Abstract

Data from the Indonesian National Police (Polri) indicate that suicide ranks fourth among cases classified as public order disturbances in the country, with economic hardship cited as one of the primary causes. This phenomenon underscores the idea that worldly struggles can lead individuals to neglect the eternal nature of the afterlife. A particularly compelling issue arises from the fact that the majority of Indonesia’s population is Muslim; as such, the Qur’an should serve as a guide for life. The Qur’an strongly discourages despair, highlighting the vastness of God’s mercy, as emphasized in Surah Al-A’raf (7:56). This study focuses on two key questions: How does the Qur’an describe verses related to suicide (ayat al-intihar), and how can a causal analysis be derived from those verses? The objective is to identify Qur’anic verses with themes related to suicide and then conduct a causality-based analysis to understand the underlying causes and propose solutions. The research uses a qualitative approach through a library study, employing the thematic interpretation (tafsir maudh?‘?) method for verse collection and applying causality theory for analysis. The findings reveal that the Qur’anic foundation for the prohibition of suicide is primarily found in Surah An-Nisa’ (4:29) and Surah Al-Isra’ (17:33). The various factors that lead to suicide ultimately stem from a sense of despair caused by weakened faith in Allah, the Supreme Owner of life. Therefore, the most appropriate solution for individuals facing hardship is to remain patient and place their trust in Allah, as no problem exists in this world without a corresponding solution.

Abstract

Poverty has been a persistent problem since ancient times. In Indonesia, poverty rates continue to fluctuate. According to the Central Bureau of Statistics, the number of impoverished individuals as of March 2023 was 25.90 million out of a total population of 278.8 million. It is essential to continue examining why poverty persists globally today, especially since Islam has provided extensive guidance on this issue within the Qur’an. Motivated by these facts, the author has explored poverty from the Qur’anic perspective using Abd al Hayy al Farmawi's thematic interpretation method, analyzed with sociology through cultural and structural approaches. Culturally, several causes of poverty have been identified: first, laziness and lack of perseverance; second, consumptive, inefficient, and stingy behaviors; third, individual destruction; and fourth, a lack of knowledge and education. Structurally, the causes include neoliberalism, capitalism, monopolies, social discrimination, and the arrogance of power. Qur’anically prescribed countermeasures culturally include genuine endeavor, a lifestyle of frugality, efficiency, wisdom, individual reconstruction, and education. Structurally, government intervention is required. The proposed solutions include the prohibition of monopolies, the establishment of justice, and pro-poor policies.
