Abstract

This research examines the meaning of Istighfar in the Qur'an, which has been understood as a form of asking for forgiveness, both in the form of actions and words Astagfirullah al-Adzim. However, in the Qur'an Istighfar can be interpreted broadly. The purpose of this study is to look at the signs of the word Istighfar in the Qur'an using a semiotic approach. In this case, the author uses Charles Sanders Pierce's semiotic theory, namely the trichotomy or triadic (Representamen, Object and Interpretant) to reveal the meaning of Istighfar as a sign. This research uses a qualitative approach with a library research method. The results showed that Istighfar is not only interpreted as a form of asking for forgiveness, either in the form of actions or words such as Astaghfirullah al-Adzim, but also means Fath al-Rizq (opening the door to sustenance), al-Ijabah (answered prayer), and Takziyat al-Qalb (cleansing the heart). This research contributes to the meaning of Istighfar and can provide insight for semiotic research.

Abstract

The application of biblical references in the field of interpretation is not a new phenomenon, but it does not make it a common practice. This study examines Seyyed Hossein Nasr's construct of thought in The Study Quran (TSQ) in the application of the Bible as a reference for interpretation. This application did not arise from a vacuum, but was followed by certain constructive factors that led to the application of biblical references in the framework of The Study Quran. This study uses a qualitative-philosophical method by utilizing John Hick's Religious Inclusivism-Religious approach from John Hick (ultimate reality, inclusivism paradigm, and theocentric model) to highlight the theological dimension, as well as the Philosophical Hermeneutics from Hans-George Gadamer (historical influence, pre-understanding, and assimilation of horizons) in revealing the socio-historical dimension of Seyyed Hossein Nasr. The results of the study show that Seyyed Hossein Nasr assesses the Bible as a text with complex historical value, and that the involvement of the Bible in the realm of interpretation has the purpose of expanding the meaning of the verses of the Qur'an. Given the issue of distortion, this work emphasizes the aspect of distortion of meaning and interpretation rather than distortion of the text. The view of distortion indirectly imposes limitations by placing the Bible as a historical text limited to the functions of historical contextualization and intertextual analysis. In the theological dimension, Seyyed Hossein Nasr's position is inclusive, while in the hermeneutical-philosophical perspective, it shows a hermeneutic situation with intellectual traces and contemporary dynamics, including the 9/11 phenomenon that gave rise to Islamophobia in New York. Given the limitations of the Eastern school in assessing the application of the Bible as presented and the dynamics of the Western school, which is open to cross-traditional references, supported by the 9/11 phenomenon, this shows an effort to bridge two different traditions in the realm of interpretation. Contribution: This study theoretically contributes by integrating John Hick’s religious inclusivism and Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics to construct an interreligious interpretive framework that explains Seyyed Hossein Nasr’s inclusive use of biblical references in The Study Quran.

Abstract

Cross-scriptural exegesis, a classical yet not fully normalized practice, has become central to contemporary Qur’anic studies. Seyyed Hossein Nasr et al.’s The Study Quran: A New Translation and Commentary exemplifies this shift by creating intertextual dialogue across scriptures to emphasize narrative and theological continuity. This study examines how the Bible in The Study Quran especially regarding Qur’an 12:23–42, which covers feminine temptation and the prisoners’ dreams is presented not just narratively but through a systematic, scholarly approach. The researcher applies Julia Kristeva’s theory of intertextuality and Mikhail Bakhtin’s dialogic theory (heteroglossia and carnivalesque), using a qualitative-textual method based on library sources. The findings reveal that intertextuality in the verses encompasses narrative (Q. 12:23–35, 36–42), legal (Q. 12:25, 36), and semiotic (Q. 12:36, 41) dimensions. The intertextual models include references (Q. 12:36), explanations (Q. 12:23), comparisons (Q. 12:23, 25, 35–38, 41, 42), and critiques (Q. 12:37–40). These forms create an analytical-comparative work aligned with its dialogical purpose, while upholding the Qur’an’s hierarchical authority over the Bible within a theological framework. From a dialogic view, the multiple voices the Qur’an (proton), the exegete (neutron), and the Bible (electron) reflect a carnivalesque dynamic. Abstrak: Fenomena tafsir lintas kitab merupakan praktik klasik yang belum sepenuhnya dinormalisasikan, tetapi kini menjadi jantung diskursus studi al-Qur’an kontemporer. Karya Seyyed Hossein Nasr dkk., The Study Quran: A New Translation and Commentary, merefleksikan pergeseran ini dengan membangun dialog intertekstual lintas kitab guna menyoroti kesinambungan naratif dan teologis. Penelitian ini bertujuan menelaah bagaimana Bibel dalam The Study Quran, khususnya pada QS. Yūsuf: 23–42 yang berkaitan dengan kisah godaan perempuan dan tafsir mimpi narapidana tidak sekadar dikutip secara naratif, tetapi dihadirkan melalui strategi ilmiah yang sistematis. Dalam konteks ini, peneliti menggunakan teori intertekstualitas Julia Kristeva (intrinsik) dan teori dialogis Mikhail Bakhtin (heteroglossia dan carnivalesque). Adapun metode yang digunakan ialah kualitatif-tekstual dengan memanfaatkan sumber-sumber kepustakaan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ragam bentuk interteks terkait tema ayat memuat kisah (QS. Yūsuf: 23-35 dan 36-42), hukum (QS. Yūsuf: 25 dan 36), dan semiotik (QS. Yūsuf: 36 dan 41). Terkait model intertekstual memuat rujukan (QS. Yūsuf: 36), penjelasan (QS. Yūsuf: 23), perbandingan (QS. Yūsuf: 23, 25, 35, 36, 37, 38, 41, dan 42), dan kritik (QS. Yūsuf: 37-40). Ragam bentuk interteks tersebut menjadikannya sebagai bentuk yang bersifat analitis-komparatif, hal ini senada dengan tujuan pengaplikasian dalam rangka membangun dialog, walau dalam konsep teologi tetap memuat hirarki otentisitas al-Qur’ān dibanding Bibel. Jika dilihat dalam kacamata dialogis menunjukkan keberagaman bentuk suara proton (al-Qur’ān), suara neutron (mufasir), dan suara elektron (Bibel) dapat menggambarkan karnivalistik.
