The Qur'anic tÄghÅ«t is one of the most often misused religious concept for supporting radicalism. Under the rules of Isutzu’s scholarship, this research wants to approach the Qur’anic tÄghÅ«t semantically. It concludes that the basic meaning for tÄghÅ«t in the Qur’an is “transgressing bounds†whereas its relational meanings are: idols (in Q. 4: 61, 40: 17, 16: 36), propagandists of digression (Q. 2: 256, 257), false legislation attributed not to God and His Messenger (Q. 4: 60), polytheism (Q. 4: 76) and rebellion to God (Q. 5: 60).
