Abstract

This article aims to examine the contextualization of the understanding of the hadith stating that “travel is part of torment” (al-safar qit‘atun min al-‘adhāb) in the contemporary context. The hadith explains that travel may reduce a person’s comfort in eating, drinking, and sleeping and encourages travelers to return to their families after completing their needs. This hadith needs to be understood contextually because the conditions of travel during the Prophet’s time differed significantly from those of the present day, particularly in terms of transportation and travel facilities. This study employs a qualitative method with a library research approach by examining relevant hadith literature, classical commentaries, and other related sources. The results show that the term ‘adhāb in the hadith does not refer to physical punishment, but rather metaphorically describes the difficulties, fatigue, discomfort, separation from family, and potential disruption of worship experienced during travel. In the contemporary context, modern transportation and travel facilities can reduce some of these difficulties. Therefore, the hadith remains relevant when the underlying cause (‘illah) of difficulty and discomfort is present in a journey. Conversely, when such difficulties are absent, the understanding of the hadith should be considered according to the circumstances of the journey.
