Maqasid Syariah, which literally means "goals of sharia", refers to five aspects The main things that must be maintained in human life are religion (deen), soul (nafs), reason (aql), heredity (nasl), and wealth (mal). This approach emphasizes the importance of creating a harmonious, just and prosperous life, by prioritizing a balance between material and spiritual needs. In this context, maqasid sharia provides guidance for building an economic system that does not only prioritize material profits, but also focuses on social equality and justice. Likewise in politics, maqasid sharia emphasizes the importance of justice, protection of human rights and people's welfare.
