Abstract

Contemporary mindfulness research has been dominated by secular psychological paradigms, leaving the Qur’anic conception of consciousness insufficiently theorized. This article seeks to develop a Qur’anic mindfulness construct by integrating insights from classical and modern Qur’anic exegesis and examining its relationship with David R. Hawkins’ map of consciousness. Employing qualitative library research, the study analyzes two influential commentaries: Tafsīr al-Kabīr of Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī and Tafsir al-Azhar of Hamka. The findings demonstrate that Qur’anic mindfulness constitutes a psychospiritual model of consciousness grounded in divine awareness, emotional regulation, and moral transformation. The construct operates through interconnected mechanisms of dhikr, reflective self-awareness, tawakkul, tazkiyat al-nafs, and patient engagement with emotional experiences. While Hawkins’ framework helps illuminate gradations of consciousness, the Qur’anic model extends beyond psychological states by incorporating transcendental orientation and ethical accountability. Furthermore, the study identifies two complementary exegetical approaches: al-Rāzī develops an epistemological and text-centered formulation of consciousness, whereas Hamka emphasizes its contextual and practical dimensions. The article contributes to the growing field of Islamic psychology by proposing a theoretically grounded model of Qur’anic mindfulness that may serve as a foundation for future psychospiritual intervention studies.

Abstract

The story of Adam and Hawa is mentioned in various chapters of the Qur’an. The author is interested in examining this narrative, particularly regarding the truth of whether they were placed in His paradise. Different understandings from some commentators understand that they are in the paradise of the afterlife as a place of reward, while others understand it only as a worldly symbol. This study uses Michael Riffaterre’s semiotic approach which includes two reading models: heuristic and retroactive. This type of research is library research with a focus on the verses of the Qur’an related to the story of Adam and Hawa in paradise until their expulsion and descent to earth. The results of the heuristic reading show that Adam dan Hawa are in paradise by obeying the commands and avoiding the prohibitions, especially avoiding not approaching the tree in paradise. Meanwhile, the retroactive reading of al-Jannah is not paradise of the afterlife but rather a symbol of worldly pleasures, the violation of which is a transition of status that implies a fall from glory and then receiving forgiveness from Allah until being appointed as a prophet.
