Metode Tafsir Tematik Kontekstual Perspektif Abdullah Saeed

Abstract

The isolation of Muslims at the time was caused by the freezing of Islamic science. This is because some people consider ijtihad to be closed. In this contemporary century some Muslim academics tried to revive Islamic science, both in terms of methodology and the product of theory. One Islamic thinker trying to come up with a new methodology is Abdullah Saeed, a professor of Arabic and Islamic Studies who is active at the University of Melbourne, Australia. This study tries to explore Abdullah Saeed's thinking in the field of interpretation methodology. The results of the study are as follows: First, Contingency Hermeneutics is a method of interpretation that should take into account three insertions, namely 1). Pay attention and consider the meaning of the variety, then take the relevant meaning; 2).

Pay attention and consider the value of the hierarchy of the Quran to know the verses that can be re-interpreted (dhanni) and can not be re-interpreted (qath'i). Second, how contextual hermeneutics work as follows: 1). Define the theme; 2). Determine the value of the text hierarchy of Paragraph; 3). Exploring the Macro and Micro Contexts of the Seventh Century; 4). Analyzing Linguistics; 5). Collecting Parallel Texts of the Quran; 6). Contextualization at this time
