Objective: This study aims to explore the intersection of gendered resilience, Islamic legal maxims, and pandemic responses within the context of Indonesia's environmental and societal challenges. It seeks to understand how Islamic jurisprudence and gender dynamics can shape effective responses to crises, particularly in a nation grappling with diverse socio-environmental issues. Theoretical Framework: The research is grounded in the theoretical framework of gender studies and Islamic legal theory. It employs a gender-sensitive lens to examine how Islamic legal principles (maqasid al-sharia) can be applied to foster resilience amidst crises. The study also incorporates environmental sociology to contextualize the socio-ecological challenges faced by Indonesia. Method: Through qualitative methods, including content analysis of religious, legal texts, and case studies, the research examines practical applications of Islamic legal principles in crisis response. Results and Discussion: Findings reveal that gender-sensitive interpretations of Islamic legal maxims improve community resilience and pandemic responses by fostering equitable resource distribution. The study highlights successful case studies and discusses integration challenges in policymaking. Research Implications: Integrating gender perspectives into Islamic legal frameworks can enhance policy and resilience strategies, offering a model for similar contexts in Muslim-majority countries. Originality/Value: This study contributes to the limited body of literature on the nexus of gender, religion, and crisis management in Indonesia. It offers a novel perspective by integrating Islamic legal theory with gender studies, providing valuable insights for scholars, and practitioners aiming to enhance resilience through culturally relevant frameworks.
