Pengaruh Empat Mazhab terhadap Perkembangan Fikih Modern

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of the four major schools of 
Islamic jurisprudence Hanafi, Maliki, Syafi’i, and Hanbali which play a 
significant role in shaping the framework of Islamic legal thought up to 
the modern era. This research uses a literature study method by 
examining various sources such as books, journals, and classical as well 
as contemporary scholarly works that discuss the methodological 
development of each school. Although these schools emerged during 
the classical period, the legal reasoning methods they developed 
continue to serve as the main foundation for responding to various 
contemporary issues, particularly in social, economic, and 
technological fields. This study examines how the thoughts, 
methodologies, and contributions of the four schools provide a 
substantial influence on the development of modern Islamic law. The 
discussion focuses on the patterns of legal derivation of each school, 
their relevance to contemporary issues, and the extent to which their 
teachings remain significant in today’s Islamic legal context. Thus, this 
study emphasizes that the contributions of the four schools are not 
merely historical but also play a crucial role in shaping Islamic 
jurisprudence that is adaptive, inclusive, and relevant in the 
contemporary era.
