Qualitative research analyzes lexical translations of Hattā in the Quran, highlighting variations in Arabic-Malay translation concepts.
The lexical Ḥattā is a particle in Arabic known as al-ḥarf [الحرف] which has its own special features from linguistic aspects such as word classification, particle classification, language rules (inflection), implications for the lexical after it and the variety of its translation variations in Malay. Qualitative research was chosen as the method of this study to analyze the variations of the lexical translation of Ḥattā in the Quran to see the variety of its translations in the Malay based in surah al-Baqarah using al-Quran Mushaf Malaysia dan Terjemahan (QMMT) as the study material. The study has recorded 15 examples of lexical Ḥattā along with its translation from the entire surah al-Baqarah to analyze the variations of lexical translation of Ḥattā based on the concept of Arabic-Malay translation as discussed by translation scholars. The study shows that lexical Ḥattā has its own special translation variations because lexical Ḥattā is a particle that performs several language functions and the translation results also differ from one lexical to another. The lexical Ḥattā in the Quran certainly provides specific translation variations because the Quran is a holy book that contains the uniqueness and beauty of its Arabic language which differs from the lexical translation of Ḥattā in the context of everyday Arabic which is general and can be understood directly from the meaning. Therefore, the variations in the lexical translation of Ḥattā found in the Quran are interesting to analyze, especially from the aspect of the concept of its translation into Malay as the target language.
