This article is a form of library research that uncovers the moderate values from the Ulumul Qur’an materials as well as its teaching methods. Therefore, the method used is qualitative research with a descriptive approach, where the data were collected through literature studies or documents discussing this theme, both from books and from recent online articles discussing the Ulumul Qur’an and religious moderation, and directly observed the environment at FEBI IAIN Pontianak, so that the collected data can be verified and revealed with reliable results. The instilling of moderate values towards the students of FEBI IAIN Pontianak is largely derived from the Ulumul Qur’an materials taught by a lecturer, although in delivering the material, the main focus of achievement is the understanding of the materials that have been agreed in the semester Learning Plan (RPS). The materials include Jam‘ al-Qur’ān (collection of the Qur’an), Qirā’ah al-Qur’ān (reading of the Qur’an), Asbāb al-Nuzūl (causes of the revelation of the Qur’an), and materials about the interpreters of the Qur’an, their conditions, and interpretation methods.","PeriodicalId":53103,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Studi AlQuran","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135219456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among them, John Wansbrough’s provocative insights in his methodological approach stand out. Wansbrough’s historical and literary analysis challenges traditional views by proposing that the Quran is a product of cultural evolution and influence. This article delves into Wansbrough’s perspective, focusing on his work ‘The Quranic Studies: Sources and Methods of Scriptural Interpretation.’ This study reveals Wansbrough’s arguments about the possibility of Jewish-Christian traditions in the Quran, the role of cultural contexts, and the evolution of the Quranic text. Wansbrough’s methods, including historical scepticism and literary analysis, have triggered both support and criticism. Wansbrough suggests that sacred texts, such as the Quran, may consist of different layers and undergo changes and revisions over time, especially due to cultural, political, and social influences. Although some scholars view Wansbrough’s methods as too sceptical and controversial, others consider them to provide valuable insights into the history and development of sacred texts. Scholars such as Fazlur Rahman have criticized Wansbrough’s theories, defending traditional views. However, supporters argue that Wansbrough’s ideas expand the boundaries of Quranic studies. Ultimately, this article explores and demonstrates open and critical discussions within the realm of Islamic studies, acknowledging various perspectives to achieve a deeper understanding of the complex origins and interpretations of the Quran. This research uses a qualitative approach and literature analysis to understand John Wansbrough’s thinking. Open and critical discussions are necessary for Islamic studies to understand the various perspectives and methods in uncovering the meaning of the Quran and the history of Islam.","PeriodicalId":53103,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Studi AlQuran","volume":"278 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136037807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even though these words refer to the meaning of creation, there are different meanings and uses contained in these words. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach. The type of research used is library research. This research was conducted using data collection methods from the library, either in the form of books, journals, documents, magazines and so on. The data collection method in this study uses documentation. The analysis technique used is the semantic analysis approach developed by Toshihiko Izutsu. The purpose of this study is to reveal the meaning contained in the word khalaqa and reveal the world view of the Qur'an (weltanschauung) on that word. The process carried out in this study is to analyze the basic meaning of the word, then examine the relational meaning of the word khlaqa using syntagmatic and paradigmatic analysis, and then examine the use of the vocabulary of khalaq in the pre-Qur'anic, Qur'anic and post-Qur'anic periods by looking at the interpretations of the classical, medieval and modern periods. The results of the research show that the basic meaning of khalaqa in the Qur'an is to create. Semantically, the word khalaqa is closely related to other words in the Qur’an, such as the words Allah, al-arḍ and sama‘; al-insān; al-mawt and al-ḥayāt; azwaja, male and female, animals, jin, and kulla shay’in. The words that are synonymous with the word khalaqa in the Qur'an are ja‘ala, faṭara, bada‘a, shana‘a, and ṣawara. While the antonyms are the words ahlaka, dammara, amāta, azāla and afna. Second, the word khalaqa after analyzing its synchronic and diachronic meanings refers to creation in which Allah is the object.","PeriodicalId":53103,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Studi AlQuran","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136037636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Artikel ini membahas tentang salah satu pendekatan yang digunakan beberapa ulama kontemporer dalam memahami Al-Qur’an, salah satunya adalah Abdullah Saeed seorang guru besar bidang studi Islam di Australia, yang menggagas metode kontekstualisasi Al-Qur’an. Secara khusus penulis berusaha memaparkan aspek-aspek metodologis dari pandangan Abdullah Saeed dalam melakukan kontekstualisasi Al-Qur’an. Untuk dapat menemukan jawaban dari permasalahan tersebut, penulis berusaha megumpulkan data-data dari berbagai sumber, baik dari sumber primer yakni dari tulisan-tulisan Abdullah Saeed maupun dari sumber sekunder yakni tulisan-tulisan yang berkaitan dengan fokus utama. Guna mendapat kesimpulan, penulis berusaha menganalisis data-data yang telah terkumpul menggunakan teori studi tokoh dengan menganalisa lingkungan sekitar tokoh serta argumentasi-argumentasi yang dibangun. Penulis berkesimpulan bahwa penafsiran kontekstual yang digagas Abdullah Saeed merupakan metode interpretasi teks ayat Al-Quran yang dikaitakan dengan konteks kehidupan dan kondisi masyarakat guna menjawab berbagai persoalan yang dialami masyarakat kontemporer saat ini. Selain itu, dalam pemikirannya Abdullah Saeed memiliki keunggulan dari metode double movement yang digagas oleh Fazlur Rahman, yakni ia mampu memberi sistematika dan langkah-langkah operasional dalam melakukan kontektualisasi Al-Qur’an.","PeriodicalId":53103,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Studi AlQuran","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136254124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some interpreters and jurists say that beating a wife is permissible if she leaves her obligations as a wife (nushūz) on the condition that it is in the context of education and does not injure or cause injury. Some other interpreters argue that the meaning of ḍaraba is a metaphor, that is, it does not mean hitting. However, this problem does not just end because the understanding of the mufassir who interprets ḍaraba as an order to hit is clear in the language rules, namely literal meaning. Thus, the debate over the license to beat one's wife in Islam is still a polemic and Islam is still imaged as a religion that gives a license to beat one's wife. This image makes it difficult for Islam to harmonize with modern humanism and it becomes almost impossible for ethical values in Islam to be offered as part of the values of modern humanism. This qualitative research examines the literature related to the research focus and interviews religious experts, especially commentators, to solve research problems. Interpretation of the review of the word ḍaraba is carried out through text analysis using a spiritual hermeneutic approach as systematized by Abdul Hadi WM and strengthened by the understanding of religious experts through interviews. The research findings show that the spirit of Surah An-Nisā’ 34 is in accordance with the spirit of humanism, especially regarding emancipation and gender equality. But the meaning of ḍaraba needs to be resolved through spiritual hermeneutics. So, even though it has an ontological basis that is different from modern humanism, Islamic values can be in harmony with modern humanism through this approach.","PeriodicalId":53103,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Studi AlQuran","volume":"110 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136253149","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This gap gives rise to behaviors that seem anarchic, intolerant, and destructive. Therefore, to encourage a contextual, dynamic and tolerant interpretation of jihadist verses, deradicalization efforts are needed, and one of these efforts is the dissemination of religious literature that supports this spirit. Sufis are one of the groups that formulate interpretations of jihad verses with peaceful meanings. This research tries to raise Ibn ‘Ajībah's interpretation of jihad verses in his book Al-Baḥr Al-Madīd fī Tafsīr Al-Qur`ān Al-Majīd. The author reveals the essence and method of interpreting verses about jihad in Al-Baḥr Al-Madīd fī Tafsīr Al-Qur`ān Al-Majīd, as well as their significance for deradicalization efforts, which means for the understanding of religious texts in Indonesia today. Ibn ‘Ajībah's view of jihad can be summed up in two ways, namely the meaning of peaceful jihad and the meaning of armed jihad. In other words, Ibn ‘Ajībah's reading uses the irfān epistemology, based on the bayān epistemology. The significance of the verses of Jihad in Al-Baḥr Al-Madīd fī Tafsīr Al-Qur`ān Al-Majīd can be seen in terms of its method and content. From a methodological point of view, Ibn ‘Ajībah's interpretation is important because it offers an open, contextual model of meaning. In terms of content, Ibn ‘Ajībah's interpretation of jihad verses shows that jihad is not something revolutionary and radical, its meaning is very important to inform the public that jihad means more than just war and violence.","PeriodicalId":53103,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Studi AlQuran","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83034603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
