Abstract

This study reinterprets Quranic verses on polygamy (specifically QS An-Nisā’:3) through Ibn ʿᾹshūr’s maqāṣid al-sharīʿah theory to address accusations of gender bias in Islam. Employing descriptive qualitative methodology and content analysis, it critically examines classical and contextual interpretations that either rigidly adhere to textualism or overemphasize socio-historical contexts, both deemed insufficient for resolving contemporary gender critiques. Ibn ʿᾹshūr’s approach presented as a moderate, universal framework minimizing juristic discord and blind fanaticism—reveals three key insights: First, the verse intrinsically links to preceding orphan-protection contexts, with polygamy framed as an emergency solution to prevent adultery (zinā) amid social vulnerabilities. Second, polygamy’s permissibility carries stringent, non-negotiable conditions of material and relational justice (e.g., separate residences, equitable financial support), rendering it practically arduous and contextually restricted. Third, asymmetrical rulings—permitting polygamy but prohibiting polyandry are justified through fiqh al-awlawiyāt (prioritization jurisprudence): polygamy’s micro-level harms ( jealousy) are outweighed by its macro-level benefits ( lineage preservation, disease prevention), while polyandry’s irreversible harms (lineage confusion, disease proliferation) exceed its potential benefits. The study concludes that Ibn ‘Āsyūr’s theory offers a balanced, gender-neutral exegesis by harmonizing textual fidelity with contextual maṣlaḥah (public interest), positioning polygamy as a last-resort safeguard rather than an unconditional right. This approach is advocated for reinterpretations of other contested Islamic legal verses.

Abstract

This research addresses a persistent conceptual gap in the fields of Qur'anic exegesis (tafsīr) and Islamic legal theory, namely the overlap and lack of systematic distinction between maqāṣid al-Qur'ān (the objectives of the Qur'an) and maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah (the objectives of Islamic law). Although both concepts are increasingly referenced in contemporary Islamic discourse—alongside the development of tafsīr maqāṣidī (purpose-based exegesis)—the theoretical boundaries, developmental genealogy, and methodological relationship between the two remain under-theorized in existing literature. This study presents a novel analytical comparison by examining both frameworks through six dimensions: definition, source, methodological approach, historical development, axiology, and operational function. Through a comparative-analytical qualitative study of classical and contemporary sources, this paper demonstrates that the relationship between the two is one of absolute generality and specificity (al-‘umūm wa al-khuṣūṣ al-muṭlaq), wherein every maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah is encompassed within the maqāṣid al-Qur’ān, but the reverse is not true. Furthermore, this research clarifies that tafsīr maqāṣidī functions as an interpretive tool (wasīlah) to uncover maqāṣid al-Qur’ān, particularly at the thematic, verse, and surah levels. By proposing this clearer typology and hierarchical model, this research contributes to a more precise and methodologically grounded application in Qur'anic interpretation, Islamic legal theory, and contemporary ijtihād.
