Abstract

This study examines the dynamics of Qur'an translation in Indonesia, focusing on the relationship between modern Islamic movements and the development of tafsiriyah translations. Through a case study of the work of Muhammad Thalib, the leader of the Indonesian Mujahidin Council (MMI), this article shows that Qur'an translation not only functions as a religious or linguistic activity, but is also used as a political and ideological tool to fight for the formalization of Islamic law in national life. This study uses a library study method with a discourse analysis approach to the translated texts of Thalib's tafsiriyah and MMI movement documents. The results reveal that Thalib's tafsiriyah translations, particularly his work entitled Al-Qur'anul Karim: Tarjamah Tafsiriyah, were developed as a corrective response to the official translation of the Ministry of Religious Affairs, as well as a medium for disseminating Islamist discourse that emphasizes the enforcement of sharia in its entirety, rejection of religious pluralism, and criticism of the democratic system. Analysis of several key verses shows that Thalib's interpretation tends to direct the meaning of the verses according to the movement's agenda, such as emphasizing male leadership (Q.S. an-Nisa: 34), the state's obligation to collect zakat (Q.S. at-Taubah: 103), and the integrity of the implementation of sharia (Q.S. Ali Imran: 103). Thus, this article concludes that the development of tafsiriyah translations in Indonesia cannot be separated from the socio-political context after the 1998 Reformation, where Islamic movements utilized freedom of expression to fight for their ideological visions through the medium of translating holy books.

Abstract

This study aims to construct and analyze the theory of limits as an epistemological instrument for interpretive renewal in the thought of Fazlur Rahman and Abdul Aziz. The primary focus of this study is to understand how these two figures place the limits of rationality and the authority of revelation in the process of interpreting the Qur'an. This study uses a qualitative approach with library research and applies a philosophical-hermeneutic approach. Data were obtained from the main works of Fazlur Rahman (Islam and Modernity, Major Themes of the Qur'an) and Abdul Aziz (Limit Theory in Islamic Epistemology, Contemporary Islamic Epistemological Reform), then analyzed using content analysis with a comparative-critical approach. The results show that Fazlur Rahman emphasizes limits as the moral boundaries of the Qur'an that keep interpretation rooted in the values of revelation, while Abdul Aziz formulates limits as an epistemic framework that regulates the extent to which rationality can play a role in interpreting divine texts. The two combine to form a conceptual synthesis that suggests that limit theory serves as an epistemological balancing mechanism between freedom of thought and adherence to revelation. This research contributes to strengthening the epistemological aspect of exegetical methodology and offers a sustainable paradigm of exegesis (afsir) that is rational, contextual, and maintains divine value.

Abstract

This article formulates an integrative model for interpreting Qur’anic verses on gender relations through Amina Wadud’s tawhidic hermeneutics and Faqihuddin Abdul Kodir’s qira’ah mubadalah. The central question is how tawhid, justice, and reciprocity may become an exegetical procedure that preserves textual authority while preventing patriarchal bias in meaning production. This study employs qualitative library research using descriptive-analytical and thematic-critical analysis of Wadud’s and Kodir’s primary works, selected Qur’anic verses, and contemporary scholarship on gender-sensitive exegesis. The analytical procedure consists of linguistic analysis, socio-historical contextualization, intra-textual coherence, formulation of universal principles, mubadalah-based reciprocity, and maqasid/harm analysis. The application to Q. 9:71, Q. 33:35, and Q. 4:34 demonstrates that the tawhidic–mubadalah integration expands the moral subject of the verses, interprets qiwamah as functional and conditional responsibility, understands nusyuz as a two-way relational problem, and affirms non-violent conflict resolution within family ethics.
