Towards a New Paradigm in Quranic Exegesis: Exploring the Evolution and Practice of Munasabah in the Context of Posthumanism

Abstract

The article explores the concept of "Munasabah Al-Quran" as a methodology for studying the Quran in Indonesia, stressing the
importance of exploring thematic connections within Islam's holiest book while situating it within Indonesia's unique cultural,
social, and historical landscape. This approach seeks to cultivate a deeper understanding of the Quran's teachings and their
relevance to the daily lives of Indonesian Muslims. Through the integration of conventional hermeneutics with modern methods,
the aim is to link the sacred scripture with the specific circumstances of the community. Collaboration among scholars, practitioners,
and researchers is paramount in promoting and disseminating these ideas through digital platforms and educational initiatives.
The goal of the study is the enrichment of Islamic knowledge in Indonesia and the promotion of a more profound, contextually
relevant interpretation of the faith. As understanding of the Quran evolves from its classical foundations to its modern impact in
Indonesia, scholars agree that contextualization can enhance understanding as long as it preserves the integrity and authority of
the text. Munasabah Al-Quran holds great potential to address contemporary religious and societal challenges, but requires
careful, thorough examination to ensure its success.
