| Summary: | The term takyif fiqhi stands for one crucial concept in Islamic jurisprudence and refers to one of the important steps in the process of formulating fatwÉ. It basically revolves around the categorization of particular issues under the appropriate rules and precedents established in Islamic juristic thought. The present article attempts to examine the concept of takyif fiqhi in a comprehensive manner in terms of its meaning, authority, types, importance, and governing criteria as can be gleaned from the works of Shari'ah scholars. This is then followed by an exploration of its application to modern contracts, taking as a case study the Central Provident Fund Nomination in Singapore. The article concludes with the view that the Central Provident Fund Nomination, in terms of its essential characteristics and objective, resembles the Islamic will contract as discussed in books of Islamic Jurisprudence.

Istilah Takyīf Fiqhī merupakan satu konsep penting dalam Perundangan Islam dan salah satu langkah utama dalam proses penggubalan fatwa. Pada dasarnya, takyīf fiqhī merujuk kepada pengkategorian isu-isu tertentu di bawah hukum dan duluan yang sesuai di dalam Perundangan Islam. Artikel ini mengkaji konsep takyīf fiqhī dengan secara komprehensif dari sudut pengertian, autoriti, pembahagian, kepentingan dan kriteria, yang diambil daripada tulisan para ulama Shariah. Ini kemudian diikuti dengan usaha menerokai aplikasinya kepada akad-akad baru, mengambil Nominasi Tabung Simpanan Pekerja (CPF) sebagai kajian kes. Artikel ini menyimpulkan bahawa Nominasi CPF, dari sudut ciri-ciri asas dan objektifnya, menyerupai akad wasiat sebagaimana yang dibincangkan di dalam buku-buku Perundangan Islam. |
