Abstract

The Quran covers every inch of human needs in the aspect of this worldly life and the hereafter. In order to practice the Quranic teachings, Muslims have to understand the meanings of each verse of the Quran. Allah has remarkably used the element of plants in His revelations which describes the importance of the connection between humans and nature. Many types of plants have been mentioned in the Quran in various situations. The purpose of the study is to identify the plant terms in the Quran and analyse the themes related to the Quranic plant. The document analysis method is applied by collecting the verses that mention the plant-related terms and then, three plant themes were created which are plants mentioned as parables in the Quran, plants associated with the stories of prophets and the past events, and plants associated with the bounties of Allah. The selected verses from the plant categories are analysed based on the interpretations of Tafsir al-Azhar by Hamka and Tafsir al-Misbah by M. Quraish Shihab. The results suggest that the three themes of the plant are intended to make people understand better about the messages of the Quran, give moral lessons and educate the mankind to be grateful for all the blessings that Allah has bestowed. In conclusion, the mentioning of plants in the Quran is to call for mankind to know Allah, worship Him as the only God and glorify the greatness of Him.
