Abstract

The Quran contains verses and letters that are systematically and coherently structured, as supported by al-Zarkashi and al-Suyuti. But Richard Bell took a different view. For example, according to him, the letter Al-Hijr needed to be more systematic, and there were some errors in laying verses. Meanwhile, Michel Cuypers is serious about the Semitic Rhetorical Analysis (SRA) approach in analyzing the structure of the Qur'anic text to find a concentric, mirror, and parallel symmetrical patterns in the form of the Qur'anic text. Even this approach is Considered a modern methodology with a new type of dialogue. It is interesting to look for bright spots in the structure of surat al-Hijr from the perspective of SRA. So that raises the question of what is the form of the text of surat al-Hijr from the standpoint of SRA. A Semitic Rhetorical Analysis (SRA) approach is used to answer this question. That is by analyzing the pairing pattern of the text of surat al-Hijr so that it forms groups of text at the bottom level. The bottom level has reanalyzed the design to get groups of text at the level above it, and so on, until the top level is obtained, namely surat al-Hijr. This article concludes that SRA, according to surat al-Hijr, is a Book consisting of 13 Sections arranged in a concentric symmetrical pattern (A-B-C-B*-A*). Richard Bell's opinion is refuted because each verse in surah al-Hijr is capable of symmetry with other poems from the lowest level of the text to the top level, so this conclusion indicates that surat al-Hijr is systematically and Coherently arranged.

Abstract

AbstractUsing Western methods to study the Qur'an raises several problems and concerns. This article discusses the Islamization of the Semitic Rhetorical Analysis (SRA) method pioneered by Michel Cuypers in Qur’anic Studies. The main goal of this research is to Islamicize the SRA method to make it more harmonious with Islamic values in understanding the Quran. This qualitative case study adopts the Islamization of knowledge approach, as introduced by Syed M. Naquib Al-Attas and Ismail Raji Al-Faruqi. The findings of this study reveal that Cuypers' application of SRA in analysing Quranic texts raises concerns due to inconsistencies with the principles of interpretation within Islamic scholarship, including the neglect of sabab al-nuzūl, the absence of the hadith, the potential reduction of the meanings of Quranic verses, and occasionally arbitrary division of texts. In efforts to Islamize this method, this research recommends removing them and integrating the elements from the sciences of the Quran, such as sabab al-Nuzūl, s hadith, and the science of waqf (stopping in recitation), to fortify the analytical framework of SRA without altering its fundamental principles, including the examination of textual particle levels and various text structures like parallelism, concentric, and mirror structure. This article significantly contributes to developing Western methods to align them with Islamic principles. It addresses concerns and disagreements surrounding the application of Western methods in Quranic studies. Furthermore, it enriches Quranic studies with a more Islamic perspective, ultimately leading to enhanced and thorough comprehension of the Quran and enhancing academic insights.Keywords: Islamisation, Semitic Rhetorical Analysis (SRA)Abstrak  Penggunaan metode Barat dalam studi Al-Qur’an menimbulkan beberapa permasalahan dan kekhawatiran. Artikel ini membahas Islamisasi metode Barat dalam kajian Al-Quran, terutama pada metode Semitic Retorical Analysis (SRA) yang dipelopori oleh Michel Cuypers. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah mengislamkan metode SRA agar lebih selaras dengan nilai-nilai Islam dalam memahami Al-Quran. Penelitian studi kasus kualitatif ini mengadopsi pendekatan Islamisasi ilmu pengetahuan seperti yang diperkenalkan oleh Syed M. Naquib Al-Attas dan Isma’il Raji Al-Faruqi. Temuan penelitian ini mengungkapkan bahwa penerapan SRA oleh Cuypers dalam menganalisis teks Alquran menimbulkan kekhawatiran karena ketidaksesuaian dengan prinsip penafsiran dalam keilmuan Islam. Kritik terhadapnya meliputi pengabaian sabab al-Nuzūl, tidak merujuk pada hadis Nabi, reduksi makna ayat, dan partisi teks secara sewenang-wenang. Dalam upaya mengislamkan metode tersebut, penelitian ini menyarankan untuk menghilangkan hal-hal tersebut dan mengintegrasikan unsur-unsur ilmu Al-Quran, seperti sabab al-Nuzūl, riwayat hadis Nabi, dan ilmu waqf tanpa mengubah prinsip fundamentalnya, termasuk penentuan tingkat partikel teks dan struktur teks seperti paralelisme, konsentris, dan struktur cermin. Artikel ini memberikan kontribusi signifikan terhadap pengembangan metode Barat untuk menyelaraskannya dengan prinsip-prinsip Islam. Artikel ini menjawab kekhawatiran dan ketidaksetujuan seputar penerapan metode Barat dalam studi Al-Quran. Lebih jauh lagi, memperkaya kajian Al-Quran dengan perspektif yang lebih Islami, yang pada akhirnya mengarah pada pemahaman Al-Quran yang lebih dalam dan komprehensif serta meningkatkan wawasan akademis.Kata Kunci: Islamisasi, Semitic Rhetorical Analysis (SRA)
