Qawlī approach to solve legal problems, especially contemporary problems, needs to be strengthened and complemented with a manhaji approach. The existence of ushul al-fiqh which have only become supplementary tools to understand the works of classical fiqh, need to be improved to more applicable. Therefore, ushul al-fiqh ul will have direct relevance to the Muslims lives. This paper attempts to offer ushul al-fiqh manhajī which functions to develop the thought of Contemporary Islamic Law. In this paper ushul al-fiqh manhajī will be parsed, departing from classic ushul al-fiqh, the characteristics of ushul al-fiqh manhajī, the contemporary understanding of Islamic law, and the idea of progressive fiqh to face the growing age. It can be understood that ushul al-fiqh manhajī means ushul al-fiqh following the methodology of ulama thought, not the product of their thought. Following the methodology may result in the same or different product. Thinking methodologically means avoiding textuality an sich without studying its philosophical-methodological aspects. In conclusion, ushul al-fiqh manhajī is an offer to develop the thought of Contemporary Islamic Law.Keywords: Ushul al-Fiqh, M anhajī, ContemporaryIslamic law, Qawli

This article analyzes the concept of good governance from the perspective of contemporary thought of Islamic law. Good governance is a new concept in islamic legal discourse, but an important one for preventing abuse of power. Good governance is understood to be applied in government and bureaucracy. Clean government should be effective, efficient, transparent, honest and accountable. This can be executed by using all available resources (human, social, culture, politics and economy) for the welfare of the community. Because of this noble goal, good governance is a must, from the perspective of Islamic law. The effort to realize welfare for the community by the state is in line with Islamic law. On the other hand, there is arguably no corresponding textual references from al-Qur’an or Hadith on the issue of good governance. Therefore the concept of mashlahah mursalah is employed since it highly built upon the accommodation of human welfare as it is the main mission of Islam.  Abstrak: Tulisan ini menguraikan upaya good governance dengan sudut pandang hukum Islam kontemporer. Good governance merupakan gerakan ijtihâdiyyah dalam mewujudkan pemerintahan yang baik untuk menegasikan penyalahgunaan kekuasaan yang terjadi di dunia, khususnya di Indonesia. Good governance diartikan sebagai tata kelola pemerintahan yang bersih dan baik. Pemerintahan yang bersih adalah pemerintahan yang efektif, efisien, transparan, jujur, dan bertanggung jawab, sedangkan pemerintahan yang baik adalah pemerintahan negara yang berkaitan dengan sumber sosial, budaya, politik, serta ekonomi diatur sesuai dengan kekuasaan yang dilaksanakan pada masyarakat. Berdasarkan hukum Islam kontemporer, penerapan good governance di Indonesia harus dilakukan. Metode pencapaian kesejahteraan dalam bernegara dengan berbagai pemasalahan kontemporer yang timbul menyertainya harus disikapi secara hukum. Di sisi lain, secara tekstual, nas-nas syariat tidak menyikapi semua permasalahan yang timbul tersebut secara spesifik, maka mashlahah mursalah dapat dipertimbangkan sebagai salah satu metode ijtihad kontemporer untuk mengakomodasi kemaslahatan manusia dalam penerapan good governance, karena Islam datang sebagai rahmat bagi alam semesta.

This paper tries to explain the legal policy of the law carried out by the Indonesian government about zakat which is an obligation for capable Muslims as a manifestation of human empathy to others in need. Zakat has a noble goal, namely to alleviate poverty and eliminate social inequality in society. This objective is in line with one of the objectives of the Indonesian government which has been mandated in the opening of the 1945 Constitution, namely to advance public welfare. Thus, the management of zakat in Indonesia will be better, if implemented by the government, given that zakat is a very potential source of funds that can be used for public welfare for all Indonesian people. This article explains the process of formulating zakat laws in Indonesia, the substance of Islamic law in zakat, and the purpose of the Law (maqa>s}id al-risa>lah) about zakat in Indonesia, so that readers can fully comprehend the purpose of zakat law.

Perdebatan agama dan sains seolah tak kunjung habis-habisnya. Sains dan teknologi merupakan unsur utama dalam kemajuan peradaban manusia menuju terbentuknya masyarakat berbasis pengetahuan.Namun, sains tanpa agama adalah timpang (lame), sedangkan agama tanpa sains adalah gelap (blind). Kehidupan manusia memerlukan arah dan pedoman. Sains tidak bertentangan dengan Islam, karena falsafah dan dasar-dasar teori serta formula yang dipakai oleh sains ternyata bersumber dari al-Qur'an dan hadith. Dalam tulisan ini penulis mencoba membahas kajian agama dan sains dengan menelaah buku karya Nidhal Guessoum, kemudian dianalisis dengan pendekatan fenomenologi (phenomenological sociology). [The religion and science debate seem unrelenting. Science and technology are key element in the progress of human civilization towards the established of a knowledge-based society.

In this paper the author tries to discuss the study of religion and science in which the author examines the [404] Kontemplasi, Volume 04 Nomor 02, Desember 2016 book by Nidhal Guessoum, then analyzed with a phenomenological approach.
