Abstract

This research aims to understand the perspectives of students (santri) at Pesma An-Nur Islamic Boarding School, Surabaya, regarding the differences in determining the beginning of the Hijri months particularly Ramadan, Shawwal, and Dhu al-Hijjah. Every year, Muslims in Indonesia often face disagreements about when to start fasting or celebrate Islamic holidays due to the use of different methods, such as rukyat (moon sighting) and hisab (astronomical calculations). Islamic organizations like Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), Muhammadiyah, and the Indonesian government follow varying approaches, which often leads to differences in worship schedules. This study uses a survey method through an online questionnaire (Google Form) distributed to students of Pesma An-Nur, who come from various regions and organizational backgrounds. The collected data was analyzed to identify their understanding of moon sighting methods, their affiliation with specific Islamic organizations, and their attitudes toward the ongoing differences in determining the start of the Hijri months. The results show that most students tend to follow the government's decision to maintain unity and avoid confusion during important religious events. Many are more familiar with the rukyat method, and some have even participated in moon sighting activities themselves. Even though opinions differ, most students adopt a tolerant attitude and see these differences as part of Islamic diversity rather than a source of conflict. They believe mutual respect and understanding are key to preserving religious harmony in society.

Abstract

This study examines the practice of delaying the call to prayer (adzan) for Dhuhr and Asr in Pare, Kediri, as a social response to the agrarian and educational rhythms of the community. Employing a qualitative approach and qawaid fiqhiyyah analysis, the findings reveal that this temporal adjustment is not a deviation but a manifestation of fiqh responsive to local realities. Legal maxims such as al-‘ādah muḥakkamah, al-mashaqqah tajlibu at-taysīr, and maslahah mursalah form the normative basis for legitimizing this practice within the bounds of Sharia. The Syafi’i school offers a consistent yet contextually flexible methodological framework in addressing such socio-religious phenomena. This adjustment also aligns with the objectives of Islamic law (maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah), particularly in preserving religion (ḥifẓ al-dīn) and fostering congregational engagement. Thus, the delayed adzan in Pare reflects an adaptive, maslahah-oriented, and contextually grounded face of Islamic jurisprudence. This study advocates for a model of Islamic law that is not merely textual, but transformative and deeply rooted in the lived realities of the ummah.

Abstract

The fire that occurred in Kroya Market, Cilacap, significantly impacted traders, particularly regarding the fulfillment of financial support within families. In Islam, the husband is responsible for providing for his wife and children, as emphasized by Wahbah al-Zuhaili in Fiqh Islam wa Adillatuhu, which outlines the scope of nafkah (financial support). This study aims to describe the fulfillment of husbands’ financial support for their wives—traders at Kroya Market—after the fire, through Wahbah al-Zuhaili’s perspective.This empirical juridical study uses a qualitative approach with data gathered through interviews, observation, and documentation. Primary data came from informant interviews, while secondary sources included literature studies.The findings show that overall fulfillment of financial support for wives decreased due to the fire. Out of the five aspects of nafkah, only food, housing, and household furnishings were adequately fulfilled in line with Wahbah al-Zuhaili’s views. Although the provision of domestic help was unmet, it remains justifiable in light of financial constraints. Clothing provision showed inconsistencies. Despite these challenges, husbands continued striving to fulfill obligations according to their capacity.

Abstract

Imam Ibn Taymiyyah was a great scholar with the title of Shaykhul Islam who played a role in purifying the teachings of Islam from khurafat and deviations. However, he never married in his life. This thesis discusses Imam Ibn Taymiyyah's views on the law of marriage and tabattul in Islam through library research. This research formulates two main problems: 1) Imam Ibn Taymiyyah's opinion on the law of marriage, and 2) His view on tabattul. The aim is to describe the law of marriage and tabattul in his thought based on existing sources. The results show that according to Imam Ibn Taymiyyah, the law of marriage is basically sunnah, in line with the opinion of the majority of scholars. If someone is worried about falling into adultery, marriage is preferred to the obligatory Hajj. Marriage is seen as a means of maintaining personal chastity and fulfilling human nature. Meanwhile, tabattul, which is the attitude of avoiding marriage absolutely, is not recommended because Allah SWT has ordered marriage as a good for His servants. Imam Ibn Taymiyyah emphasized that avoiding marriage without a justifiable reason could mean forbidding something that Allah has already legalized. Therefore, Islam recommends marriage as part of worship and a more perfect life.

Abstract

This thesis aims to find out the basis of the Panel of Judges' considerations in the Decision of the Bekasi Religious Court Number 2560/Pdt.G/2022/PA.Bks in the Divorce Lawsuit for the accumulation of hadlonah and child support, and to find out the basis of Islamic Law in this decision.This research aims to analyze the impact of parental divorce on children's rights based on an Islamic legal perspective using the Maqashid Syariah approach, with a case study of Decision Number 2560/Pdt.G/2022/PA.Bks. Maqashid Syariah are principles in Islamic law that aim to protect five basic human interests: religion, soul, reason, lineage and property. In this context, research focuses on how the protection of children's rights, including rights to custody, education, living and psychological well-being, is considered and applied in divorce decisions. The research method used is a qualitative approach with juridical-normative analysis of Decision Number 2560/Pdt.G/2022/PA.Bks. Data was obtained through studying court decision documents and literature related to Islamic law and Maqashid Syariah. The analysis was carried out by examining how Maqashid Syariah principles were applied in the decision to ensure the protection and welfare of children.The research results show that in this decision, the court decided that child care was under the responsibility of the mother, while the father was obliged to provide maintenance. This decision is based on Maqashid Syariah principles which emphasize the importance of protecting the lives and welfare of children. Apart from that, this decision also takes into account the psychological aspects of the child to reduce the negative impact of divorce

Abstract

The childfree phenomenon—defined as a deliberate choice by married couples to not have children—has significantly increased in recent years. Economic pressures, fear of parental responsibility, lifestyle changes, and rising individualism are among the primary contributors to this trend. This study critically examines the childfree phenomenon through the lens of Maqasid al-Nikah, a subcategory of Maqasid al-Shari’ah. This research employs a normative approach by analyzing Qur’anic verses, prophetic traditions, classical jurisprudential texts, and contemporary scholarly literature. The findings reveal that the essential purposes of marriage in Islam include hifz al-nasl (preservation of lineage), tranquility (sakinah), lawful fulfillment of biological needs, and the establishment of the family as a moral-educational institution. Permanent childfree decisions contradict the maqasid of marriage because they negate the objective of lineage preservation. However, temporary childfree decisions are permissible under valid reasons, such as health concerns or considerations of genuine necessity. This study highlights the importance of an educational and empathetic approach to guide younger generations toward reproductive decisions aligned with Islamic values.

Abstract

This study examines the concept of mafhūm al-mukhālafah in the discipline of uṣūl al-fiqh as one of the methods of legal derivation (istinbāṭ al-ḥukm) from the Qur’an and Hadith. Conducted through library research, the data were collected from classical and contemporary works of Islamic jurisprudence, along with supporting academic literature. The findings indicate that mafhūm al-mukhālafah is understood as a meaning derived not directly from the text, but from its opposite implication. Scholars classify mafhūm al-mukhālafah into several types, including mafhūm al-ḥaṣr, al-ṣifah, al-sharṭ, al-ghāyah, al-‘adad, and al-laqab. Each type has its own distinctive rules of application, yet all share the same principle that legal rulings may be derived from implied meanings. This study highlights the significance of mafhūm al-mukhālafah as an important tool of legal reasoning in Islamic law and reflects the dynamic scholarly discourse surrounding its application.
