Abstract

This paper described the formulation of Yūsuf al-Qarḍāwī's isntinbāṭ method towards moderate fiqh. The choice of this theme was based on the existence of two demeanours in religion, between permissive and inclusive. Two main questions in this research were, first, how did Yūsuf al-Qarḍāwī formulate the istinbāṭ method for moderate fiqh? Second, how is the implementation of this method in formulating Islamic law? This paper concluded two things through a literature study with the descriptive-analytic method. First, there were six formulations of the istinbāṭ method for the moderation of Islamic law. a. Examining the maqāṣid contained in the text before determining Islamic law, b. Linking texts and Islamic law with texts and other Islamic laws. c. Understanding texts in the frame of asbāb (al-nuzūl or al-wurūd), both micro and macro. d. Distinguishing between constant maqāṣids and changing instruments. e. Adjusting between al-thawābit and al-mutaghayyirāt. f. Observing the difference between worship and mu’āmalah in terms of wisdom, ‘illah and maqāṣid. Second, this method of istinbāṭ could produce fiqh with a flexible, elastic, dynamic, adaptive, and easy-to-practice.

Abstract

Al-Qur’an and Sunnah, needs of understanding and extracting optimally, so that the contents of law can be applied for the benefit of people. The way- to understand and to extract the contents in these two sources- called ijtihād. Thus, ijtihād is needed on istinbāṭ of law from many arguments of the texts (naṣ), eventhough it is qaṭ’ī in which the uṣūliyyūn have agreed that it is not the area for re-extracting to the law (ijtihādiyyah). The problem in this case is that even a qaṭ’ī argument according to the most of uṣūliyyūn has not been qaṭ’ī argument in the other uṣūliyyūn opinion. Reconstruction of ijtihād becomes an alternative, with some considerations: First, weight and tightening the requirements to become a mujtahid, which is almost impossible controlled by someone at the present time; Second, the increasing complexity of the problems faced by the ummat which is very urgent to get the solution; Third, let the period without ijtihād (vacuum of mujtahid) is contrary to the basic principles of Islamic law are always sāliḥ li kulli zamān wa makān. This paper present to discuss further about the urgency of the reconstruction of ijtihād in the challenge of modernity.***Al-Qur’an maupun sunnah sangat membutuhkan pemahaman dan penggalian secara optimal agar isi kandungan hukumnya dapat diterapkan bagi kemaslahatan umat. Cara untuk menggali dan mengeluarkan isi kandungan yang ada dalam kedua sumber tersebut dinamakan ijtihād. Ijtihād sangat dibutuhkan pada setiap istinbāṭ hukum dari dalil naṣ, sekalipun dalil naṣ tersebut bersifat qaṭ'ī yang oleh para uṣūliyyūn sudah di­sepakati tidak menjadi wilayah untuk dijitihadi lagi. Permasalahannya adalah bahwa sesuatu dalil naṣ yang sudah bersifat qaṭ'ī sekalipun oleh sebagian besar uṣūliyyūn, belum tentu dipandang qaṭ'ī oleh sebagian uṣūliyyūn yang lain. Rekonstruksi ijtihād menjadi se­buah alternatif, dengan beberapa pertimbangan: Pertama, berat dan ketatnya persyaratan-persyaratan menjadi seorang mujtahid, yang hampir tidak mungkin di­kuasai oleh seseorang pada masa sekarang; Kedua, semakin kompleksnya per­masalah­an yang dihadapi oleh ummat yang sangat mendesak untuk mendapatkan solusi; Ketiga, membiarkan satu periode tanpa ijtihād (kevakuman mujtahid) adalah bertentangan dengan prinsip dasar hukum Islam yang selalu sāliḥ li kulli zamān wa makān. Tulisan ini hadir untuk mendiskusikan lebih jauh tentang urgensi rekonstruksi ijtihād dalam menghadapi tantangan modernitas.***Keywords: ijtihād, qaṭ'ī, ẓannī, uṣūl al-fiqh

Abstract

This paper aims to describe and analyze the problems and prospects of endowments (perwakafan) in Indonesia, mainly related to the enactment of Law No. 40 of 2004 on Waqf. An analysis of the problems focused on management of waqf properties by waqf institutions that are still traditional and far from productive orientation. The problems on waqf management are triggered by several things, such as: Lack of socialization on fiqh waqf and regulations about waqf from the state; not seriusly management of waqf, the issue of nadzir commitment, weak institutional monitoring system, and problems of funding. The enactment of the Law of Waqf believed to be the initial breakthrough has strategic and significant meaning in order to strengthen the better prospects of waqf institutions in Indonesia for tomorrow. It was at least found on some of the indicators in the Law of Waqf, namely: progressive thinking about productive waqf (cash waqf), institutional strengthening on waqf, structuring the management of waqf administration, and law enforcement of waqf

Abstract

This paper describes the meaning and act of religion-based jihad according to some jihadists in Semarang city. Insisting that the real meaning of Jihad is qitāl (war, to fight) as said by the verse “La hukma Illa lillah” and hadith “faqtulū haythu wajadtumūhum” they, however, still propose another jihad called difā’ (defensive, to survive) for people who cannot meet the requirement of qitāl. The different act of jihad emerges because of its different factors behind such as social, economy, politics, psychology and others. The shift from qitāl to difā’ takes place by the process of humanizing the jihadists using: 1) personal approach by their morally closest men; 2) basic need approach such as economy, existency and peace; 3) religious approach by understanding that what they do is to fully adhere to Islam (kaffah); 4) emotional approach by caring and giving them empathy; 5) social approach by building solidarity to help their comrades.[]Artikel ini mendeskripsikan makna dan perilaku jihad dari para pelaku jihad berbasis agama di Kota Semarang. Makna jihad yang sebenarnya bagi mereka adalah qitāl sebagaimana ayat “la hukma illa lillah” dan hadits “faqtulū haythu wajadtumūhum”, namun jihad difā’ dapat dilakukan bagi yang tidak memenuhi syarat jihad qitāl. Perbedaan perilaku jihad terjadi karena perbedaan faktor yang melingkupinya, yakni faktor sosial, ekonomi, politik, psikologi dan lainnya. Perubahan perilaku jihad (qitāl) menjadi difā’ terjadi karena proses memanusiakan manusia yang dilakukan dengan: 1) pendekatan personil yang dilakukan oleh orang yang dekat secara moril; 2) pendekatan berbasis kebutuhan primer mereka baik ekonomi, eksistensi ataupun rasa aman; 3) pendekatan agama dilakukan dengan memahami apa yang mereka lakukan adalah dalam rangka melakukan Islam secara kaffah; 4) pendekatan emosional dengan memberi perhatian atau empati; 5) pendekatan sosial dengan membangun solidaritas untuk membantu teman-teman seperjuangannya.

Abstract

Issues related to the debate on the application of Islamic law in the contemporary era also contribute to thoughts in this paper. This paper concludes that the transformation of Islamic law into national law is a difficult task. This is because Indonesia is a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, and multi-religious country. The most important reason is due to the variety of Muslim understanding of religious texts

Abstract

This paper discusses the contribution of maṣlaḥah mursalah Imam Maliki to the development of sharia economic law. Maṣlaḥah mursalah is one of the methods of determining Islamic law initiated by Imam Malik. Based on the author's search, there are at least two conclusions about the contribution of the maṣlaḥah mursalah Imam Malik method to the development of Shariah economic law. First, maṣlaḥah mursalah as one of the approach model in ijtihād becomes very vital in the development of sharia economic law and siyāsah iqtiṣādiyyah (economic policy). Because the new problems in the emerging economics in this global world continue to grow, which textually found no proposition in the Qur'an and al-Sunnah. Secondly, the need for fatwas, especially in the fatwa of DSN-MUI, which is based on maṣlaḥah mursalah (kemaslahatan) becomes very urgent. The demands of the times have required the Muslim jurists to see the complexity of the contemporary problem and choose a more convenient (taysir) and avoiding difficulties (al-ḥaraj); And the emergence of new cases requires the existence of ijtihād by considering this maṣlaḥah mursalah aspect.[]Tulisan ini membahas tentang kontribusi maṣlaḥah mursalah Imam Maliki bagi pengembangan hukum ekonomi syari’ah. Maṣlaḥah mursalah merupakan salah satu metode penetapan hukum Islam yang digagas oleh Imam Malik. Berdasarkan penelusuran penulis, setidaknya ada dua kesimpulan mengenai konstribusi metode maṣlaḥah mursalah Imam Malik terhadap pengembangan hukum ekonomi Syari’ah. Pertama, maṣlaḥah mursalah sebagai salah satu model pendekatan dalam ijtihād menjadi sangat vital dalam pengembangan hukum ekonomi syari’ah dan siyāsah iqtiṣādiyiyah (kebijakan ekonomi). Sebab persoalan baru di bidang ekonomi yang muncul dalam dunia global ini terus berkembang, yang secara tekstual tidak ditemukan dalilnya di dalam al-Qur’an dan al-Sunnah. Kedua, kebutuhan fatwa, terutama dalam fatwa DSN-MUI, yang didasarkan atas maṣlaḥah mursalah (kemaslahatan ) ini menjadi sangat urgen. Tuntutan perkembangan zaman mengharuskan para ahli hukum Islam melihat kompleksitas masalah kontemporer dan memilih pandangan yang lebih memudahkan (taysir) dan menghindari kesulitan (al-ḥaraj); dan munculnya kasus-kasus baru mengharuskan adanya ijtihād memper­timbangkan aspek maṣlaḥah mursalah ini.

Abstract

Muslim countries often stuck in a dilemmatic situation between be exclusively with retaining the Islamic principles of human rights through Islamic law or follow the principles of human rights which is regulated internationally through Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The existence of Independent Permanent Commission of Human Rights (IPHRC) as one of the core institutions of organization of the Islamic Cooperation (OIC) intended to be a mediator for the occurrence of constructive dialogue between human rights discourse on one side with Islamic law on the other side. This is the way to reduce dichotomous view that impact on gaps and conflict. The equivalent dialogue continuously between two entities, Islamic law and human rights must always be attempts to open opportunities in more widely shared understanding and in turn will facilitate the achievement of progress and the protection of human rights in Muslim countries. This dialogue also important to remove the negative stigma against Islamic law that is often accused of violating human rights. and also to open space of interpretation to Islamic law that relevance with contemporary life.
