Konsep Tawakal dalam Tafsir Al-Wasith : Studi Surah Al-Ma'arij
Main Article Content
Abstract
This qualitative research examines the concept of tawakal (trust in God) in Sheikh Muhammad
Sayyid Thantawi's Tafsir Al-Wasith, specifically in the interpretation of Surah Al-Ma'arij.
The study employs a descriptive-analytical approach through library research, with primary
data from Tafsir Al-Wasith and secondary data from other relevant sources. The findings
reveal that Thantawi interprets the negative human characteristics described in verses 19-21
restlessness (halu'a), complaining (jazu'a), and stinginess (manu'a) as inherent
psychological-spiritual realities. Thantawi positions continuous and devout prayer (verses 22-
23) as a spiritual therapy mechanism to build self-discipline and transcendental awareness.
The research concludes that, in Thantawi's view, tawakal emerges as the culmination of a
transformative process an active and serene state of mind achieved after maximum effort,
representing a mature spiritual response to life's fluctuations. This study contributes to the
development of an integrated spiritual counseling model based on Qur'anic values.
