“…The sign can be words, gestures, images, sounds, and objects. Ferdinand de Saussure, a founder of modern semiotics, divides the sign into two parts, the signifier (the form/form taken from the sign) and the signified (represented concept) [10].…”

Modern society's understanding of the meaning of Azab is often inaccurate; many understand it as torture, cruelty, and God's retribution. This article was created to examine how the concept of Azab is understood and perceived by Muslims. Because most know Azab as torment, pain, and God's cruelty, Roland Barthes' semiotics will be used as a knife to find out how the true meaning of doom from the Qur'an relates to this topic for analysis. Barthes argues that all language systems can be understood through two steps: the first is known as the linguistic system (linguistics), and the second is known as the myth system (mythology). To achieve the myth system, namely by using a sign system consisting of three components: the signifier, the signified, and the sign on the second level. Using Roland Barthes' semiotics, the concept of Azab, understanding that God will torture humans who have sins in the afterlife, is just a myth. Punishment is not a form of His wrath but a form of His love. God has given His servant signs of Azab as proof of nature ra?man and womb Him so that humans do not get that painful Azab. Even though, in the end, a sinful human still gets punishment (torture) as a reward for his actions, all of this is because God wants to purify and cleanse humans from sins while living in the world.

“…Therefore, the myth in question is not considered true based on metaphysical things. However, the myth referred to by Roland Barthes is a myth that can be found significant in giving birth to social, social, and cultural constructions (Jamaludin et al, 2021).…”

This study explores the environmental ecology concept implied in verse 18 of Surat Al-Mu'minun (QS. Al-Mu'minun. This study uses a semantic linguistic approach concerning Roland Barthes' theory in analyzing the meaning of the Qur'anic text. The analysis method involves reconstructing and understanding the meaning of keywords in the verse. The results revealed that verse 18 of Surat Al-Mu'minun reflects relevant ecological thinking related to man's responsibility toward the universe in Islam. Through Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis, the meaning of connotation and denotation was found. The meaning of the denotation is the text itself: "And We sent down water from heaven by a measure". While the meaning of the connotation is that water falling from the sky is rain, and with a measure, it means that humans cannot use it excessively. The concept of ecology in this verse includes aspects of protection and management of nature and ecosystem balance. This research provides insight into how the teachings of the Quran reflect environmental awareness and social responsibility in preserving the universe.
