Abstract

This study examines the Tafsir of Oemar Bakry which appears textualist and intolerant of diversity. Bakry's Tafsir, which is part of the dynamics of Qur'an Tafsir in the archipelago, is paradoxical to the identity of the archipelago, which is known as a multicultural and plural country. Based on this tendency, through a hermeneutical approach, the researcher tries to find the form of Bakry's tafsir that has a puritanical tendency, explore the factors behind Bakry's ideological reasoning, and place the relevance of his interpretation with the current reality. To obtain these results, this research uses qualitative research with primary sources from Oemar Bakry's Tafsir Rahmat, especially his tafsir of the themes of wasīlah, syafā'at, and grave pilgrimage. While secondary sources are found through a search for other literature that supports the research. Based on this research method, this study concludes that Oemar Bakry's puritanical tendency is consistently centered on the theme of wasīlah, syafā'at and grave pilgrimage. While the tendency of ideologization in Tafsir Rahmat is suspected to be influenced by several factors, including Bakry's pre-understanding of the ideology of the reformers, pre-understanding of the concepts of syafā'at, kafir, shirk and the use of a textualist approach in interpreting the Qur'an. Meanwhile, the relevance of Bakry's tafsir to the current reality shows that Bakry's tafsir is intolerant of religious diversity in Indonesia.
