Krisis Ekologi Lebah dalam QS. An-Nahl:68–69 Perspektif Tafsir Ilmi
Main Article Content
Abstract
Write down This study examines the ecological crisis of bees through the perspective of scientific interpretation (tafsir ilmi) of QS. An-Nahl verses 68–69 by integrating Qur’anic interpretation with modern scientific findings. The study aims to analyze the meaning of divine inspiration to bees in classical and contemporary interpretations, explore its relevance to modern ecological crises, and formulate the contribution of tafsir ilmi in constructing Islamic environmental ethics. This research employs a qualitative library research method through the analysis of interpretations by Ibn Kathir, Al-Qurthubi, and M. Quraish Shihab combined with modern ecological and entomological studies. The findings reveal that QS. An-Nahl verses 68–69 not only describe the biological wonders of bees and the benefits of honey but also contain ecological messages concerning the preservation of habitats, biodiversity, and environmental balance. Tafsir ilmi functions as a bridge between revelation and environmental science in developing human ecological awareness as khalifah on earth. Therefore, bee conservation is understood not merely as an ecological necessity but also as a moral and spiritual responsibility in Islam.
