Al-Syatibi Approach in Fatwa Standardizations and its Effect of States’ Fatwa Committee

Abstract

Al-Syatibi is a figure and has written extensively on the understanding of the sources of Islamic law to make ijtihad union. Among them is connecting maqasid sharia element (Islamic law objectives) into a source of legal referrals. The difference of ijtihad/fatwa among the mujtahid can produce a negative effect on society. Although generally a difference of view can bring benefits, but lately the opposite occurs. The attitude of some extreme to the figure leads to fray and misleading other community members. Thus, studies on the methodology of al-Syatibi were done to see the adaptation stage of his ideas to the administration of Islam in Malaysia. The study examined the theory by al-Syatibi with the literature review and discusses the situation of the difference legal/fatwa in Malaysia by linking State Fatwa Committee role by review of documents and interviews. This effort is by reference the provisions of written law at the state level. The study found the methodology of al-Syatibi towards the standardisation of legal practised through administrative approaches and drafting legislation.
