Abstract

The growing demand for the printed copy of the Quran, addressed by publishers through various innovations such as the introduction of new pause marks, reflects a shift from use value to commercial value. This study aims to demonstrate this shift by examining how new pause marks are determined. Employing a qualitative method, the research utilizes the qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) model for data analysis. The study reveals differences in the purpose behind implementing new pause marks in waqf-ibtidā’, primarily due to deviations from the syntactical relationships upheld in standard waqf-ibtidā’ rules. A consistent pattern of separation between elements such as fi’il and fā’il, mubtadā’ and khabr, and al-ḥāl and ṣāḥib al-ḥāl is observed. This separation caters to aesthetic considerations, purportedly to accommodate new Qur'an readers who might have shortness of breath. Such a purpose points to the marketing-oriented image-building of waqf-ibtidā’, aiming to facilitate ease in finding stopping points. However, this emphasis on convenience often leads to the distortion of meaning, as it interrupts the linguistic coherence, making the text harder to understand. The focus on innovations that enhance marketability highlights a form of commodification that overlooks the traditional use value of the Qur'an. This shift from use value to commercial value underscores a trend among producers of the printed copy of Quran of waqf-ibtidā’ to place the Quran within an industrial context that promotes religion’s presence in the public sphere.

Abstract

The orientalists are sceptical about the originality of the Qur’an. Still, it turns out that Issa Joseph Boullata has another view by proposing the i’jāz (inimitability) as an indicator of the originality of the Qur’an. This study is important considering that the discourse of i’jāz Al-Qur’an has been studied theologically, which has made it more engaged by insiders. The purpose of this article is to explain how Boullata, as an outsider, also built his system in the i’jāz study. This research employs the library research method to gather data, which is then described and analysed using epistemological theory to provide an overview and focus for the research. Boullata formulated the idea of rhetorical arrangement (balāgy) in the Qur’an, which shows a very high literary taste. To find the rhetorical and aesthetic side of literature in the Qur’an, Boullata began i’jāz’s study by considering the Qur’an as a literary text, so that it would be separated from the theological realm. So, with this, Boullata confirmed the authenticity of the Qur’an based on the equality of the literature contained in it and made i’jāz an indicator of the originality of the Qur’an. This article focuses on the i’jāz aspect of the Qur’an from Boullata’s perspective. Further investigation regarding the impact of i’jāz on the originality of the Qur’an, according to Boullata, can be carried out to enrich the discourse on the study of the Qur’an and Orientalism.
