Abstract

Although Al-Qur’an dan Tafsirnya, published by the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia, has been widely used as a national reference, academic studies on its interpretative methods and sources remain limited. This study examines the application of the tahlili method and the use of ma’tsur-ra’yi sources based on Abu Hayy al-Farmawi’s theory of tafsir methodology. Employing a qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical method, this research utilizes library-based data collection. The data were obtained from Al-Qur’an dan Tafsirnya, al-Farmawi’s methodological framework, and relevant literature, and were analyzed through inventory, classification, and content analysis techniques. The findings indicate that the Kemenag tafsir is systematically structured through a surah introduction, thematic grouping of verses, lexical explanations, munasabah, asbab al-nuzul, and concluding remarks. This structure confirms the implementation of the tahlili method and does not exhibit characteristics of the mawḍu’i method as formulated by al-Farmawi. The study also reveals that this tafsir proportionally integrates ma’tsur and ra’yi sources while reflecting two dominant interpretative orientations: adab ijtima’i and ‘ilmi. The research concludes that the Kemenag tafsir represents an analytical exegetical model that combines textual and modern rational approaches. These findings contribute to the development of tafsir methodology studies in the Indonesian-Malay world and provide a basis for evaluating institutional government-sponsored tafsir. This study, however, is limited by its lack of analysis on public reception, indicating the need for further empirical research.
