Corak Pemikiran dan Metode Ijtihad Ibn Taymiyyah
Abstract: This article
discusses the thought color and methods of ijtihad of Ibn Taymiyyah, one of the
most influential figures in the movement of of Islamic thought renewal. He
raised a number of criticisms of the logician. The arguments he used indicated
that he is a thinker of empiricism. This empiricism complexion coloring
intellectual works in various fields. In the field of fiqh, in the beginning he
was a follower of the school of Hanbaliyah, however, in further development he
performed ijtihad independently without being tied down by other schools. That
is why Ibn Taymiyya was known as a mujtahid mutlaq. Although in performing
ijtihad he remains grounded in the Qur’an and Sunnah as well as admits the
ijmâ’ and qiyâs as a source of Islamic law, his thoughts are often different
from other scholars of his time, both on the aspect of methodology and the
results of his ijtihad.
