Abstract

Political party is a national organization established by groups of people who have commonality in ideology. In the Qur’an, the term party is called hizb. Linguistically, it means a community that has the same concepts, direction, purpose and activities; a group that has strength and brotherhood. The main question in this research is how is the role of political parties according to the Indonesian law? And what is the standpoint of Islamic law towards the function of political parties in Indonesia? This study is a library research using a normative juridical approach. In conclusion, the function of political parties is under the governance principles structured by the Prophet Muhammad, based on the Qur’anic verses, namely the equality principle (almusawwa), the independent principle (alhurriyah), and the pluralism principle (taaddudiyah). In carrying out its role and function according to Indonesian law, and correlated with Islamic law, there are three stages. Thefirst is intensive development stage (tasqifmurakkazah) compatible with party principles, namely as a medium of political recruitment and political education for the inhabitants. The second is interaction stage (taha’ul) referred to as a means of socialization and political communication for the community. The third is acceptance of power stage (istilamulhukmi).
