Reinterpretasi AsbÄb Al-NuzÅ«l bagi Penafsiran Alquran
Get PDFAsbÄb al-nuzÅ«l are socio-historical events surrounding the revelation of the Qur’an and they are important aspects to understand the meaning of the Qur’an. Unfortunately, in many tafsir that written either in classical or modern exegesis many exegetes seem to ignore the important messages of these socio-historical aspects of the Qur’an. Many exegetes only focus on the texts and produce the textual-doctrinal understanding of the Qur’an that detached from its context. This article based on the claim of universality of the messages of the Qur’an to all human beings across time and space. This article employs interpretative-analysis method to analyze the use of AsbÄb al-nuzÅ«l in kitab tafsir – classic and modern - and to seek a new understanding in both: the theory a well as the use of AsbÄb al-nuzÅ«l for Qur’anic interpretation. This article shows that the study of AsbÄb al-nuzÅ«l should be concerned not only with the specific events of the revelations but also with the spirit of the time when the events occurred in order to understand the basic meaning intended by the texts revealed in various occasions. Therefore, the meaning of the Qur'an should be derived not only from the general meaning of the texts but also from the contexts of the revelations (al-ibrat bi umum al-lafzh ma’a mura’at khusus al-sabab). Interpreting the Qur’an by paying attention to socio-historical approach will lead us to a more dynamic and dialogical interpretation with the cultural contexts without ignoring the ethical principles of the Qur’an

Crystallization of The Quran: An Analysis of John Wansbrough’s Theory
Get PDFIn the early nineteenth century, modern scholars began to explore materials of Quranic studies within the framework of a historical-critical method. Novel arguments were presented in challenging the traditional account of the formation of the Quran with a various range of theory. It seems that the most radical assessment was demonstrated by John Wansbrough in his exceptional works, Quranic Studies: Sources and Methods of Scriptural. The literary analysis employed by John Wansbrough in his study on the Quran lead to a novel historic inference. This article aims to explore the theory of late crystallization of the Quran as proposed by John Wansbrough. This study is the qualitative research in which the researcher uses the study of the comparative text analysis. The resulting study asserts that Wansbrough’s theory is a new discovery which has given the new impact and the new path in the Quranic studies. His conclusion is not accepted by all scholars. Some scholars regarded Wansbrough’s evidence that he used as an argument is not absolutely convincing
Kontroversi Hadis sebagai Sumber Hukum Islam
Get PDFThe position of hadith as the source of Islamic law has brought about a problematic long debate between the denial and the defender of hadith. The problemes surrounding the hadith's position concerns the hadith in the aḥad category which is contrasted with the mutawtir category. This study aims to analyze the position of hadith as a source of Islamic law. This researcÄh uses qualitative research method through literature study by using a content analysis methode to obtain a conclusion. The discussion of this study presents the arguments surrounding hadith as the source of Islamic law among its denials and defenders. The denial of the hadith takes the ijtihÄd rather than positioning the aḥad hadith as the source of Islamic law. Thus, the defenders of hadith from the experts of hadith still insist on asserting hadith as the source of Islamic law even though it is a category of aḥad by developing a systematic methode of hadith research. This study concludes that the problemes surrounding the position of hadith as a source of Islamic law have given rise to positive dynamics for the development of the methodology of hadith research
