Pengaruh doktrin tertutupnya pintu ijtihad terhadap pola pengajaran hukum Islam di pondok pesantren tradisional

The announcement of the closedness of ijtihad (getting Islamic Laws) seemingly gives significant influence on the teaching pattern in traditional islamic dormitories in Indonesia. It can be seen from the teaching pattern of Kitab Kuning particularly the Book of Fiqh (Islamic Law) which is essentially the scientific thought or elaboration of islamic scientist or ulama onto syaria cases (the Holy Quran and Al-Hadith). With the existence of the doctrine of ijtihad closedness, the teaching model applied in traditional islamic dormitories only transfers meanings (getting the meaning of arabic books) and explains the contents without any dialogue or discussion. In addition, it also legitimates the ulama’s dominance or authority, such as what he said must be obeyed and the students or santri have no rights to reconfirm and criticize. Therefore, this journal will reveal the influence of the ijtihad closedness toward the teaching pattern of Islamic law in traditional islamic dormitories. With the positiveness of technology and information advance and the numbers of modern teaching models, there is a promising hope for traditional islamic dormitory to upgrade its teaching pattern and to develop to be more modern without having to break and leave its typical character.
