DYNAMICS OF COMPARATIVE JURISPRUDENCE IN DETERMINING ISLAMIC FAMILY LAW IN INDONESIA: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE SHAFI’I AND HANAFI SCHOOLS

Deri Eka Putra, Era Zufialina

Abstract


This study aims to analyze the comparative dynamics of Islamic jurisprudence in shaping Islamic family law in Indonesia, with a focus on the Shafi'i and Hanafi schools of thought. The urgency of this research stems from the fact that family law practices in Indonesia, historically and normatively rooted in the Shafi'i school, face various contemporary challenges that necessitate flexibility and alternative approaches. However, comparative studies examining the potential contributions of the Hanafi school as a reference for ijtihad in addressing modern issues remain limited, resulting in a research gap that needs to be addressed. This study employs a literaturebased methodology, conducting a comparative analysis of primary and secondary Islamic jurisprudence texts, laws and regulations, and relevant academic studies. The findings indicate that differences in legal istinbāṭ methodologies between the two schools offer diverse approaches to family law issues such as guardianship, divorce, maintenance, and marriage contracts. These results suggest that selectively integrating approaches from the Hanafi school has the potential to enrich the practice of Islamic family law in Indonesia, particularly in addressing contemporary challenges that require adaptive and contextually informed legal solutions.
