Summary: | This research aims at the study of taisir (facilitation) in shaikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi's fiqh of Muslim minorities (fiqh al-'aqalliyyat al-muslima) by investigating
his fatawa (legal opinions), characterized by an extremely relaxed view, regarding
Muslim minority societies. The study discusses the shaikh’s brief biography, which is
full of intellectual movements, and his role in the formulation of fiqh of Muslim
minorities and the resolution of their problems. The study also attempts to elucidate the
terminology of the fiqh of Muslim minorities, and explain its characteristics and
problems. The study establishes the point that Muslim minorities are part and parcel of
the Muslim ummah. The study further presents the most important standards of
facilitation laid down by the shaikh through the investigation of the most significant
methodological principles followed by him, as adopted in his books of fiqh and usul.
The researcher found that al-maslahah al-mursalah and al-'urf are the most important
references in this fiqh. Moreover, the researcher attempts to investigate the meaning of
taisir and to give a firm foundation from the Qur’an, sunnah, and the reports of his
companions (athar). The research argues that although there is measure of facilitation,
and flexibility in Islam, thus does not permit one to follow his wishes (hawa), and
simultaneously availing the concessions awarded by different madhhabs (tatabbu' al-rukhas). As for the applicative side of the shaikh's discourse on the subject, the research
dealth with the shaikh’s method of taisir, as offered in his fatawa, which led to on
outcry in some parts of the Muslim world e.g. his permission for an American Muslim
soldier to fight the Muslims in Afghanistan. This research also argues that the
difficulties of life and the spiritual weakness of Muslims in general and the Muslim
minorities in particular, resulting from the lack of religious education, demands a
restrained taisir towards resolving their problems, in order to avoid hardship in the
Muslim community. In the treatment of such difficulties, shaikh al-Qaradawi is
considered the most courageous mufti in granting concessions and relaxations in order
to keep the life of Muslim minorities within the boundaries of religion, even if this place
them at the fringe of that boundary. To illustrate this, the study chose examples of the
shaikh's legal opinions on the issues of faith ('aqaid), worship ('ibadat), family (usrah),
business (mu'amalat), and customs ('adat). The study compared the shaikh's legal
opinions with those of the scholars of the past and present, and choose those that are
based on stronger reasoning in the light of the objectives of the Islamic law. |
