Hashim, M.M.Hashim2024-05-302024-05-3020191675-5936http://uijournal.usim.edu.my/index.php/uij/article/view/132https://oarep.usim.edu.my/handle/123456789/16170Tafsir Sufi al-Isyari is the commentary related to the implied symbol behind the utterance of the Quran and not the explicit meanings. The purpose of this research is to define Tafsir Sufi al-Isyari and compare it with Tafsir Batiniah, Tafsir Sufi of Philosophy, and Tafsir Scientific Ishari. The researcher used comparison and critic methods to conduct this research. As a result, the opinion of Sufism experts about Tafsir Sufi al-Isyari is different with the exegesis of the Quran by Batiniah’s group. This is because, Batiniah’s group did not acknowledge outwardly of the Quran but they only acknowledge inwardly. Hence, they interpret the Quran internally by their bad intentions. However, Sufism expert recognize the outwardly of the Quran as they recognize the internal of the Quran. Moreover, this research also found that Tafsir Sufi of Philosophy is built by premise of philosophy that contain in the mind of Sufi at the early stage, then the Quranic verses is stated after that. As for Tafsir Sufi al-Isyari is not related to premise of philosophy, but it is related to the spiritual training which are performed by Sufi members. Besides that, Tafsir Scientific al-Isyari is the interpretation that contain signals related to the nature that can be found in the al-Quran. It is also the interpretation by symbol of modern knowledge and new discoveries. In contrast with Tafsir Sufi al-Isyari, it is the interpretation by hidden symbol that comes from the heart of righteousness, kindness and knowledge during recitation of the Quran.Article536527
