Abstract

Faidh al-Rahman fi Tarjamah Tafsir Kalam Malik al-Dayyan by KH. Sholeh Darat is one of the significant works in the tradition of Nusantara Qur’anic exegesis that emerged during the Dutch colonial period. This tafsir serves not only as a means of understanding the Qur’an but also as a medium for Islamic preaching and religious education for Javanese society through the use of the Javanese language written in Pegon script. This study aims to analyze the development of KH. Sholeh Darat’s exegetical thought in Faidh al-Rahman and to explain its contribution to the development of Nusantara tafsir. The research employs a library research method with historical and descriptive-analytical approaches. Primary data were obtained from Faidh al-Rahman fi Tarjamah Tafsir Kalam Malik al-Dayyan, while secondary data were collected from scholarly journals, books, and relevant studies. The findings reveal that KH. Sholeh Darat’s exegetical thought developed through five main orientations: vernacularization of Qur’anic understanding through Javanese Pegon, integration of Islamic law and Sufism, contextualization of Qur’anic teachings, cultural resistance to colonialism, and the use of tafsir as a medium of transformative da‘wah. This study concludes that Faidh al-Rahman presents a communicative, contextual, and adaptive model of interpretation that significantly contributed to the development of the Nusantara tafsir tradition.
