Sulaiman Bin Ismail ;Lubna Abd Rahman ;Nurhasma Bt. Muhamad Saad ;Muhammad Marwan IsmailWahida Bt.MansorThis study addresses the concept of “Barakah” as mentioned in the Quran (7:96) for the purpose of analyzing discussions on the etymology of the word among Arab scholars, as well as looking at their differences in views regarding its meanings, before comparing them with its meanings in Malay language as translated by the scholars. As a matter of fact, the concept of “Barakah” and its meaning have been discussed recently by countless individuals from both academic and administrative staffs at the Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM) in an attempt to interpret its concept as a main foundation to achieve the university’s aspirations of 2035. It is hoped that by 2035 the university will be able to produce highly educated students whose characters are in line with the “Barakah” concept. However, to find the meaning of “Barakah” precisely as comply with its meaning in the Quran requires exploring and looking at its interpretations addressed by Arab scholars especially the Arab Linguists to understand the most correct meaning of the word in its literal and practical ways. Therefore, this study aims to give a clear picture to the readers in understanding the meanings of “Barakah” through a comprehensive analysis that refers to the most important sources and references in Arabic language. The study also suggested some alternatives for the translation of its meanings in Malay language and explained the best solutions to cope with the differences in opinions given by Arab and Malay scholars regarding its meaning. This is a qualitative study using descriptive approach in outlining the discussions of the scholars, and in analysing the data by adopting critical comparative method for fair consideration and accuracy purposes. Hopefully, this study will pave the way for the readers to understand the meaning of the word “Barakah” in Arabic and Malay languages and perceive its importance to work according to its meaning and subsequently helping the university to achieve its vision of 2035.
