Abstract

Maqashid al-shariah is a fundamental concept in Islamic law that explains the purpose of establishing sharia to realize human welfare. In the development of modern Islamic legal thought, this concept is increasingly gaining attention as a methodological approach in understanding Islamic law more contextually. This study aims to analyze the basic concept of maqashid al-shariah, the development of its thought in the tradition of classical scholars, and its relevance as a paradigm in the development of contemporary Islamic legal theory. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method through a conceptual analysis of classical and modern literature on maqashid al-shariah. The results of the study indicate that the concept of maqashid al-shariah has been formulated systematically by scholars of the usul fiqh, especially Abu Hamid Al-Ghazali and Abu Ishaq Al-Shatibi, who emphasize that the main purpose of sharia is to maintain human welfare through the protection of five basic needs. In the development of modern thought, this concept was then expanded by thinkers such as Muhammad al-Tahir Ibn Ashur and Yusuf al-Qaradawi so that maqashid was not only understood as a theory in the principles of fiqh, but also as a methodological paradigm in formulating more contextual Islamic law. In conclusion, maqashid al-shariah has significant relevance as a paradigm in the development of contemporary Islamic legal theory because it is able to explain the relationship between the text of the sharia and the beneficial objectives to be realized. Therefore, the maqashid approach needs to continue to be developed in the study of Islamic law so that it can make a more adaptive contribution to the dynamics of modern society.

Abstract

The development of modern society presents a variety of increasingly complex legal issues that are often not explicitly discussed in classical Islamic jurisprudence literature. This condition creates the need for a methodological approach capable of bridging the gap between normative Islamic texts and the ever-evolving social dynamics. In this context, the concept of maqasid al-shari'ah becomes an important approach in the development of Islamic legal ijtihad oriented towards the benefit of Allah. This study aims to analyze the development of maqasid al-shari'ah thought in Islamic intellectual history and examine its relevance in the development of contemporary Islamic law. This study uses a qualitative approach with library research methods and historical analysis of the development of the maqasid concept in classical and modern literature. The research data were obtained through a review of the works of ulama usul fiqh as well as the thoughts of contemporary scholars who discuss maqasid theory and its application in Islamic legal methodology. The results show that the concept of maqasid al-shari'ah has undergone significant development in the history of Islamic thought, starting from its initial formulation regarding the benefit in the classical usul fiqh tradition to its broader reinterpretation in modern Islamic thought. These developments demonstrate that maqasid functions not only as a theoretical concept in Islamic legal studies but also as a methodological paradigm that allows Islamic law to adapt to social change without abandoning the fundamental principles of sharia. This study concludes that the maqasid approach has strong relevance in addressing various modern legal problems because it provides a more substantive and contextual interpretative framework. Therefore, the development of maqasid studies needs to continue through an interdisciplinary approach to strengthen the ijtihad methodology and enhance the contribution of Islamic law in addressing legal challenges in the modern era.
