At the same time, users can feel and internalise (tadabbur) with the Qur’an recitation.

The depth focus of mufassirun on linguistic sciences creates the pattern and nature of Qur'anic discourse in the ninth century. However, it was not only mufassirun who appeared to direct their focus on lexical explanation in their tafsir, the massive production of Qur'anic works that concentrate on literary analysis indicates clearly the nature and tenor of Qur'anic discourse within this period. This includes the works of ahl al-hadith of the early century. This study aims to (1) explore ahl al-hadith methodology in Qur'anic discourse, particularly of Ahmad ibn Hanbal and al-Bukhari,(2) extract their idiosyncratic approaches and (3) elucidate their personal style on certain issues regarding the Qur'an. The study is qualitative in nature in which the researcher employed both critical and analytical methods. The study in its finding asserts that Ahmad and al-Bukhari provide a different explanation of the Qur'anic verses from that of the mufassirun and sira's authors. For instance, in the interpretation of 94:1, Ahmad ibn Hanbal and al-Bukhari clearly demonstrates his arrival at a different interpretation and perspective.

The Quran’s language is of great height and beauty, which is one of its many benefits. The manner of the Quranic language enthralled anyone who heard it among the Arabs. The employment of metaphors or amthal is one of the ways the Quran is conveyed. The Quran’s translation into other languages has become necessary in order to communicate the meaning of the Quran to individuals who do not speak Arabic. The Quran translation presents its own set of hurdles and difficulties (Al-Nadawi, 1417H). Amthal musarrahah must be read in light of the verse’s context, and this must be considered when translating the Quran. As a result, the goal of this research is to examine Malay scholars’ translations of the amthal verses and then offer translation recommendations based on the mufassirin’s interpretation. The study is a qualitative research that employs content analysis. In the translation of the Quran into Malay, the research made Tafsir Pimpinan al-Rahman, Terjemahan al-Quran Yayasan Restu, and Mahmud Yunus’ Tafsir al-Quran as references. Only a few Quranic metaphors were chosen as part of the research sample. The study discovered that all three Quranic translations chose to render metaphorical verses in literal form without providing a more indepth explanation of the metaphorical verses’ context. As a result of, it is determined that there is a need to improve the translation of these metaphorical verses in order to transmit a more comprehensive understanding to the target audience.

The purpose of this paper is to figure out the components and elements for the model thus to design and develop a prototype model of KKQ meaning-based Tarannum mobile app. This study employed document analysis whereby research on ten existing Tarannum mobile apps in Google Play Store market to find out those components and elements. From document analysis, matrix analysis is used to analyse what are the components and elements that have in the existing Tarannum mobile apps to be embedded into the prototype model. The findings were analysed in thematic analysis whereby this paper explains each of the components and elements into themes. The finding shows that the main elements of the model are (1) Tarannum types which consist of seven types of Tarannum (i.e Bayyati, Nahawand, Rast, Hijaz, Soba, Sikah and Jiharkah), (2) Tarannum variation (Harakat), (3) Surah; with the audio or text or both of the surah (4) Tausyikh; that have the audio or text or both of tausyikh, (5) additional features (Tarannum practice, Adzan, Video of Tarannum), and (6) multimedia elements (text, audio, graphics, and video).

This study analyses the factors that stimulate the inception of dalail literature in early Islam. Indeed, the lack of early textual sources on dalail literature obscures the debate considerably and have led to assertions that the nature and conventions of dalail arise from internal and external influences. This study investigates meticulously the factors that could be considered as reasons that lead to the emergence of dalail literature. It also scrutinizes possible reasons that trigger the development of this literature in its socio-religious contexts. This research is qualitative in nature in which the researcher will employ both descriptive and source-critical approaches. The present study in its findings argues that there are clear and established references in Hadith literature which suggest strongly that the dalail arose spontaneously out of a Muslim context. In particular, the early Muslim scholars were fired by a deep spiritual need to acquire details about their beloved prophet. It also asserts that the external challenges from non-Muslims in their interreligious dialogue contribute significantly to the development of systematic arguments in the later work of dalail.

This paper presents a study aimed at developing a realistic model for understanding users' intention to use Smart Learning Application (SLA). SLA provides users with an intelligent learning platform that enables effective learning management, user-centered networking of intelligent devices, and rapid learning from any location. However, despite the advantages of SLA, its use is not widely accepted. The study used a quantitative approach, and data was collected from 229 respondents using a survey. SmartPLS (v. 3.2.8) was used to examine the relationships between the variables in the proposed model. The study developed a comprehensive model based on DOI that addressed users' intention to use SLA. The findings indicated that the direct influence of Relative Advantage, Compatibility, and Complexity on users' intention to use Tarannum Smart Learning Application (TSLA) was not significant, and hypotheses H1, H2, and H3 were not supported. However, hypothesis H4, which postulated a significant relationship between Observability and Intention to Use, was supported. The proposed model can be used as a basis for improving the learning of various types of tarannum by teachers teaching the holy Quran. The study can be expanded to other Smart Learning Applications to validate the findings and identify more opportunities. TSLA, by design, promotes human-oriented networking of smart devices and applications, making it a suitable tool for encouraging active users. Longitudinal data may be necessary to investigate the variables that impact people's acceptance level of TSLA. The technical implementation of TSLA from a policy maker's viewpoint can beexplored in future studies.

Persistent disputation from non-Muslim communities arguing against the veracity of Muḥammad’s prophethood has undoubtedly served to contribute to the steady growth of Dalāʾil literature at the formative period of Islam. Besides intensifying Dalāʾil works with evidentiary miracles to prove the authenticity of Muhammad’s prophethood, one of the popular styles of argument employed by the scholars of Islam is adducing Qurʾānic and Biblical verses and its hermeneutic to substantiate the prophethood of Muhammad. In the ninth century, Ibn Qutayba composed his Dalāʾil Nubuwwa with a unique approach in which he utilised the content of the Qurʾān to explore the meaning of the Bible. This study seeks to explore the novelty of his approach in utilising the Qurʾān to elucidate Biblical passages. The study employs a descriptive, comparative and critical approach, in which it analyses and extracts the author’s original approach in explaining the legitimacy of Muḥammad’s prophethood. The study in its finding affirms that Ibn Qutayba invented an innovative approach, exploring the meaning of scripture previously understood exclusively through Judaeo-Christian theological methodology alone. This is where the novelty of his approach is distinguished.

The COVID-19 pandemic that struck the world has changed the landscape of human life post-21st century. The existence of such epidemic diseases has also been recorded in the world history of human civilization. Interestingly, the Quran, which was revealed fifteen centuries ago, also touches on the issue of pandemic or epidemic diseases that occurred to the previous generations and provides a reminder for the future generations. The Quran explains that epidemic diseases are one of the forms of worldly azab or punishment sent by Allah as a reminder of the damage and tyranny committed by human beings. The interpretation of epidemic diseases in the Quran has been parsed by a famous exegesis scholar, Imam al-Razi in his magnum opus, The Exegesis of Mafatih al-Ghayb. His masterpiece has brought a new dimension in understanding epidemic diseases through the combination of naqli and aqli approaches. Nonetheless, the collection of epidemic verses in The Exegesis of Mafatih al-Ghayb has been less frequently discussed. Therefore, this paper presents a study that identified and analyzed the verses related to epidemic diseases based on the views of Imam al-Razi. This study employed the qualitative method based on the text analysis approach using the Quran and The Exegesis of Mafatih al-Ghayb. This study found that the words rijz, rijs, and azab are synonymous with epidemics. These three words have certain characteristics that lead to the spread of the epidemic as stated by Imam al-Razi. Additionally, there are several holistic approaches stated by al-Razi in understanding epidemics and how to avoid them at present time and in the future. This approach needs to be understood by every layer of the society in order for the message of the Quran on epidemic diseases to be understood well and to curb the spread of epidemics.

With the expansion of Muslim territory in the ninth century, non-Muslim communities' reactions to the denials of the prophethood of Muhammad created an impact on the development of Islamic prophetology. Vigorous refutations from non-Muslim community, specifically the Jews, Christians and Brahmins urged Muslims to develop a solid mechanism in defence of the status of their beloved Prophet. One of the works that has been recognized as an apparatus to defend the Prophet Muhammad veracity is al-Din wa al-Dawla composed by Ibn Rabban, a physician of the Caliph's court. This study analyses the novelty of his approaches in exploring Sira Nabawiyya and defending the prophethood of Muhammad. The study employed a descriptive, comparative and critical approach where it analyses and extracts the author original approach in explaining the legitimacy of Muhammad's prophethood and enlightening the Prophet's biography. The study argues that most of Ibn Rabban arguments in this work are actually developed from the foundations of Biblical scripture. His style of interpreting Biblical passages indicates a possible dependence on Ibn al-Layth's letter. However, the way in which he presents Quranic references seems not to be in accordance with Ibn al-Layth's perspective. This is where the novelty of his approach is distinguished. As a result, the study also affirms that Ibn Rabban imposes his own standards of selection and interpretation of Quranic verses when he applies it as reference to the Prophet's life.

Genealogy plays a crucial role in historiography. An account of genealogy serves as an instrument to legalize kinship in the Arab tribal world. One of the most important aspects in understanding the history of Prophet Muḥammad’s life (the Sīra Nabawiyya) is his genealogy. It is not an exaggeration to say that almost all the biographies of Muḥammad commence their discussion by introducing his lineage, including Ibn Sa’d, one of the prominent figures in Islamic historiography. The present study seeks to explore Ibn Saʿd’s hermeneutical response to and understanding of Qur’ānic reference to the Prophet’s genealogy. It will also analyse for what specific reasons these understandings were developed in its socio-religious contexts. The study is qualitative in nature and is one in which the researcher will employ both descriptive and source-critical approaches. The study in its findings argues for the appropriateness of using 26:219 as reference to the Prophet’s genealogy. Its analysis proposes that it was the influence of his master that leads Ibn Sa’d to invent the connection between the Prophet’s genealogy and the Qur’ān. Furthermore, his approach to ‘Qur’ānise’ the nature of the narrative appears to be another reason that influence Ibn Saʿd to create such connection.

Recent studies on the Sirah are usually focusing on the reliability of its sources by applying critical analysis of its material. There is obviously a lack of study on its hagiographic elements and its patterns. This is precisely where the lacuna occurs in which the present study aims to fill by clarification and analysis. It has been confirmed by the preliminary study of the present researcher that there is an obvious hagiographical element in the narrative of Battle of Uhud. Therefore, this study aims (1) to explore the nature and element of hagiography by focusing on the hadith of al-Maghazi in the Battle of Uhud, (2) and identify these elements based on the narrative delivered in the early Sirah literature. The study is qualitative in nature in which the researcher employed critical textual analysis as a main method of study. The study in its finding argues that there is some addition and deduction in the storyline conveyed by the early Sirah compilers. Secondly, there is difference facts among the biographer of Sirah about particular issue in the Battle of Uhud. Thirdly, the study traced elements that implied that particular author apparently prone to Shi’ite doctrine.

Sīrah Nabawiyyah has been the most widely used name for the traditional account of life and background of Prophet Muḥammad (PBUH). In the period of ninth century, Islamic literatures and biographies of the Prophet Muḥammad (PBUH) were actively developed as a reflection on the needs of Muslim community. Among the famous of the extant texts composed in the medieval Islamic genre is Sīrah Nabawiyyah by Ibn Hishām (d. 218/833 or 213/828) who rests mainly on his selection from the work of Ibn Isḥāq, and Kitāb al-Ṭabaqāt al-Kubrā by Ibn Saʿd (d.230/845) who compiled it from the works of his predecessors, specially al-Wāqidī and al-Kalbī. There are some studies conducted by Muslim and western scholars on the background of Ibn Hishām and Ibn Saʿd‘s works, however, the differences in the approach of writing Sīrah Nabawiyyah between them are hardly found. Thus, the present study aims to explore the style or pattern of historical approach applied by these two scholars on the biography of the Prophet Muḥammad (PBUH). The study is qualitative in nature, in which the researcher employed descriptive, comparative and source-critical approaches where it analyses and extract the approach used by the authors in writing Sīrah Nabawiyyah. The study in its finding infers that there are two opposing patterns of historical approach employed by Ibn Hishām and Ibn Saʿd in writing Sīrah Nabawiyyah.
