Keywords:
Trilogy of Islamic Teachings, Aqidah, Sharia, Morals, Implementation of Islamic Law, Maqashid ShariaAbstract
This study examines the role of the trilogy of Islamic teachings of aqidah , sharia , and morals as a conceptual and practical basis in the application of Islamic law. In the context of contemporary Islamic legal science, there is a tendency to formalize and separate the normative aspect (sharia) from the theological (aqidah) and ethical (morals) dimensions, which has the potential to reduce the integrity and substantive justice of Islamic law. This study aims to reveal how this trilogy of Islamic teachings is rooted in the Qur'an and Hadith, how scholars view the integration of the three, and how the role of this trilogy becomes an important foundation in the process of formulating and implementing just and beneficial Islamic law. This study uses a normative legal research method with a descriptive approach, based on literature studies. Data sources come from primary and secondary literature, including the Qur'an, Hadith, fiqh books, works of classical and contemporary scholars, and academic literature related to Islamic law. Data analysis is carried out qualitatively with a philosophical and historical approach. The results of the study show that the trilogy of aqidah, sharia, and morals has a strong foundation in the sources of Islamic teachings, and is viewed by scholars across eras as a single, inseparable value system. The integration of the three plays an important role in forming Islamic law that is not only legal-formal, but also full of spiritual and ethical dimensions. The application of Islamic law based on this trilogy is able to present a legal system that is more just, humane, and in accordance with the maqashid sharia, and is more relevant in responding to the challenges of globalization and secularization of law today.
