Abstract

This paper examines theological interpretation (tafsir theologis) and Sufi interpretation (tafsir sufistik) as two approaches to Qur'anic exegesis that possess distinct characteristics, methodologies, and orientations while complementing one another in understanding the messages of the Qur'an. Theological interpretation primarily aims to strengthen Islamic creed (aqidah) through rational and textual approaches in explaining concepts of divine attributes, prophethood, predestination, and other theological issues. In contrast, Sufi interpretation focuses on uncovering the inner (esoteric) meanings of the Qur'an through spiritual contemplation and self-purification without neglecting the outward (exoteric) meanings of the verses. This study aims to explain the concepts and characteristics of these two exegetical approaches, examine their respective methodologies, and analyze their relevance in addressing contemporary religious issues. The research employs a qualitative approach using library research as its primary method. Data were collected from classical and contemporary literature on theological and Sufi Qur'anic exegesis and analyzed using a descriptive-analytical method by examining, comparing, and interpreting the views of Muslim scholars and contemporary academics. The findings indicate that theological interpretation provides a systematic foundation for Islamic doctrine, whereas Sufi interpretation enriches the spiritual and ethical dimensions of religious life. The integration of these two approaches offers a comprehensive, moderate, and contextual understanding of the Qur'an that remains relevant to the challenges of contemporary society.

Abstract

This article examines the adabi ijtima'i (literary-social) style of exegesis as manifested in Tafsir al-Manar, a work born from the intellectual collaboration of Muhammad Abduh and his student, Muhammad Rasyid Ridha, as a response to the decline of the Muslim community in the face of modernity and Western colonialism. The problem addressed is how the adabi style, which emphasizes the linguistic beauty and moral message of the Qur'an, is combined with the ijtima'i style oriented toward solving the social problems of the ummah, and how both figures positioned reason and ijtihad as instruments of exegetical reform. Employing a qualitative library-based method with a historical-analytical approach, this study examines Tafsir al-Manar as a primary source alongside more than thirty recent secondary sources to map the character, strengths, and limitations of this style. The findings show that Tafsir al-Manar presents a tahlili-method tafsir bi al-ra'y that rejects blind imitation, promotes rational ijtihad, and consistently links verse meanings to actual issues such as superstition, oppression, polygamy, and education. This article argues that the adabi ijtima'i style of Abduh and Ridha laid an important foundation for contemporary contextual-thematic exegesis, while leaving a number of methodological critiques that warrant proportional scrutiny.
