The Application of Maqasid in Contemporary Reality
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research addresses the application of Maqasid in contemporary reality, as a manifestation of the activation of the Maqasid of Sharia in dealing with modern events and incidents, by directing ijtihad, fatwas, and jurisprudential implementation in a way that achieves people’s interests and wards off harm. The concept of “the application of objectives” was established, its definition and position in the thought of the principles of jurisprudence were explained, along with mentioning its methodological controls. The research then reviewed the most prominent applications of Maqasid in the fields of fatwa, judiciary, Islamic politics, family, and finance, supporting this with practical examples and contemporary jurisprudential decisions issued by academic assemblies. The research concludes with the importance of expanding the application of objectives in contemporary ijtihad, with the necessity of regulating it with scientific controls, ensuring a balance between the text and its spirit, and the interest and its legal restrictions.
