Abstract

This study explores the paradigms and approaches employed in Quranic studies to mitigate radicalism in Singapore. A qualitative descriptive methodology was utilised to examine the patterns of Quranic study. The primary and secondary data sources comprised the Muslim community in the country, alongside relevant literature including books, journals, and research reports. Data collection methods included interviews, documentation, and observation, with subsequent analysis conducted using qualitative data analysis techniques. The findings reveal that while the Muslim community generally enjoys the freedom of religious practice and access to Islamic educational institutions and organisations, the government has instituted regulations to ensure that Quranic study promotes moderate thought, openness, and interreligious harmony. Although the city provides a conducive environment for Quranic studies, measures are in place to maintain social harmony and prevent potential radicalisation. The Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (MUIS) mandates requirements for preachers, including obtaining permits, demonstrating speaker competency, ensuring appropriate content, providing security assurance, and securing location permits. MUIS employs three main approaches in Quranic study: 1) categorising preachers based on their knowledge, experience, and skills; 2) using interpretive methods such as thematic, linguistic analysis, historical, and comparative approaches, which are regularly evaluated; and 3) monitoring the content of the material through reporting mechanisms and documentation from the start to the end of activities. The study concludes that the approach to Quranic study in the country plays a significant role in shaping understanding and the application of Islamic teachings, underpinned by the values of moderation and religious tolerance.

Abstract

This article examines the characteristics of the manuscript exegesis of Surah al-Baqarah by Abdul Latif Syakur. This study reinforces Islah Gusmian's analysis that tafsirs born from the 20th century to the 1990s object of study revolved around selected surahs or certain juz. This interpretive manuscript needs to reveal its characteristics to strengthen the analysis regarding the systematic presentation, sources, methods, styles, and advantages and disadvantages to demonstrate the information in the manuscript. This research is a literature study of the manuscript tafsir of QS. al-Baqarah and is descriptive analysis. This research shows that the systematic presentation of this interpretation is consistent with the order of the verses in the letter being interpreted, even though all of al-Baqarah's letters have not been completely interpreted. The method used is the global method (ijmāli). The reference sources used are the hadiths of the Prophet Saw, the sayings of ṣaḥabat, qirā'at al-Qur'ān, and sababun nuzul. The dominant style is the lughāwī style, where descriptions of mufradāt and reviews of aspects of nahwu and ṣarf color this interpretation. This interpretation is not free from advantages and disadvantages. Theoretically, the advantage of this interpretation is that it makes it easier for readers to understand the meanings of the verses of the Qur'an. Still, behind this convenience, no more detailed analysis of the interpreted verses is a drawback. Manuscript of QS. al-Baqarah interpretation fills the gap in references, adds to the collection of manuscripts in the field of interpretation, and makes new contributions to the development of Qur'anic studies in Indonesia.
The Construction of Women's Piety Through Women's Special Mushaf Ahsin Dinal Mustafa; Miski Miski

Abstract

The Cordoba Qur'an Special for Muslimah features the '319 thematic interpretations regarding women,' which is intended to 'beautify' women by making them pious women. However, the main question is what kind of 'piety' is meant. From this section, it is evident how women are made objects within it. As an interpretation, this prominent feature is never free of interest. This article aims to explain and analyze the construction of women's piety in the related mushaf and its relevance to the aspects of tafsir scholarship and the context of positioning women in life. By using explanatory and correlative analysis of the 319 thematic interpretations specifically for women in the mushaf, this article shows that women's piety is constructed through the process of thematizing Qur'anic verses according to certain understandings through titles that give a convincing impression because they contain narratives of hadith or explanations by Muslim figures. However, the relevance of these interpretations is questionable, both from the aspect of tafsir scholarship and the aspect of women's existence itself. In fact, in some examples of interpretation, certain parts are neglected, such as the context of the verses and the resulting interpretations that tend to be patriarchal. Thus, this issue cannot be ignored. It is not only related to the discourse of interpretive authority but also concerns gender justice, which deserves attention.

Abstract

This study examines the translation of the Qur’an in the contemporary Western context, focusing on the post-September 11 tragedy. The translation of the Qur’an at this phase serves as a gateway for understanding Islam and plays a pivotal role in shaping the perception of Islam in Western society. Furthermore, these translations are intertwined with Islamic socio-political discourse. This study's primary objective is to analyze the development of methodological approaches in translating the Qur’an in the contemporary West and explore the production of Islamic discourse within these translations. Using textual and content analysis, this research posits that, firstly, the methodology of Qur’an translation in the contemporary West has witnessed significant advancement in methodological aspects. This can be observed through the transition from literal, interlineal, and polemical translations to more contextual and even reformist translations. Secondly, apart from being influenced by the socio-political landscape of Islam in the West, the translations of the Qur’an also contribute to the creation of Islamic discourse, particularly in shaping the perception of Qur’an translation in the contemporary Western context, which strives for openness, contemporaneity, and the restoration of Islam’s image and the Qur’an’s oral power.

Abstract

This qualitative research attempts to trace the epistemology used by KH. Bisri Mustofa in compiling tafsir Al-Ibrīz li Ma'rifat Al-Qur'ān al-'Azīz. This is important to fulfill the need to validate information sources in an era of disinformation-prone disruption. This study, classified as a literature model, uses descriptive analysis based on Ibn Khaldun’s epistemological theory. For this reason, the primary source used is the book of Tafsir Al-Ibrīz li Ma’rifat Al-Qur'ān al-'Azīz in the pegon version, not latin as is widely circulated today. Secondary sources are also added in the form of books, articles, and other writings that are considered relevant to the topic of this study to support the study. The sources were collected using documentation techniques that were analyzed using Ibn Khaldun’s epistemological theory. From the operation of the study, it was found that Al-Ibrīz uses comprehensive sources in ratios, mu’tabar books, expert opinions, the Qur’an, hadith, and even isrāiliyyāt narration. From these sources, Ibn Khaldun’s statement regarding epistemological theory shows that Al-Ibrīz can be categorized as a compatible interpretation. However, it should be noted that not all sources of interpretation used by Bisri Mustofa are free from pros and cons related to their validity. This study shows that the integration of classical Islamic traditions with local Nusantara approaches in tafsir, such as Al-Ibrīz, produces inclusive and relevant works along with the changing times.

Abstract

This study examines the concept of persuasive reasoning (iqna‘i) in the Qur’an, focusing on the narrative of Prophet Ibrahim as interpreted in Tafsir Mafātiḥ al-Ghayb. As a form of deductive reasoning, iqna‘i logic strengthens faith and resilience in the face of trials. The study addresses the gap between the classical narratives of prophetic stories and their relevance to contemporary readers, emphasizing the importance of actualizing the timeless values inherent in these accounts. This study used a qualitative approach by analyzing tafsir, hadith, and related literature to examine the context and implications of Prophet Ibrahim’s use of iqna’i reasoning. His logical approach, characterized by unwavering obedience to Allah, trust in divine plans, steadfastness, courage, and monotheistic teachings, reinforced his faith and resilience during divine tests. This study contributes to understanding iqna’i logic within the Qur’anic framework by offering a concrete example through the story of Prophet Ibrahim. In conclusion, through an in-depth analysis of the story of the Prophet Ibrahim, this article has shown the relevance and actual application of the logic of iqna’i in everyday life, enriching Islamic understanding and inspiring readers to face challenges more confidently.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal Nyai Hannah’s motives in preaching the love of the Qur’an and its influence on preserving Qur’anic values in the digital sphere. Nyai Hannah is one of the female scholars and hafiẓah (female memorizer of the Qur’an) figures from the Pesantren Lirboyo who is widely known, including through social media. The study includes living Qur’an research with a qualitative-descriptive approach and uses the life history method. Data collection is done by purposive sampling through all parties encountering Nyai Hannah: santris (pesantren students), virtual students (viewers/followers) on social media, and Nyai Hannah herself. The Nyai’s role in internalizing Qur’anic messages through videos of reciting the Qur’an, inspirational quotes, and cheerful invitations spread across social media platforms such as Whatsapp, YouTube, Instagram, and even TikTok.  In her contents, she utilizes various resources -symbolic, social, and material- to optimize her preach. There is a shift in preaching motives from private to public throughout her activities. The combination of personal capacity, leadership, social relations, and technological adaptation signifies her role in preserving the values of the Qur’an in the digital era, where she accentuates inclusive and relevant approach to younger generation. Her presence emphasizes the importance of women’s role in spreading Islamic messages and shows that domestic and public activities may intertwin each other. This study is expected to accomodate studies on the performative function and living Qur’an based on digital media to be more responsive to socio-cultural dynamics and technological developments.

Abstract

This article discusses Amina Wadud’s gender equality argument in interpreting the verse of jilbab in QS. al-Aḥzab [33]: 59. This is based on the historical fact that the verse is always associated with the command for women to veil and distinguish between free and enslaved person women during the jahiliyah period. Using a descriptive-analytical qualitative method with Amina Wadud’s gender analysis approach, this article concludes that the understanding of QS. al-Aḥzab [33]: 59 warns Muslims always to control themselves, guard and protect women, and not neglect the commandments of Allah. From the perspective of Amina Wadud’s progressive interpretation, QS. al-Aḥzab [33]: 59, which is initially interpreted as women getting orders to veil and not dress openly as self-protection from sexual harassment from the opposite sex, develops to get protection from all kinds of dangers that befall it. This verse instructs the prohibition of harming or harassing women because, in the public sphere, they have a strategic position to foster aspects of community morality. Changes supported by modern currents show that the opportunity for women’s contribution has developed relatively high, so the umbrella of protection for women has become a significant thing. This is in line with Pasal 28G Ayat (1) UUD 1945, which mandates that the state guarantee the enjoyment of rights without discrimination and gender differences. Thus, Amina Wadud’s argument indicates that protection under any conditions for women must be established to have a positive impact on the progress of sexually-based morals in society and eliminate the culture of objectification attached to women.
Epistemology of Nusantara Exegesis in the 17th Century: A Study of Tarjumān al-Mustafīd by Abdurrauf al-Singkili Lail, Moh. Jamalul; Hidayat, M. Riyan; Wijaya, Roma

Abstract

The position of Tarjumān al-Mustafīd by Abdurrauf al-Singkili as a precedent for interpretive literature in Indonesia has ontological problems. Accusations circulated that Tarjumān al-Mustafīd was just a translated copy of al-Baiḍāwi's commentary on Anwār al-Tanzīl wa Asrār al-Ta'wīl. In comparison, other groups consider it a translation of Tafsīr Jalālayn. These two claims seem to cast doubt on Tarjumān Al-Mustafīd as an authentic interpretation work. Every work of interpretation always involves the subjectivity of the interpreter. Through an analysis of the epistemology of interpretation, this research reveals the genealogy, method, and validity of al-Singkili's interpretation in Tarjumān al-Mustafīd. The findings of this research highlight three essential aspects: First, Tarjumān al-Mustafīd is not merely the result of translation (vernacularization) of one particular interpretation as has been alleged so far. Several other tafsir, such as Tafsīr Jalālayn and Tafsīr al-Khāzin, also influenced the presentation pattern of Tarjumān al-Mustafīd. Second, al-Singkili's interpretive method is similar to al-Baiḍāwi but not wholly the same. Al-Singkili also adopted the pattern of writing the Indonesian turath books, which use keywords such as fāidah, tanbīh, the word mufasir, and others. Third, Tarjumān al-Mustafīd qualifies as a valid or authentic interpretation of consistency and correspondence. This research offers a novel contribution by positioning Tarjumān al-Mustafīd as a unique synthesis of classical Islamic exegesis and the scholarly tradition of the Nusantara, demonstrating its originality as an interpretive work that bridges global Islamic scholarship with localized epistemological frameworks.
Revisiting Classical Exegesis on Nushūz in the Qur’an and Its Relevance to Contemporary Domestic Violence in Indonesia Fatah, Abdul; Karim, Abdul; Waro, Mochamad Tholib Khoiril

Abstract

This study re-examines the classical interpretations of nushūz and ḍaraba found in QS. An-Nisā’ [4]:34, 128 and explores their relevance to domestic violence issues in Indonesia. The research method that was employed is a literature study that explores the words nushūz and wadribū (ḍaraba: to hit) in QS. An-Nisā'[4]:34 and 128 through the commentaries of al-Ṭabarī, al- Qurṭubī, and Ibn Kathīr from the perspective of gender equality. The findings indicate that al-Ṭabarī views nushūz as a wife’s arrogance, al-Qurṭubī interprets it as animosity between spouses, and Ibn Kathīr regards it as the wife neglecting her obligations. In QS. An-Nisā’ [4]:128, nushūz is understood as the husband’s negligence or withdrawal from his wife. Meanwhile, waḍribūhunna in QS. An-Nisā’ [4]:34 is interpreted by al-Ṭabarī as a non-harmful physical measure, by al-Qurṭubī as a light, corrective action, and by Ibn Kathīr as a blow that causes no injury. Although these classical interpretations often depict the wife as the erring party and the husband as being in the right—a stance that risks perpetuating unequal power dynamics—the Qur’an itself underscores the principle of equality between men and women. In this light, nushūz should apply to both spouses, reflecting the possibility that either partner could be at fault. Al-Qurṭubī’s understanding of nushūz as mutual hatred is more compatible with notions of gender equity. Additionally, interpreting ḍaraba as “offering guidance” or “providing a positive example” is more appropriate than viewing it as a physical strike, which can escalate into domestic violence. This reinterpretation, therefore, holds promise for fostering more equitable marital relationships in contemporary society.
