- Abstract
This article discusses the concept of Maqashid al-Syariah in the context of understanding and developing Islamic law. Maqashid al-Syariah refers to the aim of implementing Islamic law and has become the basis for the science of ushul fiqh. This article reviews the history of Islamic legal thought before and after the concept of Maqashid al-Syariah emerged. The importance of understanding Maqashid al-Syariah in understanding and developing Islamic law is emphasized, with an emphasis on social changes that influence ijtihad, or the formation and development of Islamic law. The concept of Maqashid al-Syariah is closely related to the five basic elements of human life: religion, soul, heredity, reason, and property. This article describes the three levels of Maqashid, namely daruriyaat, hajiyaat, and tahsiniyaat, as well as divisions based on worldly and ukhrawi orientation. Understanding and using Maqashid al-Syariah in ijtihad is key in dealing with various social problems and phenomena developing in modern society. This article outlines how this concept can help Islamic law to remain relevant and adapt to changing times.
