Abstract

This study aims to analyse the legal status and permissibility of crypto asset trading from the perspective of muamalah jurisprudence, in light of the growing practice of blockchain-based digital transactions within Muslim communities. The research addresses legal questions related to the use of crypto assets as a medium of exchange or trade commodity under Islamic law. Utilising a qualitative approach through library research, the study examines the views of classical and contemporary scholars, as well as official fatwas on digital assets. The findings suggest that the legality of crypto asset trading remains subject to ijtihad (independent legal reasoning), with considerations based on factors such as benefits, system security, and contract transparency. Some scholars prohibit crypto trading due to concerns over gharar (ambiguity) and excessive speculation. In contrast, others permit it on the condition that crypto assets function as commodities rather than currency, and adhere to sharia principles, including clarity of the object, proper contractual elements, and compliance with contract requirements. The implications of this research emphasise the need for sharia-compliant regulations and education to guide the Muslim community in making informed decisions when investing and trading digital assets in line with Islamic muamalah principles.

Abstract

This study examines the concept of Maqāṣid al-Sharī‘ah as understood by al-Syāṭibī and its relevance to the development of contemporary Islamic law. Al-Syāṭibī, a key figure in the development of maqāṣid theory, introduced a systematic approach through his seminal work al-Muwāfaqāt. Using a qualitative method with a library research approach, this study analyses both primary and secondary sources, including the works of al-Syāṭibī and reviews from contemporary Islamic legal scholars. The findings reveal that al-Syāṭibī categorises maqāṣid into three levels: ḍarūriyyāt (essential), ḥājiyyāt (complementary), and taḥsīniyyāt (enhancing), focusing on the protection of five fundamental values: religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property. Al-Syāṭibī’s maqāṣid approach not only provides normative guidance but is also responsive to social dynamics. The implications of this study suggest that a deep understanding of maqāṣid can serve as a methodological foundation for formulating Islamic laws that are both contextual and solution-oriented, addressing the issues of modern society.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the phenomenon of early marriage from two main perspectives: Islamic jurisprudence and adolescent psychology. In Islamic jurisprudence, early marriage is often justified as long as it meets the requirements and pillars, but, psychologically, adolescence is considered a transitional period that is not yet emotionally or cognitively stable. This study uses a qualitative approach, drawing on literature on classical and contemporary Islamic jurisprudence and adolescent developmental psychology. The results of the study indicate that although Islamic jurisprudence does not explicitly prohibit early marriage, there are principles of maslahah (benefit) that require mental, emotional, and economic readiness before marriage. From a psychological perspective, marriage at a young age poses a risk to relationship stability due to immature communication skills, conflict resolution, and emotional control. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of an integrative approach to addressing early marriage, namely by considering both Islamic law and adolescent psychological readiness simultaneously. These findings can serve as a reference for educators, parents, and policymakers in providing more holistic, context-specific marriage education.
Islamic Law Analysis of the Practice of I’anah ‘ala al-ma’shiyah in Shuttle Rental Services Zainul Anwar

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the practice of I’anah ‘ala al-ma’shiyah (assisting in sinful acts) in shuttle rental services in Kuta District, Bali, from an Islamic law perspective. This phenomenon arises because some service providers are indirectly involved in activities that are contrary to sharia, such as taking tourists to nightclubs or locations that are synonymous with sin. This study uses a qualitative approach, including fieldwork and in-depth interviews with service providers, religious figures, and service users. The results of the study indicate that most service providers are aware of their potential involvement in the practice of I’anah ‘ala al-ma’shiyah, but still do it for economic reasons and work demands. From an Islamic law perspective, such involvement is included in the category of ta’āwun ‘ala al-ithm, which is prohibited. However, there are different views regarding the level of legal responsibility of service providers. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of Sharia education for service business actors and the need for alternative businesses that align more closely with Islamic principles, especially in tourist areas with high potential for sin.

Abstract

This study examines the permissibility of using Shopee coins in the Shopee application from the perspective of the four major Islamic schools of thought (Madhahibul Arba'ah) and its implications for digital economic practices. Shopee coins are a non-cash incentive that can be used to receive discounts on future transactions. The research employs a qualitative-descriptive approach, utilising literature studies and comparative fiqh analysis from the Hanafi, Maliki, Syafi’i, and Hanbali schools. The study finds that, in general, the use of Shopee coins does not violate the basic principles of muamalah, provided it does not involve usury (riba), uncertainty (gharar), or gambling (maisir). Since the coins function solely as discounts and cannot be converted into cash, they are classified as grants or sharia bonuses. All four schools of thought agree that bonuses for buying and selling are permitted, provided there is no fraud or ambiguity in the contract. This research underscores the need to adapt fiqh law to modern digital innovations and highlights the importance of digital economic fiqh education. By understanding the legal status of digital incentives like Shopee coins, the public can better navigate online transactions and avoid misunderstandings regarding new economic systems.
