Abstract
Farid Esack dan Asghar Ali Engineer adalah dua tokoh yang mengagas pembebasan. Dari pembebasan inilah mereka banyak berbicara mengenai penegakkan keadilan. Dengan latar belakang yang berbeda, dua tokoh ini melakukan kontekstualisasi dan menanggapi tantangan sosial, ekonomi, dan politik kontemporer. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana pemikiran Farid Esack dan Asghar Ali Engineer dan pendekatan hermeneutika keduanya. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah deskriptif analitis. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa; Pertama, metode hermeneutika yang digagas oleh Esack menawarkan enam kunci yang menjadi basis pendekatan hermeneutikanya, Adapun Asghar, dalam menafsirkan Al-Qur’an seringkali menekankan pemahaman terhadap konteks. Asghar akan meninjau sosio historis saat ayat turun dan memahami teks sesuai konteks. Kedua tokoh ini sama-sama menggunakan kontekstualisasi dalam hermneutikanya; Kedua, mengenai keadilan, dua tokoh ini sama-sama berangkat dengan teologi pembebasan meski dengan gagasan yang sedikit berbeda. Esack sangat ingin memberantas tripple oppression di Afrika Selatan saat itu, yakni apartheid, patriarki, dan kapitalisme. Ia sangat menentang ketidakadilan. Sedangkan Asghar berangkat dari semangat liberatif yang ada dalam sejarah keislaman dan Al-Qur’an. Dengan latar belakangnya yang juga seorang dai kemudian membawa hal tersebut untuk menentang ketidakadilan pada konteks di India tempat dia tinggal.
Farid Esack and Asghar Ali Engineer are two figures who initiated liberation. In this liberation, they talk a lot about upholding justice. With different backgrounds, these two figures contextualize and respond to contemporary social, economic, and political challenges. This paper aims to find out how Farid Esack and Asghar Ali Engineer think and their hermeneutical approach. The method used in the research is descriptive analytical. The results of this study are: first, the hermeneutical method initiated by Esack offers six keys that form the basis of his hermeneutical approach, Asghar, in interpreting the Qur'an, often emphasizes an understanding of the context. Asghar will review the socio-history when the verse is revealed and understand the text according to the context. These two figures both use contextualization in their hermeneutics; secondly, regarding justice, these two figures both depart from liberation theology, although with slightly different ideas. Esack wanted to eradicate the triple oppression in South Africa at that time, namely apartheid, patriarchy, and capitalism. He strongly opposed injustice. Meanwhile, Asghar departs from the liberative spirit that exists in Islamic history and the Qur'an. With his background as a preacher, he then brought this up to oppose injustice in the Indian context where he lived
