Abstract

This study examines the significance of ṣalawat ashghil as embodied in the non-violent resistance of the Wadas residents in Purworejo against the construction of the Bener dam. Contrary to the common perception that religion and environmental activism are separate spheres, the people of Wadas demonstrate how religious expression can be closely intertwined with ecological protest. By employing resistance theory and a phenomenological approach, this qualitative research investigates how the recitation of ṣalawat ashghil functions as a form of religious resistance. The findings reveal that this non-violent resistance is deeply rooted in the community’s understanding of the Qur’an and hadīth, embodying what can be described as a lived interpretation of these texts. The villagers attribute spiritual power and protective efficacy to the practice of ṣalawāt ashghīl, viewing it as a means of confronting injustice. Drawing on James C. Scott’s theory of resistance, their actions constitute a subtle yet enduring form of dissent that operates without overt confrontation with dominant power structures. This case offers an alternative framework for understanding Islamic resistance by illustrating how devotional practices can serve as potent vehicles for socio-environmental critique.

Abstract

Ibn Taymīyah singled out his long refutation against an Ash‘arite theologian Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī on ta’wīl in his Dar’ Ta‘āruḍ al-‘Aql wa al-Naql. The main contention between the two is whether rational evidence should take precedence over scriptural evidence when interpreting passages in the Qur’an. When dealing with the difficult passages that could lead to anthropomorphism, the Ash‘arite employ allegorical interpretation, or ta’wīl, thereby priority is given to reason. It is with this problem in mind that Ibn Taymīyah launched his sustained critique towards al-Rāzī. However, upon further consideration, Ibn Taymīyah’s criticism of al-Rāzī appears to overlook the broader framework that the latter brought to the discussion, particularly regarding the reciprocal relationship between reason and revelation in his theory of inference and its origins in earlier Asharīte’s epistemology. This article aims to discuss the debates between the two scholars by putting their main contention in the context. Firstly, the article will provide an analysis on al-Rāzī’s methodological and epistemological approach to resolving the problem of the relationship between reason and revelation. The folllowing section will exemine how Ibn Taymīyah responded to al-Rāzī, and the criticism he leveled against him. The final section will assess the debates, evaluating the extent to which Ibn Taymīyah succeeded in refuting al-Rāzī and identifying any misunderstandings he may have had regarding al-Rāzī’s arguments.

Abstract

This study aims to discuss the Rumah Tahfiz Qur’an (RTQ), which has recently emerged in several regions of Indonesia. In the historical context of Qur’anic education in Indonesia, these institutions are relatively new. Traditionally, Qur’anic education has been intensively practiced in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) with their longstanding traditions. However, over the past decade, RTQs have proliferated in various regions. Through field research in six districts in Solo Raya, this article demonstrates that the emergence of RTQs is driven by diverse individuals and social groups, each finding their own responses and followers. Notably, most of the founders and managers are young individuals who lack Qur’anic experience from pesantren or specialized Qur’anic training. Additionally, parents who enroll their children in RTQs generally desire for their children to become proficient in reading and memorizing the Qur’an, while they themselves are occupied with work. Consequently, this article argues that RTQs represent a new trend in Qur’anic education that offer a different approach to the traditional pesantren model. Furthermore, this phenomenon reflects a form of identity seeking among Muslims who strive to remain pious and relevant in contemporary times.

Abstract

This article explores the complex relationship between the wicked actions of Lūṭ’s community, as described in the Qur’an, and the particular type of retribution, known as ‘adhāb, that they experienced. The study used a qualitative research approach to thoroughly examine the Qur’ānic passages, aiming to reveal subtle connections between crimes and divine punishment. This research enhances comprehension of the concept of divine justice as depicted in the Qur’an by utilizing the theoretical framework of the theory of retribution, provided in a thematical explanation. The inquiry delves into the causality of the ‘adhāb as an effect of human transgressions, and in the study of Lūṭ’s narrative, there are various torments bestowed. The findings not only reveal historical and moral lessons embedded in the account of Lūṭ’s tribe but also offer a methodological framework for examining comparable narratives in the Qur’ān. This study seeks to prompt debates on the deep correlations between human behavior and divine repercussions, enhancing understanding of Islamic scriptures’ ethical and spiritual lessons.

Abstract

The article examines the Qur’anic concept of martyrdom often linked to jihad as an armed conflict. While the Arabic term is associated with dying in battle, the original Qur’anic meaning is to bear testimony to the truth of Islam, which can be done in many ways. Using content analysis, this study examines modern Indonesian interpretations of the concept of martyrdom by Quraish Shihab, Hamka, and Nawawī al-Bantanī and compares them with the classical commentaries. The research highlights that the idea of military martyrdom is too narrow to give justice to this concept. Early and later sources show a broad range of definitions of “dying in the cause of Allah”. The article argues that understanding the role of the martyr (shahīd) solely in the context of warfare is too narrow an interpretation. A broader interpretation of martyrdom is offered to provide a moderate, relevant perspective for contemporary Indonesian Muslims, suggesting that the concept of shahīd encompasses much more than just the notion of the believer dying in battle.

Abstract

This article analyzes the oral and written aspects of the Qur’an through Angelika Neuwirth’s pre-canonical framework, using sūrah al-Ikhlāṣ as a case study. It highlights Neuwirth’s argument that the oral nature of the Qur’an is essential for understanding its original communicative context, which has been obscured by its textual codification. The study employs a historical-critical methodology to examine the sociolinguistic context and the dynamic oral features of the Qur’an prior to its codification. Drawing on Neuwirth’s foundational works and supported by secondary literature, it proposes a pre-canonical reading approach that seeks to recover the socio-historical dimensions often overlooked in canonical interpretations. By exploring the interplay between oral and written dimensions, this study reveals how sūrah al-Ikhlāṣ reflects its early reception and positions it within its historical and cultural context. It addresses the broader question of how pre-canonical approaches enhance understanding of the Qur’an’s formative period. The findings underscore the layered meanings and contextual aspect embedded in the text which demonstrates the potential of pre-canonical readings to uncover the Qur’an’s historical and communicative complexities.

Abstract

The practice of Qur’an memorisation, or taḥfīẓ, holds deep spiritual and educational significance in Islamic tradition. In Indonesia, the introduction of tailored muṣḥafs—specialised Qur’anic editions featuring colour-coded tajwīd rules, progress trackers, and other mnemonic aids—has transformed the landscape of taḥfīẓ practices. This study explores the reception of these muṣḥafs among taḥfīẓ circles, focusing on both institutional and individual perspectives. Using qualitative methods, including interviews and observations conducted in taḥfīẓ institutions, the research reveals that while institutions value tailored muṣḥafs for their ability to standardise and streamline memorisation process, individual memorisers appreciate their personalised features, which foster autonomy and spiritual engagement. These muṣḥafs are particularly celebrated for their inclusivity, making Qur’an memorisation accessible to diverse demographics beyond formal settings. However, challenges such as the commodification of religious texts and potential over-reliance on visual aids raise concerns about preserving the oral and spiritual essence of the taḥfīẓ tradition. The findings underscore the dual role of tailored muṣḥafs in modernising the taḥfīẓ practice while highlighting the need for a balanced approach to sustain its sacred and cultural heritage.

Abstract

In recent years, there has been growing interest in how Islamic knowledge is disseminated in the digital age, particularly through charismatic figures who blend traditional learning with modern communication strategies. One such figure is Nouman Ali Khan, a prominent and influential Muslim speaker known for his engaging and accessible approach to Qur’anic interpretation. Despite his wide-reaching impact, academic analysis of Khan’s contribution to contemporary Qur’anic discourse remains limited. This study seeks to address that gap by examining his exegetical strategies and primary areas of focus in his interpretive work. Using qualitative methods, it analyzes data collected from various sources, including social media platforms, public lectures, and scholarly references to Khan’s teachings. Unlike classical exegetes who often draw on theology, jurisprudence, and philosophy, Khan concentrates on the linguistic and rhetorical dimensions of the Qur’an. His interpretive emphasis lies in the eloquence of the Qur’anic text—its word choice, structure, thematic shifts, and stylistic beauty—rather than on legal or theological implications. He highlights features such as the rhythm, sequence, and subtle changes in wording to reveal the Qur’an’s moral and spiritual lessons. This unique focus has made his work especially resonant among audiences seeking a deeper yet accessible understanding of the Qur’anic message.

Abstract

This article offers a thematic and contextual rereading of Qs. Saba’ (34:15), a verse that narrates the prosperity and downfall of the ancient Sabaean civilization. Through this verse, the Qur’an articulates a profound ethical vision in which true prosperity emerges from the harmonious integration of spiritual consciousness, social justice, and ecological responsibility. Drawing on classical and contemporary tafsir, this study examines how diverse exegetical traditions interpret key elements of the verse, from historical narratives and theological reflections to socio-environmental concerns. The analysis indicates that the ingratitude and mismanagement of divine blessings exhibited by the Sabaean people function as a historical cautionary tale and a timeless warning concerning the moral and ecological consequences of human negligence. By situating this Qur’anic episode within the context of present-day global challenges, such as environmental degradation, resource exploitation, and widening social inequality, this study argues that the Qur’an offers an enduring ethical framework for reimagining the foundations of sustainable development. In doing so, it contributes to broader discussions on how scriptural traditions can inform contemporary ecological and moral thought.

Abstract

This article examines the psychological dynamics of leadership within the context of the Israelites, focusing on the analysis of Qs. Al-Baqarah: 246-251 through the psycho-literature approach. The study aims to understand the personality conflicts of key figures in the narrative based on Sigmund Freud’s personality structure: id, ego, and superego. The research employs a qualitative method using library research and content analysis. The findings reveal that the story of the Israelites contains significant moral lessons, particularly in the context of leadership and responses to challenges. The conflict between instinctual drives (id), rationality (ego), and moral values (superego) is clearly reflected in the decisions and actions of the characters, representing the psychological state of the society at that time. Adherence to moral and spiritual values, represented by the superego, is shown to be a critical factor in achieving success and blessings. This study emphasizes the importance of balancing personality components in building effective leadership and highlights the relevance of Qur'anic narratives as an enduring source of moral guidance.
