Hermeneutika Terminologis: Studi Analisis Pemikiran Asy-Syahid Al-Busyaikhi Tentang Feminisme Al-Qur’an
This research discusses the discourse of gender and the Qur’an. The discourse on gender has been promoted by academics as a continuing effect of the normative interpretation of the Qur’an during the classical era, which seemingly positioned women at a lower level than men. One of the figures who emerged in response to the normative readings of the classical period is Asy-Syahid Al-Busyaikhi. This study aims to uncover the hermeneutical approach and feminist perspectives on the Qur’an proposed by Asy-Syahid Al-Busyaikhi. Through a holistic and structural reading of the sacred text, this study finds that Al-Busyaikhi successfully deconstructs the hierarchy of gender dominance without relying on western sociological frameworks. He demonstrates that the ontological construction of male and female relations is bound by the principles of istikhlāf (shared vicegerency) and takāmul (complementarity). This article concludes that Al-Busyaikhi's methodology offers a highly authentic emancipatory path for the effort to uphold gender justice within the Islamic scholarly tradition.
