Quranic Interpretation, Millennial Generation, Inclusive ApproachAbstract
The Qur'an, as a source of guidance for Muslims, requires an approach that is relevant and easy to understand for the millennial generation. This article highlights the importance of interpreting the Qur'an in the millennial context, emphasizing an inclusive and enlightening approach. The millennial generation, who grew up in the era of technology and globalization, is often faced with challenges in understanding religious values contextually and applicatively in everyday life. Therefore, the interpretation of the Qur'an must be presented in a way that can bridge the scientific tradition with the dynamics of the times. This approach not only includes a literal understanding of the text, but also an interpretation that takes into account the social, cultural, and needs of millennials. In this inclusive interpretation, diversity of perspectives, plurality, and a more open understanding are the core of creating space for all levels of society, especially the younger generation, to feel the depth of the meaning of Allah's revelation in a relevant and applicative manner. Thus, this article aims to explore the potential of interpreting the Qur'an that is closer to the reality of millennial life, encouraging them to better understand, apply, and live the values of the Qur'an in the modern world.References
