Abstract

The debate on the leadership roles of men and women (qiwāmah) in Islam is often associated with different interpretations of religious texts. This article aims to uncover and compare the concept of "qiwāmah" through the interpretation of Surah al-Nisa': 34 from the perspective of two female feminist figures, Amina Wadud and Zainab al-Ghazalī, who have different backgrounds. The qualitative comparative method is used in this research, using library research techniques for data collection. This study analyzes data related to their interpretations and views of the Quranic text through their various works, identifying similarities and differences in the interpretation of the Quran. The findings of this study show that there are different interpretations of the meaning of "qiwāmah". Wadud argues that "qiwāmah" signifies relative leadership based on "capability", where anyone capable, regardless of gender, is entitled to lead others. In contrast, Zainab views leadership based on "responsibility", where men are providers for women, reflecting an equal role between the two. In conclusion, both scholars support gender justice and equality, rejecting the notion that the concept of leadership in the Quran is reserved for men due to physical or rational creation factors, and thus opposing domination where the strong can oppress the weak.

Abstract

Advances in reproductive technology have generated new questions regarding maternal status in the practice of surrogate motherhood, particularly concerning the distinction between genetic and gestational mothers. This study aims to reconstruct the concept of motherhood in the Qur’an and examine its implications for such practices. The research is qualitative and library-based, employing the thematic exegesis (tafsîr mawdhûʿî) method of al-Farmawi through the collection and analysis of key Qur’anic verses. The findings indicate that the Qur’an conceptualizes motherhood as a multilayered relational structure: birth as the ontological foundation, gestation as the ethical foundation, breastfeeding as a juridical extension, and lineage (nasab) as its genealogical consequence. Within this framework, traditional surrogacy is considered incompatible with Islamic kinship principles due to the occurrence of ikhtilâth al-nasab (lineage mixing), while gestational surrogacy still raises questions regarding the determination of maternal status. The interpretation of QS. al-Mujâdilah [58]:2 associates motherhood with the woman who gives birth, and the notion of the womb as qarârin makîn affirms pregnancy as a maternal relation that cannot be contractually transferred. Accordingly, the Qur’anic construction of motherhood transcends a purely genetic approach and provides a conceptual basis for addressing modern reproductive bioethics in Islam.
