Perspectives On The Use Of Qiyas Between Imam Bukhari And Imam Syafie

The issue of applying fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) in today's society highlights the need for a method that can harmonize the adaptation of Quranic and Hadith texts with changing times. Qiyas (analogical reasoning) is considered effective, especially in addressing new and complex issues where clear guidance from the Quran and Sunnah is lacking. Without Qiyas, Islamic law would struggle to keep up with evolving customs and modern dynamics. Since Qiyas is one of the key method today, alternative approaches are needed to assist in forming ijtihad (independent reasoning) to resolve new legal issues. This study aims to explain the differences and similarities in the use of Qiyas in ijtihad by Imam Bukhari and Imam Syafi'e through a qualitative analysis of relevant books and articles. The findings reveal that Imam Bukhari's use of Qiyas was limited to Qiyas Jali (clear analogy), while Imam Syafi'e also favored Qiyas Jali and rejected Qiyas Khafiy (hidden analogy), aligning with Imam Bukhari's approach despite differences in their Usul Fiqh methods. This study provides a new perspective differences opinion on Qiyas, offering insights into its use in ijtihad and opening alternative opportunities from Imam Bukhari's perspective, which can be considered alongside Imam Syafi'e's approach in modern discussions of Islamic law.
