Abstract

In the discourse of rewarding the dead by reading the Qur’an on Qs. al-Najm [53]: 39, Ibn Kathīr is aloof from previous interpretations of the Qur’an in his argument. This study aims to trace the genealogy of the discourse of the rewarding of reading the Qur’an in tafsīr and why Ibn Kathīr became an interpreter who was alone in his argument. By tracing through genealogical reading and looking at social-historical aspects, this paper concludes that Ibn Kathīr built his argument by relying on his fiqh lineage through his teacher Ibn Firkah rather than the tafsīr lineage. Further, there is also strong evidence suggesting that this issue was actively debated, and Ibn Kathīr wanted to get involved. This paper also provides remark to Walid Saleh's idea on genealogical tafsīr, which should also be read at the micro level, where tafsīr can be separated in the tradition of previous tafsīr. This research also emphasizes Younus Mirza’s argument that Ibn Kathīr has to be seen as a disciple of the al-Shāfi‘ī jurist rather than Ibn Taymīya.

Abstract

This study examines how Javanese Muslims integrate Qur’anic reception into the ritual care and preservation of the Kris. While the Kris has shifted from being a weapon to a symbolic object of art and cultural heritage, its preservation remains deeply intertwined with religious meaning. Within Javanese Muslim communities, Qur’anic recitation accompanies rituals surrounding the Kris, transforming it into a medium for embodying Islamic values. Using qualitative methods, this research examines how such practices localize scripture through material culture. The findings identify three typologies of Qur’anic reception: (1) Exegetical reception, encompassing ḥabl min Allāh (relation with God), ḥabl min al-nās (ethical relations with others), and ḥabl min al-‘ālam (ecological consciousness); (2) Aesthetic reception, manifested in the Kris’s tayuhan (decorative form), symbolizing humility and moral refinement; and (3) Functional reception, where the Kris serves as a medium for balance and harmony in life. By examining the Qur’an within the context of cultural practice, this study enriches the discourse on Qur’anic reception and hermeneutics. It contributes to scholarship on Islam in Southeast Asia by demonstrating how cultural artifacts, such as the Kris, preserve and embody religious meaning beyond textual exegesis. The Qur’anic receptions embodied in the preservation of the Kris reflect discursive meanings and performative engagements with the Qur’an that transcend its textual interpretation.

Abstract

This study examines the transmission of seven Qur’anic readings (qirā’āh sab‘ah) in Qur’anic boarding schools (pesantren) in Malang, East Java, a subject rarely addressed in Indonesian Qur’anic studies. It investigates how this tradition affirms the Qur’an’s authenticity while shaping networks of authority and pedagogy. Using a qualitative socio-historical approach that combines archival research and fieldwork, the study traces how knowledge of Qur’anic readings (qirā’āt) was transmitted, adapted, and legitimized. The findings reveal that continuity was secured through the agency of Kiai Mustain, whose transmission remained anchored in Kiai Arwani’s Fayḍ al-Barakāt. Although later generations adjusted teaching methods to contemporary contexts, their authority was sustained by genealogical fidelity, interpersonal bonds, and institutional ties. The study argues that the network of Qur’anic readings in Malang developed into an elite form of scholarship, simultaneously reinforcing conventional authority structures and adapting to changing educational and social dynamics. These findings contribute to broader discussions on Qur’anic transmission, religious authority, and pedagogical adaptation in Southeast Asian Islam.

Abstract

This article analyzes the claims made by the Instagram account @hadits_lemah concerning the controversy surrounding the validity of the Baalawi lineage through Michel Foucault’s theory of the relationship between power and knowledge. The analysis of ḥadīths related to lineage and Ahl al-Bayt reveals that the content posted by @hadits_lemah, which questions the authenticity of Fāṭimah’s lineage, has sparked significant controversy. The account refers to Shaykh al-Albānī to label the ḥadīth as weak (ḍa‘īf), leading many to conclude that Fāṭimah’s lineage was cut off, although further analysis confirms the ḥadīth’s weakness. The provocative content has triggered harsh responses, including insults and slander directed at Habibs and the Baalawi in Indonesia. What began as a scholarly discourse has devolved into personal attacks and hate speech, driven by dissatisfaction with certain Baalawi figures who are perceived not to be descendants of the Prophet due to their lack of prophetic ethics. In contemporary Indonesian Islam, respect for the Ahl al-Bayt of the Prophet is deeply rooted in the teachings of the Qur’ān and ḥadīth, though its practice varies among scholars. While some emphasize respect regardless of character, others argue that respect should be based on piety and righteous deeds, underscoring that actions, not lineage, determine nobility in Islam.
Authority, Intellectual Networks and Politics in the Canonization of Ṣaḥīḥ Al-Bukhārī and Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Ḥibbān Adnan Muzaki, Kiki; Ahmad Fudhaili; Habil Abyad; Faisal Mahmoud Adam

Abstract

This study examines the canonization process of Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī and Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Ḥibbān, considering that both possess similar critical authority and methodology yet hold differing reputations. Employing a qualitative method with a historical-comparative approach, the study draws upon classical sources on tarājim al-ruwwāt, historiography, and al-jarḥ wa al-ta‘dīl, as well as relevant contemporary academic scholarship. The findings demonstrate that al-Bukhārī’s methodological superiority provided a strong foundation for the widespread acceptance of his work. However, the canonical status of Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī did not emerge solely from methodological precision and personal authority, but also from layered social processes, including traditions of scholarly criticism and defense, networks of knowledge transmission, and political as well as institutional support. By contrast, Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Ḥibbān who has comparable methodical and personal authority   did not undergo the same social and historical trajectory, so that it does have the same reputation as al-Bukhari. This study fills an analytical gap in ḥadīth studies by demonstrating that the divergent historical trajectories of these two collections were not rooted in methodological disparities only, but also in distinct socio-historical contexts, scholarly networks, and political patronage.

Abstract

The spread of intolerance and radicalism among adolescents has made the internalization of religious moderation increasingly urgent for basic and secondary education. This study examines the ḥadīth content of the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teaching materials used in parallel at SMP Islam Al-Azhar 29 Semarang and its implications for cultivating moderation, viewed through a psychological lens. Through a qualitative content analysis and comparative reading of the two sets of materials, those of the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education and those of the Al-Azhar Islamic Education Foundation (YPI Al-Azhar), the study classifies ḥadīth content into four fields (creed, jurisprudence, Islamic history and culture, and ethics) and assesses the strength of its implications for moderation. Three findings emerge. First, both sets present ḥadīths in two modes, explicit (with Arabic text, translation, and source) and implicit (paraphrase or attribution without them). Second, the Ministry materials show greater moderation potential by number of chapters, the YPI Al-Azhar materials by number of ethics-related ḥadīths. Third, the Ministry materials emphasize the social dimension of moderation, while the YPI Al-Azhar materials emphasize its ritual dimension. The two sets are therefore complementary, and their use is best reinforced by a psychological-pedagogical approach: experiential learning, modeling and habituation, and emotion regulation.

Abstract

This study examines the phenomenon of secondary embedding in the Qur’an, understood as the incorporation of Medinan material into surahs of Meccan provenance through a process of intra-textual development during the prophetic period. The case under consideration is Qs. al-Muddaththir [74]:31, a verse whose exceptional length constitutes a marked statistical departure from the otherwise compact rhythmic pattern of the surah. Drawing on Nicolai Sinai’s analytical framework and the principle of structural cohesion, this article argues that when the verse is analytically bracketed as a distinct literary layer, the thematic continuity of the surrounding passage remains intact, no discernible narrative gap emerges, and the surah’s overall rhythmic and structural balance is preserved. It is further proposed that the motive underlying this embedding is responsive in character, the verse appears to address dialogical concerns arising from the early audience’s engagement with the Qur’anic proclamation, while the phrase fī qulūbihim maraḍ aligns terminologically with vocabulary characteristic of the Medinan discursive context. This study contributes to the growing scholarly conversation on the dynamic textual development of the Qur’an, particularly as it pertains to surah structure and its relationship to the evolving social and theological horizons of the early Muslim community. It further offers a methodological contribution to the diachronic study of surah composition, demonstrating how structural and terminological analysis may illuminate the Qur’an’s responsive engagement with its formative historical context.
Human Autonomy and Divine Sovereignty: Negotiating Moral Freedom and Predestination in the Qur’an Fakhri Afif; Irma Riyani

Abstract

This article pursues a philosophical reading of the Qur’an’s moral discourse on human freedom and divine sovereignty. Through an ethical close reading of Qur’anic verses and a semantic-conceptual analysis of mashī’ah, istiṭā‘ah, mas’ūliyyah, qadr, qaḍā’, and ‘adl, the study brings the philosophical category of relational freedom as a heuristic to the text, demonstrating that the Qur’an’s conceptual architecture actively enriches it. Methodologically, the inquiry draws on Abou El Fadl’s negotiative hermeneutics to navigate the author-text-reader dialectic and to assess the ethical stakes of competing interpretations. The findings establish that the Qur’an presupposes genuine moral agency through its idioms of non-coercion, taklīf, ḥisāb, and the moral evaluation of intention, while situating this agency within a divinely ordered structure of measure and decree grounded in ‘adl. Qadr is construed as a principle of causal measurability, and qaḍā’ as the moment of decisive actualization. The reading rejects predestination as a moral alibi while refusing to inflate human agency into a sovereignty that fractures the tawḥīdic horizon. This study contributes a philosophically rigorous framework for reading Qur’anic moral theology beyond the fatalism-autonomy impasse, and opens a constructive dialogue between Islamic moral thought and contemporary philosophy of agency that neither domesticates the Qur’anic account nor insulates it from critical engagement.

Abstract

The legal school of Isḥāq b. Rāhawayh (d. 238/853) did not survive as a distinct tradition in later generations, yet it remains a significant part of early Islamic intellectual history, especially in the third century AH. Although his school disappeared, aspects of Ibn Rāhawayh’s legal thought are still preserved in works of fiqh and ḥadīth, particularly in Sunan al-Tirmidhī. This article seeks to compile and analyze his legal opinions as recorded in that work and to examine their characteristics in relation to ḥadīth and legal reasoning. Through a heuristic examination of Sunan al-Tirmidhī combined with comparative and content analysis, the study finds that most of Isḥāq b. Rāhawayh’s legal opinions are firmly grounded in ḥadīth, although some rely on weak reports. It also shows that his views display a strong textual orientation and reflect notable affinities with the legal reasoning of al-Shāfi‘ī (d. 204/820) and Aḥmad b. Ḥanbal (d. 241/855). This is evident in legal arguments that do not exhibit rigid doctrinal boundaries, but instead mirror broader patterns of juristic reasoning among scholars of his time. At the same time, his occasional reliance on weak ḥadīth and his departure from majority positions in several legal issues distinguish his thought from that of many of his contemporaries. This study thus contributes to recovering a neglected strand of early Islamic legal thought and highlights that diversity was not an anomaly, but a constitutive feature of the Islamic intellectual tradition.
