Abstract

This study examines gender ambivalence in Hamka’s interpretation of gender-related Qur’anic verses in Tafsir al-Azhar. While previous studies have generally portrayed Hamka either as a modernist reformer or as an exegete who reproduces patriarchal views, little attention has been paid to the ambivalent character of his interpretations of gender relations and the socio-epistemological factors shaping them. Addressing this gap, the study aims to analyze how Islamic modernist ideals and patriarchal traditions coexist within Hamka’s interpretation of gender-related Qur’anic verses. Employing discourse analysis and Karl Mannheim’s sociology of knowledge, the study investigates Hamka’s interpretations of Q. al-Baqarah [2]: 222–223 and 282, as well as Q. al-Nisā’ [4]: 1 and 34. The findings reveal a pattern of gender ambivalence in which egalitarian and patriarchal tendencies operate simultaneously. In some interpretations, Hamka reinforces male authority and women’s subordinate positions, while in others he emphasizes reciprocity and mutual responsibility, and critiques patriarchal practices. This ambivalence emerges from the interaction of three factors: a predominantly textual-reflective interpretive approach that seeks limited contextualization, a stronger concern with the maqāṣid of the verses than with theorizing gender relations, and the influence of Hamka’s socio-historical background, particularly the encounter between Islamic modernism and Minangkabau cultural traditions. By conceptualizing gender ambivalence as an analytical framework for examining tensions between egalitarian and patriarchal tendencies in Qur’anic interpretation, this study contributes to the field of Qur’anic gender studies. It demonstrates how socio-historical contexts shape the production of exegetical discourse.

Abstract

This study aims to design, test the feasibility of, and evaluate the impact of using the betabalaghah.web.id/auth web-based Balaghah learning application (BETA Platform) in enhancing student learning mobility and self-regulated learning at UIN Sayyid Ali Rahmatullah Tulungagung. Utilizing Borg and Gall’s Research and Development (R&D) framework modified into six stages by Ainin, the study conducted a needs assessment, product engineering, and empirical evaluations. Feasibility testing through expert judgment revealed exceptionally high validity levels: content validity at 90% (Highly Valid), visual interface design at 86% (Highly Valid), and software engineering at 92% (Highly Valid), corroborated by end-user usability testing categorized as Highly Practical. The research novelty lies in integrating a responsive, cross-platform web architecture with micro-learning modules for classical linguistic content (turats) without requiring app installation. The study’s primary contribution is transforming traditional, passive Balaghah instruction into a dynamic, student-centered autonomous learning ecosystem. Theoretically, this study advances digital Arabic language pedagogy; practically, it provides a flexible, ubiquitous learning solution that facilitates self-paced study unrestricted by temporal or spatial constraints, directly supporting national strategic goals (RIRN and Asta Cita) to cultivate superior human resources for the Industry 5.0 era.
