REKONSTRUKSI HUKUM ISLAM MELALUI PENDEKATAN KONTESKTUAL: Telaah Komparatif Pemikiran Yudian Wahyudi dan Tariq Ramadan

Abstract

Relevance for Contemporary Islamic Legal Reform. These two approaches offer inspiration and important lessons for
contemporary Islamic legal reform efforts, particularly in the Islamic world facing a deadlock between textual conservatism and secular
modernism. First, Opening Space for Modern and Democratic Ijtihad. The idea of rational and collective ijtihad they espouse is
crucial for opening up space for Islamic law that is relevant to modern, democratic, and multicultural life. Second, Bridging Islam and
the Modern State. Their thinking helps address the tension between Islam and the state, between sharia and the constitution. Both
demonstrate that Islam can exist within the framework of a nation-state (Yudian) or a secular state (Ramadan) without losing its
values. Third, Instilling Universal Islamic Ethics. Legal reform is not simply a matter of changing the wording of fatwas; it must also
address the ethos and universal values of Islam. This is crucial for making Islam a blessing for all the worlds in the global community.
Fourth, Inspiration for the Young Intellectual Generation. Their thinking serves as a starting point for the younger generation of
Muslims to develop an Islam that is open, reflective, and actively involved in building civilization.
