Abstract

The expansion of oil palm plantations in the Borneo region over the past few decades has generated intense debate concerning its ecological impacts, including deforestation, biodiversity loss, forest fires, and land-use change. This article aims to analyze this phenomenon through a thematic (maudhu‘i) exegetical approach to Qur’anic verses related to the environment, particularly the concepts of fasād fī al-arḍ (corruption on earth), the mandate of human vicegerency (amānah al-khilāfah), and the principle of balance (mīzān). This study employs a qualitative library-based research design using thematic exegesis by collecting relevant verses, examining their asbāb al-nuzūl (occasions of revelation) and munāsabah (textual coherence), and analyzing them through the lens of Islamic ecotheology and contemporary literature on ecological crisis. The findings indicate that the Qur’an normatively prohibits all forms of exploitation that result in systemic damage to ecosystems. The concept of fasād encompasses not only moral corruption but also ecological destruction caused by human excess and transgression (isrāf and ṭughyān). In the context of Borneo, oil palm expansion becomes problematic when its practices disregard principles of sustainability, ecological justice, and the ethical responsibility inherent in human vicegerency. Nevertheless, the Qur’an does not categorically reject economic activity; rather, it emphasizes maintaining a balance between resource utilization and environmental preservation. This study contributes to the advancement of Islamic ecotheological discourse by positioning thematic exegesis as a normative framework for assessing natural resource–based development practices. The findings underscore the urgency of integrating Qur’anic ethics into oil palm plantation management policies to ensure alignment with sustainability principles and ecological responsibility.

Abstract

Kehidupan merupakan salah satu tema utama dalam Al-Qur’an yang mencerminkan keteraturan dan kebijaksanaan Ilahi dalam mencipta alam semesta. Sejumlah penelitian terdahulu telah menelaah konsep al-ḥayāh (kehidupan) dari sisi teologis dan linguistik, namun kajian yang secara mendalam mengintegrasikan tafsir klasik dengan temuan sains modern masih jarang dilakukan. Kesenjangan ini menunjukkan perlunya pembacaan interdisipliner yang mampu menjembatani makna wahyu dengan pemahaman ilmiah tentang sistem kehidupan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji konsep kehidupan dalam Al-Qur’an melalui analisis Tafsir Ruh al-Maani karya al-Alusi dan mengaitkannya dengan teori-teori modern dalam biologi molekuler dan fisika planet. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode analisis tafsir tematik (mawḍū’ī) serta pendekatan tafsir saintifik. Data primer bersumber dari Ruh al-Maani, sedangkan data sekunder berasal dari literatur ilmiah kontemporer yang relevan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa al-Alusi memahami kehidupan sebagai sistem keteraturan yang diatur oleh sunatullah, dengan air, keseimbangan bumi, dan energi cahaya sebagai prasyarat keberlangsungan hidup. Penafsiran tersebut selaras dengan teori modern mengenai asal-usul dan keberlangsungan kehidupan yang menekankan peran air, stabilitas planet, dan energi matahari. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa Ruh al-Maani menawarkan model integratif antara wahyu dan ilmu pengetahuan, yang tidak hanya memperkaya studi tafsir saintifik, tetapi juga memperluas horizon epistemologi Islam dalam memahami kehidupan sebagai manifestasi keesaan dan kebijaksanaan Allah.

Abstract

This study examines verses on marriage with Ahlul Buku through a maqāṣidī interpretation approach in an effort to present a more comprehensive, adaptive, and relevant understanding of contemporary social dynamics. This study is important because the issue of interfaith marriage continues to be debated in Islamic legal discourse and modern family regulations, while many classical readings tend to focus on the literal meaning of the text without considering the objectives of Sharia and the current social context. This study aims to explain the basic concepts of maqāṣidī interpretation, analyze related verses, and assess their relevance and implications in pluralistic family life. The research method is qualitative with a literature review approach, using maqāṣidī steps including verse identification, linguistic and historical context analysis, maqāṣid determination, maslahat-mafsadah evaluation, and formulation of legal recommendations. The results show that the permissibility of marrying Ahlul Buku is conditional and must consider the social impact, protection of faith, and family sustainability. The maqāṣidī approach offers a more proportional answer by placing justice, benefit, and family protection as the main principles. This study recommends strengthening the maqāṣid methodology in tafsir studies, drafting regulations that protect the rights of interfaith family members, and the need for comprehensive premarital education.
