Abstract

Taghyir khalqillah (alteration of Allah’s creation) is one of the ways Satan misleads people. This was revealed by Allah subhanahu wa ta‘ala in the Qur’an, Surah al-Nisa’, verse 119. The act of taghyir khalqillah is explicitly prohibited but the interpretation of Muslim jurist on its message vary. Therefore, this article will discuss the meaning of taghyir khalqillah in the twelve mufassirin perspectives, carefully chosen from a variety of backgrounds. The study employs qualitative research design in achieving its objectives. There are twenty-six jurists from salaf and khalaf who attempted to interpret the meaning of taghyir khalqillah in a total of fourteen interpretations. The concept of taghyir khalqillah is divided into five principles, namely (i) physical and metaphysical alteration, (ii) temporary and permanent alteration, (iii) purpose of the alteration was made, (iv) maslahah of alteration and (v) results of the physical alteration.
