Konsep Mantuq dan Mafhum dalam Perspektif Ushul Fiqih

Abstract

The interpretation of the verses of the Qur’an is an important element in understanding the meaning and purpose of the teachings conveyed. Because the Qur'an often uses terms that may be difficult to understand or different from the understanding of society in its descendant period, proper interpretation is needed so that the message and law contained can be understood comprehensively. This research aims to examine the concepts of mantuq and mafhum, two important rules in the proposal of fiqh that help reveal the express and implied meanings in the Qur'an. The research method used is library research with a qualitative approach. The result of this study is that a proper understanding of these two concepts helps to avoid errors in the interpretation and application of sharia law. In addition, the application of the concepts of mantuq and mafhum is relevant to respond to contemporary problems while still referring to the basic principles of sharia.
