PROSES PENGAMBILAN KEPUTUSAN DALAM PERSPEKTIF IBN TAIMIYYAH
ABSTRACT: An important problem
in the discourse of Islamic political study is the problem of decision-making
process within the political order of a country. Does Islam follow a view of
absolutism in the decision making process. How does representative institutions
decision become a constitutional decision. What is the form of consultation can
be done to get the best decision. Almost all forms of Islamic political thought
agree to make syûrâ (consultation system, consulting) as a tool to create a
state decision. Yet, the debate is on the problems that can be decided or
determined through the mechanism of the syûrâ. For Ibn Taymiyyah, people are
the main owners of state power. Determination of choice for power players and
the way of power are completely in the hands of the people. They are the owners
of the leadership in general. They are entitled to elect and dismiss the
leader, as they also decide the broad outlines of state policy that must be
done by him. Moreover, the authority outlines is not on the leader, but on the
whole people. However, the syûrâ is not like the promoted Western liberal
democracy. It has its characteristics, traits and principles.
