Abstract

This study examines the concept of Mar'ah (women) in the Qur'an through the thematic interpretation approach. The research was motivated by the continuing debate regarding the position and role of women in Islam, which is often understood through partial interpretations of individual Qur'anic verses without considering their thematic unity. Employing a qualitative library research design, this study systematically collected and analyzed Qur'anic verses related to women by examining their linguistic meanings, semantic structures, contexts of revelation (asbab al-nuzul), Makkiyah-Madaniyah classifications, interrelationships among verses (munasabah), classical and contemporary Qur'anic exegesis, and relevant prophetic traditions. The findings reveal that the Qur'an employs various terms to describe women, including mar'ah, an-nisa', untha, zauj, umm, and banat, each representing distinct biological, relational, social, and spiritual dimensions. The study further demonstrates that the Qur'anic concept of women is constructed gradually, beginning with the establishment of theological and moral principles during the Makkan period and continuing with the regulation of social and family life during the Madinan period. Rather than portraying women as subordinate to men, the Qur'an presents women as independent moral agents possessing equal spiritual responsibility before Allah while simultaneously recognizing their complementary roles within family and society. The novelty of this research lies in its integrative thematic interpretation that combines linguistic, semantic, exegetical, and prophetic analyses to formulate a comprehensive conceptual framework of women in the Qur'an. The findings contribute to the development of Qur'anic studies, Islamic gender discourse, Islamic education, and contemporary Islamic thought concerning women's dignity and social participation.

Abstract

This Community Partnership Program (PKM) aims to enhance public historical literacy and understanding of the development of the Arabic language during the Umayyad Dynasty and its relevance to contemporary Arabic language learning. The program was implemented through a participatory educational approach consisting of lectures, interactive discussions, and participant mentoring to explore the contributions of the Umayyad Dynasty to the development of Arabic as the language of administration, government, scholarship, and Islamic civilization. The educational materials covered the Arabization policy, the development of Arabic rhetoric and literature, the transformation of Arabic poetry, and the utilization of the Islamic linguistic heritage as a valuable resource for Arabic language learning. The results of the program indicate an improvement in participants' understanding of the historical development of the Arabic language, a stronger appreciation of classical Arabic literary heritage, and greater awareness of the importance of integrating historical and cultural perspectives into Arabic language instruction. The program also encouraged participants to utilize these historical values as inspiration for developing more contextual, communicative, and culturally responsive Arabic language learning while preserving the intellectual heritage of Islamic civilization. Therefore, this Community Partnership Program contributes to strengthening historical literacy on Islamic civilization and improving the quality of Arabic language learning within the community.
