Abtsract: The trend of women³s active participation in religious extremism phe- nomenon has become a serious global threat, including for Southeast Asian coun- tries such as Indonesia and Malaysia. This paper aims to offer a fiqh approach in the form of wasa‚iyyah in order to reinforce counter-laws of religious extremism, especially on the issue of Malaysian women³s involvement in the Daesh extremist group (al-Dawlah al-Isl¤miyyah f‡ al-‹Ir¤q wa al-Sh¤m). Through library and field research, this paper concludes that an approach of fiqh wasa‚iyyah, which is based on the reality of law and the reality of religious extremism, can be developed. This research is hoped to assist various parties, especially the Malaysian govern- ment, to improve existing deradicalization process and strengthen the efforts to re- straint religious extremism in the grassroots.

The Fiqh Wasa’iyyah Approach Towards the Involvement of Malaysian Women . . .

Abstrak: Trend keterlibatan wanita secara aktif dalam gejala ekstremisme agama telah menjadi ancaman serius di tingkat global, termasuk di wilayah Asia Tenggara seperti Indonesia dan Malaysia. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menawarkan pendekatan fiqh wasa‚iyyah untuk menguatkan usaha counter- hukum paham ekstremisme agama khususnya mengenai isu keterlibatan wanita Malaysia dalam kelompok ekstremis Daesh (ad-Dawlah al-Isl¤miyyah f‡ al-›Ir¤q wa al-Sh¤m). Dengan menggabungkan antara kajian pustaka dan lapangan, tulisan ini menyimpulkan bahwa pendekatan fiqh yang bersifat wasa‚iyyah berdasarkan realitas hukum dan realitas ekstremisme agama dapat dikembangkan. Dengan demikian, tulisan ini diharapkan dapat membantu berbagai pihak khususnya pemerintah Malaysia dalam proses deradikalisasi dan mengukuhkan usaha pembendungan paham ekstremisme agama di tingkat akar rumput.
