KRITIK SALIM AL-JAbI ATAS HERMENEUTIKA MUHAMMAD SYAHRUR

Abstract

Criticism in interpretation studies shows a new phase of the interpretation of the Qur’an in contemporary academic studies of the Qur’an. Muhammad Syahrur is a fgure who became the object of criticism for some of his renewed ideas in contemporary studies of the Qur’an which are packaged in hermeneutics. Mahir al-Munanjad passed his book al-iskâ liyat Qirâ ah and Salim al-Jabi, al-Qirâ ‘at al-Mu’â shirat. This article focuses on Al-Jabi thinking with analysis on critical points. Al-Jabi made anBacademic criticism of Syahrur’s study, especially in the pattern of the approach used by Syahrur. Al-Jabi offers textual-contextual criticisms of the Shahrur approach patterned on language and thematic-historical analysis, which are often not in the context of the verses of the Qur’an.

Rethinking of contemporary Islamic law methodology: Critical study of Muhammad Shahrūr’s thinking on Islamic law sources

“…What is meant by the term al-Kitāb in the view of Shaḥrūr is the collection of all objects of revelation that Allah delivered to Muhammad PBUH, which includes the textual Shaḥrūr still uses the term al-Qurān for the meaning of al-Kitāb. This can lead to the perception that Shaḥrūr is inconsistent in using the term al-Kitāb(Shaḥrūr 2000).And in understanding the concepts in the al-Qurān, it seems that Shaḥrūr prioritises understanding etymology and pays less attention to how the concept is used in the sunnah and tafsīr as opined by Muslim scholars, even though the etymological understanding is often biased(Wathani 2018).According to ulama, al-Kitāb is another name for al-Qurān (al-Suyūṭī 1979& Shihab 2000.Al-Kitāb was revealed to Muhammad PBUH in his capacity as Prophet and Messenger at the same time. Al-Kitāb has a composition in accordance with the prophetic and apostolic position.…”
