<![CDATA[This study examines the concept of Asy-Syura (consultation) in Islam and its relevance to democratic values, with reference to Wahbah al-Zuhaili’s interpretation in Tafsir al-Munir. The research is motivated by the significance of consultation as a principle in building an Islamic civilization that is just, participatory, and respectful of human dignity as social beings. Employing a qualitative approach through library research, Tafsir al-Munir serves as the primary source, supported by secondary literature on Quranic exegesis, Islamic political thought, and democracy. The findings reveal that al-Zuhaili interprets Asy-Syura as a fundamental principle in Islamic law, functioning to regulate decision-making and prevent authoritarianism in governance. In his perspective, consultation embodies not only spiritual and social dimensions but also political implications that encourage participation and justice in societal management. Consequently, Asy-Syura can be understood as an ethical-political foundation that aligns with democratic values within the framework of Islamic governance.]]>
