Abstract

This article delves into the pattern of interpretation or approach taken by Malik Bennabi in understanding the Qur'an. Malik Bennabi's approach to revelation is integral in nature. By examining Malik's work, "The Phenomenon of the Qur'an," Usman draws the conclusion that Malik Bennabi successfully provided a mature response to the challenges posed by Western philosophy and thought in viewing the Qur'an. By positioning the Qur'anic revelation as an objective phenomenon that transcends all historical contexts and various forms of socio-cultural backgrounds, Malik Bennabi was able to address Orientalists who denied and sought to sow doubts about the truth of the Qur'an as the revelation of God. Malik Bennabi responded to Margelyouth (an English Orientalist) and his colleagues who regarded the Qur'an as a product of Prophet Muhammad or a copy of the Torah and the Gospel, or who claimed that the Qur'an was influenced by both of these covenant books. Through his work, Malik Bennabi also indirectly rejected the philology of Christoph Luxenberg (a German Orientalist) who came much later, accusing the Qur'an of being originally written in Aramaic rather than Arabic.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the human role in maintaining environmental harmony from the perspective of Seyyed Hossein Nasr. The study is motivated by the escalating environmental crisis in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, the widening gap between technical solutions and the spiritual dimensions of environmental degradation, and the need to incorporate a comprehensive Islamic philosophical perspective into contemporary environmental discourse. The novelty of this research lies in its analysis of human existence as khalīfah (vicegerent) on earth within Nasr's thought and its relevance to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This research employs a library-based qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical method through content analysis of Seyyed Hossein Nasr's primary works, supported by Qur'anic exegesis, Islamic philosophical literature, and contemporary environmental studies, while adopting Ziauddin Sardar's framework of environmental ethics. The findings reveal that the root cause of the environmental crisis lies in the loss of the sacred perception of nature and the dominance of a materialistic worldview that disrupts cosmic balance. According to Nasr, nature is a manifestation of divine signs, and human beings, as khalīfah, bear the responsibility of preserving and maintaining its harmony. Therefore, addressing the environmental crisis requires the reconstruction of spiritual consciousness through the reaffirmation of the principle of tawḥīd and the integration of scientific knowledge with ethical values to foster a harmonious relationship between humanity and nature.
