Abstract

Global civilizational discourse remains entangled in epistemological asymmetries, wherein Western imperialism is exalted as a vehicle of progress while the Caliphate is vilified as a relic of despotism. This study interrogates such distortions, arguing that the Caliphate paradigm rooted in the Qur’anic principle of tawḥīd constitutes a theological and geopolitical antithesis to imperialism’s anthropocentric domination. Employing qualitative library research, this paper integrates critical discourse analysis, thematic Qur’anic exegesis (tafsīr maudūʿī), and comparative geopolitical insights through a decolonial epistemological lens (Santos). The findings reveal that the Caliphate positions sovereignty as a divine amānah, operationalized through maqāṣid al-sharīʿah, in stark contrast to the exploitative structures of imperialism evidenced by historical wealth extractions from colonized territories. Geopolitically, the Qur’anic ideal of ummah waḥidah (Q. 21:92) challenges colonial legacies of fragmentation, such as the Sykes-Picot Agreement, which has left 78% of Muslim-majority nations geopolitically vulnerable (FSI, 2023). Epistemologically, the paper advocates for an autonomous Islamic political framework by decentering Eurocentric constructs like the nation-state and rearticulating khilāfah beyond Orientalist tropes of tyranny (Said). In conclusion, the Caliphate is not a romanticized anachronism but a viable, justice-oriented paradigm—ontologically rooted in tawḥīd, geopolitically structured around unity, and epistemologically enabled through decolonized knowledge ecologies. It demands a reimagining of political theology that transcends imperial residues and asserts an authentically Islamic civilizational vision.

Abstract

This study aims to reconstruct the conceptualization of reading in the Qur’an, which is often reduced to mere technical literacy, while the sacred text offers a holistic-integrative paradigm. Departing from the problem of fragmentation in previous studies that are partial and have not touched the semantic integrity of key lexical networks (qara’a, tala, darasa, etc.), this research addresses the urgency of theoretical-practical needs to formulate a coherent Qur’anic epistemology of reading as a foundation for Islamic philosophy of science and education. Using a rigorous thematic ( maudhu’i ) tafsir method, an exhaustive thematic exploration of all related verses, semantic-contextual analysis, and synthesis of a conceptual model were conducted. The novelty of the research lies in three aspects: the application of rigorous maudhu’i procedures for complex themes, comparative-interconnective semantic analysis between lexicons, and the construction of a theory in the form of a Multilayered Epistemology of Qur’anic Reading Model (Technical-Procedural, Performative-Reflective, and Contemplative-Constructive Layers). The results indicate that reading in the Qur’an is an active, hierarchical epistemology with dual objects ( qauliyah and kauniyah verses), an ideal subject ( ulul albab ), and an integrative-dialogical methodology, aiming to produce beneficial knowledge ( ‘ilm nāfi’ ) and universal benefit ( rahmatan lil ‘ālamīn ). This model serves as an operational framework for revitalizing an integrated Islamic knowledge paradigm.
