Abstract

This article aims to discuss the historical development of Qur’anic exegesis during the Abbasid dynasty, namely from 750 CE to 1258 CE. The discussion focuses on the history of the Abbasid dynasty, the development and codification of exegesis, the works and exegetes, as well as the dominant philosophical pattern of exegesis. This study employs a qualitative method and a type of library research that focuses on the study of texts and ideas concerning the dynamics of the development of Qur’anic exegesis and the emergence of philosophical exegesis during the Abbasid era. The results of this study indicate that the codification of exegesis writing, which began from the time of the Prophet until the medieval period, gave rise to a new method of interpretation, namely bi al-ra’y. This form of exegesis is based on previous  interpretations  derived  from  the  Prophet’s  hadith,  the  sayings  of the companions, and the tabi‘in. Regarding philosophical exegesis, the scientific confrontation that occurs within it departs from the classification of interpretive patterns into two, namely bi al-ma’thūr and bi al-ra’y (bi al-ijtihād), with philosophical exegesis included in this category. Meanwhile, the difference between the two lies in the presence or absence of a foundation in historical and linguistic realities within the text of the Qur’an as the basis of interpretation. This article contributes to enriching the treasury of Islamic thought by affirming that philosophical exegesis, although it invites pros and cons, plays an important role as a bridge between rationality and spirituality, while also showing that the Qur’an can be understood as an open text that encourages the human intellect to continuously explore new wisdom in line with the development of science and technology. In addition, the dialectic between revelation and reason during the Abbasid period demonstrates the strength of the Islamic intellectual tradition, so Muslims need to be open and realize that faith must be accompanied by deep understanding.

Abstract

Kajian tafsir al-Qur’an selama ini cenderung menempatkan ayat-ayat normatif yang memuat perintah dan larangan sebagai pusat perhatian, terutama dalam konteks hukum Islam. Akibatnya, ayat-ayat al-Qur’an yang tidak secara eksplisit mengandung muatan normatif sering kali diposisikan sebagai pelengkap dan belum dikaji secara sistematis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi ayat-ayat non-normatif dalam al-Qur’an, menganalisis penafsiran para mufassir terhadap ayat-ayat tersebut, serta menjelaskan fungsi dan signifikansinya dalam struktur pesan wahyu. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif berbasis kepustakaan dengan pendekatan tafsir tematik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ayat-ayat non-normatif memiliki fungsi strategis dalam membentuk kesadaran keimanan, memperkuat ketahanan batin, dan membangun orientasi etis pembaca melalui mekanisme naratif dan reflektif. Ayat-ayat tersebut bekerja secara regulatif tidak melalui instruksi hukum yang eksplisit, melainkan melalui internalisasi nilai dan pembingkaian cara pandang terhadap realitas. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa kebermaknaan wahyu tidak ditentukan semata oleh kandungan normatifnya, melainkan juga oleh daya transformasi ayat-ayat non-normatif dalam membentuk manusia beriman secara utuh. Penelitian ini berkontribusi dalam memperkaya studi tafsir al-Qur’an dengan menawarkan pembacaan yang lebih holistik dan kontekstual terhadap keragaman gaya komunikasi wahyu.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the characteristics of the modern Millennial and Alpha generations, as well as the emerging phenomenon of the Sigma generation, from a Qur’anic perspective using a thematic exegesis approach. Although these generational terms are not explicitly mentioned in the Qur’an, their social and psychological characteristics can be analyzed through fundamental Qur’anic concepts such as fitrah, amanah, moral responsibility, balance (tawazun), and social ethics. Using a qualitative research method based on a literature review, this study analyzes Qur’anic verses relevant to the discussion theme through an examination of both classical and modern Islamic literature. The results indicate that the Qur’an provides a comprehensive ethical framework for addressing the challenges faced by generations  in  the  digital age. The Millennial  Generation  is  characterized by adaptability and critical awareness, yet also faces risks of information overload and moral inconsistency, which the Qur’an addresses through the principles of accountability and trust. The Alpha Generation faces challenges in preserving fitrah amidst early exposure to technology, underscoring the urgency of values-based education rooted in Qur’anic teachings. Meanwhile, the Sigma generation reflects a strong level of individual autonomy, which is acceptable within the Qur’anic framework as long as it remains in harmony with piety and social responsibility. This study concludes that the Qur’an remains a relevant and dynamic source of ethical guidance in shaping the character of contemporary generations amid rapid social and technological change.

Abstract

Amid the expanding waves of digital transformation, human moral integrity is facing new challenges in the form of visual exposure and the commodification of the body in cyberspace. This article aims to actualize the essential message of QS. An-Nūr verses 30–32 through the perspective of Tafsīr Maqāṣidī as formulated by Abdul Mustaqim, in order to address the challenges posed by increasingly open modern lifestyles. Employing a qualitative method based on library research, and utilizing a maqāṣidī exegetical approach to QS. An-Nūr verses 30–32, this study seeks to uncover the Islamic concept of honor, which is then contextualized within contemporary social realities to produce findings that are systematic, analytical, and scientifically accountable. The findings indicate that the verses on honor are not merely strict regulations, but rather constitute a comprehensive system for the protection of human dignity, particularly through the commands to lower the gaze and cover the ‘awrah as stated in QS. An-Nūr verses 30–31. This meaning becomes increasingly relevant in the context of digital engagement and the exercise of privacy control to prevent the negative impacts of social media practices. Furthermore, the recommendation of marriage in verse 32 is positioned as a primary solution, while also addressing economic barriers arising from consumptive lifestyle standards. In synthesis, Islamic law provides a holistic framework of protection encompassing mindset, social ethics, and practical solutions in safeguarding human honor and dignity. Through this perspective, the Qur’an functions as a robust moral shield for individuals in preserving spiritual values amid the currents of globalization.
