INTERPRETATION BETWEEN CONCEPT, TYPES, AND SUFI APPLICATION: A DOCTRINAL STUDY

Abstract

Praise be to God, and prayers and peace be upon the Messenger of God. Now then...

This topic talks about [interpretation between concept, types, and Sufi application: a doctrinal study]. The importance of this topic and the reasons for choosing it lie in the fact that it addresses the issue of interpretation, as it is an essential tool for understanding legal texts and preserving Islamic law from stagnation, while maintaining its ability to keep pace with developments. Despite its importance in expanding the horizon of meanings, it may turn into a tool that raises controversy or contributes to distorting texts. The problem with this research is that in the event of ignorance or corruption of intentions and objectives, interpretation becomes a means of disrupting the legal text, stripping it of its sanctity from hearts, or distorting its meaning and intent, with the aim of serving something other than what the text was intended for. The research relied on two approaches: descriptive analytical and inductive. This research came in an introduction and three topics. In the first topic, I talked about: defining interpretation and its relationship to interpretation. In the second, I talked about: types of interpretation. The third section specialized in talking about: an applied study of interpretation among Sufis. Among the most prominent results: The main reason for the corruption of interpretation among Sufis lies in their corrupt interpretations as a result of their delving into what the human mind has no room to comprehend.
