Abstract

This study examines emerging trends in digital Qur’anic interpret-tation by analyzing how Nadirsyah Hosen employs narrative hermeneutics on his Instagram account @nadirsyahhosen_official. Existing research on digital tafsīr has largely focused on thematic content, presentation style, or audience interaction, yet little attention has been given to the use of storytelling as an interpretive method. This study fills that gap by investi¬gating how narrative structures function as hermeneutic tools in interpret¬ting Sūrah al-Falaq and al-Nās. The research employed a qualitative design that integrates two forms of data: Instagram posts containing Hosen’s story-based interpretations and user comments responding to these posts. Narrative analysis based on Labov and Waletzky’s framework is applied to identify the structural components of the stories, while netnographic analysis is used to examine audience reception patterns. The findings show that Hosen’s interpretations consistently incorporate key narrative elements such as orientation, complication, evaluation, resolution, and coda, which enhance communicative clarity and contextual relevance. Audience res¬pon¬ses cluster into four dimensions: emotional spiritual engagement, epis¬te¬mic trust in religious authority, social communitarian bonding, and educational pragmatic learning. These results demonstrate that narrative hermeneutics strengthens interpretive authority and fosters participatory religious discourse in digital environments. The study concludes that storytelling functions not only as a rhetorical device but also as an epistemic strategy that reshapes Qur’anic interpretation in the digital age. It recommends further exploration of narrative based tafsīr across diverse platforms and audiences.

Abstract

Abstract: This paper highlights the ideas on the meaning of religion within Quran: A Reformist Translation, a contemporary work that promotes a reformist paradigm of Quranic interpretation. On the methodological framework, their exegesis lies on the Qur’an alone, which means to let the Qur’anexplainstheir self within their logic and linguistic features. They refuse the hierarchical and epistemic authority of the clergy in interpreting the Qur’an. Further, they have also rejected the authority of hadis. With this theoretical framework, they do not interpret al-dînas religion, but as a system. They also do not interpret Islam as a proper name related to the religion of Muhammad, but as a mindset and action which lies on the system of peacemaking and peaceful surrendering. This kind of interpretation theoretically makes a shifting orientation of the verse which generally tends to theology, dogmatic, and exclusive become humanist, dialogue and inclusive. Keywords: Qur’anic translation; reformist, al-dîn; al-islâm. Abstrak: artikel inimembahas tentang gagasan makna agama dalam Quran: A Reformist Translation, sebuah karya terjemah Alquran kontemporeryang menawarkan pandangan baru dalam melihat teks dengan semangat reformis. Kerangka metodologis penafsiran mereka adalah al-Qur’an alone, yaitu membiarkan Alquran menjelaskan dirinya sendiri dengan logika kebahasaannya. Mereka menolak otoritas ulama sebagai epistemologi tafsirnya, termasuk dalam hal ini hadis. Dengan kerangka ini, mereka memaknai al-dîntidak sebagai agama, melainkan sebagai sistem. Demikian juga dengan al-islâm, mereka tidak menafsirkan kata tersebut sebagai nama agama tertentu, melainkan sebuah mindsetdan aksi yang berpijak pada sistem kepasrahan dan kedamaian. Penafsiran inisecara teoritismerubah orientasi ayat yang semula bersifat teologis, dogmatis dan eksklusif menjadi humanis, dialogis dan inklusif.

Abstract

The existence of al-Ijmā‘ fī al-Tafsīr  as a new discourse which officially incorporates to the study of Uṣūl al-Tafsīr has evoked various questions. The problem seems to lie within the episteme of the discourse which eventually conflicted to the reform spirit of modern Qur’anic exegetes. This study aims at trailing a constituted concept of al-Ijmā‘ fī al-Tafsīr through the eyes of six modern Qur’anic exegeses written by Bint al-Shāṭi’, Sayyid Quṭb, Abū Zahrah, Muḥammad al-Ghazālī, ‘Ābid al-Jābirī and ‘Izzat Darwazah. It begins with analyzing the Qs. al-Kahf [18]: 60 and Qs. al-Layl [92]: 92, as the interpretation of these two verses is stated as a definitive interpretation, which is agreed upon by some commentators (mujma‘ ‘alayh). This paper proves that the discourse of al-Ijmā‘ fī al-Tafsīr has not received enough acceptance or serious attention by most modern commentators. The six modern exegetes also stand on different outlook for the consensus of Qur’anic interpretation: some exegetes quote and admit it; some of them do not cite for certain reasons; and one of them rejects and doubts it.

Abstract

Recent Indonesian horror movies have shown a tendency to feature Islamic elements, ranging from Islamic-themed diction in titles to the appearance of Qur’anic verses in their narratives, which serve as both a representation and a reception of the sacred text. This study aims to analyze how Qur’anic verses can be functionally received and how they represent certain concepts through Roland Barthes’ semiotic reading, Stuart Hall’s Representation, and Ahmad Rafiq’s Reception frameworks. The results of the study show that, first, the representation of people who seek protection from God in Surah Al-Nās is depicted as always receiving His help when facing Satan’s disturbance. Second, the representation of moral opposition between two characters refers to the concepts of al-fujjār and al-abrār in surah Al-Mut}affifīn. Third, the functional reception of the verses of the Qur’an in the form of performative practices through the ritual of ruqyah, namely Surah Āli ‘Imrān verses 26-27, Al-Naml verse 30, Al-Jinn verses 1-6, Al-Ikhlās} verses 1-4, Al-Falaq verses 1-5, and Al-Nās verses 1-6. These findings indicate that films can be a popular medium that enlivens and constructs religious moral messages based on verses from the Qur’an through cinematic narratives, thus opening up further research on the interaction between sacred texts, media, and religious practices in society.

Abstract

Purpose - Contemporary discussions of well-being are frequently dominated by material and psychological perspectives, whereas the Qur'an presents a more holistic conception integrating spiritual, ethical, and social dimensions. This study examines the compatibility between Martin Seligman's PERMA model of psychological well-being and the Qur'anic narrative of Prophet Solomon (Sulaymān), with the aim of developing a Qur'an-based understanding of human flourishing.Design/methodology/approach - This study employs a qualitative library-based research design using thematic Qur'anic exegesis (tafsīr mawḍū'ī) and narrative analysis. Primary data consist of Qur'anic verses concerning Prophet Solomon, supported by classical and contemporary Qur'anic commentaries and relevant literature on positive psychology. The PERMA framework-Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishment-serves as the analytical lens for interpreting the Qur'anic narrative.Findings - The findings demonstrate that all five PERMA dimensions are consistently reflected in the life of Prophet Solomon. Gratitude represents positive emotion; wisdom and just decision-making embody engagement; persuasive and compassionate interaction with Queen Bilqis illustrates positive relationships; devotion to Allah and commitment to public welfare constitute meaning; while the responsible use of power, wealth, and divine blessings reflects accomplishment. Collectively, these dimensions indicate that Qur'anic well-being extends beyond psychological flourishing to encompass spiritual consciousness and God-centered ethical responsibility.Research implications/limitations - This study is limited to the Qur'anic narrative of Prophet Solomon and a conceptual comparison with the PERMA model. Future research should examine other Qur'anic figures and empirically investigate the applicability of the proposed framework within Islamic psychology and well-being studies.Originality/value - This study contributes to Qur'anic studies and Islamic psychology by integrating a contemporary positive psychology framework with thematic Qur'anic exegesis. It proposes a holistic model of psychological well-being in which gratitude, divine orientation, ethical leadership, and social responsibility function as interconnected dimensions of human flourishing, thereby extending PERMA through a transcendental and theocentric perspective rooted in the Qur'an.

Abstract

The Qur'an is a holy book that contains many valuable lessons, requiring interpretation (tafsir) to understand its contents in depth. Ahmad Mustafa al-Maraghi, through his work Tafsir al-Mara>ghi>, presents one of the most remarkable interpretations with a social approach that is relevant to the needs of modern society. Meanwhile, Said Nursi, a contemporary scholar, offers a unique paradigm of scientific interpretation (tafsir 'ilmi) that emphasizes the essence of faith and monotheism, oriented toward the ultimate purpose of the hereafter. This study employs a library research method to explore and identify the novelty of scientific interpretation in the work Kulliyya>t Rasa>il al-Nu>r. The approach used in this research is tafsir s'ilmi. The findings reveal two main conclusions. First, Said Nursi's scientific interpretation emphasizes the essence of faith and monotheism with an eschatological orientation, differing from other scientific interpreters. Second, the novelty of tafsir 'ilmi proposed by Said Nursi is divided into three aspects: (1) in terms of its characteristics, it adopts a scientific-cum-sufistic style; (2) in its perspective and interpretation of nature, it applies two meanings, namely harfi and ismi; and (3) in terms of its impact and the interrelation between science and the Asma’ al-Husna, it fosters the integration of general sciences (science) and religious knowledge.
