QS. Al-Baqarah verse 7 describes the sealing of the heart, hearing, and sight as a consequence of rejecting divine truth. This study aims to analyze the symbol of the “sealed heart” through a semiotic approach, employing Roland Barthes’ framework of denotation, connotation, and myth/ideology, alongside Charles Sanders Peirce’s triadic model of icon, index, and symbol. The research adopts a qualitative-descriptive library method, utilizing classical tafsīr (al-Ṭabarī, al-Qurṭubī) and contemporary exegesis (Quraish Shihab), as well as modern semiotic literature. The findings reveal that the sealed heart functions not only as a connotative symbol of spiritual consciousness closed to truth, but also as an ideological construct representing systematic resistance to revelation. This phenomenon is reflected in human attitudes that struggle to accept advice, frequently turn away from truth, and persistently resist constructive guidance, thereby transforming repeated rejection into myths and ideologies that justify error. This analysis highlights the urgency of semiotics in Qur’anic exegesis, as it uncovers deeper layers of meaning, connects the text to socio-cultural contexts, and offers methodological innovation in contemporary tafsīr studies. Consequently, this research contributes theoretically to the development of interdisciplinary tafsīr methodology and provides practical relevance for readers of the Qur’an in understanding divine messages more profoundly and contextually in modern life.
