Abstract

This study examines the interpretation of two contemporary Indonesian mufassirs (interpreters of the Qur'an), Hamka and Quraish Shihab, regarding Surah at-Talaq verse 4 concerning the concept of women's 'iddah (waiting period). The background of this research is the need for a profound understanding from the perspective of modern scholars regarding the waiting period for women in various biological conditions. This is a library research using a comparative method (muqarran). The results show that both Hamka and Quraish Shihab agree on the classification of the 'iddah period for menopausal women, those who have not menstruated, and pregnant women. The fundamental difference lies in their interpretive approaches; Hamka tends to use a comprehensive approach emphasizing ethical and social aspects (ijtima'i), while Quraish Shihab is more analytical, focusing on legal aspects and the duration of the waiting period based on the woman's biological condition.
