Abstract

The purpose of this study is to reassess the application of the maslahah (public interest) framework in a minority Muslim setting, specifically through an analysis of the 2023 MUI South Sulawesi Fatwa (No. 003) regarding the permissibility of selling crops for pig feed in Toraja. By examining this fatwa, the study aims to contribute to the broader discourse on how Islamic legal reasoning adapts within pluralistic and socio-economically diverse contexts. The research employs a qualitative methodology that combines library research and field study. The library research encompasses Islamic legal sources, previous fatwas, and scholarly literature on maslahah (public interest) and transactions involving prohibited elements in Islam. The field study complements this with interviews involving MUI South Sulawesi scholars and Muslim community members in Toraja, providing insights into both the rationale behind the fatwa and the community’s reception. The findings demonstrate that the fatwa represents a shift from the conventional reliance on blocking the sadd al-dharī‘ah (means to harm) toward a more pragmatic application of maslahah (public interest) and istihsān (juridical preference). By allowing the sale of crops for pig feed, the fatwa acknowledges the socio-economic realities faced by minority Muslims in Toraja and highlights the adaptability of Islamic law in non-majority settings. The originality of this study lies in situating the fatwa within the lived experiences of minority Muslims, showing how maslahah (public interest) functions beyond abstract legal theorization. The implications extend to the development of a more contextual and responsive Islamic jurisprudence that remains relevant to diverse Muslim communities navigating pluralistic societies.
