| Summary: | Among the masterpieces of religious tradition of Prophet S.A.W. is the ability
to cope with the events and developments and to absorb the diversity of temporal and
spatial conditions, in line with the Islamic verses. Ijtihad is the duties of sufficiency
that ones have to bear them. Therefore, whoever intends to close the door of Ijtihad has
erred, since the issues of mankind changeable from day to day. Although there are
small number of Ijtihad individually but there are Ijtihad collectively that played big
role in finding solutions which arise among people. This study discussed the issues of
producing Mujtahid, in terms of qualification and youthness, according to the stipulated
conditions. The study found that it is important to have selection of qualified person to
become mujtahid as well as the selected tests and interviews with high accuracy, so that
they could overcome the obstacles and challenges later. The study also found that there
should have a concern on the important learning system in producing mujtahid and the
Islamic heritage as well. |
