Menelisik Metodologi Tafsir Kontemporer:: Studi atas Safīnah Kallā Saya’lamūn fī Tafsīri Shaikhinā Maimūn karya Ismail Al-Ascholīy
No full textThis study focuses on the methodology employed by Ismail Al-Ascholiy in his interpretation of Safīnah Kalla Sayaʾlamūn fī Tafsīr Shaikhinā Maimūn. As a tafsir text that emerges from KH Maimun Zubair’s interpretive transcripts, this work offers a new nuance and appears somewhat unfamiliar within the spectrum of Indonesian tafsir. Hence, it serves as an appealing locus for research on Indonesian tafsir, given the absence of a comprehensive methodological study on this particular tafsir text. To examine the methodology of Safīnah Kalla Sayaʾlamūn fī Tafsīr Shaikhinā Maimūn, this research draws upon Islah Gusmian’s theoretical framework of tafsir book methodology and employs a qualitative approach in the form of content analysis. The findings indicate that Safīnah is presented thematically. In clarifying its verses, the tafsir tends to explain them globally using a popular writing style, which does not fulfill formal academic standards. This is because it was neither intended for academic purposes nor written under the auspices of any institutional affiliation. Judging by its method, this tafsir adopts a contextual approach by incorporating historical elements and reason, thereby producing a distinctly social nuance in its interpretation
IDENTITAS TAFSIR MODERN PESANTREN: INTERPRETASI KH MAIMOEN ZUBAIR (1928 M-2019 M) DALAM TAFSIR SAFINAH KALLA SAYA’LAMUN
No full textThis research analyzes the interpretation of KH Maimoen Zubair in the book Tafsīr Safīnah Kalla Saya'lamūn. This book is a transcript of Mbah Moen's recitation of Jalain Tafsir which was held at PP Al Anwar Sarang, Rembang. Mbah Moen is an Islamic boarding school kyai and scholar who is known for his dynamic thoughts and responsiveness to current developments. This research aims to examine how Mbah Moen combines elements of modernity in his interpretation so that he can answer contemporary issues. The research methodology used is qualitative analysis with a descriptive-analytical approach to Mbah Moen's interpretive texts. This research found that in interpreting the Al-Qur'an, Mbah Moen did not only rely on literal interpretation but also provided argumentative explanations based on current social and cultural realities. This shows that Mbah Moen's interpretation is adaptive to the conditions of the times. Apart from that, this interpretive model can answer the challenges faced by the people. This research also identified that Mbah Moen's interpretation is closely related to social nuances due to several factors, namely religious social realities, modern science and technology, and audience factors. This research contributes to the study of Indonesian tafsir, especially regarding modern tafsir in the Indonesian context, and it is hoped that it can become the basis for further research on the contribution of ulama in responding to the challenges of the times through interpreting the Al-Qur'a
RITUALISASI QUR’ANI DALAM TRADISI LOKAL: Transformasi Ruwatan Santri di Desa Kedungasri, Banyuwangi, dalam Perspektif Tindakan Sosial Weberian
No full textThis study examines the process of Qur’anic ritualization within Javanese local tradition by exploring the practice of ruwatan santri in Kedungasri Village, Banyuwangi. This ritual represents a transformation of the classical ruwatan—rooted in wayang narratives and mystical incantations—into a Qur’an-centered practice, while still retaining its Javanese cosmological framework. Employing the living Qur’an approach and Max Weber’s theory of social action, this research analyzes the community’s motivations in performing ruwatan santri, which are classified into traditional, affective, instrumental-rational, and value-rational actions. The findings reveal that ruwatan santri is perceived as: (1) an act of preserving cultural heritage; (2) a means of seeking divine blessing and inner peace; and (3) a religious instrument to ward off misfortune. In this context, the Qur’an is positioned not merely as a normative text, but as a living spiritual entity embedded in socio-cultural practices. This study highlights that Islamization at the local level unfolds through a dialogical and integrative process between sacred text and tradition, producing a distinctive form of Islamic expression. Its scholarly novelty lies in integrating Weberian social theory with living Qur’an studies in analyzing Islamic rituals within non-Arab Muslim societies. Penelitian ini mengkaji proses ritualisasi al-Qur’an dalam tradisi lokal Jawa dengan menelaah praktik ruwatan santri di Desa Kedungasri, Banyuwangi. Tradisi ini merupakan transformasi dari ritual ruwatan yang berakar pada narasi pewayangan dan mantera mistik menjadi praktik religius berbasis bacaan al-Qur’an, tanpa meninggalkan kerangka kosmologi Jawa. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan living Qur’an dan teori tindakan sosial Max Weber, penelitian ini menganalisis motivasi masyarakat dalam melaksanakan ruwatan santri, yang diklasifikasikan ke dalam tindakan tradisional, afektif, rasional-instrumental, dan rasional-nilai. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ruwatan santri dipahami sebagai: (1) bentuk pelestarian budaya warisan; (2) upaya pencarian keberkahan dan ketenangan batin; serta (3) instrumen religius untuk menolak bala. Dalam konteks ini, al-Qur’an diposisikan bukan sekadar teks normatif, melainkan entitas spiritual yang hidup dalam praktik sosial budaya masyarakat. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa Islamisasi di tingkat lokal berlangsung melalui proses integratif yang dialogis antara teks suci dan tradisi, sehingga menghadirkan bentuk ekspresi keislaman yang khas. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada integrasi analisis Weberian dengan studi living Qur’an dalam membaca dinamika ritual Islam di masyarakat non-Arab
QUR'ANIC INTERPRETATION IN PESANTREN: MECHANISMS AND AUTHORITY OF K.H. MAIMOEN ZUBAIR
No full textThis study aims to analyze the mechanisms and authority underlying K.H. Maimun Zubair's interpretations as reflected in Tafsir SafÄ«nah KallÄ Saya'lamÅ«n, a work documented by his student, Ismail Al-AscholÄ«y. Mbah Moen's interpretations are often perceived as deeply intertwined with contextual nuances, yet the factors influencing these interpretations and the processes involved in their formulation remain insufficiently examined. This research seeks to bridge this gap by uncovering the intricate processes behind his interpretative approach, particularly concerning contemporary themes. Employing qualitative methods with a literature-based analysis, the study reveals that multifaceted dimensions, including historical and psychological contexts shape Mbah Moen's interpretations. His engagement with a conducive intellectual environment fosters a contextual interpretative framework that aligns with modern phenomena. Furthermore, his interpretations are deeply rooted in the pesantren tradition, which significantly informs his intellectual orientation. Within this framework, the authority of the Qur'an, historical narratives, and classical exegetical works remains pivotal. Nonetheless, Mbah Moen adeptly integrates modern perspectives into his interpretations, demonstrating a capacity to contextualize Qur'anic texts in ways that transcend conventional exegetical paradigms
