Abstract

This study is motivated by the urgency of integrating maqashid syariah (the higher objectives of Islamic law) into the issuance of Islamic economic fatwas by the Indonesian National Sharia Council. Although maqashid syariah is often regarded as the soul of Islamic law, there is no assurance that its principles serve as the actual methodological foundation in contemporary fatwa development. The aim of this research is to critically analyze the urgency and role of maqashid syariah in The National Sharia Council of the Indonesian Ulema Council fatwa processes, identify the extent to which these principles are embedded in economic fatwas, and assess their alignment with the realities of Islamic economic practices in Indonesia. This study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, collecting data from scholarly publications, fatwa documents, and related literature concerning maqashid, fatwas, and Islamic economics. The data are descriptively presented in the results section and analytically discussed in the discussion section. The findings reveal that maqashid syariah is still predominantly treated as a normative supplement rather than a core epistemological framework in the fatwa-making process. The study concludes that a gap exists between the ideal vision of maqashid syariah and the institutional practice of The National Sharia Council of the Indonesian Ulema Council fatwas, indicating the need for a more integrative and context-sensitive methodological reform. This research contributes to strengthening maqashid-based frameworks in Islamic economic policy and offers new directions for the reform of contemporary Islamic legal thought.
