Pemikiran Ekonomi Islam Abu Ishaq Al Syatibi

The economic ideas of the great Islamic jurist Abu Ishaq al-Syatibi are discussed in this article. Syatibi is most known for his formulation of the maqashid al-syari'ah, or goals of Islamic law.  Using primary and secondary sources found in library databases, the study takes a descriptive-analytical approach to history.  The results show that when it comes to fiscal measures like taxes, government expenditure, and minimum wage legislation, al-Syatibi stresses that maslahah (public interest) should be the primary aim of economic policy.  Efficient, fair, and sharia-compliant economic policies that take into account society's main, secondary, and supplementary requirements are essential, says al-Syatibi.  Even if it differs from more contemporary need theories like Maslow's hierarchy of requirements, al-Syatibi's maqashid al-syari'ah succeeds in meeting fundamental human needs by highlighting the role of religion.  Contributing significantly to the growth of Islamic economics, al-Syatibi's ideas highlight a middle ground between material and spiritual well-being.
