Abstract

This study discusses the existence and relevance of zakat tijarah (trade zakat) from the perspective of maqasid sharia through an Islamic legal philosophy approach. The main objective of this study is to examine how zakat tijarah functions not only as an obligatory act of worship, but also as an instrument of social and economic justice in realizing the welfare of the people. The method used is qualitative-descriptive based on literature study with ontological, epistemological, and axiological analysis. The results of the study show that ontologically, zakat tijarah emphasizes that wealth is a trust from Allah SWT that must be purified; epistemologically, the basis of the obligation of zakat tijarah is sourced from the Qur'an, Hadith, and ijtihad of scholars; while axiologically, zakat tijarah plays an important role in economic equality, poverty alleviation, and strengthening social solidarity. Within the framework of maqasid sharia, zakat tijarah is proven to be in line with the objectives of Islamic law, namely protecting religion, life, mind, descendants, and wealth. This study confirms that zakat tijarah has high spiritual and social value and is relevant to be applied contextually in the modern era, especially in supporting distributive justice and the welfare of the people through the principle of maslahah mursalah. Abstrak Penelitian ini membahas eksistensi dan relevansi zakat tijarah (zakat perdagangan) dalam perspektif maqasid syariah melalui pendekatan filsafat hukum Islam. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah untuk menelaah bagaimana zakat tijarah tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai kewajiban ibadah, tetapi juga sebagai instrumen keadilan sosial dan ekonomi dalam mewujudkan kemaslahatan umat. Metode yang digunakan adalah kualitatif-deskriptif berbasis studi kepustakaan dengan analisis ontologis, epistemologis, dan aksiologis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara ontologis, zakat tijarah menegaskan bahwa harta merupakan titipan Allah SWT yang harus disucikan; secara epistemologis, dasar kewajiban zakat tijarah bersumber dari Al-Qur’an, Hadis, dan ijtihad ulama; sedangkan secara aksiologis, zakat tijarah berperan penting dalam pemerataan ekonomi, pengentasan kemiskinan, serta memperkuat solidaritas sosial. Dalam kerangka maqasid syariah, zakat tijarah terbukti selaras dengan tujuan syariat Islam yaitu menjaga agama, jiwa, akal, keturunan, dan harta. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa zakat tijarah memiliki nilai spiritual dan sosial yang tinggi serta relevan untuk diterapkan secara kontekstual di era modern, terutama dalam mendukung keadilan distributif dan kesejahteraan umat melalui prinsip maslahah mursalah.
