ANALYSIS OF THE THOUGHTS OF IMAM AL-SARKHASI AND IMAM IBN RUSHD REGARDING LI'AN IN ISLAMIC LAW

Muhammad Rezky Fauzi

Abstract


The concept of li'ān in Islamic law is a mechanism for resolving adultery allegations from a husband against a wife that cannot be proven through witnesses as a general requirement in Islamic criminal law. Scholars have different views in understanding the nature of li'ān, especially between Imam al-Sarkhasi and Imam Ibn Rushd. This study aims to analyze in depth the opinions of the two scholars, the arguments used, and the causes of the differences in views between the two. The research method used is qualitative research with an exploratory analysis approach, namely analyzing in depth the meaning of li'an from two different perspectives. The data sources used are secondary data sources, namely the Book of al-Mabsuth by Imam al-Sarkhasi and the Book of Bidayatul Mujtahid by Imam Ibn Rushd as well as books and articles based on OJS (Open Journal System) about li'an. Data processing techniques are carried out by processing library materials (library research). The technique in analyzing the data analyzed with exploratory descriptive analysis using reduction, display, and verification techniques. The results of his research are: Imam al Sarkhasi interpreted li'ān as a form of testimony strengthened by an oath, based on a literal understanding of the wording of Surah An-Nur verse 6. On the other hand, Imam Ibn Rushd considered that li'ān is a special form of oath, not testimony in the sense of sharia, because it does not fulfill the elements of ordinary criminal law testimony using the same argument. This difference arises from different methodological approaches, namely the textual approach (zhāhir) of Imam al-Sarkhasi and the contextual-rational approach (ma'nā) of Imam Ibn Rushd. The interpretation of the wording of the verse and the istinbath method are the main factors causing these differences in views, and show the flexibility of Islamic law in responding to complex social and household problems
