Qurrata: Quranic Research and Tafsir

KONSEP REGULASI EMOSI DALAM AL-QUR’AN: STUDI TAFSIR TEMATIK DAN INTEGRASINYA DENGAN PSIKOLOGI

Silvia Mariana — 2026-04-18

Emotion regulation has become a crucial issue in modern human life, particularly amid increasing psychological pressure and the imbalance between spiritual and emotional dimensions. This study aims to examine the concept of emotion regulation in the Qur’an through a thematic exegesis approach and to integrate it with perspectives from modern psychology. This research employs a qualitative method with a library research approach by analyzing Qur’anic verses related to emotions such as fear, sadness, anger, and happiness, as well as values of regulation including patience, trust in God, and remembrance. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis based on classical and contemporary tafsir sources alongside relevant psychological literature. The findings reveal four main contributions. First, the Qur’an presents cognitive emotion regulation through the transformation of individual perspectives, such as through trust in God and positive thinking. Second, it emphasizes attentional regulation through spiritual practices such as remembrance and prayer, which contribute to emotional calmness. Third, it highlights response regulation through controlling emotional expressions, including restraining anger and promoting forgiveness. Fourth, the Qur’an introduces a distinctive dimension of spiritual-based emotion regulation that positions the relationship with God as the central foundation of emotional management. The analysis demonstrates that these concepts align with modern psychological frameworks of emotion regulation, yet the Qur’an offers a more holistic approach by incorporating a transcendental dimension. This study concludes that the Qur’an functions not only as a normative source but also as a conceptual framework for developing an integrative and contextual model of emotion regulation.

THE QUR’AN AND ATTRIBUTION THEORY IN THE DISCOURSE ON ECOLOGICAL DISASTERS

Kiki Adnan Muzaki — 2026-04-20

This study aims to analyze how the Qur’an frames an ontological understanding of ecological disasters and its relation to tendencies of causal and responsibility attribution in human experience. This research employs a qualitative method based on library research, using a maud?‘? (thematic) tafs?r approach to Qur’anic verses related to disasters, destruction (fas?d), and human agency, and dialogues these findings with attribution theory in the tradition of Fritz Heider, particularly the concept of common-sense (naive) analysis of action. The findings indicate that the Qur’an positions ecological disasters as relational events arising from the interconnection between human actions and the natural order, and therefore they cannot be reduced to purely natural phenomena or individual culpability. This study further demonstrates that an ontological reading of the Qur’an constrains tendencies toward fatalism and the simplification of causal attribution in contemporary ecological disaster discourse.

WHEN WOMEN UNDERMINE WOMEN: DISMANTLING THE QUEEN BEE SYNDROME THROUGH THE LENS OF THE AL-QUR'AN

Noviyatul Badriyah — 2026-04-21

"Women are often their own worst enemies"—this expression is frequently used to describe the Queen Bee Syndrome phenomenon, in which successful women tend to belittle or hinder the progress of other women. This article aims to examine the Queen Bee Syndrome through the perspective of the Al-Qur'an, utilizing a thematic exegesis (maudhu'i) approach integrated with Ibn Khaldun’s sociology of religion theory. This study is a descriptive qualitative research based on library research. Data analysis was conducted using the thematic (maudhu'i) method on Quranic verses to collect, classify, and holistically interpret Quranic messages regarding power relations and interactions among women. The results identify three key terms: yaskhar (mockery), takhunu (betrayal), and yajzi (recompense). From these keywords, three verses related to the Queen Bee Syndrome were identified: QS. al-Hujur?t: 11, QS. al-Anf?l: 27, and QS. al-An‘?m: 160. These verses serve as a foundation to demonstrate that Queen Bee Syndrome is not merely a social and psychological issue, but also a matter of spiritual ethics. In short, these findings have several important social and cultural implications: fostering a more inclusive and supportive environment for women, increasing women's participation without discrimination from any party, and integrating Quranic concepts and their interpretations into the understanding of social phenomena.

DISTINGSI KAEDAH USHUL FIQH DAN USHUL TAFSIR SERTA IMPLEMENTASINYA TERHADAP TEKS AL-QUR’AN

Syarifudin Mustafa — 2026-04-20

This article examines the methodological distinction between Ushul al-Fiqh and Ushul al-Tafsir and its implications for interpreting Qur’anic texts. Although both disciplines engage with revelation, their differences in epistemological orientation, objects of study, analytical approaches, and scholarly outputs are often overlooked, resulting in methodological inconsistencies in Qur’anic exegesis and Islamic legal reasoning. This study aims to clarify the methodological boundaries of both disciplines and to formulate an appropriate integrative model for understanding Qur’anic legal verses. Using a qualitative library-based approach, this research analyzes classical works alongside contemporary studies published within the last five years. The findings indicate that applying Ushul al-Fiqh to non-legal verses may reduce the Qur’an’s moral and theological messages, while interpreting legal verses solely through Ushul al-Tafsir without juridical principles risks normative relativism. The novelty of this study lies in proposing a hierarchical integrative model in which Ushul al-Tafsir functions as the initial stage of meaning construction and Ushul al-Fiqh serves as the mechanism for determining legal consequences, offering an explicit and replicable methodological framework for contemporary Qur’anic and Islamic legal studies.

TEKSTUALITAS DAN KONTEKSTUALITAS DALAM PENAFSIRAN SERTA DAMPAK SOSIALNYA BAGI KEHIDUPAN KONTEMPORER

Muhammad Said — 2026-04-27

This article examines the debate between textual and contextual approaches in interpreting religious texts and their implications for contemporary social life, particularly within the digital public sphere. Departing from the phenomenon of circulating textual fragments detached from their original contexts, the study highlights how interpretive approaches contribute to the formation of moral legitimacy, discourse polarization, and the quality of social cohesion. The research employs a qualitative method based on a literature review with thematic analysis of works on exegesis, hermeneutics, and social studies from the past five years. The findings indicate that a dominant textual approach without contextual scrutiny tends to produce a narrowing of meaning, labeling practices, and social fragmentation, especially within digital media ecosystems. Conversely, a contextual approach without textual control risks loosening semantic boundaries and weakening normative certainty. The principal finding of this study is the emergence of a pattern of methodological moderation, namely a synthesis between textual discipline and consideration of historical context as well as socio-ethical impacts. This approach is shown to be more constructive in promoting tolerance, cross-group dialogue, and the strengthening of social cohesion. The article offers an analytical framework for assessing the social impacts of interpretation and encourages balanced interpretive literacy in educational and digital spaces.
