Tafsir Nur al-Ihsan is a work in the field of Qur'anic interpretation written by Syeikh Muhammad Said Umar This work complements the description and interpretation of the 30 juz of the Qur'an starting from surah al-Fatihah to surah al-Nasa and it becomes a reference, teaching and learning material as well as community reading material. However, based on the researcher's preliminary reading, it was found that the use of punctuation marks applied by the author when producing Tafsir Nur al-Ihsan was partly inaccurate. This causes the reader to be confused by the interpretation and commentary given by the author and at the same time makes this work less interesting to read and understand. Therefore, this study aims to reveal the matter as well as provide suggestions for punctuation marks that are more suitable to use. In terms of research methodology, this research applies textual studies and library research in identifying and revealing the punctuation marks in Tafsir Nur al-Ihsan. This study shows that the punctuation marks used by Syeikh Muhammad Said Umar in Tafsir Nur al-Ihsan are comma (,), period (.), hyphen (-), colon (:), question mark (?), exclamation mark (!), number 2, number 3 and parentheses ( ) which are partly used incorrectly. It is hoped that this study can provide recommendations for more appropriate punctuation marks as well as remove the confusion of the public when reading Tafsir Nur al-Ihsan.
