Abstract

The evolution of digital media has given rise to the phenomenon of Quranic ASMR as a novel form of religious experience believed to foster inner peace. This phenomenon warrants examination through the lens of Quranic exegesis (tafsir), specifically regarding Surah Al-Isra’. This study addresses two research questions: the concept of inner peace in Surah Al-Isra’ as interpreted in M. Quraish Shihab’s Tafsir Al-Mishbah, and its relevance to the Quranic ASMR phenomenon. The study aims to analyze the concept of inner peace found in Surah Al-Isra’ verses 9, 82, 95, 107, and 109, and to explain its relevance to Quranic ASMR as a medium for da’wah (Islamic outreach) and spiritual therapy in the digital age. The research employs a library research methodology utilizing a thematic exegesis (maudhu’i) approach and descriptive analysis. The findings indicate that inner peace, according to Tafsir Al-Mishbah, is constructed through five dimensions: hidayah (divine guidance), shifa’ wa raḥmah (healing and mercy), istiqrar(stability/tranquility), taslim (submission), and khusyu’ (humility/reverence). These five dimensions are relevant to the Quranic ASMR phenomenon, which facilitates relaxation, spiritual immersion, and receptivity to the Quran’s messages. The study concludes that while Quranic ASMR can serve as a medium to support the actualization of inner peace, the primary source of such peace remains the content and guidance of the Quran itself.
