Abstract

Gender discrimination in contemporary Muslim societies is often rooted in literal interpretations of certain Qur’anic verses perceived as gender-biased, particularly those related to polygamy and inheritance. This study aims to analyze and evaluate Nasr Hamid Abu Zaid’s hermeneutical approach in addressing gender issues within Qur’anic interpretation. Employing a qualitative method, the research utilizes a critical-comparative hermeneutic textual analysis by examining Abu Zaid’s major works alongside selected classical and modern exegeses. The findings indicate that Abu Zaid’s hermeneutics successfully trace the historical and cultural roots of gender bias in traditional interpretations. His approach provides an alternative framework for reinterpretation that considers socio-historical contexts, allowing for a more equitable and dynamic understanding of Qur’anic messages. Abu Zaid differentiates between the divine text and its historically constructed interpretations, advocating for a reinterpretation that aligns with evolving social realities and the principles of justice and equality. This study affirms that religious texts are inherently dynamic and open to reinterpretation, especially when read through a contextual and gender-conscious lens. Abu Zaid’s hermeneutics contribute significantly to the development of a progressive methodology in Qur’anic exegesis, offering critical insights for addressing gender justice in modern Muslim contexts. Consequently, this research introduces a renewed perspective in the discourse of gender and Islamic hermeneutics that is both theologically grounded and socially responsive

Abstract

Pre-Islamic Arab society is a social group that inhabited the Arab region before the advent of Islam. Their rich culture, social structures, and belief systems have contributed significantly to the Middle East's historical advancement and civilization. This article seeks to provide a fuller understanding of pre-Islamic Arab society by emphasizing some aspects of the predominant cultural, social, and religious systems at the time. This study uses literary analysis to consult historical sources like ancient writings, trip diaries, and archaeological artefacts. A historical study has also been done to compile precise and comprehensive data. The research findings show pre-Islamic Arab society had a diverse and rich culture. They developed the highly respected Arabic language, poetry, and literary traditions. Their social structure comprises tribes, and each tribe has its strict hierarchy and moral laws. However, the variety of their religious traditions includes monotheistic, animism, polytheism, and paganism. This article argues that pre-Islamic Arab societies had a complex and rich cultural heritage. Their belief system incorporates numerous forms of mysticism, and their social order is founded on a solid tribal structure. Grasp pre-Islamic Arab society in depth can help one understand the Middle East region's history and culture.

Abstract

Certain prophetic traditions (Hadīth) are still read through a textual-absolutist lens that treats situational speech as timeless law, often generating interpretations that feel ethically troubling or socially unworkable today. This article proposes event contextualization as a practical framework for reinterpreting “problematic” Hadīth by reconstructing the triggering event and its immediate social setting (asbāb al-wurūd), mapping variant transmissions, and then reassessing the report’s normative force in light of Qur’anic moral horizons and maqāṣid al-sharīʿah. Using qualitative textual analysis and contextual hermeneutics—supported by matn and sanad checks—the study examines recurring clusters of narrations frequently invoked in contemporary debates, especially on gender, minority relations, apostasy, and political obedience. The analysis suggests that many interpretive dead-ends arise when context-bound directives are universalized without attending to the occasion, audience, and intent of the Prophet’s instruction. By operationalizing event reconstruction alongside purposive ethical reasoning, the article offers a replicable way to distinguish time-sensitive instructions from transferable moral principles. It argues that this approach strengthens contemporary fiqh al-ḥadīth by reducing interpretive overreach while preserving the Prophetic moral aim.
