming and restorative influence that this colour exerts on human emotions. In essence, the scriptural selection and portrayal of green harmonise with its soothing and comforting effects, offering valuable insights for both spiritual reflection and therapeutic practice.

دور أسباب النزول في إيضاح المشكل القرآني: دراسة تطبيقية

This study delves into the concept of the Quranic ambiguities and their significance, alongside identifying methods of understanding them. The researcher adopted an inductive-analytical approach, tracing what has been written about the Quranic problem and Asbab al-Nuzul, as well as some of the verses that posed challenges and the opinions of scholars and commentators regarding them, examining and analysing them. The study concluded several findings, including that Quranic ambiguities refer to Quranic verses whose meanings are unclear or ambiguous to some people, which is relative because what may be unclear to some is clear to others. Additionally, ignorance of the Asbab al-Nuzul contributes to doubts and misunderstandings. Through the applied examples studied, it became evident that Asbab al-Nuzul is one of the most important means of resolving Quranic ambiguities.

A Lexical Pragmatic Analysis of Quranic ‘Rain’ and ‘Clouds’ Concepts

This study deals with lexical pragmatic perspective not only due to its new birth but also for being a bridge that links two vivid linguistic fields that are pragmatics and semantics. On one hand, pragmatics tackles speech elements and speaker’s disclosed meaning. On the other hand, semantics is framed as the components of conceptual structure that can be represented in a certain proposition. Jackendoff (1990) comes with the concept that pragmatics and semantics, respectively, investigate how the meaning is constructed in a text regarding the speaker’s attention and the inherent meaning of words and phrases. This study examines the workability of lexical pragmatic analysis in analyzing certain Quranic lexemes concerning clouds and rain. It attempts to apply the four-leveled lexical pragmatic mutual adjustment method of analysis to selected Quranic verses highlighting both lexical and adjusted meanings of the words ‘clouds’ and ‘rain’ in the verses in question. It sums up to prove the applicability of the adopted model of analysis to the selected genre. Adjusted meaning can be interpreted either by specifying or generalizing it to fit its context.

Islam and Gender: An Exploration of Hadith on the Equality of Men and Women

This study aims to explore and analyze the concept of gender equality in hadith, with the goal of providing a clearer and more comprehensive understanding of how hadith regulates the relationship between men and women in various life contexts, whether in family, social, or professional domains. This study employs a qualitative method with a content analysis approach. The primary data sources are collections of hadith relevant to the topic of gender equality, gathered from various trusted hadith compilations. The analytical techniques used include interpretation of hadith texts, comparison with related Quranic verses, and review of classical and contemporary scholars' views on this issue. The results of the study indicate that hadith generally supports the principle of gender equality in many aspects, although there are some hadiths that require historical and sociocultural context to be comprehensively understood. These hadiths, if interpreted correctly and contextually, show that Islam provides equal rights and responsibilities between men and women and encourages respect and gender justice. However, the interpretation and implementation of gender equality in Muslim societies are often influenced by local cultural and traditional factors, which sometimes deviate from the true essence of Islamic teachings. This study highlights the importance of a critical and contextual approach in understanding hadith texts to support efforts in achieving gender equality that is just and in accordance with Islamic values.

The Quran and the Information and Communication Age (Informatics Age)

The modern era has created new concepts about how to perform new social roles in the direction of the progress of society, and in this situation, humanity is seeking to define its spiritual position and wants to clarify its values ​​depending on the rapidly changing situations. Because in our era, the general perception is that the world of religion is opposed to the world of the realities of the era. It is getting smaller and smaller because social progress somehow leads to personal rationality and a set of pragmatic social structures. Therefore, this article has tried to mention the significant role that Quranic verses have played in informatic societies (the era of communications and information) and the concepts that are derived from the verses of the Holy Quran. Because the appearance of the Quran is so systematic and internally consistent that it cannot withstand any damage. Also, the Quran should be considered to have codified foundations. It should be noted that the Quran contains a coherent and harmonious middle. That is, the ideal man of the Quran is a world-building and society-building man. He is not merely a passive man of the world and nature, but a developing and reforming man, because the holy religion of Islam has been the creator, creator, and founder of an open system for life that is not seen in any philosophical and scientific school. The structures of this vital system are: God, man, this world, and the hereafter.

Love for God: Intertextuality in Nizami Ganjavi's Leyli o Majnun and the Quran

Objectives: This study aimed to show the threads of the intertextuality that bind texts of Nizam Ganjavi’s Leyli o Majnun and the Quran together. Methods: This study used the qualitative approach. The study’s data was collected via identifying and categorizing the texts related to Allah’s love in Leyli o Majnun. Data was analyzed relying on the poetics of Julia Kristeva’s theory of intertextuality. Results: The study results showed that the Islamic values discussed in Leyli o Majnun fall into three different categories: Shari’a, ethics and doctrine. The results also showed that those Islamic values are derived from the Quranic verses. Conclusions: This study implicitly alludes to the notion that the Islamic values integrated in the body of the text are meant to show the greatness of Allah’s love. The study also recommends that the kind of love among humans portrayed in the text is nothing compared to the love that Allah reciprocates with His worshippers

Jews Stereotypes in the Arabic and Spanish Cultures: A Comparative Study

Objectives: This study primarily aims to investigate the stereotype of Jews in Arabic and Spanish cultures, where they are similarly described and portrayed. It also seeks to demonstrate that Jews are, to a great extent, negatively depicted in both cultures, emphasizing that societal stereotypes about Jews largely align in both contexts. Methods: The methodology of the study involves identifying specific stereotypes of Jews present in both Arabic and Spanish cultures. To practically compare these stereotypes, the study examines nine Quranic verses representing Jewish stereotypes and nine Spanish proverbs expressing the same stereotypes. The stereotypes are then compared across cultures. Results: The main finding of this study is that stereotypes about a particular community or nation can stem from deeply rooted literature, whether divine, like the Quran, or non-divine, like proverbs. The study concludes that Arabs and Spanish share similar negative viewpoints about Jews. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that Jews are similarly depicted in Arabic and Spanish cultures. It also highlights that both the Qur'an and Spanish proverbs serve as significant cultural and authentic references, sharing the same negative viewpoint about Jews. Furthermore, the study concludes that the impact of the Qur'an on Arabic culture is parallel to the influence of proverbs on Spanish culture.

Muqaran Tafsir Method: Its History, Basis and Implications

Tafsir, examined in terms of its methods, is divided into two categories: general and specific methods. In general, discussions on the interpretation of the Qur'an can be conducted through four methods: Ijmali (global), tahlili (analytical), muqaran (comparative), and maudu'i (thematic). One of these four methods is the muqaran method, which means comparative or comparative analysis. The discussion of muqaran explains the comparison between one interpretation and another, whether related to Quranic verses with other Quranic verses, verses with hadiths, and the opinions of commentators. The purpose of this research is to present various opinions related to the muqaran method, its emergence, foundation, and urgency, as well as its steps and the strengths and weaknesses of muqaran interpretation. This research is qualitative and employs library research by referring to previous studies. The findings indicate that muqaran interpretation has been practiced since the time of Prophet Muhammad until the present day. Muqaran interpretation is also crucial for appreciating its inherent advantages.

The Evolution of Philosophical Interpretation in Islam: From Classical to Modern

This research examines the evolution of philosophical interpretation (tafsir falsafi) from the classical to the modern period within the context of the Islamic intellectual heritage. Philosophical interpretation, integral to the journey of Muslim scholars since the classical era, serves as a "gateway" to the progress of Islamic thought. However, the philosophical nature of this interpretation has sparked controversy and is deemed problematic from an epistemological perspective, becoming a focal point of debate among the Muslim community. The research employs a library research method, utilizing various literature sources as supporting evidence, with a primary focus on both primary and secondary data. The findings indicate that the emergence of philosophical interpretation is linked to the translation of Greek works into Arabic. Some fully reject or accept it, while others integrate it with Eastern traditions. Overall, a comprehensive interpretation fully incorporating the philosophical style has not been found; usually, this style is expressed separately through writings that do not specifically interpret the Quran. The epistemology of early-generation philosophical interpretation tends to be peripatetic, involving the use of reason in discussing aspects such as divinity, the afterlife, and scientific disciplines. Some figures or philosophers relevant to the philosophical interpretation of Quranic verses include al-Kindi, al-Farabi, the Ikhwan al-Shafa order, and Ibn Sina.
