| Summary: | The dietary guidance taught by the Prophet (PBUH), as contained in his hadiths,
is part of Islamic legislation. Shariah, as widely known, comprises the Qur’an,
the Sunnah, qiyas (analogical reasoning), and ijma' (consensus of scholars). All
these sources encompass objectives and wisdom, collectively referred to as
maqāṣid al-sharīᶜah. The question that arises is how the dietary guidance taught
by the Prophet (PBUH) can be linked to maqāṣid al-sharīᶜah. This study aims
to examine and analyze the maqāṣid al-sharīᶜah embedded in the dietary
guidance of the Prophet (PBUH), or more precisely, his diet. The research
employs a qualitative approach, using a library-based method to gather data
relevant to the topic. The findings reveal that the Prophet’s dietary practices
encompass legislative wisdom closely related to the Kulliyyat al-Khams (the
five fundamental principles of maqāṣid al-sharīᶜah): the preservation of
religion, life, intellect, wealth, and lineage. The study is further supported by
scientific evidence related to nutrition, which reinforces the relevance of the
Prophet’s dietary guidance in the context of maqāṣid al-sharīᶜah. |
