Abstract

This study aims at examining the concept of the infallibility of the Prophet Muhammad as a human being in general based on the context of the interpretation of the Qur’an. This study will answer the question of why the Prophet Muhammad considered infallible, even though he had made a mistake in conducting ijtihad?. This study used qualitative methods based on the critical theory paradigm and theory of semantic analysis and historical contextual. The results showed that the Prophet Muhammad considered an infallible man based on the context of the use of “basyar” term in the Qur’an. The term “basyar” is always attached to the Prophet as the recipient of revelation, so it shows that Muhammad was an infallible human being. If the Prophet makes a mistake, he will always get a reprimand from Allah. This privilege is indeed not owned by other humans. This research ultimately refutes the argument that the Prophet’s mistake in carrying out “ijtihad” shows his ineptitude as an ordinary person.Keywords: The Ijtihad; Infallible; Muhammad as a Human Being;الملخصتهدف هذه المقالة لفحص مفهوم عصمة نبي الله محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم كبشر بشكل عام بناء على سياق تفسير القرآن الكريم. وتركز هذه الدراسة على الإجابة لتلك القضية وهي لماذا يعتبر نبي الله محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم معصومًا رغم أنه كان مخطئًا في اجتهاده؟ وتستخدم هذه الدراسة الطريقة النوعية بناء على نموذج النظرية النقدية. والنظرية التحليلية المستخدمة من خلال نظرية التحليل النحوي والسياق التاريخي. وتشير النتيجة إلى أن النظر إلي ذلك من ناحية سياق استخدام مصطلح ((البشر)) في القرآن الكريم نحو موقف النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كبشر معصوم فإنه يظهر بدقة نوعية العصمة في مجملها؛ لأن ذلك المصطلح لا يزال مرتبطًا بوظيفته كالملتقي للوحي ((يوحى))، ولذلك كان الله سبحانه وتعالى دائما  يذكره عن خطأه وهذه الخصوصية لا يملكها بشر بشكل عام. والمستفاد من هذه الدراسة وهو أن الحجة في عدم عصمة النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بسبب ارتكابه الخطأ في الاجتهاد كبشر عادي مرفوض بشكل تلقائي. الكلمات الدالة: الإ جتهاد؛ العصمة؛ محمد رسول الله صل الله عليه وسلم؛ البشر؛ القرأن و الحديث؛ AbstrakArtikel ini bertujuan untuk membedah konsep kemaksuman Nabi Muhammad sebagai manusia pada umumnya berdasarkan konteks penafsiran Al-Qur’an. Kajian ini fokus untuk menjawab pertanyaan permasalahan terkait, mengapa Nabi Muhammad dianggap maksum, padahal ia pernah melakukan kekeliruan dalam berijtihad?. Kajian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif berdasarkan paradigma teori kritis. Sedangkan teori analisis yang digunakan melalui tinjauan analisis gramatikal bahasa dan kontekstual historis. Hasil temuan menunjukkan bahwa, bila ditinjau berdasarkan konteks penggunaan term basyar di dalam Al-Qur’an terhadap posisi Nabi Muhammad sebagai manusia yang maksum, maka justru hal tersebut menunjukkan kualitas kemaksumannya secara totalitas, sebab term tersebut selalu melekat pada fungsinya sebagai penerima wahyu (yūhā), sehingga kekeliruannya senantiasa mendapatkan teguran dari Allah. Keistimewaan tersebutlah yang tidak dimiliki oleh manusia pada umumnya. Adapun implikasi dari kajian ini secara otomatis membantah argumen yang menyatakan bahwa kekeliruan ijtihad yang pernah dilakukan oleh Nabi Muhammad menunjukkan ketidak maksumannya sebagai manusia biasa. Kata Kunci: Ijtihad; Kemaksuman; Muhammad sebagai manusia;

Abstract

This study aims to uncover the polemic relationship between the Qur’an and the Hadith regarding the concept of as-sā‘ah (the end of life in the world). This phenomenon was investigated using a philosophical analysis-based qualitative research design. This study uses critical hermeneutic reading to textualize and historically contextualize the articulations of the as-sā‘ah in the al-Qur’an and Hadith. The findings suggest that the polemic was sparked by a disagreement between the al-Qur’an and Hadith narrations over the meaning of as-sā‘ah. The Qur’an only mentions it in the context of eschatology, whereas some Hadith narrations include descriptions of the end times or events that occur before the Day of Judgment (apocalyptic). The impact of meaning evolution is felt not only on a conceptual level but also on a practical level. Eschatology is limited to conveying spiritual morality messages, whereas apocalyptic is more commonly used for political propaganda that is prone to instilling violent ideas in religion. This finding has ramifications for the study of the Qur’an and Hadith, particularly in the area of examining the text and historical contexts to comprehend the relationship between the Qur’an and Hadith narrations.Keywords: As-Sā‘ah; Critical Hermeneutics; The Qur’an and Hadith.الملخصأهداف هذه الدراسة الكشف عن العلاقة بين نصوص القرآن والحديث في قضية ”الساعة“ التي تؤدّي إلى الجدل. تمت دراسة هذه القضية باستخدام المنهج النوعي بناء على التحليل الفلسفي. وهذا التحليل يبنى على التأويلية النقدية لكلمة ”الساعة“ الواردة في نصوص القرآن والحديث حرفيا وسياقيا تاريخيا. تشير نتائج هذه المقالة إلى أن الجدل في معاني "الساعة" يبدو بسبب اختلاف معانيها في القرآن والأحاديث النبوية. اقتصر القرآن على توضيح معاني ”الساعة“ في سياق الإيمان بالآخرة فحسب، بينما يوضح بعض روايات الحديث ”الساعة“ في سياق الرؤيا أو الحوادث التي جاءت قبل وقوع الساعة أيضا. إن تأثير التحول في المعانى لا يقف في الجانب المفاهيمي ، ولكن يؤثر أيضا في الجانب التطبيقي. مفهوم ”الساعة“ في القرآن لإيصال التعاليم في المجالات الأخلاقية والروحية، بينما يتم استخدام مفهوم ”الساعة“ في الأحاديث بشكل أكثر للدعاية في قضايا السياسية التي تميل إلى ظهور مفاهيم العنف في التدين. ونتيجة هذه الدراسة لها إسهام في تطور دراسة القرآن والحديث خاصة في معرفة جدلية البحث النصي والتاريخي بين نصوص القرآن ورواية الحديث.الكلمات الدلة: الساعة; التأويلية النقدية; القرآن والسنة.ABSTRAKStudi ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap relasional antara al-Qur’an dan Hadis terkait konsep akhir kehidupan di dunia (as-sā‘ah) yang tampaknya bersifat polemik. Fenomena tersebut diinvestigasi dengan menggunakan desain penelitian kualitatif berbasis analisis filosofis. Analisis ini menerapkan pembacaan hermeneutika kritis terhadap artikulasi as-sā‘ah yang terdapat dalam redaksi al-Qur’an dan Hadith, baik secara tekstual maupun kontekstual historis. Hasil temuan menunjukkan bahwa polemik tersebut diakibatkan karena terjadinya kesenjangan makna as-sā’ah antara redaksi al-Qur’an dan Hadis. Al-Qur’an hanya sebatas mengartikulasikannya dalam konteks eskatologi, sedangkan sebagian riwayat Hadis juga mencakup deskripsi akhir zaman atau peristiwa yang mendahului hari Kiamat (apokaliptik). Dampak dari evolusi makna tersebut tidak hanya terjadi pada aspek konseptual, tetapi juga pada aspek praksisnya. Eskatologi sebatas digunakan untuk menyampaikan pesan-pesan moralitas spiritual, sedangkan apokaliptik lebih dominan digunakan untuk propaganda politik yang rentan menimbulkan paham kekerasan dalam beragama. Temuan ini berimplikasi kepada pengembangan studi al-Qur’an dan Hadis, khususnya pada wilayah investigasi teks dan konteks historis dalam memahami relasional antara redaksi al-Qur’an dan riwayat Hadis.

Abstract

The vernacularization of the Qur'an has become an important study area for Indonesian scholars. However, translations or interpretations in the local languages of eastern Indonesia, especially South Sulawesi, have received limited attention. This research aims to fill this gap by examining the development of Qur'anic interpretation in the Bugis language in South Sulawesi. Employing a descriptive-analytic method and a social-historical approach, the study reveals that all authors of Bugis-language interpretations originate from the Madrasah Arabiyah Islamiyah (MAI), established by Anregurutta (AG) H. As'ad. As a result, these authors demonstrate comparable perspectives, styles, methods, and ideologies, distinguishing the vernacularization efforts in South Sulawesi from those in other parts of Indonesia. The research highlights the crucial role of the As'adiyah Islamic Boarding School in fostering the Bugis tafsir tradition in eastern Indonesia. Additionally, it finds that the motivations for translating or interpreting the Qur'an into Bugis encompass the goals of deepening comprehension of Islamic teachings within the indigenous community and preserving the Bugis language and culture within the context of Islamic discourse. Ultimately, the study illustrates the harmony between Islamic teachings and the socio-cultural context in Indonesia by examining the efforts to adapt Islamic practices to the local setting in Bugis Land

Abstract

This article examines the Pattula' Bala (PB) practice by the Bugis Muslim community in Indonesia, especially in Kendari City. PB is the practice of displaying the verses of the Qur’an, which its users in certain places install intending to prevent them from calamity. This article aims to reveal the genealogy of the PB tradition as part of the discursive Islamic tradition. This study uses a descriptive-analytic design from interview data, documentation, and literature exploration. The data were analyzed using the genealogical theory developed by Talal Asad and the exegetical reception approach developed by Ahmad Rafiq, especially in Qur’anic studies discourse. Research findings show that the Bugis Muslim community practices PB as a repellent to disasters and as a motivation to be more active in worship (tabarruk). Historically, information about similar practices is also found in Hadith and Faḍā’il ‘Amal literature. However, they have undergone a process of transmission and transformation from time to time until the entry of Islam into Sulawesi. This process cannot be separated from the role of religious figures who introduced Islam in Sulawesi through a Sufistic or mystic approach. Nevertheless, these findings still require philological studies, so the claims of this study are more convincing historically. The implication of this research is to synthesize the claim of “Islam as a discursive tradition,” which is claimed by Talal Asad. Keywords: Discursive Tradition, Pattula’ Bala’, the Muslim Bugis Community, Qur’anic Reception. Artikel ini mengkaji tentang praktik Pattula’ Bala (PB) oleh komunitas Muslim Bugis di Kota Kendari. PB merupakan praktik pajangan ayat-ayat Al-Qur’an yang dipasang oleh penggunanya di tempat-tempat tertentu dengan tujuan agar mereka terhindar dari musibah. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap genealogi tradisi PB sebagai bagian dari tradisi Islam yang bersifat diskursif. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain deskriptif analitik dari data wawancara, dokumentasi, dan eksplorasi literatur. Teknik wawancara dan dokumentasi digunakan untuk memeroleh data terkait bentuk praktik PB oleh komunitas Muslim Bugis. Data dianalisis menggunakan teori genealogi yang dikembangkan oleh Talal Asad yang dikombinasikan dengan pendekatan exegetical reception yang dikembangkan oleh Ahmad Rafiq, khususnya dalam wacana studi Al-Qur’an. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komunitas Muslim Bugis mempraktikkan PB tidak hanya Pattula’ Bala as a Discursive Tradition: The Reception of the Qur’an.... – Abdul Muiz Amir 2 sebagai penolak bencana, melainkan juga sebagai motivasi untuk lebih giat dalam beribadah (tabarruk). Secara historis, informasi tentang praktik yang serupa juga ditemukan dalam literatur Hadis dan Faḍā’il ‘Amal, meskipun telah mengalami proses transmisi dan transformasi dari masa ke masa hingga masuknya Islam di Sulawesi. Proses tersebut tidak terlepas dari peran tokoh agamawan yang memperkenalkan Islam di Sulawesi melalui pendekatan sufistik atau mistisisme. Meskipun demikian, temuan ini masih membutuhkan studi filologi, sehingga klaim penelitian ini lebih meyakinkan secara historis. Implikasi penelitian ini berperan sebagai sintesis terhadap klaim “Islam as a discursive tradition” oleh Talal Asad.

Abstract

Abstract Albeit research into religious moderation at Indonesian Islamic Higher Education (PTKIN) has been widely undertaken, little empirical research reports on tracing students’ final works as critical research to examine the alignment of PTKIN’s vision in support of government programs to build an inclusive and moderate discourse on religious understanding distribution. This study employs Tracing of Research Studies in three steps, taxonomy analysis, citation analysis, and statistical analysis of diversity. The analysis was conducted on Qur’an and Hadith theses and dissertations published by five institutions. The findings indicate that the religious moderation discourse established in PTKIN’s dissertation and thesis truly conveys the ambiguity of its concept. The ideas employed in the research obscured the government's concepts in establishing religious moderation in the Indonesian setting. This research proposes that mainstreaming religious moderation in PTKIN be implemented more thoroughly, particularly in compiling students’ final papers. Abstrak Meski telah banyak penelitian terkait moderasi beragama di Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Negeri (PTKIN), penelitian empiris yang menelusuri karya akhir mahasiswa masih terbatas, khususnya kajian kritis untuk mengeksplorasi keselarasan perwujudan visi dan misi PTKIN dalam mendukung program pemerintah untuk menciptakan paham keagamaan yang bersifat inklusif dan moderat. Penelitian ini menerapkan Tracing of Research Studies dengan tiga langkah analisis yaitu analisis taksonomi, analisis kutipan, dan analisis statistik keragaman. Analisis tersebut dilakukan terhadap tesis dan disertasi Al-Qur’an dan Hadis yang diterbitkan oleh 5 PTKIN. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa diskursus yang dikembangkan dalam tesis dan disertasi PTKIN justru mengesankan ambiguitas gagasan moderasi beragama. Gagasan yang digunakan dalam penelitian mengaburkan konsep yang telah dikonsep oleh pemerintah sebagai pedoman untuk mencapai moderasi beragama dalam konteks keIndonesiaan. Penelitian ini menyarankan agar strategi pengarusutamaan moderasi beragama di PTKIN dilakukan secara lebih komprehensif khususnya dalam produksi karya tulis akhir mahasiswa.

Abstract

The growing interest in Living Qur'an Studies (LQS) among scholars in Indonesia highlights its potential as a dynamic approach in Qur'anic studies. LQS emphasizes the interaction between Qur'anic teachings and lived experiences, integrating sociology, anthropology, philosophy, history, literature, and interpretation studies. Despite its promise, applying LQS consistently in academic research remains challenging. This study evaluates the quality and implementation of LQS in publications from Islamic Religious Higher Education Institutions (PTKIN) in the Sulawesi region. Through constructivist analysis, which explores how knowledge is actively shaped within academic discourse, this research assesses trends, methodologies, and challenges affecting the sustainability of LQS research. The findings highlight three key outcomes: (1) a growing trend of LQS adoption across four PTKIN institutions, (2) inconsistencies in methodological application, and (3) structural and conceptual challenges hindering the continuity of LQS. This study offers practical recommendations to improve the quality of LQS research, encouraging better methodological alignment and broader impact. By addressing these challenges, the research aims to advance LQS as a relevant field that bridges Qur'anic studies with contemporary societal contexts.
FROM FRAMING TO FLAMING IN THE CROSS-THEOLOGICAL DEBATE: HOW ARE CHRISTIAN PRINCE’S COMMENTARIES REPRESENTED THE QUR’AN ON YOUTUBE? Amir, Abdul Muiz; Wahidah, Fatira; Zakir, Muhammad; Ainurrofiq, Faiq

Abstract

Christian Prince’s (CP) presence on YouTube opened a new chapter in Christian opposition actors who act as cross-theological debaters between Muslims and Christians who, for the previous two decades, were only dominated by Muslims. Through the narratives on YouTube, this Christian apologist tries to convince the public that the Qur’an contains contradictory statements as the holy book for Muslims. In response to such an issue, this research aims to investigate the construction of CP’s interpretation, which highlights the authenticity of the Qur’an. Qualitative content and thematic analyses and the framing approach developed by William A. Gamson were employed. Findings suggest that the representation of CP’s understanding of the Qur’an verses uses a decontextualization approach. Also, the vast knowledge of the Arabic language and literary translations further strengthen the narratives to convince the public of the allegations. However, instead of considering the historical context in understanding the scientific meaning of the Qur’an, this Christian apologist uses literal meaning as a framing device. This phenomenon has shown that cross-theological debates only provoke persistent inter-religious hatred and resentment. Therefore, such debates are inclined to trigger the propaganda of religious extremists.

Abstract

This research aims to determine whether or not revivalism ideology exists among academics in Islamic higher education institutes in the province of Southeast Sulawesi. It is accomplished through the use of an exegetical reception approach of their understanding of the Āyāt at-Taḥkīm (Quran chapter al-Midah [5]:44-47). Data was gathered by combining survey technique development with in-depth interviews. The collected data was analyzed using a philosophical and phenomenological hermeneutic approach to assess the academic communitys understanding of Āyāt at-Taḥkīm. According to the survey results, Āyāt at-Taḥkīm is very popular among academics higher education institutes in Southeast Sulawesi. Most of the academic community’s information comes from religious studies on social media. They acknowledge and accept these verses as the foundation for the legitimacy of kaffah enforcement of Islamic law as the foundation for Indonesia’s political system. Meanwhile, the interviews show that most informants label those who disagree with the discourse with theological labels (kāfir and thāgūt). As a result, even though these characteristics have not reached an extreme level, their comprehension is included in the revivalism ideologys characteristics. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menakar eksistensi karakteristik ideologi revivalisme di kalangan sivitas akademika, khususnya di perguruan tinggi yang berada di wilayah provinsi Sulawesi Tenggara, Indonesia. Ini dilakukan dengan menerapkan pendekatan resepsi eksegesis atas pemahaman mereka terhadap Āyāt at-Taḥkīm (Q. al-Midah [5]:44-47). Data penelitian ini dikumpulkan melalui elaborasi antara teknik survey dan wawancara mendalam secara bersamaan. Data yang diperoleh kemudian dianalisis mengggunakan pendekatan hermeneutika filosofis dan fenomenologis guna menakar pemahaman sivitas akademika terhadap Āyāt at-Taḥkīm. Hasil survey membuktikan bahwa Āyāt at-Taḥkīm cukup populer bagi kalangan sivitas akademika di Sulawesi Tenggara. Informasi tentangnya mayoritas diakses oleh sivitas akademika dari kajian-kajian keagamaan di media sosial. Mereka mengenal dan memahami ayat-ayat itu sebagai basis legitimasi wajibnya penegakan syariat Islam secara kaffah sebagai basis sistem politik pemerintahan di Indonesia. Sedangkan hasil wawancara membuktikan bahwa mayoritas informan menggunakan label-label teologis (kafir dan thagt) terhadap orang-orang yang menolak wacana tersebut. Meskipun pemahaman mereka dapat dikategorikan mengandung karakteristik ideologi revivalisme, tetapi belum termasuk level yang ekstrem, sehingga masih berpeluang bagi mereka untuk mendapatkan pembinaan.

Abstract

 This paper aims to explore critically the interpretation result of QS. Al-Taubah/9:71 in Tafsir Qur‟anTematik by the Ministry of Religion Affairs Republic of Indonesia. This is conducted because it issuspected that it contains a gender bias interpretation. This research used a critical qualitative-interpretativedesign by investigating the interpretation of QS. al-Taubah / 9: 71 using a contextualizationinterpretation. The findings reveal that the Thematic Interpretation of Al-Quran by the Ministry ofReligion affairs published for the first time in 2009 represents the interpretation of the QS. al-Taubah/9:71 as legitimacy of limiting the area of political leadership for women. Therefore, the product of suchinterpretations tends to be biased because it limits the area of state leadership based on a particular gender.This interpretation seems to contrast with the meaning of the verse that is found through the exploration oftextual, contextual-historical, and dynamic contextual approaches. The meaning obtained from this versediscusses about the socio-spiritual relationship in the internal Muslim community only, rather than thepolitical context. The same results can also be seen in Tafsir al-Wajiz, in which the work is also theinterpretation of the Ministry of Religion published in 2016, as well as the interpretation of scholars invarious classical commentaries. The implication of the results of the interpretation of gender bias in TafsirQur‟an Tematik can have an impact on government policies in positioning the women in the society,especially in the area of structural leadership of country. This research contributes to the study of Qur’anicexegesis and gender discourse in Islam by offering a critical framework for evaluating genderedinterpretations of religious texts. Additionally, it demonstrates the importance of contextual hermeneutics inaddressing structural biases in Islamic exegesis and proposes a more inclusive approach to Qur’anicinterpretation.
