Abstract

Textual readings of the Qur’anic story of Prophet Lot, particularly QS. Hud (11): 78-79, have often concentrated on sexual deviance and divine punishment while leaving insufficient attention to how female figures are represented. This interpretive tendency creates an academic and ethical problem: the phrase “these are my daughters” is frequently read without adequate linguistic, historical, and socio-moral contextualization, allowing women to appear as objects of negotiation rather than as moral subjects. Previous studies on the Lot narrative have largely examined disaster, punishment, and moral deviation, whereas the gendered implications of androcentric exegesis remain underexplored. This study therefore aims to deconstruct the marginalization of women in the story of Prophet Lot and to recover the Qur’an’s ethical message through the Ma’na cum Maghza approach. This research employs a qualitative library-based method by analyzing Qur’anic verses, classical tafsir works, and contemporary gender-hermeneutical literature. The analysis proceeds through three stages: ma’na tarikhi, the reconstruction of the verse’s historical-linguistic meaning; maghza tarikhi, the identification of the Qur’an’s original moral significance in its historical context; and maghza mutaharrik, the contextual development of that significance for contemporary gender justice. The findings show that women’s marginalization does not originate from the Qur’anic text itself but from patriarchal interpretive frames that neglect context and ethical purpose. The Lot narrative primarily criticizes violence, coercion, bodily exploitation, and unjust social relations; consequently, it supports a more humane and gender-equitable Qur’anic interpretation.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to reconstruct the Qur’anic ethics of consumption in QS. Al-Isra’ (17): 26-27 and examine its relevance to contemporary consumerism and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Theoretical framework: The research is grounded in the theoretical framework of Islamic moral economy and ethical sustainability, using the hermeneutical approach of Ma’na cum Maghza to connect the textual meaning of the Qur’an with its contemporary social significance. Literature review: Previous studies have examined the concept of tabdhir (wastefulness) in Qur’anic interpretation and Islamic economic ethics; however, most remain normative and rarely integrate Qur’anic ethical principles with modern consumer culture or the global sustainability discourse. Methods: This study employs qualitative library research with textual and contextual analysis of QS. Al-Isra’ (17): 26-27 based on classical and contemporary Qur’anic exegesis and interdisciplinary literature. The analysis follows three stages: historical meaning, universal significance, and contextual reinterpretation. Results: The findings reveal that Qur’anic consumption ethics are built upon three core principles: wealth as a social trust, moderation in consumption, and the prohibition of wastefulness (tabdhir). These principles function as a moral framework that critiques modern consumerism while simultaneously supporting responsible consumption and equitable resource distribution. Furthermore, the study demonstrates that these ethical principles align with several SDGs, particularly SDG 12, SDG 1, SDG 10, and SDG 16, by promoting sustainable consumption, social justice, and economic balance. Implications: This study contributes theoretically by integrating contextual Qur’anic interpretation with sustainability discourse, offering a value-based framework for sustainable development grounded in Islamic ethical principles. Novelty: This study integrates the Ma'na cum Maghza approach with sustainability discourse by reconstructing Qur'an 17:26–27, offering a Qur'anic ethical framework for critiquing modern consumerism and promoting responsible consumption aligned with the SDGs.
