<![CDATA[The relationship between the verse on bequests (Q.S. al-Baqarah [2]:180) and the verses on inheritance (Q.S. al-Nisā’ [4]:11–12) has thus far been understood primarily through the nāsikh-mansūkh paradigm, leaving limited room for a hermeneutical approach that emphasizes legal coherence within the Qur’an. This study aims to reconstruct the relationship between these two verses through maqāṣidī exegesis, thereby developing a more integrative interpretive model. This study employs a qualitative, literature-based approach by analyzing classical and contemporary exegetical literature, works on maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, and studies on Qur’anic legal hermeneutics through thematic and interpretive analysis. The results of the study indicate that the verse on bequests and the verse on inheritance are not in a relationship of legal abrogation but rather in a relationship of takāmul maqāṣidī, which positions both as complementary legal instruments in realizing the objectives of sharia. Based on these findings, this article proposes Relational Maqāṣidī Hermeneutics as an interpretive model that integrates textual coherence, normative function, and maqāṣid orientation for understanding interrelated legal verses. This model contributes to the development of Qur’anic legal hermeneutics by shifting interpretation away from the nāsikh-mansūkh paradigm toward a coherent, integrative, and sharia-oriented approach.]]>
