Abstract

This article examines the role of key Islamic jurisprudential principles as constraints in the application of Islamic law, particularly in situations involving emergencies or conflicting obligations. It focuses on two foundational rules: al-rukhaṣ lā tunāṭ bi al-maʿāṣī (legal relief does not apply to immorality) and al-wājib lā yutraq illā li-wājib (an obligation may not be abandoned except for the sake of another obligation). Through a library-based research method, the study analyzes the meanings, sources, and practical relevance of these principles by discussing contemporary scenarios such as invoking rukhṣah during sinful travel, postponing prayer due to urgent medical duties, and balancing academic commitments with the obligation of Friday prayer. The findings highlight the significance of employing the principles of caution (iḥtiyāṭ) and prioritization (tartīb al-awlawiyyāt) in legal istinbāṭ (derivation). These limiting principles serve to protect the integrity of Sharia from the misuse of emergency concessions while promoting justice, public benefit (maṣlaḥah), and alignment between scriptural texts and real-life contexts. The integration of these rules is essential for formulating contextual Islamic legal responses that remain faithful to ethical and evidentiary foundations of Sharia.

Abstract

This study examines the contestation of religious authority between As’adiyah, representing local traditional ulama, and Ustadz Firanda, representing the transnational Salafi da'wah movement, focusing on the case of Firanda's rejection in Wajo Regency, South Sulawesi. The central argument of this research is that strong religious authority is not solely derived from online popularity but is instead grounded in social legitimacy, contextual wisdom, and an established scholarly reputation for maintaining harmony within a culturally diverse Muslim society. Using a qualitative approach with a case study method, this research draws upon a formal statement issued by the As’adiyah community. The findings reveal that the rejection of Firanda's da'wah was motivated not only by theological differences but also by efforts to preserve the continuity of local jurisprudence and the socio-cultural harmony of the Bugis community. Local religious authority, rooted in the legacy of the Shafi’i school and Bugis cultural values, demonstrates significant resilience against the expansion of purification-oriented transnational da'wah movements. This study underscores the importance of reactualizing local jurisprudence based on maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah to address the challenges posed by transnational da'wah, particularly in promoting the common good (maṣlaḥah) of the ummah and safeguarding local culture.

Abstract

The application of hudud in Islamic criminal law requires the highest level of legal certainty due to its direct relation to the protection of life, dignity, and individual freedom. The concept of shubha functions as a crucial safeguard to prevent judicial error in punishments that are fixed and irreversible. This study aims to analyze the concept, legal foundations, and contemporary implications of the maxim al-hudud tasqut bi al-shubuhat. Using a qualitative descriptive literature study, the research reveals four key findings: shubha operates as a barrier to enforcing hudud when doubt exists in the act, intention, or evidence; classical and modern scholars consistently affirm that even minimal doubt nullifies hudud to preserve justice; the judicial practice of the Prophet’s Companions demonstrates exceptional caution toward ambiguous cases; and the standard of proof for hudud must reach absolute certainty. The study concludes that shubha serves as a fundamental principle for ensuring substantive justice. Its main contribution lies in strengthening the relevance of this maxim within modern Islamic criminal law discourse.

Abstract

This study examines the role of the usul al-fiqh maxim al-hukmu yaduru maa illatihi wujudan wa adaman (a legal ruling revolves with its effective cause in both its existence and nonexistence) as a foundation for the flexibility of Islamic law in responding to contemporary social dynamics. Employing a qualitative library research method, the study analyzes the application of this maxim in both classical cases (such as the prohibition of khamr and the obligation of zakat) and contemporary contexts (including the suspension of Friday prayers and the formulation of Sharia-based policies during the COVID-19 pandemic). The findings indicate that this maxim effectively sustains the relevance of Islamic law by ensuring its conformity with the Maqasid al-Shariah, particularly in safeguarding life (hifz al-nafs) and promoting the public interest (al-maslahah al-ammah). These findings underscore the urgency of applying rational Sharia legal maxims as a foundational basis for the development of positive law oriented toward Islamic values.
