Abstract

This article aims at building Fiqh (Islamic Jurisprudence) from which Islamic education system would be operating to de-radicalization. As the study of the Shari'ah (Islamic Law and rules), the whole corpus of Fiqh is about the interpretation of the Holy Qur'an and the Sunnah (the practice and tradition of Muhammad PBUH) through the process of independent reasoning (Ijtihad) carried out by qualified Islamic scholar/s (ulama). Therefore, this study begins to consider the overall operation of formulating Islamic Law that should become the purpose of Allah and His Messenger. Meanwhile, the way achieving Islamic Law, among other things, is oriented to produce mashlahah (wisdom) for making better and improving the prosperity of the ummah both in the world and Hereafter. For this reason, the task of ulama is to comprehend the Muslim society and related things entail to contemporary life demands. Although thinking much more thoroughly, Ulama's independent reasoning results in diversity. Thus, Fiqh is dynamic; supporters of certain ulama with certain Fiqh schools are those who are fanatical. Through the efforts of education, such extremism and radicalism can be reduced (applied to de-radicalization) through the Fiqh itself. In Fiqh education, a curriculum that includes selected and non-selected teaching materials play an essential role likewise educators who organize schools instructions. It should remove religious extremism including fanaticism, intolerance, rigidity, and narrow-mindedness gradually. Fiqh materials provided at Islamic schools should aim at attaining mashlahah through which peace, unity, justice, equality, and capacity. It should able to suppress all kinds of violence, and order would flower among students participants of Islamic schools.
