Abstract

This study explores the influence of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based matchmaking platforms on the principle of kafa’ah viewed through the lens of fiqh munakahat. The acceleration of modernization, marked by the extensive integration of internet technologies, has encouraged a transition from traditional to digital methods in choosing life partners. AI-assisted matchmaking introduces a more adaptive and efficient mechanism for identifying preferred partner criteria. Employing a qualitative, descriptive–analytical approach, this study relies on library research. Primary data derive from both classical and contemporary Fiqh works that elaborate on the notion of kafa’ah within fiqh munakahat. In contrast, secondary data consist of journal articles and related academic sources. The analysis utilizes the maslahah framework to evaluate the contextual relevance of kafa’ah in the digital era. The findings indicate that AI matchmaking applications can serve as legitimate innovations for partner selection in the modern context, as long as they remain aligned with the legal foundations of fiqh munakahat concerning kafa’ah. The intersection between empirical technology and normative Islamic law opens a meaningful dialogue between traditional jurisprudence and emerging digital realities. Consequently, this research contributes to a more comprehensive public understanding of how AI technology may be utilized responsibly without compromising sharia principles

Abstract

Polygamy remains a persistently contested issue within Islamic jurisprudence, intersecting legal, ethical, and social dimensions. This study examines the concept of polygamy as articulated by Imām al-Nawawī in Al-Majmuʼ Syarh al-Muhadzdzab a seminal encyclopedic work of Shāfiʼī fiqh and evaluates it through the systemic Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah framework of Jasser Auda. Employing a descriptive-analytical library research method followed by a comparative-analytical approach (muwāzanah), this study systematically analyses primary and secondary sources to identify convergences and divergences between classical jurisprudential reasoning and contemporary maqāṣid thought. The findings reveal that al-Nawawī permits polygamy for up to four wives, conditioning it strictly upon material justice (qism and nafaqah) while explicitly recommending monogamy as a prudential preference to avert injustice. Jasser Auda's systemic approach, which prioritises human flourishing, harm reduction (dafʼ al-mafāsid), and contextual holistic justice encompassing emotional, psychological, and social well-being provides a substantially expanded evaluative lens. The comparative analysis demonstrates that, while both perspectives share the foundational telos of justice and welfare, Auda's framework demands an empirical assessment of real-world outcomes, rendering polygamy a highly constrained exception rather than a general permission in contemporary contexts. This study contributes to ongoing scholarly dialogue on the reform of Islamic family law by bridging classical and contemporary maqāṣid methodologies.
