Peta Aliran Jam‘ al-Jawāmi‘ dan Perbandingan Metode Syarah Qiyās dalam Is‘āf al-Muṭāli‘ (Syekh Mahfuzh al-Tarmasi) dan Ṭarīqah al-Ḥuṣūl (KH. Sahal Mahfudh)

Abstract

This article examines the position of Jam‘ al-Jawāmi‘ within the methodological streams of Islamic legal theory and compares the method of explaining qiyās in Is‘āf al-Muṭāli‘ by Shaykh Mahfuzh al-Tarmasi and Ṭarīqah al-Ḥuṣūl by KH. Sahal Mahfudh. The study is significant because the pesantren tradition of commentary and supercommentary is often reduced to textual repetition, whereas it actually contains methodological work involving epistemic choices, pedagogical strategies, and the engagement of Nusantara scholars with the Shafi‘i Ushul fiqh heritage. This library-based study uses a qualitative-descriptive approach and comparative analysis. Primary data are drawn from the two works, while supporting data are limited to the references already used in the original treatise. The findings show that Jam‘ al-Jawāmi‘ predominantly represents the mutakallimīn method through its conceptual definitions, linguistic analysis, and deductive reasoning. Nevertheless, it also includes juristic applications, thereby indicating a moderate synthesis. In explaining qiyās, Is‘āf al-Muṭāli‘ employs an analytical-verificative commentary method, while Ṭarīqah al-Ḥuṣūl adopts a concise, selective, and pedagogical ta‘līq method. Their difference lies not in the substance of qiyās but in their scholarly orientation: conceptual deepening in al-Tarmasi and pedagogical clarification in KH. Sahal.
