Abstract

This study examines the story of the Prophet Yunus in the Qur’an and the Bible using Julia Kristeva's intertextual approach. This analysis will compare and examine the differences and similarities between the two narratives of the Prophet Yunus. We will analyze the structure, themes, and principles in the two stories of the Prophet Jonah and how they can help us understand the intent and purpose behind the stories. In the Koran, the story of the Prophet Yunus is told in Surah Yunus and several other verses. This story tells of the Prophet Jonah who was sent by God to preach to the people of Nineveh, but he ran away and was eventually swallowed by a big fish. This story then ends with the Prophet Jonah repenting and returning to preach to the people of Nineveh. In the Bible, the story of the Prophet Jonah is told in the Book of Jonah. This story also tells of the Prophet Jonah who was sent by God to preach to the people of Nineveh, but he ran away and was eventually swallowed by a big fish. However, the story in the Bible has several experiences with the story in the Koran, such as the story of the Prophet Jonah who was angry and disappointed with God for not allowing him to punish the people of Nineveh. By using Julia Kristeva's intertextual approach, we can compare and examine the differences and similarities between the two narratives of the Prophet Jonah. The results of this study show that the story of the Prophet Yunus in the Koran and the Bible has several differences and similarities, but both have the same goal, namely to remind humans about the power and mercy of Allah. In this case, the Qur'an applies intertextual principles to the Bible, namely haplology, modification, expansion, existence, conversion and parallel.

Abstract

This article explores the journey of hadith historiography by Nusantara scholars, which is an important element in the understanding and development of Islam in the region. Using a historical approach and textual analysis, this study reveals how Nusantara scholars understood, narrated, and integrated hadith in a unique local context. The study begins with the historical background of the arrival of Islam in Nusantara, followed by the development of hadith studies brought by early scholars. In this article, it is emphasized how the process of adaptation and integration of hadith with local culture not only enriched the context of Nusantara Islam but also showed the uniqueness of hadith interpretation and application that differs from Islamic traditions elsewhere. Through textual analysis of various books by Nusantara scholars, this study highlights their methodology in verifying and narrating hadith, as well as its influence on the formation of Islamic identity in the region. This article also discusses the challenges and controversies faced by Nusantara scholars in their efforts to maintain the sanctity of hadith amidst changing social and cultural dynamics. Thus, this study provides insight into the significant contribution of Nusantara scholars to hadith historiography and their role in enriching global Islamic discourse.

Abstract

In general, the Qur'an is defined as a book containing a collection of Allah's words, a miracle revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. The creation of the universe has been explained in the Qur'an with various natural phenomena that are shown to be strong factors to show that this universe has a creator and cannot stand alone. Then, cosmology is a branch of metaphysics, namely as a science that investigates and studies the cosmos (universe) which is usually defined as everything other than God Almighty. This study uses a library research design that aims to obtain information and integrate science and Islam. From these opinions, we can take the understanding that cosmology is the initial theory of the creation of the universe, who created it, when it was created, how the process was and so on. There are several famous theories in the creation of the universe, such as the big bang theory, the steady state theory, the oscillation theory and the balloon theory. Islam and science are two aspects that are always related, the emergence of the discipline of cosmology in natural science as a result of philosophical questions about the creation of the universe. Islam, with its book of guidance, is able to answer and provide a solution to the curiosity of people who question the creation of the universe.

Abstract

Amsalul Qur’an, or Qur’anic parables, represent a unique rhetorical form in the Qur’an that conveys deep symbolic meanings aimed at delivering moral and spiritual messages in a persuasive and emotionally resonant way. The complexity of meaning within Qur’anic parables demands interpretive approaches that are not only textual but also contextual and multidisciplinary. This research is motivated by the need for an Islamic educational model that is more communicative and reflective of contemporary societal conditions. The aim of this study is to identify the strategic role of Amsalul Qur’an in conveying Islamic educational values and to evaluate its implications for meaningful learning processes. The study employs a qualitative approach with content analysis of parabolic verses in the Qur’an, along with a review of tafsir literature, Islamic education theories, and educational communication frameworks. The findings reveal that Amsalul Qur’an functions as an effective narrative bridge in internalizing the values of monotheism, justice, patience, and social responsibility. The study recommends integrating the amsal approach into Islamic education methodologies to foster more reflective, dialogical, and transformative learning experiences. Thus, Amsalul Qur’an holds strategic potential as an instrument in character building and the strengthening of students’ spirituality in the modern era.
