Between Exclusivity and Inclusivity of Institutions: Examining the Role of the Indonesian Ulema Council and Its Political Fatwa in Handling the Spread of Covid-19

The Indonesian Ulema Council (Majelis Ulama Indonesia, MUI) was stigmatised as an institution accommodating conservative Islamic groups’ interests post-New Order. However, the religious fatwas produced by the MUI during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 had prioritised independence so that it returned to its original role, namely as a translator of government policies. For this reason, this article aims to examine the MUI fatwas and its relationship to state policies in tackling the spread of Covid-19. It is a qualitative research study with a historical approach, examining the content of seven fatwas issued by the Fatwa Commission (Komisi Fatwa) between March and July 2020 as the primary data sources. This study found that MUI’s legal arguments and methods are more inclusive, flexible, and progressive towards socio-religious problems. These fatwas have become a reference for the government in taking policies to suppress the spread of Covid-19. It is reinforced by the fact that several fatwas issued by MUI were used as guidelines by the government in formulating policies to curb the spread of Covid-19. Therefore, the authors argue that the MUI’s fatwa politics not only serve the interests of the Muslim community but also align with the state’s interests in tackling the spread of Covid-19. Thus, the debate regarding the stigmatisation of the role of MUI can be dismissed through these findings, providing new insights into the dynamic interplay between religious and legal frameworks.

The development of the times makes a business develop rapidly by using various kinds of marketing and one of them is Multi Level Marketing or what is usually interpreted as multi-level marketing or multi-level marketing. Most companies consider that Multi Level Marketing can bring profits if this system is implemented in them.

And the method used in this research is by using a literature method taken through previous research and then analyzed using MUI Fatwa No. 75 of 2009.

ANALISIS AZAS MANFAAT DAN AKAD PINJAMAN ONLINE DALAM PERSPEKTIF EKONOMI SYARIAH: STUDI LITERATUR

Technological sophistication is overgrowing to make it easier for humans in all their activities. One sector that takes advantage of technological sophistication is financial services. P2P lending refers to the provision of financial services that bring together lenders and loan receivers in the context of engaging into loa and borrowing agreements cia an electronic system that uses the internet network. The ease of the P2P Lending service offered by this online loan is very tempting for users. However, many Muslim people are still unwilling to do so. This study purposes to establish the principle of benefits and online loan agreements from an Islamic economic perspective. This research type is descriptive qualitative research using a systematic literature review. The research data is from 6 journals related to online lending from the perspective of Islamic economics published in 2020-2022. The study results show that online lending, or P2P lending, is a form of financial service utilizing technological sophistication. Online loans are permissible according to Sharia, but with various conditions that do not violate Sharia rules by MUI Fatwa No.117/DSN-MUI/II/2018. The principle of the benefits of giving loans in Islam is permissible to people who need debt to fulfill their needs based on mutual help in good matters. According to the Islamic economy, online loan transactions are classified as accounts payable (Qarḍh). In Islam, qardh is valid if the parties fulfill the conditions and pillars. If one of the conditions and pillars is not fulfilled, the qardh contract becomes invalid. Thus, the debts are considered to have occurred if the pillars and conditions of the debts themselves have been fulfilled.

Positivization of Fatwas of the National Sharia Council of the Indonesian Ulema Council in the Sharia Banking Law: Problems and Challenges

The positivization of DSN MUI's fatwa within Sharia Banking Law ensures compliance with sharia principles. This study examines how DSN MUI incorporates its fatwas into the law and the associated strategies. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with historical, normative, and philosophical methods, primary data include UUPS and MUI fatwas from 2000/2007, while secondary data encompass statutory theory and supportive materials. Findings reveal a methodical and democratic positivization process. Law No. 7 of 1992 marked the onset of Islamic banking via profit-sharing financing. Law No. 10 of 1998 introduced dual banking, while GBHN 1999 and the 1945 Constitutional Amendment further empowered the DPR. DSN MUI was established by MUI to implement Islamic economics. Up to 2007, DSN MUI issued 64 fatwas, formerly non-binding but now legally binding through legislative integration. Although MUI holds a central role in establishing sharia principles, its position remains extrinsic to institutional structures. UUPS designates MUI as a sharia authority (Article 26) and a mass organization simultaneously. DSN MUI plays a pivotal role in supervising sharia compliance in banking products. UUPS absorbs DSN MUI's fatwas, evident in clause alignment with the fatwas. Articles 26 and 32 delineate MUI's role in overseeing sharia compliance. In summary, positivization of DSN MUI's fatwa in Sharia Banking Law implements Islamic law in Indonesia by melding DSN MUI's supervision and determination of sharia principles in banking.

Theory of al- Istiṣlaḥ as the Istinbāt al-Ḥukmi Method on the MUI Fatwa

This article presents a theoretical study of Istiṣlaḥ and also its application to the MUI fatwa of Jambi Province. The four fatwas studied include; fatwas about religious lectures, the bride and groom sitting side by side at wedding receptions, friendship between Muslims and other people, and fatwas about the commemoration of Islamic holidays. The main problem studied is what is the position of Istiṣlaḥ and its application to the MUI fatwa of Jambi Province? This article comes from qualitative phenomenological research which examines the phenomenon of fatwa application using the Istiṣlaḥ paradigm on four cases that are the focus. The results of the research show that in implementing the fatwa with the application of the principles of al-Istiṣlaḥ, the Jambi MUI succeeded in getting out of its attachment to certain schools of jurisprudence. The use of fatwa using Istiṣlaḥ independently is not found in the uṣūl fiqh of the Syafi'i school, nor in the practice of its fiqh issues, while the MUI fatwa uses it. The MUI fatwa continues to follow the patterns and manhaj outlined by sectarian scholars, even though it does not limit itself to certain sects. Artikel ini menyajikan kajian teoretis Istiṣlaḥ dan juga penerapannya pada fatwa MUI Provinsi Jambi. Empat fatwa yang dikaji antara lain; fatwa tentang ceramah agama, pengantin yang duduk bersanding dalam resepsi pernikahan, silaturahmi Umat Islam dengan umat lain, dan fatwa tentang peringatan Hari- hari Besar Islam. Permasalahan utama yang dikaji adalah bagaimana kedudukan Istiṣlaḥ dan aplikasinya pada fatwa MUI Provinsi Jambi? Artikel ini berasal dari penelitian kualitatif fenomenologis yang mengkaji fenomena aplikasi fatwa yang berparadigma Istiṣlaḥ terhadap empat kasus yang menjadi fokus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam penerapan fatwa dengan penerapan prinsip-prisip al- Istiṣlaḥ, MUI Jambi berhasil keluar dari keterikatan terhadap mazhab fiqih tertentu. Penggunaan fatwa dengan menggunakan Istiṣlaḥ secara mandiri tidak ditemukan dalam uṣūl fiqh mazhab Syafi’i, pun dalam praktik masalah fiqihnya, sementara fatwa MUI memakainya. Fatwa MUI tetap mengikuti pola dan manhaj yang digariskan para ulama mazhab, sekalipun tidak membatasi diri pada mazhab tertentu.
