Konsep Pakaian Menurut Zainab al-Ghazali dalam Nazarat fi Kitabillah

Abstract

This study examines the concept of clothing in the Qur’an based on the interpretation of Zainab al-Ghazali al-Jubaili in Nazarat fi Kitabillah. The research aims to describe Qur’anic verses related to clothing and analyze their interpretation according to Zainab al-Ghazali. Employing a qualitative library research design with a biographical approach, the primary source is Nazarat fi Kitabillah, supported by secondary literature such as books, journals, and articles. The findings reveal that Zainab al-Ghazali interprets clothing as a means to cover the ‘awrah (yusattirūna bihā ‘aurātahum) and emphasizes that the Qur’an refers to clothing through three terms: libās, tsiyāb, and sarābīl. Among these, libās most explicitly denotes physical clothing. The study concludes that clothing for women must cover the ‘awrah and prevent negative attention, aligning with the ethical and spiritual dimensions of Qur’anic guidance.
