- Abstract
The understanding of hijrah should not stop at only outward understanding. It is because, in the Islamic scientific tradition, the inner aspect also needs to be considered. Currently, hijrah is becoming a trend, but it is interpreted with meaning. Hijrah, in this case, is defined as a term for people who change their clothes, but their behavior does not reflect the person who emigrated. Thus, it is necessary to bring back the Sufi interpretation of hijrah. The meaning of hijrah is also interpreted in QS. An-Nisa [4] verse 100 as the outer and inner dimensions so that hijrah can be interpreted in-depth. Qualitative methods were used in this study to concentrate on library research and analyze data using descriptive-analytical methods. The results indicate that (1) from an esoteric perspective, hijrah is defined as a complete hijrah of the heart seeking the pleasure of God, and who remembers that he is his promise to Allah and His Messenger, and (2) hijrah from an exoteric view is hijrah in the sense of moving from one place to another that is far from disobedience and harm as in the previous place.
