This study explores the urgency of incorporating Siyasah Syar’iyyah values Islamic principles of governance and law-making into the formulation of national laws. Rooted in Islamic jurisprudence, Siyasah Syar’iyyah offers a pragmatic and ethical framework that prioritizes justice, public welfare, and social harmony. This research analyzes its historical development, relevance, and potential to address contemporary legal challenges in pluralistic and democratic societies. Using a qualitative methodology, the study examines existing literature and legal frameworks to identify synergies and tensions between Islamic values and constitutional democracy. The findings highlight the importance of balancing religious ethics with inclusivity, human rights, and legal pluralism. The study proposes practical recommendations for policymakers and religious authorities to integrate Siyasah Syar’iyyah values effectively without compromising the principles of pluralism and democracy. This research contributes academically to Islamic legal discourse and practically to national legal reform, promoting laws that are both ethically grounded and socially just.
