Abstract

This study examines the concept of istita'ah (capability), and the problems faced by pilgrims in Indonesia with the departure regulation that implements a waiting list system. This research is purely a literature study using a normative juridical approach. Islamic law stipulates that one of the conditions that must be met by someone who will perform the pilgrimage is istita'ah (capable) which includes aspects of physical and spiritual health, financial ability, and safe situation. Unfortunately, even though these conditions have been met, it does not necessarily allow someone to go directly to Mecca to perform the pilgrimage. The reason is that there is a quota system set by the Saudi Arabian Government to balance the coming pilgrims with the capacity of the holy cities of Mecca and Medina. As a result of this quota system, prospective pilgrims in Indonesia have to queue waiting for departure, with a waiting time span of tens of years. This study finds out that the waiting list system, although aimed at ensuring the smooth and comfortable in performing pilgrimage, turned out to be an obstacle, because there is no guarantee that a person, in such a long waiting period, will remain healthy, even many. some of them had died before the time of departure arrived. Therefore, the government must find a solution to suppress the waiting list so that it does not continue to extend, by setting certain criteria for individuals who will register, for example the age limit and whether or not the person has performed hajj before.

Abstract

Background: The global financial system faces escalating challenges in reconciling ethical wealth distribution with sustainable development, particularly within Islamic economies. Despite the shared emphasis of Maqasid al-Shariah (objectives of Islamic law) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on justice, equity, and environmental stewardship, their integration remains fragmented. Islamic financial institutions (IFIs) often prioritize Shariah compliance over proactive contributions to sustainability, while regulatory fragmentation and gender-environment gaps hinder systemic progress. Objectives: This study aims to: (1) analyze the structural alignment between Maqasid al-Shariah and SDGs in Islamic financial planning, (2) identify systemic barriers to their integration, and (3) propose actionable strategies to optimize Islamic finance’s role in ethical wealth distribution. Novelty: The research fills critical gaps in Islamic academic discourse by: Introducing the Maqasid-SDG Integration Theory, which recontextualizes classical Islamic jurisprudence within modern sustainability frameworks. Developing a Maqasid-SDG Index to evaluate financial products’ socio environmental impact, addressing the absence of standardized metrics. Resolving debates on adaptive jurisprudence (e.g., redefining daruriyyat to include climate action) and gender inclusivity in Islamic finance. Research Methodology / Design: A mixed-methods sequential explanatory design was employed, combining Qualitative Analysis: Thematic coding of classical texts (e.g., al-Shatibi’s Al-Muwafaqat), 45 semi-structured interviews with Shariah scholars and policymakers, and case studies of Malaysia and Indonesia. Quantitative Analysis: PLS-SEM modeling of secondary data from 30 IFIs (2015–2023) and regression analysis of SDG progress metrics (e.g., poverty rates, CO2 emissions). Comparative Jurisprudence: Cross-referencing Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi’i, and Hanbali interpretations of wealth distribution ethics. Findings: SDG Alignment: Shariah-compliant mechanisms like Zakat and green Sukuk reduced povertyby 12.7% and emissions by 2.3 million metric tons annually, respectively (β = 0.42, p < 0.01). Institutional Barriers: Regulatory fragmentation limited SDG-aligned financing to 28% in GCC countries versus 64% in Malaysia. Gender disparities persisted, with only 12% of Islamic banks offering women centric products. Theoretical Advancements: The Maqasid-SDG Index revealed a 63% explanatory power (R² = 0.63) for ethical outcomes, while juristic reinterpretations of maslaha (public interest) enabled blockchain-based Sukuk innovations. Implication: Theoretical: The study bridges Islamic ethics with sustainability science, offering a dynamic framework for adaptive jurisprudence. Practical: Policymakers should prioritize (1) cross-border regulatory harmonization, (2) financial literacy campaigns, and (3) gender-environment nexus products (e.g., Takaful for women-led green enterprises). Policy: Centralized Shariah governance, as seen in Malaysia’s Value-Based Intermediation framework, enhances SDG alignment but requires balancing with grassroots inclusivity (r= -0.58).
