This handbook aims to provide an overview of the principles governing the
issuance of fatwa based on darurah and their applications in Islamic
finance. It seeks to enhance understanding of the concept of fatwa within
Islamic jurisprudence, encompassing both traditional and contemporary
contexts.
The handbook highlights critical issues in fatwa issuance, emphasizing the
importance of adhering to specific criteria to ensure the highest level of
accuracy. To this end, it categorizes the conditions and parameters of fatwa
according to its essential pillars. For a fatwa to effectively serve society
while aligning with Sharīʿah principles, it should be issued by institutions
through collective ijtihad.
The handbook includes a brief comparison between traditional fatwa
issuance and the institutional approach, particularly in the context of
Islamic finance, to identify developments and potential gaps. It also
highlights that when fatwas are authorized by the ruler of the state, this
authority enables decisions that can resolve disagreements and address
diversity in these matters.
