Important task of government is to create a benefit. Thus a fiqh rules guiding and line on the state's obligation to the people they lead. In this context, have our country go in that direction; ditapaki a road to create benefit for the Ummah / people?
One month ago, precisely on Sunday, in mid-March; I still want to explore the city of Jambi, for some observed hue city has changed; I decided to do a little walk from Angso Duo; a shopping area on Market Raya, Jambi to the Mosque at-Taqwa.
This trip made my nose I was panting breathing pollution from automobile exhaust, and motorcycles on the road across this fair, because the user is a motor vehicle in this city growing since last decade, despite the global financial crisis hit, in, ambushed and then tear down the economy joints. But surprisingly, the level of consumption does not seem so affected, this would indicate the center of our country more prosperous soared into the state? I'm not entirely sure. Back on the road; accompaniment of honking cars, motorcycles rumble, I walked slowly among the crowded vehicle, when almost at the intersection of four, close at-Taqwa, my step interrupted or forced to a halt, because I was sitting in front of a man old, paralyzed, and there is a bucket in front of a small, blue, for whatever, but clearly there is a sheet in the dollar's modest size when compared with the savings the new officials' children were born one day. "He", said the residents of this city is a beggar; for me it does not appear as a beggar, but only a poor man, who had frozen on the edge of the street, to earn a coin from people passing replace the role of the state, they subsidize.
Another similar story, but different places; mid-April 2009, I stepped on the foot of Java, "Yogyakarta"; a city where there Ngajogyakarta Palace where the Sultan lives, and are now preparing to sail to the state palace, a white building on the ground buffalo, near the Monas in Jakarta. I'm not really talk about it. Across this; almost every day I crossed the street Urip Sumoharjo, this seems to be a routine I am today, and whether for some future time I enjoy, thunder engine, the car, which seemed in a hurry through the streets of this Sumoharjo Urip. A Panorama of aberrant, because I no longer find the bike that became Ontel images of Dagadu clothes, which I used to look at the clothes my friends.
Technology community has now replace ontel community in Yogyakarta. Ironically, while in Jambi beggar lying in the streets, though not too much, in Yogya is also lined. Even a little more severe, beggars, there are also beggars sleeping on the patio shops whose numbers could be counted on the fingers along the road Urip Sumoharjo and probably many other corner in the city of Yogyakarta. Same mode, they are a tax collector replace the role of the state from the hands of a few people have money, it appropriate?
Understanding this phenomenon I recall the core of the Panca Dahana Radhar writings, entitled "let's subsidize the state", in a mass media. Same object, when Radhar Panca Dahana angkot from home up to their work place, he dibrendel by singers singing voice is a snap, as well as beggars who turn their hands, palms up to show a dingy, filled with cash for the rupiah; Radhar Panca Dahana, concluded when we give them money, so we've replace the role of the state to subsidize the poor and abandoned children, as embodied in the body of the Constitution-1945. Is the state should guarantee a decent living in abandoned children, these poor people as mandated by the 1945 Constitution.
Around us, people lined up, the common people, who considered the poor by the state; the people who earn 5000 to 10,000 rupiah per day, or even less, these categories are defined by the BPS; a statistical agency of the State. True or not, that obviously the people who earn in the range must be willing to say it was poor. So if so many poor people in this country, What is the state?
A new country prosperous say if he had reached the indicators set by developed countries through economic growth theory, such a high level of consumption, use of technology, leisure (leisure times). This is different from the established indicators of Islam. For Islam, as embodied in the hierarchical formation of the Hanafi jurisprudence, Shafi'i, and Maliki; benefit occupy an important locus, he became an indicator in the development of law, economics, and politics in a country. Legitimate state is said to be prosperous if the country could not realize the benefit for the Ummah / people.
So far, we, especially the state "ignorant" linking political objectives, based on the theory of economic benefit (al-muslahah al-mursalah). This can be ditelisik from berjejernya poverty, famine, beggars, abandoned children, malnutrition, unemployment, literacy.
"Raiyatu al-Imam manutun la maslahah"; a universal theory that is parallel to the ethics of happiness that is triggered by Aristotle, "manifest public interest", such as encouraging people achieve happiness, as measured by achievement level of health, education, economic subsistence. But a little more advanced, the flow of jurisprudence, the benefit is not only measured by the achievement of material, but also the spiritual dimension to the benefits inherent in them. There guarding religion, soul, intellect, lineage, and property in the benefit theory pioneered by figures in the Islamic Jurisprudence.
Ash-Syatibi for example, emphasized the benefit must be realized, without the benefit of growth and development of material and spiritual will not be realized. This then is the basic argument, that the political cycle, and economic regulation, any rule of law will at least be meaningful and capable of altering the energy of a state and nation, if only the system, a culture driven by his elementary walked with the spirit of this benefit. Without this, Wallahu A'lamu bishshawab.
