Tipologi Nalar Fiqh Wakaf dalam Bahth al-Masa’il NU
Abstract: Many argued that the
NU discourse concerning the idea of endowment is rather static and textual.
This can be seen particularly from the so-called Bahth al-Masâ’il, the
discussion forum being held regularly by the NU to address various legal issues
faced by the community. The forum often comes to no veil. Since 1998 however,
the younger generation of the NU initiated the idea of reading the classical
thought in contextual terms. This paper addresses this issue by mapping out the
typology of NU thinking particularly regarding the notion of endowment. This
typology is drawn up from the Bahth al-Masâ’il being held from 1926-2006, and
found that there are at least four types of thinking within the organization.
First, the restrictivetextual thinking, which looks at the issue of endowment
by referring to the Shafi‘ite classical works; second, the electivetextual
thinking, which tends to select the most preferable view on a particular issue
of endowment; and third, progressive-contextual thinking, which tends to employ
the method of collective ijtihâd. The paper discusses these three variants by
explaining their characteristics and development.
