Abstract

This study describes a Javanese literary work nuanced in Islamic art entitled Macapat Al-Qur’an. This literary work is in the form of a macapat song. This literary work was composed based on the translation of the Al-Qur’an. The macapat song for the Javanese people is a work of art that has been very popular for a long time, but today’s millennial generation, many don’t know it, let alone sing it. This study wants to reveal the Macapat of the Al-Qur’an from various perspectives to be understood by the public, especially the millennial generation. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques using interviews, observations, document studies, and focus group discussions (FGD). The results showed that the Macapat Al-Qur’an viewed from the perspective of fiqh does not conflict with Islamic teachings. Therefore, it is beneficial to instill moderate socio-religious values for students from an educational perspective. Viewed from the perspective of cultural arts, it can positively contribute to strengthening Islamic moderation through cultural arts. In addition, when viewed from a tourism perspective, it can inspire the birth of local culture-based art groups that support tourism development.
