Abstract

Religion and science are two different things that are believed by some people, especially, from the clergy from the same source, namely God. The offense of the two is always an exciting topic of discussion by scientists. Fiqh or with other terms is called Islamic law as part of the Islamic religion which is also interesting to discuss its offense with science. Means of science in its determination must support the continuity of fiqh in the modern era. This article tries to uncover the relationship between fiqh and science in the realm of epistemology and to examine the two disadvantages in contemporary fiqh in Indonesia. In the realm of epistemology, fiqh and science are human products as subjects. Both are different in taking from the source. Fiqh comes from revelation while science from nature. In essence, fiqh is also a dynamic area in Islamic law though it is possible to be supported by science as a means of achieving relative truth. In practice, fiqh and science experience an offense in the case of contemporary Islamic law in Indonesia. Determination of the direction of the Qibla using modern methods is one of them. Recently, the determination of the Rubella vaccine law through MUI Fatwa No. 33 of 2018 concerning Rubella Vaccine is the implementation of scientific involvement in the determination of fatwas which incidentally are part of fiqh.
