Abstract

: Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) is flexible and open to respond to the dynamics of time. This paper aims to reveal the Indonesian Islamic jurisprudence implementation from the perspective of the objectives of Islamic law (maqashid al-syari’ah). Using historical and social analysis, this study finds that Indonesian Islamic jurisprudence has been adapted to the Indonesian people’s cultural values. Here, maqashid al-syari’ah perspective is used to resolve seemingly conflicting arguments and establish laws for the cases which are linguistically not covered within Al-Qur’an and Hadith. The findings of this study imply that the Indonesian Islamic jurisprudence does not contradict the Islamic law sources.
