Fawatih Al-Suwar : Kajian Tentang Makna-Makna Pada Pembukaan Surah dalam Al-Quran
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research discusses fawâtih al-suwar, which is the opening of the surah in the Qur'an, which is an important issue in the study of interpretation. The purpose of this study is to analyze the meaning of the opening letters of the surah and their relevance in deepening the understanding of the Qur'an, especially in the context of the lives of Muslims today. This study uses a qualitative-descriptive approach based on library research, with the main data in the form of Qur'an texts and secondary references such as classical and modern literature. The results of the study show that the opening letters of the surah have a unique position in the Qur'an, both as a sign of divine greatness and a means to attract the attention of listeners. The interpretation of these letters is twofold: some scholars consider them to be divine secrets, while others try to interpret them symbolically as well as linguistically. This study recommends an integrative approach in understanding fawâtih al-suwar, combining traditional and contemporary methods to produce a more comprehensive understanding.
