Konsep Nafkah dalam Tafsîr Asy-Sya’rawî: Studi Tafsir Tematik Tokoh dan Relevansinya Terhadap Kehidupan Keluarga Kontemporer

This study examines the concept of nafāqah (living) in the
interpretation of Sheikh Muhammad Mutawalli Asy-Sya’rawi through
the thematic interpretation approach of figures (tafsīr maudhu‘ī alshakhṣī).
This study focuses on the verses of the Qur’an related to
financial responsibility in the family, especially QS. An-Nisa’ : 34 and
QS. At-Talaq : 6-7. Using qualitative library research methods, data
were collected from the book Tafsir Khawatir Ash-Sya’rawi Haul Al Qur’an
Al-Karim and analyzed through thematic content analysis. The
results of the study show that Asy-Sya’rawi interprets living not only
as a legal obligation but as a comprehensive responsibility that includes
social, moral, and spiritual dimensions. The concept of living is closely
related to the concept of qiwāmah, which emphasizes the principles of
justice, protection, and proportionality according to the husband’s
financial capabilities. Furthermore, Asy-Sya'rawi's interpretation
demonstrates flexibility and contextual relevance, making it applicable
to contemporary family challenges, including economic inequality and
post-divorce responsibilities. This research contributes to enriching
contemporary Qur'anic studies by presenting a contextual and
responsive interpretation of livelihood to social issues.
